The year is 2020, the world is engulfed in a war of terrorism and world destruction looms at every corner. The thing that is responsible for this mess is an organization known as
the Black Hand! their objective is to cause anarchy and create a new world order of control by using chemical weapons of mass destruction. For two years the Entire world had
done everything to combat the Black Hand, but alas there power grows stronger...until a unmanned drone spotted Black Hand soldiers climbing the forbidden Mount Ebott to a
cave in the rocky monstrosity. This is what the United Nations believe to be the Black hands base of operations, the next step was to create a plan to destroy the Black Hands
base and end the war. This plan was known as Operation Swordbreaker, and it was the beginning of His scene fades into a forest and a mountain, everything is silent...suddenly
the silence is broken by the sound of a helicopter. It was a Military type Blackbird that had a symbol of a thunder bolt and text underneath it which said "Special Forces
Thunderstrike". Inside the Blackbird were four soldiers, one could be seen smoking a cigar while loading his gun. The soldier's hair was scruffy and brown but clean, yet his facial
hair told a different story being five o' cloak shadow, also the eyes of this soldier were a bright creamy jay green. His dog tag reads out lieutenant Jack Collembine, or as his
comrades suggest "Papa Bear". The other three nicknames were Reaper, a demolition specialist with grim reaper face paint. And like death, he does not speak. Hawk, the
stealth/technician of the team. He is as quick as the wind and as silent as a snake striking its prey. And Smalls, the recruit, being new to the team he hasn't picked up a specific
skill, but he is putting in the effort. Each of them were getting suited up, except Smalls who was more nervous than the others "You okay Smalls?" Jack asked while smoking his
cigar. "Y..Yes Sir I'm pitch perfect" Smalls exclaimed while clumsily loading his gun, "Hey smalls take this" Jack says in a calm voice while handing Smalls a cigar "Try it, it always
gets me through rough times." Smalls then takes the cigar and takes a puff "this*cough* pretty good *cough* S..Sir." Jack then looks at Smalls with a smirk...Hawk does the
same but Reaper looks at Smalls stoically. "You'll get use to it" Hawk says as he tries not to chuckle. Suddenly the once single green light inside the Blackbird turns red rapidly as
a siren goes off inside, "Alright everybody load up!" Jack exclaimed with a stoic look. As those words came out of Papa bears mouth everyone nodded in sequence except Smalls
who was as pale as a ghost. Then the doors open to what seemed to be a cave on the side of the mountain. "Alright everyone lets move!" soon after those words came out of
Jack's mouth one at a time all of the team members grappled down from the chopper. And as soon as the Lieutenant grappled down, the chopper took off leaving the four
soldiers alone on the mountain. After the Blackbird left Jack pulled out what seemed to be Comms "this is Papa bear to Command, do you read Command over." there was a
short static noise until a voice came out of the Comms "This is Command to Papa bear, We read you loud and clear, what is your status and location over" the voice commanded
in a deep raspy voice "This is Papa bear to command, we have arrived at the mountain and waiting for your go sir over!" Jack said while throwing away his cigar. During this
short post debriefing the three others were standing or siting on rocks waiting for the ok to go. "This is Command to Papa bear, the drone has picked up no activity outside
except for you. you are clear to move out Team Thunderstrike over!". After the Comms went to static Jack then demanded "Alright boys you heard Command!".
After awhile of walking deeper into the cave The soldiers came to a metal blast door, "Sir, permission to scan through the door to see what were up against." hawk said
examining the door. "Permission granted but make it fast.". Jack said while drinking from his flask. after permission was granted Hawk then put down what seemed to be a small
satellite dish that spun slowly while making a slow yet quiet beeping sound. Hawk then pulls a tablet out of his utility bag from his back that shows what the satellite is
transmitting, on the tablet screen it appears to show the blast door in front of them but its transparent for brief moments like a radar or sonar. Through the blast door were two
Black Hand soldiers guarding the door and two other soldiers standing on the opposite side of the room. "Reaper, mind setting charges on the door. thermite would do the trick",
Reaper then took out what seemed to be a medium sized pad that had text on it that read "explosives, please handle with care". Slowly but surely Reaper put the explosives on
the door, at this moment Smalls was still nervous but was determined to end this horrid war. After setting up the charges all four of the soldiers got in cover, Hawk and Reaper
got on both sides of the blast door while Jack and Smalls hid behind two large rocks on either side of the cave. "Were ready Papa bear, just give us the mark." hawk said while
thinking 'hopefully we'll get out of this alive.'. "alright! Breach in Three, Two, One!" as Papa bear said those words Reaper took out detonator and pressed the red button.
Moments before on the other side the two soldiers were in the middle of a conversation "So when do ya think the boss is gonna give us real food instead of those stinkin
rations!?" the first Soldier said while smoking a cigarette. "pfft, like that's gonna happen! Here let me tell ya this. The only way that's gonna happen is if this door gets blown
into piec...". Suddenly as the soldier was talking in midsentence the once blast door was reduced to flying pieces of metal and fire killing the two men. After the explosion there
was nothing but smoke, the Soldiers on the other side of the metal room had started shooting there Assault Rifles at the smoke non-stop until their clips were empty. After this
they reloaded there guns and moved carefully and cautiously to where the smoke was. The first soldier goes in the now destroyed door that is covered in smoke, fire,shrapnel,
and has the smell of burned metal. As the soldier walks through the door, being hidden by the smoke Hawk grabs the soldier silently and quickly slits his throat with a hunters
knife. As the second soldier gets a suspicious feeling and starts to walk through the door he gets blasted by a shotgun fired by Reaper sending the soldier flying into a metal table
in the middle of the room! After this Hawk drops the dead body and walks in the base with Jack, Smalls, and Reaper to examine the structure and dead bodies "S..Sir these Black
Hand soldiers there very poorly equipped!" Smalls said in a shaky voice "Strange, you would think that they would send in their toughest battled armored men not security
guards." Hawk said in an almost flabbergasted way. "There toying with us!" Jack said as the rest of the squad looks at him confused. "How do you know that Papa bear?" Hawk
said in disbelief, "look at the signs. Big blast door, four guards that are unequipped for there job. I mean how in the hell would they not hear a god damn black bird!" they all
looked in silence as Jack takes a deep breath "Hawk, why don't you take out the scanner?". After that command left the lieutenant's mouth Hawk quickly brought out the
scanner and tablet, after viewing the tablet hawk looked surprised "S..Sir t..there's... nothing on the feed How can thi...". Suddenly Hawk was cut off by Reaper shushing him
and pointing to one of the corners of the room, Hawk then looked over to see a surveillance camera with metal spines on its top.
Meanwhile on the top level of the base the scene switches to a control room with multiple scientists sitting at computers and testing out chemicals. And in the middle of all this
madness is a General standing at a desk that has been modified into a touch screen computer and in front of that desk was a strange circular chamber filled with flammable
chemicals, looking at the surveillance footage the General sees the Special Forces team in the room of dead bodies and shrapnel. The General than calls his adviser, "General
Valaskez they have taken the bait and their surprise is coming sir" the Advisor said in a stoic yet strong voice "good, good but make sure you hang there bodies outside for the
world to see that there last hope is dead...hehe". Jack then jokingly walks over to the camera and waves at it before shooting it with his pistol. "There, problem solved." Jack said
sarcastically. Moments after, General Valaskez then says "everything is going to plan. All we need to do is get them in the elevator and as soon as they reach level two...they'll be
full of lead." General Valaskez says as he smokes a black cigarette. "Sir should we take the elevator." Smalls said disgustingly because of the dead bodies, "I believe that would be
a unwise decision Smalls. Because of Papa bear's prediction I believe that if we take that elevator there would be a high chance of an ambush or worse the elevator being
sabotaged.". After Hawk's...descriptive answer to small's question Reaper then sees a vent that's big enough for the entire team, Reaper then taps Jack's shoulder and points to
the small tunnel. "hmmm, that could work Reaper" Jack says while putting a hand on Reapers shoulder "Sir how do you know that could lead to second floor?" Smalls asks
genuinely, but then Hawk budges in "Papa bear is right, the vents lead outside and that air coming out of that vent is cold. which means...". Suddenly Hawk is interrupted by
Jack "It means it leads up...now lets move team, I'll go first". Jack then climbs through the small vent followed by the rest of Team Thunderstrike, as they move through the
cramp tunnel they can feel the air grow colder and colder especially the metallic inners of the vent. Suddenly they reach a maintenance ladder that leads to the second floor. One
at a time the team climbs the ladder to a door, Jack then looks through the shudders of the locker like door to see a small confined office like control room with a large black
tinted window that is barely visible to see through on the outside of the control room. Within the control room was one heavily armored guard with a LMG but outside were 6
heavy guards facing the same elevator as downstairs. Jack then looks at Hawk who immediately knows what to do, He then moves silently by Jack and through the metal door.
As silently as an ocelot Hawk takes out his hunters knife and quickly stabs the heavy guard in the weak spot...the back. As Hawk stabs the guard He stands still then falls
speechless and paralyzed, after this happens the rest of the team climbs through of the door and crouch walks to Hawk who is examining the touch screen control panel in front
of him "Sir y..you were right. They were gonna ambush us!" Smalls exclaims in a whisper. "Papa bear it seems that this control panel...well...controls that elevator." Hawk says
while turning to Jack who had started to smirk "you guys thinking what I'm thinking?" Jack asked with the smirk slowly turning into a devious grin as everyone nods in
agreement. Outside the control room the heavy guards start to hear the elevator move upwards, they then get in cover behind the large metal/concreate pillars near the
elevator. Then the elevator opens and as those doors slide open, suddenly all the heavy guards unload all there heavy ammo into the elevator. Shooting non-stop until all their
ammo was gone, as they were confused on how there was no one inside. One of them realizes about the control room, he then looks behind him at the pitch black window
when suddenly bullets come out of the other side like lightning striking out of the night killing three men and wounding the one soldier that was facing Team Thunderstrike's
fire. The three soldiers including the wounded one get behind cover trying to reload as fast as they could. The wounded soldier pulled out a pistol clumsily as he shakes in fear.
suddenly both Jack with his special SMG and Reaper with his Highly powerful auto-shotgun come out guns blazing avoiding the heavy ammo being bombarded at them! Jack
then shot at one of the guards hitting the soldier in the glass shielded mask causing it to shatter and slash the guards face making him groan in pain and shoot wildly hitting the
walls and ceiling. Jack then aimed his weapon at the heavy soldier's head, He then pulled the trigger to find no response. Jack then took out the weapons clip which was empty
to reload, but He then found out that he was all out of clips "SHIT! You've got to be kidding me!" as Jack yelled these words the bloody faced heavy soldier grinned in a way only
nightmares are made of. The Heavily armored warrior then slowly made his way to the Lieutenant cornering him, and as soon as the soldier was about to end Jack...He was out
of ammo. In a quick haste the soldier dropped his LMG and took out a knife, then threw it at jack. But before it could even hit his face Jack catches it by the blade and throws it
back at the guard! The knife then went threw the guard's mask into his forehead, perfectly imbedding itself between the skull and the brain. The soldier than grabs at his head
in pain, falling to his knees in anguish, looking at Jack for mercy when Papa bear says "sorry...its the reflexes" Jack then kicks the knife into the guards brain killing him instantly.
On Reapers end, the soldier and him were in a cover based gun duel until the heavy soldiers ammo was empty, He then threw the LMG at Reaper who had disappeared.
Confused and scared the guard turned around to a stoic face in grim reaper face paint pointing a shotgun at his face before seconds later blowing his head clean off by the blast.
After this was over both Reaper and Jack go to the wounded soldier who was pointing His pistol at them but to shaky to aim straight, he then pulls the trigger but the gun
doesn't fire, the soldier then looks at the weapon to see it was on safety. Suddenly Jack pulls the wounded soldier up aggressively and tells him this " If you weren't being so
afraid I would of killed you right now but I want you to remember these faces...got it!" Jack says while pointing at himself and Reaper, He then throws the soldier on the bloody
ground which the soldier crawls away as fast as he could. Finally after all the chaos was over, Hawk and Smalls came out of the small office to see the sight in front of them
"M..my god!" Smalls said in disgust, almost vomiting. "Its okay smalls" Jack said while patting his back. Meanwhile on the next and final floor, the General was contemplating his
next plan, then he called his adviser. "yes General what is it that you need" there was a short pause then General Valaskez replied "Evacuate the base I'm going to leave a
surprise for this scum in our building" Valaskez said in a low deep voice. After this the adviser went to the loudspeakers and said "Code black! Code black! This is not a drill!
repeat, this is not a drill!". As this was going on Team Thunderstrike were hatching a plan to destroy the base. "Alright here's the plan Hawk you take the first level, Reaper and
Smalls you guys stay on this level. I'll be going on the third level to set the final charge. Remember we need to set the charges on the pipes, this will cause a chain reaction of
explosions thus destroying this place. After that, we get the hell out of here, blow it up, enjoy the fireworks and celebrate. Is everyone ready?" Everyone then looked at Jack and
nodded. After this everyone of Thunderstrike split up across the base setting the charges in each specific place. Smalls took the western sector of the second level, Reaper took
the eastern sector of the same level, Hawk took the Pipes near the once blast door, and Jack got on the almost broken elevator and pressed the third level button.
Slowly the elevator began to rise until it slowly stopped on the third level. Jack then Got out, looking around the quickly abandoned control room, suddenly the elevator fell to
the bottom and exploded. as soon as that happened Jack got a call from hawk "what the HELL are you doing up there Papa Bear!" Hawk said literately shouting in the comms
"The elevator just snapped, besides if the charges went off because of the explosion I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be talking to me right now Hawk." Jack said while looking
around. Then he spots the circular chamber of flammable chemical liquid that had pipes running into it, as Jack was placing the final charge he was suddenly knocked to the
ground by a solid punch. One moment his vision spinning, then it was red, but then Jack was able to get up and see clearly who threw that punch, it was General Valaskez. "I've
been waiting two years for this!? ARE YOU KIDDING?!" Jack then threw a punch, hitting Valaskez in the front of the face breaking the General's nose "GAHH! I haven't felt a
punch like that in a long time, to bad that its not a fist fight!" Valaskez then brought out a Military type combat knife, Jack did the same. Jack then strikes but Valaskez dodges
and slashes his arm. unexpectedly Valaskez lunges at Jack grabbing him in a choke hold but then Jack stabs Valakez's arm, Jack then gritted his teeth as Valaskez tightens his
hold, almost blacking out with his final strength Jack repeatedly stabs Valaskez in the shoulder causing him to lose his grip in pain. Jack then falls on his knees coughing and
gasping for air, suddnely Jack could feel a horrid sharp pain on his back plate as Valaskez stabs his back making Jack fall flat on his face grunting pain as he bleeds out. Valaskez
then grabs Jack by the hair making him kneel in front of the General " For two years...I've been waiting for victory and now its come. For two years I've been wishing to kill
scum like you...and now I have my wish!". Jack looked up slowly and pissed "...Your...forgetting one thing...", Valaskez then looks at Jack pitifully "and what is that AMERICAN
DOG!?" Jack then smirked "...If you want to kill someone you need to know where to HIT!". As those words came out of Jack's mouth He quickly took Valaskez's knife and
stabbed him in the Achilles Tendon causing him to Screech in pain and make him kneel at Jack's level giving him the opportunity to stab Valaskez in the stomach, mortally
wounding him. The General Looked at Jack for five seconds until coughing up blood and falling down on the cold hard ground. Slowly but surely Jack rose back on his feet and
slowly placed the final charge. Jack then commed his team members "This..is Papa bear..to Team Thunderstrike the final charge has been placed...over.". As He finished the
transmission there was a reply "this is Smalls to Papa bear, we regfyhgjhgbjn..." suddenly the words became scrambled, then it went to static. Confused, Jack shouted "This is
Papa bear to smalls do you read me...hello...smalls. Are you there!?". Suddenly Jack heard chuckling behind him...it was Valaskes "*chuckling as He coughs in pain* You..piece of
filth!" after saying this the mortally wounded General Opened His heavily decorated red jacked to reveal an explosive vest and a detonator in his right bloodied hand. After seeing
this Jack runs into another small control room to his left and got in cover, a few moments later the once dark, cold room with alarms blaring was then filled with hot fire, almost
burning jack. For one minute Jack felt nothing but shockwaves and hot sensations, with booming sounds below him. For that one minute Jack closed his eyes and backed away
from the blazing heat, he then opened his eyes surprised that he was still alive. Jack then looked outside the control room to see that the entire room and most of the mountain
top was gone, Jack then took a step outside the control room to be greeted by a massive, dark, gapping hole that was once the top of Mount Ebott and a couple metal supports
keeping what was left of the base unstably up below him. Jack than tried contacting the rest of the team to see if they were alive...non of them picked up, Jack, worrying about
his team Limped slowly to an emergency exit that lead to stairs. Suddenly what was remaining of the base started to vibrate, then it began to shake violently causing Jack to fall
on his feet as the concreate stairway began to crumble. In a desperate matter, Jack failed to rise on his feet as the entire room bent 40 degrees making Jack slide on his stomach
to a non existent wall that lead to Mount Ebott's gapping dark hole. As Jack was about to slide off the edge of the falling apart base, He grabbed on to a ledge. But because of the
wound in his back, He could not pull himself up or hold on any longer. As Jack lost his grip making his hand slip...he was saved, a hand grabbed his arm...it was Smalls who was
covered in ash and blood "d..dont worry Sir I got ya" in an almost traumatized voice. Jack then saw that because of both of there weights the supports were starting to bend and
break causing the room to lean more. Jack then looked at Smalls and said these grave words " Let me go Smalls...". Smalls gave Jack a shocked look "S..sir n..no I c..cant." Jack
then gave Smalls a warm smile, then slashed his arm making him let go of Jack. "gahh! Sir no!" Smalls screamed as Lieutenant Jack Collembine fell into the deep dark hole in
Mount Ebott being swallowed by black without making a sound.
