STILL ALIVE

*Chapters may or not be added, this is actually the first time I'm going to post a story on FanFiction.

PROLOUGE :TOUGH TIME IN DUBAI

"Two tangoes. Want me to take them out?" "No, I think I can take them from here." "Shit, there's a technical rolling up. Hold your fire." "Roger." "Wait….who the fu"

Robin and Stargazer's communication was halted by a sudden burst of light. What followed was a ball of fire, with olive-skinned men in jackets and shorts screaming in agony. "Let's get the fuck out of here…" said Stargazer, dazed by the intensity of the explosion. "Yeah…let's get out of here…" They both met up in one of the many alleyways of the war-torn city of Dubai, currently undergoing a civil war. "Alright, missions botched, got any idea where we're going to extract?" Robin said. "No, in fact, I have no clue, but we're going to get out somehow," Stargazer replied. Checking their gear for the last time, they moved into the heart of the city.

"I still want to know…what in the hell was that?" Robin asked. "No idea, but I know it wasn't an accident," Stargazer replied. "We still have to find Sting and Celeron." They halted at a corner. Robin leaned over to his left to see what was on the other street. "I count five tangoes. All skinnies." "Let's take them out." Robin, armed with a suppressed M4 Carbine and a holographic sight, presumed to take pointman. Stargazer, armed with a suppressed HK416, watched their six. "Three…two…one…GO!"

They moved with precision, Robin taking out two, and Stargazer taking out the rest. In seconds, all five of the tangoes had been taken down. "Nice hunting. Let's get going," Robin said. "Sting and Cel should be somewhere around here. Reloading their weapons, they continued to maneuver around the projects and into Dubai.

It had been two full hours before Robin and Stargazer were able to get into the city. However, now with the quiet, but eerie suburban area behind them, the noise of the war going on in the city proved to be quite unsettling. But, now they could finally focus on regrouping with Sting and Celeron and getting out. "Alright, let's try the comms, see if they're on." Robin turned on his walkie talkie. "Fox to Zulu, do you copy, Fox to Zulu, do you copy?" A few seconds passed. "Zulu to Fox, we copy." A wave of relief passed over Robin and Stargazer. "Where are you?" "Right behind you." What followed was a loud skeeeeet and a roaring engine. Robin and Stargazer looked behind them to see a van with its door open, with Celeron gesturing them to hurry up and get inside. They did exactly that. The van roared again, and Sting gunned it out of the city.
