Chapter 2: Mecha sun.
Snake's POV.
So there I was, sitting on a truck fully loaded with rebel fighter, we were heading toward the war zone of the Middle East where command think that our mysterious CEO is. I thought it might be a bit of a challenge since there were highly trained mercenaries with Nano bots injected into their bodies so that's means…
Then a barrage of mortar fire erupts the ground into splintering ashes and craters, the rebel's fighters scramble out their trucks to engage the mercs. But the ill trained and under equip forces soon found themselves under heavy fire of the mercenaries's MG nest. Snake then utilize his age old experience to out flank and out maneuver the opposing force on both side.
Then there was the secret weapons of the mercenaries, the Gekko unmanned battle walkers, the rebels then are being slaughter like stake, Snake run across the houses but he soon been chase by the Gekkos, he ran into a house where one of the Gekko use its cable wire to tied him up accidentally reveal his true face is an hansome young man on his 40s, Snake continue to fire his AK 102 at the Gekko but it was a fruitless attemp to destroy the unstoppaple walkers. Snake ran up to the roof where he uses his OctoCamo to conceal himself from the Gecko while he uses a cardboard box to fool the walkers. The Gekkos ran up to the roof where it only sees a cardboard box and nothing else.
It soon realizes that Snake is gone and there's nothing else, it walk away leaving Snake to continue his mission. Snake use his earpiece to contact the other members of the dream team, "Guys I just got ambushed by a bunch of battle walkers, it looks like the target is around here somewhere." Snake informed his teammates. "Copy that, Snake make your way to the rally point with the back up team, they are waiting for you there, I'll assemble the coordinates for you, happy hunting and good luck." Replied Kiryu.
"Copy that, good luck to you too, Kiryu." Answered Snake. Then he continue his mission without the disguise since it was too badly shreded, he put on his gift from Dr Tokumitsu Yuhara, the solid eye, a device that looks like an eye patch but has multiple functions to help him accomplish his mission, and continue to move forward to his co-ordinates. He bypass some of the ruins in the town until, he see a Stryker IFV have just arrive with additional mercs, "Hm mm, looks like I'll need some help to bypass them." Snake thought to himself.
Snake continue to make his way to an underground safe house of the rebel where his shortcut to the rally point lies. He enter the bunker starts to navigate through the underground tunnels, the lights were just chumming and the entire place is shaking to the constant barrage of artillery above, Snake suddenly overheard the conversation between two fighters, "Is that the same thing again?" one of the fighters asked, he seems to be frightening, "Yeah, and this time they can shoot at you, too." The other replied, "The same four freaky looking things again?" the other asked as he inspected the robotic wing. "Uh-huh, they are killing us to pieces one by one, I don't think we're gonna last long enough pal."
The conversation end when Snake gave the two a dose tranquilizer pistol, Snake then take picture of the wing to send back for HQ to analysis. He then continues to make his way to the rally point. Then he overheard another conversation between another groups of rebel fighter. "Hey is this the gun that you can shoot?" one asked.
"Yep, this one I can shoot even when its belongs to the enemy."The other answered, "I thought their guns are all security ensure." The other replied. "Not unless you bring it to the gun launderer in the building up on the road." The other answer. Snake then moves up top to the where the fighters just mention. He went up the stairs and found an Arabian carpet with guns on it, the middle one is an M468 the fame assault rifle of the US military.
He see a monkey wearing a golden underpants sitting in front of him, then he heard a voice, "Whoa, hey watch where you point that thing." The voice seems to be of a cool talking man, the man steps out from the dark corner where his customized Stryker IFV lies with a line on its sides, the line says 'Eye have you'. "I'm a gun launderer, but you can me Drebin number 013."
Drebin introduce himself to the old agent, Drebin is an African-American by birth, he has Blondy silk hair and wears glasses with style. "Drebin? AH, so you're the gun launderer that general Morgan was talking about." Said Snake. "OOOOH, then I guest you're my well served customer from the dream team. Which mean I'm gonna make the first merchandise for ya to be, free of charge.", Snake was thinking that maybe this Drebin is not a mere simple arms dealers like in the rest of the world, maybe he's an agent of the MAA sent to assist his team. "So you think you can make this gun naked of ID so I can use."
"Sure just give the good girl a squeeze." Then Snake pull the trigger but there was a click instead of bang.
"Weird, now I get it you still got the last gen Nano-machine in you that's meaning your ex-US army. But don't worry I could help with the ID problem." Drebin then bring Snake into his APC, where Drebin gave Snake a dose of Nano-machines suppressor. "All right, step outside brother." Drebin and Snake come out of the APC; Snake fire the rifle with a successful bang.
"See, I could strip the ID you got with guns and give you counterfeit to fool the System, which mean you get to fire any guns that you want but, that'll cost you, you can earn points by simply collecting goods on the battlefield and some cool firearms for me. And remember, eye have you." Drebin drive out of the wear house in his APC, leaving Snake to continue with extra firepower. Snake got up to streets, he ran into a building where he nearly escapes with his life, the building was collapsing fast. He jumps to safety, where he saw a barrel with a man inside. "What away to hide."
Snake comments, then a militant walk up to it then knock it over to reveal a government spec-ops operator, but a rather blundering one, he is been by militiant across the streets, while Snake follow behind. Snake tails the blundering goofball all the way to the safe house where his rally point is. Snake go into the building; he walks up the stairs to a room where he heard some arguing is going on. Snake open the door and wrestling the blundering idiot to the floor where he saw an entire team of special force from across the world.
"Hold it, who are you? Wait, are you Suneku Itaru?" asked the female commander, she was amazed to see her idol. "Yep, and you must be the back up team."Replied Snake. "Commander Akane Yashiro, we're RAT PATROL 01. Of the CID (Criminal Investigation Department)." replied Akane. "Yeah, I know you, Kiryu told me about you." with only that statement, Akane was stunned to find out that her MechaGodzilla that she uses to fight along side with years ago is still around. "Wait, Kiryu is still…" she asked him in disbelief. "Yeah, he is still alive and kicking, he is around this area somewhere." answered Snake, Akane was overjoy that Kiryu is still around, for she have a secret feeling for the strong Mecha that she doesn't want anybody to know. "Akiba!" she shouted at her clumsy geek kid. He hastily stands up to apologized, "Oh, i'm sorry commander, i'm so..." before he can finish, he got puch in the face by Akane and fell onto to the ground, again.
Moments later, Akane briefs Snake on the situation in the Middle East warzone, "It's been two days eversince the mysterious CEO arrived in the warzone, since then this woman was sighted with him. She doesn't look like a combatant, probably an advisor or scientist." Snake look at the woman in the photo, she has long black silky hair running down her back, with brow eyes and white skin, Snake knows her a long time ago, but its a secret that he kept to himself. "Let me introduce you to the team, that's Eddy our radio man and sniper, the sleeping giant is Jonathan." Jonathan wakes up and reveal his hair seems to shave to a surprise mark. "Don't go behind him, he hates it when people gone around to his back. And finally, Johnny." Johnny comes back into the room, he wears a balaclava mask with shades. "Commander, i'm done with installing the sensors." Johnny reports. "Very well Akiba." Akane said frustrateadly.
"Anyway..." Snake was rather impressed that everybody he used to know are now grow ups. "Someone taught me well, a certain legendary hero who suddenly dissappeared? You quit the unit, but me, i never gave up on you or on the EDF. Back then i just wanted you to accept me. I wanted you to turn around and see who i was.
But i put the past behind, i'm done playing little love games." Snake then stand up and thinking about what he had done, he started to doubt about the decisions he made. "So waht are you here for?" She asked him.
"Threats assesment, the PMCs." he replied. "Really, i heard there's a rumor out there that an assassin is targeting their leader." She replied, Akane started to doubt Snake's true intention.
"Well... that's some rumors. I'm only here because the UN wants to assess the impact and effect of PMCs on their refugee protection effords." Akane was surprise to hear this. "That's all?" she asked him. "More than enough for a retired vet like me." Snake excuses himself.
"I know he's plotting an insurrection. As long as AT's Security System is still in place, he won't succeed." Snake doubted about this so called "The System".
"They've implemented a system that monitors in real-time. Everysingle soldiers engaged in combat whether he's state army or PMCs. Each individual soldier have full ID-tagged with nanomachines injected into their bodies for that purpose.
The nanomachines keep track of the soldiers and their real time personal data, 24 hours a day. They monitor each man's position, movement, speed, reserves ammo, firing accuracy, wounds, rations, water intake, and supply, sweat secreted, heart rate, blood pressure, and sugar levels, oxygen. All the data gathered on their body condition, on sensory organ data showing pain and fear.
Data on every enternal response within their body all are collected by an AI at the System's core. This data is monitor at HQ to enable command to make quicker and more rational, more precise decisions.
It also enables crisis management of each individual soldier, Its been use by the US miltary, by state armies in allied countries, by PMCs, even police agencies are starting to adopt it. Unless they agree to implement the system, the PMCs aren't allow to send troops anywhere."
"You got those nanomachines in you too, right?" he asked her.
"Of course. Our unit plays by the rule just like any one else. At first it's creepy to being watch on 24/7. But i've gotten use to it, give us a lot of advantage in the field, too. We get clearer picture of what's going on around us and less confusion during missions. And our nanomachines communicates with each other, making team work a lot smoother. And that's not all the System does for us. It's also a security guarantee against the PMCs."
"Security guarantee?" he asked her doubtedly.
"That's right. The PMCs are combat groups without a states or ideologies. They're not fighting out of nationalism or for a cause. They're just don't care about the war being fought. They're being bodies fighting for someone else behalf.
They're mercenaries. A commodity. So it's easy to see them betraying their clients by join the enemy or refusing to fight or commiting humanitarian atrocities.
To keep these things in check, they ensure that no one is allow to use firearms, military vehicle without the proper system ID. It's true to every piece of equipment out there so even if the PMCs are mouting a terrorist attack or coup d'etat. Their weapons and equipment would be automaticly locked out.
They wouldn't be able to move or engage in combat of any kind. All the data on their position, personnel and combat strength is leaked to us by the nanomachies. Even if they manage to circumvent the System by removing the nanomachines out of each soldier's body they'd be loosing their ID in the process so they couldn't use their weapons." Then Snake remembered how DREBINS could laundered ID guns into naked guns, he knows that even if SOP is foolproof, there's always a way for someone to take control of it.
"So who sent you here?" she asked him nicely. "Hayato Igarashi." he replied to her, then she was enrage by that truth. "HIM?" she shouted at him. "You didn't know?" he asked her confusingly. "I can't believe that you work for him! He didn't even keep me informed on Kiryu. It's like he doesn't want me to get close to Kiryu." her voice now feels with sobber. "Akane. Kiryu threw himeself down into the bottom of Tokyo trench to save you back then, he did that to keep you safe from harm. It's the past now. We have to deal with the present." Then Ed comes to check his radio, he founds 20 hostile contacts. "Commander, we have contact, there's 20 of them, and they're not from PMCs or Praying Mantis either. It's the FROGS." Akane was stunned to hear this. "Were you being follow?" She asked Snake, but he shake his head in a no motion. "Maybe they saw the reflection of my scope lents." Akiba said. And everybody look at him with hostile eyes. "Wait you guys think this is my fault?" he protest for his innocent, Akane slaps him across his left cheek. "Dumb ass! We're moving out. I'll fill you in if we're still alive." Then the FROGS are at the Advent Palace where the Rat Patrol team and Snake are.
"Akane we gotta move fast, it looks like the FROGS just found us." then everybody run out of the building to escape the all female spec-ops but a firefight ensure, "All right people, we got living breathing legend here with us, so fight hard and stay close, don't let Snake disappoint us too easily! And that goes double for you Akiba!" Akane motivates her team to fight hard with Snake so they can escape, with the FROGS jumping from one place to another with amazing acrobatic skills. Snake give cover fire while Akane Yashiro lead her team to the basement, to think that their safety is secure but another groups of FROGS was waiting for them there. Snake is the first lucky witness to see Akane's team in action, her sharp shooting skill with the help of the Nano machines has enables her teams to line up shots with deadly precision.
"Suneku, you're once my idol that pushes me forward, now that you're here with Kiryu, I'll be more than happy to assist your mission." Akane said proudly to Snake.
"Akane, i'm no hero, never was and never will. I'm just an old grunt, hired to do some wet work. The hero that you knew is gone, dead. All are just the past. Everything i ever did to saved the world from terror and destruction are all just trophy without a pride moment in them, i never have a family to gave me a life of a normal child, but only war and conflicts have cost me my entire wishes and dreams." Snake replied to Akane, her face seems to be sadden.
Snake gave out a smirk on his face and tell Akane that he needs her team to follow him to a location that the PMCs are packing up their stuffs. Snake sneaked to the assembly area where he saw a silver looking Mecha with Godzilla-like spine and a short tail with golden optics, it has some resembling to Kiryu but not the machine dragon that Snake is working with, "Activate it." the mecha said and then he witness the mercs there just suddenly to get head ache, and then they starts to getting pain from the inside. Snake ran up to the figure to pull the trigger of his favorite Five-Seven pistol, unfortunately the mecha has got away on a VTOL jet-helos. Snake then got knock unconscious by a merc.
