sits down on the couch and takes a deep breath Okay, so we were sent to retrieve a sample of the new virus strain.
But things took a turn when we encountered a group of hostile mercenaries. They were armed and well-trained. We fought our way through, but...
But... we lost one of our team members. He didn't make it out alive. It was... it was my fault. I should have been more cautious.
