Only minutes later and the group exfil to a safehouse, wishing to confront Jonathan once and for all. They spent abut a week in combat training be it firearms or hand-to-hand combat, as well as tracking his possible location. After a week...

"Sir, we have a possible fix on Kraskell. He's in a motel inn in the Nevada Desert."

"You sure?" Mike asked, wanting an exact fix.

"Yes sir."

"Roger that."

He gathered the group around. "Alright, ladies and gents, listen up. We just got a possible fix on Jonathan's location at a motel in the Nevada Desert. I can't guarantee your saftey, so if any of you wanna back out, I won't hold a grudge; you may do so."

"You can count on us; we want him dead as well," Tommy piped in. "Our parents and kids can stay here."

"Kira, Drew and I are joining too you know," Charlotte said. "And I'm with Tommy aout letting the kids stay with the other parents."

"Then it's settled; wheels up in 30 minutes. Gear up. Move!" Mike ordered.

And with that, they geared up on weapons and armor. Needless to say, Angelica and Chuck are the least geared in terms of armor, with Chuckie carrying a crossbow while Angelica equipping a Kriss Vector.

"What's with the lack of armor, you two?" Mike asked, cocking an FN SCAR-H.

"We're more into mobility," Chuckie told them.

"Yeah, all we need are light weapons and extra ammo," Angie added. The others agreed as they knew they both were more focused on movement.

"Just don't get yourselves killed," Lil advised the pair, and they both nodded.


After a lengthy 25 minutes, the Rugrats group, along with several of Mike's tactical commando were closing in on the target area via helicopter.

"I have visual on the motel. Time to target, 60 seconds."

"Copy," Mike aknowleged. "Alright everyone, listen up. In the last 24, intel indicated a fix on Kraskell's position. Local athourites will set up a perimeter to prevent any of his lackies escaping. We roll this bastard up dead or alive."

"I'm gonna go with killing him; taking him alive didn't work out the first time," Chuck replied.

"Heh, no kidding," Phil added.

Just then they all landed at the LZ, getting ready.

"This is it, unass and move to set. You see hostile contact, you are clear to engage." Mike ordered.

At this, they pushed through Jonathan's lackies, killing them. But the henchen have the high ground advantage and automatic weapons, so it wasn't easy for the gang to take them out. Luckily a sniper team from a distance was able to pick off most of the gunmen with the assist of Chuck's crossbow shots. Shortly after, they all got into breach position outside Jonathan's room.

"Remember, he's to be taken alive if possible," Mike reminded them, and they all nodded.

With that, Phil and Kimi breached the room, killing the bodyguards protecting Jonathan and Phil meleed him.

"Come here, asshole," he said, punching Jonathan's face and dragging him out of the bathroom. "Give me a reason to pull your head off, c'mon..."

Kraskell just smirked at this. "You really impress me guys, especially you, Purnomo. You're still that same spec ops soldier after all these years." At this he suddenly pulls out a sidearm and grazed Mike in the chest, but at the same time Charlotte severly wounded him.

"Just... put... me out of... my misery..." He tried to shoot another bullet, but Charlotte finished him this time.

"Shit man. The dude's got some issues," Phil commented.

"Just glad it's over," Brianna added. "He saw it coming anyways."

"Yeah, he did..." Mike replied. Then he radioed, "Command, this is Disciple 4-1. Kraskell is dead. Archangel 2-1 ,bring in the helicopter for exfil."

"Solid copy, Disciple 4-1. Local authorities along with Anaconda 5 are at the perimeter to prevent any of Jonathan's goons leaving the area." Command replied.

As the group exited the motel, Anaconda 5 moved in to arrest any of the surrendering goons, and the gang exfiled via helicopter.


During the ride home...

"Man, who would've thought Jonathan would become a dangerous criminal?" Susie asked them, and they all shrugged.

"Hey, what's important is that he's KIA and we're all in one piece." Mike answered, examining his wound.

"Looks like it's a minor," Kimi said, extracting the bullet from the wound. "There, that should do it... but you still need medical attention."

"Heh, no shit. They don't call me the 'ghost' for nothing. I'm not easy to kill."

"Yeah, but if it was a headshot..." Tommy cringed.

"Just glad that we took Jonathan down and my dad's alright," Angelica chimed in, embracing her father and he hugged back along with Charlotte.


They returned to base only to unite with their parents and children.

"I'm so glad my brave boys are home in one piece," Didi said, embracing her kids.

"Heh, we're all in one piece, Mom," Tommy said as he and Dil hugged back.

"We took good care of your kids," Dr. Carmichael told the gang, as Louise ran towards Tommy and Lil, as with Charlie towards Chuck and Angelica.

"Thank you," Chuckie told her. She just smiled.

They all enjoyed themselves in the reunion until they went back to their respective homes.


Epilogue

Several weeks later, Mike, Brianna, Angelica, Chuckie, Kira, Charlotte and Drew were in the middle of their boxing training.

"Come on, Mike. You still can't beat me?" Chuckie teased after defeating him once again.

"Bloody hell, Finster."

"I didn't hit you that hard, did I?"

"You're the fucking Hulk, mate."

Suddenly two male federal agents waked in the gym, looking for the former spec ops soldier.

"Mike Purnomo?"

"All day."

"Nice work on Kraskell."

"Thank the team operating with me; they're the ones who got it done. I'm just one small link in a chain."

"Yes, I can see that, but we got a big fish to fry."

Mike thought about it for a second and answered he wasn't interested until something got his attention when they showed him the file, which was revealed to be Coco LaBouche.

"You still believe in ghosts?" One agent said.

The other six approached the trio, curious to find out what was going on, got the same reaction as Mike.

"It can't be..." Angelica staggered.

"How is this possible?" Charlotte wondered.

"What are we gonna do?" Brianna asked Mike.

"Gear up on equipment; let's operate." Mike told them with a serious face, and they all nodded.
