We got dropped off behind a mountain that's about three miles away from where Shepard is supposed to be. Nikolai said that he didn't want to alert the guards, but Soap told me that he was running low on gas. Typical Nikolai.
We slowly advanced the safe house for about thirty minutes. Then, we saw five guards at the door. They also had two dogs. "Okay, I'll take the one standing in front of the door. Ghost, you kill the two taking a smoke. Soap, you take out the two walking behind the house. Roach, you take out the two dogs. On my mark." Price whispered. "Three, two, one mark." We all took them out at the same time. No one noticed. We moved up.
"Okay, we're going to use the element of surprise. I'll go in the front door, Ghost, get the backdoor. Soap and Roach, you're going to climb up and climb in through the windows. Any questions?" Price said. We shook our heads no. "Okay, let's go." Soap said.
Price got situated at the front door, and Ghost in the back. The second story had two windows. One on the front side of the house, and one on the back. I climbed up and got ready. Soap was at the back. Price started counting down from three. I got out a flash bang, and so did the others. "Go, go, go!" Price yelled. I got the grenade and threw it through the open window. The tangos were blinded. I quickly climbed in and Soap and I took the four out together. We went downstairs.
I found about ten bodies in the ground, but the others were still under heavy fire. I grabbed another flash bang, threw it, and ran towards the sofa that Price was hiding behind.
"Roach! Shepard's getting away! He's taking one of the snowmobiles, it may already be too late! You need to go after him! Take Soap with you! Me and Ghost will take it from here. Go!" Price said. Soap and I ran outside, and grabbed a snowmobile, and floored it.
After about two minutes of riding, we saw Shepard. He had two of his men beside him. Soap took out his pistol and took both of them out. Now Shepard saw us. He pulled out a grenade, and started to cook it.
"Soap! We need to go through that way!" I pointed to a shortcut, but trees were everywhere. "Are you mad?" Soap asked, but then saw the grenade. We went through the shortcut. The explosion was so close that I could smell the smoke.
I kicked it up a gear, and so did Soap. We dodged trees, and we were doing great until Soap crashed into a tree. I started to stop. "No! Go get Shepard! I'll be fine!" With that, went after Shepard.
After about ten seconds, I saw a ledge, and there was a huge drop. But then I saw Shepard on the other side. So I kicked it up to the highest gear, and floored it. Then, in midair, I pulled out my pistol and shot his tires. His ride then flipped over, and he fell off. Then I somehow made the lading and jumped off. I took out my pistol.
He was still trying to get up. I cocked my pistol, and aimed. Right when I was about to pull the trigger, someone yelled, "Freeze!" I slowly tilted m head back, and saw that one of Shepard's men was aiming a gun at my head. I don't know how he snuck up on me like that.
"Put the gun down." he said. I didn't move. Then, I head butted him, and shot him. I turned back to Shepard. He pulled himself out from under the vehicle and was now standing up. I again aimed my gun. Then, I heard a helicopter overhead.
"Roach! We need to get out of here! The Russians are almost here, and we can't find Soap!" Price yelled from the helicopter. I had two choices: To kill Shepard once in for all, and Soap dies, or I help Soap and Shepard gets away. I know what I had to do. I went up to Shepard, and punched him, but then walked towards our helicopter.
It took a minute, but then I showed him were I left Soap. "Soap! We need to leave! The Russians are almost here! Alaska's getting ready to be a war zone! Come on!" I yelled. Nikolai landed the copter, and Ghost helped Soap get to the helicopter. Then we started to take off. It's a good thing too. I saw that there was about forty Russian squads advancing towards Shepard's safe house.
"I guess someone had the same idea that we had, they just got here a little late." Nikolai said. I was wondering about how long it will take them to find Shepard, and kill him, since he was the only one left. But then I saw some troops moving in towards Shepard. It was more of his men. Now them and the Russians were about equal.
I started to think. Did I do the right thing? I mean, I could have killed him right there. No more pain in suffering. So what if I lose a great friend. All of it would be worth it. But then again, we don't leave anyone behind. I thought about this as we headed back to HQ.
What would you do if you were in Roach's shoes? Would you kill Shepard, or save Soap? Give me a review or send me a private message telling me what you would do. And thanks!
