''A flashcard fades in, indicating it is 20 years in the past. Sirens blare in an unknown town in Urzikstan, which is under attack by General Roman Barkov's forces.''

''A young Farah Karim is trapped beneath a pile of rubble within a destroyed building, struggling to free her herself as rescue teams swarm above. Sirens and screaming can be heard above.''

Walid: Fatima?! Farah, Hadir?!

Rescue members are heard chatting above.

Rescuer 1: Let's keep searching this area; Come on, come on- There could still be people in there!; Keep looking! There could be more survivors!; Listen for movement!; Don't stop, more people may be trapped underneath!; Listen closely for voices in the rubble!; There may be others, keep digging!; We'll get you out, don't worry..!; Pay attention- Even if we don't see them, we may hear them!

Rescuer 3: It's close; Pass me the shovel...

Farah frees her arm from the rubble, revealing her dead mother beside her.

Farah: Mama... Please wake up, mama...

''Farah grabs a brick to her left, causing rubble to fall. She reaches for the brick again, and bangs it on a panel above to attract help. The rescuers respond to the sound above.''

Rescuer 1: Quiet! Quiet! I heard something...!

Rescuer 3: Did you hear that?

Walid: That's them, I told you!

(If the player waits after banging the brick, different lines are heard from a rescuer.

Rescuer 1: If you can hear me, make that sound again!; Make some noise if you can move...

Rescuer 2: Knock again if you can hear me!)

(If the player waits after hitting it again.

Rescuer 2: Keep making noise so we can find you!)

After hitting the panel once again, a rescuer removes it and discovers Farah underneath.

Rescuer 3: Stay calm, we're going to get you out!

Rescuer 2: There's a child down here, hurry! Clear that rubble!

Rescuers come over to remove most of the rubble above Farah.

Rescuer 2: Bring the saw, we've got someone here! Cover your eyes...!

A rescuer uses a circular saw to cut through the rebar above Farah.

Rescuer 2: Help me lift this!

Rescuer 3: Lift! Lift!

Rescuer 1: Careful, Careful!

The rescuers remove the debris and uncover Farah.

Rescuer 3: I see her!

Rescuer 2: She's okay! It's a girl! Very young...!

Walid: That's my daughter!

Rescuer 3: Pass her here! I got her!

Rescuer 2: Come on! Get her out!

Rescuer 1: You're safe now! You're safe now...

The rescuer lifts Farah out of the rubble and prepares to pass her to another rescuer, but Walid picks her up instead.

Walid: Give her to me! Farah: Baba! Walid: Oh, my sweet Farah! Thank god you are back!

Farah: Mama!

Farah and Walid stare back at the crumbled building, as rescuers extract the corpses of a young child and Farah's mother.

Rescuer 3: There's no one else, brother!

Walid: No-! No...! Wait! Where is my son?! Farah! Farah, where is Hadir?

Farah: We left him home, to study...

''Russian aircrafts fly across the town, bombing the land in the distance. A shockwave sends in a wave of sand and dust into the town, and Walid hurriedly carries Farah away. ''

Farah: Mama-!

''Walid: Mother's gone, Farah. She's gone. It's just us.''

Rescuer 1: This way! Hurry up!

Walid: We will find Hadir, and leave town, okay?

Walid comes toward his friend, Shadi, who calls after him.

Shadi: Walid! Walid!

Walid: Shadi!

Shadi: They are looking for resistance fighters. We have to go, now!

Walid: I can't. My son is still at home!

Shadi: I will help you, brother! This way!

Shadi leads Walid and Farah through the town.

Farah: Baba, I'm scared.

Walid: Don't be afraid, sweetheart- we're together...

Civlian Male 1: The Russians! They're coming!

A truck filled with Russian soldiers appears, and the soldiers approach the civilians.

Shadi: There are children here! We are unarmed!

Shadi: No... No...

''The Russians open fire on the civilians, killing Shadi, along with many other civilians and children. Walid and Farah evade them by running into an alleyway. Walid puts Farah down.''

Walid: Sweetheart, I'll go ahead and make sure it's safe. Keep behind me.

Farah: Yes, baba, I will!

Walid: Okay, that's my girl. Do as I say, and you will be safe...

''Walid walks ahead and checks the alleyway. ''

Walid: Okay, let's go.

''Walid signals Farah to follow him through the alleyway. Walid stops and peeks around a corner.''

Walid: This way.

(If the player doesn't follow him.

Walid: Come to me, Farah!; Stay with me, Farah!; Stay with me, sweetheart; Run, Farah! Now!; It's safe, Farah. Come!; Up here, sweetheart!; Farah, come!)

Walid: Now, sweetheart! Follow me. Don't let the Russian see you.

Walid directs Farah across the street, where Russian soldiers and civilians are heard conversing.

Civlian Male 1: Bring  water! Get the bandages!

Civlian Male 2: What's that sound?

Civilian Male 2: No, we have to take them to a hospital!

Civlian Male 1: They won't make it! W'll sew them here.

Russian Soldier 2: -No, he helps the resistance.

Russian Soldier 2: Let him suffer.

Russian Soldier 2: Find them- If they help terrorists, they are terrorists.

Russian Soldier 3: There are more in the house.

''A Russian truck drives by, and the soldiers fire gas bombs into the streets. Walid tells Farah not to breathe as civlians as heard speaking.''

Civilian Male 1: Please! No!

Civlian Male 2: Have mercy!

Walid: Cover your mouth, Farah! Don't breathe, it's poison!

Farah covers her mouth and follows Walid into the house.

(If the player stays behind as the gas spreads. Walid: Farah, the gas will kill us! Get in here! In the house, Farah- Listen to me... please.)

Walid: Hurry, Farah! We're home! The two hastily enter the house and Walid locks the door behind him.

Walid: Hadir? Hadir?!

Hadir: Baba! I heard the bombs. I closed the windows, like you told me.

Walid: Good boy. We'll be safe from the gas, for now. Come with me to the kitchen, both of you.

Hadir: Where's mama?

Walid: Mama's not coming. I'm sorry, my boy.

Hadir: Why are they doing this, baba?

Walid: They think we help the rebels. Walid grabs a gas mask from the kitchen cabinet and hands it to Hadir.

Walid: Here, take this mask, okay?

Hadir: Do we have one for Farah?

Walid: You'll need your own. I'll help your sister. come. Walid lays down a back pack on the table, and hands two cellphones to Farah and Hadir.

Walid: Here, take these phones. Use them if we get separated.

(If the player stays away from the table. Walid: We're in the kitchen, Farah, come!; Hadir, where's Farah? Where's your sister?; Farah, come now, we don't have much time! Come!)

(If the player waits by the table without taing the phone. Walid: Farah, take the phone. We may need them; The phone will help if you're lost. Hold onto it, my little one.)

Farah picks up the cellphone.

Walid: Okay. We'll cross the bridge and go to the mountains. We'll be safe there. Come!

The three walk over to the front door.

Hadir: What if they catch us, Baba?

Walid: They will take you away and lock you up.

Hadir: I don't want to go.

Walid: Okay, listen, I know. We'll come back, I promise. Hadir, you be strong for your sister now, okay?

Walid points at Hadir's heart, and then his head. Walid: You keep mama here... and you keep this clear. That's how we survive. You understand?

Hadir: Yes, baba.

Walid: Listen, when we get outside, you stay with me, okay?

A Russian soldier designated as J-12 breaches into the house as they are leaving.

Hadir: Baba-!

Walid: Get behind me!

Walid: Please, there's no one here. It's only my children, please!

''Walid throws his backpack at J-12, and the two engage in a fight. ''

Hadir: No!

''Hadir attempts to intervene, but gets thrown away and incapacitated by J-12. Walid stabs J-12, and gets thrown back and beaten. ''

Farah: BABA...!

Walid: Run!

''Walid is then shot multiple times by J-12, causing him to pass out. If Farah intervenes during the fight, J-12 will pick her up and subdue her.''

(If the player waits near the soldier after Walid is shot.

Farah: Hide!; Hide... Hide...!)

Farah hides within the household, and J-12 removes the knife from his torso.

J-12: ''сукин сын! Трахни тебя. Кусок дерьма. Rrgh! Бесполезное дерьмо... Аrgh... (Sonavabitch! Fuck you. Piece of shit. Rrgh! Worthless shit... Argh...)''

''J-12 stumbles into furniture, causing a sharp object to fall onto the ground. Russian J-13 contacts J-12.''

J-13: 12, отчет. отчет. (12, report. Report.)

J-12: Поиск дома к дому- Есть ребенок для босса... Должен ли я убить его? (Searching house to house- Got a kid for the boss... Should I kill him?)

J-13: Это заказы. Вы не можете нести это? (Those are the orders. Can't you carry him?)

J-13: У тебя есть больше чем один? (Do you have more than one?)

J-12: Нет, но как мне искать? (No, but how can I search?) J-13: Он будет живым щитом. (He'll be a human shield.)

J-12: Есть ли снайперы? (Are there snipers?)

J-13: Мы слышали отчеты. (We've heard reports.)

J-12: Где? (Where?)
