Simon's eyes narrowed behind his mask as he watched Blade's transformation through his sniper scope. He couldn't help but admire her efficiency and adaptability, even as a twinge of concern flickered through him.

Ross fumbled slightly with his gear, his large hands shaking slightly as he changed into his stealth attire. "Yah. Fräulein Blade," he whispered, his voice a mix of nervousness and determination.

As the team quickly adapted to Blade's instructions, the atmosphere grew tense with anticipation. The darkness seemed to press in around them, hiding both dangers and opportunities.

Simon's voice crackled softly over the comms. "I've got eyes on the perimeter. Two guards at the north entrance, another pair patrolling the east side. Blade, what's your play?"

Blade listened carefully to Simon's report, she analyzed her next plan and spoke through the comms, "Set up a distraction on the east side. When they move, We'll slip in through the north."

Blade coordinates with Simon to create a distraction that lures the guards away, then quickly infiltrates through the north entrance while they're focused on the diversion.

Observing the guards actions, Blade and her team sneaked swiftly towards the guards taking them down in silence. Her moves are fluid. Successfully taking down the first targets without anyone's notice. She gestures to her team to take the enemy's attire to change while they take the next target.

Simon watched through his scope as Blade swiftly and silently took down the guards. His admiration for her skills was evident in his quiet "Bloody hell, Blade. Your name fits your personality. Sharp and dangerous.." over the comms, he said.

Ross's eyes widened behind his mask, clearly impressed by Blade's efficiency. He quickly moved to help the team change into the enemy's attire, his large hands now steady with focus.

As the team prepared to infiltrate further, Simon's voice came through again, low and urgent. "You've got a patrol coming your way, 30 seconds out. Three hostiles, armed. Watch yourselves."

Blade's team tensed, ready for action. The compound loomed before them, its secrets waiting to be uncovered. The next move was crucial, and all eyes were on Blade, awaiting her signal.

Blade heard Simon's warning, she immediately found a spot to hide. Her dark attire blended in the shadows while the others ordered to hide and wait for her signals.

As the target came into view, her flexible body appeared from the shadow, a combination of her hand and strength, she twists the man's head so fast while she pierced the knife on the other ones neck. Before the two fell, she captured their heavy form and signaled the team to come And take away the body quietly.

Simon's breath caught as he witnessed Blade's swift and deadly efficiency through his scope. "Impressive work, Blade," he murmured over the comms, a hint of pride in his voice.

Ross and the team quickly moved to dispose of the bodies, their movements careful and precise. The Austrian soldier's eyes darted to Blade, a mix of awe and nervousness dancing in his gaze. He never knew, nor any idea that their lady sergeant was this deadly and efficient. He felt a shudder creeping down his spine. Like hundred spiders crawling on his skin. Her angelic face was the opposite of her devious strength and capability. Ross couldn't help but swallow in silence. His palm sweating only upon witnessing how dicisive and deadly, Blade, was.

As the team regrouped, Simon's voice crackled through again. "You've got a clear path to the main building now. Intel suggests the data is in a secured room on the second floor. Watch for internal security systems."

The compound's main building loomed before them, its windows dark and uninviting. The team looked at Blade, awaiting her next move as they stood on the precipice of their primary objective.

Blade didn't trust what Simon said. She senses something more in the main building. She is sure the enemy was not as stupid to just leave the strictly unguarded place. She has a serious trust issues in terms of their missions. She signaled her team to wait more until she is sure that the area is safe

Simon tensed as he observed Blade's hesitation through his scope. "Blade, what's the holdup?" he whispered urgently over the comms, a hint of concern in his voice.

Ross shifted nervously beside Blade, his tall frame coiled with tension. He leaned in close, his voice barely audible. "Fräulein Blade, is something wrong?"

The main building stood silent before them, its dark windows revealing nothing of the potential dangers within. The air was thick with anticipation as the team waited for Blade's next move, trusting her instincts despite the seemingly clear path ahead.

Simon's voice came through again, low and insistent. "Izy, talk to me. What are you seeing that we're not?"

Blade narrowed her gaze towards the darker part of the building, on the window, she noticed a dark figure moving several steps away. She knew it. They are just waiting. 

"You guys stay here. I'll be back. She strictly said before going back to get the enemy's attire and slipped on it. Taking Ross with her.

"Prepare yourself newbie. We'll hunt a mouse up there." She whispered to him walking casually towards the seemingly clear building.

Those fuckers thinks they can deceive her, She'll show who's wiser than them.

Simon's voice came through the comms, tense and low. "Blade, what the hell are you doing? This wasn't the plan."

Ross swallowed hard, his massive frame taut with nervous energy as he followed Blade. "Jawohl, Fräulein Blade," he whispered, his German accent thick with determination.

Blade and Ross slowly but carefully approached the building, the silence became oppressive. The dark windows loomed above them, hiding potential threats. Blade's instincts were on high alert, her eyes scanning for any sign of movement.
