Fashionably Late
Chapter 14 of MGS Fanfiction
Written By FoxTrooth
The sun fell behind the tree canopies and the stretching rays soon dimmed out. It was time to get a move on so Snake climbed down the tree quietly and landed with a quiet roll. He knew once he got in there that the caked mud and grass on him would give him away or might even leave a dangerous sign that there is an intruder. Dave moved through that last tree thicked and came to a crawl through the grass. Even though it was at night Snake would still have to be cautious and stop every once in awhile so it wouldn't attract to much attention to his crawling.
Soon enough Dave made it too the wall yet came upon another problem and that was getting inside. Now that Snake got out of the view of a sniper's perch he would have to now get inside.
"But How?" he thought trying to think of a quick solution.
Suddenly an idea popped into Snake's head. He had the clothing and equipment of a guard after he escaped from captivity so he could walk in, however, the guards on the inside wore different camoflage then what he had on. Snake decided to give it a try and slapped the mask on. He readied his AK-47 and went towards the main front gates which were open to incoming transportation for goods. A good four guards stood at front gate watching the cargo trucks pass by.
Snake just came around them and walked past raising his hand in a short wave. They didn't seem to notice the difference but Dave would have to change outfits quick before someone does.
The bas on the inside was alot bigger then what he picked up from his bionoculars. Alot of brick buildings consisting of offices and barrack's lined the wall and on the other side which was several hundred yards to the other side was the large warehouses that were holding tanks and airplanes. The one large warehouse stood on the left hand wall of the base and the front was open to incoming trucks and vehicles. Snake took a quick look at it through his bionoculars and saw it to be a gigantic cargo elevator which must be carrying anything to an underground base.
Snake couldn't stand around much longer so he went in an office. It was holding one person and had polished wooden walls that matched the desks. Several pictures stood about reminding Dave breifly at his office back home in Philanthropy. On Snakes entry both an office clerk and a guard turned around to face a gudgy silenced pistol. Two shots muffled into both of their heads and sent the office clerk face forward on his desk and the guard slouched on the floor.
Dave dragged the clerk's body to a closet and locked it from the inside before closing it. Snake took the guards fresh clean outfit and discarded his old one. He locked the doors from the inside once again before leaving the small building.
"What are you doing?" One of the troops sternly asked Snake.
Remembering his Russian Snake replied,"They have some confidential buisness to talk about and asked me to leave and lock the door."
The guard looked at the closed door and then walked off mumbling to himself. Snake started pacing his way towards the other side of the base which was a nice long hike but caught a lift on the back end of a cargo truck headed in a convoy that direction. Most of the base had scattered guards and civilian looking people alike although it was very doubtful they were civilian but maybe off duty or an office worker.
Snake peeked inside the backend of the truck to look at it's contents. He saw various crates and noticed some new radios. Dave picked a fresh one up and started fidgeting with the frequencies to see if he could get a response. Normally it would be impossible to contact another frequency on the other side of the road using handheld radios but Philanthropy had several bases around the world and satellites that relayed information which made that part a reality.
"This is Solid Snake! Come In!" He yelled over the trucks in hope he would get some kind of response.
"ThIs iS SoLiD SnaKe!...cOme In!" the fuzzy signal came out the line in Philanthropy
The group working on a different mission stood back in shock as they heard this come through their lines. They stood there hearing the same message repeated a couple of times until one got shoved forward to reply.
"Ummm.. This is Philanthropy Group 21 Snake.." The employee shoved the other's to go get Otacon and Meryl quickly.
Snake almost fell off the back end of the truck because of his excitement. Dave requested for his wife Meryl and Otacon but found that they were already being searched down.
The truck arrived at the cargo elevator and snake boarded inside the truck where it was now quiet. Drivers left their vehicles in the cargo elevator for the night so they could continue work the next day. Dave decided to just sit back in the quiet now that he got a signal and he didn't have anywhere else to go as well.
Otacon sat at his desk doing his normal paperwork. He was about to retire for the night and bring his papers and laptop home with him. Hal was the only one in the room except for Mei Ling who was on the far side doing her mischievious hacking with her supercomputers. Her abilities were nothing but outstanding and all that fast typing chatter meant she knew what she was doing and fast. The elevator doors slid open and two men yelled across the room.
"We have a transmission from Snake in the Control Room!" Otacon jumped up knocking his chair over and ran to the elevator.
"Ling Call Meryl would ya!" Otacon blurted out
"Already on it!" Ling said running to the elevator getting her cellphone out.
"Hello. Hello? Meryl! Yeah get down here fast we got a transmition from Snake!" Ling tried putting her words together but it was just to exciting.
"Snakes alive Meryl!" Otacon squeeled out.
"Shut Up Hal I just told her!"
"Sorry Ling I'm just to excited to hear his voice." Hal faking his apology.
The elevator doors opened again and Hal ran to turn on all the PC's at their own booth kicking up dust everywhere. When they were up and operational Otacon and Ling set up their headsets, turned on the monitor, and redirected Snakes signal to that station.
Otacon bursting out,"Snake! Wow! I thought you were dead!"
"It's great to see you Snake!"Ling said.
"Hey, No I'm not dead I still have too many things I have to do first." Snake smiled, "Where's Meryl?"
"She's on her way Snake." Ling replied.
"Damn it's good to hear your voices again."
Otacon getting the one thing off of his mind,"Snake what happened to you we saw you get killed on satellite photos."
"It's a long story but I was taken captive and I busted out. Right now I'm in their main base."
"Jesus Snake! Your incredible."
Just as that was being said Meryl came running out the elevator to the booth to get to speak with her beloved.
"Snake! Snake! Oh Your Alive!"
"Of course I am you didn't give up on me while I was gone did you?" Snake asked testing Meryl's inner strength and faith.
"Snake, Meryl never gave up on you and she had faith in your return." Ling stated.
"Well while were all here I guess we can have a little chat and you can still fill me in on this crap. Such as if Liquid stiked or not and where is he?"
"We haven't seen any movement or attack of the base at all. We assume that he's waiting for something Snake because he has to be out there somewhere. That's where the signal ended but you know how unaccurate they are."
The group got once again reunited and talked on what they both had though of Snake's captivity. Snake told the stories of his captivity and his adventures of the jungle and of course they weren't over yet. Dave decided to speak with them until daylight and he get carried down the cargo elevator. What will Snake encounter and what will Otacon inform more to Snake in the next Chapter 15 of MGS Fanfiction!
