I sadly do not own Transformers. T_T
"Lone Star, what's your position." A gruff voice asked into a walkie-talkie that he had in his left hand while looking into the black binoculars. A sight of a large stray building in the distance had caught his eyes as he was looking for anything out of the norm. His men were on a top-secret mission that required stealth and swiftness. Turning his head to the small group behind him he gave them a silent order with her right hand. All six men disperse almost in a blink of eye as static and a voice was heard over the radio.
"… I'm two miles south of your location, Black Cat."
Black Cat looked behind him and sure enough with a bit of searching he saw light reflect off a mirror about two miles away. Seeing one of his men in position he radio over the frequency for everyone. "Alright ladies switch to inferred and let's see what we can find." Almost instantly after he switched over to inferred the radio buzzed with information. Everyone wanted to pitch in and say what they were seeing. "Quiet over the lines!" Black Cat order and he was graced with silence.
"Timberwolf what do you see." There was a pause then a young male voice was heard.
"I'm not getting any life signal sir; it's all dark over here."
"Deadeye, what about you?"
"Nothing, Major."
Black Cat turned off the radio on his side for a moment and cursed. "Damn, the higher-ups are not going to be happy about…"
"Major! I got something!" The voice of another male broke through the radio conversation.
Thanking the gods for a breakthrough Black Cat spoke into the receiver. "Go ahead Hunter." He was hoping for anything that could save this mission.
"I've got a heat signature sir. It's weak but still holding strong." Static and what heard to be some rummaging before he continued. "Location is about…100 yards inside the entrance of the building and to the left in a room. That's all the life signatures I'm picking up Major."
Black Cat was very thankful but apprehensive because of the lack of movement from within the building. Double checking to see if everyone else was saying that there was no movement on their end he made his move. Voicing into the radio with concern clearly heard in his voice he talk to all of his men. "Alright men, I won't go into a long speech on how we should come out of this, but be on guard for anything that could be of harm to us." He paused for a moment to take a breath. "Hunter and Lone Star, keep your positions. Ivy, Timberwolf, and Deadeye you're with me. Middle West and Neuf Cat watch our backs." Not waiting for them to complain he voice over the radio with gusto, "Alright and GO!"
Everyone had moved from their spots and got back into the desired formation their Major wanted them in. An African-American high tailed it up to the gruff white Major with a med kit in his hands and looked at the building that they were coming upon with worry. A large muscular male and a somewhat scrawny young man also came forward into the group. Black Cat looked at the men that were going to follow him into the depths of the unknown one more time then radio to the rest of his men. "Keep the radios silence boys." That's all that was heard from their Major before the group of four hustled silently into the building.
Musky raw copper was the smell that hit their nostrils and if the Major wasn't present the rest of the team were sure to toss their stomach, but they all held it in, for the most part. Ivy, the medic of the group was already scanning for anything that showed signs of life recently. "I've got nothing sir. Well I do have signs of life for when people live here but it's all old, like three months old." Nothing was a use in the room so they headed forward to the only living soul that they had picked up on inferred.
The four men walk swiftly but silently through the rubble with only the LED flashlights giving them a source of light. What seemed like hours then finally arrived to the destination of where the heat signature of the human laid. Timberwolf and Deadeye had their M-16's in their hands for anything to happen. Black Cat and Ivy took one last peek at the scanner before they looked at each other and pushed the door open.
Voices. She could hear voices and it had woken her up from her nightmare induced sleep. Groaning and shifting in the musky dirty bed. Pale green eyes looked at the door in fear. Oh how she didn't want the pain to continue from those evil scientists study work. But if the loneliness of nothing happening the last few weeks brought her out of that stage of fear and placed her in a mood of hopefulness that someone was finally going to rescue her from this hell hole.
She knew she looked a mess with not having a shower in months and she could feel her ribs from the lack of food. The young female had it hard and she didn't know if the voices that were coming her way were going to make her worse than she already was or if they were going to save her from all the shit that she had gone through. She was scared and that was a fact and it only made it worse when she saw the glint of guns in her eyesight before then men. Whimpering softly she hissed in pain as she tried to get out of reach of the men. It was only the soft and caring voice of a gruffly male that put her at ease as they stepped forth into her prison.
"Easy, kid where not going to hurt you."
The young woman with pale green eyes looked at the man with fearful eyes but they were slowly losing the luster of fear as she saw that the man before her was one of her. He was an army brat just like her. Scooting closer to the man and his team knowing that she was safe she tried to ignore the pain that splintered up her frame. Cuts and bruises litter her frame, with the small blanket that covered her small body it was barely enough to hide the worse of her injuries underneath. She heard the black man gasp in shock from her body and flinched from the sound. The gasp vibrated and echoed in the room that the young girl was in and made the sound so much louder.
Really wanting to get out and to a place that was warm and had food she shut her eyes for a moment and then turned her full attention on the man who looked to be in charge of the group. "A-Are you here to…" Her voice was raspy from the lack of use and it she did not get to finish her question when she went into a coughing fit that shook her whole frame.
Ivy the medic instantly went into medic mode and took out a bottle of cool water and pressed it to the lips of the young female before him. He was glad to see that she greedily took the water from his hand and gulped it down. Just with this small interaction he could tell that she was highly malnourished, dehydrated, and injured. Letting go of the water bottle for the girl to drink on her own he pulled out some crackers to let her munch down on those for a few seconds. Turning to the Major he shook his head with anger. "We need to evacuate her ASAP."
Black Cat nodded his head as he came closer to the young female before squatting down so he was at her level. "Ms. Serenity Rose Witwicky? I'm Major James Castor of the CIA. We have looked long and hard to find you Ms. Witwicky."
Serenity was at a loss of words. This man who called himself James was part of the CIA, but that wasn't what shocked her. It was the fact that he knew her name. Serenity had been extremely careful when she had joined up with the army to not let out her name on personal matters, and to see that this guy knew of it she was wondering how he came to know of it. "H-How…?"
"I'm afraid that all questions will have to wait Ms. Witwicky, we need to get you out of here and back to the states ASAP." James turned to Ivy his medic and gave him a nod. Just from that look he scooted over to Serenity and picked her up bridal style with ease.
"Sorry about this miss, but we need to move fast." Ivy held her in his arms and turned from the broken bed that she had been sleeping on, to out the door and to the entrance.
Serenity moaned in pain from the sudden movement and grasped onto the medic with a tight grip. Every part of her body was protesting in pain and she knew that with all this going on she could be in worse shape than what her body had let on at the moment. Trembling with excitement to what was yet to come she grasped the dog tags that she still had hanging around her neck with her right hand as a habit that she always did when things were going right. Pale green orbs glazing over from the pain she didn't dare to look back as her prison instead she was looking forward to what could be done to save her and the hope to see her little brother.
Seeing that Ms. Witwicky was in good hands James turned on his radio. "Hunter get that helicopter in the vicinity of the building ASAP. We have precious cargo to evacuate." When James got a reply that they were fifteen minutes out he took out a special satellite phone and dialed a number to a special person that was waiting for this very phone call. He waited for two rings before the line was picked up.
"Castor, please tell me you found her." A worry older male voice asked as he awaited an answer.
"Mr. Keller we found her and she is alive, a little worse for wear but functional. Were currently waiting on transport to take her back to the main base and then we'll bring her home to the states." James replied as he held the phone to his head and covered the speaker part. He could just hear the rotors from the helicopter as it was coming in for a landing. Needing to wrap up the conversation he vaguely heard a prayer of gratitude from the Secretary of Defense as he was thanking him. "I have to go sir, our ride is here." He said goodbye to Keller before catching up with his fellow mates.
As they stepped out into the sunlight, James was able to give her a through once over her frame and what he saw made him growl in anger. Literally every inch of her pale skin was covered in small to large scars. The sun that was peeking through the few clouds that were in the sky made the scars shimmer a silvery color. The clothes that she wore were barely covering anything, they were shredded and had stains that looked like blood all over the once what use to look like white material. Hands clinching into a fist he looked at the dazed young woman with protect fullness in his cold hard brown eyes as they walked quickly to the waiting Eurocopter UH-72 Lakota. Helping the injured female get into the vehicle and strapping her in, he turned to the rest of the crew and gave the signal to go. "Let's go home."
