Just what I'd expect from the man with the same code as the boss. It's been a long time since I've had such a good fight but I'm just getting warmed up. (Ocelot leaps out from behind the pillar ready to shoot but a cloaked figure jumps down from the ceiling and attacks him with a sword. Ocelot's arm is cut off in the forearm.)
NULL
What! My hand!!! (The figure quickly slices down all of the wires connected to the C4 and the ropes binding Baker to the support pillar. he falls to the ground as the C4 explodes around him. Ocelot is thrown against the wall by the explosions.)
NULL
Aaaaaaahhh!!
NULL
Uuuunnhh! Ooooof! Stealth Camouflage, can't you even die right!? You were lucky, we'll meet again! (Ocelot runs out of the chamber as the figure reveals himself. He is decked out as a cyborg ninja. Snake levels his gun at him.)
NULL
Who are you!?
NULL
I'm like you... I have no name.
NULL
Ohhh... ohhhh! That... that exoskeleton...! (The ninja ignores Baker and turns around to face Snake. After a short time of staring each other down the ninja begins to convulse.)
NULL
Ggggyyyaaaaaaahhh!!! Ggggyyyyaaaaaaaahhh!!! Gggggyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!! (The ninja stops convulsing and hurries out of the room, jumping about. Snake holsters his weapon.)
NULL
Who the hell!? (Snake helps Baker up to his feet.)
NULL
Can you talk?
NULL
Who are you?
NULL
I'm not one of them. The DARPA Chief told me he gave them his detonation code. What about yours?
NULL
Oh, I get it. Jim sent you... You... you're from the Pentagon.
NULL
Answer my question! What about your code!? There's no time!
NULL
I... talked.
NULL
What! Now the terrorists have both codes and can launch anytime!
NULL
It's not like I didn't fight. I managed to resist Psycho Mantis's mind probe.
NULL
He couldn't read you? How'd you do it?
NULL
Surgical implants in my brain.
NULL
Surgical implants?
NULL
Kind of like a psychic insulation. Everybody who knows these top-secret codes has it.
NULL
Even the DARPA Chief?
NULL
Of course.
NULL
But the DARPA Chief said Mantis got his code by reading his mind.
NULL
Are you sure you heard him right?
NULL
Yeah, I'm sure. In that case, how did they get your code?
NULL
I never had any training on how to resist torture... (Baker coughs violently, he is obviously in very bad shape.)
NULL
It looks like he had some fun with you all right.
NULL
He's not human. I tell you, he loved every second of it.
NULL
What happened to your arm?
NULL
He broke it.
NULL
Looks like you're more than even now. His was sliced off.
NULL
Ha. You're a funny man. ...So... the DARPA Chief... is he okay?
NULL
Dead.
NULL
What!? It can't be! You know that's not what you promised, Jim! Now you want to shut me up! (Baker begins to whack Snake's leg with his cane. Snake quickly calms him down.)
NULL
Calm down! What's wrong with you? I just told you I was here to save you! I didn't kill the DARPA Chief. He had a heart attack or something.
NULL
A heart attack? Oh, don't be a fool.
NULL
Anyway, the terrorists have both codes now.
NULL
Those boys are totally insane. They wouldn't hesitate to launch.
NULL
I agree. But what do they really want?
NULL
Who knows. Maybe they're like us in the arms industry... always looking forward to the next good war.
NULL
Well I'm not going to let these maniacs start a war toady. Do you still have the card keys.
NULL
Card keys?
NULL
To override tge detonation codes! I heard you had them...
NULL
No, not anymore.
NULL
What!? Who does then!? Not the terrorists!?
NULL
No, that woman.
NULL
Woman!? Who!?
NULL
A soldier that was thrown in prison along with me.
NULL
A female soldier? It must be...
NULL
She said that she had just joined up as a new recruit. She said they threw her in prison because she refused to take part in the rebellion.
NULL
A new recruit? Could that be the Colonel's niece!?
NULL
I gave her the key. Looks like she managed to break out of here though. I hope she's okay.
NULL
I'm sure she is. She's green... but as tough as they come. But how did you know she escaped?
NULL
I was in contact with her by Codec. Until I was tied up here that is.
NULL
Codec?
NULL
Yes. She stole it from the guard. If she still has it, you should be able to contact her.
NULL
I'm sure she still has it. What frequency was she at?
NULL
Oh yeah. Let me tell you. It's... (Baker is struggling to remember.)
NULL
Huh?
NULL
...Oh... sorry... I forgot...
NULL
Damn!
NULL
Oh that's right! It should be on the back of the CD case. Try to contact her.
NULL
I'll contact her right away. But tell me... If this doesn't work, is there some other way to prevent the missile launch?
NULL
Hmmm. You need to find Hal Emmerich, one of my employees.
NULL
Who's that?
NULL
The team leader of the Metal Gear Rex project. A genius at engineering, but a little bit of an oddball. If there is anyone who can figure out how to stop Metal Gear from launching, it's him.
NULL
What if he can't come up with anything?
NULL
You'll have to destroy it. Emmerich knows how to destroy Metal Gear.
NULL
Where is this Emmerich?
NULL
Well... he's probably being held somewhere in the Nuclear Warhead Storage Building. It's north from here. That's where he worked.
NULL
I understand, but... why Metal Gear? The Nuclear Age ended with the turn of the millenium.
NULL
You're wrong. The threat of nuclear war isn't gone... in fact it's greater than it's ever been. (Scenes of missile launches, storage buildings, and missile silos are shown.)
NULL
The amount of spent nuclear fuel and plutonium is increasing even today. Listen, have you ever seen a warehouse full of nuclear material?
NULL
...No.
NULL
Drums and drums of nuclear waste stacked this high. As far as you can see because there's still no real way to dispose of the stuff.
NULL
So they just close the lid and pretend like it'll go away?
NULL
Essentially, yes. And they're not even doing a good job of storing it. Many of the drums are corroded... with nuclear waste seeping out of them.
NULL
Unbelievable.
NULL
Not only that, several pounds of MUF are reported every year.
NULL
MUF?
NULL
It stands for "material unnacounted for". It proves that there is a large and well organized black market in nuclear materials. Furthermore, since the end of the Cold War, Russian nuclear engineers, in particular, are out of work with nowhere to turn. (We go back to the chamber where Snake and Baker are conversing.)
NULL
In other words, there is plenty of nuclear material and scientists for making a bomb. We live in an age when any small country can have a nuclear weapons program.
NULL
What about the other superpowers?
NULL
Russia and China still maintain a signifigant nuclear presence. Complete nuclear disarmament is an impossibility. To maintain our own policy of deterrance, we need a weapon of overwhelming power.
NULL
You mean Metal Gear.
NULL
You know our industry suffered quite a blow as a result of the cut-backs in military budgets, due to this so called "peace".
NULL
I remember hearing a lot about mergers and take-overs among the big weapons makers.
NULL
Yes. And after my company lost their bid to produce the Air Force's next fighter jet, the Metal Gear project was out last ace in the hole. That's why we pushed to have Metal Gear developed as a black project.
NULL
Black project?
NULL
Secret projects paid for by the Pentagon's black budget. You can avoid a lot of red tape a get a great lead-time on your weapons production. And no one can bother you. Not even those bleeding heart liberals on the military oversight committee.
NULL
Bribes.
NULL
I prefer to think of it as good buisness. Anyway, Metal Gear was going to be formally adopted after the results of this exercise were analyzed.
NULL
I don't give a crap about you and your company.
NULL
Yes, that's about what I'd expect from a grunt like you... Here, this is what you came for, right? (Baker fishes a disc out of his pocket and hands it to Snake.)
NULL
What's that?
NULL
An optical disk. It's all here. The main hard drive was destroyed by gunfire. This is the only remaining copy of the data.
NULL
What kind of data?
NULL
All the data collected from this exercise. Don't play dumb. I know you were sent to get this. I hid it from that sadistic maniac while he was torturing me. They don't know that this disk exists. Make sure that you report this to Jim... to your boss. I'll give you my card too. It'll open up all level two security doors.
NULL
Can you walk?
NULL
...No ...You go on without me. They got my password... they don't want anything else from me.
NULL
I have one more question. Who or what was that ninja thing? It looked like you knew something.
NULL
That ninja? That was FOX-HOUND's dark little secret.
NULL
Dark little secret?
NULL
An experimantal... genome... soldier... (Baker coughs once more.)
NULL
You know him?
NULL
You should ask Dr. Naomi Hunter from FOX-HOUND. She knows better than I.
NULL
Naomi?
NULL
You've got to stop them. If it goes public, my company and I are... finished.
NULL
What? Doesn't Metal Gear use currently existing technology?
NULL
Metal Gear itself does, but... (Baker bends over in pain.)
NULL
Huh!?
NULL
What... what did you do to me!? Uh... oooh...no! ...Ooh. Oh no, it can't be! ...those Pentagon bastards! ...So they...they actually went ahead and did it!
NULL
What are you talking about!?
NULL
They... they're just... using you for... uuuhhh... (Baker slumps over and Snake stands in front of him stunned and confused.)
NULL
What the hell? (After thinking for a moment he calls Campbell on the Codec.)
NULL
Colonel! Are you listening? Now he's dead too!
上校！你聽到了沒？現在他也掛了！
...I have no idea!
⋯⋯那我也沒辦法啊！
Don't lie to me!
別敷衍我！
It looked like another heart attack but...
這看起來像是心臟病發作，但⋯⋯
Some kind of poison!?
是中毒！？
Well, there are a lot of drugs that can cause a heart attack in large doses. For example. potassium chloride or dioxides... But... we won't be able to tell without doing an autopsy.
好了，在現場發現了好多藥，大劑量的用藥導致了心臟病發。比如，鉀氧化物或二氧化碳⋯⋯ 但⋯⋯ 在驗屍前這些我們都無從得知。
Damn!
該死！
Snake, I want you and Meryl to work together!
Snake，我希望你和Meryl一起協作。
Can I trust her?
她可靠嗎？
...More than you can trust me.
比我可靠。
......
⋯⋯
Get in contact with her.
跟她聯繫。
Snake, there is a lot of electrical interferance coming from there. It should be okay if you do burst transmission like us but normal transmission is probably impossible. Try moving away from that area.
Snake，你那裏有好多電子干擾。現在你沒辦法像平常一樣給我們發電波，請離開這塊地方。
Snake, get a hold of yourself.
Snake，控制下你的情緒。
Naomi, what the hell was that ninja thing?
Naomi，那個忍者是個什麼鬼情況？
.....
⋯⋯
A member of FOX-HOUND?
FOX-HOUND的成員？
No...
不⋯⋯
Are you sure?
你確定？
Yes, we have no one like that in our unit.
是的，FOX-HOUND裏沒有他。
Is that right?
真的？
Snake, I'm counting on you. (The transmission ends and Snake is left to find Meryl's Codec frequency. He does find it on the back of the CD case and contacts her.)
Snake，就靠你了。（這次通話結束後，Snake找到了Meryl的電波頻率.）
Who are you?
你是誰？
I was really impressed with the way you busted yourself out of there.
我真的很佩服你靠自己突破了那裏。
The one from the prison?
你是說在監獄哪裡嗎？
You're the Colonel's niece, Meryl, right?
你是上校的姪女，Meryl，對嗎？
....No... it's not him... Just exactly who are you?
⋯⋯不，不是，你到底是誰？
I'm the fool that your uncle sent all alone into the middle of this whole mess.
我是你叔叔叫來保護這個獨自闖入禁區搞得一團亂的笨蛋。
You came by yourself? You think you're some kind of one-man army?
你自己一個人來的？ 你以為你是單人部隊（孤軍奮戰）？
You're not even armed.
你連裝備都沒有。
I appreciate your help from before. But...
前面的事情我要好好感謝你，但⋯⋯
I don't need lectures. You're just like your uncle, you know.
我不需要演講（TODO），你看起來就像你叔叔，你知道嗎。
How do you know my uncle?
你怎麼知道我叔叔？
We go way back.
我們回去的路上。
What's your name?
你叫什麼名字？
My name's not important.
我的名字不重要。
Aha! Could you be Snake? Are you Solid Snake?
啊哈，搞不好你是Snake，Solide Snake？
That's what some people called me.
有些人這會這樣叫我。
The legendary Solid Snake...! You!? Sorry about before. I wasn't sure if you were one of the good guys.
傳說中的傭兵 Solid Snake⋯⋯！ 你！？ 之前的事情真是不好意思，我當時不知道你是個好人。
But I knew you were.
但是我知道你是。
How?
你怎麼知道？
It's your eyes.
透過你的眼睛。
My eyes?
我的眼睛？
They're not soldiers eyes.
這不是戰士該有的眼睛。
They're rookie's eyes, right?
看起來像菜鳥的眼睛，對不對？
No, they're beautiful compassionate eyes.
不，是雙漂亮且富有同情心的眼睛。
Just what I'd expect from the legendary Solid Snake. You trying to sweep me off my feet?
我沒料到傳奇的Solid Snake會說出這樣的話，那你有沒掃視我的雙腳？
Don't worry. You'll land back on them once you meet me. The reality is no match for the legend, I'm afraid.
別擔心，妳返回的時候，我還以為是最後一次見妳了，現實不是傳說，我很擔心你。
I don't believe that.
我真不敢相信。
Why did you look surprised when you saw my face?
為什麼你在看到我的時候一臉詫異？
Because you look just like him.
因為你看起來像他。
...You mean the terrorists leader, Liquid Snake?
你想說恐怖份子首領，Liquid Snake？
Yeah, you know him? You're not brothers are you!?
對啊，你知道他？你不是他兄弟嗎？
I have no family.
我沒有家人。
So, what's the deal then?
那是怎麼回事？
Who knows. Why don't you ask him?
誰知道，你為什麼不問他？
But first I want some information. You were involved in this excercise from the beginning. What exactly happened here?
首先，我要問你點東西。妳是從什麼時候捲入這場練習的。這裏到底發生了什麼事情？
I'm sorry. I was captured along with President Baker right after the terrorist attack.
抱歉，恐怖襲擊後，我和總統就被抓到這裏來了。
That's okay. But what is this place? I don't think it is just a nuclear wepaons disposal facility...
沒關係，但這是個什麼地方？我不覺得這只是個核武器處理平台⋯⋯
Boy oh boy... it's just like them! Nobody told you anything, did they? Okay... you see, this place isn't really for disposing nuclear weapons. This base is owned and operated by a dummy corporation of ArmsTech.
好傢伙⋯⋯ 就是這樣，沒人告訴你任何事情，對嗎？ 好吧⋯⋯ 你看，這個地方不是真的核武器處理平台。這基地由一個叫ArmsTech的冒牌公司擁有並操作。
This is a civilian base?
這是一個民用基地。
Right. For the development of Metal Gear.
對，用來開發Metal Gear。
Colonel!
上校！
FOX-HOUND and the Next-Generation Special Forces were called here for the test launching of a dummy nuclear warhead.
FOX-HOUND 和 Next-Generation 特種部隊被召集到這裏做假的假的核彈頭發射試驗。
Why FOX-HOUND?
FOX-HOUND是什麼？
Because they're a Special Ops group used to handling top secret missions. They figured they could keep it all hush-hush.
是一隻用來處理絕密任務的特種部隊小組。他們想通過這隻部隊保護所有秘密。
But we must have fired nuclear warheads before. Why just this time?
但是我們必須在核彈頭發射前（TODO），為什麼是這個時間？
I heard it was because this was to be a final test before the formal adoption of the Metal Gear program... that's what I heard anyway.
我聽說這是Metal Gear程序的最終測試⋯⋯ 不管怎樣，這是我聽來的。
Hmmm... sounds kind of fishy... So what do you think the terrorists want?
嗯⋯⋯ 聽起來有點意思⋯⋯ 那你覺得恐怖份子想得到什麼？
Sorry, I'm not sure. I was captured with President Baker right after the revolt started.
抱歉，我不曉得，我和終統Baker被抓的時候背叛就已經開始（TODO）。
Oh yeah, that's when he gave you the detonation override keys, right?
有道理，就在那個時候他給了你引爆密鑰？
That's right.
對。
Amazing you were able to keep 'em hidden from the guards.
厲害！然後你還瞞過了那些警衛啊。
Well... women have more hiding places than men. Anyway, you met up with Baker, huh? How's he holding up?
對⋯⋯ 女人較之於男人總有意想不到的藏身之處。 無論如何， 你遇到Baker了，是吧？他怎麼樣了？
He's dead...
他已經死了。
What!?
什麼！？
Heart attack. Same as the DARPA Chief.
心臟病發，就和國防部部長一樣。
The Chief died from a heart attck too?
國防部部長也死於心臟病發？
Yeah, was either of them sick or anything?
對，他是得病了還是怎樣？
No, not that I heard of.
不，我沒聽說。
Well, I don't believe in coincidences. Something funny's going on.
那就對了，我不相信這是巧合。看來事情慢慢變得有趣起來。
Hmmm. Sounds like it. But I have no idea what.
嗯。 聽起來像那麼回事，但是我不知道要怎樣。
Me neither... yet. Do you know the person who designed Metal Gear?
我也不知道⋯⋯ 對了，你知道Metal Gear的設計師嗎？
You mean Dr. emmerich?
你是說emmerich博士？
Yes. Is he still alive?
對，他現在還活著嗎？
Probably. he should be in the second floor basemant of the Nuclear Warhead Storage Building to the north.
或許，他就在地下室二層北面的核彈頭儲藏室。
Second floor basement?
地下室二層？
Yeah, that's where his lab is. I think they're forcing him to work on the nuclear launching program.
對，那是他的實驗室。我想他們在強迫他開發核程序語言。
So they'll need him alive until that's done anyway.
嗯，意思就是說，在事情完成之前，他們都要他活著。
Then we'd better do something before he finishes.
那麼我們最好在他完事前把事情搞定。
You're right. In case we can't override the detonation code in time, I need to ask him how to destroy Metal Gear.
你說的對。萬一我們我們無法重置引爆代碼，那我就得穩他摧毀Metal Gear的辦法了。
You plan to take that thing on by yourself, Snake?
你計畫自己來弄這件事，Snake？
It won't be the first time...
這又不是第一次了⋯⋯
.........
⋯⋯
What's the best way to get to the building where the Doctor is being held?
去博士的大樓怎麼走比較好？
There's a cargo door on the first floor of this building that leads to the north.
這棟大樓一層有個艙門，直通北面的屋頂。
What's the security level of the door there?
那個門的安全等級是多少？
Five, but it's okay... I've got a level five card.
五，放心吧，我這有五級的卡。
Well, I've got to go save the Doctor. You should go...
好，我去救博士，妳去哪裡⋯⋯
I'm going with you!
我跟著你。
No way! You're still too green. I want you to hide somewhere.
沒門！你還太嫩，我要你待在這裏。
I'm not green.
我才不嫩。
Oh yes you are.
喔，只是你這樣認為。
..........
⋯⋯
You pause for just one second in front of your enemy and it's all over! Good luck doesn't last forever!
你在敵人面前停一秒鐘，一切都結束了！好運又不是一直都在。
I don't know what happened. I just couldn't pull the trigger right away. I never had any problems in training... But when I thought about my bullets tearing through those soldiers' bodies, I hesitated.
我不知道怎麼了，就是不忍扣下扳機，以前在訓練的時候明明一切都很順利的，但想到子彈將穿過士兵的身體的時候，我遲疑了。
Shooting at targets and shooting at living, breathing people are different.
靶子和活人本來就是不同的。
Ever since I was a little girl, I always dreamed of being a soldier. Every day of my life, I've trained my mind and my body for the one day when I could finally see some real action, and now
我從小時候起，就夢想成為一個士兵。我每一天每一天，都在地磨練我的意志和身體，就為了最終能適應真正的戰鬥，然而⋯⋯
So what now? You wanna quit?
然而什麼？你放棄了？
I can't quit. I can't alow myself to quit now.
沒有，我已無法放棄。
Listen, Meryl. Everybody feels sick the first time they kill someone. Unfortunately, killing is one of those things that gets easier the more you do it. In a war, all of mankind's worst emotions, worst traits come out. It's easy to forget what a sin is in the middle of a battlefield.
聽著，Meryl，只要是人，第一次殺人總會有遲疑。並不只有你才這樣，殺人是件非常容易的事，在戰爭中，人們所有的壞情緒、壞特點都表現出來，而且很容易就把戰場上的罪行給忘記了。
But this isn't a war. It's a terrorist action.
但是這不是戰爭，這只是反恐行動。
You're just a little jumpy from the combat high. The adrenaline in your blood is starting to whin out. Just take it easy.
你只是在實戰中過於緊張了。 你的血液中的腎上腺素開始升高，還是放鬆點吧。
But I learned all about combat high at the academy...
但是我在實戰演習中所學到的東西⋯⋯
We'll talk about it later. For now, just think about keeping yourself alive.
這些我們以後再談吧。現在，你只要保住你的性命。
If I get out of here alive, I'll think about that other stuff.
如果我活著離開這裏，我會考慮點別的。
Okay, let me try to say this another way... Stay the hell out of my way.
好，
You're a real bastard, just like my uncle said.
NULL
Ha ha, I told you. The real me is no match for the legend.
NULL
It looks like you were right. Okay Snake, I'll be a good girl.
NULL
We'll link up after I grab the Doctor. Then we'll take care of the detonation code override.
NULL
Got ya. But listen, I know this area better than you. Call me if you have any questions.
NULL
Be careful, okay?
NULL
After I open up the cargo door, I'll contact you. (Snake signs off and waits for Meryl to open the door. When she does she calls him on the codec.)
NULL
Snake, I unlocked the cargo door for you.
NULL
Thanks. Where are you?
NULL
Where I can see ya.
NULL
Don't move around too much.
NULL
Don't worry, I'm disguised in this enemy uniform.
NULL
You won't be for long with the way you walk.
NULL
What does that mean?
NULL
Oh... nothing.
NULL
Listen Snake, the cargo door is like an airlock. It's equipped with infrared sensors. Be careful. If an intruder is sensed, gas is released.
NULL
Gas...
NULL
Okay, so we'll meet at the Nuclear Warhead Storage Building.
NULL
Wait! You said you'd stay put and be a good girl!
NULL
I changed my mind.
NULL
Don't get careless. That is when things always turn sour.
NULL
Sorry, but this is the only way I can figure out whether or not I'm cut out to be a soldier... I gotta get my hands dirty.
NULL
These guys are proffesionals. You're gonna get yourself killed.
NULL
See ya there! (The cargo door opens and Snake passes the infrared sensors easily by using his cigarettes to see the beams. Once on the other side of the door he is contacted by an unknown person on the Codec.)
NULL
Snake, be careful! There are Claymore mines around there. Use a mine detector.
NULL
Who are you?
NULL
Just call me "Deepthroat".
NULL
Deepthroat? The informant from the Watergate scandal?
NULL
Never mind about that.
NULL
You're not using burst transmission. Are you nearby?
NULL
Listen. There's a tank in front of your position waiting to ambush you.
NULL
Who are you anyway?
NULL
One of your fans. (Deepthroat signs off and now Snake proceeds through the canyon ahead of him using the mine detector he picked up. When he is about halfway through a tank rolls out of a door at the other end and rolls towards him. A man speaks from within the tank.)
NULL
This is Raven's territory... (The man who is speaking pops out the hatch of the tank and grabs the turret mounted machine-gun on top.)
NULL
Snakes don't belomg in Alaska, I will not let you pass. Send him a message! (The tank fires a shell at Snake. He does a quick backflip and dodges it by moving backwards through the air. He lands hard in the snow.)
NULL
Ha ha ha ha ha... That's right, you belong on the ground. You should crawl on the ground like the Snake you are. (Raven jumps back into the tank.)
NULL
Come. Let's fight! (Snake battles the tank and defeats it. The tank blows up and a Genome Soldier is thrown violently out of the tank, he lands on the ground dead. Snake walks over to him and fishes around inside his pockets for something. He finds it and walks over to the door the tank came out of.)
NULL
Well, Boss. I hope you are happy. He got the card.
NULL
...We'll play with him a little longer...
NULL
You would be wise not to underestimate him.
NULL
What did you think of him?
NULL
He is just as you said. In battle he is as if possessed by a demon. Much like you. I would expect no less. (Now Ocelot comes on the radio.)
NULL
You see? I told you so. But I will kill him.
NULL
So, General Ivan, I hear he took your hand as well as your dignity.
NULL
Watch your toungue, Shaman!
NULL
In the language of the Sioux people, "Sioux" means snake. It is known as an animal to be feared.
NULL
Well, Snake is mine now... When I meet him next, I'll take special care of him.
NULL
Not yet... Don't kill him yet...
NULL
He and I will meet again in battle.
NULL
Same prediction as always?
NULL
Yes. The raven on my head... it thirsts for his blood. (Snake is now inside the Nuclear Weapons Storage Building. Campbell calls on the Codec.)
NULL
Be careful. You absolutely must not use weapons in that area.
NULL
I've already programmed the nanomachines so that he won't be able to, Colonel.
NULL
What? What are you talking about?
NULL
Have you forgotten? That's where they keep the nuclear warheads. Can't you see them?
NULL
Yeah. There's lots of boxes piled up here, but... are they all warheads?
NULL
Yes. They're all dismantled warheads.
NULL
They just leave them here? It's like President Baker said... totally careless.
NULL
They're working on a limited budget. They try to put on a pretty face for the media, but this is the grim reality of it. Nastasha knows lots more than I do. Her frequency is 141.52.
NULL
All of the warheads in those boxes have had their detonation mechanisms removed so there's no fear of them exploding. But is the warheads are broken they might leak plutonium and that would be a serious problem.
NULL
Snake, you must never use your weapon on that floor. (Snake gets through the level with no trouble but when he gets to the lower level of the building he comes across a room with many different hazards. Once again Deepthroat calls.)
NULL
Snake! Watch out! That place is filled with gas. Also, the floor is electrified. First destroy the high voltage switch. Its the switchboard on the northwest wall.
NULL
But how? I can't reach it.
NULL
Use a remote-controlled missile. (Snake finds a remote-controlled missile and destroys the switch. He then goes down the corridor and into a room where there is no gas. He hears noises of people being attacked. Gunfire and screaming is heard. He goes into the next corridor and meets a gruesome scene. The corridor is filled with slaughtered guards. There is blood everywhere, on the floors, walls, and even on the ceiling.)
NULL
It looks like they were cut by some type of blade. (Snake then sees a guard stumble out from behind a corner. He is bleeding profusely.)
NULL
It's... it's a ghost! Uuurgh! (The guard falls to the ground. Snake rounds the corner and hears more gunfire. He then sees a guard being held up in the air by some invisible figure. It is the ninja. He slices the guards back and then goes inside a door, taking no notice of Snake. Snake follows him.) (Snake enters the lab and sees the ninja with his stealth camouflage on. He is following a small, wirey scientist who is backing away into a corner. The scientist is so scared that he wets his pants.)
NULL
Stealth camouflage? Who are you? (The ninja turns off the stealth.)
NULL
Where is my friend?
NULL
What... what are you talking about? (The scientist sees Snake approaching.)
NULL
What next? (The ninja turns around slowly to face Snake.)
NULL
Snake!!
NULL
You're that ninja.
NULL
I've been waiting for you, Snake.
NULL
Who are you?
NULL
Neither enemy nor friend. I am back from a world where such words are meaningless. I've removed all obstacles. Now you and I will battle to the death.
NULL
What do you want?
NULL
I've waited a long time for this day. Now I wanto to enjoy the moment.
NULL
What... what's with these guys? It's like one of my Japanese animes...
NULL
I've come from another world to do battle with you.
NULL
What is it? Revenge?
NULL
It is nothing so trivial as revenge. A fight to the death with you. Only in that can my soul find respite. I will kill you or you will kill me... it makes no difference. (Slowly the scientist gets up. He is carefully watching the two talk in case they were to see him. He quickly runs to a locker and shuts the door before either Snake or the Ninja can stop him.)
NULL
Waaaaaaaaahhhhhh!
NULL
Hah! Fine! He can watch from inside there.
NULL
I need that man. Keep your hands off him.
NULL
Now Snake. Make me feel alive again. (The ninja brandishes his sword at Snake and they battle. After fighting for a while they pause. The ninja is kneeling on the ground.)
NULL
I felt that, Snake... Do you remember me now?
NULL
It can't be! You were killed in Zanzibar... (Just like he did before the ninja convulses.)
NULL
Eeeeeyaaaaaah!
NULL
What!? Not again!!
NULL
The... the mediciiiiine! (The ninja falls to the ground at Snake's feet and begins to bang his head on the ground.)
NULL
What's happening?
NULL
...I...I... I'm losing myself...
NULL
Is it over?
NULL
Waaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!! (The ninja runs out of the room quickly and leaves Snake behind. Snake quickly calls the Colonel.)
NULL
Grey Fox... Colonel, that ninja is Grey Fox. No doubt about it.
NULL
Rediculous! You of all people should know he died in Zanzibar.
NULL
No, he should have died... but he didn't.
NULL
What!?
NULL
It happened before I joined FOX-HOUND's medical staff. They were using a soldier for their gene therapy experiments.
NULL
I never heard that.
NULL
It happened right after you retired. My predecessor, Dr. Clark, was in charge.
NULL
Dr. Clark...
NULL
Yes. He started the gene therapy project.
NULL
And where is he now?
NULL
He was killed in an explosion in his lab two years ago.
NULL
And what about this soldier?
NULL
Apparently for their test subject, they decided to use the body of a soldier who was recovered after the fall of Zanzibar...
NULL
And that was Grey Fox...
NULL
But he was already dead...
NULL
Yes. But they revived him. They fitted him with a prototype exoskeleton and kept him drugged for four years while they experimented on him like a plaything. Today's genome soldiers were born from those experiments.
NULL
That's the sickest thing I ever heard.
NULL
They used him to test all sorts of gene therapy techniques.
NULL
Naomi, why didn't you tell us about this sooner?
NULL
Because it's confidential information.
NULL
Is that the only reason?
NULL
...
NULL
What happened to Grey Fox after that?
NULL
The record says he died in the explosion.
NULL
I see... But even if that ninja is Grey Fox, the question is why?
NULL
From what I could tell, he didn't know who he was.
NULL
Are you saying that he's just a mindless robot?
NULL
I'm not sure, but he seems intent on fighting me to the death. We'll meet again, I know it.
NULL
So you'll fight again? Until you kill him?
NULL
Hmmmmm... I'd rather not, but maybe that's what he wants...
NULL
.... (Snake signs off and approaches the locker where the scientist is hiding.)
NULL
How long are you going to stay in there?
NULL
Huh? ...are you one of them?
NULL
No, I'm not. I always work alone.
NULL
Alone? Are you an Otaku too?
NULL
C'mon, get out. We can't stay here forver. (The scientist finally opens the locker and looks at Snake.)
NULL
Your uniform is different from theirs.
NULL
You're the Metal Gear shief engineer, Hal Emmerich, right?
NULL
You know me?
NULL
I heard about you from Meryl.
NULL
Oh. So you're here to rescue me?
NULL
Sorry, but no. There's something that I've got to do first.
NULL
Oh, well... at least you're not one of them... (Emmerich begins to walk across the room, but he is limping badly.)
NULL
Huh? Are you hurt?
NULL
I'm okay. I just twisted my ankle a little bit trying to get away.
NULL
Well, if that's all, it's nothing to worry about. I want to ask you something. I need information about Metal Gear.
NULL
Huh? Metal Gear?
NULL
Yeah. What's Metal Gear really designed for?
NULL
It's a mobile TMD. It's designed to shoot down nuclear missiles, only for defensive purposes of course. (Snake grabs Emmerich by the collar and holds him up, shaking him.)
NULL
Liar! I already know that Metal Gear is nothing more than a nuclear-equipped, walking death mobile.
NULL
Nuclear? What are you talking about?
NULL
The terrorists are planning to use Metal Gear to launch a nuclear missile. You telling me I didn't know?
NULL
They're going to put a nuclear missile into Metal Gear's TMD missile module?
NULL
Wrong. From the beginning, the purpose of this exercise was to test Metal Gear's nuclear launch capability using a dummy nuclear warhead. The terrorists are just continuing the work you started. (Snake throws Dr. Emmerich away from him.)
NULL
No, you're wrong....
NULL
I heard it directly from your boss, Baker.
NULL
No... a nuclear missile on Rex?
NULL
...So you really didn't know?
NULL
No. All the armamnet was built by a seperate department and the president personally supervised the final assembly of the main unit.
NULL
President Baker?
NULL
Yeah. I was never told exactly what they armed Rex with. I...I only know it's equipped with a vulcan cannon, laser, and a rail gun. (Scenes of Metal Gear Rex are shown on screen.)
NULL
A rail gun you said?
NULL
Yeah. It uses magnets to fire bullets at extremely high velocities. The technology was originally developed for the SDI system and later scrapped. We were successful in miniaturizing it in a joint venture between ArmsTech and Rivermore National Labs. The rail gun is on Rex's right arm.
NULL
Metal Gear's main funtion is to launch nuclear missiles. You're sure you're not forgetting something?
NULL
It's true that Metal Gear has a missile module on his back that can carry up to eight missiles. But are you saying it was originally meant to carry nuclear missiles? (We are now back in the lab where Otacon and Snake are talking.)
NULL
Yeah, but that's not all I think. If Metal Gear fired only standard nuclear missiles, then they should already have all the practical data they need.
NULL
No... could it be? (Scenes of nuclear weapons exploding are shown.)
NULL
Metal Gear's co-developer, Rvermore National Labs, was working on a new type of nuclear weapon. They were using NOVA and NIF laser nuclear fusion testing equipment and supercomputers.
NULL
So they developed a new type of nuclear weapon in a VR testing lab, huh?
NULL
Yes, but, you can't use virtual data on a battlefield. They would need actual launch data. (We are back in the lab. Emmerich shows Snake some of the supercomputers used to do the testing)
NULL
These are some of the supercomputers. If you link these you can test everything in a virtual environment. But it's all just theoretical.
NULL
So this exercise was designed to test the real thing?
NULL
What did our president do? If the terrorists launch that thing... Damn!! ...Damn!! (Emmerich is on the ground now banging his fist against it.)
NULL
I'm such a fool! It's all my fault... (Scenes from the Hiroshima bomb are shown.)
NULL
The truth is... my grandfather was part of the Manhattan Project. He suffered with the guilt for the rest of his life. And my father... he was born on August 6, 1945...
NULL
The day of the Hiroshima bomb... God's got a sense of humour all right.
NULL
Three generations of Emmeich men... We must have the curse of nuclear weapons written into our DNA. (Back in the lab)
NULL
I used to think I could use science to help mankind. But the one that wound up getting used was me. Using science to help mankind. that's just in the movies...
NULL
That's enough crying. Pull yourself together! Where is Metal Gear? Where on this base are they keeping it? (Rex is shown.)
NULL
Rex is in the underground maintainence base.
NULL
Where is that?
NULL
North of the Communications Tower. But it's a long way there.
NULL
The emergency override system for the detonation code is there too?
NULL
Yeah, in the maintenance base's Control Room. You better hurry. If they were planning a launch from the start, then their ballistic program is probably finished. And since they haven't called for me in a few hours, they must not need me. In other words, they must be ready to launch.
NULL
Meryl's got the detonation override keys. We'll link up with her.
NULL
If we can't override the launch we'll have to destroy Rex. (Back in the lab.)
NULL
I'll show you the way. (Emmerich makes to walk away but Snake stops him.)
NULL
On that leg of yours? You'll just slow me down.
NULL
You'll need me if you're gonna destroy Rex.
NULL
I don't need you. I just need your brain.
NULL
I created Rex. It's my right... my duty to destroy him.
NULL
If you get a chance, try to escape. When the coast is clear I'll try to contact you by Codec.
NULL
How am I supposed to escape from an island?
NULL
Okay.
NULL
So what then?
NULL
I want you to hide somewhere and keep me informed. You know this place well, don't you?
NULL
Of course I do. And don't worry. I've got this. (Emmerich reaches up to his shoulder and activates his stealth camouflage.)
NULL
It's the same stealth technology as the ninja. FOX-HOUND was going to use them, but... With this I'll be fine, bad leg and all.
NULL
Good. But I want Meryl to watch after you too. (Snake kneels down and calls Meryl on the Codec.)
NULL
Meryl, the engineer's okay.
NULL
That's a relief.
NULL
I want you to look after him. Where are you now?
NULL
Very close. (Someone is shouting in the background.)
NULL
There she is! Over there!
NULL
Oh no! Damn... they've spotted me!!
NULL
Meryl! What happened!? (Snake signs off the codec quickly after Meryl goes offline.)
NULL
Something's wrong.
NULL
Did you hear something? Wasn't that some kind of music?
NULL
What did she look like?
NULL
She... she was wearing the same green uniform as the terrorists. (Flashbacks to when Meryl excaped from the prison.)
NULL
A disguise?
NULL
She had such a cute way of walking. She kind of wiggles her behind.
NULL
You were really looking.
NULL
Well... she's got a very cute behind...
NULL
Way of walking, huh?
NULL
If she's disguised as the enemy, you'll have to contact her when she's alone, huh? There's only one place where we can be sure she's by herself.
NULL
Where's that?
NULL
Don't be so dense... (Emmerich pulls something out of his lab coat and hands it to Snake.)
NULL
Here, use this security card. It's security level 4.
NULL
You're not in pain, are you?
NULL
Huh?
NULL
You feel okay? Nothing bothering you?
NULL
What's wrong? Getting all fiendly all of a sudden?
NULL
Oh nothing.... I'm glad you're okay.
NULL
You're strange.
NULL
I'm a little nervous. Everyone else I've saved suddenly dies.
NULL
You're bad luck.
NULL
Forget it, Doctor.
NULL
Call me, Otacon.
NULL
Otacon?
NULL
It stands for Otaku Convention. An Otaku is a guy like me who likes Japanimation. (Japanese anime clips are shown.)
NULL
Japan was the first country to successfully make bipedal robots. They're still the best today in the field of robotics.
NULL
And Japanese cartoons played some part in that?
NULL
They did. I didn't get into science to make nuclear weapons, you know.
NULL
That's what all scientists say.
NULL
I became a scientist because I wanted to make robots like the ones in the Japanese Animes. Really, it's true.
NULL
Just sounds like a childish excuse to me.
NULL
You're right. We have to take responsibility. Science has always thrived on war. The greatest weapons of mass destruction were created by scientists who wanted to be famous. But that's all over now. I won't take part in murder anymore.
NULL
Whatever. All I want from you is information.
NULL
Sure. I know everything about this whole base. About this base or Rex. Also, with this stealth camouflage, I can sneak in and out of the armory and mess hall. If you need ammo or rations, just tell me and I'll bring them to you. (Otacon turns on his stealth camouflage.)
NULL
I'm on frequency 141.12. See ya later. (Otacon exits the lab, leaving Snake behind. Snake heads off to find Meryl. He does and meets her in the women's bathroom in the Nuclear Warhead Storage Building.)
