Half-Life 2: Retrogrλde

Tahu woke up in a dark room. How did I get in here? He thought. Then he remembered. The rebellion. The fall of the Combine. His inability to contact the others. And finally, his arrest. Maybe I can get some light in here with a small fire. No sooner did he think that then he heard a clicking sound, and a single, uncovered light bulb sprung to life. Behind it was a human with dark hair in an old Metrocop uniform, without the mask. Tahu immediately recognized it as police chief Barney Calhoun.

"You don't have to hide yourself, Tahu. We know who you are," he said.

"How do you know my name?"

"We discovered one of your guys, the green one trying to fly away from some Antlions. I believe his name was Lewa? Anyway, it just snowballed from there. He reported that there were five more. You're the last one."

"Where did you take them?"

"We used the teleporter at Black Mesa East. They all should be back by now."

Tahu breathed a sigh of relief. At least he knows that his friends are safe.

"Not to make it seem like we don't like you around. In fact, your help with the rebellion was very much needed. It's just that we don't take spies very well. We are still paranoid about the Combine returning."

One thing still bothered Tahu. "Why am I here and not at the teleporter?" "Because," replied Barney, "I want you to tell me about what you saw here on Earth."

"Why?"

"We gotta have some way of evaluating how the Combine did in an unbiased light. You showed up right in the middle of a conflict. I guess I want to know how we did, too."

Seeing no other way out of this, Tahu began his story…
