In the deadlands, Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James come across a Condemned base made in the middle of the deadlands.
James: Well, even if you destroy their home, they rebuild somewhere else.
Shawn: Yeah, I just thought you know; they'd be out here in the middle of the deadlands just for a tan.
Kyle: Seems like they've been here since the flood. They've.....settled in. Taken over the whole damn area.
Kyle spots a barge settling down.
Kyle: Hey, that barge is setting down. Who's up for a good ol hijack?
Jake: Hell yeah. Free flight to Archly Gate. Let's do it, baby!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James travel down to the lower grounds via elevator. Shortly after, a Condemned guard is walking around a horn, before Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James are spotted by the Condemned Guard as he attempts to run to the horn, attempting to alarm the other Condemned.
Jake: Shit! He's trying to sound that horn!
Kyle and Shawn manage to shoot the Condemned guard dead, before he can alarm the horn.
Kyle: Take out any of those fuckers before they sound the alarm. Shawn, use the crossbow. No guns from here. Only knives.
Shawn: Got it.
Shawn shoots down the few Condemned guards with his crossbow while Kyle, Jake and James use their knives to quietly take out the other Condemned guards, before finally managing to sneak in through a secret entrance. Suddenly, the barge that was apparently landing closes in on their position.
Shawn: Uh.... Kyle, something tells me they're not going to land.
On the barge, the Condemned Drones aim their rocket turrets at the group and open fire, forcing Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James to flee.
Kyle: Run! Go!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James manage to avoid the rockets, before finally getting out the barges' range.
Jake: I think we're good. That barge can't hit us from here.
James: Well, if we're lucky, they think we're dead.
Kyle: And if we aren't lucky?
James: They've gone to reload more missiles for us.
Shawn: Then we continue forward straight into hell.
Jake: So where are we now?
Shawn: I just said into hell.
Jake: Ah.....hey, how long's it been since we've had contact with Bowers? You think he still might be alive after all these years.
Kyle: If he's dead, Beatrix would hang onto the disk then.
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James spot a barge tower across the distance.
Jake: Looks like if we want to get to those barges, we gotta climb that tower.
Kyle: Great minds think alike.
Kyle turns to James.
Kyle: James, you sure you can control that thing once we grab it?
James: I grabbed the navigation system from the wrecked barge. One map straight to Archly Gate. Primed and ready to go.
Kyle: Huh....nice job, man.
James: Seriously though....can we not talk about that story? Especially around Cassandra.
Shawn: As your brother, I'm not making any promises.
Shortly afterwards, Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James manage to breach inside the Condemned stronghold, where they spot many Frog-Bombs in cages.
Shawn: Aw, a pet shop. Hey, James, that one's cute! You and Cassandra were talking about a dog in Hahnville.
James: Yeah, I'd like an actual dog that doesn't blow your face apart.
A Condemned drone carrying ammo notices the group.
Condemned Drone: What the fuck? Intruders!
Jake: Shit, we're going to have every fucking Condemned on our asses!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James fight through the Condemned stronghold, where they later find the Condemned loading bombs into the Frog-Bomb creatures.
Jake: So, this is how they create the frog bombs!
James: Ah...smart.
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James continue fighting through the Condemned, before later, a Condemned drone locks them in a pit area. However, while attempting to escape, Shawn manages to gun down the Condemned drone.
Jake: what the hell did he accomplish by locking us in here? We can easily get out.
Suddenly, movement underground bursts from the ground, before Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James take precaution.
Kyle: something's in here with us.....get ready.
Suddenly, a small eight-legged Titan emerges from the ground.
James: Shit, it's an another small Eight-Legged Titan!
Kyle: Take it out!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James open fire on the eight-legged Titan, but the gunshots have no effect with the armor around it's legs.
Shawn: Save the bullets! I got this one!
Shawn lunges at the small Eight-Legged Titan and jumps onto it, stabbing it in the head with an explosive arrow as Shawn is knocked off. After a few brief moments, the explosive arrow detonates, blowing the Eight-Legged Titan's head off.
Shawn: Ugh.
James: Nice move, Shawn.
Shawn: Thanks.
Shawn shoots the small eight-legged Titan with an explosive arrow as it detonates, blowing it's head off.
Jake: Well, that worked!
James opens the pit door, before Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James continue forward.
Jake: Ugh. I hate Eight Legged Titans, man! All those legs. It's fuckin creepy.
James: Well, that's because Eight-Legged Titans are something like spiders and- you know what; I'm going to stop talking now.
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James climb to the upper level to find a nest of multiple Eight-legged Titan eggs.
Kyle: Oh, boy.
James: Hey, Jake. Do the eggs creep you out too?
A small eight-legged Titan is birthed from an egg.
Shawn: oh....so that's where an eight-legged Titan comes from. Makes sense.
James: When a mommy Eight-legged Titan and an Daddy Eight-Legged Titan get all these emotions and in heat, they decide to-
Shawn: Whoa, slow down, little brother. The last thing this thing would want is titty milk from his mama's breast.
James: Have you ever seen an eight-legged Titan tit or dick?
Shawn: Why would I want to see an Eight-Legged Titan tit or dick?
James: Well, I'm just saying, man. Imagine how the big ones make all these eggs. They probably fuck like humans. All those positions. Missionary. Doggy Style.
Shawn: Pro-Bone?
James: What? What kind of freaky porn did you watch?
Shawn: I don't watch porn, James....and besides, imagine if an Eight-Legged Titan pulled out. It's fuckin jizz would--
Kyle: Will you two shut the fuck up before we wake up its Mom?
Suddenly, the small Eight-legged Titan attacks, forcing the group to open fire and kill the baby Eight-Legged Titan. The gunfire alerts the mother Eight-Legged Titan as it roars throughout the nest.
Kyle: Ah, shit! Looks like we woke up Mama Titan!
The baby Eight-Legged Titans begin to hatch from the eggs.
Jake: And she woke up the babies! The fuckin eggs are hatching!
Shawn: Shit!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James dispose of the attacking baby Eight-Legged Titans.
James: Dude, it's bad luck to crush a spider!
Shawn: It's bad luck if we don't kill them!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James manage to hold off the baby Eight-Legged Titans for a few minutes just before the Mother Eight-Legged Titans arrives.
Kyle: Here comes Mom to settle down the kids!
Shawn: Well, it's tits aren't as big as I thought.
Jake: Dude, shut the hell up with that nasty ass shit already!
Shawn: Just saying....
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James open fire onto the Mother Eight-Legged Titan, but the gunfire has no effect.
Jake: This is just pissing the bitch off!
James: Its eyes! Aim for its eyes!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James manage to shoot one of the Mother Eight Legged Titans eyes, incapacitating it as it begins to birth fresh off-spring.
Kyle: That is fucking disgusting.
James: Ugh.....I am forever traumatized.
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James manage to kill the fresh off-spring of the Eight-Legged Titans, before Shawn manages to take out another eye.
Shawn: Bam! That hurt, bitch?!
The Mother Eight-Legged Titan roars, before Kyle equips a grenade and tosses it right into the Mother Eight-Legged Titans mouth. The grenade explodes, critically damaging the Mother Eight-Legged Titan as it begins to run around in panic, destroying the support beams of the structure in the process.
Jake: Oh, shit! She's going crazy!
Kyle notices an exit in the chaos.
Kyle: I don't give a damn where this goes as long as it's outta this death-trap!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James manage to reach the exit as the structure falls apart, killing the Mother Eight-Legged Titan in the process. The elevator in the exit takes Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James back to the surface where they spot a pack of floating barges.
Shawn: Oh, yeah! Plenty of selections, ladies and gents! Pick a sweet model!
Suddenly, an small army of Condemned on Manticores along with the giant Queen Wasp appears as Mina, in her own advanced Condemned armor, emerges from the Queen Wasp controls to notice Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James.
Mina: Kyle.....it's him. Alert the fleet. I want all our men guarding the outposts between here and Perseus.....make sure he dies this time.
James: Goddamn it. She's still alive?! How the hell did she escape fuckin flood?!
Kyle: so she's still running shit, huh?
Shawn: Holy shit. Look at the size of that thing, man!
Kyle: You'll be dead soon, bitch.
Kyle looks at Jake, who is staring at Mina with a look of confusion and betrayal.
Kyle: Jake?
Jake: Yeah....sorry....
Mina deploys small turret like creatures from the nest of the Queen Wasp creature, before fleeing.
James: Did that thing just give birth to small turrets?! Man, the timeline between 2033 to now is freaky fucking year!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James shoot down the small turret creatures, before barges deploy Gorgon Condemned with advanced crossbows.
James: Kyle, we could just grab one of those barges!
Kyle: They're not close enough!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James fight off the Condemned forces, before reaching the garage of the tower and sealing the exit.
Jake: Hey, Kyle.....it makes sense that Mina's behind all this.
Kyle: Yeah, it's her we're going to have to fight through. The bees will just fly as long as their queen's alive.
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James take the elevator up to the upper floor, before a barge arrives.
Kyle: Anyone up for grabbing the barge and getting the fuck out of here?
Jake: I second that!
Kyle: Let's do it then!
Kyle, Jake, Shawn and James fight off the attacking Condemned, before finally seizing a Condemned barge. James and Shawn dispose of the dead Condemned.
Shawn: That's a helluva long drop.
James: I'm putting in the nav system now.
James inserts navigation system into barge controls.
James: Okay, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to wasteland airlines. I hope you're having a very comfortable flight, but we're fortunately out of peanuts and drinks. Ohh....look at that, if you look to your left, you'll see the beautiful sightline of Archly gate, the heavily fortified fort set at the south of the border.
James turns to Jake.
James: Uh, it is beautiful, right?
Jake: Huh.....Margaret calls it the "fortified shithole".
Jake walks up to Kyle, who is staring out into the distance.
Jake: So, it's got to be Mina that's holding Dad, Kyle.
Kyle: Yeah, she is...she knows we're coming for her.....do you know something that I don't about her?
Jake: no.....
Kyle: Jake, if you know something about Mina, you can-
Jake: I don't know anything, Kyle.
