A/N After a long wait, here is the next chapter of Alice! Enjoy!
Rakny huddled underneath the desk, smiling to himself. Breaking into OPSEC's headquarters had been a piece of cake. The smile faded.
At least until I ran into this damn security camera. He thought to himself.
There really was no reason for him to be breaking into the country's Operational Security Force's Headquarters, yet he did it often. It had become a game for him, a game of cat and mouse. He broke in, snuck through the facility to the deepest, most 'secured' corners of the underground building, and left a little calling card. Sometimes he was caught, then the game changed to see how long it took him to break out of their sophisticated detention area.
Still, they had outwitted him, this time. A small CCTV camera, placed out of sight, directly in his path. No blind spots, none that he could get to, anyway.
A guard came strolling in, casually. This was new, too. Normally this area (staff room) wasn't patrolled. Of course, the guard might've been coming in for a quick coffee on his break.
Hmm…what to do? He thought to himself. He COULD sneak up behind the guard and knock him out. One quick blow to the head. But there was still the security camera. He had to think fast. Luckily, that was his area of expertise. Quickly, yet quietly reaching into the pouch on his back, he pulled out a small, multi-purpose gun. It could fire multiple types of rounds, from standard 9mm to darts that could unleash a thousand volts of electricity into whatever it struck. He quickly loaded a tranquilizer dart and an Electro Dart into the pistol. He leaned forward, and quickly shot up, turning around and firing the electro shot into the belly of the camera, frying its circuits. Then, pivoting on his foot, turned the gun on the guard, who didn't have time to react before the tranq dart punctured his neck. He was out on the floor a second later.
Whistling quietly to himself, he dragged the unconscious guard over to a locker, and propped him up in it, rummaging through the guard's pockets until he found a keyring.
"Aha, just what I was looking for.." He started, when he heard a shout.
"FREEZE!" Rakny slowly turned around, and saw at least three dozen guards standing, pointing very dangerous looking guns at him. He smiled, and shrugged, dropping the key ring and his pistol. An older looking man walked into the room, clapping slowly.
"Very nicely done, Rakny. I was wondering how you would fare against our upgrades." He said. Rakny grinned from ear to ear.
"Weeeell, you know I'm good at improvising. Nice trick with the guard, by the way."
"Hm? What trick?"
"What with the guard pretending to have been knocked out by the tranq. Had them build up immunity?" Rakny asked, and the old man nodded. The guard Rakny had shot climbed out of the locker, looking slightly groggy.
"Jeez, Rakny, did you have to put so much tranquilizer in that dart?" He said, rubbing his neck slightly. Rakny grinned.
"Well, Jim, I wouldn't have done it if I didn't think you could take it."
"Yeah, yeah."
"So…Take me away, officer! I have erred in my ways!" Rakny said dramatically, holding up his wrists. The old man smiled.
"Not today, Rakny. I have another use for you." Rakny lowered his arms, and his next sentence summed up how he felt in one word.
"…What?"
