The Story So Far
You get the phone call at 4 a.m. By 5:30 you're in the secret
installation.
The commander explains tersely, "It's about the Slipgate device.
Once
we perfect these, we'll be able to use them to transport people
and
cargo from one place to another instantly.
"An enemy codenamed Quake, is using his own slipgates to insert
death
squads inside our bases to kill, steal, and kidnap..
"The hell of it is we have no idea where he's from. Our top
scientists
think Quake's not from Earth, but another dimension. They say
Quake's
preparing to unleash his real army, whatever that is.
"You're our best man. This is Operation Counterstrike and you're
in
charge. Find Quake, and stop him ... or it ... You have full
authority to
requisition anything you need. If the eggheads are right, all
our lives are
expendable.."
While scouting the neighborhood, you hear shots back at the
base
Damn, that Quake bastard works fast! He heard about Operation
Counterstrike, and hit first. Racing back, you see the place
is overrun.
You are almost certainly the only survivor. Operation Counterstrike
is
over. Except for you.
You know that the heart of the installation holds a slipgate.
Since
Quake's killers came through, it is still set to his dimension.
You can use
it to get loose in his hometown. Maybe you can get to the asshole
personally. You pump a round into your shotgun, and get moving.
