Okay, the ball is really starting to roll with this story. Things are heating up and plans long since drawn are about to be realized. The end of the Area 11 arc is approaching and should arrive in about 4 or 5 more chapters. After that, we have another arc planned. The Federation arc.

Blaze1992: Oh yes, the climax of this part of the story is drawing near. The federation's attack itself will be an interesting chapter, which will affect the rest of the story afterwards but it won't happen till next chapter. This one will be shorter than most but that because I don't plan to show off much. Only the most mad of lads can attempt and succeed in controlling chaos….Lelouch is one of those lads but no, he had already accounted to it and will use it to his advantage in another way.

Vein Bloodborne: Well it was something that I had wanted to introduce for a while now, there was even a Star Wars x Code Geass crossover I read that was based post requiem. Long story short, the sith empire invades, Suzaku proves to be a terrible leader, the earth is conquered, somehow Darth Kreia, I think, brought back Lelouch from the dead and has taken him as her apprentice so that they may one day take on the Sith. One scene I found funny as heck was when C.C and Kreia talk like old friends. As for your suggestion, I've watched them along with most of Pandora, gotta say it was a good anime. Leon could be Lloyd's brother with how he acts.

x-x-TheBurnedMan-x-x: Not until the second story, they has more content about the galaxy as a whole. Though the Sakura will see action in this first story.

Tf330129: I will.

Xealchim: Hehehehehehe, the thought of reducing Pendragon and the surrounding area to a carbon copy of the surface and Mandalore is tempting…maybe.

Jetzer0: Not true. The mind trick just isn't effective against those who have trained for years to resist its effects and certain species like the huts, though cannon is inconsistent as in some cases, it can work on anyone so long as the user is strong willed and has a deep connection to the force.

With Geass, we only ever see it used on people, I once had a thought that could you use it on animals, like Lelouch could command dogs with just a look as dogs can understand human speech, how else would you train them? Once more, we never see anyone, even in the geass order they don't try to train to be resistant to geass, they just….go with it as we saw that both Euphemia and Nunnally resisted his absolute geass command to an extent before it took out, Nunnally broke her father's geass that left her blind….by using her determination to stop Lelouch along with her hatred for her him and what she thought he was planning to do….man, that one must have hurt when he put to two and two together-years of love, nothing-one mouth of hate-success. The point is, it's not impossible for someone to resist geass, if they trained and understood what geass was, they may very well achieve that.

Geer123: Who doesn't want to go to space? Thanks for the compliment, there's another one in this scene.

(Earlier)

"Troops, you've all been selected for this mission. Here is the briefing." Their commanding officer spoke to a room with 30. That same room was the mission briefing room on-board one the few Black Knights submarines operating in eastern Japanese waters. Thanks to cutting edge stealth tech and noise cancelling equipment built into the very structure of the vessel, they were as invisible to sonar as they were to the naked eye when submerged. Which they were, at a depth of about 85m.

"Yes sir!" Each and every trooper replied, having been chosen for their skills and experience, their fledgling Special Forces unit. Once they all sat down in their seats, he darkened the lights and showed them the first slide on the wall mounted screen.

"Factories….sir?" One the troopers in the front asked as she took in the images from both satellite and shots from ground level taken by scouts and spies.

"These productions sites supply the occupational government with VTOL and gunships parts. These plants alone are responsible for over half of their manufacturing capacity in Area 11." He relayed to them what they had found out about their target. "Your job is to destroy them."

"Yes sir, we'll get this done." Another trooper spoke up, sounding sure of himself. Confidence was a good trait, but arrogance was one he hated to see in a soldier, he hoped that this man was the former rather than the later.

"Remember that even though this isn't a military base, they will still be armed guards, maybe a knightmare or two. For reasons you all know, we can't just blow them up wholesale, but you will have assistance." He reminded them as the submarine was carrying missiles, weapons that they could even fire from depths as deep as 30m but then they would also be revealing that they can and could possibly do it again. They simply didn't have the numbers to contend with the navy actively searching for them. Not without screwing with the plan that command created and say what you want about Zero….

You never screw with his plans without good reason.

"Knightmares?" Another asked, only for their commander to shake his head no.

"A UAV, loaded with AGMs." He replied as he showed them the details of the UAV they would be loaded for this operation and from the stats, it was impressive. With a cruising speed of 215km/h and a combat altitude of 12,500m, the thing would be near undetectable by anything on the ground. The 15 AGM missiles were also a good plus.

"Eyes in the sky. Looks like we got it set." Another trooper joked, getting some laughs from a few others.

"You will be provided with a new type of explosives. One of which is this, a thermal detonator." The CO stated as he held up what looked to be a metallic looking cup….thing.

"Seems pretty small. Wouldn't plastic explosive work better?" One person asked, having been trained with plastic explosives of most types, they were expecting what they were used to.

"They look small, I admit but they have about the same explosive force as 8kg worth of C4." The officer informed them as he had seen first-hand how powerful these things were. They would prove quite useful now.

"Shit, that'll ruin someone's day." One muttered.

"You'll also be equipped with these, IHG-05 Incendiary Hand Grenades. They work like thermite so plant them in locations where they'll start really big fires." He went on as he held up what looked to be large spray bottles without nozzles and in their place, triggers.

"Let's hope we can find a fuel depot then."

"Or a motor bay." Another joined as they all darkly chuckled at the kind of destruction they would be leaving in their wake.

"Store it. You 30 have a mission, I expect success." The ranking officer cut them off before they could start discussing, leaving them only the option to shut up and salute like proper men and women in uniform.

"Yes sir!"

"Good, you deploy in 4 hours, I hope you all have gotten familiar with your jetpacks, because that's how you getting in, dropships will only fly in to pick you up." He told them as he left the room, so that the squad commanders could discuss the mission details with them, locating where they will drop in, where they can plant their explosives and where they can get the hell out of there once things are done.

(Then)

"Check you gear, we begin in 10." The trooper heard one of her fellow commandoes speak up she did final checks on all her weapons and gear. For combat gear, they weren't just equipped but were equipped with the latest that their R&D department cooked up, which meant that there were outfitted with full body gloves that were temperature regulating, comfy, form-fitting and grey and white in colour, to aid in blending into the snow and ice.

Over that they were ballistic plate looking armour that they were told could take up to 10 rounds from standard rifle before that piece of armour failed. They were all wearing armour protecting their shins, knees, thighs, groin, chest, shoulders and forearms. Like the body glove, they were also camo but with more white patches then grey, apparently to make it harder to distinguish them as a singular shape from afar in the same fashion that a zebra's stripes do. It also come with webbing so that each person can carry their own weight and gear, though, the guys meant to plant the bombs had to carry backpacks carrying 6 Demolition Thermal Detonators and 6 Incendiary Grenades each.

But what really impressed her was the helmet. It wasn't like anything she had ever seen. It resembled the full head helmets used by armoured knights and samurai of the past but was much more….comfortable to wear and quick to both remove and put on, the padding on the inside was major plus as now, blows to the head wouldn't hurt so much. The bowtie shaped visor offered great field of vison and was made from a tough, tilted bullet resistant transparent material so even if one of them were unlucky enough to get in the face, the bullet wouldn't get through. The tilted part gave the visor the same properties as one way glass, so you could see through it just fine but one couldn't see shit on the other side of it.

That wasn't even the best part. All of them were equipped with night-vision and binoculars built into the helmet, all one had to do was push a button and the secondary visor would fall over their regular one, allowing them to see with night-vison or spy on a person or object as far away as 3,500m. That combined with a built in radio for the squads to keep in contact with each and great sound pick-up for your surroundings, made this helmet her new best friend.

'Our first deployment with these things.' She thought to herself as she placed her combat/survival knife into her right thigh holster and then her silenced FN Five Seven onto the holster on her other leg. 'Let's see what they can do.' She finished the though as she picked up her silenced Vepr was loaded and ready before making sure she had the extra 6 clips of ammo for firmly holstered to her person. She would hate to have to bum off another one of her team.

"Remember, the snow will give us great cover but don't be an idiot." Her squad leader reminded them as he held his rifle over his shoulder. Like the rest of them, they were standing on top of the sub as it cruised towards their start point, far enough away not to be spotted but close enough so that their jetpacks can carry them the distance. That's right, they were equipped with jetpacks. Soon enough, they found themselves on the move, blasting off the sub and flying towards their location, making sure they stayed closed to the water and flew in from an area that didn't have a lot of people to see them coming.

(Now)

"That's our target." Her squad leader called out over the radio as they silently flew out of the fog and into the clearer view of the plant.

"It's bigger than a thought it'll be." One of her teammates mentioned as they saw that it wasn't just a couple buildings but more along the lines of dozen or so, spread out over a large area with some buildings being really big, like big enough to house a jumbo jet for maintenance big.

"What were you expecting, it's a production complex, meaning more than one building." She teased him as they all kept an eye out for anyone that could spot them, even with their camo and approach directions, they weren't taking chances. If they were seen, they were to either take them down or take them out before any kind of alarm could be raised.

"Shut up."

"Coming up on our first way point." One the forward troops spoke up, a sniper going by the fact he was carrying silenced accuracy International AWM. "No signs that they see us coming." He finished as he pulled out a thermal imaging scope and looked around for anything living, finding none.

"Good, let's try to keep it that way." The squad leader told them as they kept on flying for a couple minutes, going slower than normal to help keep the noise their jetpacks made to a minimum. Once they were within sight of commercial buildings close to the sight, they knew they had reached the first way-point.

"Alright, this is where we split. Gotta find good spots to watch from." One of the snipers called out as he along with a trooper parted ways from the group and made their way to the rooftop of one of the building due to the fact, like other pre-selected sites, it was a great place to be over-watch and assist their comrades on the ground. The trooper that went with them was just there to watch their backs.

"Copy." The squad leader said as they kept on going. As they flew around the base, keeping out of sight, more snipers left the group once they were close to their drop-points. Cutting their numbers down by 12. Once this was done, the remaining all bunched up into their infiltration teams.

"Alright, we spilt up here. Good luck." One of the other squad leaders stated before their team broke away from group and flew towards their entry point, the other two not far behind as they all were the only ones to stay on course.

"Same to you, try to get back alive." Another joked as they all went radio silent. They didn't stay airborne for long and soon they found themselves on the ground, using the early morning snow-fall and the shadows as cover as they slowly made their way through the empty industrial area towards their destination. They entered a small patch of trees and when they reached the end, they paused, as on the other side of the road, lay their entry point into the facilities. A chain-link fence with happened to be blind-spot between security cameras.

'Showtime.' She thought to herself as she calmed herself down before pressing a button on the side of her helmet, so they the binoculars slid in front of her visor, allowing her to scout ahead for anything out of the ordinary.

"SR6, you good?" One of her squad mates asked as they kept their weapons trained on the other side of the road while two others made sure no-one was coming up either way of the road.

"I'm good. Let's get this done." She replied before she slid the binoculars off her visor and looked towards her leader. "I'm not picking up any movement."

"I confirm. No-one's in our way." SR Leader/SR1 stated as he allowed his own visor to slide back up as well as he lead the way across the street. Once they all made it, SR6 along with another took out wire-cutters and went to work making a hole large enough for them to all go through.

"Copy, let's move." SR1, squad leader said as he lead them through the opening, with the last one through picking up the cut out metal mess and putting it back in place, using the snow to hold it up so that no-one would notice unless they looked closely.

"Clear. Move up." SR1 ordered as they all went along in a single file line, hugging the sides of buildings and avoiding open areas. More than once, they would smell the sight of cigarettes and cooked meals. Hinting that the guard they didn't see were inside, safe from the cold.

"Hold." SR1 held up his arm as they reached a corner, one that hide them from view behind a generator that just sat there, humming as it powered the building next to them. With another gesture, SR5 moved up and observed what SR1 was looking. "Patrol, to the right. Two guards, no visible rifles or shotguns." He let the rest of them know as they spied two men in uniforms guarding what looked to be entrance to a storage facility.

"Take them out or left them be?" SR5 asked, her sights already lined up with one of their heads.

"Let them be. SC1, they any more this side?" SR1 asked the sniper that was watching over them.

"None that I can see, but be careful." SC1 reported back as he used his scope to check the whole area and aside from those two, they weren't any visible guards he could make out.

"Roger, follow me, we're slip right passed them." SR1 told them as they went down a different path, one that like SC1 reported, had no guards or workers to see them. They then continued through the site, using the noise from the air conditioning units pumping in warm air into buildings and generators to mask themselves whenever someone was near. Like ghosts, they moved unseen or heard. This continued till they reached a small courtyard they had to cross to get to their destination. On one of the balcony's overseeing it was a nightshift workers, looking down at the place as he took a cigarette out of his pocket and tried to light it.

"Hold it, someone just got on the balcony for a smoke, get ready for the body." SC1 reported in as he honed in his scope, right at the man's neck, so that when it hit, he wouldn't be any to speak or call for help.

"Copy." SR1 radioed back and a few moments later, they saw the man get shot, he gasped for air as he tried to stem the bleeding from the gaping neck wound but soon fell over the edge, dead before he hit the snow.

"Moving." SR3 and herself said as they quickly crossed the distance and grabbed the body and started to drag it to a corner. "Quick, hide the body." She told her squad mate who nodded his head before they quickly covered up the body in snow before covering up their bloody trail with snow as well. Now on-one will find him till morning, if this place is still standing that is.

"SR leader, checking in. Status." SR1 called in as they all made their way out of the courtyard and further into the complex.

"SB leader, we're found a fuel depot, rigging the explosives to blow as we speak, over." One team reported in as their explosive ordnance specialist rigged two thermal detonators to a couple large fuel reserves. Sure they were mostly made from concreate but there were weaker, metallic parts that stuck out, like the hatch that is opened and closed whenever cleaning needed to be done. Which was serving them just fine as it meant that the charge could be placed on the inside of the lid, unseen and once it blew, force multiplication did the rest.

"SY leader, we've been delayed, knightpolice. Haven't been spotted as of yet, over." Another reported in as they hide behind a building from a group of knightpolice having a break. One of whom was still in the cockpit of his knightmare.

"SE leader, on route, about to enter a warehouse now, over." The third team reported as they reached a warehouse where they believed spare parts were stored. While all this was going on, SR team was still moving towards their own goal, reaching in less than a minute.

"Alright, this is the place." SR leader said as he opened the door into the repair workshop, what they found were a few workers but before they could even speak, all seven found themselves shot and killed. No distractions could be allowed. "Plant them." SR leader ordered as he lowered his weapon while the rest of the squad got to work. The EOS(explosive ordnance specialist) went about placing charges on vehicles, structural support pillars, half built gunships and even in other parts of the building, nothing was over-looked. Others made sure to keep their eyes and ears open, keeping watch in case more showed up. The last moved the bodies to a back-room that should survive the blast and consequential fires, at least then, the bodies would be in a condition where they can be identified.

"You guys better hurry up. Looks like they're looking for some of the people we dropped." SC1 informed them as he picked up increased movement at the location they shot someone, clearly they had noticed his disappearance.

"SB leader, we've planted our charges by the fuel depot, moving towards the secondary engine workshop." SB leader reported in as her unit made their way towards a workshop that intelligence said housed parts for Gunships engines and spare parts.

"SY leader, we managed to get passed the knightpolice, planting charges now." SY reported as they planted their charges on some power relays from the main lines coming into the place.

"SE leader, warehouse was a bust, I repeat. Warehouse was a bust, proceeding to motor pool to plant charges." SE called in as they moved towards the secondary target, having checked out the empty warehouse.

"SR leader, charges planted. Proceeding to power station now." Their own EOS had reported that he had placed the thermal detonators in place and set them all to his commander's remote switch.

"Be advised, I'm seeing a lot of activity in the power station. Recommend caution." SC1 radioed on as they used their thermal scope and could more than a few people inside, most likely workers on the night shift.

"I got some bad news. Incoming motorcade is heading towards main gate. Size is 5 vehicles. One limo and 4 escorts." SC2 reported in as SB unit paused around the building as they observed the headlights of incoming cars

"Anything else?" SR asked as they moved along to their next destination.

"Knightmares are escorting it, 2 knightpolice and 3 presumable privately owned and operated sunderlands." SC2 called in as the motorcade came closer to the facility before it was let in the front gate.

"Must be the plant owner." One of the members of the SB stated as they quietly observed as the vehicles drove off away from them. That was good, less chances to be seen.

"The hell is he doing back here so early in the morning?" One of the members of SR squad. It was nearly 3 in the goddamn morning for crying out loud.

"She, and I don't know. All teams be advised. Extra security is inbound. Stay out of sight." SR leader corrected as the plant owner was a women while also cutting the chatter as they kept on moving.

"Copy." Everyone on the line replied as it was silent for another few minutes. Along the way, SR squad had to take out another 4 people, one of which a plant worker who was in the wrong place at the wrong time and had seen them.

"Power station in sight. Any new updates?" SR leader asked their sniper support as they all hide behind a small shed.

"Activity still high. Wait," SC1 paused as he saw movement on the roof and when he zoomed in, he could clearly make out three distinct human figures. One further away from the other two. "I see three people on the roof, one's too close to the edge, they might see you."

"Can you take her out?" SR6 asked, not in a position to see the targets in question.

"Yes, but the other two might scream before I can shoot them. Should I take the shot?" SC1 asked as he aligned his sights onto the upper chest area of the furthest one, that way when he had to switch to the other two, it wouldn't be too hard.

"Do it." SR ordered as they then waited a moment, after that, they heard a faint scream before that too went dead.

"Was there a scream?" SC1 asked, reloading his sniper as he spoke. The spent clip falling into the snow.

"Not a loud one, but chances are someone is gonna go up there and find the bodies." SR leader replied as they moved up till they reach a service entrance.

"Meaning we need to move." SR4 spoke up as she took out some bolt cutters and cut through the padlock and chain keeping the door closed. Once that was done, they all entered the building, all while closing the door behind them and kicking the cut chain and lock aside and covering it with some snow for good measure.

"SE Leader, we have arrived at the motor pool, the motorcade has also arrived." SE reported as they reached a rather large area with over a dozen trucks. Trucks that would make excellent tinder for their bombs as they went about planting their remaining charges underneath as many of the vehicles as they could. While that happened, a portion of the team kept eyes on the plant owner's motorcade as it drove right on past them, not seeing them due to the lack of lights in the area.

"What's happening?" SR6 asked as her team navigated the building till they reached a staircase that took them to the 2nd floor.

"They are heading towards the main building. They didn't spot us." SE replied as they kept a careful eye of the knightmare escorts. They wouldn't have been an issue if they were equipped with rockets or missiles but they were deemed too heavy for this mission. Meaning that they would only win a fight with one if the pilot was really stupid or is they had the luck of the devil in spades.

"SB leader, we have arrived at the engine workshop, there was some people inside but we took care of them. Planting charges now." SB reported as the unit leader stood over the corpse of a guard and his dog. Around them were four others corpses, all of which didn't even have the chance to fire a single shot. At present, they were planting both thermal detonators and incendiary grenades on every large piece of equipment or half-finished engine block they could. They even found some gas canisters and added them to the mix.

Boom!

"What the hell?" SR6 asked as they all heard that feint explosion in the distance. Were one of the bombs found?

"What the hell was that? I didn't give the command to detonate yet." SR leader demanded as they all then picked up the sounds of a shoot-out on the other line.

"We're been spotted! Currently in a fire fight." SE leader reported in as they found themselves caught by a random group of guards, now the whole place knew they were here and chances are, were advancing on them.

"Is anyone near to them?" SR leader asked as they reached their own destination. The main control room for the plant. So as their unit and overall mission commander found out more, they set about placing their remaining charges.

"Negative. Fastest ETA, 3 minutes if they run into the guards." Command spoke up for the first time since the mission started.

"Intrude-pa!" One unfortunate worker got out before he was shot through the chest by SR6 for walking in on them, sadly, the damage was done.

"What was that?" They heard people outside asking before they made out the sounds of them bolting as they ran to the door and looked down the hallway, seeing on the foot of someone as they ran down a corner.

"Are they more? Call security. Alert the police!" They now all heard that one, they also heard the alarm for the place sounding.

"Shit, looks like we're fighting our way out." SR3 said as he checked his weapon before he got ready to defend the room, he may only be armed with a shotgun but in these close spaces, that was a boon.

"Now that the cat out of the bag remember, only shot those who can shot back, plant workers are now off limits." SR leader ordered them as now they didn't have to worry about not being seen.

"Roger." They all replied before their EOS told them he was done and that the bombs had been set, underneath the main control panel which he had covered by putting the panel back in place. "Alright people, get the hell outta the way! Move it!" SR leader told them as they made a tactical retreat back the way they came by around a corner, they found themselves spotted by a trio of armed guards.

"Terrorist!" One of them with an actually rifle yelled as he brought the thing to bar, forcing them to fall back lest get shot.

"Take them down!" Another commanded as the other two pulled out their pistols and opened fire.

"Not bad….or overpaid mall cops." SK6 mocked as she took a pot shot round the bend and was able to kill one right off the bat with a burst to the chest. Idiots weren't even taking cover, not that there was any in an open hall.

"Kinda feel bad for them." One of them said as this was turning out to be so easy.

"Don't. They knew what they were getting into." SR leader said as he pulled out a flashbang, pulled the pin and through it down the hall. The bang and confused, pained shouts telling them it worked as the unit commander turned around and finished off the two men on the floor. "Status." He requested as they made their way out of the building the same way they came.

"SE leader, knightpolice have found us! Requesting immediate air support." They heard SE call out, along with the sounds of large calibre weapons firing.

"SE leader, this is Shadow 1, air support aid in ready and waiting, can you paint the target?" The trooper in charge of their UAV requested as he altered the cruising course of the craft to better target the last known location of SE team.

"Roger." SE5 replied as she took out a laser pointer and aimed the bean towards the further knightmare bearing down on them.

"Target locked, firing." The UAV operator replied as he locked onto the target, released the safety, transferred camera feed to the missile before firing. Sending down a missile at nearly the speed of sound crashing down on his target.

BOOM!

Was the deafening sound of the impact made by the missile striking close to home as it may have missed the knightmare by a few cm but it was still close enough that the blast tore its legs to pieces and damaged the cockpit block.

"Get down!" One person yelled as they tackled their boss to the ground just in time to avoid being shot.

"Thanks." SR leader said as he along with SR2 quickly got back up and continued the fight.

"Go to sleep, little man." SR6 said as she found the shooter and put one between his eyes.

"Knightmare!" Someone called out just as one appeared.

"Get to the roof!" Another yelled as they all bolted, taking to the skies with their jetpacks before landing on the roof. Giving themselves some breathing space.

"Shadow 1, this is SR leader, requesting air support. Painting target." SR leader relayed as he pointed his own laser designator towards the glasgow trying to shoot apart the roof to get to them while the rest of his men fired on the infantry.

"SR leader, this is Shadow 1. Target locked and firing." The UAV operator replied as the net missile was made ready and fired. This time striking one knightmare head on and blowing it to hell. Seeing an opening, they took it, flying off towards the exfil location.

"Heads up, I've spotted police reinforcement on the way, ETA 50 seconds." Shadow 1 informed them as he spotted some police and military vehicles making their way over.

"Shit, what are their numbers?" SR leader asked as they landed some distance from the power-plant and opted to run the remainder of the distance.

"5 knightpolice units and 6 police cruisers." Shadow 1 replied just as SR5 shot some guy who tried to get the jump of them.

"Alright people, head to your emergency exfil locations. We don't need to stick around." SR leader ordered everyone as all around, they could make out the sounds of gunfire and missile strikes from above.

"Roge-Shit! I'm hit, I'm hit." SB leader cursed over the line.

"All squads, this is SB2, taking command of SB." SB2 stated as they could make out someone dragging SB leader to his feet.

"Is your commander alright?" SR6 asked as they kept up the pace, never slowing down even if they had to not properly aim at their targets. They just needed them to keep their heads down long enough for them to pass by them.

"She took one to the arm, it's appears to be a flesh wound. Making our way to the exfil site now." SB3 reported as he looked over the bullet wound to the unit commander's bicep. Leaving him only able to fire with the side arm accurately. At that same moment, a member of SR got hit in the chest with two shots from a rifle and fell to their back, but found that it didn't hurt nearly as much as they thought it would as they was able to get back up pretty easily. When they spared a glance down to the armour, they saw dents but nothing else.

"Thank god this stuff is tough." The squad member laughed it off as they got back to shooting anything shooting at him.

"Don't let it go to your head, first rule of combat is not to get hit." SR leader warned them as he reloaded his rifle.

"Don't have to tell me twice." The squad member muttered over the line as they pick out a flash grenade the tossed it, blinding the remaining foes for them to blast them apart as they ran. As they reached a small road, they all heard the familiar sound of a motor vehicle heading right for them.

"You hear that?" Someone asked as they turned and saw a police car heading right for them.

"Yup, I got a nice surprise waiting for them." SR6 said as she pulled out a frag and pulled the pin and counted before tossing in right into the middle of the road.

"Police." Another said as they prepared to take cover.

"Was." SR6 said just as the car drove over the grenade they never saw, just as that same grenade blew up.

BOOM!

"Shouldn't have come up in a car." SR6 said as they all kept moving, leaving the burning wreckage behind as they kept the pace, soon reaching their destination. An old warehouse on the edge of the sight with fire escape stairs on the side that lead to the roof.

"Alright, up those stairs people, move it!" SR leader told them as they all went up the stairs

"You know, if we were anyone, we would have just purposely ran into a corner." One of them joked as they went up the stairs.

"Good thing we're not." Someone replied as they reach the roof of the building before taking positions to guard it should the need arise.

"All teams, report." SR leader ordered as they surveyed the site from their position and even with the lack of light and snowfall, they could still make out some fires.

"This is SB2, at exfil point."

"This is SE leader, we're reached exfil point."

"This is SR leader, we are at the point." Their own commander relayed.

This is SY leader, at the exfil."

"So what now?" SR6 asked as she looked at their CO as he pulled the trigger that all their 'presents' were connected to.

"Now," SR leader said just before he pushed the button. "We let the fireworks distract them as we make our escape." He finished as he brought his thumb down.

BO-BOO-OM-B-BOOM!

"Now that, was an explosion." One of them said aloud as they all watched as each and every site was blown to bits. From the workshops to the fuel depot, everyone was reduced to burning rumble. They could also assume that more than a few people were caught in each blast as with the power station, it started a chain event of the whole place going dark due to the electrical overload knocking out the generators. But they didn't stick around long as they used the distraction the blasts gave them and flew off to sea, to meet up with their sub and get the hell outta there.

I was so tired at the end there that I almost gave up and removed a whole section. Man, I've been exhausted lately. Anyway, hope you enjoyed that little work. I'll try and write something longer next chapter but until them.
