Sergeant Book stood with most of his platoon outside of the mess hall trying to get them pumped for the mission to be. "Attention! We will be going into enemy territory to apprehend Audid's top military sellers and advisors. If this mission is a success we will be out of this sandy hell hole in no time. We will dust off in the Black Hawk's after and only after hearing our code word, "Irene." Now who's ready to storm into Mogadishu, kick some ass and take some names!?" Book then made his way after giving the pep talk, to his quarters where he weapon was being stored. "Time to get ready for our little party."

"I see your all pumped up for this mission and trying to get your squad pumped up also. Well guess how lucky you are."

little pause

"I'm in your squad for this mission so don't you feel lucky old buddy."

Gaven says to Books while standing in his doorway.

"I'm pumped for this mission i don't know what it is about missions but i just love them. Just wish we didn't have to wait for the code word, just go and do it. *laughs a little* With me and you in the same squad we will be in and out of there in no more then thirty minutes."

Gaven says waiting for Books to come out into the hall. Gaven already had all his stuff pack and on, and he had his trusty beautiful reliable M4A1 hanging off of his shoulder.

Riza yawned heavily. She had a look around to see her company assemble. She sighed slightly but decided she should do the very same thing. She got up from her bed and slowly stumbled her way to her locker in only a sleeveless shirt and shorts. She opened it up and yawned heavily again before picking out her outfit as well as arms. She picked out a photo of her and her dad, giving the photo a kiss. She placed it back into the locker. She had to change, but she might have no time to go to the dressing room. She remained at location, removing shirt and shorts which leaves her in underwear. She started putting the millitary outfit on carefully while watching that photo of her father and her in the locker. The only one that ever cared about her before she joined the army.

"I'll see you later Books i think i might of forgot something back in the locker room."

Gaven said as he walked away and back to the locker room. He had been thinking about this girl. He didn't really know her he just saw her about every day because her locker was right next to his. He entered the locker and didn't think anyone was there. He walked over to his locker and when he turned the corner to open his locker he saw the girl he always thought about but didn't know.

"O im sorry miss i'll just get it later and let you be."

Gaven said as he turned around and slowly walked away from his locker. Hopeing the girl didn't even really notice him. He was hopeing that she wouldn't say anything before he got out of the locker room but what ever happens happens but he was still embarrased.

(i'm trying to leave room for you to post to my character sparky k)

"Now where is the fire? You seem like an awful a lot of hurry man"
Riza grinned as she put her pants on. She walked up to the bench in front of her and picked the tank top up. She put it over her head and put it on. She then stopped and looked in his direction. She smiled at him and just stood there. He sure had some physical assets, as he was maginficent. She then shook it loose as she considered herself professional. She was not supposed to check boys out. She was supposed to take them out and that only if they were not serving America the way America pleased.

"FIRE WHAT FIRE?!"

Gaven said as he laughed.

"I'm guessing your done changing?"

Gaven said turning around hoping she had clothes on now. He walked over to his locker next to hers and opened it.

"I'm sorry to saw but i didn't mean to see you in your bra and panties but if i may say so it was a sight to see. I mean i've seen alot of good looking girls in my days in there underware but none as fine as you."

Gaven said as he took off the sleevless skin tight black shirt he had on exposing his very muscular stomach and chest. He threw the shirt into the locker and grabbed another clean one. But only after he grabbed a picture of his older brother that used to be in the army and was killed in action. He put the picture in his pocket shut the door and walked over infront of Riza and put on another skin tight black sleevless shirt and picking up all his acceries and dropping them on the ground. He didn't want to put it all on yet.

Riza looked down at the things he dropped for a moment in suprise. He did not seem to bother at all about picking them up and she shrugged, thinking what big of a deal could it be anyway. It was not really straining to do so. She bended down and picked his stuff up, placing it on the bench in the middle of the room. She looked at him with a smile before walking up to her locker again. She took the military vest from the locker as well as her blue robe. She put the vest on and had the robe folded in her arms. She took her rifle over her shoulder and placed the handguns by her waist. She walked up to Gaven and placed her hand on his cheek with a smile on her face.
"Do good on the field sir"
She said with a calm and relaxed voice.

Gaven looked at Riza in surprise she put his all his equipment on a bench instead of the floor. He felt her put her hands on his cheeks and he looked into her eyes and put his arms around her waist.

"Only if you are in my squad so i can watch you and make sure nothing happens to a gorgeous girl as yourself. Because barely knowing you I would still take a bullet for you."

Gave said as one of his hands slipped down off of Riza's waist and onto her as$. She didn't jump so he didn't really think to move it.

"Oh that better be your gun!"
Riza grunted and smoothly removed his hands from her behind and took a step backwards. She was flattered of the words but now was not the time for cuddling. She shook her head with a grin on her face. She checked her equipment trough before taking a step towards the exit door.
"The mission is what matters now and once that is settled we might continue what you have started. You just better keep your head straight while in combat, commander"
She smiled at him and waited for a response.

Gaven was surprised at what she said but didn't matter he started to hear some commotion outside the locker room and his mind went back to the mission.

"Well someone can change very quickly but if i may add i didnt get to be squad leader not thinking about my missions its just that i care for you and dont want to see you get hurt."

Gaven said as he picked up his equipment and slung it over his shoulder and walked out of the locker room.

Jacob walked out of his tent calmly with his gear piled on his back. He was heading for the Black Hawk while what Gaven had said buzzed through his mind. "I'm in your sqaud...' I never knew he had been transferred but if that's the case then might as well put him in a good position." As he made it to the Black Hawk he loaded his all of his gear except for his weapon. He walked away from the chopper and headed towards Col. Aresdale's office.

Gaven was carrying all his stuff on his back and made his way to the black hawk and kinda threw everything onto the plane and walked off. He saw his newly known friend Books. Gaven only knew Books because his older brother used to be in his squad. Gaven caught up with Books and started walking along side of him.

"I'm seeing you everywhere around here. *laughs a little* So my brother used to be in your squad. When you two weren't on missions did you get along well or did you two just ignore each other?"

Gaven asked while keeping in stride with Books.

"My brother Darren Davis. You remember him right? He was KIA like two to three years ago."

Gaven said

"By the way where are we walking to anyways?"

(lol sorry i just wanted to give you alot to post off of or something idk lol if he is annoying im sorry lol. you didnt kill his brother did you or it wasn't your fault was it lol )

((It's just Book haha. I put with that name enough from Telemarketers ))

Book kept walking forward but decided to respond to his new squad mate because an unknown soldier in your ranks is about as good as a dead soldier. "Well.. me and your brother were like.. well brothers. He got taken down on one of our later missions.. and I signed us up for this to kind of honor that he fell in combat." Arriving at the door to Col. Aresdale's office he truned around to face Gaven. "I'll be out in just a second."

Gaven stopped at the door and looked at Book.

"ok i'll be here waiting. and what do you mean by this mission is for him these b@$t@rds didn't kill him did they!?"

Gaven said getting a little hot headed before he sat down. He saw Book go inside the office and he leaned back against the wall.

Book marched right up to Col. Aresdale and stood at attention. "Sir, permission to speak." Colonel Aresdale turned around. "Granted, At ease soldier." Jacob rested his muscle and gathered the courage to ask his question. "Thank you sir, If I ay ask sir, what are we going up against out there?" Col. Aresdale smiled and turned around to his desk. "Since they don't know that we are coming we may only have to deal with minimal militia forces." Jacob nodded and saluted his supperior. "Thank you sir." Cold. Aresdale leaned over and spoke to one of the technicions before returning his attention to Book. "No more then thirty minutes soldier. In and Out." Book exited the office and made his way to where the Black Hawk was still stationed.

Gaven's eyes shot open when he saw Book pass him.

"Dam that was quick i didn't think it would of been that quick. So when they giving the command to go i don't want to want any longer. But i guess while we wait you could tell me about how cool and good my brother was.?"

Gave said as he reached the black hawk and sat down on the side of it awaiting Book's answer.

(sorry about the s but it just didn't sound right leaving it book and it still doesnt because most names in the army like book or something short like that a s is always added so once we start combat ima prolly add the s to book because thats the way the army is and im just used to that way lol )

((Haha try'd that on my cousin and he bust the drill sarge in the nose. but I don't mind really.))

Book just sighed. "Your brother was a good man.. he knew what I was gunna do next and vice versa. We were almost perfectly linked until one day we both slipped up and got seperated. He was taken down in a hell-storm of bullets. One of the best damn soldiers that I or any of the soldiers in my unit ever served under." He got to the Black Hawk and took a seat checking his gear."

((Try not to advance to quickly through the RP. Don't want anyone else to get lost.))

The harsh, shrill voice of the commander reached Hazel's ears in a vapid roar. She moaned sleepily and sighed to herself. Placing the heal of her palm on her forhead she squeezed her eyes tightly and stood. Letting out a short yawn, she raised her arms above her head, and stretched. Brusquely she whised herself off to the tiny bathroom present, and turned on the small sink. With a sharp squeal it let forth a small torrent of water, with which Hazel splashed her tanend face. As she looked into the mirror, she eyeed herself. Her vivd green eyes were worn heavy on the deep circles that enraptured them. Strands of messy black hair fell into her face from the pony tail which had loosened over the night. A few freckles dotted her shoulders and nose.

As the girl grabbed the single towel to dry her face she sighed once more. Marine- gone- army, this was somewhat new to her. She walked out and slipped her fatigues over her black tanc top and boy shorts, taking the minimal time to spray on some moisturizer. She pulled her choppy black hair into a messy bun, and quickly tightened it to a neat round one, with a few strands framing her face loosely. Gel was sparse here, and no one would care too much. She grimaced then, and hoped her prediliction was correct. She was certainly not in the mood for a round of PT just for a slightly untidy bun. She grinned. She really was a bit to laid back. laughing softly she nodded. She knew her commander knew her well enough though. She could handle herself.

As she stepped outside, Hazel immediatly centered herself on Charlie platoon. She eyes it carefully, counting it's ranks. Each squad leader had his own room ,and was responsible for it's inhabitants. Calling the platoon to attention, she straightened.

" squad leaders. Recieve the Report! "

Book went up to one of the pilots and leaned in close. "Are you a Delta pilot?" The pilot looked up. "Yeah, I'll be flying Super-Six 1." Book smiled. "So you'll be flying the Delta and Rangers in?" The pilot laughed and looked around. "Yeah pretty much." Book then saluted and went towards the mess hall. Noticing a commanding officer that he had not seen before he went over to Charlie to watch just how she did her work.

Gaven got up and started to put all his stuff on and did and he left his helmet with his goggles and night vision goggles on it on the plane and slung his M4A1 carbine over his neck and let it hang down and he put his two DE 50's in the pistol holders and walked up behind Books and whispered in his ear with a gloved hand on his shoulder.

"Shall I go tell all the men to get ready and start boarding the hawks?"

Gaven said whispering into Books ear before leaning way awaiting the response. He had a hand on his M4A1 and had its safty on and pointed up towards the sky.

"No, there is no telling if this will be like all the other times. This time we will wait for "Irene" before we start boarding." Just as he was talking he heard a radio transmission. *"This is Colonel Aresdale. The code word that will iniciate operation Irene will be "Irene" itself. That is all." Jacob looked up and got his gun ready. "I have a feeling that this won't be a fluke like all the rest." He smiled and made sure his gear was ready before he did one last pleliminary check of his gear and he boarded the Black Hawk. He secured his gear to his seat and jumped down.

Gaven didn't hear the radio transmission because he didn't have his helmet on but he could tell by the look on Books face that it was serious. Gaven grabbed his helmet and put it on but didn't strap it yet. He checked his gun and put the silencer on it and made sure the scope was working and accurate. Then he held it up in one hand and heard the black hawks propeller start to rotate and he stood next to Books.

"Well I can tell your serious now so should i atleast go assemble the troops and wait till you come and give them the order to start boarding or do you want me to tell them to pack up there shit and board the hawks now?"

Gaven said as he turned around and started to walk backwards towards all the other troops that where in alpha company under the command of his and Books.

(hey books you can call me by my last name if you want to or or you can just keep calling him gaven doesn't matter to me.)

From his lonely corner Royce grabbed his jacket and almost instantly had it equiped. He walked trough the room and as he walked he made sure everything was the way it should. He made sure his jacket was fastened and that his watch had the correct time. He passed trough the locker room where he walked by Riza. With a gentle nod he stopped by his locker and opened it. They were most definatly going by air and by that he had the perfect equipment. He picked out a helmet with a visor, a thick bullet vest, a thick pair of leather gloves and an leather overall. With his work, it was of high importance that he was protected.

He continued to walk, patting Riza on the back and continued into the armory and his shelf. He picked out the massive KSP90B Machinegun and held it in his arms. He picked then up the two Walther P99, and put them in his gunpockets. With a grin on his face, he strapped the KSP90B around his shoulder and neck, making it hang over his chest. They were going into the heart of combat. He picked up a box that was under his shelf and opened it slowly. In the box was grenades, mines and other explosive devices. He one by one picked up the devices and tied them to different positions all over his body, before shutting the box again. He was armed from heel to head with explosives, a heavy machinegun and dual pistols. He grinned as he exited the armory.

He walked out to the chopperpad, where he passed Hazel. Hazel was a member of his squad, "Charlie". He smiled at her from behind his visor, pretenting to be totaly uninterested, even though she always visited his mind. He continued walking over the ground and towards the Blackhawks. He smiled and stopped by Gaven who headed away. He saluted him with respect before continue to one of the blackhawks. As he climbed onboard he took another look at first Hazel. She had stickied to his mind like no one else. He then turned to look at Gaven and had a hard time not smiling. He always mocked those soldiers. Those who walk around light. Those who think that the M4A1 or the M16 is the future, and simply rely on medium weighted weapons because "they are accurate". He himself knew better, as his machinegun was one of the most effective around at modern time. At least what he thought.

He leaned back in the blackhawk with a grin on his face. All that remained now was the takeof and they were to head into the heart of combat. Oh, what Royce had waited for this day. To watch the troops charge into the battlefield and make everything right.

((Everyone seems ready to me. If you are in a different unit just make the chopper leave at a different time.))

The old communication of the base cracked to like with the sound of Colonel Aresdale's voice. "Irene. I repeat Irene. Green light to engage operation Irene.


Book's blood ran faster then ever and his heart pounded in his chest. He sprinted to where his platoon was grabbing their gear. "C'mon boys, we are heading off to Mogadishu. Get it in Gear!" At that he turned around and head back for the chopper. Once on board he fastened his safety harness and watched as one by one his unit piled in. Checking the condition of his equipment and weaponry, he watched as the two pilots slowly walked towards the Black Hawk. He made a hand motion trying to say hurry up and they all started to laugh. "ETA is 15 Minutes!!"

Vlad laughed as the Black Hawk launched, and then continued to tell one of the Alpha comrades, the team he was chosen to join by Aresdale, about the guns in Russia. "No, no no. In Russia we have much more powerful guns." explained Vlad as he tried to emote how powerful they were "Back in Russia, we call them them the Kalasnikov" he kept on explaining. The soldier looked back at him. "It could shoot through walls too, not like this piece of..." continued Vlad as he looked at the M16 that was handed to him. He wasn't allowed to take any of the weapons from Russia, and was handed the American one instead.

"Vell, I think ve better get ready for action" said Vlad to the rest of the Alpha team as he double checked his M16 was fully functional and ready.
"I almost died one time on the battlevield, my gun was stuck" he added.

(I'm trying to replace some letters with "v" to give him a Russian accent )

Kain sat in the Alpha copter checkin his M4A1 carbine, looking around the chopper he saw the Russian Vlad and a few others in the Alpha squad. No one really stood out except the Russian he talked alot of sense about the Kalasnikov and it was much better than these cheap arse Carbines.

"One grain of sand and these Carbines will jam up! Keep 'em clean boy!" he said with a smile. Quickly he checked his berreta. "Hopefully we can do this quickly" he said across the copter trying to start a conversation.

"Rember, we don't launch until all other choppers are loaded and give the signal. Also, no heroics on this mission. We don't need to lost anyone on a routine mission like this one. Is that clear soldiers!?" A resoundinh "HOORAH" came from most of the men in the chopper. He placed his gun down next to him and lowered his head. "Some of us may not make it back from this mission so keep that in mind all of you. You guys are like brothers to me! Now let's do this!"

As her squad leaders reported in in loud, distinct voices she popped a crisp defiant salute, and snapped her arm back into place. The frantic voices around her set her into gear and she let out a soft grunt.

" Charlie company, fall out and fall in with the rest of the battalion. "

As they did so Hazel turned. One of her company-mates caught her eye. Royce. A hint of a smile seemed to curl up gently on the corner of his lips, but in a moment it was gone. She eyed his back as he walked toward one of the based hawks. He was an interesting one. he always carried the heaviest ammo, and never dared complain. Even so, he remained quite quiet...but always kind and respectful. Hazel frowned slightly. Often enough it seemed he was only tolerating her. She considered this, rolling it around in her mind for a moment. Though there were some she didn't favour, she took care in all of them. That was how a team had to function. She heard book yell for mostly alpha, but nodded and followed around the back of the launch pad. She eyed their C.O wearily.

" Sir, Am I on snipe or piloting? "

She asked, looking past him to the other camo clad soldiers scrambling to take their places.

*Alpha's pilot*

"This is Alpha Squad, Super Six 2 is fired and ready to go! Who all else is ready to do this thing?"

((Just to signal that Alpha unit is willing and ready to go))

Vlad smiled at Kain. "Vell, it vill be quickly, but it depends quickly for the best of whom" he continued. "Ve could be dead in fifteen seconds if something goes wrong. You know, if someone throws a grenade in the wrong direction" Vlad laughed as he recalled a time. "And ve vere supposed to learn how to use grenades, and one of my comrades, Stas, had thrown it in the direction he vas supposed to. He threw it too hard, and it hit the aim targets that vere nearby. It bounced off and flew tovard us, It vas about to land on us ven it exploded, sending shards in all directions. He stayed without a proper meal for a few months, I think, after that"

Gaven had jumped up into the blackhawk and taken his seat and strapped on his helmet and slide the visor down before looking around the hawk and noticing that alpha company was ready to take then he heard "the russian" jabbering about negitive stuff and how the russians were better then the americans and it kind of got on his nerves. He looked over in "the russians" direction and smoothly said.

"You damn russians are always negitive about everything and you think you are the best at everything and you think you have the best of everything. Soldier I would advise you shut up about Russia, and something going wrong because as a squad leader I don't want anything to go wrong and jeperdize the mission or put one of my troops in trouble. So now if anything does go wrong I will blam you as to it being you were the one talking about. And then if i do find out about it and it was your fault I will have no problem getting you stripped of your rank and power. So just keep quite and let everyone relax and take in hopefully not there last breaths of air on american soil alive and not injured. And might I add while in the air only suad leaders commanders and LT's are allowed to talk unless they give a soldier the right to speak. So now i'm done talking to you and just deal with what you get or don't use it at all."

Gaven said as he looked away from "the russian" and to the other soldier that had encouraged him on the American weapons being crap.

"Soldier Kain! shut your mouth and don't encourage "the russian" if you two soldiers don't get your minds focused now you are going to jeperdize this mission so get focused. Also if you two soldiers think Russia is so much better than America get the hell off of my blackhawk and go join the russian military. You are a American soldier and your a American soldier because you LOVE your country and want to protect it! Now talking about how much better Russia is then America makes me think you two are spies and are going to pull something on us. Now i'm going to have to watch you two closely and that is not good because it takes my full concentration on the mission away because i have to focus on the mission and watching you two soldiers that think America isn't good enough for you!"

Gaven said in a harsh tone. As he turned away from the two soldiers and looked at Books and whispered in his ear.

"I'm sorry Sir but it just seems to me like they love Russia more then who they are fighting for and might I add and you remember that I my older brother Darren was killed in action on a mission with you."

Gaven said as he looked at every soldier on the alpha company blackhawk and said.

"Don't anybody ever dis honor the American name like these two fellow soldiers here! You fight for America because you love America! Fighting in and for the American army isn't just a job it's a job you do because you love your country and want to protect what you love! Only myself and 1st Sargent Books know this but his friend and my older brother 1st Sargent Darren Davis was killed in action by a damn Russian! So if I seem to hate the Russians I have a very strong right to be! That is all."

Gaven said once again in a harsh tone before he looked out the side of the blackhawk and grabbed the handle and slid the door to the blackhawk shut ready to take off.

"Sorry sir, I'm only stating the truth that these god for saken guns are a pile of crap sir!" he said to Gaven, "And Sir, the 'Russian' has a name, you should try using it some time". He looked over to Vlad raising his eyebrows muttering under his breath "ignorant ****". Kain wasnt even a born and bred American, he was born in Ireland, in the United Kingdom, and sent to America at 19. "You know what is agood rifle! The Sa80!" he said with a broad smile

Gaven looked around then he heard what the dam dis loyal solider say something about him and something about Russia again and he lost it. Gaven got up from his seat and walked over to the un loyal soldier and grabbed him by the necked and picked him up and slammed him up against the black hawk wall. And turned of his com link and whispered in the soldiers ear just so the two of them could hear.

"listen hear you little b!tch. My brother died serving his country he was killed in action by your beloved russians."

Gaven whispered in his ear as he gripped the soldiers throught tighter.

"And unless you have q higher rank than me you can't tell me to do shit soldier!".

Gaven finished and walked back to his seat and just stared at the soldier wanting to kill him so bad right now.

He'll regret that

His eye's focused on Gaven "So Vlad, hows it like being in a new Country? Miss Russia at all?". Kain checked his equipment making sure everything was in order. "Bet you can't wait till you get to leave America! Soon as were done here im going back to Ireland now that should be some sweet R an R!" He laughed slightly his eyes looking at the rest of alpha team "They don't have any rifles there! Only Potatoes!" He said with a broad grin.

Vlad kept quite at Gaven's remarks, but he will sure have payback one time.

"I'm not even sure! Do you know how harsh the weather is in Russia? The weather here is much better" Vlad replied, smiling as his new comrade. "Thanks for taking my back"

Then Vlad turned to Gavon. "If you ever talk about mother Russia like that again, you better have a battalion of troops all nearby you.. I am here vrom the United Nations to see to it that none of you Americans try to do anything tricky."

"Heh, remember, vhen Vorld Var 2 started, both of our countries vere preety much the only ones actually vighting for most of the var? Americans stayed in their little safehouse continent, until they realized what would happen if VE lost the var and how much they would be screved if the Nazi tried to assault them" implored Vlad as he turned back to Kain, with a fascination of how different Americans can be. Some want war, some don't.

"The weather is pretty great in the U.S" he looked around the chopper "one of the few things" he muttered under his breath. "Can't wait to get down on the ground".

"Anyone got any idea of what were facin down there? Don't wanna be shooting any civilians" He looked around the chopper again waiting for an answer.

Book just put his face in his hands at how undisciplined his team was turning out to be. The last thing he wanted was for two of his units having a fued right in the middle of all out war.

"That's ennough out of the two of you. If you don't calm down I'll personally throw you off this Black Hawk myself. Is that clear soldiers!?"

He then stood up and walked to where the pilots where so he could get a little peace from his unit.

*Alpha Squad's Pilot*

"We are approuching the designated LZ. We will all fast rope down once Seargent Book has securely reached the ground and dropped a smoke grenade. Once he has done so you will all fast rope down secure the position as quickly and quietly as possible. We will be cover fire for Beta Squads' team as they move in to secure and capture the targets and move back to the LZ. Is your mission clear?"

The chopper stayed in mid-air about forty miles from Mogadishu waiting for the other pilots to give the mission perameters and to give their notification lights. Delta's notification lights flahed on then off quickly allowing the other pilots to know that they werte ready to go. Now all that was left was Beta and Charlie and they would be good for the mission.

Gaven looked around then strapped his helmet on. Lowered his night vision and thermal goggles over his visor and turned them on. Out of his left eye he could now see green and black and out of his right eye he could see all blue black and everyones body temperature. He then put his gloves on and strapped them around his wrist. He turned on his com link to a private channel only the leaders were on like himself, books,and the charlie leaders.

"Alright Books im ready to drop with you. Im going to scan the LZ and surrounding area with my night vision to make sure that it is clear."

Gaven said as he grabbed the handle to the blackhawks sliding door and opened it. He looked around and scanned the perimeter and saw something but it looked like a animal. Atleast he hoped it was one because he couldn't tell from this far away.

"Boy get that night vision off now! It is two in the after noon. They have no idea that we are even planning this search and capture. Further more no one will rope down after me until I give the direct signal authorizing you to. And for a last reminder it's Book!"

After saying this two other lights flashed and he slid down teh line leaving the squad to wait for his signal. He made it all the way to the ground and moved to an adjacent building. Seeing nothing but "civilians" running around in a panic he motioned for his squad to repel down and join him at this position.

Book watched as civilians ran around in a mad panic and knew that any one of them could be carrying a weapon. The only thing he hated was being unsure and at the moment no one could be trusted and from what he saw from his team they were going to very useless if their performance kept up the way it had.

((This is 1994 we don't have opticle imaging that sophiticated and we have radios not communicators built into our helmets.))

(ur taking all the fun out of it )

Gaven looked around the black hawk.

"Alright he is giving the signal so lets go now!"

Gaven said as he tossed out a rope and waited for the others. He was going to be the last one off of the blackhawk to make sure everyone got out and down to the ground ok.

Vlad quickly ensured that the rope was fastened tightly and down he slid off the rope until he got to the ground, he quickly got his M16 in a ready position and ran toward nearest cover. There he crouched and looked around, just in case. All he saw were civilians, on the opposite side near a wall was Book, Vlad nodded to him as he analyzed the enviorment and kept sure that noone was going to shoot the soldiers that didn't get off the Black Hawk yet.

Just as the Book had given the order a message came over the chopper communications.

"Super Six 3 has been hit by an enemy RPG, I repeat Super Six one is down. Alpha move to the downed Hawk and secure the area so we can get the pilots out."

Book looked at his radio after the transmission. "Shit... Alright everyone down on the double! Davis you are with me so move! Everyone else stay close and advance towards the chopper's crash site." He then waited for Davis so he could scout farther ahead into the city. "Oh Vlad you're with me and Davis now let's get moving."

The radio chimed in again. "Just head to the black smoke!"

"Roger That" replied Vlad in the microphone as he ran across to the nearest wall and began to cautiously ran toward the black smoke, however stoping near cover to check that no hostile presence was around the corner.

"Any invormation about where the RPG shooter vas located at?" inquired Vlad.

"Vlad move it up to this position!" Book was hiding behind a large piece of an old building that jutted out from a back alley. He stayed low and watched as the black smoke billowed up high above the city. "We don't know where the RPG came from but intel warned us that there might be a possible shooter near us to!" He remianed low and listened to the distant fire coming from all directions. "Don't fire until you are fired upon!"

Davis looked around the hawk and saw everyone was out. He looked down to the ground and saw everyone had taken cover. When he went to look up and was about to throw his rope over the side of the hawk he heard something and looked in the way it was coming from. It was a rpg he grabbed the rope in his hand and looked to the pilots.

"You got a incoming rpg."

Davis said as he ran and jumped out of the blackhawk and down to the ground. He grabbed onto his rope tight and slid to the ground. Before he made it a bullet had cut through his rope and he feel ten feet before hitting the ground. He rolled and got up. He ran over to Book and took cover.

"What's wrong besides the fact that they know we are here already and i almost got killed.

"Davis get over to that building and provide cover fire for when I cross over." Book prepared himself for when Davis would move to his position but instead decided to run out before Davis and provide cover for him. He made it half way out before heavy fire rang out at them. "Everyone down!" Book crawled to the other building and sat up against the wall holding his Assault rifle close. Two skinnies(What the marines called Somalian militia) ran down the corner and Book opened fire wounding one of them and missing the other. The one wounded somalian tried to get back up and aim his weapon at Book. "Don't do it..." The somalian had his weapon pointed at Book but was killed by Johnson, a new recruit, before he could fire. "Seargent we need to stick together!" Book just stared at him for a moment. "We'll wait for Davis first!"

Vlad started running to the position when he saw Davis fall from the rope, then he heard fire coming from Book's direction, he turned his face left and saw that one Somalian was killed while the other ran in Vlad's direction, trying to find cover and oblivious to where he was running at. The Somalian finaly noticed Vlad before the few feet of when they were about to encounter each other. At the last second, the Somalian tried to fire his gun but at that time Vlad hit the Somalian in the face with the butt of his rifle. The Somalian's aim driftet to the left from the force of the hit, and the bullet zipped past Vlad's ear. Vlad uppercuted the Somalian and then hit him with the butt of his rifle on the head one more time, knocking the Somalian unconsious.

Vlad ran to Book panting. "Vell, these Somalian's are preety fierce"

Davis was making his way threw the massive fire. He was in the prone position trying to not be noticed. A enemy soldier came up from behind him and within a split second the enemy troop was down. Davis had shot him in the head with his DE 50. Davis got up and ran threw a alley. He heard gunshots then they stopped. The next thing he heard was

"fire in the hole."

They were throwing a gernade in his direction. He grabbed his radio.

"Everybody get down now!"

He yelled into the radio before diving around a corner and taking out a advancing enemy troop coming down the other side of the alley. He dove forward and saw Book but the gernade exploded about 15 to 20 feet behind him. Davis hit the ground about 30 feet away from Book. He couldnt move he was dazed and couldnt see straight his vision was blurry. He tried to crawl but it was no use everything was to blurry for him to see where he was going he didnt want to crawl up to a enemy soldier thinking it was one of his soldiers. He just laid there on the ground trying to get his hearing and clear eye site back.

"You two move into this builidng!!" Book has smashed the door of the building in and was taking cover inside under a window where he would occasionally fire at any on coming targets. A large number of somalians where heading their way and they had a Technical (Truck with weapon mounted on the back.) moving along side them. "Grenades are useless against it! They will just throw them back!" He fired at the technical and drew it's fire away from his platoon.






(Please don't have perfect accuracy cause that takes a lot of the fun of the fire fight out.)

Vlad dived to a corner with a big rock behind it as cover, just doding a few shards of incoming grenades.

"HOLD YOUR GRENADES FOR GOD'S SAKE!" shouted Vlad to the recruit marines who were trying to stop the gun with the grenades, which were being thrown back at them. Vlad was about to run into the building Book was firing from, when he saw Davis lying on the ground, and 2 Samolians were running to him to check if he was dead or alive.

Vlad signaled Book to give him cover fire, and Vlad opened a full volley of fire on the Samolians, pinning them down as they took cover. Vlad ran over to Davis as fast as he could, hoping that Book could keep the Samolians pinned down until Davis was put to safety.

Book saw Vlad's signal and he ran to the adjacent window trying to provide what cover he could. He fired with short controlled bursts to keep them from firing back. Unleashing a volley of bullets onto the two somalians, he hoped that they would stay down long enough so that Vlad and Davis could reach safety.

"Reloading!!"

Book attempted to reload as fast as he could and switched his M16 to single shot fire. He took careful aim and when one of the somalians rose up to fire on Vlad, Book took his shot and scored a hit right under the somalian's right eye. Though he had killed him he was still under fire from all directions and was going to need support fire if he is going to make it out alive.

Davis was makeing his way up to his feet when he was grazed by a enemy bullet in his arm. He dropped back to the ground to stay out of the way of the cover fire and got behind a dumbster. He saw Vlad coming and he slowly made his way up to his feet shaking off all the dirt and concret that was on his helmet and body.

"Hey Vlad who the **** is throwing gernades!"

Davis said as he made his way back to the building cautiously with Vlad at his side. They got inside and went to where Book was. Davis looked around and saw the recruits sitting under the windows not doing anything.

"See Book me and Vlad are the best of friends you just caught us at a bad time."

Davis said trying to make them feel a little better. He then turned to all the recruits.

"Now who the **** was throwing gernades because one of our own gernades almost killed me! You dam recruits don't throw a dam gernade unless you are told to!! You hear me!!!"

Davis said as he looked back at his two squad members. He put a hand on Vlads shoulder.

"Sorry about earlier its just that my brother was killed by a russian and what i just said doesnt apply to you your no longer a recruit."

"Vlad, Davis this gunna sound very crazy but I need you both to give me cover fire while I move up behind that Technical." Book ran to the window and dived out making his way into a back alley and straight into a group of Somalians. He opened fire grazing a lot of them and killing a few but most just tried to escape the hell storm of bullets that Book was unleashing. Keeping pace with the fleeing somalians he ran the opposite direction that they had and he finally made it to where the technical was. "Oh God I hope they draw their fire...."

Vlad nodded. "Ve'll talk later, ve kill now" he replied smiling. Vlad reloaded his M16 and went to the window that was adjacent to the Technical.

"Ve should try to cause confusion. Ve shoot, then run to other vindow, shoot again. Make it look like a whole battallion is firing upon them" suggested Vlad to Davis.

((Sorry for the delay))

Kain looked at Vlad nodding "Lets go" he quickly reloaded his Carbine, he slowly took his position at one of the windows taking his aim. "Waiting on your mark Vlad". He watched the somalians run around like crazy.

Theres so many of them, its like 40 vs an entire country

Davis takes a window and tries to confuse the enemy shooting at the enemy troops and the vehicle.

(im going to be gone tommrow saturday and sunday)

Book sat crouched at a corner waiting for his team to divert the fire of the enemy technical. When the technical started to unload on them he decided on what he had to do. Peering out from the corner he rolled a grenade up under the truck but took heavy fire and the wall he was hiding behind was slowly but surely wearing away. The explosive ignited with a great explosion that knocked all of the somalians off their feet but only killed the shooter and two others who had been struck by debris. Right as Book had relaxed and enemy RPG slammed into the wall a short bit away from where he was. For the most part his vision was blurry and he kept hearing a ringing. He was half burried and looked dead from a distance.

The bullet flew down on the Somalians only hitting one or two of the somalians. "Reloading!" Kain screamed as he crouched dropping the carbines clip and slotting enough one in. Quickly changing the carbine from full auto to single shot.

The RPG shook everyone up. "What was that!" he said as he took his head out of the window. A few bullets came back from the window the somalians had spotted them "Oh ****! Their returning fire!!"

Gaven looked around and then at Kain.

"Good job dip sh!t way to give away our position."

Gaven grabbed a grenade from his belt and threw it threw the window and right in the middle of the firing Somalians it blew up and sent them flying. Gaven looked out the window and saw a dumpster below. He reloaded his gun.

"Cover me!"

He yelled and jumped out the window and landed on top of the dumpster. He ran over to Book and got all the concrete and everything off of him. He carried Book over to the empty dumpster he had just jumped on. He opened the lid and put Book in there before he got in the dumpster himself. He heard Somalians coming so that was his first thought. The two waited in the dumpster.

((Im just tryin to make it seem like the somalians can actually realise when their being shot, they're not ****in blind deaf an dumb))

Book opened his eyes and shook his head. For a moment he had forgotten where he was but when he recognized the inside of the old, hot dumpster he instantly remembered that he was in the middle of a war. Reaching for his M16 he came to the sad realization that it was not with him and most likely burried in the debris.

"Damnit.. Davis, leave me here. Head back our teams position. I'm not going to have you die out here because of my failure to take out the skinnies.."

He took a deep breath and pulled his side arm from it's holster and placed it up against the dumpter's side wall. He pulled the trigger and gave a sigh of relief when he heard a corresponding thud.

"They know were in here.."
