the beast pauses momentarily before charging at the man's hiding spot. the man is startled and attempts to run but as the creature is in his pursuit he hears the sound of a 3rd pair of footsteps.
The man is backed into a corner, tripping as he attempts to not hit the wall. just as the beast is about to strike an arrow pierces the beast's head. the creature falls to the floor as the life in its eyes dwindles. the man looks around confusingly as a figure emerges from the wreckage.
there stood before him a woman emerging from the wreckage with a crossbow in hand, the woman offered to help the man survive in exchange for his help to deliver an item to an outpost group across the continent.
The man learns his name to be mike before saying yes and mike and jess decide to take a walk to find a man by the name of jake.
Jake is a engineer and medic so he will be useful towards the group jess replies. as they are both walking they are faced with the decision to go further into the wreckage to find a shortcut or take the long rode to get to jakes hideout.
Jess and Mike decide to take the long route due to fear of danger in the wreckage. however unbenounced to them, they walked into the storm that was heading for Jake's hideout. Mike and jess were nearly at Jake's house when the storm hit putting them in a dangerous scenario.
the cold temperatures and strong winds cause jess and mike to nearly die however jess pulls out a flare and shoots it into the sky.
Jess and Mike hide behind a rock, but unfortunately, the storm is about to engulf them. however mike spots 2 beams of light approaching their vicinity, and a car emerges from the fog before just stopping in front of them. Jake walks out yelling at them to get in. Mike and Jess hop in the car before Jake speeds off away from the storm.
jake tells them the storm already engulfed his home. Jake tells them there is a guy they can go to who will help them survive and get materials. the man they soon learn to be named Paul.
Jake drives for hours before stopping in front of a hideout. Paul walks out asking Jake what happened. Jake tells him the storm destroyed his house and tells Paul they need a place to stay.
They decide to take the short route, jess and mike talk while they make it through the wreckage after 2 hours of walking they make it to jakes hideout before greeting him.
Jake greets them before mentioning they must add another person to the group as support. however, as you gather to make a unanimous decision a storm brews and you are faced with the decision to go into the storm to get this 4th group member or stay inside to be protected from the storm.
the group decides to stay indoors however the lightning of the storm outside strikes the house causing parts of it to burn down the group is forced to sleep in a secret compartment of the house for the night. While Jess sleeps Mike and Jake talk about their situation. Jake shows his suspicions of this outpost group and wonders why they want this behlit so badly. mike asks to see the behlit and Jake shows him. the behlit has strange features such as a face that is scattered around the behlit. mike tells jake that the appearance of it disturbed him
The storm clears, and the group walks outside, half of the house burned down. the group decides to start walking to the 4th group member's house who we learn to be named dave.
we are brought to a old run down car, the car while big, is old and looks as if it wont get far. Mike questions if it will work and Jake jokes calling the car ol reliable.
We are now faced with the decision to go to a survival group, which Jake calls Paul and his crew. Paul is a middle-aged man but has experience with firearms and the surrounding area. or we could use ol reliable and attempt to get to Dave's hideout early. Paul's crew has supplies although may take time to get there and take a turn to Dave's hideout. the car is old and unreliable so if they try to go to Dave's hideout the car may break. Mike, Jess, and Jake and forced with this decision which will they choose?
the group decides to go to Dave's hideout. Jake's car fills with heat under the sun's rays as they traverse through the desert. the group eventually arrives at jakes hideout but it seems to have been barged in. mike questions if they should go in there as he hears whispers coming from the house. jake grabs a handgun he had stored in his glove compartment as he gets out the car and sneaks into the house with the rest of the group.
inside they find a blonde haired man with a buzz cut kneeling down while an ak-47 stares at the back of his head. the man holding it tells Dave they gave him to many chances to pay up the money threatening to kill him and loot the house. jess and jake hide in a corner while mike hides on an opposite side of the room. the man and his companion tell Dave that he will pull the trigger counting down from 5 as to mock Dave. just as Dave is about to die mike trips over an item. the man stops counting. mike emerges from the dark before begging the man to spare Dave's life. the man asks why he should care and mike proposes an opportunity. mike tells the man he could've have money and the man looks outside staring at the vehicle. the man says he wants the car and everything in it but mike says he can just give him the car but the man persists. the mans friend grabs mike and puts his a sub machine gun to his head. mike says that he needs the stuff in the car and tells the man to think about the offer. the man says okay but how about I just kill both of y'all and take everything in the car too. the man then begins counting down again. mike then quitley says okay knowing that his group needed the stuff. the man still counts down not hearing mike.
Mike yells okay as the man stops counting. mike signals for Jake to do something as the man hears commotion behind him he begins to turn. mike then needing to distract the man begins insulting him. the man turns his head to face mike before raising his gun to shoot him as he is about to pull the trigger a loud bang is heard as the man falls to his knees, blood rushing out of his head. the second man then gets shot multiple times in the chest before also collapsing.
Jake walks out of his hiding spot with Jess, mike, Dave, Jess, Jake, all walk out of the house as Dave thanks mike and the group for saving him.
Dave walks out the feeling of wind blowing in his face as he sees the setting sun filling him with relief dave asks jake "so... where we going?.
Jess tells the group that rather they can go into the winter storm near the upper part of the continent to get to the outpost group or they can go directly into the desert where they can use a train system to make it to the outpost group faster. however jess brings up the possibility of going through a cave tavern and using it as a shortcut to get to a jungle area and get to the outpost group.
the group decides to go to the jungle due to the cave likely leading to nowhere. the group would start traversing through the plains area to get to the jungle.
the group manages to make it to the jungles near the caribbean. mike asks jess if she knows the area before saying that no one has been here in years.
the group would then travel through the jungle and its harsh terrain and environment before Jake hears something behind him.
a giant insect appears behind him as Jake and mike run from the beast.
A decision must be made rather Dave can run with mike and hide with them for protection or he can attempt to kill the creature.
dave decides to run with jake and mike as they both hine behind a tree.
The group runs as the creature discovers them. they run for what seems like minutes as jake gets tired. they approach a cliff as they are back into the edge of it.
just the jess walks behind the creature shooting its wings as it falls over the cliff and dies.
the group thank jess and decide that the jungle is too much and leave to go back to the desert.
the group walks for hours before reaching a river that seems to be unoccupied. the group decides that they could take the river to go around travel across the rough terrain and just go by sea. dave asks where they will get a boat as jake comes up with an idea.
jake takes them miles away from where they are to closer to the coast as he introduces them to a group of pirates he befriended year ago. the pirates tell jake that they can take them around the terrain and to northern canada where they can walk the plains to the outpost group.
they decide to leave as the ship starts moving and jess gets an uncomfortable feeling about the ship.
they travel for hours before a storm appears and the crew is forced inside the ship. the leader of the group, nicknamed metalmouth for his metal filling tell the group that there is a legend about a kraken that destroys any ship in the atlantic.
just then a loud crash is heard as they go to investigate. one of the crew members tells metalmouth that a big hole is in the ship and its sinking.
they look outside before seeing a giant octopus creature attempting to destroy the ship. metal mouth tells the group not to panic but is cut-off by the halls filling with water.
the ship is submerged as mike attempts to save his friends but to no avail. mike emerges from the water clinging onto a shred from the ship as he sees the giant grab him and force him in its mouth.
As steady as she goes ending
he decides to attempt to kill the creature and grabs his gun. the flying insect dodges his bullets with relative ease.
mike sees the creature has a large sack most likley as a stomach. dave decides that that is the best choice to kill it.
The insect knocks over Dave as he falls to the floor gun kicked away. just then Mike and jake come in as Dave yells for them to shoot its stomach.
jake then gets a clear shot on the insect as it falls to the floor before dave grabs his gun and kills it.
the group is stunned as jake and mike emerge from the bushes. they decide to see where jess went as they explore the area. the beauty of it mesmerising them.
the group then finds jess as she looks beyond at a waterfall in the distance. the group decides whether or not to venture out into the mountains near the outpost or to stay in the jungle.
the group decides to go to the mountains across the jungle to make it to the outpost group.
the group travel for many days before finally reaching the mountains. jake collapses to the floor from exhaustion as dave and jess sit on a log to relax.
the group decides to stay their for a couple days as they start to set up camp and get recourses from a village nearby.
as the days pass mike gets bored and decides to climb a mountain.
he goes to the very top as he decides what to do with his life. he thinks about the time he spent in the village and decides to go back down to discuss with the group.
he talks about how he wants to stay in the village as it is the only familey he has truly known and how the rest of the group should do the same.
jess talks about the mission explaining just how important it is to here but just then jake stands up and tells the group that he might stay with Michel. mike then tells the group that him and jake are staying and if they stay with them then they can live peacefully. dave tells jess that if she stays then he will stay and she now has to make a decision on whether or not to stay in the village.
jess decides to continue the mission as dave follows suite. dave and jess talk as dave asks jess if that was the smartest decision.
they continue to travel on 2 horses the village gave them as they approach the desert.
dave and jess arrive at the desert and dave asks jess to stop. dave tells jess if what she did back there was a good idea and jess tells dave that she doesnt.
jess tells dave that she has wanted a day in her life to live with a familey and that the outpost group has helped her more then their group ever did.
they travel for more hours before they see cars in the distance. they pull out their guns but then people walk out of the cars and its some of the outpost leaders. gus walks out telling jess that he is proud of her and has heard of their troubles. he explains that the outpost group will welcome them in if they give the behlit.
jess hands the behlit over to gus before he then says that he has heard about the communities she was with and tells her she can stay in their city or continue to venture out by herself and dave.
they decide not to go as gus and the leaders with them well. they decide to race with their horses as they approach paul's hideout.
they talk about life and decide that they are content with being in pauls crew as they talk about their past. they arrive at pauls door and he welcomes them in as they tell him about mike and jake.

Jess walks outside and sits on one of the chairs while staring at the night sky. Some of Paul's crew members and Jake all sit on one of the couches while joking and reminiscing about old times while drinking beer. Mike is handed one but only holds it in his hand the entire time.

Mike walks outside the feeling of his boots pressing against the desert sand soothing his worries as the wind truffles through his hair. Mike looks up at the clear blue sky calming any fear in him, mike exhales writing his vision as just a bad dream.

the talk is interrupted by Jake walking in. Jake sits while eating his bacon and egg telling the trio that while he does think she is a good person, he doesn't believe that this outpost group is trustworthy and thinks she trusts them too much. mike says whats the deal with this outpost group? why are you judging them when you just seem to be going of intuition. Jake tells mike that he doesn't know them like he does and that he's known of them for years.
Paul walks in asking the group how they're doing, we are doing good. Jake replies. Paul asks Mike to follow him telling him that it's time for him to show Mike something. mike walks in an orchestra of guns and ammunition boarded onto the walls. "A man's gun is like his pride" Paul tells Mike "So what would you like to get as your first gun" Mike stares at the array of weapons. he sees submachine guns, AK 47s and many more. "don't pick one too big you don't wanna seem like your compensating for something" mike stares at a gun. its grey colour and shape grabbing his vision. Paul grabs out two guns. "this, is a 44mm magnum gun. its perfect for someone who isn't an enthusiast but wants protection. this is also a gun but a 22mm" so which would it be? The 44mm Is easy to use but, is harder to reload and isn't far range. the 22mm is easy to reload and more powerful but will be unstable with low velocity and will require you to reload more.
Mike decides to use the 44m however, due to inexperience he accidently shoots the floor as the bullet ricochets off the floor. the bullet then stops as Paul decides to teach mike how to use it.
mike decides to pick the ladder mike feels the weight of the 22m in his hands and suddenly feels a surge of power drift through him.
mike walks out before aiming at a piece of metal sitting outside of the base. mike walks onto the balcony before attempting to shoot the metal, however he did not enticipate the force of the whiplash and the gun fell out of his hands onto the floor. paul sees this and relaizes maybe the 44m was the better option before giving mike the second gun and teaching him how to use it.
mike walks out to the rest of the group as they prepare to go to dave's hideout. paul asks jake if they going to need them or not.

dave and the group arrives at the base as they sleep for the night and decide to go out to adventure the next day.
The group wakes up and decides to go to the middle of the continent to use a train to get to the outpost group quicker.
the group hop in their car as they drive to the desert of north america to deliver the behlit.
on their way a group of bandits chase them jake mentions to the group that they should've asked paul and his group to help them as the bandits chase them. jake looks at the behlit as it begins to glow, he holds it to the car as the car speeds up and leaves the bandits in the dust. the car then crashes as they make it to the train station.

mike then begs the men to spare their lives as he thinks of ways to come out of this alive. Victor tells them that crashing the train is not okay as Mike thinks of ways to coarse the outpost group to spare them. Victor kneels to Jake's level and mocks Jake for staying silent. victor then says that he will spare 3 people of the group while taking one. Should Jake tell them to leave as during the night beasts come out to hunt and that if the outpost group spend anymore time here they will all die or does he stay silent.
jake tells them that if they stay here any longer they will die from the beasts that emerge at night as victor tells jake that is a wonderful idea. the men then abandon the desert leaving the group to die.
