In the forests of Colorado, a pack of wolves was hard at work tearing apart a carcass of the buck they'd just brought down. Their snouts were still covered in fresh blood as they all growled, grunted, and barked at one another, while establishing their pecking order.

Looking at them through the lens of his long-distance camera, shielded by a fallen tree trunk, Mark Russell snapped picture after picture while listening carefully to their vocalisations through his directional microphone's mixer connected to his ...

Looking at them through the lens of his long-distance camera, shielded by a fallen tree trunk, Mark Russell snapped picture after picture while listening carefully to their vocalisations through his directional microphone's mixer connected to his computer. He closed his eyes as he processed the sounds in his head, filing them into various memorised categories in his brain while they continued their feast.

However, the sounds of thudding footsteps caught his, and the wolves, attention. They scattered into the trees nearby as Mark took off his headphones and stood up to observe a red/blue Titan stepping over patches of forest to walk over towards the open clearing. Mark seemed unsure whether to be surprised or narrow his eyes at the Jaeger, just as it slowed down and knelt down on one knee, now shutting down. A moment later, the rear hatch on the Conn-Pod opened up, the pilot now climbing down and reaching the ground.

The pilot removed his helmet to reveal Braedey himself. "Mr. Mark Russell?" He asked, Mark giving a single nod. "I am Braedey Martin of SHIELD. I was sent here to find you."

"Why?" Mark asked.

"I cannot disclose that information until they arrive on the scene." Braedey replied to him. "But I can tell you that it's a matter of importance beyond what you know."

Just then, the sounds of helicopter blades whirring caught Mark and Braedey's attention. They looked up to see the Osprey coming down to the clearing nearby. And as Mark's eyes landed on the MONARCH symbol on the bottom and sides, his jaw immediately went rigid. The sight of Serizawa and Graham emerging didn't help his mood any either, as well as an unknown guy.

At his cabin nearby, Serizawa and Graham gave him a brief update about what's happened. Apparently, at Outpost 61, Dr. Emma Russell and daughter Maddie were at the Outpost when Mothra hatched from her egg, when it was attacked by terrorists, some having been gunned down and left to die.

"The feed cuts there." Graham said, showing him the last available footage of Madison and Emma being escorted out of the temple by a mysterious man and his crew.
