On the Trail of a Madman

Chapter 1: Bravo Team: KIA

Location- Alaska: Unknown Research facility

Date: 23/03/2005

Time: 20:11 Local Time

A team of 2 men, and 3 women trekked through the snow, taking care to avoid the sentries. Dressed in black uniforms, the only identity was a badge, with the initials S.I.D on the right hand side of their chests.

One of the women took out a pair of binoculars, and looked ahead.

"Hawk, theirs an opening, the air vents." she said

"Good job Jane, now, if our Intel is correct, Dr. Grosse is in the facility. We must capture him." Hawk said

"Look, I'm confused, nobody explained who Dr. Grosse is." the other man said

"He's a genetic research scientist Franklin. He's also a Nazi fanatic, with plans to clone Hitler." Jane said.

"That's correct." Hawk said, "Smith, you and Thomson take front, and cover us.

Meanwhile, inside the base, 3 captured agents of W.O.O.H.P began their escape attempt.

"Okay, the lipstick laser will cut the lock, we must be careful to avoid sentries, until we can at least cut off their alarm systems." Sam said

"Just hurry up, it's freezing in here." Clover complained

As the spies sneaked out of the cell, Alex accidentally hit a trip beam, and set off the alarms. Outside, the SID team's cover was blown. A burst of machine gun fire hit Jane, and she fell screaming, but didn't move again.

"NO!" Franklin yelled

"EAT THIS!" Hawk screamed, returning fire. Franklin took out his radio, and called base

"Cover blown, repeat, cover blown, Smith is down! Over!" Franklin radioed in

"Retreat, repeat, retreat." the control said, as a sniper scored lucky, and hit Franklin in the head, his screams reaching base, who could hear the hiss as blood shorted the radio

"Janson, Thomson, retreat!" Hawk commanded, "I'm going in!"

Alice Jansen and Jenny Thomson both headed to the mountains, to safety, as Hawk entered the base

"I've got to stop Grosse now." he thought, as he entered the main base. Heading to control, he overheard Grosse, and 3 unknown agents

"This is just a clone of my real body. Give my regards to WOOHP!" Grosse said, hitting the self destruct button

"FREEZE S.I.D!" Hawk said, entering the room, his pistol pointed at Grosse

"The British Special Investigation Division?" Sam said, "What are you doing here?"

"Business." Hawk said, aiming his gun at Grosse

"Agent John Hawk, you're too late!" Grosse said, "My true body is elsewhere, but you and these 3 WOOHP fools won't find it!"

John cocked his gun, and gazed at Grosse

"You have got to follow procedures! You can't shoot me." Grosse said

"I'm a bit of a bad boy, and besides, don't say nothing bout clones having rights!" John said, firing, his pistol, and killing Grosse, "Let's get the hell out of here! Our choppers 2 miles outside the base, and we have 5 minutes to get their!"

The spies and John ran out of the building, to the chopper, and they took off, with Alex piloting

"Two of my agents are on the mountain up their, we got to pick them up!" John said. As they spotted the two agents, they began to lower the ladder, but then the base suddenly detonated, and an avalanche swept Janson and Thomson to their deaths. John watched in horror, as they both were crushed under the snow. Less then a week later, John was in front of a panel of S.I.D directors.

"Name, Hawk, John Daniel, age 25, with the SID for five years." Commander Conner said

"The severity of this is extremely high Agent Hawk, this botched mission cost the British S.I.D £9 million, and the lives of 4 Bravo Team Agents. Not only that, you executed the suspect without a trial." 2nd commander Wolf said

"I already explained that in my report, Grosse was a clone and W.O.O.H.P agents were their, the alarms were tripped by one of their agents, that's what botched the operation." John said

"That part of the report was verified, W.O.O.H.P was to blame for that part, the question is, what were you doing with a 5 agent squad, under armed, following a hunch?" Conner demanded

"If I'd gone through your official procedures, Grosse would have been long gone, and we'd have been sitting on our arses sir!" John snapped

"Control yourself agent!" Conner ordered

"To hell with you!" John said, "I no longer want to be a part of this agency! Because of your procedures, and channels, we had to take risks to stop a dangerous man, and because of that, 4 people died! I quit!"

Two agents entered, and escorted John to the cells, as the directors decided that to do with him. Two weeks later, John was out of the SID, drinking his worries away.
