S.O.E.
August 20th, 1942
Logan Walker
Near Argentan, French S.S.R.
The sun was setting when Logan, along and his squad and the SOE agents, Gideon and Vivian, arrived at the station where the Soviet armored train was refuelling.
"Reminds me of the time we parachuted into Vercor. Ambushed that Soviet patrol." Vivian said, making conversation.
"You're just an old romantic." Gideon replied.
The team stopped at the edge of a hill, Looking down at the Soviet train.
"Alright, there's our target." Gideon said, looking at Logan.
"Hey, you gotta give those commies some credit, train's right on time." Rorke joked.
"Biggest train I've ever seen. Thickest armor too." Logan said
"We call them the 'T-100'. Those M-13's Have a range of 200 miles, More than enough to hit Paris and Berlin. We can't let it reach the launch site." Vivian replied.
Suddenly Rorke started shushing as Soviet troops passed by below. "Enemy movement up ahead."
"Alright, Vivian and I Will take them out. Merrick, that will be your signal to advance." Gideon stated as he and Vivian began moving, armed with suppressed M3 Grease guns.
"Logan, since you and David were so gung-ho at Marigny, you'll provide them with fire support." Merrick ordered. "Alright, let's go!"
Logan cocked his Grease gun and followed Rorke and Merrick.
"Suppressors on." Rorke ordered.
Logan and his squadmates did so, except Keegan, who was armed with a De Lisle sniper rifle, which had a suppressor integrated into it.
"Take out the sniper. Use your knife, Logan." Whispered Gideon.
Logan carefully snuck up behind the Female Soviet with a Mosin-Nagant sniper rifle. When he was close enough, he grabbed her by the helmet stabbed her in the neck and placed her body behind a log.
"Well done, Logan." Praised Vivian.
"Now the officer. On your go."
Logan aimed at the officer in the truck and shot him in the head, startling the two soldiers that were standing next to the truck and were quickly picked off by Gideon and Vivian.
"Brilliant shot." Vivian praised again.
The team started moving again.
"Merrick, take a few soldiers and-." Gideon was cut off by the train's whistle going off.
"Gideon! Train's leaving!" Shouted Merrick.
"No, no, no! It's too soon!." Yelled Vivian.
"We can't let it get away!" Gideon shouted.
The soldiers stormed the station and cleared it of Soviet occupants.
"Logan, get the door!. Merrick ordered.
Logan opened the door only to see one of the Tank cannon train cars firing its twin T-34 turrets.
"Look out!" Merrick shouted.
Logan fell backwards as the walls were ripped apart by the cannons.
"SHIT!"
Merrick ran past Logan and David almost did the same but turned back and helped his brother up.
"Logan, Get up!" He yelled.
"Everyone in the jeeps, now!" Ordered Rorke.
Logan and David ran up to one of the Soviet jeeps. David took the wheel while Logan manned the Dshk MG mounted on the back.
"Hold on!" David yelled as he gunned it.
Logan And David Followed the train in the Jeep.
"Pull up beside it!" Logan yelled.
Soviets started shooting at them.
"Light 'em up!"
Logan started shooting back at them.
"Coming up on the engine!" David Yelled.
A Soviet on top of the engine threw a grenade at them before being shot by David and falling onto the Jeep.
"I got it!" Logan shouted.
He Reached and grabbed the grenade and threw it away, but it exploded a second later causing David to lose control.
"Fuck! I can't STOP IIIIIIIIT!"
The Jeep swerved out of control and drove right in front the train.
"AHHHH! Jeep's coming apart!" Logan screamed.
"JUMP!" David yelled as he did so.
Logan jumped off the Jeep just in time as it caused the train to come up and off the rails taking it's entire load with it. However Logan had lost consciousness from the jump.
"Logan. Logan! LOGAN!"
"GAH! AH!" Logan gasped.
"Oh, thank god!" David exclaimed.
"David!"
"Holy shit! Did that just happen?!"
"Can't believe we made it."
"That's one for the books."
"Rorke might even get off our asses for five damn minutes."
(BANG!)
"LOOK OUT!" David Shouted as a surviving Soviet fired at them.
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!"
The Soviet was blindsided as he was impaled by a charging woman with a Bayonet attached to a German STG-44 assault rifle.
"Soviet scheisse." The woman said. "Please if you will, Follow me, I will take you to your squad."
"I'm sorry, who the hell are you?!" David Asked
"A friend, Now hurry!"
Logan and David Followed the woman through the train wreck to where the rest of the squad was. Elsa Immediately ran into her husband's arms and Embraced him.
A different woman with brown hair came up to Logan and the dark-haired woman. "Viva La Resistance" She said in french.
"Für Freiheit." (For Freedom) the other replied in German.
Gideon Walked up to the trio.
"I believe these men belong to you." The first woman said.
"Ah, I see you've met Maxis and Rousseau. Maxis is with the Gegenwehr, German resistance, Rousseau's with the Maquis, French resistance."
"She killed a Commie that was gunning for us." Logan replied.
"I Told you to try capturing them first." Gideon said, annoyed.
"And I told you I'm not interested in such a trial." Maxis replied.
Merrick ran up to them with Rorke behind him.
"I Thought we lost you boys. Look like you two did some damage."
"The train was supposed to be stopped, not destroyed." Rousseau said.
"Yeah, I'm sorry that uh, Things didn't go exactly as planned, but on the bright side, we just alerted every Goddamned Soviet outpost in the whole area, so we gotta get moving come on."
"Not until we finish the mission! Isn't that right, Major?"
"What Mission?" Merrick asked.
"A mission to Liberate Paris." Rousseau Replied.
