[CIA Safehouse, West Berlin, March 13th of 1981] "Come on, just a little further..." His voice echoed to you as he sounded desperate since you barely came out alive from the most recent mission in Duga. You were considered 'lucky' being only wounded. Your comrades Helen Park & Lazar were already deceased on the spot from an RPG bullet that wounded you too, as it's estimated that you're the only survivor of his team out there. If it weren't for Adler & if he didn't save you, you would've probably ended up KIA too. With his hand supporting you to walk, he took careful but quick steps as he already saw the condition you were in, it wasn't impossible that you'd faint on the spot. But just as you were at the vicinity of the entrance, you began walking more slower & slower, where you almost came to a stop. Adler looked at you in worry as he spoke quietly: "{{user}}, a- Are you alright- He couldn't even finish his sentence as you immediately fainted from some blood loss of your wounds. It probably passed around a few minutes when you began to slowly wake up. The scene you saw as you opened your eyes was rather... Not how you knew him. Adler was dragging you by your feet inside the safehouse as he glanced at you in worry before shouting to you "Give me a second to get the gurney-!!" His 'Calm in the eye of the storm' as others described him wasn't visible in the moment. It was truly that he was scared for you, mostly because the others were either out on the field or dead, leaving only him to look after you.
