Bo: Okay; so how the hell do we get out of this place?
Bo looks around the garage.
Killen: Let's find out....
Bo: So, Dante, you got bit during the first day of the epidemic, huh?
Dante: Well, not bit, but clawed.....
Bo: And your brother is Dr. Fenix? He like, what, cured your infection?
Dante: I don't know....all I remember is my wife and my boy running through the city....people turning on each other....eating each other.....
Bo: And you mentioned your wife....she...uh...didn't make it?
Dante: Yeah....
Bo: Exactly how old was your boy when all this started to happen?
Dante: Seven....while I was in, my brother was suppose to be watching him.....if I know Ryan, he could've raised my boy.
Dante sighs.
Dante: I hope.
Killen: or just abandoned him like Kronos does everybody. People out here in the wasteland don't trust Kronos for good reasons....but then again, we're trusting you....and trust is a hard thing to earn these days.
Bo: You're gonna be fine, man.
Bo leads the two to an old building with old artifacts.
Killen: What is this place?
Dante: It's a museum. Some of these artifacts are hundreds of years old, before my time.
The three go into a room that had debris blocking a door way, where there was a large wood sticking out of the debris. Dante goes over to the to push it down, using it as a leverage on the fallen debris, then Killen and Bo go hurry under it to get to the other room, but suddenly begins to collapse, separating Dante from Killen and Bo.
Bo: Dante!
Dante: I'm alive! I'll find another way around.
The two hear some Skinners.
Bo: They're here! Go! Go!
Bo shoots at the Skinners, before fleeing. Dante crouches down to avoid the Skinners in the room, before he manages to finally reach the upper floor, where he finds Bo fighting off a Skinner.
Dante: Bo!
Bo finally stabs the Skinner in the head, before bashing its head in.
Bo: I'm okay!
Killen: Fuck! Bo! Get in here!
Dante and Killen run into the next room to see a Skinner had a hold of Killen as Dante grabs the Skinner attacking him, before Bo stabs the Skinner in the head. The three then quickly dispatch of the attacking Skinners.
Dante: Bo, how you holding up?
Bo: Just a bit winded, man....
Bo points to the open window.
Bo: This way. This'll get us up to the roof.
Bo then climbs out of it.
Dante: How about you, man?
Killen: You don't need to worry about me, old man. I can take care of myself.
Dante: Sure as shit didn't look like it.
The two then climb out the window and up the old fire escape until they reach the rooftop.
Bo: There she is. That's our building, right there.
The building looked closer, but still a few hours away. Killen in the meantime, grabs a wooden plank ad places it between the space between the museum and the rooftop next to it.
Killen: You know how to plank walk, old man?
Dante: More or less....
Dante crosses easily as Killen follows behind, standing next to Dante looking at the capital while the sun was rising behind it.
Killen: Helluva view, huh?
Dante: Yeah...it is...
Bo: Come on. This way.
Bo walks by the two towards a ladder, before Dante follows him.
Bo: Killen! Pick it up!
Dante climbs down as Bo speaks to Killen.
Bo: I need you focused. Okay?
Killen: Sure thing.....
