Under the cover of darkness, the storm clouds seem to gather. "Drat this weather," murmured Breaker, realizing what it was doing to their equipment. Already antiquated enough and with no budget for updated versions, he was forced to use what they had. In stormy weather, though, it seemed worse. He checked the Weather Channel website again for an update. "Looks like we're going to get the rain they're calling for," he said to himself. "Might as well relax because it's going to be a long, boring night!"


Under the cover of darkness, a lone figure planted the special EMP purchased for just this occasion. Awaiting the signal and finally getting it, the device was activated. Now, the fun could begin.

Camouflaged gliders, almost invisible in the dark sky, flew past the sleepy guards, through the drizzling rain. It had been a long time since the Joe base was directly attacked and the soldiers had grown lax with their duty. No one noticed the gliders slide behind one of the hangars.

Lady Jaye handed out the gas masks and her team quickly made their way into the Joe headquarters. It was almost too easy, she thought. Being the middle of the night, only a skeleton staff was on duty. From their spies, they knew that only one would be manning the surveillance and in this weather, chances are he wasn't even doing that.

They were able to slip in quietly and set the gas. This was a no-engagement encounter, or supposed to be. If caught, of course they would fight, but they were taken steps to prevent that. It would not fit with the plan if they had to fight their way out. Feeling a bit like a sandman, the team split up and made sure the Joes would have pleasant dreams throughout the night, with no need to wake.

Making her way to the control room, Jaye found the Joe, Breaker, asleep. Knowing that he would not recognize her with the mask on, even if should awake, she quickly set to work. The gas would not last forever and this was to be a quick in-and-out.

She slid the flash drive into the USB port and uploaded the files. Because her flash drive had a special code, it awoke the computer and helped her plant the bug the Joes would need in their system and download information they needed for their plan to work.

As silently as they came, the team left. They met at their rendezvous point and headed out to meet Major Blood where he was standing by with his chopper. They left no trace they had been there, not the canisters of gas, nor the gliders they had landed with. As far as the Joe base knew, everyone had a very uneventful night.
