Operation Purple Pyre
The Commander in Central wanted to know who was going to be on my squad from here on out. He told me that I could only bring three other soldiers with me for the first few missions, until he thought I was ready; the same went with Chris.I didn't like or agree with the fact that we could only bring three soldiers with us, but Central is the Commander so I could not disobey his order.
I walked back to squad one's rec. room. Both squads had their own rec. rooms and fitness rooms, but we were of course aloud to go over to the other squad's rooms. When we're at the base, and not on a mission, there aren't really many restrictions; the only real rule is that the squad that's not on standby, has a curfew so they we have to go to bed. Otherwise it's actually quite fun, everyone is usually just laid back and relaxing.
When I walked into my squad's rec. room I saw most of my men just sitting around talking. At the bar, there was Fenske and Davis of my squad with SeaBass of Chris's squad. I heard that Chris had his first mission today, and that everyone returned safely. I was surprised to see SeaBass in our rec. room as usually the squad that had a mission usually just ate and relaxed in their own room. I walked up the bar to see what the guys were talking about.
"What's up DJ" Fenske said to me as I walked up.
"Not much, just wondering what you guys are talking about."
"I was just telling the guys about how Jake said he saw this alien "materialized" right in front of him, and he killed it. No one really believes him." SeaBass said turning directly to face me.
"Well that does sound like Jake, well nice chat, but I got to get to sleep, my squads on standby tonight." I replied to SeaBass. "That goes for the rest of Strike Team 1! Get ready for rest, we have a busy night tonight!" I said to the entire room.
I went back to my room, still thinking who will be on my fixed squad, I decided I'd sleep on it, and give the final list to Central when I woke up.
March 7th, 2215-4:05am
"Strike Team 1, to the Situation Room." buzzed the intercom, to our rec. room.
"Alright everyone get to the Situation Room" I commanded.
We all moved out the the rec. room, and up to the Situation Room; when we got there I looked over the room to make sure everyone was there, it seemed as if everyone was.
"Alright Strike Team 1, we have reports of abductions in Hong Kong, China. We're certain that the aliens are still there. You guy's objective is to eliminate all hostiles" Central said, walking up to us. "Now, DJ, you have your squad fixed right?"
"Yes sir, I do " I replied. "Fenske, Davis, and Hill, suit up. We have a mission to do. Everyone else, get some rest."
"Yes sir" they said in unison.
The four of us all gathered at the hanger 20 minutes later. We were all ready for our first real mission, cause up in till this point we only had simulations. I jumped into the ship that would take us to our mission, followed by the rest of my squad. We put our armor on and gathered up our ammo, we were ready.
Whence we took off, I could see my squad was nervous, hell who could blame them, I was even nervous, but we had to stay focused on our mission, we're in the big league now, no longer are we in college ROTC. I looked at my watch when we arrived at the drop zone, it read 5:14am. We were about to step off the ship in to enemy territory.
"Alright everyone, let's focus on this mission ahead of us here. Yes this is our first mission, but I promise all of us will be fine. Now we've got a job to do, so I say we get off this ship and kick some alien ass!"
It seemed to have gotten the guy's hyped up a little, because I could see the fire burning in all their eyes. I was the first one off the ship followed by Fenske and then Davis and Hill.
"Alright, Fenske, Davis you two move on the left, Hill your with me we'll take the right."
Fenske and Davis moved to the left as commanded, and took cover behind a van. Hill and I ran over to a car not to far from the other guys. When we got to the car, we saw two aliens run across the road, not to far ahead of us. Hill fired at them, but was to slow, the aliens took cover in the shadows of a building.
"Fenske Davis, move around see if you can see them" I commanded.
Both of them moved slowly around the van, towards the road. One of the aliens ran out and tried to fire at them. Fenske and Davis both fired at him, and Fenske got the first kill. Two more aliens peeked their heads out of the building directly across Davis. I told Davis to use a launcher. Davis pulled the Rocket Launcher off his back and pointed it towards the building where the aliens had just been seen, and he fired. The Rocket blew a whole in the wall, and we could see two more alien corpses.
Hill moved closer up, and saw an alien standing in the road, but he didn't quite have a good shot.
Fenske looked at me with a smile,"DJ, can I?"
I nodded to him, then Fenske took the Rocket Launcher from his back and shot it directly at the one alien in the road. We could no longer see it, the alien had been completely blown up. Two more aliens ran into the same building that Davis shot at earlier. I looked as if one of the aliens took control of the other alien, with some kind of weird beam. Hill fired at one alien, but he missed. The alien was soon to react as he fired at Hill, and hit him. He wasn't to badly injured as he was just grazed, Hill then came back towards me. The alien that shot him tried to come out, but I lifted my sniper, shot and killed him. It was my first kill, I didn't really like the feeling, but it did feel good to know that I was helping to get rid of all the aliens.
Fenske moved forward from his spot to another vehicle in front of him, and spotted the alien inside the building. He lifted his LMG and fired rapidly at the alien, he killed him. Davis then moved into the building from a flanking position and shouted that the building was clear.
That was it, the end our our first mission. I radioed in the ship come pick us up, and for the clean-up crew to come and gather the artifacts we had gotten. We all boarded the ship when it came, and set back to the forward operating base.
I was ready for a nap as soon as we got back to base. I helped Hill down to the infirmary, them went to my quarters and slept for a long while.
