Mark runs from the scene, leaving the TII operators behind with no idea where he has gone. He tears through the streets, his breathing growing heavier with every step. The nausea that had been building inside him intensifies, twisting his stomach and making it difficult to keep his balance. Then, up ahead, he spots someone climbing into a parked car.
