At the Prime Kronos Facility, Ryder and Barnes are talking.
Ryder: How do you feel?
Barnes: Like a fucking one-man army.
Ryder: Good.....we need to recover a Xyphan power core at one of our abandoned power plant in the north....time to put that serum to the test.....
Barnes: Oh....Xyphan Power Core....that's going to be too easy...especially with these kind of tricks....
Barnes cracks his neck, before Barnes gets dressed into his armor, before stepping into a Sphinx aircraft where Brock and Jackal are also present.
Brock: How you feelin, Commander?
Barnes: Like a motherfuckin beast....
The Sphinx takes off from the airfield. Meanwhile, at the abandoned Kronos Power Plant, Kyle, Shawn, Nathan, James, Billy, Sarah, Ashley, Beth, Caleb, Walter, Ricardo, Catherine and Cassandra examine the plant.
Catherine: Shit....I've forgotten that there's still abandoned places like this....either power went out or someone better took over....
Nathan: Okay....let's make this quick....Cassandra....Ashley...you stay in the RV with Billy..
Cassandra: Why me?
Nathan: It's just-
Cassandra: I can handle myself...
Nathan: I just need someone to help Ashley keep an eye on the RV....okay? All right...everyone....let's go...
Ashley and Cassandra stay behind to guard the RV while everyone else walks towards the Power Plant.
Shawn: Anyone else feelin nervous?
Nathan: Hey, boy scout, you want to stay and help the girls with the RV; be my guest.
Shawn: Just saying....we should've known that place was infested...
Nathan: Yeah, we should've...maybe Eli...maybe Blake would be alive right now...but.....fuck it...
Kyle walks with Sarah.
Kyle: You okay?
Sarah: Yeah, it's just.....Blake....he wanted to be with me and I just....I just kept blowing him off....he wasn't like Thomas, you know? He was a nice guy, but-but I just didn't want to give him a chance I should've...I feel....I feel guilty like I caused this....
Kyle: Stop. Okay....he wouldn't want you blaming yourself....it wasn't your fault...what happened to Blake and Eli....we didn't want it to happen, but...we knew not everyone was going to make it back...
Sarah: How do we tell Daniel about Blake? Alexandria? Maya? Cassandra....she...she-
Kyle: We'll burn that bridge when we get there.
The survivor search through the abandoned power plant facility, travelling deeper and eventually reaching the computers as James examines the computer.
James: Hmm....looks like someone managed to set up some kind of com link....that's weird...they halfway through the power cycle....Maybe, Mr. Jax can locate a power core for us...
Mr. Jax decloaks, before releasing a cord that plugs into the computer, downloading what remains in the computer and presenting a holograph of the power plant facility, locating a power core.
Kyle: Looks like our power core's in the central control room....I'll go get it.
Nathan: I'll back you up.
Shawn: Catherine and me will tag along too.
Nathan: All right...the rest of y'all stay here.
Kyle, Shawn, Nathan and Catherine depart as James, Sarah, Ricardo, Walter, Caleb and Beth stay behind. Kyle, Shawn, Nathan and Catherine break into the central control building as they turn their flashlights on and begin searching the perimeter.
Nathan: Let's split up....Kyle and I will take down here. You two take upstairs.
Shawn: Got it...
Shawn and Catherine check the upper level as Catherine enters a room with medicine. Catherine begins to take the remaining medicine out of the room while Shawn looks around. Shawn notices Kyle searching the lower level with Nathan. Shawn thinks about what Ryder said about Kyle killing Burton and then equips a suppressor to his assault rifle nozzle. Shawn kneels and aims his rifle at Kyle, getting Kyle in his sights. Catherine returns and notices this, but does not say anything. Shawn prepares to squeeze the trigger, but hesitates, getting flashbacks to when they were children. After hearing the voices of their children selves and some hesitation, Shawn is unable to pull the trigger because of the bond he's recreated with Kyle and then lowers his rifle. Shawn then quietly to himself.
Shawn: Fuck....I can't....I can't...
Shawn notices Catherine, who smiles, proud of Shawn.
Shawn: How long have you been standing there?
Catherine: A while.....
Shawn stands up.
Shawn: Why didn't you stop me?
Catherine: Because I knew you couldn't do it...you wouldn't.....he's your friend...you grew up with him...
Shawn: You know.....I sometimes ask.....did Kyle really kill my father? I mean.....he-
Catherine: Shawn.....you're not Ryder....that's what makes you better than him.
Nathan locates a Xyphan power core, before calling to Kyle.
Nathan: Kyle! Found one!
Kyle walks over to Nathan.
Nathan: Here..... Let me see your backpack.
Kyle turns around as Nathan places the Xyphan Core into Kyle's backpack. Shawn and Catherine reunite with Kyle and Nathan.
Kyle: Y'all good?
Shawn: Yeah....yeah.....we're good....Kyle-
Suddenly, the sound of a Sphinx aircraft is heard.
Kyle: oh, no!
Shawn: Zeus Corps!
Nathan: What the hell are they doing here?!
The Sphinx Aircraft lands in the field of the Power Plant, before Barnes, Brock, Jackal and the other Zeus Corps Soldiers depart. Suddenly, one of the Zeus Corps Soldier's is shot by Ricardo with his rifle, causing a fire fight between the survivors and the Zeus Corps Soldiers. Kyle, Shawn, Catherine and Nathan sprint to aid the survivors while Brock tosses an electric grenade and that stuns James, Sarah, Walter, Caleb, Beth and Ricardo. The Zeus Corps Soldiers move in and take the survivors hostage. Barnes and Brock walk into the room.
Barnes: Well, well, well....what have we here?
Kyle, Nathan, Shawn and Catherine close in on the power plant building as Ashley calls on Nathan's radio.
Ashley: Nathan! We heard gunshots! What the hell is going on?!
Nathan: Zeus Corps! They're here! You and Cassandra stay in the RV! We got this!
Kyle, Nathan, Shawn and Catherine close in while Barnes begins to interrogate the survivors.
Barnes: So, what are you all doing here?
James: We're just looking for electricity for our city, man.....We don't want any trouble....
Barnes: Hmm....see the thing is....we're looking for the same damn thing....it's quite a coincidence on how we're both looking for power....so how bout this...we-
Barnes recognizes James.
Barnes: Wait....I know you.....you're Burton's boy....his youngest boy....which means you must be were with Desipich....
James: I don't know who you're talking about....
Barnes: Now, didn't your disgrace of a general Daddy ever tell you it's bad to lie, boy?
Kyle, Nathan, Shawn and Catherine sneak into the power plant building.
Kyle: Catherine. Shawn. Split up. You two take the high ground.
Shawn and Catherine travel to the higher level, before Kyle and Nathan sneak upstairs, spotting James, Walter, Sarah, Caleb, Beth and Ricardo being interrogated.
Barnes: Your lies are as bad as your smell, kid....Where is he?
James: I'm telling you. I don't know where he is....
Barnes: Okay....
Barnes grabs Ricardo and snaps his neck by twisting his head at 180 degrees.
Nathan: Son of a bitch!
Barnes: You know, I'm not a very patient man. Do you know why I'm interested in Desipich's whereabouts?
Beth: Well, I'm going to guess he must've fucked your drunken whore of a mom or something because-
Caleb: Beth!
Barnes aims his revolver at Beth
Barnes: You!....are next.
Barnes turns to James.
Barnes: Unless the kid tells me where Kyle is...
Walter: Don't tell this motherfucker shit!
Jackal: Shut up!
Jackal smacks Walter in the temple with the revolver.
Nathan: I can take a shot from here. Kill this prick.
Kyle: No....that's Barnes' older brother.
Nathan: What?
Kyle: I was under his command during my time....look, I'll tell you later, but right now isn't the time...I'm going to see if I can get around them...
Kyle walks off.
Nathan: You better hurry.
Shawn and Catherine sneak up to the upper level to notice a soldier watching the interrogation as Barnes continues to ask questions about Kyle's whereabouts.
James: Kyle Desipich...is back home....he's in a town...which we've found....
Barnes: Well, what town is that?
James: Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you.
Barnes: Well, fuck it....I tried to be nice.
Barnes nods to a Zeus Corps Soldier, who aims his rifle at the back of Beth's head.
Caleb: No!
Brock hits Caleb in the back of the head with the butt of his rifle.
Nathan: Fuck this!
Nathan stands up and runs to the Zeus Corps Soldiers.
Kyle: Nathan! No! Goddamn it!
Nathan opens fire onto the Zeus Corps Soldiers, killing a few as the soldier preparing to execute Beth is shot in the head, but his finger pulls the trigger, in slow motion, shooting Beth in the lower abdomen.
Caleb: Beth!
Sarah: No!
The Zeus Corps Soldier in the upper level prepares to shoot Kyle, but is grabbed by Catherine.
Zeus Corps Soldier: Dr. Ramirez?
Catherine pushes the Zeus Corps Soldier off the edge, killing him in the fall. Catherine is shocked to see what she has done.
Catherine: Oh....oh...fuck...what did I do? What did I just do?!
Barnes: Fall back! We're not here for them! We'll worry about them later!
Barnes, Brock, Jackal and the remaining soldiers retreat while the survivors stand up onto their feet, grabbing the weapons. Beth grabs a pistol, but struggles to stay on her feet.
Caleb: Beth, are you okay?
Beth: I'm fine....it's just a flesh wound....get me a beer....and I'll be right as rain....now, c'mon....Kyle, you got a core?
Kyle: Yeah....Yeah...I got it...
Caleb turns to Nathan.
Caleb: Dude, what the hell were you thinking?
Nathan: Um...I'm thinking you're welcome would suffice...
Caleb: You got my sister shot!
Beth: Guys! Caleb! Stop! I said I'm fine...
Beth grunts.
Sarah: She needs medical treatment! Now!
Kyle: Okay, now let's go!
James talks in his radio.
James: Cassandra, this is James! We're going to need you to bring the RV to us! We're on the south side of the main power plant building! Beth's hurt!
The survivors ravel throughout the facility as the Sphinx Aircraft pulls out with Brock carrying a Xyphan core. Beth struggles to keep on her feet as Sarah is forced to help her. The survivors step outside while Sarah sets Beth down.
Sarah: Rest here, Beth...okay....my sister and Cassandra are coming to pick us up...
Shawn: Popping a flare.
Shawn pulls out a flare gun and shoots it into the air, signaling Cassandra and Ashley, who drive the RV to the survivors.
Kyle: There's our ride. Let's go!
Beth stands up, but then begins to feel weakened.
Beth: Caleb....Caleb...I don't think I can-
Beth falls onto the ground.
Caleb: Well, I guess that'll teach you not to smart off a-
Caleb turns and notices Beth on the ground.
Caleb: Beth?
Caleb sets his shotgun down and tends to Beth, carrying her in his arms.
Caleb: no...no...Hey...hey....Beth....c'mon....c'mon...stay with me! Beth! It's okay...
Beth: Caleb....
Beth coughs up blood.
Caleb: Hey....come...goddamn it...stay with me...
Kyle, Shawn, Nathan, Billy, Catherine, Cassandra, Sarah, Ashley, Walter and James return to find Caleb cradling his dying sister.
Caleb: C'mon! Don't you fucking die on me, Beth! Beth! Beth!
Beth dies to her wounds. Caleb sheds tears.
Caleb: (crying) Beth! Don't do this...don't do this to me....don't fucking leave me....don't leave me....Beth...Beth!
Shawn approaches the mourning Caleb and touches his shoulder.
Caleb: No! No! NO!
