"What's it going to be then, eh"
I shook my head, coming out of the daze. I had been staring off into space, a bit preoccupied with thoughts of why the Higher Ups in the SHC wanted to talk to me personally. I was one of the few male Sneakers. Not a big thing, it's just that the females around me were built well for sneaking...They were built well in other terms too, but I can digress on that one for 'other' fictional works.
"Number 716, you have been asked a question!" the large grey squirrel barked at me. I thought for a moment, "A covert operation sir? Won't the Tediz realize I'm a squirrel? And wouldn't they find it odd that they wouldn't have seen me until then?" I asked. Needless to say, I was considerably worried. I heard some pretty nasty horror stories about what Tediz did to the enemies. And those weren't even the prisoners. No one would even mention what the Tediz did to their prisoners.
"Our informants on Teddy civilization and war tactics show us that they are still primitive. They overcome an enemy in number, and not skill. So they probably wouldn't think twice about seeing someone they didn't know. As for matching you with Teddy uniform? That can be done easily. The newer more evolved Tediz are more living in appearance. And the older "Bedside" model is extinct. We'll have the boys whip you up a good costume. One problem. If you accept this mission? Your going to have to lose the tail." The squirrel warned me in a dark tone like I was going to be told to lose my man pieces. And yes, that's what it would have almost been like. I had had so many cute squirrels come up to me at the bar wanting to touch my long, hairy tail, and who would turn down that kind of attention? And now, I would have to lose it?
"Your country would be indebted to you." the squirrel reminded me. I had been in the service for years now, and would have taken a bullet for the race of my squirrel bretheren.
"Alright, I'll take the mission. How am I to infiltrate the Tediz unit?" I asked, crossing my arms over my chest. I still wasn't sure how I was just going to sneak behind enemy lines of a race that was easily as mean and aggressive as any tasmanian devil, or pissed off cog.
"Glad you asked son. Here are the plans" he said handing some papers to me. The papers had a sketch of a fort, with a path leading up to the front, and a tunnel leading out underneath the fort, going out the front way, "The Tediz will attack from the front. While our men are firing at them, and holding them back, you will disguise yourself, and exit through this tunnel, and come up behind them. Using stolen Teddy weaponry, you will fire at our men, and act as though you are the enemy. Become one with the enemy. You will infiltrate the base they send you to, and relay any information from them to us, using this.." the squirrel said, tossing a silvery watch to me.
"A watch? I'm supposed to send you information through a watch?" I said arching a brow to the somewhat bulky looking timepiece.
"That's not just any watch son. That's a two-way frequency watch, comm device, and radio. Any kind of information on the War at the moment you can access through this. You need to make sure they don't find out what it can do though. This is new technology, and those primitive assholes would love to get their mitts on it." he growled.
I strapped the watch to my wrist, making sure it had a rather lovely fit, "Right...Any information will be passed back sir. When does the attack be"
I was cut off as the sound of crashing overhead. Somewhere in the distance I could hear a hissing language being screamed through a loudspeaker. The sound of bombers and tanks rolling could be heard, penetrating the air.
"You begin now, son. Suit up. Your going into the wolves den."
To be Continued...
Well, this is my first Conker Bad Fur Day fan fic. In case if no one knows, the title "A Clockwork Squirrel" is in referance to a book by Anthony Burgess called "A Clockwork Orange" and Kubrik had a movie rendition of the book. The story will contain elements and themes from the book, which I suggest you read if you want to dabble in some good reading. Anyway. This will be finished soon, hopefully.>>
