I Awake. I See Jennifer Next To Me. I Guess My Mission Starts Today... I Will Find Out If My Friends Are Alive Or Not.

"Hey..." Jennifer Says To Me.

"Listen I'm Sorry I... Just Have..." I'm Cutoff. 

"Don't Be I Understand... Why You Wanted To Leave..." Jennifer Says.

"I Just Don't Want To See You Guys Die... Cause Of Me..." I Say.

I Get Up. Jennifer Grabs My Hand.

"I'll Fight Till The Very End With You No Matter What Happens..." Jennifer Says.

The Duty Squad Leader Runs In.

"Fear... I Think We Captured The Ones Who Killed Most Of You're Squad." Duty Squad Leader Says To Me.

"Where?" I Ask.

"Follow Me." Duty Squad Leader Says To Me.

I Follow The Duty Squad Leader. I See Four Monolith Members. One Looks At Me And Smiles.

"Fear... The Zone Will Make You Suffer..." Monolith Member Says.

"I Want To See It Fucking Try!" I Yell.

"It Will And It Can The Zone Talks To Us... It Wants You Dead..." Monolith Member Says.

"What The... You're All Insane... You All Will Die!" I Yell.

"That's Why Your Squad Died The Zone Wanted Us To Kill You." Monolith Member Says.

I Punch The Monolith Member In The Face. 

"I'm Done With These Monolith Members..." I Say.

I Walk Away. I Walk Back Into My Room. I Punch The Wall. What Are They Talking About The Zone Talks To Them... These Can't Be Normal Stalkers... I Notice My Hand Is Bleeding. I Need To Stop Letting My Anger Get The Best Of Me...

"You Okay? What Happened?" Jennifer Asks.

"They Are Just Crazy..." I Say.

"We're Going To Head Out... Gonna Be A Long Travel..." Jennifer Says.

"Long Travel Huh I Think Walks Are Fun." I Say.

"Is He Joking Or What I Can't Tell..." Eye Says.

"Unfortunately He Isn't Joking..." Jennifer Says.

"Alright Let's Go." Alex Says. 

We Walk Out Of The Room. I See Ten Duty Members Waiting.

"Uh Yes?" I Say.

"We'll Be Traveling With You." Duty Member Says.

"Alright..." I Say.

I See The Duty Squad Leader Walk Up. 

"You Guys Ready?" Duty Squad Leader Asks.

"Yeah..." Alex Says.

I Start Walking With The Duty Members. I See Jennifer Walking Beside Me. Will This Be Worth It... I Hope So... Otherwise I Wasted Everyone's Time.

"We'll Find Them I Promise You... And I Won't Die..." Jennifer Says.

"I Just Hope Some Of The Military Is Still Alive... We Need To Stop The Monolith They'll Be A Big Problem..." I Say.

"Yeah..." Jennifer Says. 

"I'm Worried Jennifer... This Is Going To Be Dangerous... The Last Thing I Want To See Any Of You Die..." I Say.

"Don't..." Jennifer Cutoff. 

The Ground Falls Bellow Us. We're In A Cave. I See Jennifer Sitting Up. I Run Up To Her. I See Her Legs Are Broken.
