"Send in the Sweepers" General Knupp gave an order to his firs commanding officer,"and send in the PILGRIM for test trial".
" Affirmative General, Sweepers ready and the PILGRIM is being assembled", officer Kohl answered with a sadistic smile.
He then proceed to instruct the rest of his squad and the special engineer team.
"Have you heard,we are going in with the Pig", Adrian said to me, while I wasn't even paing attention this was my firs infiltration mission ever. If i could i would cry, but I don't want to let my friends see me weak.
"Amm... I was in my own world, what did you say". Eliot honestly replied.
"You hones fucker, I said that we are going in with the Pig" Adrian says whilst poking my chest.
"Shit dude we are the..."
"Listen up, we are meeting in ten minutes in the hangar, grab your gier and go. We are leaving in 20 mins. Time to kick some SEU heads. Move out Franks don't like waithing", officer Kohl was in the mood, he never liked giving direct orders. That means this is going to be fun.The Vector helicopter was amazing, not jus by its look but by its performances. It was from birds eye view a cross shaped with two rotors on the endes of a line. Both rotors looked like jet engines. The cockpit looked like a snake, diamond shape. The entrance was at the back where a door lowers for vehicles to enter, but this time it will be used for jumping out.
"Let's go people, thirty seconds for liftoff", the pressure was so big i couldn't hear anyone i just sat the and waited for somthing to move me.
Liftoff was smooth but the best part is that when the Vector reaches a certain altitude its engines turn horizontally and pick up speed transforming into a jet.
Our radios burst out by a female voice," PEN has been deactivated, scortch procedure completed.
The P.E.N. (partical energy nuke) was a ground to satelite and then back to ground nuklear laser. It is hot as a sun and it can be wide for 10 km max.
I tried to focus on the mission, sweep and kill, my Steyr AUG rifle machine gun was clean and oiled up to the point that i won't need to clean it for days.
"Entering targeted aria in 1 minute" the same female voice said. I lowered my gas mask to my face. Adrian pat my shoulder and said in our intercom" first one to kill gets a free beer, but if you die i get the insurance but if I die you get my two cousins".
"Sounds fair", we shook hands and stood up as it was time to go.
"Touchdown im 5....4...."the pilot yelled in our radios,"3....2.....fry them". The doors opened up and we walked out. When we got out everybody frose. It was all red like vein blood dark red. Fire everywhere for a mile there was just read, but when the Vector flew up, behind was a in ruins military base.
"This isn't a theatre,move it" the officer said with a little lower voice.
"The Pigs are runing late" someone said.
"Don't worry", officer said with a little more enthusiasm", more fun for you guys".
Entering the base was like entering hell, burning corpses everywhere, dust, smoke falling debris.
Our target was to split into two groups and one group stays in the streets while the other sweeps the buildings.
Who knows how mutch time has passed. Eliot, Adrian, and the rest of the team, five more people, sweeped the buildings. Inside wasn't pretty at all. Half burnt bodies and still burning limbs, thank goodness for the gas masks or the smoke and burning flesh would definitely kill you.
After finishing the last building they regrouped with the rest of the team.
"All clear" Adrian reported.
"Where are the enemy, there are just corpses hear", a soldier said looking around.
"This isn't just a sweep mission", everyone was shocked," this is a sweep and keep mission. Witch means a counter attack is on the way. So find your places and dig in".
Afther several hours siting in a cramped up, burned and hot trenche Elio started to feel sleepy. It was overpowering, it was like a battle but with the slowest flow of time.
His head started to colapse and his eyelids are flickering.
Adrian was looking trough his 50 cal. Beret sniper rifle. That thing can pack a punch. It can blow your torso to shreds.
Adrian and Eliot had their firing routine. Eliot was like a shield and Adrian a javelin. But the problem was they are working with more people now. They didn't know each other so communication was a little bad.
But thanks to their masks it showed friendly dots oriented on their visors.
Adrian noticed that Eliot was falling asleep so he slapped him waking him instantly.
"Thanks I needed it" Eliot sad sarcastically.
"My pleasure,love". He winked back.
"Whell darling i don't want to break it to you but I am bored and sleepy". Eliot started scratching the area where he got the slap.
"I will have my revenge", he thaught in himself.
Adrian stood up and went to the officer who was walking from soldier to soldier. They started talking about something. The offucer noded and Adrian ran back saying," hey assman you and i are going for a walk".We walked on the scorched ground, scouting the area.
Nothing.
"I hate this mission, it would be beter for us to move back to the Snow group close to the Slavic lands ( Russia,Poland,Slovakia...), there sure are a loth of fighting not t....". A flash blew up in front of Adrian making him fall and screaming that he is blind.
Eliot lifted his gun but out of nowhere a gigantic 3 meter high and 2 meter wide robot like soldier grabed him and lifted him above the ground.
Two more fell from the sky.
Eliot couldn't scream or move, because the robot grabed his colar and twisted it making him choke.
"What unit are you" said the guy holding him up, relising the grip so that he can speak.
Eliot being shocked said "1st Sweeper department. Now let us go you damn Pigs".
The robots let go and started to laugh.
"You guys shoul have seen how pathetic you looked. You know not to let your guard down".
"Fuck you" Adrian said cleaning his eyes,"who taught you to waste flash bangs, idiot".
"We should get to the officer" said the robot,"and call me Huan".Returning to the base the faces of the soldiers was a shock, the officer had his sadistic face again.
Eliot sat near a burnt tree and put his gun on his knees. For the day he was wasted and just wanted some shuteye.
Adrian went to the top of the tallest and mostly stable building and began to scan the field.
Afther a few minutes of sight seeing he took his eyes of the scope and looked at his watch.
All of a sudden he felt a push from his chest and the cramping of his body. He looked at his chest and saw an arrow sticking out with something flashing.
Tears started to roll down his cheeks and looked up waiting for the arrow to explode, but for some moments nothing happened. At first he was shocked, than confused, and the burning in his chest started making him scream.
Eliot woke up grabing his gun and running somewhere, for a moment he looked where is the scream comming from. The officer and some soldiers ran to the building, he than ran with them. Getting up he saw Adrian laying and holding his chest. The officer kneeled down next to him. for a moment he looked at the wound than the blinking light caught his eye and in a mater of seconds he yelled," back to the trenches get to cover, artillery strike incom....," a explosion hit the buildings tipping it ower and slaming to the ground.
