Chapter 16

"Gaz, Soap!" you waved at them as you exited the helicopter, Ghost walking beside you. They both waved back before making their way toward you.

"It's good to see you both again, we could definitely use L.T.'s experience with this mission." Gaz acknowledged and Soap nodded in agreement.

"Let's head inside first and we can discuss the plan then." Ghost said as he started making his way to the building.

Once inside the building, you made sure there were no spying devices just in case. Shephard was still out there after all.

"After we infiltrated the safehouse in the scrapyard, a few shadow soldiers appeared and tried to kill us." Soap nodded your way.

"If we didn't have Farah's backup, we would have been long gone by now" he continued on.

"I thought we were done with Shadow company?" Ghost asked, "There is still more?"

"Those were my thoughts exactly, we managed to get Intel from one of them after a successful capture. It seems like there are multiple leaders, and Shephard is acquainted with them." Gaz explained. He proceeded to pull out an old blueprint and put it on the table. The blueprint belonged to the facility you were going to infiltrate.

"Did we lose anyone in the future you saw?" Soap asked.

"Originally, only you were going to infiltrate the facility, and it was a failed mission," you said

"But that's changed now, the enemy's plan is probably still the same. They expected you last time. This time, we can use a different way." you continued.

"What was the mistake I made in that future?" Soap mumbled, he was pouting a bit.

"It wasn't my intention to offend you, you didn't make any mistakes, they just overwhelmed you by number," you explained.

"You and Squirrel will get on one of their delivery trucks, Me and Gaz will take overwatch. Once inside, plant C4s under as many vehicles as possible. We will take down the enemies near you, so take their uniform and pretend to be one of them to find the exact source of the Intel we are searching for." Ghost explained the plan.

Soap had a hand on his mouth, his shoulders were shaking. Gaz looked confused

"Who the hell is Squirrel?" he asked. Ghost nodded his head towards you.

"I never agreed to take it as a code name" you exclaimed. At this point, Soap wasn't even trying to hide the fact he was wheezing

"Why Squirrel?" he managed to ask between his wheezes, looking at you.

"I don't know, ask him" you gestured at Ghost, who shrugged in response.

"Do you have better ideas? You asked me to give you a name and I did." there was a hint of amusement in his tone.

"This asshole is definitely enjoying it," you thought to yourself as you turned to look at Soap, whose face was completely red now.

"That's why it's Squirrel, if you have any better ideas, let me know before this gets documented on paper" you sighed. He shook his head in return.

"I think Squirrel suits you" a weird wheeze flew out of him, turning Gaz into a wheezing mess as well. You shook your head at them, before making your way toward an empty room to prepare for the mission.

The warehouse was full of weapon boxes and missile containers. It was easy to navigate through the guards because of how many containers there were. You hid in one of the boxes near the door, while Soap hid in one of the missile containers.

You felt the box get carried and thrown into the truck, while the missile was loaded into another truck. The ride was long, and you couldn't talk since there were patrols to guard the cargo.

After what felt like forever, the truck finally stopped. You waited until you couldn't hear any footsteps before slowly prying open the top.

"Wait for my signal" Ghost's voice echoed through your radio as you were about to leave the box.

"There are multiple soldiers near you, hold your position." He commanded. You slowly went inside the box again, trying your best not to draw any attention.

"Go now." you quietly sneaked out of the box, Ghost guiding you through the soldiers.

"I need you to go to where Soap is, and get him out. He can't open the container from the inside." you gave him a thumbs up, knowing he can see you.

A soldier was looking in the general direction you were supposed to cross to get to Soap, and it took him a few minutes before he turned to watch the other side.

"Go now"

you ran towards the container, checking the area around you before opening the container. Soap quietly slipped by, nodding his head at you before signalling you to move towards the ladder.

"No, hold your position" Ghost's voice echoed through the radio again.

"Gaz, move until you have visual on the other soldier, we will take them down at the same time. Soap, Squirrel," you heard a muffled laugh.

"As soon as the soldiers are down, take their uniform and hide their bodies away," he ordered.

"Yes sir" you both whispered.

"Go now"

you ran to the left side, while Soap went to the right side. Dragging the body to a dark point between the containers.

"I can't take his uniform. It's too big, they will know I'm not one of them" you said.

"Change of plans, you will have Soap *find* you and take you to confinement, but only if one of the soldiers finds you. For now, continue on planting C4s" Ghost said

"Roger that L.T." you responded.
