CHAPTER #2:
A younger man sits in a recliner at his home. He is sitting there, watching Terminator 3 and smoking a Cigarette. The younger man is former Army PFC, David Marshal. The appearence of this man seems to be a lot different from his days as a Private in the army. When he was a private, the 19 year old had a crew cut, cleanly shaved face, and his voice wasn't as gruff as it was now from smoking 6 packs of cigarettes per day. Now, the 22 year olds crew-cut had transformed into a Mullet, his clean shaven face was now stubble, and his voice was a lot more deeper and growly than his time as an army private from 2006 - 2009. He had been retired from the Army since early May 2009 when he was promoted to PFC. As the movie was ending, a loud knock was at the door.
???: "This is the U.S. Army! Open up or we will open fire!"
David: "Go to hell! I am retired now, damnit!"
???: "YOU'VE HAD YOUR WARNING! WE WILL NOW USE FORCE!"
David: "HOLY S-!"
No sooner than 3 seconds after the Armed Soldier screamed out that they would use force, a Soldier kicks down the door and forces his way in. David tries to get out his .45 but its already too late. A Soldier sneaks up behind him and hits him over the back of the head with his AKS-74u. David's unconscious body falls to its knees, then face-forward to the floor. The Soldiers put him in Handcuffs, cease his .45 from him, and put him in the back of the vehicle they came in. 6 1/2 hours later, David wakes up in a dark room. Once he wakes up, a light turns on. Half of the room is now lit up, but only enough to barely make out the people in there with him. The General, John Reiser, starts to speak.
John: "It's been a while, hasn't it, Private?"
David, obviously pissed off at the whole situation, replies bitterly to the General.
David: "Whatever. What do you want from me, Reiser?"
The General is angered at the way the former Private addressed him. He lets out his anger right then and there also.
John: "YOU WILL ADDRESS ME AS GENERAL REISER AT THE VERY LEAST, SOLDIER!"
Even more angryer than a few seconds ago, David replies to the General with a lot of anger sensed in his gruff voice.
David: "LIKE HELL I WILL! I'm retired now and I refuse to take orders from you or anyone else!"
The General knows right off from there that a Corporal promotion would give David a passion to do this mission, he decides to use that as an offer for completion.
John: "Alright, fine. I'll just give up your Corporal promotion to another person of who seems to want it as badly as you used to."
The PFC now lightens up a bit, and decides to at least hear out the General.
David: "ALRIGHT! I'll do as much as hear you out. But at the end, I am having the final say in this! You may have a higher authority than me but I decided to co-operate, and at anytime, I can decide NOT to, alright?!?"
John: "Of course, but I know you will want to do this. We have recieved an Anonymous Tip about 7 hours ago that a new Metal Gear is in development."
Curious about the new war machine, David cuts in wondering about what its codename is.
David: "Bet it has a good Codename. What is it?"
The General replies bitterly yet seriously.
John: "The Codename is X."
David: "X What?"
John: "Just...X."
David: "Figures, seeing the best names have already been taken..."
John: "Lets get back to the mission, huh? Now, this and the location of the Metal Gear is all we have currently. The base is located just outside of Trenchtown, Jamaica. We will go within 50 miles of it over the ocean, from there you will Parachute out and swim one mile to shore. From there, you will have to make your way through 49 more miles to get into the base. An estimated 3 to 5 days just to infiltrate. Once you reach the base, contact me and I will tell you what to do from there. I suspect there will be Enemy Soldiers, a few Gun Cyphers, and a hell of a lot of endangered animals to fight your way through on the infiltration."
David: "Damn! Well, I guess its better than living out there. What weapons am I gonna be carrying?"
John: "Combat Knife and your usual pack of Cigs. Other than that, this op is Weapons and Equipment OSP."
David: "On-Site Precurement huh. Well, any other information?"
John: "Unfortunetly, no. You'll have to infiltrate and gather the rest of the Intelligence yourself. Contact me whenever you find out anything, the frequency will be the same as it always is; 130.50. For now your Primary Objective is to Infiltrate and destroy Metal Gear X. If anything should happen however, the Objectives will be subject to change. Now get some rest because you are going to need it."
The General leaves the room. At the same time he leaves, the door the the small cubicle David is in opens. He walks out, and notices he is naked. But he finds his street clothes hung over a chair in the room. He puts those on, leaves the area, and The General walks up to him.
John: "Your barracks are over there. Go get some rest, I have some mission preparations to tend to."
As John is walking away, David hesitantly calls out to him.
David: "General?"
John: "What?"
David: "I have some conditions that need to be met before I accept this thing."
John: "Name them."
David: "One: I want complete disclosure of EVERYTHING going on with the mission at all times and Two: If I should choose to quit this thing at any time, I am to have the right to do so. I will kill you myself and head back home if these conditions are not met."
John: "Conditions Granted, Soldier. I'll talk to you later."
The General leaves the Barracks area while the retired PFC heads to his barracks. Once there, he goes over to his bed and goes out like a light.
