The Ghosts are now in the chopper in their way to the testing site which has the drone which contains information about Jace Skell's whereabouts. They're now above it and Ryder looks down.

Ryder: "Shit...that's the drone. Right there."

Ryder points to a ground drone.  A yellow one which is shown to be armed with A 1.50 calibre machine gun and a grenade launcher.

Sillimanite: "That thing is menacing. How do you plan to take it out?"

Ryder: "Jamie's RPG will do the trick. Along with my new grenade launcher. Let me land this chopper first."

The chopper lands near the base, but no Sentinel soldier there notices it. Everyone hops out and loads up.

Ryder: "We're going loud, so be sure to find some good cover there."

Jamie: "You mean all out?"

Ryder: "Yep. Alright everyone, on my mark...Now!"

The Ghosts rush into the site and open fire on the Sentinel soldiers in the area, killing most of them and the drone arms itself and it engages.

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

Ryder gets behind a wall with Sillimanite and Ryder shoots at the drone, damaging it's armour slightly and it strafes to the right.

Ryder: "Those wheels are allowing it to strafe sideways! Just try and hit it!"

*BANG*

It nearly shoots off Jamie's head but they quickly hide behind a barrier. Ryder shoots at the drone's wheels but nothing happens.

Ryder: "Those wheels are tough! Just try and hit its head or something!"

Tido: "This thing doesn't have a head!"

Ryder: "Shoot the camera. It needs that to see, and try and expose its core!"

They shoot at the drone and a part of the core is exposed. Jamie gets up and aims their rocket launcher and the drone's exposed part.

*BANG*

*WOOSH*

*BOOM*

The drone is struck and it starts exploding before blowing up ina. bigger explosion. The Ghosts cheer and laugh.

Ryder: "Well done! Alright I'll get what we came for.'"

He walks to the drone and it's revealed to be a GPS card which he grabs from its carcass. Ryder then realises that he must put the card into the antenna which is in the base so he can receive more useful intel.

Ryder: "Alright then. Sillimanite, stay here with the others. You 3, watch her back!"

Tido: "Copy that!"
