The Soldiers

In Filght

As the plane slowly ascended to 30,000 feet the mission briefing played through the headset.
"Alright, so as you already know we are flying to Mexico. But what you don't know is why exactly. Well, over the course of  3 months  a gang code named 'Santa Blanca' has blown up 4 of our embassies. Now the President has ordered you to take out this gang. You will meet up with a contact who knows the whereabouts of your targets, meet up with this person ASAP. Move under the cover of darkness and don't trust anyone. " And with that  over Adam kicked back and relaxed. His eyes slowly closed as bad and insulting puns went around, along with the occasional laugh.

A Few Hours Later...
Adam got thrown up for a split second, the seat belt holding him in place. He awoke to the sound of explosions either side of the plane.

Behind him he saw 4 parachutes. And the C130 slowly making its way towards the earth, they seemed to glide down to earth for what seemed like years. He lead his team to a field, which he thought was a good place to land. But as his team got ever closer to the field Adam realised what a bad choice that was. What seemed like an army of black figures stood in the field waiting and watching. As Adams foot hit the rock hard ground 5 masked men tackled him to the ground, Adams natural instincts made him wiggle free. But a sudden electric shock from a taster made him freeze. Then his whole world went dark...
