Deep Water — The Tunnel Is Alive

Squad 2, hold right flank, don't enter the alley. Steady. Wait for it to cross. Hold position.

Right side, stay put. Don't chase. Pull back. Hold fire.

Stay off the door. Who opened that door? Damn, bashed up like this. He just inhaled dust.

Choked. He's infected. You're bringing the virus into the safe cabin. Terrible.

Young lady. Look how beat up you got. Say one more word. Get out.

Now. That's a threat. I can't promise. I'm just warning.

This young lady. How dare you talk like that. One more stupid word. And I'll shove you.

And that junk box of hers. Out the door crack. You're here too. I'm too ashamed to face you.

Then don't look. Squad 1, moved 200 meters past Jin'an platform. 50 meters ahead. Dense heat source.

Confirmed target edge. Captain, it's getting stronger. It's moving. Command.

This is Squad 1. Target differs from intel. This isn't a standalone organism. The whole tunnel.

It's alive. Comms cut. No way back. All units, reverse formation.

Retreat to the platform.
