Chapter 6 Heist going Live.
Six was heading to check on York, who's been in the medical bay for the past few days. During that time, the Spartan Six had punished Wyoming and Maine, which was lessened when he learned they were told to do it by the Director. The two also learned to fear Six's wrath over the Directors. When Six entered York's room, he thought Carolina would be in the room with her boyfriend.
"What are you doing here?" Six Recognize the voice glancing at the sitting Agent Texas.
"I wanted to check on York." Six remained standing since he was not staying long, and Tex has taken the only chair in the room, "Has he been asleep all day?"
"Yes, your "student" is resting like anyone would in a hospital." Six glances at Tex, wondering when did he as the kids put it "Piss in her cereal," "What are you looking at!?"
"Wondering what I did to get you angry," her voice was clearly worn, telling him that Tex was likely around his age most likely; she rocketed to her feet and tried to get in his face, but he was a few inches taller than her, so it did not work as effectively as Tex wanted.
"Because I know what type of monster you are Spartan, a heartless one who kills anyone and everyone." He did not respond back because, deep down, he knew she was right, or at least who he was, as she walked past him to the door, "Also you're late to the meeting."
"Meeting?" but Tex was already gone to clarify what she said to him, Six signs and left York to rest some more.
"Well I guess my nap time is over." York opened his eyes as this whole time he was resting but not fully asleep. As he got out of bed start to stretch and head to the armory to get a new suit of armor and get back into action.
Six soon reach the deck where they usually talk about missions pre or post to grade the agents on their performance. When he entered the room after the door opened automatically, and saw most of the top agents already there; and most were happy to see Six since he could help them in the heist they are planning, except.
"Agent Six you are not needed so I will politely ask you to-" Six raised a hand while shaking his head at the Director as he pretty much made it clear he was not leaving,
"So what is mission Carolina? Is this planning for a major shopping trip?" throwing a joke into his question to lighten the mood and also piss off the Director.
"Well sir we are planning a heist to get something-"
"Something that doesn't require someone as gun ho as you agent Six." Director interrupts his daughter, making it clear he doesn't want the Spartan involved in this even though it might help the mission fly smoother.
"First off you know that lie so why say it? Second, would it be wiser to allow the Spartan of the project to give his assistance in planning the heist at least, it's not like he has done shit like this for years or anything." The Counselor gives a look to the Director that shows he agrees with the Noble Six and the Director's only response with a sigh of frustration. "Anyway, continue Carolina."
"Something called the Sarcophagus and get the key code to open it." Six nodded as he examined the map and the plan of entering the building and striking the member of the program that has the key code, and what he saw was sloppy.
"First off I recognize this building so the vault should be right here." pointing to it on the hologram forming a red dot there already got a good idea how they get in but first objective B.
He looked at the path the key code carrier will be driving through saw it was a typical circle around the city, so this will be easy to find places to ambush it. Noble Dix places a few spots on the map before saying to the rest,
"Here are all possible places that will be good to set up and ambush." the rest like those options except C.T. She was quiet, examining all the changes the Spartan was placing in and getting worried though no one saw except you reading this.
"Thank you sir. we need to get both because if we leave with only one we will miss out chances at getting what's inside the sarcophagus." Carolina said to her team as Six thinks more about what to change about the plan.
"So I guess we will be divided into two teams?" Wash asked, and Carolina confirmed along with saying Team A will be herself Wash and Maine and told the younger agent that he has to be their lock picker, "Um.. okay. I guess I better read my locking picking manual on the transport there."
"Hey. Don't be so quick to replace me." all turn to see York up and in a new set of armor that looks like his old gold and silver armor, Carolina approaches him and asks the question everyone was asking on the inside.
"I thought you were still not ready to enter the field due to your injuries." Carolina might be over worrying about York. If not for Six and Tex's combined effort, he might be one eye down.
"I was going to be out later today anyway so I decided to just leave a bit early." York walks past her to get a closer look at the table as he spoke some more, "Looks I can't let myself sleep while you guys have all the fun without me. Besides, my skills will aid in a mission like this."
Agent Washington approaches Six, and Carolina are worried for his friend like the rest but wanted to voice his concerns to the boss and Spartan boss.
"Listen I'm happy he is up for this but are you sure it's wise to have him-"
"Hey. If York says he's good, then he's good." as she walked past Wash to join York's side, while Wash glanced at Six for his thoughts on this, who knew that York would be a great help in team A's breaking part but he might not be back to 100 percent.
"Don't push yourself too hard on the field. Especially when you have not fully healed." Six worried York underestimating his progress in the healing.
"Of course I will be the boss." Six nodded, also seeing Carolina elbowing York since he gave mister spartan. Six then spoke once more about the plan for the heist.
"Team A your way in will be a bit extreme but I assure you it will be the best way in without having to climb up the many stairs. The method I had in mind is for you to use the wingsuit armor attachment." Wash was nervous since he never took training to use a wingsuit, unlike the rest. But Six planned for that. "You Wash will be riding on the back of…."
Six skipped York for his health, just in case. Carolina Six passed on since he didn't want Wash's cock pressing into Carolina's butt. So Six landed on Maine, who was shaking his head no very fast. Six was about to tell him to suck it up.
"Fine, I'll do it." Carolina said she can handle beside; she knows Wash won't do anything too bad riding on her back, along with it giving her more ammo to tease Wash in the future. How can she pass it up?
"So Six, how will we get past the alarms to get inside?"
"Clever girl I shall piloting Gracey to-"
"Okay whose Gracey?" CT interrupted Six, a bit annoyed, but he would gladly inform the curious brown armored agent about Gracey.
"Gracey is a drone made by me and a friend to shatter glass without triggering alarms. That will get Team A inside on the floor that the vault is on." Six then noticed someone was missing, "where is Agent South?"
"Agent South will not be on this mission." Director said to the spartan, and CT commented.
"Guess the world gets cruel when you fall down the rankings." Six ignore it and look at the Director and decide to ask another question.
"South is a very good soldier, especially in combat, her assistance will be a good help, especially if this box is as important as you are making it out to be." the Director was about to say something, but Six was already on it, "she be team B North will keep an eye on her and also pretty simple object get case, also kill person attached to case."
"What about the new recruit? Will she be joining this heist?" and the Director very clearly told her to stop it, but everyone knew that he confirmed it more or less. Carolina spoke up once more,
"Team B's objective should be simpler to achieve. Stop the vehicle and snatch the case. Team A on the other hand, there are more factors to it, mainly the unknown details of the Sarcophagus." Wash asked how unknown is she talking about the object? "Unknown in that we don't know about its size or its weight, or even its dimensions. All we know is it will have these markings on it."
On the hologram map table, markings were three sticks forming a Y shape, but it was upside down with three circles with a section missing and had marking inside them.
"I saw those same markings on the oil platform." which was shared by Six, but he did not say it out loud.
"Correct. That facility created the primary objective." Six wonders if he meant the objective itself or what holds the objective? Six was aware most times, they put important stuff inside boxes for extra protection. Washington asked the question shared by most people here,
"Do we know what's inside it?" Director answered Washington's question by saying they did know, which confused everyone since it seemed the Director just contradicted what they actually knew.
"How do we know what's inside but not how big it is?" which got a cold stare from the Director which she was about to "apologize" when Six spoke up.
"It's rude to keep a lady in suspense, Director. How big are we talking, something like a football, or something as big as brute." though when he looked at the others looking at him confused at what he said, Six was not sure if it flew over their heads or it was not; even funny? Six can't tell with them.
"If you care to know agent Six it should be as tall as the average human." He clearly did not want to say that, but Six forced his hands. Carolina tried to stop her father and mentor from fighting, likely they seem to do on a weekly basis.
"We got a job that needs to be done, people. Let's do this right and come home safely." The Director was about to say something. Six once more cut him off,
"Remember this will be the toughest mission yet. Prepare for hell because it's for sure not going to be a walk in the park." Six could feel his body cringing at what he said, but it seemed everyone else didn't think the same.
"YES SIR!" But it seems to have worked as they shouted, motivated by what he said as all left to get ready for the toughest mission they have done yet.
As the two teams headed into the hangar to get into their respected Pelicans for the heist they are about to take part in, we see the Dakotas talking as North informs his sister about the plan.
"I thought I was being benched, who decided to undo that?" North just pointed at six, and South had mixed feeling on this, "Fuck."
"I think he wants to talk to you before the mission fully goes underway." South sighed, knowing her bro was right as usual as she walked towards the spartan three.
"Hey, Teach." Six turns to face South with his arms crossed. South treaded carefully since she cannot read his emotions. "Thanks for bringing on the mission. But can I ask why?"
"Simple this is an important mission and we need all hands on deck in that case, don't care what the Director thinks." South nodded but wondered if that was it from Noble Six,
"Behave and listen to your brother. However, do aid him when shit hits the fan, you're good at that."
"Thank you sir." as she heads to the Pelican where Team B was boarding feeling energized and less stressed out, in fact, more energized.
Six hops on Niner's Pelican, which held Team A inside as he held Gracey. Gracey was a custom drone wielding a sonic gun that would shatter the window to get Team A inside the building.
"So who's the friend?" Six was confused why York ask that until he figures it out,
"She was a fellow Spartan that was good with machines."
"IS that all she was good at?" Six did not answer as she stared at York for a few seconds before entering the pilot seats, "I see it's possible for even a Spartan to be a virgin."
The two Pelicans flew out the Mother of Invention and entered the atmosphere of the mostly desert-like planet. Niner's bird in the sky was going to the right spot and height needed to let the three flying squirrel agents glide right to their objective. Once they arrive at the spot as the agents got the wingsuit armor enhancement. Six places down Gracey and turn it on and control it out of the Pelican and dropping to the city below.
Washington was not sure how to attach to Carolina's back. Carolina was helping Maine and York gets the wingsuit on and made sure they knew how to activate them.
"So Carolina how do I attach myself to-" Carolina pressed her back into his chest like she was trying to. Well, feel her ass on his crotch, but it was actually to magnetize his chest to her back, "was that necessary?"
"Just be ready in case someone tries to shoot at us. Also I better not feel something poking my back while we're in the air." Wash rapidly nodded, and it brought a smile to her face. He was too easy to tease. She turned to Six, who was still controlling the drone.
"Remember to let me know when the window is in your vision let me know. Also take the object to the roof since it is the best place to bring aboard a Pelican." Carolina nodded as she joined Maine and York lining up to hop out of the Pelican and was just waiting for the call, "Remember one shot people. Now flying nut lovers."
"That was a horrible JOKE!" he screamed when Carolina jumped out, followed by York and Maine, "AW could have given me a warning before hopping off."
"That would be Wash. Besides, it's the way of Leeroy Jenkins." York joked over the comms to his black and yellow pal.
"Leeroy is a horrible path to follow." Wash commented, but Carolina decided to join on the comms,
"Quiet ladies were about to activate wings on my call." York and Maine nodded as they kept free falling to the city below. as they got closer and closer, "NOW!"
All three spread their arms out as hard light forming wings like that of a flying squirrel as air slammed into it, allowing them to glide through the air. Maine's wings were orange while York's was green, and Carolina was cyan like her armor. They start to glide towards their building and keep their height since the vault was on the upper levels of the building.
Gracey, which was Six and Lexi's baby they made long ago that Six kept through in one of the stashes across the universe. Six got the drone in place, just waiting for Carolina to tell him to do his thing. As he did once his time with Freelancer is over, maybe he finally reunited Lexi face to face, maybe finally try an actual relationship like most boys and girls. However, he did not feel he deserved happiness?
"Six the window is in my sights, do your thing." Six nodded as he pressed the button, and Gracey shot a sonic blast to shatter the glass in a particular way not to trigger the alarms. "Thanks."
"No problem Carolina. Good luck." as he starts piloting Gracey back to Niner's Pelican. After a few minutes, it arrives, and Six gently puts it away somewhere so it doesn't break if Niner has to do some intensive flying.
"So what's the name of your girlfriend?" NIner asks as she goes looking for a tall building to perch the Pelican until needed for a lift or aerial support. "Is she a goddess or just a cute Kawii?"
"I guess she would be.. Whatever the hell Kawaii is. She might be cute but she will not take your shit." remembering that one time she grabbed a perv nut when they touched her ass to get a feel of it. "Though she was not a bitch. She is very caring, though does have some wit to her."
"Sounds like your type." Six looks at the chuckling pilot, confused on why she said that, and two, how dare she assumes she knows his type, " Come on Spartan you have a thing for badass chicks that are witty."
"How did you come to this conclusion? Doctor." Niner chuckled as she tried to figure out her answer. Since Niner did not want Six to call her out for shooting in the dark for her comment.
"Well you and Carolina are close so there's that, along with myself of course." Six just rolled his eyes as he waited for the shit to hit the fan so he could do something, "Also to the chick in black."
"Tex? Why do you assume that?" she looked at him since she had landed the Pelican at this point, "I think she wants to murder me going off the vibe she giving me."
"Sometimes the ones that want you dead love you the most." Niner jokes, but she thinks it's possible.
"Dear god." Six hope it remains a joke, and Niner, not a prophet, Six has enough crap on his plate to deal with a psychotic yandere.
