Uncharted: Tomb of the inFAMOUS Rush

Episode 3: In The Zone

That afternoon, Wolfe and the others made there way onto a high mountain. On the peak, they could see the NSA and there base of operation.

Wolfe: Alright, there it is.

Zeke: That's the NSA?

Cole: Not exactly what I was expecting.

Nathan: Same here.

Kuo: Don't underestimate them. We can be very hostile, if threatened.

Sully: Then we better make sure that this plan doesn't go wrong.

Sam: So...exactly, how are we gonna get in there?

Wolfe: Well, considering I work with the NSA, It will be easier for me to walk in with no trouble.

Nathan: And...what about us? You expect us to wait out here?

Wolfe: Not to worry. I have already figured out a solution for you all.

Wolfe then pulled out his bag and threw a lab coat to each of the group members, along with fake badges.

Lara: What are these for?

Wolfe: To get inside, of course.

Nathan: This is seriously gonna work?

Wolfe: I don't suppose you have a better idea?

Sully: Might be wise to listen to the old man, Nate.

Nathan: Alright, whatever you say.

Zeke: How'd you even get these ID's?

Wolfe: It doesn't matter. What matters is that it should grant you access into the base.

Cole: And what about Kuo?

Wolfe: What about her? She has her ID, just like the rest of you.

Cole: No, I mean, won't they know that she's the real deal?

Wolfe: I'm sorry?

Sully: He means, this is Kuo from the future. And the Kuo in our time is still a little girl.

Lara: He's right. If they recognize her, it might cause our plan to fail.

Wolfe: Hrm, perhaps you're right. We'll just have to hope for the best and pray this goes well.

Nathan: Why do I get the feeling like something WILL go wrong?

The group put on there lab coats and fake ID's and followed Wolfe down the mountain trail and to the front door of the NSA base. Things seemed to be going a-okay...but how long would that last?

NSA Agent (1): What can we do for you?

Wolfe: We have work that needs to be continued. We must enter the lab.

NSA Agent (2): And...

Wolfe: They are with me. My assistance to help resume my work.

NSA Agent (2): ID's, please.

Cole: Sure. Here ya go.

One of the NSA agents were scanning each of there ID's. The group began to worry that there ID's wouldn't allow them entrance.

NSA Agent (1): Alright, you're good to go.

Wolfe: Thank you.

Wolfe and the others began walking through the front doors and they quickly closed, behind them. When the coast was clear, Cole and the others removed there disguises and continued on with the plan.

Nathan: Alright, phase 1 is complete, we gained access inside. Now what?

Wolfe: We need to find something that is sure enough to charge this device of yours.

Zeke: And that would be what...?

Wolfe: I'm not sure. My entire time in the base, I was always in my lab, staying out of trouble.

Kuo: Makes sense, with the NSA, if you get caught, slipping up, you're in...well, how do I say it?

Nathan: "Deep Shit".

Kuo: Well...in a way, yes.

Cole: Look, let's just find what we need and get the hell out of here.

Wolfe: Right, right. This way.

Wolfe and the others made there way through the base, looking for what they needed. They eventually came into one room...which happened to be Wolfe's lab. He turned on the lights and locked the door.

Cole: This is your work space?

Wolfe: Yes.

Zeke: Kinda small, don't you think?

Wolfe: Perhaps but it is how I like it.

Nathan: So...our massive charger is in your lab?

Wolfe: No. What we need to gain access to our "massive charger" is in my lab, if I can just...AHA!

Sam: You found it?

Wolfe: Yes. This card will allow us access into the restricted area of the lab.

Sully: Restricted area? Oh, this is going to be interesting.

Lara: Is there any other way to do what is needed?

Zeke: C'mon, Lara. Live a little. Take a trip to the dangerous side.

Sam: That's not Lara. She more of the...do-gooder, responsible and heroic type.

Cole: And I take it you aren't?

Sam: Hell no! I love to make it challenging, thrilling and dangerous.

Kuo: Then you and Zeke have something in common.

Nathan: Guys, let's hurry, before the NSA come check on us.

Wolfe: He's right. No time to waste. Let us move...hurry.

When Wolfe and the others made it to the lab, he used his access card to open the doors. And to there shock, some sort of large machine was built by the NSA. From the looks of it, it didn't seem like any type of simple charger.

Zeke: Holy...SHIT! That's our charger?

Nathan: Doesn't look like one I've ever seen.

Cole: As long as it gets the job done.

To the groups surprise, Wolfe was at the doors and used his card to lock it tight.

Cole: Uhhh...what're you doing, Wolfe?

Wolfe: Once we start this machine, the alarms will go off and the NSA will know what we're up too.

Lara: I knew this was a bad idea.

Wolfe: Once they catch on, they will come straight to the lab. Without an access card, they can't enter.

Cole: Then let's get this done...quickly.

Cole gave Wolfe the device and he began hooking it up to the machine. The lights started to flicker, electricity flowed everywhere and the top of the NSA base ceiling opened up. An antenna peeked out...but they were at a halt.

Wolfe: Oh dear...

Sully: What is it?

Wolfe: I had forgotten, we need it to storm, if we want to keep the machine running.

Cole: You leave that to me.

Cole began climbing up the machine and straight towards the top. Since he had electricity flowing through his body, he didn't take any damage at all, in fact, if he was being shot at, he would have unlimited energy that his body could be draining from the machine. When he got to the top, he walked a few feet away from the antenna. Once he was in position, his arms began to pulse with lightning and the sky began to grow dark. With a thrust of his arms, Cole sent them flying up to the sky and crashing down to his waist. By doing so, he summoned an incredible lightning storm that came striking down on the antenna and to Wolfe's surprise, it was charging the machine like crazy.

Wolfe: Remarkable...to think, our world will one day harbor people like him...Conduits.

Zeke: That's my brother for ya.

While everyone was in awe, they were soon snapped out of it, when they heard banging on the door. They turned around to see the NSA agents from the main entrance, shouting and demanding to let them in.

Nathan: Oh boy.

Zeke: Looks like our cover's blown.

Wolfe looked at the machine and the batteries weren't enough to charge the device at 100%.

Wolfe: The machine isn't completely charged yet. The doors can't open, without another access card.

Nathan: But...?

Wolfe: But it is possible that they can shatter the glass.

Kuo: The agents wouldn't be that crazy.

Wolfe: Not if it wasn't a last resort.

Sully: Shit, the kid better hurry up then.

Zeke: COLE, WE GOT COMPANY! BETTER HURRY IT UP!

Cole: Easy for him to say...he doesn't have powers...

Luckily Cole's lightning storm was charging the machine quickly, including the device. But the NSA agents were still banging on the door. They were getting rather aggressive too.

Zeke: Wolfe, I'm not sure how long that door is gonna last.

Nathan: If they bust through, we'll have to keep them away from the machine and the device.

Sully: Nate's right. If they shut it down, you can kiss your chances of going home goodbye.

Kuo: How long will that take?

Nathan: AS LONG AS IT NEEDS! We won't get anywhere, if this machine is shut down.

Zeke: Nate's right. We need to do whatever it takes.

But there luck was running out, as Cole was still charging the device, a helicopter came over Cole's head and beginning to land on the other side of the base...it looked like they had company coming in.

Cole: ZEKE, CHOPPER JUST DROPPED DOWN! BE READY FOR A FIGHT!

Zeke: Got it covered, brother!

Nathan: You heard the man, get ready for anything.

The banging on the door became much more aggressive...until someone came walking in. Whoever it was, had a female hand and grabbed an access card from her pocket. With it, she opened the door and two of her NSA agents, along with the other two walked inside and kept the exit blocked.

Nathan: Shit!

Zeke: Looks like we're out of time.

?: Indeed you are. Now, before we put an end to this, answer my question.

Sully: Which is?

?: Who the hell are you and why have you come to the NSA?

Nathan: You wouldn't believe us, if we told you.

?: Excuse me?

Kuo: Please, just give us a chance to finish what we've done.

?: And why would I do that?

Lara: Because we need to help our friends travel back to there own time.

?: Own time, what do you mean by that?

Zeke: This is gonna sound hella crazy but me and my friends are from another time period. We were sent back in time, by accident. All we wanna do is head back home.

?: Sorry to say...I not believe you. Arrest them!

Kuo: Ma'am, please! I know it sounds like a tall tale but really, we are indeed...

Before Kuo could finish, the machine began to act...crazy. It started to shake and rumble, electricity started flowing everywhere even killed two of the NSA agents. Before anyone knew it, the device started acting up and managed to create a vortex. It began to pull everything in it.

Zeke: What the hell?! What's going on?!

Lara: The device...it's malfunctioning.

Sam: But why?!

Nate: The device...is overcharging!

Sully: It's created some kind of a black hole!

Zeke: Then we gotta put that son of a bitch out!

Lara: Zeke, wait!

Zeke rushed to the device and began pulling it out! Once it was completely out, the vortex was acting up and the force pulling everything in grew stronger. The machine exploded and Cole was pushed back. He jumped back on his feet and fell back to the surface. Cole noticed the vortex and saw that he commrades were being pulled inside. He saw Zeke being the last one pulled in. Cole dashed towards his...former friend and grabbed his hands...but before he knew it, Cole was pulled inside and the vortex closed up.

NSA Agent (1): Damn, they're gone.

?: It doesn't matter...nothing we can do now. What about Wolfe?

NSA Agent (2): Out of it...but he's alive.

?: Good. That woman...she almost looked like...no it couldn't be...little Lucy?
