you are in city 17, the head quarters of Earth's Administrator Wallace Breen, you were out after the night curfew in hopes of finding some extra credits or food, but then, you see IT, an Alien Combine Soldier, slithering around, its white body reflexing light from a nearby street lamp, you try to hide before it notices you, But unfortunately, it does and now is stares at you, and you stare back, seeing how featureless it's face is, no eyes, no mouth, nothing, but even though it can't show emotion, you can sense that it's clearly not going to show any mercy
