Special shout out to xmavericks-lil-fighter-piotx for the nice review!
I woke up to Ghost yelling, "Roach get up! We're under attack! Get your bloody self up!" he yelled. I woke with a start. I heard shooting. I got out of bed and grabbed my AK47 and ran out the door.
When I saw what was happening, I couldn't believe it, well, actually I could. It was so predictable, yet we didn't see it coming. Makarov somehow used the downloadable contents on the flash drive to tell the Russians where our base is.
But there's one thing I couldn't comprehend. Makarov came running in. I expected him to start shooting at us so I cocked my gun and aimed at him. "Roach! Stop! What are you doing?" Ghost said. "He brought the Russians here Ghost!" "No he didn't! Those aren't Russians outside! They're Shepard's men!"
I got so worked up that I thought Makarov's the one who did this. I mean, it does make since, but it wasn't Makarov. But then I asked something. "Ghost, is Shepard on the base?" He stood silently for a moment, and then said "Yes. But if you see him, don't lose your cool. Don't kill him unless necessary." he said. I can't believe, after everything Shepard's done to us, Ghost actually says not to kill him. I want to see him suffer. But Ghost is right, he could be valuable. He may even end the war if we had him hostage.
"Give me a gun!" Makarov yelled. Give Makarov a gun? That's at the top of my most craziest things to do list, but Ghost gave him his Dessert Eagle.
"Okay listen up!" Price said. "We don't know how many tangos are out there. But we do know that Shepard is out there. So here's the plan. We're going to run outside, and take cover first chance we get. When we do, we'll kill all the surrounding enemies. We move up, do the same. This continues until all the tangos have been dropped. Take no one hostage, except Shepard. Do not kill Shepard unless absolutely necessary. Understand? Any questions?" he asked. We nodded our heads no. "Move out!" Price yelled.
I was last. But before I went out there to finish the fight, Makarov pulled me back in to the base. "I know that Price said to keep Shepard hostage. Do a favor for me. Kill him." "Why would I do that?" I asked, as it was a stupid request. "If you do, I will see to it that Russia will, ease off a bit on your beloved country. If not, you've already heard rumors that we've acquired some nuclear missiles. I will not even flinch when we use them on your country. Do you understand?" he asked. "Yes." Who's orders should I follow? Price, or Makarov? I ran out to the battle.
