Metal Gear Solid: Shadow Agenda
Chapter 24: Burnhams Betrayal
Burnham glared into the monitor. He could see Ocelot beginning to electrocut Snake. Burnham despised Ocelot. He considered him a sick man, and couldn't wait to leave his presence. Several soliders had assembled behind Burnham, awaiting his command.
"Soliders, you have served me well, but now is the time to get away while you still can.", Burnham told his loyal comrads.
The commander of the squad spoke up.
"I'm sorry sir, but we cannot leave you. We are your soliders sir. We will not leave you."
"I command you to go, now do it! That is an order!"
"We refuse, sir.", one of the other soliders said.
"Fine, but I am dissmissing you all now. If you want to come with me, then do so, but you are on your own now."
He turned to the control panel, but paused before he did. He felt the metal case in his pocket containing the optical disks that the info from the Founding Fathers was contained on.
"Thank you, my soliders.", Burnham replied."You have served me well. I am proud of all of you. And now, let's end this."
Burnham set a timer for five minutes and unlocked a bulletproof glass case. He opened it and paused again. He gave a long sigh. He knew what had to be done. He pushed the button. Suddenly alarms and red lights went off all over the compound.
"The self destruction sequence has been activated. All locks to all mechanical and electrical devices will be unlocked. All power will shut down approximately thirty seconds before detonation. All security has been disabled. Please evactuate the base immediately. This base will self destruct in five minutes."
Burnham quickly turned to his soliders.
"Now, let's get out of here."
Burnham and his soliders fled the room, not turning back.
...Meanwhile...
As Revolver watched the screenmonitor just before it turned off, he cursed Brunham.
"Damn you. I should have known you would betray me."
What Revolver did not realize was that the locks on his toture device had been released. Before Ocelot could turn around again, Snake kicked him, sending him flying through the glass window. Snake then quickly grabbed his equipment, threw Lotus over his shoulder and fled the room. Ocelot was quick enough on his feet though to get up and give chase to Snake.
"You will not get away from me, Snake."
Snake turned his attention to his codec.
"Otacon."
"Snake, whats going on?!", Otacon answered.
"Burnham triggered the detonation sequence. I guess he's been in thsi for himself the whole time. I need a way out of here. Where can you pick me up at."
"Well, I am looking at a large watertank right now. It'll give you a good chance to hop in without me having to slow down much. But you gotta hurry. I won't be able to wait for you."
"How do you I get there though?"
"Oh, just leave that to me."
"Well, lead the way", Snake said as he continued down the hall.
