Stage 2 : Washington DC - Destroyed Subway

Incoming from Benton :
You're lucky to be alive. Ten square blocks of downtown D.C. just sank 20 feet into the ground. It looks like Rhoemer had the entire subway wired to explode as part of his escape plan.
It's likely you've cut his time table short, and that he's still down there with you. Aramov and Girdeux also remain unaccounted for. Don't let Rhoemer escape that terminal. And be aware that you're now completely cut off from all reinforcements.

Note : Stage 2 is actually a short stage, but this stage will make you frustrated... VERY FRUSTRATED (I just going round and round for more than 1.5 hour just looking for the way out). The main purpose of this stage is to get out from the lower level of the subway's terminal, and the stage emphasizes on the pathfinding. I will guide you through the map. Look that the map doesn't have any direction like the first stage map, so I will call upper part of the map = north, left = west, right = east, and lower part = south....OK ??

Go along the path to the south from where you start. You will find a box with flak jacket inside. Then cross the subway track to the east. After going up to the terminal again, go to the north. Beware of a burning enemy soldier come towards you - you cannot shoot him down, just move backward to avoid him and then wait until the fire stop burning. Then walk to the north, then to the east. There are 2 enemies with M-16. Cross the railroad track to the east, then climb the passanger car train. Walk on top of the train to the south and Lian Xing will call you to help the CBDC officer. Jump down from the train roof and then shoot two enemies with M-16 rifle. There's an annoying enemy who will lob a grenade towards you. He wears a flak jacket, too, which makes him super annoying ^_^. Remember that one explosion will kill you, so stay away from his grenade and shoot him with your M-16. Then use your flashlight on the railtrack - you will see a box with a C4 explosive inside ( #1st CHECKPOINT )

When you pick up the explosive, an enemy will shoot you from a ledge above the burning train. Remember this 'most important' ledge - this ledge is the ledge that will take you to the upper level of subway's terminal. So after taking the C4 explosives, go to the place where the grenade lobber stands then go south. You will come to a place where there's a red box surrounded by burning trains on the left and on the right. Climb the red box, then face east. Press Triangle and you will climb to the ledge where the enemy shot you before. Go across the 'Danger' letter, then face west. Press Triangle again to pull yourself up. Face east again and press triangle and up button to go to the ledge. Walk to the north and press triangle to hang on the pipe. Press Right to move Gabriel to the right until the pipe ends. Press Down to go to the ledge under him and...... You succeeded to go to the upper level ....FIUUHH (and that takes me more than 1.5 hours ^_^).

After that, go to the north to reach the place where the map shows you to. On the way there, Lian Xing will call you. Go north again to see a bomb on the track on the right (east) side. Ignore the bomb cause you cannot do anything to that bomb. Go to the place where the map asked you to, and you'll come to a blocked passage. Use the C4 explosives on the blocked passage, then move out of the way. The bomb will explode, and the passageway will open. The CBDC officer will come to get the bomb. Go along with him and Lian Xing will asks you to protect this person. Two enemies with M-16 will come from the south and one enemy with M-16 will come from the north. Kill them to protect the CBDC officer, and ....(#2nd CHECKPOINT)

Check the map to see where Rhoemer is, then try to go following her path. When you approach the path, Gabriel will call Lian Xing, telling that the path is blocked by fire from the ruptured pipe. She will tell Gabriel to find and shut the gas mains. Go south past the bomb's place and then go to the west. Cross the railroad. Use your flashlight, then go south again. You will reach a pole with a picture of a gas - it's the gas mains. Use triangle button to shut it. Go back to the place where Rhoemer went. Since the gas is closed, there's no fire blocking the path. Climb the box near the passanger car, and then climb the train. Go to the north and Lian Xing will contact you again. After that, jump down the train. Move north cautiously, and you will see a burning enemy is running towards you. Face back by tapping Down, Down on the controller pad, then run towards the train again. There's an enemy on the train, so you have to shoot him, then move aside so the burning enemy does not hit you. Wait until the fire is out, then go north again to another train. Approach this train, but don't climb on the box yet. Instead move back and you will see that there's an enemy with M-16 waiting for you on the top of the train. Shoot him, then climb the train. Go north, jump down the train, and ......
