*A large group is coming, get outta ther- No, no-* A loud crash from comes outside and then an explosion not too far from us.
B0L7; Who's still with us?
GL7D; That hurt a lot.
F0X; Tango's alive, but knocked out.
GL7D; Orange?
Orange lays there with a large gaping hole in his chest. The explosion killed him almost in an instant.
B0L7; He's gone.
Gladius pushes himself up, checks himself, then hunches over.
GL7D; The cooler in this thing shut off.
After taking Orange's dog tag, I jump up and check myself.
B0L7; I'm hit.
F0X; How bad?
B0L7; A flesh wound. I'll be fine.
F0X; *I've got-"
Gladius rips off the heavy helmet and the leggings. "This'll work." He picks up Orange's shotgun and throws the strap
over.
"Major Gladius requesting backup!" I sigh, "I don't think that went through." A door smashes open as Fox walks with Tango, "We gotta go, right now." I let Gladius take point. He was the one with the armor and machine gun, after all. He kicks open the door and clears a path.
Fox tip toes over the trip wire and goes through. Before I close the door, a group of men point their guns at me as one shouts, "There they are!" I pull out my rifle and started suppressing their advance.
My gun clicks, I pull out the mag, throw it at the trip wire before slamming the door. I think a bullet got my back. "Damn. No fireworks?"
The whole building collapses with a yell. An expert had rigged that hideout. Way ahead, Fox hides behind cover as Gladius unloads the m70. "Bolt! Get Tango out." I whisper under my breath, "Ready, cheetah?"

I smile as I zoom up to them in mere seconds. I scrape to a stop and throw her over my shoulders like a fireman. The alley to our left is the only way out and a man turns the corner, smiling. I hug the alley's wall,
"No way out Glad!" He looks at Fox, "You're up!" She grabs at her launcher and stands up, firing one shot off before getting blown to the floor.
Gladius then stands up and yells, "Come on!" He unloads yet another box from his gun as Fox loads another shell. "The vest barely took it, firing!" She leans just over the barricade to aim and fireS before plopping back behind cover.
Glad marches forward, "Bolt, Fox, come on!" His gun clicks. "Damn!" I yell to him, "Any more boxes?!" He grabs the gun by the barrel and swings around the corner. "Don't let them leave!" Fox shoots off another grenade to cover our escape.
After stepping over countless bludgeoning victims, Gladius already secured one of their cars. He rips off the heavy,
bullet riddled bomb vest and drops it. The arms were dented here and there but everything else was untouched.
"We're getting outta here." Fox hops in and shoots another grenade into the alley. I jump into the back and lay Tango down.
