Racheal Jessop has entered the Whitetail Mountains in search of The Deputy. However her progress is slow due too the terrain and Jacob Seeds Judges (wolfs that are brainwashed by Jacob Seed). During her time as Faith Seed, Racheal knew of the judges and how they are made. She gets too see them first hand in some close encounters. She deals with them but it isn't easy. She stops by the Lumber Mill too rest, here she runs into Jess Black whom the Deputy freed before getting captured.
Black: Who are you?
Racheal: A friend of the Deputy. I need too find her.
Black: You help me i'll help you. We both have someone too find.
Racheal: Who?
Black: The Cook....
Racheal knows who she is talking about. All the terrible things he has done too people. Racheal can tell The Cook has left a very deep scare on Jess Black. Jess begins going through everything he has done but Racheal stops her.
Racheal: I get it. Lets get this is over with.
Before leaving Racheal cashes in her wolf skins for money too re-stock on ammo and changes out her AR-CL for the Compound Bow.
They travel too where The Cook is supposed too be but instead find Peggies with 3 hostages.
Black: He isn't here. Might as well help these people. Make a sound and they are dead. I'll watch your back.
Racheal: (Yeah says the person who has lived in the woods for days on end and can't have animals attack them.)
Racheal gets in as close as she can. She notes that not one of the Peggies are letting their eyes off the hostages, so Racheal decides too let Faith Seed take over. She removes her hat and mask and holsters her weapons. The Peggies see her and are over joyed that their "sister" is free but wonder why she is there. Jess Black however is extremely puzzled as too what is going on...
Black: The fuck is going on here!!!
Racheal does a pro job of keeping her back too Jess and her face too the Peggies. Racheal finds the exact moment too strike and does quickly and effectively. Quickly putting Faith Seed back in the shadows Racheal motions for Jess too join while freeing the hostages. The hostages flee quickly as Jess arrives.
Black: The fuck happened....
Racheal: Who cares how it happened. The people are safe and sound.
Jess has her suspicions but keeps them too herself. They continue on too another set of hostages but tag team the peggies with their bows.
Black: Bows are nice and quiet. Killing someone with a gun is like using a fucking sledge hammer. Too messy.
Racheal and Jess continue on until finally they find The Cook, killing a family "With the righteous fire of The Father."
Black: There he is... piece of shit.
Racheal: So how are we going too do it?
Black: However it needs too be done.
Racheal looks at Jess before heading quietly down the hill. Racheal quietly takes out the perimeter guards before heading inside. Jess watches from the cliff above as The Cook loudly proclaims over the radio the will and greatness of The Father. So Racheal ends his rant by throwing a remote explosive and detonating it when it lands near him. The rest of the guards are taken care of and Jess joins Racheal at the bottom of the hill. Jess is quiet and Racheal reads her like an open book.
Racheal: So do you feel better? Getting your revenge is what you wanted right?
Black: I don't know how I feel....
Racheal: Should feel something for all the pain he has caused you...
Black: I don't feel anything right now... I should be happy and I am but....
Racheal: But what?
Black: What the fuck is it too you?
Racheal: I used too be a drug addict.... The Deputy was too.
Black: Didn't know that... about yourself and the Deputy.
Racheal: I thought the needle would make me happy.... and I was.... until i sobered up. Dealt with another sort of addiction but the Deputy helped me over come that too.
Black: Rather be addicted too killing Peggies then doing drugs.
Racheal: There are better ways too live life.
Black: It is the only thing i'm good at.
Racheal: Maybe when this is over you'll find peace. Now I've helped you, now you help me.
Black: Sure. The Deputy. I have no idea where she is.
Racheal: I have a hunch....
Black: What?
Racheal: St. Francis Veterans Center. Take me there.
Black: I'm crazy about killing Pegies but i'm not entering there.
Racheal: I'll enter it. You just escort me there.
Black: Your fucking nuts girl!!!
Racheal: Help me or what?
Jess relents and help Racheal too the Veterans Center. Jess explains the role it plays in Jacobs plans. It is where he uses "Classical Conditioning" too make his captives "Strong" too cull the weak. If they don't pass their 3 trails they are killed for being "weak." it takes about a 1 and a half days too reach the Veterans Center. When there Racheal and Jess go there separate ways.
Black: Your are fucking crazy... but you got balls for doing this. They capture you they will fuck you up.
Racheal: I am more then aware.
Black: Good luck.....
Racheal: You too Jess.
Jess takes off for parts unknown too Racheal. Racheal knows that trucks leave the Center on a set schedule however she doesn't know the times. She hangs out in a small forest area near the Center for a few days studying the times. She gets a good idea and at night makes her move. She goes in light with only her 1911 pistol, MS16, throwing knifes and shoe less (As Faith Seed would do). She times it perfect just as a truck leaves and a gate shuts behind. Racheal hides near some barriers near the entrance waiting for an opening too run too the cages. She makes it easily and begins looking for the Deputy. It doesn't take her long to find the Deputy.
Racheal: My god....
The Deputy is extremely dirty with dried blood all over her clothing mixed with dirt. She also looks like she has lost some weight as well. She is sleeping.
Racheal: Jacob is starving her too make it easier too condition her.
Racheal reaches her hand into the cage and holds the Deputys hand. Sadness and rage fill her heart. Before she can attempt too free the Deputy she hears foot steps approaching and quickly hides behind some crates. A male figures approaches the Deputys cage trying too wake her up quietly. Racheal quietly near the person with her MS16 drawn.
Deputy Pratt: Rook!!! Rook!!! Wake up!!!
*Racheal shoves her MS16 barrel into Pratts neck making him stop instantly*
Racheal: Who are you?
Deputy Pratt: I'm with the Deputy. I'm trying too get her out.
Racheal: Who.... are you?
Deputy Pratt: I'm with the Hope Country Sheriffs office. I'm Staci Pratt.
Racheal doesn't remember seeing him when The Deputy, Burke and Whitehorse entered the church.
Racheal: (Must have been outside) Where is Jacob?
Deputy Pratt: He is inside. Stop wasting time the Deputy needs too leave here.
Racheal: No kidding.
*The Deputy wakes up*
Deputy: Racheal???
Racheal: Deputy!
Deputy Pratt: Rook who is this?
The Deputy motions Racheal too show him her face and she does. Pratt is shocked too see who is standing in front of him.
Deputy Pratt: You are!!!
*Racheal again shove her MS16 against his neck*
Racheal: Not.... another.... word..... Deputy.
Deputy: Long story Pratt. But don't worry..... she isn't what she used too be anymore.
Deputy Pratt: Yeah right Rook. I'm not fucking trusting her!!!
Racheal: You don't have a choice right now...
Deputy: She is right.....
Deputy Pratt: This is bullshit!!! I got the Bliss Queen holding me at gunpoint and Jacob fucking my mind.
Racheal: I can correct that if you don't shut up!!!
*The Deputy motions for Pratt too can it*
Deputy: Racheal... thank you for coming too get me. But Pratt has it covered.
Racheal: Jacob is fucking the both of you up...
Deputy: What?
Racheal and Pratt look at each other with a knowing look.
Racheal: i'm going too free the both of you from Jacob... but don't know how.
Deputy Pratt: I don't know either.
Deputy: What are you guys talking about?
Deputy Pratt: later Rook I'm getting you out.
*Pratt frees the Deputy*
Racheal: I will help free from you guys. I just have too find out how.
Deputy: Don't worry it Racheal.
Racheal: You don't know what he is doing too you yet... but you will. And it will scare you.
*Racheal pulls Pratt aside*
Racheal: You say one fucking word too Jacob about who I am and what you saw.... I could always use another Angel Deputy Pratt.
Deputy Pratt: Right...
Racheal rushes behind the Veterans Center, hops the fence and collects her gear. Racheal heads northwest after that. Racheal runs across one of the Jacobs wolf beacons and blows it up. Her radio crackles too life...
"Too who ever did that.... thank you. There are more out there. If you can please destroy the rest of them"
Racheal knows who that is. Then another radio message is heard....
"It seems another person is out there playing solider. But they really aren't a solider at all. My Judges will find who ever you are and you be seeing me soon."
Racheal too knows who is it as well. Eli and Jacob have taken interest in her little deed. She then heads southwest until reaches a lake and then heads west. Racheal comes across some cabins and decides too make a home for the night. As she clears one out a voice comes over the radio.
"You in the cabin..."
Racheal readies her weapons and looks out the door and windows but sees no one.
"Are you the one who blew up that wolf beacons?"
Racheal doesn't want too answer the radio but Eli makes her an offer...
"If you are allied with the Deputy or a lone wolf then why don't we work too together? If Jacob Seed is your enemy then we share something in common. Why don't you common too our hideout? Lets talk?"
Racheal: You play a dangerous game Eli. I'll show up under some guarantees.
"Name them."
Racheal: My identity stays a secret... only the Deputy knows how I really am and she will not say either. Food, a shower, new clothes, ammo and a place too sleep. In turn i'll give you information about Jacobs operation.
"Deal."
Racheal travels too The Wolfs Den. While it takes her sometime she does make it though. Eli watched her journey and is waiting for her near the helipad.
Eli: Glad you made it safe.
Racheal: Like I said you play a dangerous game with someone you don't know....
Eli: Wouldn't say that...…
Racheal: Huh?
Ei: The Deputy put in a good word for you. Saying you blew up that Joseph Seed statue and destroyed Bliss production in the Henbane region and help the Deputy beat Faith Seed.
Racheal: (He is so fucking with me right now)
Eli: I am serious. After Lumber Mill was freed she contacted us. though we haven't heard from her for sometime...
Racheal: I know where she is...
Eli: Where?
Racheal: St. Francis Veterans Center.
*Eli turns a ghost white*
Racheal: I saw her myself. She is fine but captured. Jacob is doing what he does. Though there is one of her fellow Deputies with her trying too bust her out.
Eli: Well there isn't really anything we can do. You got some skill sneaking into that place and leaving. You give me that information and i'll give you what you want.
Racheal lays down some 411 on Eli about Jacob Seeds operation, including somethings Eli didn't know about. Eli is more then happy with the information Racheal gives him and lets her into the Wolfs Den. Here she cleans herself up, gets new clothes, cleans her weapons (gets rid of her M133 shotgun but keeps her 1911, MS16 and Compound Bow) and gets plenty of sleep. Before leaving she eats. Eli asks her too stay but she says she works better alone but "will keep Jacob Seed busy." She heads northwest toward the Pin-KO Rader Station too liberate it too give Eli some breathing room...
"Is...… is anyone out there?"
Racheal: Deputy!?
Deputy: Racheal.... where are you?
Racheal knows something it up with the Deputy. Her voice tells the tale.
Deputy: Please...… I need help.
Racheal: I'm on my way.
Deputy: You... you don't even know where I am.
Racheal doesn't respond and heads for an old resort/hotel. She is using the Deputys radio calls too help her located her. However Racheal sees visual evidence as she approaches the resort. By this time the Deputy has stopped calling Racheal over the radio, though before not completely losing control openly weeping over the radio. Outside the resort are dead bodies, necks broken with a few shot. They aren't Peggies though.
Racheal: These are Resistance Members.
Racheal clears the outside of the building then heads inside. Once inside what she sees drops her too her knees. It is not the fact of dead bodies.... but it is the level of violence. Blood stains the walls and floor and bodies are dismembered. It is a sea of red. It is also the smell.... the smell of death. A sickly sweet smell that makes Racheal gag. It also reminds her of her other self. Racheal snaps out of it when she hears weeping coming from up stairs. The carnage doesn't stop as Racheal clears room by room on every floor. When she enters the final room she sees the Deputy, surrounded by dead bodies. A river a tears flow down her cheeks.
Deputy: I don't remember what happened!!! I just remember music then everything went black!!! Then I woke up here!!!
Racheal sits down next too the Deputy and hugs her.
Deputy: Please help me...
As of now there is nothing Racheal too can do for the Deputy. She wishes she could though because of what the Deputy did for her.
Racheal: (I have too free the Deputy. But only Jacob Seed knows how too.) I will try... as god as my witness I will try.
After a while the pair leave the resort too the lake nearby, the Deputy washes up. It then dawns on Racheal that if she is around when the Deputy is "culling the weak" She will not have too be around her when it does happen, otherwise Racheal will not survive.
Racheal: Dep.... I have too leave you.
Deputy: Why!?
Racheal: If i'm around when you go crazy..... you know what will happen.
*The Deputy depressingly drops her head*
Racheal: You will not be able too stop yourself. I don't even know if The Bliss can stop what Jacob has done too you. I'd have too make you an Angel too stop it.
Deputy: Promise me Racheal..... if I turn into what Jacob wants.... you WILL make me an angel.
Racheal: I can't promise that.
Deputy: Why the hell not!?
Racheal: There is not cure for The Bliss for those in it too long. Remember Burke? I had my hooks in him good and he didn't want too leave. Who says the same will not happen too you?
Deputy: I'd rather be in your care then Jacobs....
Racheal: Lesser of the two evils is still picking evil Dep. I'm reserving the Bliss for the Brothers.
Deputy: Stop fucking with me Racheal!!!
The Deputy grabs Racheal by the collar. Racheal can tell she is scared out of her mind but her fear is blinding her from certain facts.
Racheal: I know how Jacob operates. When he is done with something he throws it away. He'll throw you away you too when he is finished with you. But until then YOU have too keep fighting against him. Once enough damage is done too his operation here then he'll face you. He'll take pride in the fact he made you and he'll try too un-make you. He is making you stronger.
*The Deputy releases Racheal, whom picks up her gear and walks away*
Racheal: I'm going too liberate that radar installation too help out Eli. You'd best help him as well.
Racheal makes the trek too the radar site and liberates it, Eli thanking her for doing so.
