I do not own call of duty or any of its characters. I only own my OC's


Ch. 1

I jump out of the plane into the inky blackness alone. My mission, sneak into the fields just out side of St. Mere Eglise to pave the way for the main force, by placing a DZ beacon. My parachute violently jerks me back as it deploys allowing me to gently fall to the earth. I land near a farmhouse and try not to grunt from the hard landing. I cut my parachute and hide it in a nearby bush, hoping that I was niether seen nor heard.

Quietly I approach two Germans who are just outside of the farm house. "… I heard an officer say that our defenses near the port of Calais are being fortified and reinforced due to reports of the Enemy amassing forces near the south east English coast… "

'Good' I thought, 'they think the ghost army is real.'

I cautiously sneak around the back and find a back door to the house, praying that the hinges won't squeek. With a sigh of relief, I go inside and find a place to hide. I spot the counter, then I cut the lights, and quickly get into position.

From my position behind the countertop I can hear one of the Germans say, "Damn generator." My muscles begin to tense, and my pulse goes into overdrive with anticipation and fear. As he passes the counter I tackle him into the coffee table, breaking it on impact, and slit his throat. After hearing the racket, the second German rushes inside, gun ready, but I quickly throw my knife directly into the his chest before he can get a shot off.

Watching his body slide down the wall, the fact that I just killed two people hits me like a ton of bricks. And I can't help but just wonder what kind of life they had; questions like were they married, or did they have kids, flashed though my mind. The fact that it was either me or them did not console me very much, but it reminded me I still had a job to do.

So I walk over to the man, retrieve my knife, and sling his MP 42 over my shoulder, continuing down the path to my objective. Still in shock, realizing that these are only first of many that I will have to kill to survive.

A little ways down the path, I see another pathfinder, stuck in a tree. I rush over to him, only see that he is too far gone. I grab his dog tags and look at them. "Enddate" is all that it reads, confused I pocket them, and take his beacon.

As I continue down the path, I see a pillbox in the distance, and quickly move into the brush where the deeper shadows are, hoping that they didn't hear anything earlier and were on high alert. As I get closer I begin to hear a casual conversation, "… Checkmate! I win!" Exlaims the first one. "That's the fourth time in a row, you must be cheating." Wines the second one.

*SNAP*

I freeze in place terrified, my foot still on the twig I just broke. "Did you hear that?" asks a German. "Ya I did." Says the other. I hear them grab their rifles as they walk out. I slowly grab my M1 Carbine and level it at the first German.

*BANG* *BANG*

As the first German falls the second turns around, but it's too late.

*BANG* *BANG*

He hits the ground with a thud.

I quickly grab the beacon and enter the pillbox! Hearing a radio, I walk over to it. "… we heard gunshots, is everything ok." I grab the receiver andan sewer in German, "everything is ok now,there were two resistence fighters buut we took them out." "Who is this? Give me your identification number." Panicked, I shoot the radio, and rushed out of the front of the pillbox with the beacon, and set it up as fast as I can.

Almost instantly after I finish seting thebeacon up, the sound of planes is heard overhead. The AA and flack start and the paratroopers start jumping out. I nervously laugh, at the realization I almost didn't set it up in time.
