Cypher: Baseplate, we've got a "caller" with a lead on the chemical attacks. Says he'll only speak to you.

Baseplate: Identify yourself.

Price: Mac. It's John.

October 7th, 2016 - 01:22:41, Price makes an untraceable call to Baseplate. With it, the two old friends help each other put the pieces together in finding the source of the chemical weapons by tracing the freighter's route back to a terrorist camp in Bosaso, Somalia, run by Waraabe himself.

After Rook and the RL PMC tech teams reconned the base, the only way to get the terrorist general is to hit hard and fast through the front door. TF 141 will be accompanied by two friendly fireteams, and Nikolai, who will provide air support and exfil via MI-24 Hind.

All are in their civilian set.

Yuri

RL PMC, Task Force 141 - Disavowed

Bosaso, Somalia

Price: Just move quick and we can slate Waraabe before he bolts.

Soap: The sandstorm's moving in fast. We'll have one shot at this.

Yuri: *nods*

Price: Bravo Team, take point through the gate! Echo Team, cover our six!

Bravo 1: *thumbs up*

Rook: Roger that!

Nikolai kicks it off and the assault teams breach the front gate.

Soap: Slot these bastards fast!

Rook: Bravo, Echo, clear the delivery bays and shipwrecks, go!

Echo 1: Clearing now!

Bravo 1: Assisting now!

Price: Soap and I will lay down covering fire to thin the herd so we can move up the road!

Rook: You can also join me in sweeping the right side buildings! They're lightly defended and we can set up shop there!

Yuri chooses to go with Rook to the right side twin buildings, where they clear them, high and low, in ten seconds flat, and connect with air support. In response, the African Coalition sends mortars, technicals and reinforcements.

Price: They're targeting us with mortars!

Soap: Nikolai, we need air support! Technicals coming in from the north!

Nikolai: Additional forces closing in! Moving into position now.

Yuri takes control of the Hind's remote turret with explosive ammo.

Yuri: I've got control.

Soap: Light 'em up. Good effect on target, vehicles destroyed. At least three kills confirmed.

Nikolai: Multiple kills. Good kills. Very good kills.

Yuri: Target building MG nest destroyed. All mortar positions destroyed.

Rook: Fuck yeah! Chopper gunner ready to blow shit up!

Soap: Targets destroyed. Well done, Yuri.

After the gun run, most of the enemy forces have been destroyed and the rest have hunkered down in the left side building. Which means Price, Soap, Yuri and Bravo Team can move in to the center building.

Rook: They've fallen back to the right side building. Now's your chance, Price.

Price: I know, Rook. Bravo Team, secure the perimeter. Yuri, Soap, let's find this bastard.

Soap: Moving.

Yuri: Moving.

Price: Echo Team, we're entering the target building.

Echo 1: Roger that, Price. Echo 0, we're in position to clear the right side building.

Rook: Got it, Echo 1, so am I. In 2, 1, go!

While Price, Soap, Yuri and Bravo Team cut off and capture Waraabe, Rook and Echo Team breach and clear the right side building for stragglers and intel. Two minutes later, the entire courtyard is clear and an SSE begins.

Echo 1: *coughs coughs* Is that drugs?

Rook: You're right. Give me a pack of that.

Echo 1 passes contraband to Rook*

Rook: *coughs* Cocaine.

Echo 2: We have a lot of money and bank statements here.

Rook: Looks like narcotics are their source of funding. Ah, I remember coming across more piles of coke on the roof of the right side buildings. *points* There.

Echo 3: We have paper communications here. It says here that Colonel Farhan and Captain Mahad are supposed to report here. Orders from Waraabe.

Echo 4: They will also transfer the Coalition's hostages here. Coming from Sierra Leone.

Rook: Brilliant. Let's get the bags and steal all this intel. I'll let U.S. Spec Ops take care of the cocaine, officers and hostages.

Echo 1; You heard him, men. Let's go.

Four minutes of gathering later, Rook and Echo Team exfil in the jeeps they came in with.

Rook: Well done, mates. This is a big find. I'm proud of y'all. Let's call it in.

Echo 1: Nikolai, courtyard sanitized, Echo Team is exfiltrating to RV Charlie.

Back in the target building, Price, Soap and Yuri breach and clear until they find Waraabe while Bravo Team flanks and cuts off all possible escape routes. Five headshots later, the trio interrogate the general with a chemical grenade in his own office.

While having his life held hostage and his left leg broken, Waraabe reveals that his point of contact with Makarov was a man named Volk, who is in Paris, France. With that, Price executes him and heads for exfil with the others.

In the primary LZ, Bravo Team boards the chopper. But just as the trio do the same, Yuri spots and kills a sniper and RPG team.

Yuri: Snipers! RPGs!

Soap: Ambush!

Price: Nikolai, change of plan! Get Bravo Team out of here and head to the secondary LZ!

Nikolai: That sandstorm is closing in fast. I won't be able to touchdown once it hits.

Price: Just be there. We've got to push through to the secondary LZ before the storm hits. Let's move!

With possibly three and a half minutes left before the sandstorm lands, Nikolai gets Bravo Team to RV Charlie as quickly as possible. While Price, Soap and Yuri fight their way to the secondary LZ on the roof of a building under construction.

After dodging car bombs, and killing patrols and pursuers, they reach the LZ, only to find it surrounded with RPG teams who are not ready to give up. So Yuri gets back on the remote turret to clear it.

Nikolai: I hope my luck holds out.

Yuri: All hostiles d—

boom*

Nikolai: I'm hit! I'm hit!

Price: He's out of control. We've gotta get off this roof! Go! Use the ropes!

Soap: Jump!

Price: Nikolai? Nikolai, do you copy?

Soap: What the bloody hell are we going to do now?

Price: Echo Team, Nikolai's bird is down and the sandstorm is on top of us! We need emergency exfil!

Rook: You got it, captain. We're en route.

Echo 1: Roger. We'll contact you when we get a fix on Nikolai.

Price: C'mon, lads! We've got to reach Nikolai before Waraabe's men do!

With the worst case scenario in effect and the fail-safe initiated, both teams race to rescue Nikolai in sandstorm urban warfare. 30 seconds of treading around later, the trio kill Coalition search parties who were after Nikolai and Echo Team.

Price: Good to see you, mates! Where's the convoy.

Echo 1: We've got half of our team in three vehicles 50 meters to the northwest!

Price: All right! Yuri, grab Nikolai! Everyone else, suppress and fall back!

Yuri: Let's go, Nikolai.

Echo 1: Echo 2, we've got Nikolai! We're heading to the exfil point!

Rook: Charges set! Ready to destroy the chopper!

Price: Move out!

boom*

Rook: You're fine! Keep moving! I'm right behind you all!

Echo 1: Echo 2, we're approaching the exfil point!

Price: Come on, Yuri!

Soap: There's the rest or Echo Team!

Echo 1: Let's go! They're just past the ridge!

Price: Yuri, this way!

Rook leads the way at the bottom of the ridge and then lays down cover fire while everyone boards the jeeps. Then he rides last once everyone is present and accounted for.

Price: Move out!

Echo 1: Glad you made it!

Rook: Glad no one had to die out there! Good work, all!

Soap: So if Volk's in Paris, how are we getting there in the middle of a bloody war?

Price: We can't, but I know who can.
