A Dark Secret- The Battles Won

Ok before I begin writing, Id like to adjust a few things. . . Such as the fact that Warrant Officer Santiago is a woman! My apologies to AxiomFable. And AzNxKnife, I’m pretty sure by now that your character is still part of the army but you wrote him to not be. Sorry bout that, but at least he’s doing great. Also if you read this and wonder why I’m typing this better then usual, I’m using the Microsoft Works Word Document thing-a-ma-bob. Now lets really get into the story!

Showa Town, Showa Gang Hideout
Mission: Stop the Showa Gang from producing more super enhanced monsters
Objective(s): Rescue Alpha Squad; Defeat Bodyguard B, Taurogunner, and The Boss
Mission Timer: 20 minutes

Cipher had to avoid the Taurogunner and the bazooka it carried. There was no way to combat the creature. The M90 shotgun could handle close range, not long range. The MA5C assault rifle couldn’t do its best with the armor the creature have. And to make matters worst, the Bodyguard B and The Boss would be fighting. He had little options, but he had to retreat, find a weapon locker, hope that he finds a rocket launcher or another bazooka, a few frags , and fight the thing once more.

He dodge the bazooka blast and ran out of the room. After a few minutes of playing ‘Search and Kill’ he found a few weapon lockers. After searching through many lockers he found what he needed, a M19 SSM Rocket Launcher. It was fully loaded and the locker next to that one contained ammo for the launcher and a few fragmentation grenades. He thought either to bring the shotgun or the assault rifle with him, and decided to settle with the assault rifle. The shotgun was running out of ammo anyways.

After checking the pins on the grenades, he heard some gunfire outside. Cipher equipped the shotgun and ran out to see what the hell was going on. To his surprise, First Sergeant Lee and 5 other Infantry had fought off almost an entire platoon of Showa Gunners, Super Fire Raccoons, and Taurogunners.

“Sergeant Alpha,” the first sergeant started, “where’s the rest of your squad as well as Omega Squad?”
“Sir! Alpha Squad is being held hostage by The Boss!” Cipher reported. “Not only that, but there is also a Taurogunner, which is that big thing over there, and a Bodyguard B in the area. I have gotten a rocket launcher to deal with the Taurogunner.”
“Leave the Bodyguard B to us? Alright then,” FSG Lee replied.

After a few minutes of capturing the bridge of the battle cruiser, it had become littered with dead Mateons and Grays alike. They were also running low on ammo. But that didn’t stop their mission. Captain Shackles used careful piloting to pilot the ship through the battle and towards the mother ship. Warrant Officer Santiago was trying to access the ships weapons. After going through all the possible key signatures, she finally found the weapon controls.

“Weapons are online now captain,” she reported.
“Thanks,” the captain replied, “And about time. We are now going to burn into the fusion reactor chamber in a few minutes. Get ready.”

And as signaled by the ‘get ready’ Mateons and Grays started rushing into the bridge. A few frags did the job. The battle cruiser was now near the area where the fusion reactor is. Santiago started firing lasers and missiles onto the outer wall of the ship. The wall didn’t take much to break.

The ship entered the fusion reactor room and Santiago activated the battle cruisers self destruct system. A 10 minute timer appeared like magic onto every remaining soldiers HUD.

“Lets move!” Shackles ordered. The squad, which is now a platoon due to 2 squad of soldiers, started to run into a corridor. While running Shackles asked Santiago, “Are you sure that you locked the self destruct system?”

“Positive. I’ve used a code that Mateons and Grays never seen before,” Santiago replied. They found contacts and had to pause to fight. They had elapsed about 3 minutes in the gun fight. After running around corridor to corridor, they finally found a life pod.

With only 4 minutes left they all piled into the corridor. The captain made sure that the last Gray that was standing died underneath his claymore rifle. He entered the life pod and closed the door.

Santiago was at the pilot seat and seemed to fly the pod with ease. They launched away from the ship and elapsed 3 minutes getting toward a safe distance. The ship started to glow a strange color and went boom.

It took about 3 dozen Mateon and Gray battle cruisers with it, leaving about 3 cruisers left. The aliens had no choice but to retreat. A few Blue Hawks decided to take one cruiser down, just to give them the message.

And that ended the battle in space. . . For now that is.

Cipher fired the 2nd rocket in the M19 SSM at the Taurogunner, and with that it blew the creature to pieces. FSG Lee and the rest of the squad defeated the Bodyguard B. Now all that remained was The Boss.

“Suppress!” the First Sergeant ordered. They started to fire their weapons at him. But The Boss just ran to a PFC, grabbed him by his face, and threw him into the wall. The First Sergeant continued firing his rail gun at The Boss’s eye. It started to bleed and he shouted in pain and covered his eye. Cipher aimed the AR at him and fired away. The bullets just broke on contact to The Boss’s skin and clothes.

Cipher slung the MA5C for the rocket launcher. He aimed the launcher and pulled the trigger. The tube fired a rocket. The Boss saw the rocket flying towards him and tried to block it with his fan. Could a rocket break a fan? The answer was yes. The rocket tore the fan and made contact with The Boss’s chest. It knocked him back and he started to change into a Fire Raccoon. But he chuckled.

“You think that killing me will stop the new monsters from being created?” he asked.
“What kind of crap are you talking about!?” Lee questioned.
“I’m not the only one creating monsters you know. And besides, Omega Squad 1 would be great allies for us
“Who’s us? Answer me!”

But The Boss turned into a Fire Raccoon and was unable to speak. Frustrated, Lee fired a round into the Fire Raccoon’s head.

“We should call for evac and get Alpha Squad 1 to safety,” Cipher suggested. Lee nodded.
“Lets hurry and get out of this place!” Lee shouted. After exiting the hideout and carrying Kelly, Sanderson, Argus, and Defiler, the Iron Falcon flew down and picked them up. Although a Iron Falcon wasn’t created for pick-ups, it managed to fly them back to the Military Base.

A few days later. . .

Sergeant Zhlink Sleyin was stationed in the snow area around the artificial island. He was pretty bored, all he do is paperwork and made sure no hostiles enter the main area. He drank a cup of coffee while finishing up the paperwork he was suppose to do, and in 30 minutes. He made a yawn as he checked the e-mail sent from the main base. He opened a file and his excitement grew.

Sender- General Shackles.
Reciever- Sergeant Sleyin
Subject- Temporary Position

Sergeant Sleyin, if you reading this then you’re having a special opportunity for you right now. After the recent battle in Showa, Private Nyugen, Private Argus, and Private Sanderson can’t be in combat so you can join Alpha Squad and work with Sergeant Alpha, Alpha Squad 1 squad leader for the next mission. Warrant Officer Santiago and First Sergeant Lee will also be in the next mission and as a temporary members of Alpha Squad 1. Please send your reply.

Sleyin started typing his reply.

Sender- Sergeant Sleyin
Reciever- Major Shackles
Subject- Re-Temporary Position

Congratulations on making to major sir, but to get back to the subject I’d like to accompany Sergeant Alpha in the next mission for Alpha Squad 1. I will be going back to the main base on a Panther and will meet up with Sergeant Alpha quickly.

He then sent the message and packed his stuff. Sleyin ran towards a Panther and climbed onto it.

The Panther is a very quick vehicle which can support 1 person. It is armed with a twin chain gun which could only be fired forward, so it is not that great for combat. The Humming Bird was built 14 years after the Panther so only a few still use the Panther.

He hit the ignition and the Panther moved quickly into the main area of the island.
