Flippy rushed home that time, running to the table he had been writing at. He immediately thrust it pen onto the paper, for once getting right down to business....

The next morning, everyone waited in their tents for Stone to come in and give them direction. He came in with a map of the area they were inflitrating. There were two main areas, the first was the surrounding area of the stone, heavily gaurded building. Howell, Rodriguez, Johnson, Shen, and Slash were to be posted in specific places, so that every part of the target area could be observed. The second, obviously, was the stone building itself, where Red, Eyes, Flippy, Ritsuko, and Mike were going to inflitrate the building.

Then, once they were in, Red and Mike were going to blow up the ammunition in the storage area, then the food storage unit, and Flippy, Ritsuko, and Eyes, were going to work together to choreograph the assassination of Dunh Li' and Xian Liam. They didn't know who those men were, or why it was important for them specifically to die, but that was the way it had to be, and they didn't for an instant question it.

Stone explained at length to each person what they're job was, until nobody had any unanswered questions. Apparently, Flippy was supposed to take out Xuan Liam, while Eyes was supposed to take out Bao Dunh Li'. Ritsuko was there to simply provide backup for them both. Howell, Rodriguez, Johnson, Shen, and Slash, were all, as previously noted, placed in trees. Finally, at 0600 hours, they moved out in seperate groups, breaking up as necessary.

Flippy, Ritsuko, and Eyes hurried up to the side of the tall fence, looking for a way in. Ritsuko rolled her eyes as they hurried in big circles, looking for an opening, and pulled out her fiber wire. It wasn't something the army issued to her, but she had found it to be far more effective than knives in certain instances. She shoved them in a bush and hurried over toward a soldier, alone posted at a side of the gate. He immediately pulled his gun out to aim at her, but she raised her hands to show that she had nothing, and in that same movement, pulled up her shirt. The man grinned and lowered his weapon. Flippy and Eyes nearly fainted back in the bush, and Flippy's nose burst forward in blood while Eyes almost choked on the sip of his canteen he had been taking.

Flippy stopped to chuckle for a moment, remembering the absolute childish shock he had felt, but was quickly back to work. Today, he was in a hurry to simply get everything down. No distractions.

Ritsuko smiled and came toward him, reaching her hands out to put around his neck... And then pulled out the fiberwire, slipping it around the guy's neck and pulling it tight, pulling the guy with her into the bushes, choking silently, unable to make any noise, as it buried into his throat and finally, he suffocated. When Ritsuko came out of the bushes, she had changed into the soldier's clothes, and pulled the gun around her shoulder.

Then, she looked at Flippy and Eyes, hiding in the bushes, goggling, and winked. Then, she took the man's place where he had been gaurding, obviously expecting them to follow her example. However, they were not girls, so they wouldn't be able to disarm the other soldiers as easily.

Carefully, they snuck of to the other wall, where two soldiers stood gaurding. Flippy and Eyes only had knives, but they were fairly handy with them. Flippy thought for a moment, watching them, wondering how he would get to them without getting shot all to hell. Suddenly, he motioned to Eyes to copy him, and climbed up partway on the wall, climbing behind one guy. Then, the two of them, in perfect synch, shot a hand around the guy's mouths, silencing them, and then plunged their knives into the necks of the vietnamese men, and pulled it across, slitting their throats, and then tipped them backwards so as not to stain the clothes with blood.

After a quick trip to the bushes, the two soldiers came out dressed like the veitnamese men they had just killed. (Ha-ha, people died in those clothes!) Ritsuko nodded wen she saw them, and the three started into the building. They heard a loud explosion, and knew that Red and Mike's part had gone well. They had to hurry, though, as that meant they were a little late.

Flippy was the leader of their sub-group, and motioned for them to follow him. They found a door, unlocked, and walked in. They were met by a long hall. Stone's words from earlier flashed through Flippy's mind - ( You'll see a long hallway. There are four doors on the left side, two doors on the left, then another hallway, and more doors. On the right, the third door is where Liam and Dunh Li' will be. If they aren't there, DON'T LOOK FOR THEM. Call somebody outside, and they'll tell you what to do.)

Flippy nodded slightly to himself, and then motioned toward sed door. Ritsuko and Eyes ran ahead of him, posed to shoot, and Flippy hurried in and kicked open the door, all three simultaneously aiming their rifles. Two vietnamese men stood up immediately, and matched the description Stone had given. They all fired at the same time, and the men went down easily in a flurry of bullets. They looked at each other, relieved that it had gone easily. But they still had to get out. Flippy turned back the other way that they had come, running toward the door, pulling out his transmitter, calling into it,

" Shen!, over!"

" This is Shen. Over"

" McClane here, mission accomplished. Over"

"Alright, RTB. Over"

" Understood. Over and out."

"Over and out."

Flippy shoved it back into his camo jacket, and continued running, Eyes and Ritsuko close behind him, when a gunshot rang out.

"AHGHH!" Eyes cried, his leg flying out from under hi, spewing blood. Ritsuko turned and grabbed him by the arm, hauling him over her shoulder, and they kept running - apparently, the enem had seen through their disguise. That wasn't good. Flippy turned backwards, stil running, pulling out his gun and shooting at them, watching them fall. But as the ones in front fell, more came in the back.

He turned back around and finally reached the door, ripping it open - and was met with more soldiers. They had their guns pointed right at their faces. With a defeated sigh, Flippy raised his hands in surrender, and Ritsuko did as well as she could manage without letting go of Eyes. The men forced them to put their hands behind their heads. Flippy glanced past them, outside, and saw Shen and Johnson looking at them fearfully. Then Flippy glanced at Eyes, and realized that Eyes could easily die here if he didn' get out, and decided to sneak Eyes out.

He slowly motioned to his transmitter, and saw Shen and Johnson quickly turn their own on, and Flippy whispered into his carefully. They nodded their heads in acknowledgement, and suddenly screamed loudly outside. The vietnam soldiers turned around in surprise, and Flippy took action - he grabbed Eyes by the arm, pulling him up and in one smooth move, flung him outside the door, out of view of the vietnam soldiers, and Rodriguez grabbed up Eyes, who was completely confused, and ran off with him.

Flippy smiled as he watched his friend get away, but suddenly the Cong soldiers turned their attention on Ritsuko and Flippy, and tied their hands up at the elbow effectively, taking them to a torture room. Flippy glanced fearfully at Ritsuko, and for the first time, he saw tears welling up in her eyes in fear.

Flippy put down his pencil, looking out the window wistfully...

Yay, new chapter! :D
