AN: I know something of this nature may only appeal to a male fan base, but if you are interested continue reading on I will try to explain everything as I go. There will be military ranks from every branch in the United States Military as well as some military terms and weapons named.

"Kid get down!" Soul screamed at the top of his lungs as enemy bullets rained over their heads. They were deep inside the enemy territory. This was an extremely tough operation for only four men. The gun fire began to die down after several minutes all four men were cut up from the rough terrain they had to sprint though.
"I thought the infiltration was supposed to be easy, very few guards." Mifune growled while he straightened his kevlar vest and jacket.
"This was one of the toughest assignments Admiral Clark could send us on..." Soul sighed readjusting the strap on his now muddy assault rifle.
"I still can't believe that asshole just dumped this kind of assignment on a half squad, it's bullshit." Black Star hissed lacing up his torn boot.
"At least we have a promotion in our futures you know guys..." Soul sighed as he shook mud off of his rifle, "anyhow we need to get moving we have three days to complete this assignment right commander?" Soul stood up and pulled Kid to his feet. Mifune soon followed.
"Lets go Star get off your ass we're moving!" Mifune hissed.
"Where to sir?" Soul asked looking towards Mifune who was yanking Black Star up off the ground.
"We're heading three kilometers northeast from here, it may take longer than expected though. If we aren't swift and silent this could mean life or death for us." Mifune's face was very serious almost grim.
"If we need to I know of an army base very close to the front lines, it's about 5 kilometers straight east so we wouldn't be going too far out of the way." Kid finally spoke up after clearing his mind. Their squad leader, Mifune nodded approvingly.
The four men began to creep into the jungles of Brazil moving silently, their mission was to eliminate a rebel camp housing a terrorist only known as the woman of spiders. The rebel camp located just off the eastern coast of Brazil was just off the front of the current United States and Brazil front. Their mission however ran deeper than just a nation's squabble their mission was of their dire importance for the protection of their country not just to help a power hungry politician.
"Sullivan Evans get your ass up now!" Admiral Clark yelled at the sleeping man.
"Sir! Chief Petty Officer Evans reporting!" Soul shot up from the cot in the barracks.
"You're being briefed by the fleet commander now go!" Admiral Clark continued yelling.
Soul ran off out of the barracks and continued to sprint towards the docked aircraft carrier in the harbor. 'The ship commander...' he thought as he ran 'Vice Admiral Albarn' Soul cringed at the thought. Soul continued to sprint up the stairs leading to the bridge of the ship where his team and the Vice Admiral were awaiting him.
"Operator Chief Petty Officer Evans reporting in!" Soul ran into the door saluting.
"At ease...Admiral Clark has given me the opportunity to lead you men for one very important mission. The mission you will be expected to carry out will be very difficult but I have no doubt you men can carry out these orders." Vice Admiral Albarn began "I need you four to infiltrate a rebel camp just 2 kilometers from the American-Brazilian front, there you'll find a terrorist that we only know by the alias the 'woman of spiders'." he looked towards Soul now "We need our top Navy SEAL sniper to get this job done, no questions asked and absolutely no failure." the Vice Admiral finally finished.
"Sir, I will do my very best job to get the target within my sights and finish the job." Soul yelped painfully as a certain Senior Chief Petty Officer jabbed her elbow into his side from behind.
"Sir, Senior Chief Petty Officer Maka Albarn, you requested to speak with me?" the young blonde girl walked into the large room from behind the group of Navy SEALs.
"Yes, you'll be assisting Lieutenant Barett with the insertion of the SEAL team just off the coast of eastern Brazil. He needs an expert gunner in the event of things not going according to plan." the Vice Admiral stared blankly at his only daughter he was sending off into a deadly situation.
"I will do my best sir." the young blonde said as she stepped backwards and out of the command center. Soul's body eased as the young blonde exited the room.
"Vice Admiral Albarn, you're potentially sending us into a death trap how can Admiral Clark justify this?" Mifune spoke up outraged with the situation.
"Samurai, we would send another team but you're the only team we're confident with giving the job to." the vice admiral said with a huff.
"All set Eater?" Jackknife, Lieutenant Barett, yelled from the front of the helicopter.
"Yeah now just have to wait for the sun to set." Soul gazed off towards the horizon the sun was slowing creeping towards. Soul was nervous, he could tell by the way his hands were shaking, they were practically being set up for failure. He knew Mifune wouldn't let them fail though.
"Brandon you ready to head out tonight?" Soul asked while rubbing his finger over the only bullet that he's taking for his sniper rifle.
"Yeah I'm ready, but I'm scared and also you know to call me Black Star as soon as a mission is accepted Soul." Black Star said as he shook with both fear and excitement.
"My bad how about you Kid?" Soul looked up at the taller black haired scout.
"My father wouldn't have let us take this mission if he knew it meant death for us." Kid stated with full confidence.
"We'll do what we need to, get out and be done with it, remember we have our leave after this assignment as long as we survive." Mifune, or Samurai, said nonchalantly as he packed his equipment into the helicopter.
"You guys are lucky getting leave after completing a certain amount of missions." Jackknife sighed as he checked his watch.
"Hey Lieutenant Barett! Nice to finally be working with you." Maka Albarn yelled while jogging towards the helipad.
"Nice of you to finally join us worm..." Soul said as he put the bullet in his pocket.
"Shut up asshole..." The blonde hissed as she hopped into the copilot seat of the helicopter.
"You know Eater you shouldn't talk to your superiors like that." Jackknife warned the white haired sniper who was sharpening and cleaning his Kabar knife.
"She's only my superior when I'm not on active duty, when I am given an assignment every single one of us drops our rank in the field." Soul spoke easily as he sheathed his knife.
"The sun is setting Samurai shall we take off?" Jackknife turned towards the resting man in the back of the helicopter.
"Yeah dusk works just fine, regardless though we need to be prepared I have no doubt that they knows we're coming." He opened his eyes and locked a magazine into his M4 carbine rifle. Black Star hopped into the back as he loaded a chain into his M60 machine gun. Kid climbed into the helicopter behind Soul who was assembling his own M4 rifle.
"Safeties on boys until we hit the ground, unless I tell you otherwise." Mifune told the guys.
"Yes sir!" The guys said in unison.
The helicopter began to stutter and the rotors started whirling to life. This marked mission number seventeen as a team as the helicopter took flight.
"Get the fuck down Star!" Mifune yelled as another storm of gunfire rained over the top of their heads.
"Why hasn't Soul taken the shot yet?" Black Star screamed to Mifune who was covering his head from flying debris.
"The target is not in sight I cannot take the shot, I repeat I cannot take the shot." Soul's voice rang through their earpieces. Black Star rounded the corner and pulled the trigger raining a torrent of bullets at their enemies. Soon after the gunfire died down but that left Black Star dangerously low on ammunition.
"We're clear down here move two hundred meters north from your current position Eater, we'll cover your advance if you have a clear shot do not hesitate." Mifune spoke into the receiver pinned to his collar.
"Like always." Soul said between the rustling of bushes.
Soul moved swiftly with Kid right on his heals, this is how they always worked they worked in pairs always watching, always waiting, this was to be done and it will be done. Soul looked down at the rifle he was carrying it had a single bullet chambered and ready to fire, just one.
"I can't believe this risk we were put into." Kid hissed as they ran along the brush line around to the other side of the rebel camp.
"It's what your father wanted done, Kid you know that." Soul said with an empty voice as he examined the camp.
"We're setting up here." Soul's voice rang through on the line.
"Roger that." Mifune and Black Star set up only fifty meters in front of him.
"Target in sight." Soul whispered.
Not seconds later the loud thud of his high powered sniper rifle rang through out the forest as the sirens began wailing within the camp.
"Target eliminated, we're going home." Soul confirmed his shot.
The team began to run hard west they were running to cross the front line they needed to get back on American friendly grounds. Soul threw his M4 to Kid as they began to sprint Mifune and Black Star had caught up to them in the time it had taken them to switch weapons and confirm the kill. Only then did the team notice the blood running from Soul's back but none of them had time to question it.
"We're roughly one kilometer out of Camp Stone let's set up and call in." Kid yelled as everyone came to a halt.
"Camp Stone, this is Navy SEAL operator Commander Mifune Leon, Samurai." Mifune yelled into the portable radio.
"Speak Commander Leon." Sounded a rough voice through our receiver.
"We're a four man SEAL team requesting immediate assistance, we have one injured operator. We are currently less than one kilometer east from your position." Mifune spoke calmly, but worriedly.
"We can not help you at that distance you need to move within three hundred meters of us, you'll either have to leave the operator behind or drag him along." the same rough voice spoke.
"Damn it that isn't an option we need your assistance now!" Mifune yelled furiously at the man on the other end.
"Commander I would suggest you watch your tone with a superior officer." the voice spoke once again this time more irritated.
"Sir my apologies sir." Mifune spoke more calmly now.
"We're sending a transport vehicle to search for you now. Hold tight Commander fine work." the voice spoke once more and clicked off.
Soul continued to bleed out as time ticked by but he managed to remain conscious as his comrades, more importantly friends, began to bandage him up. Soul had manged to take a random bullet to the side of his stomach although only a graze but it was enough to cause heavy bleeding and serious injury if not tended to immediately. The sound of gunfire could be heard farther down the front lines, but they were more intent on the growing sound of the jeep that was coming toward their position. The jeep came halting to a stop as the group of SEALs were huddled around their injured comrade who was now fading in and out of consciousness.
"Hurry get him in the jeep and lets go!" The woman yelled.
"Yes Ma'am! Let's go guys!" Mifune yelled and the guys jumped up and carried Soul towards the bed of the jeep and climbed in the seats after strapping Soul down in the back. The jeep lurched forward and made a quick u-turn speeding off.
"So I assume you're the commander the general told me about.
"Yes Ma'am Commander Leon of the Navy SEALs." Mifune responded
"Please no need for such formalities with a subordinate officer, Captain Nygus." The woman continued to drive.
"What's the name of the injured in back?" Nygus asked.
"Chief Petty Officer Sullivan "Soul Eater" Evans." Mifune answered looking back towards Soul.
"What's his condition?" She asked worriedly.
"Stable, Lieutenant Clark took care of what he could." Mifune answered.
"That's good, we'll need to get him to our base medic though quick." the worried expression slightly disappeared.
"Oh by chance, Lieutenant Clark are you related to Admiral Clark?" Nygus asked.
"My father, Captain." Kid answered.
The rest of the ride was silent and they made it back to Camp Stone quickly the jeep screeched to a halt as they got into the main area of the camp the medic and base commander were both there to meet the group arriving.
"Lieutenant Colonel we need to hurry and get him to surgery we've got a bullet lodged in his side." Nygus yelled as they wheeled a stretcher to the back of the jeep laying Soul on to it.
"Brigadier General Stein, I presume you are Commander Leon?" The general said lightly holding out his hand, Mifune took it.
"Commander Leon, I appreciate the last minute help sir." Mifune graciously thanked the general.
"We should get in contact with Admiral Clark as soon as possible." General Stein said leading the three men into the main office.
"It's been four days now Vice Admiral Albarn. Where are my men?" Admiral Clark growled as he walked into Albarn's office.
"I haven't received any word from them since they were sent out." Vice Admiral Albarn stated, nervously and impatient sounding.
"You do realize my son was in that team right Spirit?" Clark now hissed losing what patients he had left for his right hand man.
"I can't help losing contact of your team or son Derrick." Spirit said defensively as the phone on his desk began to ring.
"Put it on speaker." Clark barked an order than could not be denied.
"Vice Admiral Albarn? This is Brigadier General Stein of the United States Army. I have come to acquire four of your Navy SEAL operators. I'm here with Commander Leon, Lieutenant Clark, and Seaman Stern." Stein informed him, rather annoyed sounding.
"Brigadier General Stein this is Admiral Clark, the commander of the United States Navy SEALs operators, I'm grateful you got in contact with us what of our fourth operator of the SEAL team a Chief Petty Officer Sullivan Evans?" Clark asked as Senior Chief Petty Officer Albarn walked in with a repair report for her father.
"Chief Petty Officer Sullivan Evans is in critical condition with a bullet wound to the abdomen, he's currently in surgery." Stein reports. Maka had heard it all and as a result had dropped the nicely organized report scattering all over the floor.
