STORY:
Normally, General Hayes offered Duke a hearty handshake and a cup of coffee
before a mission briefing. Today, though, there were such pleasantries. Duke
had been ordered straight into the General's office and not even offered a
chair. He tapped his foot impatiently until the General spoke.
"At 18:47pm yesterday aftermoon, we lost contact with the Hades Facility,
An EDF R&D (Research & Design) base built underground in the Arizona
desert. No transmissions were recieved before contact was lost.
"Your job, Duke, is to go enter the facillity and find out what happened to
the people who work there. When you're done, transmit a call signal on
frequency 1-5-2-9 and we'll send in a helicopter to pick you up. Now get
going."
"Wait, wait." Duke protested. "What exactly does this place research?"
"I can't tell you that, Duke. It's top secret."
"Don't give me that BS, General! I can't just go in unprepared!"
The General sighed. "Duke, I can't tell you because, frankly, I don't know.
Only a select few members of the CIA have high enough clearance to access
the Hades database." The General leant in closer. "You'll have to find out
what they've been doing from their computer system, which is still mostly
functional. All I've been able to find out is that we've recently been
shipping the corpses of the aliens you killed last year."
The General handed Duke a file. "Here's all the information I could get
on Hades. Good luck, Duke."
------ CIA FILE: TOP SECRET (For your eyes only) -----
The Hades Facility is an experimental underground complex
utilising the latest in 21st Century materials and archtecture.
The discovery of Bi-polymer compounds in 2012 meant that, for the
first time, an underground structure could withstand the pressures
of the rock above without the need for supports - thusly, the Hades
Facility is spacious and open, for the most part, without the need
for large quantities of visible beams and struts.
This new style allows for a working environment as spacious as
any state-of-the-art office building and allows employees to work
in a pleasant environment.
In addition to a large and well-equipped office complex, the
Hades Facility also boasts a number of technologically advanced
research laboratories, an infirmary, storage areas and a helipad
to allow subtle ingress and egress of personnel. In case of
attack from a hostile force, the Hades complex has a highly-trained
team of security personnel, an armory and even instant communicans
across the site thanks to an Intranet.
