Danger exits the van.

"I must say. Your organisation seems to be going into a lot of trouble for their new hire"

"They say you are the best in your field. It whould be idiotic to not give you a permanent position"

"What do you want from me..."

"Wren"

"Ok, Wren, why am I here?"

"One of our operatives was captured and is help in a blacksite in Alaska"

"What is my entry point?"

Wren shows him a military transport helicopter carrying a container

"You have to be kidding me"

"Nope. The facility is state of the art. There is no other way to get in without being spotted"

"Fine. Who is the operative?"

"Female. Red hair. You will recognise her. Tell her that Halcyon sent you"

"What about the extraction?"

"I will come and pick you up by heli. But you will need to disable air defenses first"

"How am I going to disable them?"

"The commander will most probably know the code"

Danger grabs a bag from the van, puts a lockpick and a keycard scrambler in and head to the container

"One more thing"

"Yeah?"

"Do not let her near explosives"

Danger goes in the container

"Test"

"Yes Wren, the earpiece is working just fine"

"We won't be able to communicate when you get inside"

"Don't worry, your operative will be safe"

Wargate, Steel Cove Blacksite, Alaska

"I am in"

"We will have to cut contact now. You will signal me once you get the operative and authorize the landing"

"Alright"

"Do you remember where she is?"

"Yes, I do"

"Cutting signal now"

Danger opened the top of the container.

"Four heavily armored guards, a remote surveillance system. They have money to burn, that's for sure"

Danger climbs a nearby container and jumps to the other side. He loops a camera in order to render it inoperational. A guard comes and stands near the railing. Danger hits him with a pistol in the back and knocks him unconscious. He wears the uniform and hides the body in a chest. He hacks open the door to the main security center. Two other guards are between him and the next door

"You are not allowed here, mate"

Danger pulls out his two pistols and aims at the guards

"It seems than I am"

The guards raise their hands. Danger knocks them out by hitting them in the head with his pistol. He hides both bodies in a janitorial room. He grabs a dropped keycard and goes to the restricted area.

"It seems that they will shoot me on sight here. I will go past them"

Danger goes further inside when a guard raises her gun at him. He quickly grabs her hand and kicks her in the stomach, forcing her to let go of the gun. He grabs her by the neck and drags her in another corridor, moments before a patrol passes by. He knocks her unconscious and goes up the stairs. He lockpicks the door and gets into a vent. He exits on the other side and goes to the prison cells.
