Core Narrative 2

The Ultimatum

As the group escapes from Alcatraz, Noah separated himself from the others and made the mistake of stealing a police boat. He gets caught an hour later by the watchguards and is sent to straight to the government. As he waits in a special prison cell, he recalls what the other escapees told him about their own plans after they left. One of them wanted to completely get away from government control and society itself by creating his own safe haven for others who are infected. Two of them believed they could create a rebellion against the government in secret. Three government officials in uniform interrupt his thought as they enter his cell. One man introduces himself as General Matthews and starts asking questions on where the other escapees could have run off to and what they were planning on doing. Noah decides not to answer for the sake of his allies, but instead demands to know where he is. One of the other guards besides Matthews states that he’s in a place where no one can find him. Once again Matthews continues with his beret of questions. Noah doesn’t say anything. In response, Matthews offers him a deal: shelter, food, medical treatment and a position in the government if he reveals their plans. Unfortunately, this offer wins Noah over, and he accepts the deal with Matthews.
