Nicky’s team is in trucks heading towards where Zack had pointed out Kharne’s vault on a map!

Sam Weston sits in the back of the truck, tightening the laces on his boots. He looks around at everyone else in the truck.

“Everyone cowboyed up?”

Nicky's leaning back on her seat, arms crossed. It's hard to tell where she's staring because of the aviators.

"You know me."

She's either super ready or super going to make this up as she goes.

"I'm ready."

Kalhan's voice comes in over the radio from the other truck.

They pull up to the side of the road, where there's a large grassy field on one side, and a sparse looking forested area on the other.

"This is as close as the trucks will take us."

The driver states as he parks.

“Ha, that I do.” Sam opens up the door and hops out, looking to get a baring of his surroundings.

“And we know the vault is...” He starts pointing in random directions, waiting for someone to stop him when he’s right.

Nicky follows him out the truck, watching him point around and grabbing his wrist, adjusting the direction.

"There."

GM WHAT WE LOOKING AT WOODS OR FIELD.

It's the woods!

Kalhan gets out as well, looking around.

“Alright, boss.” He slaps his thighs.

“Scout or tank today?”

"Both."

She looks into the woods, taking a few careful steps towards them.

"This is all unfamiliar. Try to remain hidden...but who knows the kind of security they've set up around here. Watch your steps."

A vault is a vault. She's not sure how far their security would stretch but best be cautious.

The woods seem normal, from their perspectives from the road.

As they start to walk closer, there's the soft sound of an electronic hum coming from further in where the trees are a bit thicker.

“You hear that?” Sam stops and looks around for the source.

“There’s some sort of frequency going off. Radar maybe?”

Nicky squints her eyes, but she's pretty sure she won't see what it is from here.

"Maybe. Either of you feel like you could track it? Or should we just go in and follow the sound?"

There’s no obvious source to be seen.

“Just sounds like power, to me.”

Kalhan shrugs.

“But you’re the boss.”

“Worth a shot.” Sam looks to follow the noise and see if it grows louder as he approaches.

"No harm in confirming."

Probably.

She follows behind Sam, letting him take the lead in this!

Kalhan takes up the sweet, sweet rear.

The three find that the noise does, in fact, grow louder the deeper they go into the forest. Finally, it sounds as if the ground itself is vibrating slightly from the humming power, enough to signal that whatever it is they're looking for, they're likely right above it.

“I think we’re standing on it.” Sam crouches, putting a hand on the ground.

Nicky takes a few steps back, glancing around for anything that could seem like a trigger to get to whatever that is.

"Wonder if it's buried or if there's another way to get to it."

Whatever it is. Maybe a generator?

Sam feels that the ground is definitely vibrating slightly.

There's no real obvious sign of anything. There's plenty of trees around, though, including a particularly large tree to their right.

“Well I’m always down for plan B.” He looks at the ground before noticing the large tree. Sam walks towards it, looking to see if it looks natural or if it’s a secret entrance.

Upon closer inspection, it doesn't look natural!

Sam wants to tear the tree open whether he finds an opening or not

Sam tears it open, and there's stairs leading down to a solid metallic looking door!

It looks like an actual vault door.
