David's POV
Alright, so Harper's gone, I'm left all alone, I don't really know where I am going, but I'm using my data glove to scan the area. It seems that we landed below a city, god knows what city though. That should be for later, my concern is, how the hell did we get here?! First, I try to kill Menendez in Haiti, then I end up in the mountains of Korea. Hell, next thing I know, me, and Harper, along with this woman, who seems to have the skills of Tai Chi, or whatever they called it. Whatever's going on, I'm getting to the bottom of it! Let's see, the pyramid!
"Section you copy?"
That was Harper! I wonder what he found?
"Yeah, Harper, GO!"
"Section, you're not going to believe this, me and Hye Su are at the base of a steel door, sending you a picture now."
I brought up a picture on my data glove, it was a steel door! And I don't think Harper's going to be able to open it, even with explosives.
"Ok, uh, we're gonna try to um…HEY! She's gone again!"
"Up here!" I heard Hye Su say.
"Section, she's at it again!"
He sends live feed from his Point of View, using his camera. Hye Su is climbing up a latter, probably leading up to the surface.
"I think she has the right idea Harper."
"Roger that Section, hey you be careful now!"
"You too, Section out."
I continued walked down the dark tunnel, scanning with my gun, and watching Harper. So far, Hye Su has made it up, and is peering down at Harper, still climbing up.
"Hey slow poke! Go any slower?" She asked sarcastically.
"Alright, alright! This better be worth more than Menendez!" He responded.
He reached the top. He was looking at this little building, with some sort of dragon prop hanging on it. Plus, the background scenery kind of looked beautiful, with palm trees in the background, some grass surrounding the place. It had to be some sort of monumental place, or something.
"Section, mind runnin' some analysis?" Harper asked.
Ok, so I took a picture of the building. When my data glove finished scanning it, and finished its search process, it showed the results. I immediately sent them to Harper.
"The Hydra?" He questioned.
"This is the place! Now, how to…"
Hye Su was starting to think for a second, then she immediately took off. AGAIN?! And, she's charging towards the building. Does she even have patience?! She's going to compromise this mission.
"Holy hell! She's gotta stop doing that!" Harper said.
"Stop her Harper!" I ordered.
"Alright, let me get back to you on that!"
I disconnected from the com-link. There was still a long way in the tunnels for me to go.
Meanwhile…
In Coral Grove, The Serpent, was now free. He still wanted to keep his gaze away from Jenny. Despite being trained his whole life by Cassandra, to simply be an emotionless killing machine. Deep inside, he still felt really sorry for what he did to her. They didn't have time to beat each other up for past mistakes, there were things to do. Reznov kept going on about "STEP 4! Unleash the horde!"
"What do you mean by unleash the horde exactly?" Sue questioned.
"Yeah, why would we like, release those things?" Jenny asked.
"Come on Viktor, you payed attention to Finnwich right?" Lee asked.
"My friends, today, we cannot fight alone, we need every man to play his part! NO! Not just every man."
He stared deeply into the eyes of Sue, Jenny, and Tina.
"Men, woman, we must fight together! We all have a common enemy to face and I fear the enemy is still among us my friends! I will not stop, UNTIL THEY ARE DOWN! BURNT TO ASHES! URA!"
Everyone was just blank at Reznov. The only ones who could really understand were, Mason and The Serpent/Li.
"Wait, I'm not working with him!"
Jenny pointed to Li.
"Yes, I can see the conflict in both of your eyes. When I look into them, I see…
Reznov started to lower his tone slightly
"Betrayal, anger, hatred."
"Ok…not bad, and don't remind me about what happened!" Jenny said.
"No, Li, what did you do?" Sue scolded.
"Look, I was doing some work for, His Eminence, and this is what I had to do for him. When you know you're fighting for the right side, the goal was to…take control of foes, and execute the objective."
"That's, THAT'S…"
Jenny couldn't finish without choking on her words.
"Yes, I remember meeting Reznov in Vorkuta. I had my doubts because both of our governments had different ways in running society, however, I learned that I had to get to know him better, and-"
Jenny then interrupted Mason.
"BUT THIS IS DIFFERENT! Mrs. Ping, I got to know Lee's older brother, but I BARELY got to know him."
"Speaking of getting to know, Lee, you barely got to know him either." Tina said.
"I know, I learned he's more than a snake loving, stink ninja, he's a family man. I could see it." Lee said.
"But, when why did Nora kiss him?" Jenny asked.
"To express her thoughts and feelings." Li said.
"Yes, Nora is a wonderful young lady, she cares for everyone, and so do I. And LEE! You really need to listen to Viktor. He is right, we can't be stuck in the past, we need to finish this once and for a-"
Sue was interrupted by a german, sounding, mechanical PA voice.
"Teleporter one, now active."
Light shined, and there was two people that landed in the middle of the room. Sgt. Roebuck, and Takeo.
"Am I dead?" Roebuck asked.
"Quit whining American, you are fine!" Takeo said.
"Takeo? How, who? What?" Tina said, deranged.
"Ah, Ping, we appear to have more of Richtofen's technology at our side!" Takeo said.
"Oh, so that's what that was? Who's Richtofen?" Roebuck asked.
"We will get to that later, for now, I must introduce you to my associates."
Takeo then noticed Alex Mason.
"Hm, Takeo has never seen you before." He said.
"Alex Mason. Wait, maybe Reznov is right. If we're working with people who were once part of the old evil factions, and it's working, maybe we will get through this." Mason said.
"Mason, this man fights with us. He once lived for Japan. However, he will die for US!" Reznov said.
"Exactly!" Takeo said.
"Hey, where's Nora?" Lee asked.
"We must give her some time Lee, I can be ok with her and Li, so she can keep a close eye when I'm not around." Sue said.
"I'm actually getting kind of worried."
Tina then raised one of her hands into the air.
"Who wants to help me go find her?" She asked.
"I can see where you get your spirit from. I will help." Mason said.
He then took out the gun that he got from the armoury, his M4A1.
"Ok, thank you Mason." Tina said.
"What about-"
"Lee, get to know your brother a little more, I know you need it." Tina said.
Tina and Mason walked away, down the hallway where Nora went.
"Alright, so, how do people now-a-days get to know each other?" Roebuck asked.
"Well…" Li and Lee said concurrently.
The Hydra Casino…
Harper entered the casino, to find that, first of all it was a casino, with all the slot machines inside, secondly, everyone was asleep, and there was Hye Su standing in the middle, holding a dart.
"Man, you are one crazy chick." Harper said.
"I'll take that as a compliment, Mike." Hye Su responded.
"Heh heh…No, we need to know where we are going to gather our intel. We need a source, we can't just go around, knocking people's heads, alright?" Harper said.
"Right…" Hye Su said, passionately.
"Alright, see over there?"
Harper pointed to an elevator at the end of the hallway.
"We check every floor, we search every room, until we find intel."
"Here's the thing, I already know where it is!" Hye Su said.
She zoomed down the hallway, to the elevator, and pushed the control panel to call the elevator.
"Well?"
Harper agreed with Hye Su, and walked down the hallway.
"Fine, but your intel better be accurate. This isn't a game."
The elevator opened. They went inside, and Hye Su pushed the top floor button. They stood beside each other, not sure what to say, with the soft elevator music playing in the back.
"Well uh, this place is nice." Harper said.
"Yes, Master Ping himself has been giving me information about this place." Hye Su explained. "That's why I rushed in. From here on out, I'll listen to you."
"Is there something else you need to take care of before I take the lead here?" Harper asked.
"There is one more thing…" Hye Su said.
"Oh?"
To explain to Harper, she handed him a picture of a Korean woman. It captioned Shi-Hu.
"I have old friends I need to contact." Hye Su said.
