New Recruit

Chapter 7

As your helicopter touches down around half a kilometer from the embassy in Jerusalem, where the president was when the terrorists, which you all have agreed to call 'White ISIS' struck and took over. On the way they confirmed four dead VIPs, one of which is the Israeli first lady.

The helicopter touches down and Ela hops out, you and the team follow closely. You all weave through the streets, coming to a police blockade around 50 metres from the capitol building. An officer approaches you all and introduces himself.

"Hello, I am Officer Uri Bataan. We have four confirmed dead, one being our first lady, god rest their souls. The terrorists have not made any demands but have made it abundantly clear they have a chemical bomb with a 50 kilometre radius that will go off if anyone decides to mess with them."

"How's it going Officer Bataan, I'm y/n and this is my team, we've been sent to deal with these thugs and bring home your people. We just need you to get us a defuser case to deal with the bombs and jam all radio transmitters so they can't be detonated." You reply nonchalantly.

"I hope you know what you're doing sir!" Officer Bataan says as he strides away to get you your things.

"Alrighty, get those drones up and running, don't get spotted and stay sharp. I pulled a favor from Grace so we'll have camera access as soon as she sees the signal." Ela says, glancing apprehensively at you.

"There we go again, the apprehensiveness." You whisper into her ear while sending the drone inside.

"What? oh fuck off y/n, it's not whatever you think it is."  Ela replies quietly, you can see her flush red just a smidge.

"Whatever. If we make it out of this, you owe me some good sex then. Alright?"  You reply in a low, teasing voice.

"If you'll shut up, whatever." She shrugs.

Refocusing, you see your drone find the five hostages, right next to a chemical bomb. The president is there, the US representative, two zip tied soldiers, and the corpse of the first lady. You place a marker there for everyone's drones and HUD glasses. You then follow a terrorist walking down the hallway and see the other bomb, sitting two rooms away and heavily guarded. You mark it and search for a good entrypoint, which you find the next room over, you mark it and tell everyone to get a suppressor.

"Sir, I've got your defuser case, top of the line, only 20 seconds to defuse. And here's your jammer. It works for five minutes, so once it starts everything is jammed for only five minutes."  Officer Bataan explains as he walks back over, clutching a standard issue defuser case.

"Much obliged Officer. We'll be moving in to clear out the embassy, once it's clear I'll call you." Ela says before you have a chance to respond.

You all stack up on the door you marked, Ela gives you the go-ahead and you slowly and silently open the door, stabbing the lone terrorist guarding it and dragging his body outside.

"Masks on." You whisper as you fasten your gas mask on. Everyone follows suit and you all move into the first bombsite, clearing it effortlessly.

"Alright, get that jammer on as I start the defuser."  You say over comms to Ela.

"Activating" She replies.  She then gives you an Ok hand gesture. The defuser whirs to life, quieter than when you were training. After 20 seconds you take the defuser, and follow Vadim down the hallway, checking every door until you get to the presidential office. On a count of three, you flashbang in there, clearing every terrorist out and the rest of the squad starts setting up defensive positions. You pull out the extra ceramic plates and pass them to the President, the US embassyman and the soldiers, whom you free and arm with enemy weaponry. You then take a plate and put the bag on the president's desk, where the squad claims their plates.

After the festivites you plant the defuser down, and hear gunfire as the terrorists hesrd you kill their friends.

"Brace!" You yell as everyone quickly gets into cover and watches the doorway. What comes through is terrifyingly familiar. A bomber, these guys find the toughest fucker in the room and take them to Allah via Jihad bomb. You all quickly start pouring lead into the head of this man and he falls after you all spend a collective thirty rounds. More enemies follow, some covering their allies as they move up to the door, others moving away. You hear a hatch blow up above you and you blindly throw a nitro cell up and detonate it, meriting around ten screams of agony.

"Holy shit!" Ryan yells! "I'm ---" You worriedly look over and the front of Ryan's face is no longer a face, it's just blood.

You hear the defuser stop and realize now is the time to exfiltrate. Standing up out of cover you one tap the guys immediately in the door, slam it shut, and barricade the locks for the time being. You then break a window and toss Ryan's corpse out, grab the president, tell the others to get a guy, and rappel out the window to the ground.

You all rush to the barricade where the soldiers and embassyman thank you and the president hugs each member of your team.

Six hours later and every 'White ISIS' terrorist is either dead or captured.  You all head to a hotel for the night on Six's orders while Ryan's corpse is shipped back home. Ela insists on a room with you, and the others look at you with jealous stares.

"What, team leaders sleep together." You say in a mock serious tone. Ela looks at you like you're a nimrod and you all retire to your rooms.
