Ben was a depressed person and he requested to be dropped, Lewis did his orders, even by a low-class soldier... About a day later, one soldier goes missing, Lewis sees their cap laying on the grass of a mansion which was now their base. The Lt. Colonel climbed over the fence, seeing a US AR radio belonging to the mission soldier, Mason picks up the radio, then is suddenly stabbed with a combat knife, in the vein, by a Russian in a hidden spot... Mason then kills the attacker, the wound is causing a infection in his arm...

Final Hours

The remaining squad now know of the infection in his arm, they go to the Morgue nearby to look for the soldier... Lewis sees an elevator shaft and pulls it open, he then feels disoriented and weak as he stumbled backwards, he then passes out. About 30 minutes later, Mason amputates off his left arm, (from the person who has amputated it eyes) Later, he loses the rest of his squad, he finds out the location by the radio he found earlier... He goes to a hotel, he then confronts the stranger and has a conversation, the kidnapped soldier sneaks out and smashes the stranger's head with an wine bottle. Mason finishes the Stranger off by choking him to death. Mason and the soldier escape the hotel but there are hundreds of Russians outside, they find Russian uniforms and put them on... All goes well until Lewis passes out, the soldier drags him into a jewellery store in the town. Lewis then explains the infection in his arm, then realised it was too late. The soldier helps Mason up but he collapses in the outside the exit-room, the soldier then kills the guard and grabs a gun, Mason then tells the soldier to kill him or leave him, (Player-Determined) that was the end of Lewis Mason, good friend, great soldier and leader, one of the greatest soldiers of the US Army Rangers and US Army...
