Harry Potter and the New Threat
Chapter 2
Project Apocalypse
"Go! Go! Go!" One of the four-man crew of the chopper said as the light went green and James got up crossed the small distance of the chopper and garbed hold of the rope hanging from the side it. "Good hunting sir!" the chopper crewman yelled as James began his decent with Jonathan Daniels going down the right side rope. James hit the ground a full second before his comrade. He ran four steps from the rope and dropped to a knee and brought his M-16 up to his shoulder and scanned the area. In less than 30 seconds the team was down on the ground and the chopper heading for friendly area. James continued to sweep the barrel of his gun back and forth as he felt Lieutenant Dan undo his pack and pulled out the satellite radio. He tuned around and helped set it up and positioned it to find signal. "Ring master this is Sea Lion. We are on the ground and Hunting fish." Dan said and waited for a response. "Roger that Sea Lion happy hunting." A combat controllers voice came threw the other side." "Roger that Sea Lion out." Dan said and tore the small device back down and placed it back in James pack." "All right men standard formation six you are on point." Dan said and the team moved out in a semi-circle with James at the foremost part of the arc. They were currently in the middle of an unkempt field of a long abandoned farm. The wheat grown there was about chest high. The morning sun just beginning to show up over the in the distance you could see smoke rising from the Catholic and Protestant neighborhoods of Ulster in the distance. 'God why do we have to act like such animals.' James thought as the team advanced into a patch of woods. They halted for a brief moment to consult the map provided by a G.P.S satellite currently in a safe orbit above earth. They were about five miles away from the encampment outside of the town. It would be slow going from here out and the threat of discovery loomed nearer with each step. The soon set off again with Lieutenant Dan on point this time.
James looked threw a pair of binoculars from a ridge about 1000 yards away from the encampment. "Looks like Intel was way off this time?" James said and handed the binoculars to Lieutenant Dan. "I'll say there has to be about sixty down there." He said his Texas draw adding special attention to certain words. "So what the plan?" Johnny asked adjusting his high Powered rifle a little. He was probably the most camouflaged of them all with his kevlar vest hidden below a custom-made guile suite. He had an M-4 carbine strapped on as well. "Sorry but you won't get much of a chance to use that I'm afraid." Dan said. "Nathan did you pack any C-4?" Dan asked looking over to their resident demolition's expert. "Yeah I got enough to turn this place into a smoldering crater." He said patting a hip satual. "All right take Johnny and go plant it all around the perimeter and the barracks I'll come with." The lieutenant said and looked over to James and the two other men. "James you and Richard will go the camp find the hostages and move to the extraction zone upon retrieval we will link back up here. He pulled out his map and gestured to a place near the English Channel. Jonathan you set up here and give those two some covering fire odds are they'll have half of the camp after them on the way out. You have your assignments we go on silencers from here out let's go." He said and the men went about their assigned duties.
James and Richard made their way straight into the encampment. Both moving as quite as possible the silencers on the barrels of their guns would attempt to keep the guns quite if they had to shoot. The compound was quite a large build up of ramshackle huts with one large hanger in the middle and another off towards the south end of the compound for the troops. They made their way quietly to the middle hanger occasionally peaking into the small huts and makeshift shelters to find a few I.N.L.A (Irish National Liberation Army) or P.I.R.A soldiers obviously drunk judging by the bourbon bottles scattered around. As the two men made their way for the central complex Richard spook to James. "Hold here a minute." He said and He and James came to a halt. "What is it?" James said looking at the medic rifleman. "Is it just me or are the Provo's and the nationalists teamed up here. I thought that the tactics of the two were a bit different." Richard said as he peaked into another shelter. "Yeah it dose seam a bit odd. It's almost like someone has took over both organizations and stitched them together with bullets and booze." James said as he looked into the next building. Their wasn't anyone in it but their was a world map and a couple of filing cabinets and documents inside. "Hey I think I found something that might solve a couple of those questions of yours Rich let's check it out." James said stepping inside the building Richard followed close behind James stood as he came in and made shure the building was empty. James walked over to one of the filing cabinets and checked to see if it was unlocked and to his luck it was. He opened it and started flipping threw the files that were inside it. "Hey is it just me or dose it seam that the air is thick hear. I can fell it tingle on my face." James said before he put his flashlight in his mouth and continued his search. "No everything's normal for me it's probably just a bit of adrenaline I could give you something to relax you a little." Richard said as he studied the world map. "No it's not adrenaline I've felt it along time ago but I can't put my finger on as to what it is. Wait now what have we here?" James said as he pulled up a red folder with the words Project Apocalypse. "I don't know let's take a look at it." Richard said and pushed some papers off of the table to make room for it. They sat it down and opened the portfolio type folder. It was a detailed plan on how to over through the world powers including the U.S, Great Britain, France, Russia, Germany and the Swiss. And attacks ranged from standard assassination to nuclear strikes. And the assassinations included some people called prophets who were to be fitted with a focusing apparatus. Richard looked back at the world map. It was pockmarked with pins in all of the mentioned countries in particularly the capitals and major cities. "I think we just stumbled onto something a lot bigger than a hostage situation." Richard said as he produced his camera and took several photographs of the map. James got on his radio, "One this is Six I think me and five stumbled onto something." He said and waited for a reply. "Six this is one what is it." Lieutenant Dan's voice crackled over the radio. "We found out that the Provo's and the nationalists are under new leadership and have apparently been brain washed as the last line in the plan read the messiah has returned." "Pack it up and complete the mission six one out." The Lieutenant said and clicked off his radio. "All right pack it up and let's get the hostages." James said. It was about this time that a great shuffling was heard out side.
AN: hears the next chapter next time the bullets will fly. So here is a bit to stew on who is Messiah and his Prophets. What the fuck is a focusing apparatus? Who the hell is the transplanted yank James and wear's Harry for starters? Well maybe these questions will get answered next time. And thanks to all of those who reviewed.
