[Private Villa 1355 Hours]

Adrian: Are we there yet?

Pvt. Sokolov: Not if you don't shut up

Adrian: Why can't we take your truck or something?

Journey: I don't think that's how it works

8-Ball: Hey, look. It's the villa

Pvt. Sokolov pull out his binoculars and begins scouting the area

Pvt. Sokolov: I see trucks down there, looks like they started the meeting

Adrian: So, what now?

Pvt. Sokolov: We get in and find our guy, what else?

Adrian: Can I get a gun at least?

Pvt. Sokolov: I'm afraid you can't because you might shoot us in the back

Adrian: I already gave you everything, can I get something in return?

Pvt. Sokolov: What do you think?

Journey: Meh, I think he deserves a second chance

Pvt. Sokolov: Alright then

Pvt. Sokolov pull out his X16 pistol and hands it to Adrian

Adrian: What is this shit gun?

Pvt. Sokolov: You said you wanted a gun, that's a gun

The group sneaks through the main gate of the villa, passing through the Ural trucks. They get snuck through the door, and Pvt. Sokolov uses a clip to open the back door

Journey: Let's be quiet guys, don't wanna let them know that we're here

The group continues to sneak through the hallway. Journey and 8-Ball covering the left flank, while Pvt. Sokolov and Adrian covers the right. Rifles were pointed to the center with their index fingers barely touching the trigger

Adrian: *whispers* Hey

Pvt. Sokolov: *whispers* What?

Adrian: *whispers* I need a mag

Pvt. Sokolov: *whispers* You have one

Adrian: *whispers* I just need one, please

Pvt. Sokolov: *whispers* Shut up, learn to conserve ammo

Journey: Guys, be quiet

They walk up through the stairs and hears someone talking in one of the rooms, possibly the Russian LT

Journey: Guys, you hear that?

Pvt. Sokolov: Da, that could be them

Journey: Alright, get ready, but we need the lieutenant alive

The team prepares to breach the room. They check their weapons and ammo and after that, 8-Ball kicks the door open and everyone rushed in, but they find the room empty with the talking they heard was coming from a recording played on loop

Journey: What the?

Pvt. Sokolov: The place is empty. Adrian?

Adrian: Hey, I swear, I could've sworn they were here

8-Ball: Yeah, you swore, alright

Pvt. Sokolov: Hey, hey, save the slaughter for later. How about we search this room, maybe they left something behind

Journey: Igor's right, there maybe some intel we can dig up here

The team scoured the entire room, they looked upside down for any piece of intel they can gather

8-Ball: Looks like some photos here, and a map of the Island too

Journey: Weapon blueprints here, AK blueprints to be exact

Pvt. Sokolov sees an RC drone with its parts stripped, sitting on a table

Pvt. Sokolov: A drone? Looks like they tried doing surgery on it

While the others are opening drawers and cabinents to look for documents, Adrian is just standing on one spot, looking clueless and confused. While walking around like an idiot, he did find a laptop in a table, with the desktop open, and immediately alerts the others

Adrian: Umm, how do you say it? Guys?

Pvt. Sokolov: What?

Adrian: *points laptop*

Pvt. Sokolov: Huh, good job

Adrian: See, what I told you-

Pvt. Sokolov moves Adrian aside to work on the laptop

Adrian: *in Russian* You could've at least said excuse me

Pvt. Sokolov looks at the laptop and scrolls the cursor down as he found a folder named оружие. He clicked on the folder and finds a chock-full of files, from documents and winRAR files

Pvt. Sokolov: Jackpot

Journey: What do you got?

Pvt. Sokolov: Check it out

Journey takes a quick peek on the files

Journey: It's Russian

Pvt. Sokolov: Don't worry, I can translate them

Journey: Here, transfer them all in this hard drive

Journey hands Pvt. Sokolov the hard drive

Adrian: Let's hope they're not "inappropriate" files, if you know what I mean, hehe

Journey and Pvt. Sokolov looks at Adrian with a confused look

Adrian: *clears throat* I'll, shut up now

Pvt. Sokolov plugs in the hard drive and begins transmitting files

System: Transmitting 3 out of 1,004 files (Time Remaining: 07:14)

Pvt. Sokolov: This should take a moment

Adrian: Yeah, as if-

A bullet of a sniper zoomed through the window glass, then into Adrian's skull

8-Ball: SNIPER!

The others duck in cover as more bullets whizzed across the room. Yelling can be heard downstairs as Russian troops began to move in like Terrorists rushing to B point

Journey: Is everyone alright?

Pvt. Sokolov: Da, except for poor Adrian here

8-Ball: He was annoying anyway

Journey: Everyone dig in, we need to hold our ground until the transfer is done

Pvt. Sokolov: Contact!

Gunfight erupts as the EGO team fights off the Russian troops. Pvt. Sokolov kills three Russians and 8-Ball shoots one. Journey breaks one of the windows and starts shooting at more Russians outside

8-Ball: How much longer?

Pvt. Sokolov looks at the laptop and it reads

System: Transmitting 634 out of 1,004 files (Time Remaining: 02:27)

Pvt. Sokolov: Almost there, just need to wait more

The EGO team finishes off the rest of the Russians while the transfer is nearly complete. The Russians then suddenly fall back for unknown reasons, as Journey noticed

Journey: They're falling back, that's strange

The laptop makes a beeping sound effect

System: Transfer Complete

Pvt. Sokolov: Doesn't matter, the transfer is complete

Pvt. Sokolov unplugs the hard drive and closes the laptop shut

Pvt. Sokolov: We're done

Journey: Alright guys, let's go

As they're about to leave, Pvt. Sokolov notices Adrian's dead corpse lying on the mahogany tiles of the room

Pvt. Sokolov: Anyone here wants to send prayers to our dear friend here?

8-Ball: What?

Pvt. Sokolov: Nevermind, he don't need one

As everyone is outside the villa, Pvt. Sokolov hops on a UAZ jeeps and attempts to hotwire it to start the jeep, and he succeeds

Pvt. Sokolov: Okay, everyone get in

Journey hops on the back, while 8-Ball rides shotgun. Pvt. Sokolov drives off and everyone got the needed intel, at the exchange of Adrian

8 Minutes Later

While Pvt. Sokolov is driving through the roads, he noticed a smoke column at the distance and informs the other two

Pvt. Sokolov: Umm, guys? Look

Journey: Is that, smoke?!

8-Ball: It looks like it's coming from the base

Journey: What happened?

Pvt. Sokolov: Sudorov. Everyone hold the fuck on

Pvt. Sokolov stomps the gas pedal and goes Deja Vu mode as they get to the EGO Base and find out what struck them
