This is gonna be weird, i thought as we rode getting closer to our target which that's the weird part he's hiding out in Brooklyn mind you is my home town.

Something on your mind Will? Rose said looking at me, heh no nothing just letting my mind wander, hey look there's the Brooklyn bridge! I say happily which i don't know why considering the city's in ruin.

 The golden gate is better, Duke said which reminded me that's where he's from. I'll take your word now lets go we don't have much daylight left and finding a needle in a haystack is hard enough with light. After saying that we spent the next two hours searching the city....i'd go into more detail but it was super boring.

 Hmm i could of swore i saw a figure moving away from that window, Rose said and when she says she sees something there's something there. Lets go that may be him! I ordered getting off my cycle and running twords the building, after searching the building for another twenty minutes we found not only the man but a little girl too only about six years old.

 Are you Harold Drake? i asked lowering my visor, yes the man replied if you're here for the core i won't talk! He shouted while trying to stand up that's when i noticed his leg was bloody and looked broken. No we're here to help you...and for the core but mainly to help you, good he said as he sighed in relief.

 So you do know where the core is yes? Of corse, he replied almost as if he was answering my prayers. Alright good now lets get you two out of here, i say helping him up and putting his arm over my shoulder.

Hang on we've got company, Rose said looking out the window. Damn they must of been watching us! i yell, we're gonna have to fight our way out of here Duke said readying his fists. No you won't make it out not with me dragging you down, there's an emergency exit on the floor above this one please take my daughter and get out of here she knows the location too.

 He said pulling out one of my grenades and sitting back on the floor, no we can save you both c'mon! No my leg is broken and im dying anyways....please just take her she's the only thing i have and i won't let her suffer or die in a hell hole like this.

 I understand we will and i promise you she will be taken care of and i'll make sure she has a good life, i say cletching my fists.

 Thank you, i want you to go with these people okay sweetheart and you do whatever they say. Okay daddy she says giving him a hug not knowing that it will be the last one, c'mon lets go i say bending down to let her climb on my back. Okay mister, she climbs on and then we head off not looking back.

 After getting out of the building we hear a sound that we've all heard before but this time it was different, the explosion of a grenade....but with the user still holding it. Your sacrifice won't be in vain, i think as we rush to our cycles and ride off as fast as possible.

 I can't believe he did that, Rose said looking back at the now burning and crumbling building. He made his choice now we need to honor it, i said trying not to look back as well. Crap looks like there was more of them! Duke yelled as a group of cydroid riders came out from the allys.

 Quick this way! I yell turning down an ally that leads to my old neighborhood. We can lose them through here! sadly my memory kinda sucks...as i forgot that this area only has one way out and that's the way we came.

Dammit we're trapped! You had one job Will one job! Duke yells as we get surrounded by twenty plus cydroids. Gah what do we do we can't fight them cause she could get killed, i..i don't know. I say closing my eyes trying to think of anything, how did you guys manage without me?

 We all here an oh so familiar voice, Jake! We all yell in relief. Hey tin cans! He yells as he throws an EMP stunning all of them, now for the piece de resistance! He says as he jumps from the roof he was standing on and rushes at them destroying them all in a matter of seconds.

Never have i been so glad to see you, i joke greatfully. Hey you guys didn't leave me to die i won't either now lets go im guessing that's the one you were after? Yeah long story but yeah, i say as we all ride off staying alert to any other attacks which there were none of.

 As we make the return back i get asked something i just couldn't answer truthfully, where is my daddy? H...he well he couldn't join us he uh had to go away for awhile and asked us to watch you, i lied but i couldn't tell her the truth hey neither could you, And with that we returned.

 Phew glad to see you all made it back safely, who's the child? Grey said noticing her. Well she's Harold's daughter and she has the knowledge too. Hmm i see alright well little one what's your name? It's Molly sir, she answers with the cutest face, what? i like kids of corse having to take care of my sister alot when we were younger is probably a reason.

Excuse me sir i know you want to know about the core thingy but i'm tired can i please sleep and tell you tomorrow? She asks rubbing her eyes, of corse we don't have an extra bed though but Will would you let her use yours? Grey responds and asks. Sure with that said we all head to bed, we lost someone that could of helped us greatly but gained one hopefully able to help us.
