Jonathan Irons is standing before the United Nations, giving a speech...
Jonathan Irons: I am honored to be the first CEO of a private corporation to become a member of the United Nations Security Council. Unfortunately, my appearance today has been clouded by a flurry of speculation that my company is developing a weapon of mass destruction which would be capable of targeting specific ethnic groups. I want to address these allegations head on. Are we developing such a weapon? No we are not-because we've already developed it. But with all due respect, the United Nations is a relic from a different time when nations were unique in their ability to solve the world's problems. But that just isn't the case anymore. Primarily because you have you have outsourced the job to me. I have sent people to die in your wars. So I feel uniquely qualified to tell you, your wars don't work! Which is why my priorities have changed; from profits to policy. Because politicians don't know how to solve problems. But I do. So let's be clear. I am here to solve the world's problems. And I believe the world's problems... begin with you.
The scene switches to Jack Mitchell with Knox, Cormack and Gideon. They are looking at video footage of Irons
Mitchell: So what the hell was that?
Gideon: Couldn't tell you, mate, but it sounded a lot like Irons declaring war.
Mitchell: We took out his WMDs. Without Manticore, Atlas doesn't stand a chance...
Knox enters the room with a computer.
Knox: Cormack! You need to see this.
Cormack: Talk to me.
Knox: We cracked the encryption on the last set of uploads.
Cormack: What am I looking at?
A map of the world with potential targets in various countries is shown.
Knox: Potential targets-Irons had a fallback plan if Atlas was ever backed into a corner.
Cormack: A preemptive strike-he's gonna try and knock us out before the fight has even begun.
Mitchell: A direct attack on the US? Are we sure Irons is even up for that?
Gideon: So what's the play? No way Atlas can hit 'em all at once.
As Cormack speaks, the map zooms in onto San Francisco Bay.
Cormack: San Francisco. The entire third fleet is in the bay. I need you two on the ground now.
Gideon and Mitchell head out as the screen fades to black.

Mitchell is in a Pitbull with Gideon, operating an interface computer
Cormack: Gideon, report in.
Gideon: North side's all clear-wait, what's he playing at?
The vehicle speeds by.
Cormack: What do you got?
Gideon: He's rabbiting! Let's move!
Mitchell drives the Pitbull, pursuing the van.
Gideon: Go, go, go!
Gideon: White van with commercial plates just jumped the checkpoint! We're in pursuit!
Cormack: There could be anything inside that van. Pursue, but do not engage.
Gideon: Punch it, Mitchell.
As the vehicle pursues the van down the highway, a bus swerves and Mitchell takes a detour onto a muddly pathway
Gideon: Stay on him!
Knox: Three more vehicles just broke the checkpoint! They're heading your way!
Gideon: How the hell did ISR miss these bastards?
Explosions occur on the road and Gideon fires energy blasts at the getaway van. A tanker explodes.
Gideon: Get around that tanker!
Mitchell keeps driving when...
Gideon: Watch out!
Mitchell swerves onto another lane and eventually reaches the bridge
Cormack: All units, we have multiple Atlas vehicles converging on the bridge! I need an immediate three-sixty around the fleet! Kingpin, we have enemy targets on the bridge. Code Red on all units.
"Kingpin" McDonnell: Copy that. We are sending assets to assist.
Suddenly, an Atlas vehicle rams the Pitbull
Gideon: Hold on!
The Pitbull flips and collides with another car, Mitchell blacks out, but eventually regains conscious. 
Cormack: I need a roadblock, mid-span! We're close!
Radio: Zero-Zero-Two, Zero-Zero-Four, (unclear) from the north. Request RTB on station is five mikes.
Cormack: We don't have five minutes!
Mitchell exits the wrecked Pitbull while pulling out an HBRa3 w/ ACOG Scope. Gideon also exits, spitting out some blood from his mouth.
Gideon: You're good? Cormack, our Pitbull's out of action. Proceeding on foot!
Mitchell & Gideon move through the pile of vehicles and civilians on the Golden Gate Bridge to reach the target van.
Cormack: Atlas vehicles are deploying soldiers! They're closing on your position!
Gideon: We need these civilians off the bridge!
Cormack: SFPD is on the scene!
Atlas Soldiers are seen using their boosters, trying to prevent Sentinel & SFPD from securing the van.
Gideon: Boosters incoming!
A gunfight ensues as Sentinel & SFPD take out hostiles. There are vehicles that created a roadblock.
Gideon: Mitchell, engage your boosters! We need to get over this wreck!
Gideon & Mitchell boost, or go around, over the roadblock. More enemies appear on the other side. Open car doors are used as shields for protection.
Kingpin: Sentinel Zero-One, I need a sitrep.
Cormack: Kingpin, we are engaged with a large Atlas force on the bridge. We need to blockade any incoming ships.
Kingpin: Copy that. We're moving to intercept.
Sentinel & SFPD kill the enemies and move up, where more Atlas Soldiers, as well as their drones, are waiting for them. A gas tanker is seen in the battle zone.
Gideon: Keep away from that tanker!
The tanker blows up. A friendly chopper nearby gets too damaged and loses control, eventually blowing up and killing everyone onboard. 
As Mitchell & Gideon move up, Cormack contacts and shows them a camara feed of the white van stopped on the bridge.
Cormack: Gideon, we've got the van pinned, dead center of the span.
Gideon: We're almost there!
Gideon contacts another operative.
Gideon: Blue approaching! What's your status?
Sentinel Operative: Our Pitbull's dead. Target van got past!
Gideon: Copy!
More friendly choppers arrived to secure the van. There is still Atlas Soldiers up ahead.
Gideon: Cormack, I need covering fire!
Cormack: Negative, the van's the priority!
Gideon: Bollocks!
The area is clear, and everyone moves up where they engage the last remaining soldiers.
Gideon: Friendlies up ahead! Watch your fire!
Once all hostiles are dead, Mitchell & Gideon head to the target van.
Police Officer: Got the van boxed in, 50 meters.
Gideon: We're moving to assist!
The Sentinel Soldiers and San Francisco Police Department arrests Atlas Soldiers
Police Officer: Get out of the van! On the ground! On the goddamn ground!
Mitchell or a Sentinel Soldier takes down the driver.
Cormack: We've got the driver!
Gideon: Check that van, Mitchell!
Mitchell tries to open the back of the van, but it's locked. Mitchell takes out a blow torch and readies it, while the remaining Atlas Soldiers are arrested.
Kingpin: Sentinel Zero-One, the carrier is almost clear of the bridge.
As Mitchell tries to open the door again, he is bounced back from an explosion where the package is revealed to be a swarm of: 
Sentinel Operative: DRONES!
Cormack: Take them out, take them out!
Sentinel Operative: Shoot the drones!
Although some were destroyed, the rest of the drones flew away and attached themselves to the support ropes.
Gideon: Look out!
Cormack: Get back, everyone! Get back!
The drones self-destruct and damage the support ropes. The target van also self-destructs, bouncing Mitchell back onto the windshield of a SFPD cruiser. 
Sentinel Operative: Move! Move! Move!
Sentinel Operative: Get off the bridge! Get off the bridge!
A helicopter was damaged and falls on the bridge, almost hitting a Sentinel Operative as he runs away. 
Sentinel Operative: Look out!
Sentinel Operative: It's giving away!
The bridge starts to wiggle and the support ropes are cut loose, causing the middle of the bridge to collapse. Sentinel Operatives try to run away, with some succeeding. As for the others: 
Sentinel Operative: HEY, HELP ME!
Mitchell & some vehicles start to slide down on the now collapsed bridge and he heard the screams of some Sentinel Operatives as he saw them fell to their deaths. Mitchell manages to stop himself from falling, as he witnesses a Sentinel Operative saving himself and later gets rammed by two vehicles, either dying from impact or from the fall. Mitchell manages to save a police officer from falling as he holds on and pulls him up to safety. Then: 
Sentinel Operative: SHIT--!
Mitchell witnesses another Sentinel Operative on the bridge getting rammed by a bus, also dying from impact or from the fall. When everything finally settles down, Mitchell observes the collapsed bridge and destroyed vehicles on the carrier. Gideon finds Mitchell and boost to him.
Gideon: Mitchell, you alright mate? Fuckin' bastards...
Mitchell again observes the carnage as the mission fades to black and ends.
