Chapter 3: The Snake Eater
Snake stood there in the jungle with a look of determination on his face. 36 year old Solid Snake looked as if he were scared of nothing. Snake was completely decked out in camouflage except for his face. His long, brown mullet waved freely throughout the air as he pulled out his bandanna and tied it on. Snake began searching through his suit, when he pulled out a small can of something from his pocket. It looked as if it was a canister of Copenhagen, but it wasn't. He placed his fingers in the can and began pressing them on his face. The color of green, brown, and black was smeared on his face. His codec rang as he pressed his index and middle fingers up by his ear.

Snake: This is Snake.
Campbell: Snake.
Snake: Colonel! What the hell are you doing?
Campbell: Snake, everything you've been told over the past few days are lies. All lies.
Snake: What are you talking about? Colonel, I thought you were kidnapped and killed?
Campbell: That's were your wrong Snake. It's just another one of the lies that have been fed to you. I've had Mr. Hunter placed under arrest for lying and fraud. Snake, There is so much, you don't know about right now! You have 90 hours to complete your mission. If you fail, The Patriots will take complete control of the world! The end will come!
Snake: Explain yourself.
Campbell: The Patriots, have found there new tool. The Snake Eater!
Snake: What the hell is the Snake Eater?
Campbell: The Snake Eater is an unstoppable fighting machine. He's super- human! Snake, not even you could kill the Snake Eater!
Snake: Is this thing even human?
Campbell: I don't know Snake. Not even I have been briefed about this thing!
Snake: I think you're lying to me Colonel! There's something here that you're not telling me!
Campbell: I've told you everything I know Snake. You only have only 90 hours to complete this mission.

Snake withdraws his hunting knife, equipped with a built-in compass, and his silenced Desert Eagle. He began heading north. The Russian jungle is a huge area. There are trees, mountains, wild animals, and who knows what else is out there. Snake pulls out his binoculars to take a look around. He spots 4 enemy sentries, when all of a sudden his codec rings.

Scrambled Female Voice: I am near by Snake! You must save me!
Scrambled Male Voice: Snake, help me!

He stands there in confusion. The wind is blowing strongly against him, making it harder for him to move, as he continues heading north. Out of nowhere, a Cobra stands face to face with him. Snake stands there in suspense, being still, and not making a single move! The Cobra hissed at him. He thought to himself if he should run or kill the cobra. Snake thought no longer, as he shot the Cobra in the head quickly and swiftly. He sat down to rest for a moment and thought about the fact that he had 90 hours and the world depended on him. His knife dug into the raw snake. He took a bite from it. The taste disgusted him, but he was hungry and had to survive. Enemy sentries popped out of nowhere and drew fire at Snake. "Take cover" he thought to himself.
Bullets were flying right by his head. It was four, full-equipped soldiers, with automatic machine guns going up against Snake, who only had a Desert Eagle. He was concerned of death, but adrenaline rushed through the veins in his body. Snake jumped out and drew fire, taking out 2 of the 4 soldiers. The firing stopped. He figured they were reloading, but all was quiet. A grenade flew through the air and landed right by his feet. Solid Snake dove under a cut down tree. There was mud, covering his whole suit. He lay there still and quiet waiting for the enemy's next move. There stood a foot right before his face. One of the soldiers was right above him.
Snake picked up rock sitting near by and threw about 10 feet away. The soldier went to inspect it and called for the other soldier to come take a look. With the opportunity now open, Snake popped out and killed both enemy sentries with one shot each, straight through there skulls. He went to examine the enemy's uniform. The codec rang.

Colonel: Excellent work Snake! Your age hasn't affected you one bit. You seem stronger than ever!
Snake: Colonel! After that last message you gave me, my codec rang again. It was a weird transmission. I heard both a man and woman voice, both asking for help. Both of the voices also knew my name.
Colonel: It's probably just the nanomachines in your body, acting up.
Snake: Are you sure. Both of the voices sounded so familiar but I just couldn't put the pieces together and figure out who it was.
Colonel: I'm sure Snake. It's happened to all of use before. Trust me, it shouldn't happen again. Over and out.
Snake: But, wait!

Evening drew, as the sun began to go down.
