With Elise's guidance Panther manages to lead Chris out of the base without another encounter. When they reach outside it is nearly dawn.
Panther: We'd better move, if we get caught in our ops gear we'll be very conspicous.
Chris: Who's your contact that helped us then?
Panther: That's Elise, why'd you ask?
Chris: Will she join our Op?
Panther: I'm sure she will, we really need to move now, we've got to get back to the safehouse before day break.
Panther and Chris walk their way back to the safe house. When they get inside they find a man in their hallway. He is a tall well-built man, he is wearing totally black clothes, and a helmet with a darkened visor.
Man: Chris, Panther, you are required back at HQ. Kapalan needs some words. The Chopper is at the local landing strip. You will not need to take any equipment, as you will be re-issued with updated equipment at the Base. Follow me, and I will escort you to the chopper.
Without a word Chris and Panther follow the man into the back of a black van. Inside there is another guard, this one is holding a KLM-679 UN grade Assault Rifle.
Armed Guard: Private Ryan, go to the local landing strip....
