When we landed in Mexico, we contacted Jackson. "Sir, where's the safe house at?" I asked. "It's about three clicks north of your current position." he said. "And I'm sending in another chopper, with me and some of my men on it, just in case you two need backup." he said. "Thanks sir, but your backup won't be needed." I said. "I hope not." Sgt. Jackson said.
We ran the three clicks, then saw the safe house. "Okay Roach, I see Two tangos outside, and an enemy sniper. But there's probably more in the house. When we get closer, I'll check. But now, I want you to kill the sniper, while I kill the two guards. On my mark: Three, two, one, mark." he whispered. We took them out at the same time. "Good, now move up." he said.
When we were by the house, Ghost peered in the window. "Okay, there's seven tangos on the first floor, and three on the second floor. I have a visual on Shepard. He's sitting on the couch." Ghost whispered.
"We're going to hug the walls. We're going to camp at the door until we take out the seven tangos. You restrain Shepard, while I go upstairs and kill the other three tangos. Understand?" he asked. I nodded. "Okay… move!"
We moved in, without making a sound. "Ghost, throw a flash bang." I said. He threw one, and then we both started firing. In a few seconds, all seven tangos were down. Shepard ran out the house.
"Roach! Run after Shepard! I'll take the other three!" Ghost said. I started to run after him.
After about thirty seconds, I caught up to him, and tackled him. I reached in my holster and grabbed my dessert eagle, aiming at him. When I pulled the trigger, it was jammed. Shepard got up, and head butted me. I started to black out, but I forced myself to stay awake.
He started to unjam my gun. After a few seconds, it was unjammed. He aimed at me, and said, "Remember what I told all of you Roach: History is written by the victors. History is being written by me. And you will not be a part of it. He aimed, and right when he was about to fire, I saw blood splatter from his side. I looked to my right, and saw that Sgt. Jackson had taken the shot. Thank god for backup.
But my good mood didn't last long, he aimed my gun, and killed , and his two men. "No!" I yelled, and got up. I tackled him, and tried to get my gun. I finally got it, and pushed him back onto the ground. "No Shepard, history is written, by good people. People like us; people like me." I said, and took the shot. Shepard fell down dead.
After overcoming the shock of finally killing Shepard, I went over to Sgt. Jackson. He was dead, and so were his two men. Ghost finally caught up. "Roach! Where is he? Did you get…" he stopped, as he stared at Shepard's dead body.
"He's dead Ghost. We've finally got him." I said. After he stared at the body, he came over to the three bodies, and tried to contact Price.
"Price. Shepard is dead. I repeat, Shepard is dead, but Sgt. Jackson is K.I.A." Ghost said. We waited a few seconds, then he replied, "Okay Ghost, go to the LZ as planned, and they should take you back to base. We're on our way home right now, the base is destroyed, but Truck is K.I.A." Price said.
So now Jackson and Truck were dead. I know we won, but it doesn't really feel like a victory. We headed back to the LZ, and headed back to base.
