Ch 10

A/N: hey sorry it took so long to get this chapter out. exams were a b**ch. lol heres the next chapter hope you like it!

Sam was woken from her drunken slumber by a knock on her door. As she
slowly got up from the couch Sam clenched her head in pain. Each knock
felt like a stake being driven into her skull. Groggy and tired she
shuffled over to the door

"just a minute..."

When she reached the door Sam cracked open the door and look outside.

Outside were two men almost equal in height. After Sam's vision cleared
she saw that the two men outside her door were none other than
Nickolie and Jack.

"Sam come with us. Where going to talk to the general..."

Sam looked at them funny and said "what for?"

"No time to explain. We need to go now."

Sam simply shrugged and went back inside to get her shoes and some
Advil. A minute later she returned to the door and walked out into the
hallway.

"Alright let's go..."

Sam, Jack and Nickolie made their way through a maze of hallways
inside the base. As they walked Sam looked up at Nickolie and inquired
about where they were going.

"so why are we going to the generals office Nickolie?"

Nickolie continued to look forward as they walked down the hallway.

Jack decided to answer her question. "We just got word that our pay
from that last mission... We're not getting it. Nickolie's a little
pissed about it because he knows the chap..."

"What? Why would they go back on their word?"

Jack was about to answer her question but Nickolie chose to answer
this one. "That's what we're going to find out Sam..."

All that she could think of to say was "oh". The look in his eye was
full of anger and betrayal. She decided to hold off her questions until
a later time.

As they rounded another corner Sam turned to find herself face to
face with a Russian officer. Within a second both Sam and the Russian
had collided heads and fell to the floor.

Nickolie completely ignored the incident and continued walking leaving
jack deciding whether to help Sam up or follow Nickolie. He looked
back at Nickolie, then back to Sam wondering what to do. He finally
turned back to Nickolie and followed him down the hallway.

Sam was just getting up when a hand reached down for her. She looked
up to see the Russian holding out his hand saying something in Russian.

"Um... I'm sorry. I didn't understand you... I don't speak Russian
well..."

The officer looked at her funny but then his face turned to a smile..

"My apologies miss. I was in a hurry. Wait... By any chance would you
be a part of that mercenary group?!?" he asked in a heavy Russian accent.

"Um... Yes I am... But wh-"

"you must leave immediately! You're wanted dead by the general! Quickly we
must get you out of here!"

He quickly picked her off the ground and asked her "where is the rest
of your team?!"

It took Sam a few seconds to comprehend what he said but then she
replied.

"their just down the hall. They said they were going to see the
gen-... Oh no!" Sam immediately started to run down the hallway to the
generals office.

The Russian officer quickly followed her down the hall saying "Miss
wait!!"

When Sam reached the generals office she busted in through the door.

Her face turned grim when she saw the general holding a gun in his
hand pointed at Nickolie and Jack...

"Ah. And here is the third... Thank you for finally joining us Ms.
Samantha..."

Sam could only raise here hands like Nickolie and Jack staring at the
9mm pointing at them. The general then began to laugh in a deep, low,
sinister voice.

Nickolie then lowered his hands and asked "what is it you want with us?"

The general continued laughing before pausing to answer. "What is it I
want? Ha! I want nothing out of you! Your just one less problem I'm
about to deal with..."

Just as the general was saying this the Russian officer that was
chasing Sam entered the room. The general looked over to him and said
"ah Alexander... Great timing my friend. You made it just in time.
Please close the door for me would you?"

Sam looked back at him with worried look. As Alexander looked over to
her they locked eyes. Sam swore she saw him wink at her and look back
at the door. She then realized that what he was trying to tell her...
He was going to get them out of here... She didn't quite know how
but... She knew that he was...

Sam then looked over to Nickolie and Jack. When each of their eyes met
she widened her eyes then glanced back over to the door.

Trying not to get the generals attention they both slightly nodded
their heads in agreement.

"I don't have all day Lt Col.!"

"Yes sir."

Alexander turned slowly to the door and walked toward it. As his hand
neared the door handle the general's evil grin grew bigger and more
sinister. But at the last moment Alexander's hand jumped to the light
switch to the left of the door.

In one quick motion Alexander flipped the lights off making the room
instantly pitch black.

The general's eyes widened and his mouth hung open. In a flash everyone
was sprinting out the door. As soon as the general realized what was
happening he began to roar in anger, firing his pistol madly.

Sam's adrenalin filled her veins as she ran out the door. As she exited
the office she looked down the hall to see Alexander waving his hands
yelling "come on! Follow me!" Sam acknowledged the Russian officers
command by running in his direction closely followed by Nickolie and
Jack.

Sam, Alexander, Nickolie, and jack sprinted through the main building
and out the front doors. As they reached the entrance to the hanger
just a few yards outside the main building complex Alexander stopped
and waited for everyone else to catch up.

Every single person in the group was painting heavily trying to catch
their breath after the long run. Suddenly a Russian voice was heard
over the base intercom. The man on the intercom was instructing all
available forces to head for the hanger and arrest the four escaping
prisoners.

Alexander looked back at the group and said between breaths "is... Is
everyone alright?"

"Were good here... I... I think..." said Nickolie as he looked back at
Jack and Sam.

Jack simply put a thumbs up as he remained bent over out of breath.
But when Nickolie looked at Sam his eyes shot open...

"I... I... No..."

Clutching her side with bloody hands Sam barely was able to say a few
words before collapsing into Nickolie's arms.

She had been shot... Nickolie was amazed that her adrenalin carried
her this far.

"Alex! Help me get her inside!"

Alexander ran over to her side and helped her up. They both carried
Sam in through a small entrance in the hanger doors. As Jack was
closing the small door he stopped as the faint sound of vehicles was
heard in the distance.

Jack looked back to see a convoy of trucks and Russian troop
transports pull up around the hanger. Russian troops then began to
poor out of the transports, taking position around the closed hanger
doors.

When jack entered the hanger he found Alexander and Nickolie tending
to Sam's wounds on a table.

"I don't know... These bandages will hold... But... If she doesn't get
medical attention soon then she may not make it..."

Nickolie covered his face with one hand in frustration. He then looked
up at Jack and said "jack. Prep the fighters for launch..."

He looked back over to Alexander and said "you take Sam's F-16... I'll
take Sam with me... She can sit in the cockpit with me..."

Alexander nodded his head and ran over to help Jack prep the jets for
takeoff...

Outside the hanger Russian troops had the building surrounded. As they
waited for the order to move in the general took a loudspeaker and
picked up the mic. "Give up Mercenaries. We have the building
surrounded."

He then looked over the platoon commander of the Russian troops
and said "prepare to fire"

Back inside the hanger Jack was helping Sam into the SU-37 with
Nickolie. As soon as they were strapped in he jumped down from the
cockpit and ran to his Typhoon.

When both Alexander and Jack were ready to go he gave the signal to
start up their engines. The deep whine of the jets slowly rose higher
each second went by.

Back outside the general cursed when he heard the sound of jet engines
starting up. He looked over to the platoon commander and said "tell
your men to fire four rounds each at the hanger doors!" The commander
then started to shout out orders to his troops to do as the general
instructed...

"Fire!!"

The sound of AK-47s and machineguns was heard over a short period of
time as each soldier fired off four rounds each. When the firing
stopped the general grabbed the mic again.

"That was just a warning shot! Give up now! You have nowhere to go!"

Nickolie cursed to himself as he looked at the many bullet holes in
the hanger doors. He looked down at his weapons display just to the
right of his radar looking for a way to take down the door. He had
half a strip of machine gun ammo, two sidewinders, one QAMM, and one...

A smile creep from Nickolie's face has he looked at the weapons
display. Nickolie began flipping switches on his consol arming the
weapon that was about to salve all of his problems...

His computer then spoke out loud confirming the order...

"Arming fuel air explosive missile."

"I'll show you a warning shot..." Nickolie said as he placed his
finger on the trigger...

Outside the hanger the Russian troops were slowly moving in to breach
the front hanger door. The troopers stacked up on the door waiting for
the command to breach.

The commander then signaled the team to begin over the radio. Each
soldier in back of the line patted the soldier in front of them
signaling they were ready. When it reached the two men in front the
point man reached for the door handle and twisted it.

Just as the soldier opened the door... the entire hanger door exploded
into a gigantic flaming explosion. Bodies of the breach team were
instantly vaporized as the shock wave sent some of the troop
transports flying through the air. The general was knocked off his
truck and sent backwards a few feet.

When the dust settled almost everything that was near the door was
blown back a few feet. The general's ears began to ring as he slowly
tried to get up. When he got to his knees the man looked up in horror
at the destruction in front of him. Cries of pain were heard from the
surviving Russian soldiers scattered across the ground. A huge hole
now took the place of what used to be the hanger door.

But emerging through the hole and smoke filled air was none other than
the three mercenary planes. The general cursed in Russian at the sight
before him. He could only watch as the three planes taxied to the
runway and took off into the setting sun.

As the three planes formed up into formation Alexander spoke over the
radio. "Now where do we go?"

"I know of a privet airbase that works with Blackwater... We can head
there..."

"where is that?" Jack asked.

"Rustavi... Make a turn right 60 degrees. We should get there before
dark... Let's maintain radio silence so we don't attract any
Russians..."

Nickolie then flipped off his radio and banked right with the other
two fighter planes. When he leveled out Nickolie turned on the auto
pilot.

He looked down at Sam's unconscious body, slowly stroking her hair.

"Hang on Sam..."
