Chapter 2: The Briefing

The team sat down in the projection room awaiting their breifing. 'Hey, anyone have any ideas what this mission's all about?' asked Kaito. 'I heard Central Command was throwing a fit over something yesterday, could be related to that' replied Gumi. 'Some info leaked out or something' Len said 'they most likely want the people dead.'

The projector suddenly lit up and an image of woman sitting behind a desk appeared. She was wearing suit, with a tie, obviously someone from the higher ups. Her short blonde hair was partially tied in a bun behind her, while some strands fell down, over her face, covering it. The operatives usually did not know the names of these officials, so they were usually referred to as 'Sir' despite sometimes being female.

'Greetings Bravo Team, you're in early. However time is short, we have none to spare. One of our scientists by the name of Akita Nero has gone rogue. Intel shows us he will probably be hiding in a military base in the outskirts along with the rest of his family. The military has offered him protection and money in exchange for secrets regarding our new bio-experiment, the NEMESIS project. His death will not only serve to keep our secrets safe but it will also send a message to anyone else thinking of double crossing the corporation. Remember, no one leaves that base alive, you must make sure of that. Leave no trace which could link Umbrella to the attack on the base, and make sure that documents containing classified information are destroyed. In other words, burn the place down, leave no survivors.'

'With all due respect sir,' Meiko began 'A mission like this would be difficult to handle even for a USS team. I request you assign another team of operatives under my command' 'Dont be so quick to assume lead role, Agent Lupo' the hologram said. 'A member of Alpha Team shall join you for this mission and you are all to do as he says.' A door opened and a mysterious figure walked in. The team turned around and all gasped. It was HUNK. The team all saluted, and HUNK saluted back, before taking a seat. 'Since we cannot afford failure here, Agent HUNK shall be joining you for this mission, you are to give him full co operation, even if he asks for something unorthodox. If you return and HUNK reports you failed because you disobeyed orders, those who he blames will be shot.' 'Sir, do you eliminate any possibility Agent HUNK could falsely blame one of us for his own failures?' Meiko asked. HUNK sighed underneath his gas mask. 'Agent Lupo, HUNK doesnt make mistakes, and besides, he's an asset the corporation values way more that your entire team, dont take this personally' the hologram said. 'Very well, I apologize for the statement, sir' Meiko said turning to HUNK who gestured 'ok' with his hand.

'Now that you're all set and ready to go, the chopper is waiting for you outside, all of your weapons are in, you will gear up on the way there. There's no time to lose, get moving!' The team scrambled, making their way to the door, only to find HUNK was already getting in the chopper. It was so strange how HUNK was so near perfect, how he never made mistakes. It was almost as if he was some kind of robot. 'Was there even a human beneath that mask?' Meiko thought to herself as she go into the chopper.
