Episode IV

The sky became light blue as a sing of day, the sun gleamed down upon the 3 degree temperature, frozen city. The snow light up very bright in the sun light.

In Downtown Los Santos, near Ammu-nation, 14 Russian soldiers patrolled one block of the city. They each walk around like robots, glancing in every direction, following a permanent route. A few hours had passed since the invasion, the gunfire has stopped.

One Russian stood at the door to a book shop, along a street that lead directly into ammu-nation. A large car wreck made the store not visible from their position. He walked in, and looked for the adult book section. He found it and smiled.

A sudden crash made him jump in alert, grabbing his FA-MAS, he was ready to shoot. He let out a short scream as blood splashed out of his body, and pain drew across his chest, where his clothes tore, as if a blade struck him. He fell to his knees ground, which was now splashed with blood. He gasped, then his upper chest exploded in blood as he was attacked again, this time spinning to the ground, dead.

Outside, snow began to fall heavier than before. The brightness from the sun on the snow was almost blinding. Only the shadow from the buildings protected from this. Many of the soldiers wore shades.

A Russian soldier patrolled a sidewalk. The sound of footsteps caught his attention. He looked ahead of him, in disbelief as footprints appeared in the snow out of no where. It that instant his leg was pierced by an invisible blade, the snow turned red. He fell to the ground, in agony as his leg was sliced in half, screaming. His head then was smashed into the ground, a hole drawn through it. He was dead.

Other soldiers stared at the man who just died. One yelled, "Oh-my-I-uh. Ghost!" he screamed, running away as the rest did. His chest exploded, pierced by the invisible blade, he fell down into the snow. One by one they were picked off, in a bloody attack.

One man shot at where the last man had been killed. The bullets sparked into the air, as they were seemingly deflected. It got close to him, and a force made him trip foreword, his body split in half as he fell to the ground. It was a bloody sight.

Band Of Brothers

Eventually the entire group arrived, standing around, looking at Claude, who had an outburst of anger.

The cold seemed to keep getting magnified, Vercetti hated it, the coldness. He like the tropical weather. Like in his dream, of being surrounded by girls, at his mansion is sunny vice city. That was now gone, he awoke upon Nicks back to coldness, unhappiness.

CJ put her down. In the snow. By this time Claude had calmed down, Max was talking to him, whispering, while the others stood a few feet away, studying each other.

Claude shook his head, as he and max talked, or well, as Claude listened. Vercetti stood lightly clothed, hugging himself. He shivered, and felt like he was going to faint.

Tommy realized he was unarmed. He needed a weapon on him a all times, it made him feel comfortable.

Nobody talked for a long time. Finally Max and Claude returned to the group. "Well, I think-" Max was cut off by an ear shattering scream.

"What was that?" Vercetti asked. More screams were heard, followed by gunshots, and what sounded like bullets ricocheting. A few minutes passed, it was gone.

Snake, whispered to Mr. Kennedy, "You thinks that's it? Him?"

Nick Kang overheard, "What was that?"
"Nothin, just business." Snake replied, smiling through his mask, which was keeping his face warm.

"Okay." Mr. Kennedy replied.

"We're gonna go check out what those screams were, anybody who wants to come, come." Snake announced, everyone walked up, except for Payne, and Claude, who were moving her body into a building.

Snake, Mr. Kennedy, CJ, Nick Kang, and Tommy Vercetti started off over the rubble and crashed cars. As they climbed over it, a snow-covered street was revealed, bodies everywhere, not only of civilians, but torn up soldiers too. Torn up.

"Holy hell." Vercetti blurted.

At least 12 soldiers bodies were laying in oversized blood puddles in the snow. One man lay in two halves, across the street, another with no arms, one with no head, it just went on and on.

"He's nearby." Snake said.

"Who?" Nick asked.

"I- see you!" a voice shouted out, which made everyone except Mr. Kennedy and Snake shiver. The voice sounded, deep, but altered, by a microphone, or something electronic. At the same time it sounded almost like it echoed, a scratchy voice, raspy.

"Everybody get back." Snake ordered. CJ, Vercetti, and Nick stepped back. "You too, Leon." He nodded his head.

Snaked scanned the area thoroughly, knowing what he was looking for, knowing, that he was right in front of his eyes.

Tommy looked over a dead body, a hole in his chest. "Nick, come here. Does this look like a sword did it?"

"I think so…" Nick murmured.

"Your weapon is useless!" The voice said again.

"We'll see about that!" Snake smiled again, grabbing a grenade off of his vest, having his left hand over his SOCOM customized, silenced pistol.

"Hough!" In slow motion, someone screamed out.

Snake pulled the pin, dropping the grenade where he stood, pulling out his SOCOM he shot in the direction to the right of him. He bullets seemed to hit air, ricocheting, as Snake dove to the left, shooting at where he stood before.

CJ, Vercetti, Nick, and Leon ran across the street, to watch from a safe distance.

A light appeared, an orange circle, which seemed to be floating. Snake was still emptying his clip, shooting at it, where he stood before, where he dropped the grenade.

Suddenly, for a split second, a man appeared, where Snake dropped the grenade, he was wearing a blue/red suit, and orange light upon his head, then he jumped up, and was gone. Followed by the explosion of the grenade.

Snake rolled back as an invisible katana hit the ground, Snake nearly dodging it. Equipping his M4, Snake readied himself, staying still, as the action temporarily stopped.

"Stealth camo, same as always? You to scared to show yourself?" Snake asked the air.

"Not at all, Snake!" He laughed. A figure appeared in front of him, bearing a katana. He wore a red and blue, alternating in color, exoskeleton suit. His face was visible.

"So it is you, Fox!"

"Yes."

"What do you want?"

"I think you want me!"

Sakes face went blank. "What? How would you know?"

Fox laughed. "I will try to kill you first, if you survive, I will help you."

"You're on crack man!" Tommy yelled out.

"Does it have to happen like this every time?" Snake asked him.

"You need to earn it Snake."

CJ, Nick, and Vercetti stood there, trying to comprehend what was going on. It was too weird for them. They didn't know enough, they needed to know more, why this was happening, were does this come it?

Snake screamed as he wasted a clip, shooting at the ninja, every bullet was deflected, as only the ninja's arm moved, so fast you couldn't even see his katana deflect the bullets.

"Damn!" Snake yelled, throwing down his weapons.

"You knew that wouldn't work, snake. Good idea, hand to hand, it is the basis of all combat, only a fool trusts his life to a weapon."

Snake put up his fists. Fox jumped at him, Snake dodged it, Fox punched the ground, so hard that it displaced the snow. He then jumped up, doing kicks, two hit Snake, and made him fall down.

Fox punched at him, Snake rolled along the street, dodging Fox's punches into the ground.

After he was tired, Snake jumped up and gave him a few punches to the stomach. Fox grabbed Snakes, neck, holding him in place, and punched him in the stomach over 15 times. Snake was out cold.

Fox threw him down.

"Over there!" A soldier yelled. A large M1 Russian tank drove into the scene.

"Damn it! Everyone down!" Vercetti ordered. "Tank!"

Max and Claude entered, climbing over the rubble. "Get down!" Tommy shouted again.

"I'll take care of this, you fools stay back!" Fox ordered.

"YYYYEEEAAHHHH!" the Russian solder yelled, firing the M60 mounted on the tank. Fox dodged each bullet, took out his Katana, and jumped upon it, chopping off the mans head. With his sword, he attacked the Tank. The katana pierced it's armor, Fox stabbed it two times and slashed it multiple times.

He jumped off of it, after a few seconds, it exploded, sending more debris throughout the road.

"I'll see you later." Fox said, jumped off into the distance, he disappeared.

"What the heeeelllll?" Vercetti blurted out

"Man, this shit is fucked up!" said CJ. They picked up Snake, and continued into the building that Claude's wife was in, near Ammu-nation.

A/N: Sorry if that one seemed a little weird, don't worry, nothing else that weird will happen through the rest of the story…
