PA Speaker: All stations, be advised, hostile forces are approaching the bunker, I repeat, hostile forces are approaching the bunker
The remaining EGO troops rush to create a strong defense against the mighty Russian forces, two times larger than their current size. They cannot lose their bunker because it is the only base they have left and losing it will mean total defeat of their forces. Turk and a few NCOs are holed up in the command room, as they map out the outer perimeter of the bunker to create a fortification that can withstand everything that the Russians throw at them
EGO Sergeant: Our men has control of the eastern wing of the bunker, the large hill should hopefully give us the advantage over the attackers
Turk: Good, what about our air defenses? I'm sure that they'll bring choppers with them
EGO Sergeant #2: We have some JOKRs and Strelas that my men stole from Holly Hedges, hopefully they're enough
EGO Sergeant #3: Sir I have received the word that the Russians are bringing tanks with them, and they're moving fast
EGO Sergeant: Why are they getting that much firepower? That's ridiculous
Turk: They'll do anything to wipe us off of the Island, Sudorov is bringing his wrath on us
Pvt. Sokolov's POV
Pvt. Sokolov: Sorana! Stop!
Sorana: It's no use, we're all going to die anyway
Pvt. Sokolov is on a chase after Sorana, whom the Russians tracked down and used her to find the EGO secret bunker
EGO Soldier: Stop right there!
Sorana tackled through the EGO Soldier, took his pistol and kept running, Pvt. Sokolov picked the soldier up and continued chasing her
Sorana: You really think I'm worth your time?
Pvt. Sokolov: Don't play games with me now and stop running!
Sorana ends up at a locked door and thinking fast, drew the pistol to Pvt. Sokolov
Sorana: How about now?
Pvt. Sokolov: H-hey, listen now, I know you're pissed that the big guy you're with died and your mourning his death, but I need you to be in the same terms as of us okay?
Sorana: Since when huh?
Pvt. Sokolov: What about Riptide? Aren't you and he used to be partners in crime?
Sorana: He's a traitor, an idiot too
Pvt. Sokolov: Put the gun down, and maybe we can get you and Riptide to do your fun hobbies, da?
Sorana thinks for a moment about Pvt. Sokolov's offer. She slowly lowers her pistol but she begins to chuckle
Sorana: Hey Sokolov
Pvt. Sokolov: Yes?
Sorana: Have you heard about Preznik?
Pvt. Sokolov: WAIT NO-
Pvt. Sokolov tried to stop her but it was too late, Sorana shot herself through the mouth and drops to the ground dead
Pvt. Sokolov: Great, just fucking great, cyka
Outside the bunker, Russian troops began firing mortars and hitting the bunker while BTR-90s roll in and drop off the troops. The EGO soldiers began opening fire at the advancing Russians with all of the weapons and equipment they have left. They put up a strong defensive position but unfortunately, the sheer strength of the Russians were too much and they were forced to fall back. Remedy and Cameo are amongst the EGO troops defending the west wing of the bunker
Remedy's POV
EGO Soldier: More incoming!
Cameo: Keep hitting them, make sure that Sudorov knows that we're not to be messed with
Remedy: Just make sure you don't get shot in the other leg
Cameo: Don't worry love, it'll take more than that to put me down
The EGO troops continue their fire against the Russians, they managed to kill most of the troops until a BTR-90 appeared and opened fire on the EGO positions, killing everyone within its line of sight
EGO Soldier: Tank!
EGO Soldier #2: There's a Strela over there, someone get that and get rid of that tank
Remedy: I'm on it
EGO Soldier: Wait, but you're the doctor here, shouldn't you be-
Remedy: Just cover me
EGO Soldier: Covering fire!
Remedy run to another cover to get to the Strela. She manages to reach it and opens fire on the BTR, hitting it and goes up in flames. As the Russian crewmen abandon their vehicle, Cameo and the rest of the EGO soldiers gun them down with no second chances. More Russian soldiers come in and lay a much stronger attack on them
Cameo: Here's more of them
Pvt. Sokolov's POV
Pvt. Sokolov goes outside to help out the troops defend the bunker, he and Rippley join alongside the fight to fend of the Russians
Rippley: Here!
Rippley tosses Pvt. Sokolov an M4A1
Rippley: What happened to Sorana?
Pvt. Sokolov: Long story, I'll tell you later
Rippley: Alright then
The EGO soldiers makes a stand against the Russians, as Rippley and Pvt. Sokolov gun down the Russian troops closing in fast to their position
Pvt. Sokolov: They're flanking us!
Rippley: Jeez, is this how much Sudorov wants to destroy us
Amidst the dreaded gunfight, a Russian soldier tackled Rippley from behind. Before the knife could be lodged into the EGO agent's chest, Pvt. Sokolov saves him at the last moment, hitting the Russian soldier with a headshot
Rippley: Thank you
Pvt. Sokolov: Just watch yourself next time
Riptide's POV
Riptide: Hey!
EGO Soldier: Yes sir?
Riptide: Remember the truck that I told you to bring back here?
EGO Soldier: Uhh...
Riptide: *sigh* Just tell me where you park the trucks
EGO Soldier: Yes sir, follow me
Riptide: Thank you
Riptide follows the young EGO soldier to the garage where the vehicles are being kept. He finds the truck carrying the gas in the corner
Riptide: Where's the keys for that truck?
EGO Soldier: That truck sir?
Riptide: Yeah, what else?
The EGO soldier rushes to find the keys for the truck
Pvt. Sokolov's POV
Meanwhile, Pvt. Sokolov, Rippley, and several EGO troops still hold their line against the Russian advance. They met up with Remedy and Cameo who were forced to retreat after their position got overwhelmed
Remedy: There's no end to them, it's like half of Russia is after us
Pvt. Sokolov: Well, we Russians don't believe in the word "quit" that's why, don't blame me
As the Russians were about to corner EGO, Riptide comes out of nowhere, driving the truck carrying the Russian gas.
Riptide: Alright you bastards, you want your gas? Well here it is
He pulls a grenade with his teeth, throws it below him, and bail out as the truck drives itself into the Russian forces. The truck explodes and releases the gas but both Russian and EGO forces are affected. The EGO agents cough and became weakened by the gas but before they succumb to the gas, two shadowy figures save Pvt. Sokolov and the others by wearing gas masks and drag them to safety as the entire place becomes full of the green toxic clouds
?: Quick! Close the bunker doors
?: I'm on it!
The bunker doors shut close as Pvt. Sokolov's vision blacked out and fell unconscious from the sudden gas attack
7 Minutes Later
Pvt. Sokolov and the others finally wake up and regain their strength, but the incident earlier left them with a lot of questions
Pvt. Sokolov: What the? What...
Cameo: Ugh... My head, what just happened?
The EGO agents take off their gas masks and finds the people who saved them from their demise
Journey: It's okay guys, you're safe now
Pvt. Sokolov: Look who came back
Journey: Well if it wasn't for us, you'd have cold feet by now
Journey grabs Pvt. Sokolov's hand and picks him up
Turk: You two, I'm glad you're back. How did you know by the way?
8-Ball: One of the locals said that there were trucks carrying soldiers headed for the forest. Me and Journey knew something was up so we came back here
Journey: And all we know is that place is full of... gas I think?
8-Ball: Good thing we found a couple of gas masks from some dead Russians, dunno if that's for convenience or style
Cameo: Whatever that was, it sure is some strong stuff
Chic: Hey, I helped too! I shut down the bunker doors for us
Turk realizes something was up and it's possibly connected to the gas
Turk: Wait a minute
Remedy: Everything wrong?
Turk: Dad... he kept talking about a surprise or something
EGO Soldier: Sir, mind if I say something?
Turk: Go
EGO Soldier: Riptide mentioned about a truck, he told me to look for its keys. And I saw something in the back once he drove off
Pvt. Sokolov: Let me guess? Gas canisters?
EGO Soldier: It did have a biohazard sign in it so maybe?
Turk: Son of a... that motherf-
Remedy: Hey, hey, easy now calm down
Turk: That damn psycho didn't tell me he was hiding a chunk of the gas
Turk becomes full of rage from his father's hideous actions
Turk: My men are dead thanks to him!
Pvt. Sokolov: Turk calm down, calm down. We'll find him, we'll find him okay?
Turk: He played us both, both us and Sudorov
8-Ball: Sir, with all due respect, we do not need you to be distracted from your father's actions. Now is the time to act because ALTER and the Russians will come back for more
Remedy: 8-Ball's right, now that the Russians know that we gave them a taste of their own medicine, we need to pull ourselves together
Turk is slowly simmering down and starts to maintain calmness. He finally cools down but is not done with Riptide
Turk: Okay, I'm sorry
EGO Soldier: Umm, yes sir
Journey: Do we have something of value? Like what ALTER is planning next?
Pvt. Sokolov: I have one
8-Ball: What do you got?
Pvt. Sokolov: Before Sorana, ummm, we'll deal with that later. But she mentioned a name
Turk: What is it?
Pvt. Sokolov: Something called "Preznik". Not sure what it is but that's what I'm able to get from her
Journey: Then that's where we're going after next. Turk?
Turk: Alright, what do we know about Preznik?
