Edward kept off the main road and went slowly through the jungle. Careful not to alert any of the native fauna that might want him as a snack, and careful of even snapping a twig in fear it would alert somebody out here. When the jungle cleared up he stopped for a little while and took a few bites from one of the MRE's he brought with him and looked at his map. North east of his position was the town of Bekalo. If he kept up his current pace he would reach the town by midday, so he rolled up his map and left the clearing.
As he made his way through the jungle he hit a thick part that pushed him more towards the road. Also at this same time three technicals were rolling up and they stopped not far from his position. Edward was not sure if he was spotted or not so he froze and got as low as possible to watch. Luckily they weren't after him they had stopped somebody in the main road and took him prisoner. The convoy then rolled up the main road heading towards Bekalo. When Edward was sure it was clear he got moving again.
Besides stopping for the convoy Edward made it to the town in time. His green fatigues were covered in sweat and dirt from his trek through the jungle so he looked like a dirt poor soldier. He tucked his pistol in his belt line and covered it up with his shirt so nobody could see that he was armed. The first thought that came to mind when he saw Bekalo was the fact it looked like another shit hole town in the middle of fucking nowhere, the second thought was there was enough white skinned people to blend in so he did.
As he walked the streets hawkers cried out there wares gun sellers occasionally fired off their merchandise, people came up to him offering to sell him things like shampoos and other luxuries. He had no money so he turned them down. "First things first get money to buy a hotel room and some gear, then look for these other agents." He thought, his opportunity came as a lone merc walked out of the bar staggering drunk, Edward walked up to him and slung his arm around the merc "Hey buddy, there you are. Thought i lost you." He said the merc shrugged him off and said "Get the fuck off me i don't even know you."
"Are you too drunk to see man, it's me your friend."
"Fuck you!" The merc shouted and threw a clumsy punch, Edward easily caught it and threw the mercs arm around him once again, he got the merc moving this time when he started gripping a pressure point on back of the shoulder "Ow, okay man we'll move." The merc said and came along quietly. Edward took him around town until he found a quiet place to dispatch him, he slit the mercs throat in an alleyway and looted him. No gun which means that whoever he worked for kept a tight track on their guns, but he did have a crumpled 10 dollar bill and a fresh twenty. "American, that will get me noticed around here but i need somewhere to stay." Edward thought, before he left he hid the body amongst some trash. If he was found Edward would already be long gone.
So Edward settled for walking around town, when he found the hotel he walked inside and paid the going rate for a room. It was cheap he could afford to stay two nights if he didn't buy anything, and he didn't plan on staying long anyways. Just long enough to find some help from these other agents and get some intel on Scorpion.
