Uncharted Comic Series: #3

 By Mark Rodriguez (Originally written by Paige)

Nathan is stuck in another situation. He's surrounded by Mykola Rusnak and his men. He is forced to decipher something for them or else his friend Sully will die. How will he slip out of this one?

Nate explains that the Amber Seal was stolen to use to find the Amber Room, but the Ludlows, I mean Doughtys, have it, but Mykola doesn't believe the story. The mob leader explains that some of his guards saw Nate and Chloe steal the seal, and asks about where it's located. Sully refuses to tell him the location of the legend. This annoys Mykola and he has his two guards point their guns toward Sully.

Out of no where, Chloe appears, shoots at the mob members and frees Nate and Sully before they run to her car. This leads into a chase. Mykola follows close behind our heroes, shooting at their jeep and he's furious. A cliff is coming up, Nate and Sully grow concerned. Chloe easily maneuvers the turn, but the following car drives off the cliff and explodes! The three look over at the destruction. Nate comments about how terrifying, but impressive, Chloe's skills are and asks what he owes her. This would be the second time she saved him in this issue. Chloe asks for a ticket to the Amber Room, and he agrees but gets dragged away by Sully. She mocks them that she only just saved them, nothing big. The guys agree that she can come, but under one circumstance; which is "no funny business". "Cross my heart" she says.

 Chloe asks when they have to head out. Sully explains they have to as soon as possible because the Doughtys have a head start towards the location. Chloe asks if they really gave the coordinates, but Nate tells her they aren't the exact coordinates. The coordinates that were given, were off by a few miles.

Now they're at the North Pole. The group is watching over Rose and Michael. Michael is frustrated that their pilot is dropping out of the plan. The siblings and the rest of their crew walk towards a tent to figure out what to do. This is the time for Nate to sneak into the plane. When they get inside Nate jokes, "why leave a perfectly good plane." Sully says no to the plan and the two find the Amber Seal and the journal, but before they can leave, Michael and his group interrupts. 

Sully rolls his eyes and wonders can't they go a day without having a gun pointed at them. What happened to Chloe you might ask? Well, Rose brings in Chloe at gun point. Michael is frustrated for believing that Nate would give him the right coordinates. He's ready to get rid of the two. Rose stops him from shooting. She explains that the three can help. Nate can lead the group to where they need to go, Sully can fly the plane, and Chloe can be "insurance". Michael agrees, but if something sneaky happens, "bang, bang, goodbye."

 The group flies to the location explained in the journal, but as they fly into the location, it's disastrous. The plane's instruments stop working and eventually they make a crash landing. As they get off, Sully checks the damage to the plane, noticing that the landing gear was damaged. Michael demands that Sully stays to fix the gear, while everyone else looks for the Amber Room.

As everyone looked around the area, they notice it's full of planes. It's Byrd's camp. Rose wonders what else could be out there, maybe even the "lost city". Michael yells at her about the main mission is to find the Amber Room and they're not leaving till they find it. "Then I guess we're leaving now," Chloe states as she points to the remains of the Amber Room. The "Amber Room" is destroyed. But who or what destroyed it?

My Thoughts-

Paige will be giving her opinion on the overall story at the end of issue 6. There's not much I can say from my end except that I'm enjoying the story and the extra sass that Chloe brings to the story. She brings a bit of levity to the overall serious situation.

Who wouldn't trust that face?
