—----------------------------------------------------------------------

Once Kestrel entered the base, he noticed the place was empty. It was some kind of lobby to a hospital, perhaps some type of R&D building... As if the base was about it.

Kestrel walked inside until he suddenly heard an explosion, rumbling everything as dust fell off the ceiling, with the lights turning off seconds later. He turned on his NVG and kept walking deeper into the place.

After walking a bit deeper in the base he found a map. He started reading it realizing that the objective was underground. Kestrel then used a new feature of his NVG which now brought a H.U.D. After checking something with the new system. He started looking for something that could help him find whatever he's looking for.

After a while of looking around, he saw an office door open with a computer turned on. He walked towards it and the computer had a map open to the objective, so Kestrel decided to link it with the TACPAD and take him towards the nearest entrance point to the underground.

After going out of the office, he saw the mark on a elevator. He decided to take it. After reaching the underground entrance, the place was dark. Abandoned, So he followed the signs to a checkpoint up ahead.

The more he walked the more worried Kestrel got since the halls and everything were empty and suddenly it was dark enough for the naked eye to see normally...

As Kestrel kept walking through the hallway of the site which looked exactly the same as of an hospital he saw there were 2 paths up ahead. Checking the map he needed to take left then right and he would reach a checkpoint.

After he did so he saw the door to the checkpoint but what made him extremely aware was what looked like a bloodied mark of a hand.

He holstered the AK then grabbed the katanas in knife mode. [I don't remember if I wrote this but his katanas have 2 modes. Short blade being normal knives with the size of a Bowie knife. And the long blade which we all already know.]

As he entered, he saw that most of the place was bloodied. No bodies which was weird, he looked forward and saw the entrance of the elevator being blocked by some kind of plasma? Electricity gate? He looked around and saw a door with a computer.

He walked towards the door opening it. Once inside, he saw what it looked like those posts where they ask you for ID and stuff in checkpoints... What was the name? Well I guess I'll find out later. [Think they are called guard posts? I don't know. Anyone willing to tell me?]

Kestrel walked towards the computer and looked at the option "LIFT LOCKDOWN", Kestrel pressed "YES" and then a pop up warning appeared saying "BEWARE, LOCKDOWN WAS SET FOR A REASON. ARE YOU REALLY SURE?" Kestrel rolled his eyes as if he was talking to Cross and pressed "YES" again.

He saw the electric gate. You know what? Let's call it fucking plasma gate. The plasma gate was opened and after a few seconds a soldier came out.

Blacklist Soldier: I've got contact!

He sprayed at the window, sadly the window was bulletproof. After the soldier reloaded they both heard something... Whispering?

Suddenly a door opened and something came out of it. Smoke? Black smoke? Kestrel looked behind the Blacklist Soldier who was scared shitless and knew he was fucked so he did the most rational thing
