Chapter 4: Maine tells a story
Tex's P.O.V
After our debriefing David showed us to our rooms.
Me, South and Carolina shared a room with three bunks, six beds in total. Wash, Maine, York, Wyoming and North are all sharing a room as well.
"These rooms are shit," South said.
"Well get use to it," Carolina started, "we might be here awhile."
"We'll be here till we find 'The Elites and take back whatever equipment they stole," I said.
Wash's P.O.V
We were all packing out stuff away when a thought occurred to me.
"How are we going to take out 'The Elites'?" I ask, "I mean we couldn't stop them from taking our equipment, so how the hell are we supposed to take our equipment back?"
"Don't question it Wash, or Tex or Carolina will beat your balls to a bloody pulp," York answered.
Maine grunted and Sigma appeared.
"My balls still hurt from the last time Tex punched me in the balls, it was after a mission where I disobeyed an order she gave me and I got her and Connecticut shot by a sniper," Sigma translated.
"Wait, that was like three months ago. How can they still hurt?" asked North.
Maine grunted again.
"She spent three hours repeatedly punching and kicking me in the balls," Sigma translated.
"Why didn't you fight back?" York asked.
He growled this time like it angered him to think about it.
"She pinned my arms and feet to the floor using lockdown pant after hitting me over the head with the butt of the pistol," Sigma translated again.
"Fuck, I thought you said she got shot," I said.
"She did, square in the chest with a sniper round trying to give me covering fire," Sigma started translating another growl, "She wasn't even supposed to be out the medical wing and it showed when I finally broke out of my lockdown paint restraints she collapse and I barely had time to catch her before she hit her head on the floor."
"Do you know why she collapsed?" Wyoming said deciding to join in on the conversation.
Maine grunted again.
"Yeah I do," Sigma started translating, "I saw a spot of blood on her chest and saw it spreading. So I picked her up and rushed her to the medical wing and it turned out she had torn her stitches. Even worse, apparently she shouldn't have been walking around let alone kicking the shit out of me."
"And whys that?" North inquired.
Maine grunted again.
"The bullet had been an inch away from penetrating her spine, her walking around could've damaged her back her even more," Sigma translated.
"Shit, How has she not killed you yet?" I asked.
"Don't know," Sigma said translating another growl, "ain't been able to sleep at night though, scared I'll wake up to find her shoving a grenade down my throat."
"You're fucked," I simply state.
David's P.O.V
"How are the guys you found doing that you found in Nuketown?" Salazar asked.
"They seem to be doing fine," I replied.
"What I want to know though is how they are able to sneak around an oil refinery full of mercs in armour like that?" Harper asked.
"Well, like I said earlier some have got armour enhancements, like Agent Wyoming can bend time to his will," I replied, "It was hilarious when we kicked the door down that went into the oil refinery mess hall."
"Why was that?" Harper asked sounding intrigued.
"The fight barely lasted ten seconds," I started saying, "we kicked the door down and the twenty or so mercs moving in slow motion because Agent Wyoming had already activated his time warp thingy and by the time the mercs had put their hands on their guns, we had already put two bullets in their heads."
We all laughed at the thought of mercs moving in slow motion and then dropping to the ground at regular speed.
Wash's P.O.V
It was later on in the day and I was walking down a corridor in my armour, but I had taken my helmet off and had left it in my room.
I was looking for David when I heard a thump in the room I was walking pass. I pulled Out a tac. 45 I had picked up for when I was walking around the Obama.
I looked inside the room and was shocked at what I saw. In the room stood two of 'The Elites,' Tech and Sniperz. I looked and saw they were in the 'Tech Labs.' I hit a red button on a radio David had given me earlier. It would take at least two minutes before anyone actually showed up.
I look back in the room and only saw Tech in the room. Then it hit me. Literally.
"Oh, sh…" I never got to finish because the next thing I know someone had hit me over the head and I'd blacked out.
Sniperz's P.O.V
"Tech, hurry up, one of the Freelancer guys spotted us," I said.
"How? We're not even in their time anymore. How is one of them here?" Tech asked.
"Don't know, but this place is going to be swarmed by SEALs and anymore of those Freelancer fucktards," I said.
He finished downloading the schematics for the device Assassin wanted and we activated our camouflage. We passed the unconscious Freelancer lying on the floor and ran to the hangar where our boat was docked.
We reached it and Salazar showed up. We deactivated our camouflage and I nodded to him. He deactivated the camouflage on the boat and we got in.
"Menendez is sending a hundred of his best mercs after you lot," Salazar said.
"How do you know?" I asked.
"One of the Freelancers overheard it and Menendez has also informed me that to make sure that the battle doesn't show up on Navy SEAL satellites," He replied.
"Ok, I'll inform Assassin about this," I replied.
He nods and lowers our boat into the water and we activate our camouflage systems and head back to base.
Tex's P.O.V
We were all sat in the boy's room chatting to each other when the radios David gave us pinged. I looked at the screen on it to see that Wash had activated his emergency beacon.
"SHIT!" I shouted and I looked up to see that everyone else had a shocked expression on their faces as well.
We picked up our weapons and put our helmets on and we ran to the Tech Labs where he was located.
When we got there we found Wash lying on the floor. I panicked and rushed over to him and Omega check his vitals. He was alive but losing a lot blood from a gash on the back of his head.
"North help me pick him up, the rest of you try and find who did this," I ordered.
North came over and we each took an arm and rapped it round our necks and we dragged him to the medical wing where the doctors took him into surgery, while the rest of the group fanned out in pairs except for Maine who could probably take them out on his own so he went alone.
A few minutes later David arrived with two men I don't know and the rest of my squad.
"What happened?" David asked.
"Don't know," I replied, "We got Wash's emergency beacon pinging up on our radios, so we rushed to his position and found him lying on the floor losing blood, so me and North rushed him here, while the rest of my squad searched for his attackers."
"Ok, Salazar, go help the other SEALs sweep the ship for the attackers and any explosives they planted. Harper I need you to go and check the cameras and see if you can find out who did this," David ordered.
Both men nodded and headed off to where they were needed.
About ten minutes later the man with the sticky out hair, the one called Harper, showed back up.
"I found out who attacked him," Harper said.
"Who?" I asked kind of eagerly.
"Two of 'The Elites' were on board the Obama," Harper replied.
"WHAT!?" I virtually screamed "HOW!?"
"Don't know," Harper replied calmly, "all I know is that it was Tech and Sniperz and while your buddy was radioing for assistance, Sniperz activated his camouflage unit and snuck up on your mate and wacked him on the back of the head with the butt of his sniper rifle."
"Do you know who let them on?" Salazar said suddenly appearing.
"No, they looped the cameras in the hangar," Harper started saying, "wouldn't have noticed it, if it hadn't been for the fact they looped the cameras just as two guards were leaving, meaning every five seconds the guards just magically appeared and headed off in the same direction each time."
"Well, Salazar did you find the intruders or any explosives they planted?" David asked him.
"No, looks like they left and didn't leave any nasty surprises for us to find," Salazar replied.
"Good work, I suggest you all get some sleep while I inform Admiral Briggs what happened," David stated.
Everyone started to head off to their rooms, except me. I decided to wait until the doctors come out of surgery and tell me whether or not he would be okay or not.
