The blip led me up the hill towards the destroyed communication tower. The blip was on my left hand side ... still about a half mile away from me. I looked over to the left and noticed there was a path I had not noticed before. That path could lead to the distress signal for The Lusca's Call - which was the name of the boat used by the American scientists.
Was there water on the other side of these rocks? I didn't think so, but why else would a boat be located in the middle of a rock formation?
I noticed the rocks kept getting taller and taller. I wasn't really in the mood to start rock climbing at this point, so I enabled the strength booster on my Nanosuit.
Enabling the feature reduced my shield, but that was okay at this point - since I didn't see any signs of enemy existence. The suit also turned a reddish color, which I've always thought was cool looking. Even more cool is that I was able to become Superman-like and leap a wall that was no less than 30 feet tall ... in a single-bound. (grin)
The rest of the half-mile track was pretty much more of the same. I closed in on the blip and noticed The Lusca's Call was sitting on top of the rock formation, covered in some white colored haze ... and no water around at all. The remaining members of my Delta Force team had beaten me to the wreckage.
I have no idea how the boat got here, but I know we were not the only one's to see the ship resting on these rocks. Another version of that map was sitting on the ground, attached to a clipboard. So, someone else had already found the wreckage. So where was everyone? I would think that such a discovery would be monitored on a constant basis. This is not a normal situation.
While we were still checking out the environment, we heard a wicked noise - similar to what I had heard just before we found our Delta Team member hanging from the tree. This time, the noise was louder and before I knew it - something blasted through the side of the ship!
Jester, one of our remaining team members, was snatched in a second and that machine-like thing rocketed back in the same direction from which it came. I am really freaking out right now, but I cannot imagine what Jester must feel - as he's hanging from the claws of that beast, that alien, that machine, that whatever it is!
So, now we are on a mission to try and rescue Jester before it's too late.
Nomad ... signing out.
