central Manchester plaza, near Manchester college and university
ghost squad, SAS ETCU
Without the laser scopes on the sniper rifle accuracy was horrible, relying on a large visual scopes above the barrel, but due to the large number of civilians they couldn't risk detection, hence the visual scope, Void 2 shifted next him, his electronic mufflers in his ears reducing the noise until it was almost unnoticeable.
"have you got it fully loaded?" Void 2 pulled out the compartment, revealing 4 bullets, before snapping it back into place with a dull hiss
"rappels in place?" Spectre 4 gave the two ropes a good tug and nodded
"EMB grenade?" Void 2 pulled out the EMB grenade and nodded
two hours later
confirmed, targets sighted, three jumpers and a pullover, one sports top between them, pro on a timed detonation. the others appear to be weapon-less"
"line up the rifle" the four men, apparently unaware of their impending death carried on walking appearing to be quite normal against the backdrop of primarily mixed race college students relaxing in the plaza, kept on walking until they were in the centre of the fairly large plaza, apparently just stopping to talk and share a joke.
"fire" Void 2 smiled briefly, flicked on the laser scopes and fired 4 shots each hitting one of the men in the knee, from there it was a straight forward operation; the EMB grenade was dropped, deactivating the bomb and any cameras as well as momentarily blinding and dazing anyone nearby, while Spectre 4 and Echo 1 rappelled down the building, capturing both the IED and the men for further interrogation, they then made their escape into the building quickly accessing the service shaft and climbing up and dumping the bodies on the roof top.
When they reached the roof Void 2 had already began putting the sniper rifle and the various other pieces of equipment away
"great jo..." the entire building then rocked, and a massive BOOM could be heard, the sound alone sending them all off their feet, screaming could be heard, probably from the civilians
"shit, the hell was that?" the question came from Void 2, as for the answer, god only knows.
They all ran to the edge peering over, aside form some structural damage the whatever it was hadn't caused much damage, before any of them could breath a sigh of relief some sort of green ball of light appeared with green lightening coming out of it, that lasted about a second before what looked like a brain on legs appeared and began walking around, giving off a high pitched squeal, by then the plaza was empty so it just walked around for a bit before disappearing into the shadows, they all glanced at each other, though it was hard to tell as they all had black body armour and green visors on, before slowly rappelling down the building, when they reached the bottom they spread out, holding their assault rifles at the ready, just right of him, Echo 1 heard a scream as the brain on legs launched itself at his head, he swung his rifle around and fired, one of the three shots in the burst hit the brain on legs and killed it almost instantly, then gravity took over and Echo 1's display was filled by the brain on legs recently deceased body, he grabbed it and flung it off, by then the others had noticed and looked at the brain on legs, it seemed to be quite fleshy, aside from the claws it waved around in the air when it walked, so quite harmless, really. They all froze when they heard a very strange sound like an electrical buzz and a bang, they all wheeled round and saw another green ball of light appear, they all raised there rifles, taking careful aim and switching to fully automatic, then a thing appeared and Echo 1's world flashed white then black...
AN: so how was it, my other has been taken down cause it wasn't going anywhere, but this one should be a lot better.
