"Boat Ride Into The Darkness"
Chapter three fanfic
wrote by Gray Fox
Snake arrived at the private island off of Hawaii named Shadow Moses at the
crack of dawn.. He moved over to a set of bushes trying to keep his equipment from rattling as much as possible.. After a quick view around he motioned Meryl to move to his position.. It was hot and sunny with a nice breeze.. Normally it would be a good day for a swim, with a picnic and the beach, warm sun. But Snake couldn't think about that now. He was already in
the zone for some action, and he has never been this ready for it in so long. The new Metal Gear's would be a new experience of course, and because
they had stealth he had to keep his eyes peeled for any changes in the
environment.
"Meryl, we're going to have to be extra careful around here. We don't know
what those things are capable of yet."
"The only thing I'm worried about is the stealth."
Max had both given them aerial images of the island for a map. It shown a very small island showing little to know activity and alot of bush's and
wildlife all throughout it. Max had marks on the map pointing at their
entry point and the suggested route they should take to get to the main
objective. Find the documents on the trade route for metal gear's, and
return with them for further investigation.
They both decided to stick together. It would be easier to fight any Metal Gears they encounter that way and they wouldn't have any worry on loosing
each other.
"Meryl!" Snake wispered loudly and quickly yanked Meryl over in the bush's
to hide.
A noise started to approach and then all of a sudden it appeared. A clear object that resembled heat waves made its way close to their position and then suddenly cut off the stealth. Operated by one man and only about 30 feet tall just like Max said. They were mounted with standard missles and
packed a heavy 50. cal machine gun.
"We should take it." Meryl softly wispered "They Don't look like they can
do much."
"No.. Stay low and keep quiet" Snake lowered himself even further..
The Fox unit activated its stealth again with a few little flash's and then disappeared. Snake followed the sound until he was sure it was far enough
way they could move again. The day got warmer, the trees provided some shade from the sun but the heat was almost overwhelming. Snake shared his
canteen with Meryl being as sparing as possible. They took a small rest stop in the thick of the jungle so it would be hard to spot their movement. Meryl fanned herself off while slumped against a tree and Snake of course
kept watch.
"According to the map we must be close to the base or whatever" Meryl said
now refreshed.
"We will just keep heading until we find something. I haven't seen any sort
of sign yet."
They kept moving quietly and slowly for an hour until they came across a fence. Meryl slowly peered from the bush's through the fence and onto the base. It was the main base most likly used for the production or selling of the new Metal Gears. Meryl spotted them patrolling and being prepared to be loaded onto a boat. There was alot of moving down at that portion of the
base which was close to the exit. The rest was quite except for the
occasional camera, guard, or Fox unit..
The base was surrounded by a tall wire fence that was topped with barbed
wire and was actually smaller than was expected. It had only three warehouses for storage of food, baracks on a side and the Office's. There
was only one main entrance which was guarded by camera's and Metal Gear
Units.
"Hmm This isn't going to be easy and there's little room to work with
here."
"Maybe we should take different parts of the base Snake. I'll take the warehouses and you take the offices.. It will either be in one of the two..
"
Snake agreed and they review their plan together final over and over again for no misunderstandings. Snake reached into his pocket to pull out some wire cutters and began cutting the barbwire close to the ground. He finally got it just right to squeez underneath and get his equipment. He went to a
row of landscaped bush's to watch Meryl's back as she moved in.
Meryl squeezed herself underneath the fence and made her way over to Snake.
"Be careful" She told him with a worried look in her eyes "I don't know
what I would do without you"
"I will.. Same to you " Snake kissed Meryl before she made her way off
towards the buildings.
He watched her sneak off and into the buildings of the warehouse before he
realized what he was doing. He started to move to the other side of the base to infiltrate the office's and complete the search for the documents.
Meryl entered the storage with caution. She was a little nervous and she had even gotten used to the action. It must be me worried about Dave she
would think to herself. She began scanning for information through the drawer's and files. An occasional worker would come by and she would have to bury herelf in the shadows and take them down with a quick snap of the
neck or any other means. She continued to look through the countless
folders for any word on the Trade route but found absolutly nothing.
Snake snuck in the offices with his carboard box technique and then knocked
out the office worker with a quick punch to the side of the neck. The
worker was out like a rock before he hit the floor. Snake took out his silencer from one of his pockets and attatched it to his Socom. He searched
through documents and folders through many cabinets and drawers but had found nothing yet. He kept moving on each time unsucessful and not any more close till the last time. He searched and taken out countless folders and
interrogated workers, but to no avail.
Finally, after she had been looking and hiding all this time she finally found the "Confidential" folder containing the maps and documents of the Metal Gear Fox trade route. It looked as though the island were selling off
the Fox stealth unit to China and any other smaller merchant. The maps
showed the ships routes and time's they would leave and exchange goods.
Meryl quickly stuffed the folder into the small bag she carried.
She made her way to the darkest and most hidden area of the warehouse to
call Snake and tell him the news. She crouched behind some shelves that
were over by the corner with no light.
"Snake, Do you read me?"
".... Yeah what's the news?"
" I found the documents.. It looks like their selling Fox units off to
China and other third world countries."
" Okay.. Meryl I'll meet you over just outside of the warehouses your in."
Snake snuck his way and out of the offices. He made his way past several
guards and units before he reached the warehouse's. They met behind a different row of tall bush's that lined the back end of the warehouse they
would be meeting.
"Snake I got the document's"
"Where at?"
"In this bag of mine here.. come on Snake mission complete!"
"Good job I didn't find anything but finance and sticky notes." Snake
sighed.
"Well we got what was needed now lets get out of here"
Meryl took a step out from the bush's and was spotted by a Fox unit. An instant alarm went off and the Fox stealth unit started shooting Towards
Meryl. Snake grabbed her and pulled her aside to the edge of another
building.
"I'm okay Snake" She said startled.
"Damn, We're outnumbered here. We're gonna need a quick escape fast! Call Max and tell him to ready his boat at the exact same point as the insertion
point."
Meryl tried contacting Max and recieved a signal. Snake was busy fighting the Fox unit's off from all sides. He quickly popped out and shot a grenade
at one and shot as many through the camera like he was informed.
"Snake.. He's on his way" Meryl yelled over the gunfire while shooting the
Fox units from the other direction..
" Let's move out!" Snake took off running with Meryl close behind. A missle
blast took the whole corner soon after they decided to run off.
He gave Meryl a boost over the fence quickly. Bullets were kicking up dirt all around their area. Nonguided missle's from the Fox unit's would lazily
explode past or around where they were. Meryl returned fire through the
fence as much as she could while Snake made his way over. Snake grabbed
Meryl, and ran off through the woods..
Tree's occasionally fell from being ripped apart from gunfire from the Fox
unit's. They were close behind.... Missles were still flying past them
hitting very close.. A grenade round would occasionally take a unit out while they were running and if not they would spray in hopes that one would
do the damage.
The fighing continued and they had been running from the base for fifteen
minutes now and the unit's just kept coming. They finally reached their
destination where Max was waiting to pick them up.
"Holy Shit!" Max said startled at the appearance of the horde of Fox units.
Snake and Meryl hopped into the boat and returned steady fire while the
boat took off. They were finally home free with the documents and all..
"Snake I don't want to ever go on a sneaking mission that ends up like that
again"
"I agree. That ended up more of a suicide mission" Snake sighed now sitting
down relaxed.
"We'll let Otacon evaluate these documents and we'll see if anything else
needs to be done around."
Snake and Meryl headed back to Hawaii and took an Airplane back to their hometown. On their way home they stopped by to give Otacon the documents
and then back to the apartments to catch some shuteye and some well
deserved relaxation.
