The predicament of Koko having contacts in country especially those within the military and police forces complicates TF-141's mission since she is known to be requesting favors from her clients or business partners.

Bravo team took everything from the office safehouse back to an American Embassy in the city just at least a few blocks from the police station where Koko and her team is hunkered down with several sets of eyes monitoring any movement.

Washington D.C

04:22 AM

George Black was alone near the newly rebuilt washington monument carrying only his leather briefcase since the park is visually deserted as no-one not even a car can be seen on sight either in the parking or the streets.

He was staring down the moment from the path lamenting the patriotic service he would be doing for his country despite the cost, eventually footsteps are heard from behind turning to see a middle aged man in a suit.

"Pleasure that you could get the time to meet me director." george shook the director of the CIA's hand as they soon took a stroll.

"You better explain to me why i shouldn't ask for you resignation, Black" the director asked him but he simply fixed his glasses before sneaking a chuckle.

"I assure you sir, i have something worth of your time and its probably the biggest fish we could hook on since Makarov." Black assured the director which puts him at ease a bit explaining the dealings between HCLI and Makarov including their arms dealing operations around the world.

"May i remind you also George that the CIA's reputation is tainted since the previous director failed to see an attack on our soil and europe was inevitable. The death of Allen made sure of the CIA being a menace to the public and the world."

"The burning of Langley and the pentagon pretty much shapes our current situation now sir, the European Division is working hard on this information in fact our team in indonesia is making some progress."

"Keep me posted on their current situation and we do not want a repeat of the op in Rio, they better come with something good at least for us to ease the shoulders of everyone in the white house."

The director then walked away into the distance as Black fixed his glasses feeling proud of himself as he too walked to the opposite direction.

Meanwhile…

16:22 PM

Bali, Indonesia

Outside the police precinct

Frost,Burns, Walcroft and Hex are sitting inside smoking hot black sedan just parked around the corner to the precinct with Ramirez and Emilie providing overwatch at a rooftop not far from there. Everybody is sweating since the indonesian summer heat is kicking in, hence why most people are outside and Air conditioner in the car is stretching to the limit unable to keep up with the heat.

"That AC is broken or what? This fucking heat is killing me." Wallcroft groaned as he leaned his back on his seat. Burns doesn't take notice since he took a swig from his canteen before continuing to read a book titled "How to speak indonesian for dummies" meanwhile Frost kept a sharp eye at the front seat.

Hex was visibly teasing him as she pretended to sigh and exposing her cleavage underneath her plaided top despite wearing a vest but Frost resisted her charm since it could be evident that she has a crush on him.

"Bravo 1 this is Baseplate, give me a sitrep over." Macmillan spoke in their earpieces.

"Baseplate, Bravo 1 no signs of activity at this time all seems to be business as usual." Frost replied.

Nothing is visible other than regular civvies exiting and entering the building with several police officers taking a coffee break in front, chatting or making the rounds throughout the area.

Meanwhile…

Ngurah Rai international Airport

Koko and her team managed to sneak away from the Task force's grip by using and hiding themselves within a SWAT truck under the guise of an emergency since it would be evident that they would monitor the Radio Channels. The truck stopped at a storage area for the airport terminal just near the runway and the door swung open with sunlight stinging their eyes since the inside of the truck was pitch black.

"Have a safe trip ms Hekmatyar." a police lieutenant extended his hand to Koko which she proceeded to shake. The team than proceeded to take their baggage from the truck but Jonah notices that Koko stood aside to take a phone call.

"So doc are you still going ahead for the rendezvous?" Koko answered on her phone.

Several thousands of miles southwest…

Johannesburg, South Africa

05:42 AM

Dr Miami is on her usual butterfly hunt on the snowy mountain with her servant and whilst she has a butterfly net on one hand, she has a sat phone on the other.

"Italy is a fine place to meet up and plus i like Italian so see ya there Koko!" as soon as the phone call began she immediately hanged up and proceeded to continue her butterfly hunt.

Back at the airport…

"Alright everyone, our next flight is going to Italy and i need everyone to keep a steady head since those 141 guys are hunting us now, copy?" Koko told her team and everyone replied with an "okay" before heading down the runway to an awaiting HCLI Antonov Cargo plane just several metres away.

That was Dr Miami on the phone, what could they possibly be talking about? Jonah said in his thought staring at Koko doing her signature smile before setting her eyes back on Jonah. The entire crew start loading up inside the Antonov alongside strapped down Toyota SUV's and not long after the plane starts taxiing down the runway before taking off leaving Bali. Though the crew seems to be in the clear for now, their escape was evidently planned from the start since Burns and Wallcroft are standing at the terminal seeing the plane depart, Wallcroft speed dialled his phone and the rest of the team are also in a hangar just far off the runway.

"They just took off Boss, how long are we gonna give them a headstart?" Wallcroft said and on the other end was Frost supervising everyone to pack up the gear into an C-17 evidently Baseplate was running the op from there.

"At least a day or two otherwise they'll know we are onto them, Baseplate's telling us we will follow from a distance they recognize us at least just get back here." Frost hanged up soon after before heading inside the C-17 to be briefed by Macmillan, Macmillan was looking over a laptop showing Koko's heading towards Italy then noticing Frost.

"How was your first day back into the shite?"

"Just peachy sir and the embassy sends their best, so where are they heading?"

"Bookman's asset already setted a tracker for us to follow and according to their heading it seems they are heading towards Italy, Schokolade managed to intercept a phonecall from Koko and this woman."

The screen lit up with a recorded voice of Koko's and Dr Miami's phonecall, also shown on the screen is Dr Miami's bio which Frost read carefully whilst listening in on their conversation and the mention of a "plan" just creates a harrowing concern.

"Whatever these girls are up to Sergeant, we'll have to put a stop to it." Macmillan patted Frost on the back before turning to order the rest of the staff to hurry with the loading.

Several Hours later…

21:30 PM

50,000 feet

Indian Ocean

Koko called for everyone inside the plane for a briefing to explain more about the guy's chasing them courtesy of the intelligence given from her mole within that Task force i.e Schokolade, she stood in front of everyone with a makeshift slideshow using a tarp from the vehicles as a screen and projector.

"Ok so everyone since we have seen from Bali now it became clear that the guy's chasing us are pros and though i gave you all a crash course on who they are, this is more detailed."

The click of a button on her hand changed to show the faces of every person in Bravo team with another click it shows a photo of Frost and his Bio.

"Derek 'Frost' Westbrook, US army Delta Force Staff Sergeant. Born and Raised in Michigan, Enlisted at the age of 18. Frost has served in a Delta Unit callsign 'Metal' fighting in the battle of New york along with rescuing the US vice president in Hamburg."

Soon thereafter Koko started introducing the other members discussing their service records and their deployments, it was soon clear to them that they are facing the toughest enemies with their tall tales from the white house to the gas attacks in Westminister. Lehm and Lutz were eager to face off against them once again but R doesn't seem too pleased since the people chasing them are envied throughout the Military world and it doesnt help that he could be caught in the crossfire.

Jonah was that all worried and his concern grew more since these guys are all battle-hardened veterans that have seen more action than he did since he joined Koko's crew, even though he had his fair share of "fun" especially with the events in Africa and Dubai with the duo bounty hunters. Surely this time is different and he knows that its impossible to shake them off even if they reached the edge of the world somewhere.

Meanwhile…

The C-17 was quiet since everybody including the intelligence staff were sleeping on the chairs and Bravo team was sleeping on Hammocks makeshift on the plane, Frost was used to sleeping long hours on them reminiscent of his deployment to Europe about a year ago but he seems to be keeping awake just researching about their opponents.

Frost was blankly staring into the screen detailing information about HCLI's link with Makarov including financial transactions,scheduled weapons drops and meeting locations with Kasper but despite that the mention of a plan from Koko is more than concerning. With the click of a button it then showed the full bio of Jonah and Frost read through it word for word from top to bottom, starting from how his village was destroyed by Kasper to his assignment as Koko's bodyguard.

"Jesus christ, kid is working for the murderers that wiped his family." Frost muttered before he heard a giggle behind me, alarmed he then quickly drew his sidearm at the source of the voice but Hex was amused playfully raising her arms in the air.

"Woah, Easy there cowboy, its just me and i need coffee." Frost lowered his USP down then putting it back in its holster, Hex strutted forward to look at what he was browsing late at night.

"I heard you didn't go with your team to take down Makarov, too bad i wanted to be part of that op but the brass just couldn't agree with it." Hex told Frost which struck a nerve inside of him.

"And from what i read in your file Hex, it seems you killed more than a dozen suspects but i get it wasn't easy considering you were in the chick platoon of the SFG."

Frost crossed his arm and leaned back, Hex turned to face him slightly flashing a grin.

"You got a problem with girls that kick ass better than you D-boys? Sandman was my instructor too."

"Yeah and you were the top of the class huh? After the twin towers and after, he was probably proud of you now if he were here."

Hex took another step forward, Frost could notice the frustration in her eyes despite the cool look.

"I'm a Patriot, Frost and don't you forget since the first two rounds with Koko didn't workout it seems that we need to step up the game after what happened back there."

She gave him a grin before going further back the plane to her spot, Frost had read that she came across Koko once before the war near Serbia and that she killed a member of Koko's team.

Several Hours Later…

Somewhere in Florence, Italy

09:34 AM

The entire team are in a conference room at a hotel with Koko ready to begin the briefing on their assignment in Florence, She was standing up front as usual with a powerpoint presented projector.

"Ok everyone so here's our job for today, we are going to secure a shipment of HK's to a group of crooked cops on the take here and also we have a meeting with dr Miami later at 6 so that means those 141 operators are probably not that far off. Got it?"

Everybody replied with an "Okay" then Koko proceeded to fill in everyone's roles throughout the mission as they would be meeting in the Italian countryside in broad daylight with several crates of firearms.

Jonah,Valmet and Koko would be on the ground with Wiley, Lehm and Ugo providing the exfil while the rest would take overwatch in case the deal goes awry or when their 'friends' would come around to visit.

Jonah and Wiley went to a separate room after they dismissed to start his per usual lesson which is about languages and Jonah didn't complain although he still can't stop thinking about the team that chased them.

"Something on your mind, little man?" Wiley looked at Jonah since he's been staring at his paper for a while.

"Huh? Oh nothing just thinking of the right answer here."

"You sure about that Jonah? I never seen you take that long with a test and plus this isn't math."

"Its not that easy learning a new language but i guess you kind of caught me on that one, I was just thinking of those operators. You know the ones that chased us back at the hotel?"

"What about them?"

"Its just that they fight like no one else we encountered not even those guys from my first day, Koko's talking about a plan earlier with dr Miami on the phone which made me think that it had something to do with that."

"I hear you Jonah and those guys are pretty impressive especially the delta force guy on their team with what he went through, i probably couldn't imagine but always remember that we are a family Jonah and the little lady has looked after us since then, so i trust her wherever we go."

Jonah gave it some thought than went back to his assignment staring down the pages while thinking of what Wiley said to him soon flashbacks of all their ordeals from his first meeting with Koko to the fiasco in Africa put those thoughts to rest.

Several more hours later…

16:27 PM

A church somewhere in Central Florence

R was sitting alone in the church altar and he was assuming a prayer position, Frost walked in to see his contact slumped down than he proceeded to walk up and sit next to him. The church was empty and there was no one there except the two of them, the rest of Frost's team are holding security outside quietly and out of sight discreetly.

"I didn't take you were religious considering your past but its not my place to judge."

"You should really work with your first impressions, i heard its important to have manners especially since it could get you killed."

Frost scoffed and looked forward.

"You here to give us what we need to know about our target or to simply waste our precious time?"

"Koko and the rest of her team are on high alert for you guys but the strangest thing is that she already knew about you and your team even before the Bali op, it seems somebody from your outfit has tipped her off somehow."

"You fucking serious? The only people that have intel on that op are your people and everyone else in the 141, there is no way that anyone in our unit would sell us out it takes more than money or anything else less."

"I admit that its probably a mole from our end but you might need to set yourselves back from Koko for now, she already made contigencies and set plans for when your team shows up including a surprise set up by wiley in case you are going for her."

"I'm aware of him being a hound dog for EOD and all that shit, "

"Likely using C4s or handmade IED's also sniper overwatch from Lehm and Lutz but the rest of the team would be on the ground with Koko, the weapons handover is with members of local PD on the take and the meet is schedule tonight at Vineyard 5 clicks southeast."

"You said something to Black about a meeting with a certain doctor Amada and if you want my team to stand back we want to know everything about Koko's operation and her motives."

Frost then took out a small cigarette pack and hand it over to R.

"I didn't take you for being a smoker."

"I'm not and this is here is a recording device, the 141 needs to know whether the threat is real or not and i don't care what you have to do except get in close for it to work properly. By the way this is also a direct order from Black for you so good luck."

Frost took his leave as he went outside the church telling his team to pull back towards the safehouse in the city. R looked down on the cigarette recording device and to his surprise its actually a real pack and the device is small and concealable, wasting no time he took one in his mouth then lit a lighter while nicotine ash and ember float through breathing in the addictive fumes.

"Baseplate this is Bravo 1, Asset has been notified RTB."

"Roger that Bravo 1 return to base."

Frost then boarded a black suburban just around the corner to pick him up before speeding away from the church back to their safehouse, Dunn was driving, Frost was in the passengers whilst at the back was Rochelle with Burns and at the rear of their vehicle they are followed by a mercedes SUV with the rest of the team.

Frost stared outside the window into the setting sun hovering over the city as the column drove back to their safehouse located in the middle of the city whilst meanwhile Baseplate and the rest of the staff began to get into work to make sure that the operation goes well.
