Janelli and Marron were sleeping peacefully in their tent. Janelli saw a light outside the tent and took a look outside. He saw Captain Henderson standing right next to him.
"Justin, get Kevin up. General Dean wants us to meet him at the "Faggot Tent" as he likes to call it."
"Ugh…yes sir…" Janelli said wearily. He turned over to Marron who was snoring in his sleeping bag.
"Dude, wake up. General Faggot wants us to do another mission." Janelli said.
"Wake me up in five minutes…" he replied, half asleep. Janelli just looked at him and slapped him across the face.
"Ok ok…jeez…"
They got ready and went outside their tent and saw Sweetman, Henderson, and Cher Yang all walking toward the Faggot Tent. When they got there, General Dean and Captain Wessels were waiting for them.
"Guys," General Dean said, "I have an assignment for you."
He pulled down a map.
"Here," pointing to Eritrea "is where you will be sent for the next couple days. The Somalians have invaded one of our most important docks leading out into the Red Sea. It's cutting off our trade supply with General Starkaines. All you guys need to do is take back the dock and secure it until I can send some reinforcements there, which should only be a few days. Since I know the five of you can't do it alone, I'm pairing you up with a few guys from one the most elite Special Forces in the world, Sector 7. If anything goes wrong, I'd like you guys to retreat and hurry back here as quick as possible." He explained as he looked toward the door. "You guys can come in now."
Three soldiers, two men and a woman, walked into the room. They were wearing black tactical camo and they were each carrying an M4 Assault Rifle.
"Boys, this is Sgt. Kyon Suzumiya, Pfc. Izzy Daniels, and Pfc. Ace Spade. These are the guys that can kick some serious ass."
"I'd like it if I was called Alpha Wolf," Spade said. "It's my code name for being the best sniper in Sector 7."
"Whatever. Communications says there's about 50 or more of them Somalians patrolling the dock and they might have some weapons of mass destruction so be careful. Oh and Captain Henderson is in charge. Dismissed, faggots."
Marron, Janelli, and Sweetman saluted and left first. Then Cher Yang and Henderson and the three from Sector 7 did the same. They all walked out and went to their tents to get their gear. They went over to the Transportation Building and requested that a convoy drop them off. After about an hour of driving across the desert, they reached Massawa, Eritrea. When they got there, they planned about their attack.
"Ok this is how it's going down. Alpha Wolf, you go and hide brush in the middle and give me a scouting of the field. Give us help if any one of us is pinned down. Suzumiya, Daniels, and Sweetman, You guys are Blue Team and will flank right. Chew, Janelli and I, Red Team, will flank left. Marron, you're with us. We'll give you a Gonde for the main attack. When I give you the signal, give us suppressing fire so we can move across the field." Captain Henderson explained.
"You three," he looked at Suzumiya, Daniels, and Sweetman, "go to the shack on the way right over there and we'll meet up at that huge garage building. Once we're there, we can hold dock. Once we got it held, Cher Yang and I will help escort Alpha Wolf to our future position. Everyone got it?"
The team nodded in unison.
"Ok, go!" Henderson said as Marron, Janelli, Cher Yang, and he went to the left. Suzumiya, Daniels, and Sweetman ran to the right, behind some bushes. "Alpha Wolf" ran to the brush on top of a small hill. He peeked over the edge of the hill and could see the whole battlefield. He attached a bipod to his M89-SR and looked through the scope.
"Captain, there's 10 skinnies walking around on the left by you and there 7 more skinnies by Suzumiya. I can't really tell where the others are, but I'm guessing they're either inside the big garage or they're at the docks behind the building. I can't really see much behind it, over"
"Thank you Alpha Wolf, over and out." Henderson replied. He looked at his watch. It was 5:49 with 5 seconds til the next minute. He tapped on Marron's shoulder, who was prone on the ground with the Gonde. Henderson did an upward cutting motion with his hand, which was the signal. Marron fired. The bullets cut through the ten Somalians like paper. While that happened, Captain Henderson, Captain Cher Yang, and SSgt. Janelli ran through the field, stopping at boulders every so often to kill any Somalians that came from the garage building. Things weren't going as well for Blue Team. The three of them were behind a cluster of rocks and more and more Somalians came to kill them.
"Alpha Wolf! We're pinned down. Could you give us a hand?" Sweetman radioed him.
"Roger that, Blue Team" he said nonchalantly. He crouched out of his prone position and tossed a smoke grenade into the crowd of Somalians, hitting one of them in the face. Three seconds later, the Somalians were trapped in the smoke. Blue Team turned on their thermal vision and they shot the confused Somalians. As planned, they moved up to the back of the garage building. A minute later, Red Team was next to them.
"Where's Marron?" Daniels asked.
"Oh shit, we forgot about him. I'll head back to get him." He was about to get up and run then Sgt. Suzumiya stopped him.
"Sorry, sir, but there's more skinnies heading that way. Permission to retrieve SSgt. Marron?"
"Granted. Hurry back." Henderson looked at everyone else. "On the count of three, give Suzumiya suppressing fire…one…two…three! Go!" Red and Blue Team blindly fired on either side of the garage building. Sgt. Suzumiya charged across the field.
"Marron, I'm coming to fetch you, over" Suzumiya said as he was running behind cover.
"Thank god. My own fucking team abandoned me. I can see you're pinned down, but I'm out of ammo for the Gonde. I'll come to you, over."
"Roger that." He then radioed Alpha Wolf. "Alpha Wolf, I need you to cover me, over."
"Roger that, Marron." He aimed through his M89-SR and picked off the charging Somalians one by one until it was all clear.
"Thanks Ace. We'll come back to get you." Sgt. Suzumiya said. They ran across the field back to Captain Henderson's position. A Somalian popped out of the field in front of them and started firing his AK-47. Marron immediately killed him but a stray bullet grazed Suzumiya's leg and he tripped. He got back up and limped to the garage building. Just as they got back, they saw Red and Blue Team throw grenades into the windows. Screams of pain were heard then all was quiet. Captain Henderson turned to the others.
"Great job so far. This is what we're gonna do now. Blue Team, flank to the right of the garage building and kill any skinnies that happen to be there." he looked at Marron and Janelli. "You two flank to the left and do the same. Cher Yang and I will go fetch Alpha Wolf. Suzumiya, you're in charge once it's all clear." Henderson said. "Ok, Chew, let's go." They ran back through the field and back to Alpha Wolf's position. Right before they got there, they saw three skinnies standing were Alpha Wolf should be. Henderson pulled out a grenade and was about to pull the pin when he saw a black blur go behind on of the Somalians and cut his throat. The black blur did the same to the other two. Henderson and Cher Yang charged up the hill and saw Alpha Wolf standing there in the middle of three Somalians, twirling a bloody K-Bar in his hand.
"What? You think they could really kill someone from Sector 7?" Alpha Wolf laughed.
As they prepared to head back, Blue and Red Team were taking care of things at the garage building. As planned they flanked left and right and it was all clear. Sgt. Suzumiya walked in the building. It was somewhat dark.
"Guys, its all clear!" he yelled back outside. Suddenly, a gunshot was heard and a puff of smoke and blood came out of Suzumiya's neck. He held it like he was choking and blood poured out of his mouth and neck. His comrades ran in and formed a circle around him while shooting the Somalians. Sweetman checked on him.
"Shit…he's not looking well."
Cher Yang, Alpha Wolf, and Henderson were running back across the field. Henderson heard shouting and screaming and shooting going through his radio.
"What's going on in there? Sweetman, is everything alright?" he was worried.
"Man down! Man down!...Oh, what? Yes, Captain. We're in a tight spot. Sgt. Suzumiya is badly wounded. I don't think he's gonna make it. Unless we leave now."
"Goddamnit! Just as we were about to hold the position too…" Henderson said. "Chew, call up the guys at Asmara and get them to send out medics, now."
