The Teacher thought about his situation. First: he is still alive. Second: he appeared in the strange place. This place looked like small. abandoned military base with motor pool, HQ and strange bunker. He takes his dosimeter out and started to scan his surroundings. Vehicles in motor pool was highly radioactive, and out of order. HQ was empty, besides old papers and books of USSR age. But bunker... He's dosimeter showed him, that the bunker is not radioactive and he decided to investigate. The bunker has many halls, door that leads him in the empty rooms. But he's eyes was focused on the closed, huge doors, with the handle and with the sight "armory". He opened the doors and saw a very confusing picture. A body. The dead man was equipped with the dark coloured exoskeleton, with the red stripes on the vest. Body was in sitting position, with the back to the wall. Teacher recognised armour painting, it's a "Duty"

But what is this man was doing here, in the middle of the forest with the unknown military base, dead ? Teacher placed his rifle on the ground and started to loot the corpse. He found ammo for the rifle, PDA and broken AK. PDA was, strangely turned on. The screen was bloodied, but showing a sight of message with the "play" button. He pushed this button and started a message. He heard a voice from the PDA:
" *Click* wherever i go... We will end up in the same place... And this damned fog, I can't... Get used to it... Chepurnoy had disappeared without the trace, strange... Maybe he found a way out ?.. the sixth day, and we are out of water... And the colonel gone nuts... He killed two and then suicides... Now I am alone. Alone in this damned anomaly... If I haven't even cutted off the messages from the base, maybe they had picked me up, huh ? Pension, country house and fishing... No "duty" at all... But screw this... Captain Tachenko is gone a long time ago. And the general of "duty" Tachenko will be gone too... Soon... In the upper tundra... The place filled with wildfowl... And this is... Fairness... *Boom* *sound of dropping* "
If this person is indeed General Tachenko, then Teacher found where he is disappeared. He picks Tachenko's PDA and glanced around. He saw another three bodies, two of them were in vests but the third was in combat gear. They didn't have anything reliable though. Only ammo and nothing more. Teacher farewelled to the bodies and leaved the bunker. He walks to the start of forest and stopped. He takes out one bolt and trows it at the forest. Bolt met contact with the invisible wall and disappeared, but reappeared and sent backwards. Teacher decided to test one of the artifacts. None of the had succeeded, before the compass.

The artifact dropped on the ground and started to roll in one way. Teacher followed it until artifact disappeared in the same invisible wall, but didn't appeared again. Teacher started to carefully walks in the place, where compass had disappeared. He's body went through the invisible wall, but he's gone unconscious.
