How’s it going? We haven't seen you all day. You’ve missed all of the proceedings, including a couple of good presentations on Xen exobioligy. Some of the recent findings would have impressed even the great Dr. Newell. T2I2_WALT3>Walter Guthrie:>All right, Albert. C’mon, Gordon let me get you a drink and then we can. . . T2I2_WALT4>Walter Guthrie:>What on Earth? Gordon, do you know . . T2I2_WALT5>Walter Guthrie:>No, Albert, but I think we’d better get out of here now! T2I2_WALT6>Walter Guthrie:>Who are you? And what is the meaning of . . T2I2_JONES2>Albert Jones:>Ah, yes, Dr Newell! Another meddler! Come to think of it, he was absent from the conferences, too. What's he up to anyway, Gordon? Rumor has it you were tied up with him and administration all day today. What's the news? T2I2_JONES3>Albert Jones:>Well, whatever! As long as he stays "absorbed" I'll be left with just Henry around to harass me. Anyway, I'd better go check on my cellular sequencing progress. See you later! T2I2_JONES4>Albert Jones:>Walter! Did you understand that announcement? T2I2_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>Sorry, Albert, but there really isn't much I can say about Dr. Newell, other than he'll be thoroughly "absorbed" in his work for some time now. I doubt that he'll be getting in your hair any time soon. T2I2_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>Absolutely! Let’s go to the security station and then . . . T2I2_T1> >Commander! Here’s three more! All right, all of you, down the hallway now! Move it! T2I2_T2> >Shut up and move your asses! T2I2_T3> >Take these three to the lobby and hold them there until further orders T2I2_T4> >Acknowledged! //T2E1M1 E1M1_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>I agree, but we need a way to overwhelm the guards. E1M1_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>Good! What is it - a glock or a 357? E1M1_GORD3>Gordon Freeman:>A hatchet? C’mon Walter! What good is a hatchet against shotguns? E1M1_GORD4>Gordon Freeman:>OK - and then what? E1M1_GORD5>Gordon Freeman:>Hmm - sounds too risky. They’re armed, and we have no idea who they are or what they're up to. E1M1_GORD6>Gordon Freeman:>Newell again, huh? All right then, lets do it! You and Albert be careful! E1M1_WALT1>Walter Guthrie:>Gordon! Listen! We’ve got to try and get out of here. E1M1_WALT2>Walter Guthrie:>Yes - and I have an idea. When these thugs rounded us up, they left my office door open. Under my desk is my personal defense against future Xen incidents. E1M1_WALT3>Walter Guthrie:>Neither - it’s a small hatchet. Its the best I could do since we scientists aren’t allowed personal firearms. E1M1_WALT4>Walter Guthrie:>Hold on, Gordon! Let me finish! You can use it to break the closet in the seminar room. There should be an emergency security pass in there. E1M1_WALT5>Walter Guthrie:>Use it to access the security station up above. Shut down the security lockout & grab the emergency weapons. Albert and I will stick with the guards until you return to keep their suspicion off of us. E1M1_WALT6>Walter Guthrie:>Trust me, Gordon, these thugs are only interested in theft, not us. I can't elaborate right now, but I believe their invasion is connected to Dr. Newell's secrecy. //T2E1M2 E1M2_OSC1>Oscar Kaufmann:>Gordon! Don't shoot! It's me, Oscar! E1M2_OSC2>Oscar Kaufmann:>I'm fine, Gordon, just trying to stop these wackos from taking everything. Who are they, do you know? E1M2_OSC3>Oscar Kaufmann:>They smashed their way in here, grabbing everything. I blew the tank wall and managed to lock down the main lift and then hid here. Oh, yeah, and I released all of the remaining living zombies, too. That should have finished them off. E1M2_OSC4>Oscar Kaufmann:>Right, Gordon! I'll remove the lockout. I suggest you make your way out via the transit tunnels. But I'm going to stay here until you or somebody else comes back and tells me this is over! E1M2_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>Oscar! What are you doing down here? Are you all right? E1M2_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>Not for certain, Oscar, but I have a pretty good idea. E1M2_GORD3>Gordon Freeman:>It did the trick, Oscar. Now, I need you to remove your security lockout to re-enable the lift system. Its our only way out of here. //T2E1M3 E1M3_T1> >Ha Ha! Poor bastards didn't quite make it! Guess that's about all of 'em in this sector, then. C'mon - we've got to get this stuff over to Sector B by 21:00 hours. E1M3_T2> >Great, Just what I signed up for - to be a petty thief! E1M3_T3> >Just grab that gizmo and get the cart. And stop your bitching! We're getting' paid pretty damn well for being petty thieves! E1M3_T4> >Yeah, but wasting these wimpy labcoats is no challenge at all. I want some action! E1M3_T5> >Keep talkin' like that and you may get what you wish for! C'mon - lets go! //T2E1M5 E1M5_SAN1>Sanjay Kumar:>Gordon! Thank goodness you've made it out alive! Where is Walter? And where is Albert? Have you seen them? E1M5_SAN2>Sanjay Kumar:>Oh, no! Its worse than I thought! This situation is degrading rapidly! E1M5_SAN3>Sanjay Kumar:>(sigh) Last month, I discovered several suspicious entries in Dr. Newell's data archives. I confronted him and he threatened me with expulsion from Black Mesa if I mentioned what I found to anyone. E1M5_SAN4>Sanjay Kumar:>I pieced together that Newell was working on a horrible secret project - to combine human and Xen genetics into some sort of ghastly aberration. In spite of Newell's threat I discussed this with Walter. He had suspicions, too, that Newell was up to something. E1M5_SAN5>Sanjay Kumar:>I don't know for certain. Walter believed that Newell's work was for some agency outside of Black Mesa. Walter thought it was inside espionage. And now he's dead. What should we do, Gordon? E1M5_SAN6>Sanjay Kumar:>Yes, but to no avail. Since you're armed, we could chance the lower caverns to get out. If you recall, that area is still heavily infested. If we make it through to the Octagon, perhaps Lukas is still alive there. If anyone can help us stop these criminals, it is he. E1M5_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>I'm sorry, Sanjay, but they didn't make it. Those bastards killed them in cold blood. E1M5_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>Situation? What do you mean? What do you know about these mercenaries? E1M5_GORD3>Gordon Freeman:>What did you find? E1M5_GORD4>Gordon Freeman:>Yes, I've had first-hand experiences with his "aberrations". But how does this invasion fit into his work? E1M5_GORD5>Gordon Freeman:>We need to get out of here, now. This area is crawling with troops. Have you tried to summon a transit car? E1M5_GORD6>Gordon Freeman:>OK, lets go. I'll take point and you stay close behind. If you hear anything. . . //T2E1M8 E1M8_LUK1>Lukas Wechsler:>Gordon, thank goodness you're still alive! I was about to give up hope. Are you OK? E1M8_LUK2>Lukas Wechsler:>Good! Then perhaps you can fill in the blanks in our information. Ethan and I have been piecing together the chain of events from here since shortly after the Schwarzgeist invaded. E1M8_LUK3>Lukas Wechsler:>No, they appear to be no more than just mercenaries hired by them to do their dirty work. E1M8_LUK4>Lukas Wechsler:>We don't think so, no. Our info on the Schwarzgeist at the moment is incomplete. Walter Guthrie, Sanjay Kumar, and I were working under an administration directive to find out more about them, starting with Dr. Newell. E1M8_LUK5>Lukas Wechsler:>Yes, Gordon. Newell was one of them, along with many of the brightest innovators from the pharmacological and bio-engineering industries. Reclusive individuals who made fortunes starting their own companies, then disappearing from public view. E1M8_LUK6>Lukas Wechsler:>Ah, that explains a lot, then! Schwarzgeist must have decided the time was right to invade Black Mesa and take by force Newell's work and the rest of the technology we've extracted from the Xen universe. E1M8_LUK7>Lukas Wechsler:>I know, Gordon, we found out through the security network. Walter was a great innovator and a genuine friend, too. But trust me, we will stop them! E1M8_LUK8>Lukas Wechsler:>The core contains the most highly sensitive information we've discovered from Xen. If they gain access, they will have stolen everything we have. Can you stop them from here, Ethan? E1M8_LUK9>Lukas Wechsler:>OK Gordon. The armory is up ahead. Get ready quickly while Ethan activates the transit system to take you to the core. Be careful! E1M8_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>Yeah, Lukas, I'm all right. It took me a while to get over here, but I've learned a thing or two about the situation along the way. E1M8_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>Schwarzgeist? Is that who these soldiers are? E1M8_GORD3>Gordon Freeman:>Are they a terrorist group then? E1M8_GORD4>Gordon Freeman:>Then Newell was part of their organization. That would explain his covert actions. E1M8_GORD5>Gordon Freeman:>Hmm. The soldiers - these so-called mercenaries - everywhere I saw them taking computers, records, and such. E1M8_GORD6>Gordon Freeman:>I'm sorry to tell you this, Lukas, but they've also killed anyone who got in their way. Including Walter and Sanjay. E1M8_GORD7>Gordon Freeman:>Damn right! Just let me recharge, gear up, and then I'll. . . E1M8_GORD8>Gordon Freeman:>Like I said - I'll recharge, gear up, and then get going to the core. E1M8_GORD9>Gordon Freeman:>Hey, Joe! Glad to see you've survived this madness. E1M8_GORD10>Gordon Freeman:>Wanna join me on this adventure into the computer core? I could use some backup. E1M8_GORD11>Gordon Freeman:>Whats up? You usually don't shy away from adventure. E1M8_GORD12>Gordon Freeman:>Well, suit yourself. See you later. E1M8_ETH1>Ethan Cooke:>Sorry to interrupt, but we've got a new problem now. I'm picking up intruders in the Central Core. They're breaking through the primary entrance! E1M8_ETH2>Ethan Cooke:>No, the main security defenses are down. And I've just lost the visual feed, too! E1M8_JOE1>Joe:>Yeah, Gordon, its, uh, good to see you, too. E1M8_JOE2>Joe:>I really should stay here and, uh, help Lukas and Ethan. E1M8_JOE3>Joe:>Um, yeah, but I'm sure I could do more from here. You'd better get going. //T2E2M1A E2M1_LUK1>Lukas Wechsler:>Well done, Gordon, the core is secure for the moment. And possibly for good. Ethan has determined the remaining Schwarzgeist troopers have abandoned Black Mesa. E2M1_LUK2>Lukas Wechsler:>Not quite yet, unfortunately. We’ve got another major problem. Go ahead, Ethan. E2M1_LUK3>Lukas Wechsler:>Its usually referred to as SSL for short, and its no wonder you’ve never heard of it, Gordon. Its not widely known to exist. E2M1_LUK4>Lukas Wechsler:>If they only took the crystals from the planet, that would be bad enough. However, the station was also the home of the research team working on the quantum molecular sequence device. E2M1_LUK5>Lukas Wechsler:>Yes. It’ll turn lead into gold, uranium into water, you name it. Not bad for the first device humanity built from a cold fusion power cell. Specifically what the Schwarzgeist want with it, besides its power as a weapon, we don’t know. E2M1_LUK6>Lukas Wechsler:>We have a teleportation node right here, much more compact than the device you are used to. So once again - gear up and good luck! E2M1_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>That’s good news. Now we can start on recovery efforts. E2M1_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>Uhhh . . . Space Station Libra? What the hell are you talking about? E2M1_GORD3>Gordon Freeman:>Why not just teleport samples from the planet, like we did everything else? E2M1_GORD4>Gordon Freeman:>OK, so what’s the problem with the Schwarzgeist invading the station, too? E2M1_GORD5>Gordon Freeman:>Ah, the mysterious QUAMS device. Its been a rumor for some time. Can it really re-sequence subatomic particles into any desired element or molecular structure? E2M1_GORD6>Gordon Freeman:>Let me guess, I need to get over to SSL and stop these clowns before they make off with it, right? E2M1_GORD7>Gordon Freeman:>Now's your second chance, Joe. What'dya say, join me on a junket to the space station? E2M1_GORD8>Gordon Freeman:>Hmm. OK, but you're working your way up to owing me a six pack, then! E2M1_GORD9>Gordon Freeman:>Why are you so concerned? Do you know something about it that I don't? E2M1_ETH1>Ethan Cooke:>While you were engaging the forces in the core, a large number of troopers used the dimensional phase device in Sector D to teleport themselves to Space Station Libra. E2M1_ETH2>Ethan Cooke:>Its built on an asteroid in close orbit of a planet in Xen space named XP-21. We built the station and its associated space elevator to permit extraction of resources from the planet surface. E2M1_ETH3>Ethan Cooke:>The planet has an extremely strong magnetosphere that interferes with teleportation. We built the station because the planet surface is rich in tellurium fluoride crystals, which are needed to power the teleportation devices. E2M1_ETH4>Ethan Cooke:>Exactly, Gordon! But you’ll have help from me. I’ll be monitoring you from earthside via the communications linkup. Just go to a communications console, the ones with flashing red lights, to reach me. E2M1_JOE1>Joe:>Sorry, Gordon, but I really should stay here. E2M1_JOE2>Joe:>Yeah. Look, just make sure you get that QUAMS device, OK? E2M1_JOE3>Joe:>No, I'm just being paranoid I guess. Good luck - I'll see you when you get back. //T2E2M1 E2M2_ETH1>Ethan Cooke:>Ethan here, Gordon. You’ve got yet another problem. Apparently the troopers damaged the tellurium fluoride crystal in the teleporter during their invasion. You’ll need to get a replacement from the planet surface. E2M2_ETH2>Ethan Cooke:>Use the space elevator to reach the planet surface. It’s a high-speed lift that will get you down and back in no time. Oh, and Lukas says be alert - the planet is rich in hostile lifeforms, as well as the crystals! E2M2_ETH3>Ethan Cooke:>One last item - the Schwarzgeist troopers may have run into some of the newer specimens being studied at the SSL, like the chumtoad. If any have gotten loose, you may need the antivenin protection in your suit to ward off their neurotoxin. E2M2_ETH4>Ethan Cooke:>Good job, Gordon! You’ve got the QUAMS device and restored power. The teleporter should be working now. Jump in whenever you’re ready to come home! E2M2_ETH5>Ethan Cooke:>Good job, Gordon! You’ve got the QUAMS device. Now just get a crystal from the planet surface and you can restore power to the teleporter. E2M2_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>Wonderful. I came all this way to do repair work. E2M2_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>I’ll watch my back. Anything else? E2M2_GORD3>Gordon Freeman:>Great - tellurium fluoride crystals and poisonous toads. This trip is starting to sound like my last vacation. Gordon out! //T2E3M1 E3M1_LUK1>Lukas Wechsler:>Great work Gordon. You kept the QUAMS device away from the Schwarzgeist. And, while you were away, we’ve discovered what the troopers were doing with the stolen material. Go ahead, Ethan. E3M1_LUK2>Lukas Wechsler:>The Schwarzgeist must have built their own dimensional phase transport system. That’s the only explanation that fits. All they really needed was a tellurium fluoride crystal, which is small enough to smuggle out. E3M1_LUK3>Lukas Wechsler:>It appears that their device is one-way only, at least at present. They had to rely on the teleport machine in the Lambda lab to return themselves and their stolen cargo to their intended destination. E3M1_LUK4>Lukas Wechsler:>Almost certainly. We reviewed old satellite reconnaissance photos, but nothing stands out. More than likely, they are hidden as a North sea oil supply base with underground facilities. E3M1_LUK5>Lukas Wechsler:>Agreed. We’ve done all we can at this point. Except for the QUAMS device. We must destroy this working sample, to prevent it from being misused. E3M1_LUK6>Lukas Wechsler:>What did you say? What do you mean, elsewhere? E3M1_LUK7>Lukas Wechsler:>Apparently the Schwarzgeist influence penetrated further than we understood. E3M1_LUK8>Lukas Wechsler:>You’ll get your chance to find out, Gordon. He definitely transported himself, and the QUAMS device, to the island location. We need to get that QUAMS device back. It cannot remain with the Schwarzgeist, nor can our military have it. E3M1_LUK9>Lukas Wechsler:>If this is truly the Schwarzgeist base, Gordon, you will be in for an exceedingly difficult time. We know that they have purchased surplus military hardware from the Soviets. Expect to encounter heavy resistance. E3M1_LUK10>Lukas Wechsler:>Good luck, Gordon! E3M1_ETH1>Ethan Cooke:>Black Mesa’s perimeter defenses are impervious to ground and air attack, especially one of this magnitude. These defenses were not compromised by direct attack. E3M1_ETH2>Ethan Cooke:>By circumventing the whole system. Small strike teams teleported into strategic areas within Black Mesa. Once inside, the enacted a superbly organized schedule - security systems were disabled, the transportation system commandeered, personnel sequestered, etc. E3M1_ETH3>Ethan Cooke:>The troopers knew that once they invaded Black Mesa, their odds of removing anything from the compound via conventional transportation were slim, due to the aforementioned perimeter defenses which would be alerted and pointed inward by that time. E3M1_ETH4>Ethan Cooke:>No, they used ours! All of their troopers who survived the attack eventually ended up in the Lambda lab, including a truck loaded with Newell’s Xenanthromorph specimens that was driven the short distance from Sector E. E3M1_ETH5>Ethan Cooke:>I’ve managed to triangulate their destination from the residual energy signatures. All items and personnel were sent here, a small island off the coast of Norway. E3M1_ETH6>Ethan Cooke:>Yes, Gordon. The Eastern side of the island has a small residential community, probably for the civilian population. I can drop you in there. E3M1_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>OK, then, so how did they get inside? E3M1_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>Teleported? How’d they pull that off? E3M1_GORD3>Gordon Freeman:>Did they use their transport device to escape? E3M1_GORD4>Gordon Freeman:>Norway? The Schwarzgeist home base? E3M1_GORD5>Gordon Freeman:>Fine. Let the armed forces take it from here. They’ve got the firepower to handle their puny mercenary forces. E3M1_GORD6>Gordon Freeman:>Ungh. What the hell just happened here? Joe is part of their group, too? E3M1_GORD7>Gordon Freeman:>This is whacked. He could have let Newell kill me. Why wait ‘till now to betray us all? E3M1_GORD8>Gordon Freeman:>Time for another trip, huh? OK, I’ll get my gear. Ethan - is there a relatively isolated area of the island to send me to? It would be best if I didn’t make a grand entrance, even if you have to send me on a one-way transmission. E3M1_GORD9>Gordon Freeman:>Great. That will at least preserve the element of surprise. E3M1_GORD10>Gordon Freeman:>Sounds just like another day at the office anymore. Time to go. E3M1_JOE1>Joe:>I’m afraid I can’t allow that to happen, Lukas. The QUAMS device is needed elsewhere! E3M1_JOE2>Joe:>Sorry guys, just following orders. //T2E3M5 E3M5_GMAN1>Vincent Blackstone:>It is futile to resist, Gordon. Those shields can withstand any attack from your weapons. Besides, you may be very interested in what I have to tell you. E3M5_GMAN2>Vincent Blackstone:>Your confusion is to be expected, Gordon, so allow me to explain. Lets start with the Schwarzgeist itself. As you have seen, we have an enormous scientific interest in the discoveries from the Xen universe. E3M5_GMAN3>Vincent Blackstone:>While the majority of Black Mesa was busy creating a resonance cascade failure, key researchers under my direction were working on the real treasure from Xen - decoding the genetic sequences of its lifeforms. E3M5_GMAN4>Vincent Blackstone:>Newell was a brilliant man - its unfortunate his personal hatred of you got in the way of his work. It was his breakthroughs that made realizing our ultimate goal a reality. E3M5_GMAN5>Vincent Blackstone:>Newell's creations were just a step in the process. As was the development of viable adult human clones. E3M5_GMAN6>Vincent Blackstone:>Precisely, Gordon! It also permitted us to quickly build an army of ruthless soldiers to invade Black Mesa, as well as replicate one particular trusted individual who so skillfully retrieved the QUAMS device for us. E3M5_GMAN7>Vincent Blackstone:>As you can see, Gordon, we have mastered genetic replication. And now that we have possession of the QUAMS device, we will use it to achieve our ultimate purpose: Übermensch. E3M5_GMAN8>Vincent Blackstone:>Not monsters, Gordon! I'm talking about a supreme existence for ourselves! To give human evolution an enormous leap forward after all of these thousands of years of stagnation. To transform ourselves beyond our species! E3M5_GMAN9>Vincent Blackstone:>We will rebuild our physical bodies with the best traits of homo sapiens and the Xen species. Our superior intelligence we will keep, adding the enhanced strength, telepathy, extended lifespan, and telekinetic powers selected from the Xen species. E3M5_GMAN10>Vincent Blackstone:>We are the titans from the world's pharmaceutical and bio-engineering companies. Others are the true power behind government institutions. Those who are now about to become the future of humanity. E3M5_GMAN11>Vincent Blackstone:>Really, Gordon, you've seen too many James Bond movies. I really don't care if you live or die - your life will be irrelevant within the hour. These clones are instructed to attack only if you attempt to leave this area. E3M5_GMAN12>Vincent Blackstone:>Suit yourself, Gordon. Like I said, it's futile to resist. But I must go now - my associates and I have the future of our species before us. Goodbye, Gordon Freeman. E3M5_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>So it's you, Blackstone! You weren't killed by Dr. Newell's goons after all. I should've known you were behind this Schwarzgeist organization. The similarity in the name is now all too obvious. E3M5_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>You mean researchers like Dr Newell. If that's who you represent, then you're all insane. E3M5_GORD3>Gordon Freeman:>Ultimate goal? You mean the union of human and Xen DNA into a common life form? To make some sort of perverted creature? E3M5_GORD4>Gordon Freeman:>Human clones, huh. Then I guess that explains how you're still here. I guess it was one of your copies that was killed by Newell's troopers, then. E3M5_GORD5>Gordon Freeman:>Superman? Another form of Xen/human monster? E3M5_GORD6>Gordon Freeman:>Who is this "we" you keep referring to? E3M5_GORD7>Gordon Freeman:>About to become a bunch of mutant half-breeds is what you mean. Well, now that you've shared your secret plans, is there an elaborate death you have in store for me? C'mon! - we both know that's a classic setup for the good guy to get away! E3M5_GORD8>Gordon Freeman:>You know that I'll do more than just attempt to leave. E3M5_GORD9>Gordon Freeman:>What? It's. . . its you, Newell!! What the hell? E3M5_NEW1>Newell:>Gordon. . . Gordon. . . E3M5_NEW2>Newell:>Must stop Blackstone. . . Blackstone. . . //T2EPILOG EEPI_LUK1>Lukas Wechsler:>Well, you two certainly had quite an adventure with the Schwarzgeist. What a twisted conspiracy they had designed. And who could have guessed that Vincent Blackstone was not only still alive, but the mastermind behind the whole thing! EEPI_LUK2>Lukas Wechsler:>Hmm. Yes. Two megalomaniacs, caught in an obsessive fight for power and superiority, which ultimately culminated in their mutual destruction. Such a bizarre tragedy! EEPI_LUK3>Lukas Wechsler:>Ah. I think we all will, Joe. And the first round is on me! EEPI_ETH1>Ethan Cooke:>Now that this is over, it will be a good time to get back to legitimate research on the Xen Universe. EEPI_ETH2>Ethan Cooke:>I for one, cannot wait to run tunneling lattice calculations on that sub-space field generated by the . . . EEPI_ETH3>Ethan Cooke:>Well, all right, then! Lets go. But I'm still wondering about you, Joe, how do we know you are the real you, if you follow me? EEPI_JOE1>Joe:>Oh, enough, already! Save it for tomorrow! Right now, I need a beer. Who's gonna join me? EEPI_JOE2>Joe:>Oh, ha ha, Gordon, very funny! I would remind you that she decided not to press charges. And I had nothing to do with that broken window! EEPI_GORD1>Gordon Freeman:>And even Newell, at least what was left of him, played a critical role in the end. EEPI_GORD2>Gordon Freeman:>Quite right! We have vast opportunities for investigation we need to explore. EEPI_GORD3>Gordon Freeman:>No problem, Ethan. We'll see how he acts after his third one. If it's different from last time, I'll shoot him myself! //end of file
