RPG SYF: Special Youth Force: Garrotted Threats...

[liamc2]

OOC: As far as I know, you're with the second team.
---

Liam adjusted his headset, hearing the incoming message

?Sup Ryan??

Ryan winced at the static, ?What do we do with the cage??

Liam rolled his eyes, ?The cage is collapsible. Collapse it, it's covered in camouflage paint so all you have to do is lie it flat and leave it, no problem.?

?Ok then, well that?s sorted...?

Liam flicked his headset to narrowband, shutting out any radio signals outside of the two hundred metre radius. Now was no time for distractions. He climbed into the back of the hummer, mounting his Sig Commando on it?s appropriate rest. Andrew took the driver?s seat while Siren took the anti-personnel and Rae armed the anti-aircraft.

Andrew turned on the GPS. ?According to the last beacon we received, the team should be right here.? He jabbed a finger at a flashing red dot on the screen. ?So that?s about a klick or so from our location. We should get there in no time at all, then check for any form of life, camouflage, that kind of thing.?

Liam poked him in the back of the head. ?Less yapping and more driving, we?re on a schedule here y-know.?

Siren peered at the beacon on the GPS, ?Is it just me or is that little dot moving towards us??

?Looks like it,? Rae said, adding her two cents.

Andrew gunned the engine and the hummer started climbing the dunes. Liam shouted out over the roar of the engine, ?Oi! Andrew! Don?t forget, this thing cost about three hundred and fifty thousand, so take it easy ok??

Andrew grinned and merely pushed the pedal to the floor, the hummer took off along the flats, spraying sand out behind it. In the distance a figure was just made out in the haze.

[Raiha]

[COLOR=seagreen][i]Jaudiar stood still, eyes shut tightly, hands stained red and black........the hummer came closer, coming closer than before. She shouldered her pack easily, waiting for them to come.[/i]

Andrew: Hello?

Jaudiar: ....yes?

Andrew: Who...?

Jaudiar: Agent Jaudiar Sevenstar, last of the team.....

Rae: Are the others?

Jaudiar: *held up her hands* All dead.

Rae: Why are you still alive?

Jaudiar: I don't know why.....it shouldn't be this way....[/COLOR]

[liamc2]

OOC: yes Raiha is in the RPG, one of a couple of surprises that were installed.

Edit: First time for small caps O_o;

[size=1]
?Alright then. Get in the hummer and we?ll get moving. We?ve got a base to burn to the ground? Liam smiled when he said this, winking at Rae with her flamethrower.

Jaudiar climbed into the spare seat at the back. Andrew started the engine and turned the hummer around, following the beacon of the other hummer. Andrew took a quick glance at the blue beacon, ?Uh, guys. Should they be that close to the base??

Liam cussed and flicked his headset back to the normal bandwidth, ?Bloody hell Ryan! Move back now!? Only static responded. ?Niomi? Craig?-

-Craig here.?

Liam smirked, Craig was always the one to receive the call, something to do with being a survivor. ?Can you tell me why the hell your jeep is so close to the base camp??

Siren noticed the beacon disappear, and a message flash reporting the signal lost. ?Well, why the jeep [i]was[/i] so close to the camp.?

Craig didn?t respond for a while, sounds of gunfire came across the radio first, ?Yeah, the hummer came under fire, the base location was off. We drove straight into the thing and came under massive fire. We only got away before some tank came along and started raining hell fire on us.? More gunfire. ?The tank flamed the hummer just a second ago, totally destroyed it.?

Rae looked up at the horizon. Black smoke was being belched up into the blue sky. She winced, tightening her grip on the anti-aircraft gun in front of her.

?Fall back then.? Liam ordered.

?Can?t.? It was Ryan?s voice this time, ?we?re penned in by the anti personnel guns on the walls and the tank keeps on blasting away with it?s flamer. It?s only a matter of time before they get one of us.?

Liam cussed again. Everyone seated in the hummer silently agreed with him. Andrew pressed harder on the pedal, the hummer neared a hundred and ten kilometres per hour. He kept to the flats, curving dangerously around the flats. Gradually the silence around them was filled with the clatter of automatic fire, and images of a war zone came into view. All four members of the team were pinned down in a cluster of dunes, the tank was taking pot shots at them, it was only a matter of time before the gunner decided to shoot over the dunes. There was not a soul in sight, only two blackened silhouettes standing behind the scarred bullet proof shielding surrounding the two guns were seen.

Jaudiar stood and started tinkering with the AA gun. Rae was shocked out of a trance and asked what the hell she was doing. Jaudiar faced her and winked, the AA gun dropped horizontal.

?There. That should give the bastards a shock. Blow the hell out of those anti personnel's.?

Rae nodded and swung the gun round, pumping the trigger for all it was worth. The first tower literally exploded into pieces, bullet proof glass falling to the sand and closely followed by a bleeding pulp of a body.

All five members of the hummer gave a small cheer, which quickly vanished when the other tower returned fire, puffs of sand quickly raking their way towards the passengers. The tank?s turret turned, gears grinding. Liam smacked Andrew up the back of the head, shocking him into throwing the hummer forward. A searing jet of fire flew past the rear of the vehicle. Liam could feel the blisters popping on his shoulders as tendrils of fire played past him.

He patted down his smoking vest and ripped the Commando off it?s bracket, emptying it?s magazine into the front of the tank. Sparks scattered over the front, not penetrating, Liam shook his head and reloaded.

?Rae, take out the remaining tower. Andrew continue circling around the tank. Siren grab your rifle and come with me. Jaudiar take Siren?s place.?

Siren rolled her eyes, ?And why exactly should we take orders from you??

Liam?s face was grave, ?Because I?m the one with the explosives and a plan. Not to mention that I?m trigger happy.?

He laughed and jumped off the back of the hummer, spraying the remaining tower with bullets and fumbling with the HE grenade at his waist. Siren followed behind, shaking her head and muttering something about, ?psychotic suicidal bas-

--

The turret released another jet of flame, missing the hummer by inches. Liam smirked and jumped on the back of the tank, followed shortly by Siren.

[i]?Good,[/i]he thought,[i]?We?re on it?s blind side...now to blow up the fuel tank...?[/i]

Siren played with her rifle, keeping an eye on the entrance to the base, ?Remind me why the hell I?m sitting on the back of a WWII tank with you.?
Liam grinned, ?Because I?m a hopeless romantic??

Siren groaned, ?This is [b]not[/b] the time for jokes Liam...?

?Ah, but it is the time for very big explosions however.? Liam jammed two High Explosive grenades onto the fuel tank for the flamethrower, adding as an after thought a radio detonator and a small stick of C4.

He gave Siren the thumbs up, ?Now?s the bit were we run like hell for cover.? He armed the small bomb and leapt off the back of the tank, ordering the others to find cover fast. He jumped behind the dune, checked where everyone was, and pressed the detonate button.

A very, [b] very[/b] large explosion followed.[/size]

[Lady Asphyxia]

[color=blue][size=1]OOC: Well, that threw me for a loop, as you know, Liam. You were there at the time. o.O Ahh well, the more the louder...or something to that effect.

___________

Rae started spraying bullets like there was no tomorrow. Amazingly enough, she was having fun. Or perhaps not so amazingly enough. As only Adam knew, she was an adrenaline junkie. Crawling over to Liam, who'd just run for cover, she yelled at him, trying not to giggle with the noise of the explosion.

"When do I get to use my flame-thrower?"

He just laughed. Rae rolled her eyes and turned to Jaudiar, holding out her hand. "Wonderful to meet you. I'm Raellyra Stanton. I'm currently waiting to you my new flamethrower, because I like them."

Jaudiar nodded. "I'm Jaudiar Sevenstar. I'm waiting to get out of this hell-hole. Nice to meet you."

Rae turned to Liam. "I have no idea what to do next. So I'm asking you. Now what?" [/color][/size]

[liamc2]

Liam reloaded his rifle, pausing to see what was going on in the compound. Silent as the grave. The remaining terrorists must have fled further into it, somewhat terrified. He pondered this. Many third world terrorist regimes have squads of children, why should they be frightened of a mere nine of them? Odd.

Rae snapped him out of his trance and repeated her question.

Liam stood, ?Flush them out of course. Go in, fill up the corridors with flame, lock ourselves in the computer terminal, steal some stuff then exterminate the lot of them.?

Rae nodded and advanced on the compound, the others followed. Liam glanced at the silent Jaudiar. ?Wassamatter? Need ammunition??

Jaudiar nodded, holding up her pistol. ?Yup, all gone, my whole squad pumped it all out on that bloody tank,? she nodded to the smouldering wreck. ?So if you expect me to help, you better provide something.?

Liam raised an eyebrow and glanced at the pistol, ?I haven?t got ammunition for that I?m afraid. And I don?t have any more weapons other than my pistol and you?re going to need something more substantial.? He paused, thinking. Then a spark of inspiration illuminated a memory. He grinned and ran over to the parked hummer, whole body literally clinking with ammunition and the remaining flash bangs. He fished around in the rear compartment of the hummer, Jaudiar walked over, intrigued.

?Here it is.? Liam said while hefting out a large khaki case. ?A FN P90, courtesy of the government and the sometimes useful Adam.?

Jaudiar rolled her eyes and opened the case, pulling out the P90. Liam waited while she stored the spare cartridges in assorted pockets.

He sighed in exasperation, ?Bloody hell! I?m getting in there. If you need help, call one of us on the headset in the case.? He pointed to the blue tooth headset. ?Now if you?ll excuse me, I?ve got some interesting people to meet that I?ve got to shoot.?

[Yoda]

Sorry guys, but I won't be able to post here until Saturday... I sort of broke my monitor. I'm using a school computer right now, and I'm rushing like hell to get this up before I'm caught.

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]Jaudiar rolled her eyes and pulle out the gun.....Rae watched her quizzically.....after a few moments, she slamed her fist down on the cartridge and added something from her headset.[/i]

Rae: Whazzat?

Jaudiar: *flick* My own special toy...

Siren: A sight?

Jaudiar: You could call it that...I prefer, "My little blue friend."

Rae: *chuckle* I think I'm gonna like this gurl......

[i]She brought the rifle up to her face and squeezed off the first shots.....[/i][/COLOR]

[Boba Fett]

OOC: I was away for a [I]little[/I] while, and all this happens?
-------------------
[COLOR=green]Ryan, Craig and Niomi huddle behind the large sand dune right in front of the base, occasionally taking advantage of the heavy fire to shoot back at their determined attackers.

Ryan hears a loud explosion as Liam blows up the Sherman tank. He takes advantage of the momentary chaos to pop his head up over the dune and survey the battle scene.

The base stands in front of them, its front two guard towers blown up and firing at them from behind the low walls. Behind their sand dune is the smoking wreckage of their hummer. The Sherman tank lies off to their right, its metal framework engulfed in flame. Behind and to the right of the tank he can see Liam's position, and notices that they have an extra agent.

Ryan ducks back behind the dune and turns his headphones on.

Ryan: "Liam, what now. My group can't stay here; we don?t have good enough cover. The enemy is also bringing up reinforcements."

Liam: "Can you risk making your way over to our position?"

Ryan: "Yes, but we'll need heavy cover fire."

Liam: "You got it. Whenever your ready, Liam out."

Ryan turns off his headphones and turns to Craig and Niomi.

Ryan: "Were going over to Liam. I'll go first, you cover me."

Craig: "Roger."

Ryan slings his sniper rifle over his shoulder and pulls his pistol from his waistband. Then he dashes from the cover of the dune, heading for the halfway point cover of the flaming Sherman tank?[/COLOR]

[liamc2]

Liam kept his eyes on the entrance to the base, five or six Klashnikov bearing figures were running out. He sighed, things were getting repetitive. He snapped a flash bang from his waist and ripped out the pin.

?You guys might want to shield your eyes or something,? he muttered into the headset.

Liam stood and threw the black grenade right into the attacking squad?s faces. He sunk back down behind the dune and listened for the bang before standing again. All six figures were rubbing their eyes in pain and one or two had even dropped their rifles. Liam un-holstered his Desert Eagle and emptied several rounds into them.

He holstered it again and brought around his rifle, advancing on the base. In the corner of his eye he made out the glass eye of a mounted video camera. Fine. Let them watch. The show was just about to get started.

[tursi]

Niomi grabs her gun and makes sure nothings going to happen. Ryan makes it safely over to laim. she looks at craig who

Niomi: you're next craig. I'll cover you easily.

Craig: are you sure?

Niomi: (smiles) of course, i'm a trained professinal.

Craig nods and jumps and makes a run for it.

[Raquel]

Siren trotted up to Liam and glanced up at the camera... Then waved and pulled a comic face... Liam raised an eyebrow at her and she grinned... Siren slung her rifle over her back and drew out fingerless gloves and a coiled length of rope attached to a small steel grapling hook...

Siren: Shall I begin?

Liam: Just make sure you listen when I tell you I'm about to blow the damned thing up...

Siren cackled and took off to the far side of the base, dodging as many people as she could and shooting the rest...

[Raiha]

[COLOR=seagreen][i]Jaudiar hissed through her teeth, this was not at all to her liking...[/i]

Rae: Why? What could be better?

Jaudiar: I was made for hand to hand comabt.....stealth maneuvers. That sort of shît.

Siren: It's not so bad....

Jaudiar: Ah well, ....what's this? We can't have that now, can we?

[i]She closed one eye and concentrated, the image of the camera flashed straight into her view. Taking the opertunity in both hands, she gritted her teeth and fired.[/i]

Liam: ....about to begin...

[b]BAAAM![/b]

Liam: :twitch:

Jaudiar: That's better.[/COLOr]

[Lady Asphyxia]

[color=blue][size=1] OOC: I know! I was away from HALF A DAY! And then all this comes up...that's it...I'm never leaving the comnputor again! :rolleyes:

_____________

Rae's face was childishly happy. She advanced, letting the flamethrower work its magic. Looking back at Jaudiar, she nodded. "I know what you mean. I was actually trained for information. My last mission was as a spy. Then I got babysitting duties. Besides," Rae paused as one enemy got too close, and she aimed the flamethrower at him, letting rip. "I prefer hand to hand. Its more elegant."

She could hear Liam snort behind her. "Shut up!" She called, laughing.

Jaudiar laughed too, spraying bullets at the same time. [/color][/size]

[Boba Fett]

[COLOR=green]As soon as Siren had finished climbing up the rope and over the wall Abob called to Liam over his headset.

Ryan: "I'm going into the base with Siren. She can't go in there alone."

Liam: "Alright, be careful and cover each other's backs."

Ryan: "Roger, Ryan out."

Ryan took hold of the end of the rope and quickly began to climb. Fifteen seconds later he pulled himself over the top of the wall and onto the guard platform. Three guards lay in a pool of blood, their weapons not even drawn.

Ryan hurried to the edge of the platform and climbed down the ladder to the courtyard. The courtyard was empty, except for a concrete bunker in the center, which was flanked by machine gun emplacements, both weren't manned. These troops must have been the ones Liam got with the flash bang. How very unprofessional to leave their posts...

Ryan found Siren at the bunker door, which she was wiring with C4.

Siren: "Get back, I'm going to blow it."

Ryan: "I'm not stupid, I know C4 when I see it."

Siren: "Coulda fooled me."

They ran to the side of the bunker and huddled there until the charge blew. Then they reloaded their weapons and turned the corner...[/COLOR]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]Jaudiar sighed with resignation and emptied her cartridge onto the floor, replacing it just as quickly.....Rae did likewise, only difference was the smile.[/i]

Rae: I'm hungry.

Jaudiar: .....Power Bar?

[i]She held open her backpack with one hand. Rae dug in quickly....stuffing her face with Chocolate Peanutbutter.[/i]

Rae: How long until it takes effect?

Jaudiar. Ten minutes. Until then, try the sodas in the side pocket.[/COLOR]

[Raquel]

Siren glanced at Ryan... His company was welcome... Although... If he got in her way she wouldn?t hesitate to put him down... She looked up and smiled... There was an air duct just over Ryan?s head... She could get to the main controls easily now... She turned and walked down the hall for a bit... She then whirled and charged him... Before Ryan could figure what she was doing, she vaulted onto his shoulders and pulled the grate up, climbing in... Once up she reached down and offered him her hand... He took it and she pulled him up then replaced the grate... Digging through her things she found a pen light and stuck it in her mouth...

Ryan: How do you know where we're going?

Siren: I don't...

She laughed softly at his bewildered expression...

Siren: Just trust me...

Ryan: Trust you?

Now it was Siren turn to make a face...

Siren: Shut up...

With that she turned and began down the tunnel-like duct

[tursi]

Niomi sits in a barrier with a laptop and a cereal bar, tracking all statisctics of her colleages and statistics on her brother, soon to be aused from his sleep. [I] screw this[/I] she looks to make sure the coast was clear, it was clear allreight, but to silent. She stands up with every nerve at attention. She steps out on to the hard land and looks for her friends.

Niomi: where the hell are they?

[Lady Asphyxia]

[color=blue][size=1] Rae took a gulp of a sodas and stuffed her face with Power Bars. Finishing, she asked Jaudiar, "Do you want some soda?"

She motioned to the backpack. "I've got my own."

"Okay."

Realising that her plait had somehow come free, Raellyra groaned and pulled out another hairtie, slipping it into a ponytail. She'd been sitting there for a while, Rae realised when she developped a twitch in her right thigh. Sighing, she stretched her leg.

"Thanks for the stuff, by the way." [/color][/size]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue]Jaudiar: That look's awful. Hold this.

[i]She plopped down her rifle and picked up a brush and ripped out both hairties. Quickly, she ran the brush through Rae's hair, pulling free all the knots, bits of dust, and other bits and peices that found their way into her hair. Rae grimaced, she wasn't being gentle, but it didn't feel all that bad either....[/i]

Rae: Ow?

Jaudiar: Almost done with the fun part. God, you hair's a mess....when did you last wash it?

Rae: Can't remember.

Jaudiar: ...Of course not.

[i]Deftly manipulating the hair, she twisted and braided quickly, then snapped on two hairties and sat back.[/i]

Jaudiar: Done.

Rae: *feels the side of her head* What did you do?

Jaudiar: Two small braids on either side, combined together in a French braid that spirals down either side. Whaddaya think?

Rae: That was quick...

Jaudiar: When you have three younger cousins in your house, it comes quickly. *pulls up the rifle* Wonder what's for dinner?

Rae: ........-_- Powerbars.[/COLOR]

[Boba Fett]

[COLOR=green]Ryan took several steps back, than took a running jump at the vent that Siren had just disappeared into.

He managed to grab the bottom of the square vent hole and pull himself up and into the dusty vent. It was dark, and he could barely make out Siren's pen light a few feet ahead. He had hooked his backpack around his legs and was crawling on his belly towards her. He was slightly smaller than she was, meaning he could maneuver a little easier.

Suddenly he heard voices coming from below. Siren had stopped and turned off her pen light. She turned around and together they looked out through one of the air ducts into a large rectangular room.

It seemed to be some kind of command center. Computers were everywhere, and men in desert fatigues and wearing black armbands hurried around the room. There were only two guards at the doorway. Obviously this place hadn't been designed with an internal attack in mind.

Ryan *In a whisper*: "Should we attack them?"

Siren: "...[/COLOR]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue]Rae: Sure you don't have any other flavor?

Jaudiar: Might be some Wildberry in there.....I'm not sure.

Rae: Hmmm......*rumage* *rumage* Ahah!

Jaudiar: Wildberry?!?

Rae: Nope, Advil. :D

Jaudiar: Don't tell me....cramps.

Rae: No, headache.

Jaudiar: Maybe we can get the gov't to invest in earplugs instead of guns....since we're so intent on bringing our own equiptment. :)[/COLOR]

[Lady Asphyxia]

[color=blue][size=1]Rae glanced up and smiled before gulping down the Advil with a swig of softdrink.

"Yeah, maybe. But then I wouldn't have gotten these." She gestured to the guns. "Will the acid in the softdrink dissolve the pain killers faster, do you suppose?"

"I dunno. Probably."

"Okay." She took another sip. Resting her hands on her hips, Rae declared "This is getting boring. When's night time? I want to sleep. Maybe do some training under the cover of darkness."

"Training?"

"Flips, handstands, kicks, punches, anything really."

"I'll join you."

"Okay."

"You like that word, don't you?"

"Okay? Yeah, its...okay." She laughed. "I use it alot because I don't like the word good. Good is a bad word."

"Yup. I agree."
______________

OOC: Advil [i]is[/i] pain-killer, isn't it? We don't have it here...I don't think. [/color][/size]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue]Advil is one of the greatest pain killers in the world, next to Vikaden....but Vikaden is about 3 steps down from Morphine...so..........yes. :D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[/COLOR]
[COLOR=seagreen][i]Jaudiar flipped both of her guns into their perspective holsters, then locked down the hummer and flipped backwards. Her landing was neat and clean, ending in a crouch. Rae followed just behind, excecuting a half twist at the same time. Jaudiar winked and stretched a bit, bending down to touch the dirt with her palms, then arching herself backwards to come to rest on her elbows.[/i]

Rae: Who taught you to do that?

Jaudiar: A Ms. Cervantez. One of the best teachers I've ever met. She made me into what I am now.

Rae: ....tough life?

Jaudiar: ....500 and more....

[i]The younger girl looked at Jaudiar quizzically. Her statement made very little sense. Who had lived for 500 years? Jaudiar seemed wrapped up in some distant thought... She looked at the crescent moon then looked down.[/i]

Jaudiar: 500 years since my family lost contact with our ancestors. More is our future.

Rae: ....ancestors?

Jaudiar: I'll explain later.[/COLOR]

[Lady Asphyxia]

[COLOR=blue][size=1]OOC: Okay, thanks. I'll remember it...Advil.
______________

Rae nodded silently, then looked around. "Siren's an infiltration girl, she'd probably join us...do you know where she is?"

"Erm...no. Liam might."

"Liam knows everything. Or he thinks he does. Liam," she called over the headset, "Where's Siren?"

Siren herself answered. "I'm here."

"Gee," Jaudiar remarked. "Helpful."

"In the base. Ryan wants to know if we should attack them. Its not designed for an internal attack. Two guards at a door."

Rae arched her brow at Jaudiar. "Why would they do that? Why protect just the outside?"

"They're fools. They don't believe that the can get hurt. Invincible and all that."
[/size][/COLOR]

[liamc2]

Siren and Ryan were quietly debating over whether or not they should take the command centre or not, Liam and Craig were below them at the main entrance. Liam nodded at Craig and they both kicked the door open and emptied several magazines into many random targets. When the room had settled, Liam noticed Ryan and Siren through the ventilation hatch. He nudged Craig in the ribs and pointed to them.

?Gee wiz guys! Take your time already. I mean it?s not as though Adam is going to carpet bomb this place in three hours is it??

Ryan?s eyes bugged out and Liam smirked, he wandered over to the computer terminal laughing all the way. Siren smacked Ryan up the back of the head and knocked out the mesh cover of the shaft, jumping out into the room.

Liam brought up the nearby monitor.

?How thoughtful,? he said to the corpse at his feet. ?Thank you for not logging out, it makes my job so much easier.?

Liam pulled his laptop, several USB and Fire wire cables from his backpack and started jimmying the cables into their respective ports. He dragged the entire C and D drives to his laptop?s second hard drive. No time to be picky, there wasn?t any time to waste.

A small notification window popped up on the screen, something about ?You need an Administrator?s password to copy files off the server.? Liam chuckled and overrode it on his laptop. A few minutes later Liam had the entire server loaded onto the hard drive.

?All done.? He said. ?Let?s get the hell out of here and call in an air strike. We?ve got a few more of these suckers to infiltrate yet.?
