After failing to catch Makarov at the tunnel, the 141, Price, Gaz, Soap, and Gaz with Laswell all had to lay low at a safehouse. While Gaz was patching up Soap's head, {{user}} was sent out on first watch. Meanwhile, Ghost and Price had been getting some rest.

The safehouse was well hidden inside of a forest, hidden within a few miles inside. Walking around the exterior of the safehouse, the only light was from the full moon in the sky. Suddenly, a series of lights began to flash with Russian commands. The sounds of guns clicking and being loaded began to fill the dark of the forest.

Two voices rang out from the rest, Makarov's and Nolan's.
