Lieutenant Parsons: Almighty Rising

Chapter 3 - A Long Journey

0800 hours - outside of Pyongyang

at a makeshift airbase made outside of Pyongyang, Commander Field was directing a team of soldiers to loading supply drops and relief good on transport trucks then caught Jack approaching from his right. "morning, Jack" Field positively greeted him. "morning, commander" he greeted back with a nod. "you're just in time, come along now" Field walked off and signalled Jack to follow him to a make shift armory where they find soldiers testing modified weapons. "we just had them transported with the help of the RAF, perhaps you would like to try one of these things" Field said as he picks up and inspects what looked like a heavily modified WA2000 rifle, the magazine was twice it's standard size and the barrel was extended. "Walther WA2000, heavily modified by the Kirijo Group and the Igirisu Corporation to become the WA50" Field said as he gives the rifle to Jack. "whoa...bloody hell..." Jack said as he held the rifle. "well go on, try it" Field said. Jack then crouched down and aimed at a target just over 1000 meters away from him, he then aimed for the head and pulled the trigger, firing a .50 caliber bullet five times faster than a normal sniper rifle, hitting the head of the target with good accuracy. "whohohohohoa, this is sick" Jack said before standing up. "pretty cool, innit? we've been working on that thing for over a year now" Field replied. "come along now, Jack. if you're gonna make your way to Ayatsuki, you're gonna need transportation" Field said as he leads Jack to a sports car covered in a veil. "lemme guess...a spy car?" Jack curiously asked his commnding officer. "not exactly" Field answered before throwing off the veil, revealing a customized Jaguar XK-R coupe. "this...is Project Akagi Mark 2, named after one of the famous racing grounds in Japan and it's the sequel to the car you almost destroyed during the little race to Buckingham. it's complete with .50 caliber Brownings, missile cannons, multi-terrain drive modes such as trans-atmospheric, bulletproof defense system, a BMW V12, nitrous and a main control computer on the interior side of the windscreen featuring japanese UI because why not?" Field said, introducing Jack to his new car. "and you put all of that in here?" Jack asked. "why of course, it used to belong to a patriotic boy racer from Gloucestershire and now it's a fast moving arsenal and i'm giving it to you" Field answered as he gives him the keys. "thanks..." Jack said as he took the keys. "but hold on, there's still more to this than a rifle and a jag" Field replied before taking a briefcase from under a nearby table then opening it, revealing an arm terminal to Jack. "this isn't just a military smart watch, this arm computer will help you hack into any computer or device that are encrypted. it can also be used to remotely control the weapons systems of either an AC-130 or a Titan attack variant, you can even control a drone." Field explained before closing the briefcase. "will that be it?" Jack asked. "i'm afraid so and don't forget, you better come back alive with all of these in good condition, Her Majesty wants to meet the man who killed Kim Jong-Un. now go and get ready, you'll be deployed in a couple of hours" Field said with a nod. Jack then nodded and took the briefcase and the rifle.

1300 hours - enroute to Ayatsuki, Japan

after successfully landing, Jack drove the Jaguar XK-R coupe down the motorway at over 300 kilometers per hour. the holographic display on the windscreen then displayed current objectives and current distance to his destination.

"Primary Objective: rendezvous with friendly contact"

"Secondary Objective: locate fuel station"

"Distance to Waypoint: 118,542 meters"

as the number of meters decreased rapidly, he continued racing down the motorway but once he was close to the prefecture, he was alerted that the fuel level have decreased to 41 percent. despite that there is still enough petrol for him, he decided to stop at the nearest fuel station. he steps out of the vehicle, opened the tank's lid and inserted a nozzle into the hole, he then began replenishing the car's fuel levels. once the meter displayed that the tank has been filled, he returns the nozzle and went into the convenience store for refreshments. almost six minutes later, he returned to his car and proceeded with his journey. he continued driving in the same speed at over 300 kilometers, almost bored of driving in a straight motorway.

an hour and a half later - Ayatsuki, Japan

at a police station built in the center of the abandoned borough of Taiyou Hill in the city of Ayatsuki, several cultists can be seen patrolling the perimeter, armed with M16 assault rifles, Winchester 1200 shotguns and a selection of submachine guns abandoned by the military. in the superintendant's office, there stood Kinshiro Akaza, leader of the notorious cult that he formed during the early 1980's. he stood there and stared out the window and watching the cultists guard the abandoned station then suddenly recieving a phone call from a possible colleague, "Akaza desu" the cult leader said in japanese. "has the deal been set?" a voice from the phone asked. "yes, we'll be meeting tomorrow night, i'm sending the coodinates" he said as he bent down to the laptop on his desk, typing in the GPS coordinates then sending them through a wireless network. "just make sure you bring along some good bodyguards, we had trouble with some commandos so that's why i'm requsting them....okay....hai...arigato" he suddenly ends the call then pockets his phone. he then stood back up and stared out the window once again, gazing at the post-apocalyptic like scenery of Taiyou Hill.
