I'm back for another chapter of this story. Sorry for the wait. Was working on two other chapters and somethings at home as well. Well here I go once again with this chapter. Wish me luck I hope this part comes out good.

June 7, 11:15 hrs

S.A.S Training Grounds, United Kingdom

With 72 hours left, all of the Ghost's operatives were now training very hard so they can be ready for what they have upcoming in a couple of weeks. They all have gotten more experience from what the S.A.S taught them. With their new skills they will use it against the militia once they are deployed. Humphrey was ready as well but he, Ghost and a few others would go to Yemen first to see about the supply arms that they had with possible Russian contacts with them.

This was going to be tough for them and because they needed to be ready for what dangers the enemy could have set up for them once they are deployed in two weeks. They all had a lot on their minds but were not worried about it. They just needed to finish up and prep up their uniforms tomorrow before their completion of training.

Ghost was watching some of his members continue to push very hard to be at their best. He was already impressed for what they have accomplished so far.

Humphrey along with four other operatives were finishing up a training course. They were on their way back to the warehouse to catch their breaths, Ghost saw them heading for the warehouse and continued to look at his members that were still finishing up their training before they get to to have their break for lunch. Ghost got another report by an S.A.S soldier and it confirmed of Russian involvement with the militia at the arms supply in Yemen but also Russian Spec. Ops. in Azerbaijan which Ghost believed that they could have some key intel that they were looking for and it might have something to do with the arms supply in Yemen. He also got images of where the arms supply location is in Yemen.

Until they go to Yemen and find the place, they first have to be prepared for it. It won't be an easy task and Humphrey feels that as well. He knows that the mission that they are expected to roadblocks that the enemy will put on them. They will help end the war against the militia once in for all once they are deployed into battle. Ghost headed for the warehouse and he needed to get his selection of his squad that were going with him to Yemen in two weeks.

He needed some of his best men to go with him and it wasn't an easy selection at all and it'll take some time for him to know who will go with him. He continued to think about his choices and it was still hard for him. An S.A.S Soldier came in and handed him his lunch, Ghost thanked him and continued to look through the papers.

35 minutes later

Ghost finally had his selection of his squad and it was going to be a ten man team. He needed Humphrey and Micheal for this mission and it will be important that they both be ready for what will come. He had the map of the terrain that they were going to be dropped off and their was a city near the target area, plus perfect spots that some of his men could use for overwatch of the area.

He needed to get his men that he selected and let them know what their objectives are and who will watch the perimeter. He contacted Humphrey, Michael and the other seven operatives that are going with him. Humphrey, Micheal and the other seven operatives came into the warehouse where Ghost was and they sat down on chairs that were there for them and Ghost started to explain to them what their objectives were and what could happen.

90 minutes later

After the explanation the squad was looking at the map, the intel, and the images of what they could expect once they are at the target building. The squad continued to look at the intel and stuff, Humphrey knew that it was more likely to breach and clear the target building and destroy the supplies that the enemy has so far. Once then they should be able to head off to Afghanistan afterwards. Plans were now being set and strategies were being spoken out. Ghost assigned two of his squad members to provide overwatch of the area and give them alerts if their are any on coming hostiles that are on their way to get more supplies to give to the enemy.

Plans were set and all they needed to do is finish their training first and be prepared for what comes next after they all return home. They were dismissed and Humphrey returned to the other warehouse and got his gear prepped up for another upcoming training that wasn't far behind him. With less then 72 hours left. He must give this everything he's got to be at his best.

3 days later

June 10, 13:00 hrs

All of Ghost's men were now finished with their training and it was time for them to return home. The S.A.S were doing their ceremony for them to honor all of the Operatives that were trained on their training grounds. It's been a long year for them and they can rest up before being deployed in the East to assist their allied troops that are fighting.

45 minutes later the ceremony was finished and Roach and the others saluted to the S.A.S soldiers and they saluted back to them. The operatives all headed to the warehouse and got their stuff and headed to the trucks and boarded them. They were on their way to the airfield for the ride back home.

June 11, 00:45 hrs

Jasper, Canada

Airfield

The plane landed and all of the operatives got out with their things and headed to their vehicles and left the place but they knew that they would have to return soon since they were going to be deployed to help out in the east in less then two weeks. Humphrey had to be ready for his assignment which to him will be his first tough assignment once he's in Yemen with the squad. Humphrey first wanted to see his mate after being gone for some time and he also wanted to see his older brother as well. He need to let them know what was going to happen very soon, for meeting his brother could wait until the morning he needed to return home. He went to warehouse where his car was and got his stuff in and went in. He then drove out of the airfield to his home.

60 minutes later

Humphrey arrived at his house and saw that the lights were off and that Kate must be asleep at the moment. He wanted to surprise her since he's been gone for some time. He parked his car outside of the garage and got his stuff and got out. He unlocked the front door and went inside and locked the door behind him. Humphrey went to the room where he shares with Kate and saw that she was asleep still and she hasn't noticed that he's their right now. He placed his things in the closet and changed out of his uniform into a white shirt and tan shorts to sleep for tonight. He walked to Kate's side and gently kissed her on the cheek. She stirred and opened her eyes and looked to see who it was. She then jumped back in shock and saw that it was Humphrey and spoke. "Humphrey?" He nodded and responded. "It's me. Sorry did I scare you?" Kate was looking at him and smiled. She then spoke. "Yeah you did, but at least it's you. It's great to have you back my love." Humphrey smiled and the two embraced each other.

It's been a long time for them since they were together but at least for now they can be with one another. Humphrey lied down on the bed and Kate cuddled up with him and the two entered a wonder night sleep.

One week later

June 18, 08:00 hrs

Downtown Diner

Humphrey along with Ghost, Michael, and the seven other operatives were at a diner eating breakfast and talking about their mission that they were doing a week from now and it's been in their heads for good amount of time. They did talk to one another about other things but knew that they had to be ready for what's coming to them very soon.

Humphrey already has spent most of his time with his mate, his friends, and his brother. He did meet Kate's family again but as of yesterday Winston was gone. He didn't know what happen to him but Kate knows, and so does her mom and sister.

It hasn't been the same for Humphrey since he finished his training, but he knows that it's going to be like this for a very long time. For him being in the military can change a someone around and he knows the risks and knows about PTSD. Humphrey knows that his father went through it before and he learned that he has to just live with it no matter what.

Another 20 minutes later the group finished their meals and Ghost paid for all of it and they all left the place. They know Humphrey needed to see his parents graves again so they all headed for the cemetery to support him.

Memorial Cemetery

08:50 hrs

Humphrey was at the tomb stones of both his parents and he was sitting down near both of them. Humphrey was looking at the tombstone names and didn't say anything at all. In his mind he was talking to them.

Half an hour later

Humphrey got up and placed flowers on both tombstones that he got for his parents. He has made them both proud and has overcome tough obstacles so far but more tougher ones were on approach. Their war was about to begin.

A week later

June 24, 17:29 hrs

Humphrey was getting his stuff ready and his gear. Kate was watching him and she was sad but knows that he'll return home soon. It was now time for him and the others to be deployed out to battle. Humphrey saw that his transport was waiting for him. He got his stuff and headed to the front door, Kate followed him and the two embraced one another, it was tough on both of them to be apart again, but Humphrey had a job to do and the sooner it's done the sooner he can return home as soon they are done. They said their goodbyes and Humphrey went out to his transportation meeting up with some of the operatives.

The transport left the area heading to the airfield.

June 25, 09:00hrs

HQ, Yemen

Ghost called in the team since the Yemen army is going to provide assistance by locking down the perimeter for them. Ghost and his squad were all in sand digital combat uniform, and sand tactical boots. They were all preparing their weapons and getting their gear ready for this mission. Ghost, Humphrey and the other seven operatines will strike the building while Michael and the other two provided overwatch for them. Ghost, Humphrey and the seven operatives were all armed with the M4A1 Holographic. Secondary is the M9. Michael and the other two operatives were armed with MK11 MOD 0 with a 5x Scope, plus the M16A3 ACOG Sight. Secondary the M9. They all got their comms on and turned them on.

A transport truck was waiting for the team it was time to get going. They all got their body armor on and the rest of their gear and headed out of the Headquarters and boarded the truck. They all had sand digital boonie hats on. Other trucks were in the area ready to go since some of the Yemen forces that were going to lock down the target building's perimeter.

As the rest of the Yemen forces got in their vehicles. The trucks left the HQ heading for the target building that Ghost's team were going to take care of.

09:35 hrs

Ghost and his squad were behind a wall looking at the target building. Michael and the other two operatives were on different roof tops checking around the target buildings perimeter. The Yemen Forces had the rest of the outer perimeter locked down while Ghost and his squad moved up to the target building. Overlord was watching this from their Cameras that were recording this stuff. The target building is confirmed a warehouse. Ghost and the others moved up to the target building and reached one of the doors. It was a steel door that can be breached by a kicker charge. Ghost moved to the left side of the door while Humphrey moved to the right side of the door. Humphrey placed the kicker charge on while Ghost placed two additional charges on the left and right side of the kicker charge. He pulled out the detonator and set off the charges. The charges breached the door and Humphrey moved in.

Their were hostiles in the main room and Humphrey engaged them. The main room was now cleared and the rest of the squad moved in. Ghost told his men to keep their rifles on single shots, better to save ammo then go all out.

Yemen HQ contacted them and told them that they by passed enemy comms and Ghost's team connected through and heard the enemies conversations. Ghost was able to pick up Russian through the communication and was able to translate what they were saying since he's studied Russian when he was young. Ghost contacted Overlord. "Overlord, you getting this?" Overlord responded. "Roger Alpha were getting this, you know what they are planning." Ghost responded. "Solid copy. Squad let's go, their expecting us when we hit the upper floors."

They moved up to the stairs to the second floor and spotted about 5 rooms that needed to be clear. Overlord came up. "Alpha team be advised the Raven drone that you requested is over your perimeter." Ghost spoke and contacted Michael. "Solid copy. Archer you got it?" Michael pulled out a small screen control and responded. "Roger that sir. Ah got postive control of tha Raven Drone. Tha outside is still clear but ya could expect more hostiles soon." Ghost spoke. "Solid copy. Squad let's pick up the pace." Ghost's team moved up. Ghost and Humphrey took the first door. Two operatives took the second and the other three took the third door. Ghost placed his hand on the knob of the door and slowly turned it. He opened the door slowly and Humphrey covered him. The room was cleared but they check the room out and found nothing.

The rest of the team had their rooms cleared as well with no contacts in the other two rooms but important documents that were found in the second room. The team moved up to the last two rooms and it was likely that hostiles were in those two rooms. Ghost told the squad to get the frame charges ready and place them on the doors to breach. Ghost would take the left door while the others took the right one. They placed the frame charge on the doors and moved back. The charges breached the doors open and the team moved into the rooms taking out hostiles that were in the two rooms.

Both rooms were now clear and it was confirmed that the hostiles that they took out were Russians. The team found key intel that needed to be returned but the Raven drone found something and Michael alerted Ghost. "F***. Sir Ah picked up contacts an' armor headin yer way an' it's more Russians. 60 plus fooot moblies heading yer way. Armored tanks possible T-90 tanks enroute as well. Hurry an' clear tha basement that's got ta be where tha weapons cache is." Ghost signaled the squad and they moved back to down to the first floor and Ghost found the basement door and opened it. Their were no contacts going down the stair or at the weapons cache. However their were RPGs and Ghost knew that they could use the RPGs on the Tanks to by them some time to get out and head for the RV Ghost contacted the Yemen forces and ordered them to pull out because armored tanks were on route and they were no match for them. Yemen forces did what they were told and pulled out of the perimeter. The two other operatives were alerted as well that were on overwatch and they were notified on where the enemy was coming and they needed to worry about the T-90s the most.

Ghost told his men to take three RPGs and as much of the ammo for it since they are likely to encounter the tanks when they leave. Four of the operatives took the RPGs and the amor for it while the rest were setting C4 charges on the weapons and ammo. The two operatives pulled out of their positions since the hostiles were not far away from their positions and they were going to join up with Michael.

Ghost's team finished placing the charges on the weapons and ammo, they had the RPGs and the ammo for it. The team went back up the stairs to the first floor and gathered the RPGs and the RPG shells. They headed out and saw the Tanks that were coming in from the North and they were coming in very fast. The team moved up and got behind cover and waited for their opportunity to catch the T-90s by surprise. The RPGs were not accurate but they needed to get these shots right. The first tank was very close and Ghost had and RPG ready to go and he stuck out and aimed at the tank. The Tank stopped and saw what he had and started to go in reverse but was too late. Ghost fired the RPG and hit it destroying the first T-90. Michael alerted that their were 3 more coming it and the second tank came up and Humphrey had his shot ready to go. Ghost returned to his position and load another shell. Humphrey got ready to surprise the second tank as it was closing in on their position. He moved from cover and aimed at the tank and fired. The tank didn't see him or the RPG and it was destroyed as well, the two destroyed tanks were now blocking the Russians path to get to the warehouse. Ghost told the squad to pull back and head for the RV point and he notified Michael and the other two operatives as well. He pulled out the detonator and set of the charges destroying the warehouse.

20 minutes later

The team was at the RV point waiting for extraction. Overlord contacted Ghost. "Alpha be advised I got a new task for you." Ghost spoke. "Send it Overlord." Overlord spoke. "The intel that you got needs to be sent to the USS Detroit that is about 150 miles in the Arabian Sea and you and one other of your men is going to assist a couple of Marines that will be sent by the Captain of the ship to get intel in Baku. Another chopper is on route to take you to the USS Detroit. Get the intel to Detroit and join up with those Marines. Overlord out." Ghost told his team to give him the intel and told Humphrey that he was going to join him on this mission that they've been reassigned to do.

Two choppers arrived a couple of minutes later and they both land. Michael and the others boarded the first one which would take them to Afghanistan were the rest their bothers in arms were waiting for them while Ghost and Humphrey got in the second chopper that would take them to the USS Detroit. They didn't know what they could expect for their task in hand. The first chopper headed off to it's destination while the other headed for the Arabian Sea. Things were now going to be tougher for Humphrey because he didn't know what's going to happen next.

At last this chapter is done. I know it took so long but I was working on other chapters from my other stories and it's tough right now so sorry for the delay. I hope most of you enjoyed this part and once I get the other chapters done for my other stories I will come back to this soon. I also want to give credit to TheDragonSniper for some of his help as well so his words could come in for his OC when he speaks. So until then take care and I see you all later. Signing off.
