Flashback

Fade in on a light purple soldier with light green highlights standing over a dead darker purple soldier

Washington: "What I don't get is the motion tracker. Noone can get by one of those while they're active. You sure you don't have anything in your logs? ... South. You with me? South!"

South: "What?"

Washington: "I need you to concentrate, South. Okay? I know he was your brother, but the sooner I can piece together what happened, sooner we can track this guy."

South: "Right, uh, sorry."

Washington: "Don't sweat it. Now, your logs. Nothing?"

South: "No, not even a ping."

Washington: "And you didn't hear anything."

South: "I heard him- I heard him scream. I came around the corner, and then, ...nothing."

Washington: "You mean you didn't see the attacker?"

South: "No, I mean nothing. I heard him scream, I headed towards him, and then suddenly you're standing over me asking me if I'm alright and telling me my brother is dead."

Washington: "Yeah. You were out about eight hours. North's armor started a level one distress and they got me here stat."

South: "Yeah..."

Washington: "Level one, South. Something you wanna tell me?"

South: "I'm sure you already know."

Washington: "I need you to confirm it."

South: "He still had Theta."

Washington: "Well I didn't find Theta on him, South. Did you take it?"

South: "...No, I don't have him."

Washington: (suspicious) "Him?"

South: (stutters nervously) "I Uh. I mean IT. It."

Washington: "Do you still have yours?"

South: "No Wash, I never had one. I was in the implant group behind you, remember? And after what happened to you, nobody got any more."

Washington: "Don't sound so bitter."

South: "Of course not. Bitter wouldn't win the war, right?"

Washington: "...I have to take care of your brother now, South. You might not want to watch this part."

South: "Can I, have a few minutes alone with him first?"

Washington: "You can have one minute."

South: "I guess I should say thank you."

Washington: "I guess you should get busy. Your minute's already started."

Washington walks away, but not too far, and we hear radio sounds.

Command: "This is Recovery Command responding secure."

Washington: "Command, this is Recovery One."
