Part Three: Crushing Hard

Unnecessary Solicitation

You musn't delay, Character!

Doctor Arvin

Briefing

Character, were you able to find Subject Zero?

...

...

A rampage in South Aetna?! If something isn't done, we could lose Subject Zero - and our cure - forever to the PPD! Quick, Character, I know of a way that you can slip in there to disarm the situation and get Subject Zero before the PPD do!

Those Loyalists who are truly loyal to safety and peace of Praetoria would do well to speak with Provost Marchand about events that are happening - before going to stop this rampage.

• Alright, let's get started. (Begin Mission)

• Hold on Arvin, you never mentioned you were Subject Zero's Uncle.

What?

... yes, I'm related to Subject Zero, Character. Why do you ask?

• Why didn't you mention this? Are you ashamed of him?

Ashamed?

No, not at all, Character. I care about my nephew, very much. Which is why I must keep my distance from our... connection. As a doctor, I must remain professional and disconnected from my patients. If I have an emotional investment... then mistakes can be made during the procedure.

I must ensure that Subject Zero is just that to me - another patient to work on. No connection, no face, just a means to an end.

I hope you can understand that, Character. Now, please, you must hurry to South Aetna!

• I'm on it. (Begin mission)

• No reason, let's get going. (Begin mission)

Contacting Provost Marchand

Provost Marchand

Briefing

Character! There's a rampage in South Aetna at this very moment!

• I'm aware, Marchand. I'm on it - a man named Subject Zero is there.

Subject Zero? What are you talking about?

• (Explain the situation.)

So, Arvin is working on a cure for Fixadine?

Very interesting. Praetor White might not like that for various reasons, but I believe that anything that helps keep the peace is good for Praetoria.

For now, I'd say work together with Arvin. We'll have our own men ready. However, you should be warned that if other Praetors find out, they may send their own squad of PPD to handle the situation.

Some would see this cure as an opportunity, and will try to take as much credit as possible. Those would be the people who don't care about the fate of Praetoria, unlike you and I.

• Alright, Marchand. I'll head to stop that rampage.

• What happened to Paolo? There was no news on him being a traitor.

Business As Usual

You spoke with Marchand about events surrounding Dr. Arvin. Given the current situation in South Aetna, Marchand implored that you play along with Arvin for now and focus on getting the Destroyers out of South Aetna.

Debriefing

Character, this is terrific! Subject Zero, back in our custody! Now I can move forward with finding a cure.

You and I, however, are not done yet. Far from it. I'll need your help in finding the last components for the cure before I can properly administer it to Subject Zero.
