CAPTAIN PINEDA: CHAPTER 10: Texas Strong
It was starting to become spring, the snow began to melt a little. Captain Pineda woke up on the log. "Holy…" Captain Pineda began. Oh yeah, I here. Man why couldn't command allow us to launch this mission in the spring, instead we had to do it in the winter. Captain Pineda thought to himself. His squad was still asleep. Captain Pineda started checking his equipment. Everything good, we should live until evac arrives. He got up from the log and said, "Hey wake the fuck up!" Captain Pineda shouted. He intended to wake up his squad, he possibly woke up some people of Jackson.
His squad got up from the camp and started picking up. "Sir, did you have to yell that loud?" Allen asked while picking up his tent.
"Shut the fuck up, Sargent Allen, I don't know how else to wake you up. Reinforcements will be here soon, that's our ride." Captain Pineda informed his squad.
It had been about 3 hours later. The transport helicopters had arrived, they're three of them. They were big helicopters, not meant to fight, just to transport troops. They landed outside of the gate. Twenty soldiers emerged from each helicopter. Sixty in total. The gate remained open for the troops to make their way inside. "There's our ride" Captain Pineda said.
They made their way to one of the helicopters. A pilot walked out of the ramp of the transport helicopter and said, "Where do think you're going?" Captain Pineda looked confused. "New orders, you and your squad are going to be stationed here. And give this to Tommy" the pilot handed Captain Pineda a piece of paper.
The 60 soldiers had walked into the Jackson. They all went into rows of 15 (4 rows). The soldiers were in the rows with their same soldier variation. The first variation is the Assault, they look very similar to the Captain's squad. Some of the Assault soldiers wore their gas mask. The next that came was the Tactical. Looking very similar to Battlefield 4's "Engineer", the main difference is the fact that on the hat had the Texan flag. Tactical soldiers, carry either, an M4 Carbine, MP5, or a tactical shotgun. Equipment is very similar to the Assault, the main key difference is the fact that they carry a RPG with them, replacing their melee weapon. In the 3rd row was filled with Support soldiers, also looking very similar to Battlefield 4's "Support", the difference would have to be the fact that the Texan Flag replaces the U.S. Carrying an M249 LMG. And finally the last one, Recon/Scout. Looking again similar to Battlefield 4's "Recon". Instead of having face paint, most had a bandana covering half of their face. Carrying the following weapons, majority of then would carry an M14 rifle, or a M4 Carbine.
Tommy came outside to watch. "Look what we got here" Tommy said. Captain Pineda gave the piece of paper to Tommy, Captain Pineda didn't bother to read it. "General of the Jackson Texan Army Encampment. What do think of that, Captain?"
Captain Pineda grabbed the piece of paper from Tommy's hand. And read it, "I don't know what to say, I've never seen someone start at such a high rank." Captain Pineda said.
2 out of the 3 helicopters had left. The 3rd one was meant to transport Ellie to the Capital. The same pilot that had told Captain Pineda to inform Tommy of his promotion, walked into the Jackson. "Where is the immune, Ellie?" the pilot said. Ellie stood there and watched, and then made her way to the pilot. "Ellie?" the pilot asked.
"Yes sir." Ellie responded. "Come with me" the pilot said.
Captain Pineda looked and saw the helicopter lift off and make its way back to the Capitol. Man that's going to be a long ride. Well doesn't matter, I'm going to be here for some time. He thought to himself. He starred at the helicopter until he wasn't able to see it anymore.
"Something wrong, Captain?" Tommy asked.
"No, nothing sir." Captain Pineda responded.
Tommy started to assign his troops to jobs most were assigned to the wall. The remaining 15, who happened to be the Recon platoon, were sent to the dam to protect it.
Captain Pineda and his squad were assigned to stay and patrol Jackson. Mason, the gate guard, was promoted by Tommy. Mason became the commander of all gate related missions, such as patrols, searches, authorizing missions outside the gate, and leaving the gate and entering the gate. Mason's uniform didn't change much, he just change his under shirt, one that had the Texan Flag on the sleeves.
It had begun to get dark. Captain Pineda made his camp in the same place, so did other additional soldiers. I'm going to be here for a long time. He told himself and fell asleep.
