Hiro slowly opened his eyes, it was nighttime. Hiro got up and looked around. All that surrounded him were bodies of dead bandits. He didn't see Rat, Steve or... Snake. Hiro suddenly remembered how he ended up like this. "Damn it! How could I have lost to a bandit?" Hiro remembered how he got hit with Snake's glowing fist. "Well, what now?" Hiro thought in his head. "Those bandits probably took Steve to their camp or he's already dead, oh well I'll just have to tell Solstice I lost him, it's not like he was super important he was just a plaything for Solstice." Hiro walked away when he started to remember the conversation they had before the bandit attack. They were both similar the way they didn't have their parents. Steve was Hiro's only friend. Hiro stopped walking. "I don't want to fail Solstice, maybe he's still alive. I have to find him." Hiro thought. Suddenly he heard footsteps behind him and turned around to see Dog meat. Dog meat started barking happily. "Why are you so happy?" Hiro asked. Dogmeat started walking away from Hiro, he stopped then looked back at him. "What? You know where Steve is?" Hiro asked. Dogmeat barked happily. Hiro was still injured so he decided to rest up a little bit before going after Steve. "Steve, I promise I'm going to find you."
