Metal Gear Solid 3: Enter the Patriots
Chapter 11
Snake sensed the flash had cleared, and got up from his position, quickly he drew his Socom. Approaching his defeated foe....was she defeated? He wouldn't take any chance, to many times, the latter was not true. Finally, he was in front of her, silence, except for her involuntary breathing. So...., she was alive. Snake felt her over to see if she was armed, surprisingly she want.
"So she kills by impairing her opponents movements?" Snake questioned himself.
He stared at her a few seconds, and thought she most likely had broken a rib, maybe two. It didn't matter, he had a mission, she was a obstacle for him to over come.
"Codec time.." He said as he did the routine call to Otacon.
Snake: "Otacon, I just took down one of the terrorist leaders."
Otacon: "That would be Siren, if I'm not mistaken."
Snake: "You just find this out?"
Otacon: "Yes, apparently Target and her are the leaders of the group."
Snake: "Only two leaders, of a major terrorist group, what happen to all the other big bosses?"
Otacon: "They killed them off, all 13 of them to be exact."
Snake: "Some sick lovers, you think?"
Otacon: "Possibly, Snake you should interrogate the woman."
Snake: "Hmm, good idea."
Otacon: "Try to find out where Arsenal is, we have to stop whatever they are planning."
Snake: "Gotcha, Otacon."
A new transmission open, this time it was Meryl.
Meryl: "Snake"
Snake: "Yes, Meryl?"
Meryl: "You're so close, but it feels so routine doesn't it?"
Snake: "Yeah, it also seems routine something screwed up happens, its the risk you take when you do this...."
Meryl: "That's true Snake..."
There is a brief pause.
Meryl: "Snake..."
Snake: "Yes?"
Meryl: "After this is over, I want to see you again, Roy would too."
Snake: "Sounds good Meryl, but I won't think about that to the Mission is over."
Meryl: "Yeah, no distractions, that you Snake."
Snake: "That's why I go on mission alone, I don't want to worry about somebody else well being."
Meryl: "Makes sense, ok Snake, I'll let you go."
"Almost forgot." Snake said as he removed the device from her waist.
It would have been a rookie mistake to forget something so vital.
Snake looks over the woman and nudges her a few times, her eyes begin to weakly open. They begin to make out his face, and instantly he could see the anxiety in them. The eyes were full of fear and anxiety, Snake had got use to seeing this. It was nothing new to him, and with that said, he had some questions that needed answering.
Snake made sure his gun trained where she could see it.
"You awake?" Snake said in a normal tone.
"You....you used" She stammered.
"That's right, now I got some things to ask you." Snake already knowing the schedule response to what he said.
"I won't...." She said still dazed from what happen to her.
"You are no use to me then" Snake cocked back the Socom and got ready to fire.
"You wouldn't.....you need information from me....." She said feeling invulnerable to his actions.
"Nope, I don't play by those rules, besides I can get that out of Target." Snake said hoping, but knowing it would do little to her resolve.
"So then kill me......I'm more then willing to die for my cause." She said defiantly.
"What cause is that?" Snake said hoping to get something out of her.
"Fine, I'll tell you....."
Snake waiting for her to begin.
"Americans, I despise you Americans, arrogant and ambitious. You kill people across the world.....use excuses such as police actions to get away with murder.....murder. She stammered losing herself.
Typical, just another extremist, using extremes measures to get back at the country who murders. It didn't make their causes just even if America was wrong, in any case they were just like them. Snake waited for her to continue.
"Revenge…people say there is nothing in revenge, they are wrong. Revenge is something...it is a feeling, so that is why it is something.....and just like that revenge is the reason 3 major American cities will go up in flames.....you won't stop us.
Snake was surprised something like this was happening, but he knew there was more behind this then what he was hearing. Three American cities....
"I don't care what your ideals sought to accomplish or your revenge, no matter how just it may be." Snake said in a disconcerned voice.
"Typical American attitude." She said with a snort.
"Sorry, but I'm more than that." He said with a chuckle.
Suddenly, a strong light flash blinded him instantly, making him scamper a few feet back. And when Snake's eyes begin functioning properly again, she was gone.....
He could hear hysterically laughter throughout the room, but she could not be found anywhere. After a few moments the laughter died out…and there was silence.
"Otacon did you get that" Snake said knowing that Otacon was listening on the other side.
Otacon: "Yeah, three American cities, these guys are pretty sick."
Snake: "Not new to us, they'll probably push the launch schedule ahead since I'm here."
Otacon: "That's true, and Arsenal is probably going to be what launches the Nukes."
Otacon: "Yeah you're right, it has to be here.....but where?"
"Emergency.......Emergency Arsenal ready for boarding REPEAT Arsenal ready for boarding. All Personnel proceed to Hangar bay C for boarding. Repeat All Personnel proceed to Hangar bay C for boarding."
Snake: "Speak of the Devil....."
Otacon: "That's not good..."
Snake: "Where the hell is Hangar bay C!?"
The mysterious voice jumped into the conversation.
"It's the last floor of the elevator you got off."
Snake: "You again, you gonna stop playing charades?"
"Also, you should get that Stinger missile that is in the armory you passed, its in the second hold to the left, you'll need it for what is ahead."
Snake: "......"
"I'll reveal myself then"
And the mysterious voice was gone.
Otacon: "Who you think that was?"
Snake: "Dunno, but I don't trust who ever it is."
Otacon: "Who can you trust?"
Snake: "No one, no one here."
Otacon: "I see, Snake get to that destination."
Snake bolted out of the room into the armoury, he went in the second hold room on the left, for recon reasons, not for because of what the person told him on the Codec. Son a of a..... there was a stinger missile here. Whoever that character was, he wasn't an enemy...still Snake didn't trust the mysterious. He picked up the stinger and slung it over his shoulder and headed for the elevator, via the catwalk area.
