"Hard Contact"

1:24 AM

Southern Vietnam

The light of the moon shone brightly across the water. It was early in the morning and everyone was tired. Captain Alex Rider looked back to see a yawning Jason Arthur driving team one, his team’s boat. They kept going until they came to a small bridge with two Viet Cong guards walking across it. “JJ, motor off.” Arthur turned it off. They floated under the bridge silent and unnoticed. Damian "Stretch" Shields looked over at him and said, “Teams two and three are ready, sir” Alex nodded. They kept going to find a place to dock quietly. There were three boats. One with Alex, Stretch, JJ, Paul “Bravo” Baker, Frank "Damien" Westfield, and Chad “Snake” Robinson. The second boat had John “Ghost” Stark, Lawrence "Lozza" Jackson, Lucas "Ozzy" Osborne, Richie Perry, Brennan "BS" Smith. The third boat had the rest, Ishikawa "Sai" Saigo, Viktur "Marksman" Retrodin, John "Whiskey35" Bradley, Jason “Shadow” Jackson, Brian "Nighthawk" Breyers, Hienrich "Tier" Claude, Vasilli "Mad Dog" Zabanof, Kashmira "Ziva" David. They came to a tiny beach and were docking when a spot-light shone on them. There was yelling and RPK fire started up. Alex yelled at them all to take cover behind a series of large rocks. Team three hadn’t docked yet. Alex looked around to find them, he saw Team Three's overturned boat and his heart seemed to stop. ==Chapter twoEdit== Captain Alex Rider

"Move out"

1:58 AM

Southern Vietnam

Bullets were flying over Captain Alex Rider’s head. He looked back and saw two mounted RPKs firing at them. On a walkway there were five Viet Cong soldiers. He quickly memorized their positions and drew it out on the sand. He assigned everyone who was left a person to take out in a matter of seconds. Alex would take out one of the RPK gunners, Stretch took out the other. JJ took one of the Viet Cong on the bridge, Bravo took another, Ghost took another, Damien took another, and Lozza took the last one. They got up from behind the rocks and checked for anymore. They all ran up the shack that the MG gunners were in. They closed the doors and windows and barricaded them. “Alright….Stretch, any word from Team Three?” Rider asked. “Radio’s silent, sir.” Rider felt dread and sadness come over his body at once. Though, even though they hadn’t heard from their sniper team, they had to go on with the mission. To capture Commander Tuan Nguyen of the Viet Cong and interrogate him to find the location of the Russian heavy weapons research facility. They carefully planned their attack to find Nguyen. Suddenly, Stretch looked up shocked. He grabbed Alex’s M1911 that was lying on the table. He pushed open the door and there, stood a Viet Cong scout. Stretch emptied five rounds into the scout. They all looked up bewildered. Stretch looked up and smiled, “What? I heard him…” A couple of soldiers in the back laughed. Alex could have sworn it was Snake and Ghost. Stretch reloaded Alex’s M1911 and gave it back to him. They all grabbed their weapons and started to move out. First they moved though a waist high creek. They took out a few Viet Cong guards that were monitoring the creek. Then they walked deep into the forest until they came to a cave. They set up camp for the night inside the cave. They were eating some rations when Stretch’s radio started having some static. Then they thought they heard some voices..... ==Chapter ThreeEdit== Captain Alex Rider

"Dead Shot"

2:36 AM

Southern Vietnam

“Team One? Team Two? This is Team Three. Come in over.” Mad Dog’s voice came across the radio. Alex hurried over and picked up the radio. The rest of teams One and Two gathered around. “Team Three?! Oh, thank God you’re okay! What’s the matter? You sound worried.” A couple seconds passed and Mad Dog spoke up. “We jumped out of our boat once we started getting shot at. No one was hurt. The important thing I need to tell you is that we have approximately 64 Viet Cong coming straight for us. They’re crossing a creek. Our snipers have set up and are ready to take them down. We’ll each have to take out about 16 of them. We’re ready.” Rider knew exactly where they were. Teams One and Two crossed that creek to get where they were now. “Hold you’re fire as long as you can. We’ll try to get to you! Teams One and Two, we’re moving out!” They packed up and started running to where Team Three was.

They were about half way there when the radio came on. “They’re getting too close sir! We have to open fire. I don’t want to be stuck here with them finding us. Could you imagine what they would do to a sniper, it would be torture for…….forever.” Rider realized that they couldn’t get there in time. “Alright Mad Dog, tell the rest of the snipers to equip their Starlight scopes and open fire on them, the semi-automatics in the front, bolt-actions in the back, spotters on the side. Suddenly, Alex heard the snipers open fire. He heard several shots, then silence. A few seconds later the radio came back on with a half laughing voice. “Sir, they’re down. We each got sixteen kills.” Alex smiled with relief. He was just happy that Team Three was okay. Just a few minutes ago he thought they were dead. Then Sai’s voice came on, “Sir, in the attack at the dock, I lost my M16. Luckily, I was able to find an enemy weapon that I can use. An Arisaka Type 38, I can use it for the rest of the mission sir, my father taught me how to use one as a child.” Rider agreed.

About an hour later they met up with Team Three. After the other teams got them back to the cave, Richie Perry asked, “Sir, what will we do next?” Alex had a small plan worked out. “Well, we’ll have our snipers set up on that cliff on the mountain. Then we’ll sneak in closer and take them by surprise.” Alex thought his last minute changed plan could work. Then the radio came back on. “Teams one, two, and three? Do you copy? Come in teams one, two, and three.” John “Ghost” Stark walked over and picked it up. “This is Corporal John Stark of team two.” Command paused for a little while, probably checking if he was valid. God, command was jumpy at weird things. “Tell Captain Rider that we are sending you guys some reinforcements, an extra team. They will be dropped off by way of helicopter after you have found where Commander Tuan Nguyen is hiding. So have the place relatively under control when they get there. Command out.” ==Chapter FourEdit== Captain Alex Rider

"Deadly Recon"

7:34 AM

Southen Vietnam

Captain Alex Rider woke up with the sun shining on his face. He squinted to see what was going on around him. The others were up, setting up for the attack. The snipers were putting on ghillie suits. The others were loading their extra magazines. Alex got up with a slight pain in his back from sleeping on the cold, hard ground for about five hours. He got up and walked it off. Then he picked up the magazines that he loaded the night before and his custom CAR-15 Commando. He slid in a fresh magazine and walked over to the assembling groups.

“Alright everyone, listen up. Snipers, you head up to that ridge on that small mountain. Take a radio with you so I can tell you when to open fire. Everyone else, we’ll be attacking from the western side of the village. We’ll then try to fight our way to the shack Nguyen is hiding in. Once we find Nguyen, we’ll take him back here so we can interrogate him. Understood?” Rider finished explaining his plan and not five seconds later he heard everyone say, “Yes sir!” They were picking up their things when Alex called over John “Whiskey35” Bradley. “Whiskey, I heard you spoke Vietnamese.” Rider said. “Yes sir, fairly well.” Whiskey replied. Rider smiled. Well, I have a job for you. I have no idea where Nguyen is hiding in that damned village. I’ll need you to go undercover as a Viet Cong. You’ll dress up in one of their outfits. Then you’ll go and find where Nguyen is and report back to me. Sound good?” Whiskey smiled back and simply said, “Sounds great.”

A little over a half an hour later they were at the edge of the jungle. The village was swarming with Viet Cong. Suddenly, Alex was happy he decided to use Whiskey to scout. There was a dirt road between them and the village. Then they heard a patrol coming. They all hid. After the patrol passed they saw a hut closer than the rest. There was one Viet Cong standing by it. Rider ordered Whiskey to take out the guard and take his clothes. Whiskey stood up, sneaked across the road and pulled out his knife. He inched closer and closer to the guard until he was right behind him. Then he stabbed him in the neck. They watched him drag the guard into the brush. Then he came out wearing the Viet Cong’s clothes. He picked up the guard’s AKM and walked into the village. Now all they had to do is wait… ==Chapter FiveEdit== Captain Alex Rider

"Problems"

11:23 AM

Southern Vietnam

About half an hour passed and Captain Alex Rider decided to move in to make sure Whiskey35 was okay. They packed up and started moving within the tree line. They came to a large, moss covered rock. Alex climbed up on it to get a better view, which he got. He could see almost the whole village from there. Unfortunately, he saw something he didn’t like so well. He spotted Whiskey. There were four Viet Cong around him getting suspicious. He knew he had to make a move. So he got down from the slippery rock. “You guys stay here. I’ll go get Whiskey. Be ready to open fire on my signal.” He picked up his CAR-15 commando off the ground and brushed off the dirt. He inched over to a platform. He looked up and Whiskey was walking straight for him. He realized that Whiskey was worried and was trying to get away. He would do the same thing. He waited until Whiskey was right over him to grab him and pull him down behind cover. Immediately the Viet Cong noticed and started running over to investigate. “OPEN FIRE!” Alex yelled. A burst of bullets came out of the tree line taking down the Viet Cong that were near. Alex and Whiskey stood up and ran to regroup with the others. Alex picked up his radio and called the sniper team. “Sniper team? You are cleared to open fire.” He started hearing sniper shots, and then he saw a running Viet Cong man get shot in the face. He smiled and they all moved in.

“Where is Nguyen!?” Alex yelled over the fire. “At the building in the middle of the village!” Whiskey said while shooting a “Charlie.” Rider told everyone to head for the middle hut. Rider watched Brennan “BS” Smith run ahead of everyone else. He was almost there when blood splattered out of his chest. Rider froze, BS lay there wide eyed looking at his bleeding chest. Jason “JJ” Arthur ran forward and kneeled down next to Smith. He dragged his bleeding body out of harm’s way. He then broke out a medic kit. Rider hadn’t even known that JJ was a medic. Alex ordered Lawrence "Lozza" Jackson to stay by them and provide covering fire. The rest of them moved into the building. Alex found Nguyen hiding in a corner. Alex pulled him up by his shirt and punched him in the face. Just then a bullet came flying through the window and hit Nguyen in the leg. He collapsed but Alex caught him. Alex called Damien “Stretch” Shields over to help him carry Tuan Nguyen out. They were bringing him out when Alex heard a sniper shot. He looked over in horror to see Nguyen’s head ripped apart. He felt warm blood running down his arm and splattered all over his shirt. He wondered who did this, was it one of his snipers? He ran to safety with Stretch, both deeply shocked. Alex gathered his thoughts and yelled, “FALL BACK!” He and everyone else fell back to the tree line. They threw smoke grenades to cover them and they ran back to the cave.... ==Chapter SixEdit== Captain Alex Rider

"All in a Day's Work"

12:56 PM

Southern Vietnam

They ran all the way back to the cave. They hid inside as Viet Cong were searching for them. Luckily they ran right past. They all decided to stay there until it was safe.

About an hour later they called the sniper team. Rider told Frank “Damien” Westfield to call the snipers. “Snipers, you there? This is Damien. Are you okay?” Jason "Shadow" Jackson answered. “Hello? This is Shadow. Yeah, we’re okay. We set up a ghillie tent so if they come looking for us, they won’t find us.” Damien agreed, ended the call and then told the others. Alex looked outside and realized that it was raining lightly. That would complicate things a little bit. They all packed up and headed out. Alex’s plan was to find the location of the Russian heavy weapon facility in a file cabinet he saw in the Nguyen’s hut. They got to the edge of the jungle finally. They called the snipers again, Mad Dog answered this time but this time the answer to whether they were okay wasn’t such a good answer. “We’re displacing, a few Viet Cong found us. It won’t be long till they find the bodies. We hid them but that’ll only last a little while. You’ll be without sniper support for about ten minutes.” Alex heard Paul “Bravo” Baker sigh. They’d just have to watch their backs when they were out there. They got up and moved in, avoiding and guard’s sight. This was fairly easy because of the vegetation. Alex went around the back to a window. Sai went around the back with him. Then Ghost went to the side south side of the building and went prone to watch out for guards. Snake did the same for the northern side.

Alex climbed through a window. Closely followed by Sai, who was carrying a bunch of C4. Alex started going through the file cabinets while Sai planted C4 all over the building. Alex found that Tuan Nguyen was involved in many dark deals. He had been involved in everything from weapon smuggling to slave trading. Of course it didn’t matter now because he was dead. Alex still needed to find who shot him. He just hoped it wasn’t one of his own snipers.

Finally he found what he was looking for, a whole file about Nguyen’s deals with the Russians that included the location of a heavy weapons facility. Seconds later Sai snapped Alex out of his drifting thoughts. “Sir, Viet Cong approaching. We need to get out of here. The C4 will cause a distraction so we can get the upper hand.” Alex nodded and the both jumped out the window and started running back to the tree line. Ghost and Snake followed. Sai detonated the C4 and the building exploded. Everyone grabbed their weapons and charged.

Alex heard a familiar sound and smiled. He looked up and a helicopter flying overhead. They stormed the Viet Cong, taking them completely by surprise. They cleared a place for the reinforcements to land. Thirteen people got off and started fighting along side the rest of Alex’s SOG group. He’d remember to learn their names later. They fought back the Viet Cong until they could get on the second chopper. Then they headed out for their next mission...... ==Chapter SevenEdit== Captain Alex Rider

"Cold Shoulder"

11:38 AM

Ural Mountains, Russian SFSR

Alex crouched shivering as he waited for Jerome "Scope" Xavier to respond. Finally he did, “Okay Rider, you can move. No enemies in sight.” For this mission there were only two teams. Team One consisted of Captain Alex Rider, David "Scout" Hilkens, Damian "Stretch" Shields, Paul "Bravo" Baker, John "Whiskey35" Bradley, Ishikawa "Sai" Saigo, Hienrich "Tier" Claude, Jason "Shadow" Jackson, Brian "Nighthawk" Breyers, Chad "Snake" Robinson, Lucas "Ozzy" Osborne, Frank "Damien" Westfield, Kyle "Raptor" Jayden, John "Black Jack" Willis, Todd "Private" Clark, and John "BravoAlphaSix" Mishnick. The rest were in team two, which would come in as reinforcements later, just in case things went loud.

They got up and started making their way across the road. “Rider, I see enemy vehicles inbound. Got off the road.” Scope said. They ran to a near by wooden shack and hid in it. They waited until the gray trucks went past to move on.

They made their way out of the back door of the shack. Alex pushed the door open slowly, but the hinges buckled and it fell off making a loud noise as it hit the ground. Even the snow couldn’t stop the noise of it falling on the metal scrap outside. The trucks stopped and they ran for it, making their way into the woods. Scope offered to open fire on them from his plane but Alex refused saying that it would draw too much attention. They ran to a few downed trees and hid under them. Alex could feel the cold snow hit him like sharp knives as he went prone.

Alex held his breath as Russian troops walked right past him. A pair of boots came down no more than a foot from his nose. The feet stopped walking and just stood there. Alex’s heart was beating so fast he felt like his heart might just jump out of his chest. Finally the feet walked on to reveal a muscular Russian soldier holding an AK-74. Alex was grateful he hadn’t been found.

They got up and moved out of the woods. Most of the group was using the same weapons they had for the last mission, but Alex decided to camouflage his CAR-15 Commando. He had a mix of different parts and white tape. A Russian and walked out of a generator room and saw them. Alex lifted his CAR-15 Commando and shot one round. The man crumpled and fell. Alex smiled, he was happy to be back. ==Chapter EightEdit== Corporal Damian "Stretch" Shields

"Perspective"

12:58 PM

Ural Mountains, Russian SFSR

Stretch looked at his Captain who had just taken down an enemy. He knew he was in for an important mission. The CIA had issued it to them personally. Anything was better than being in Nam, even if it did involve freezing conditions. The good thing was that their weapons weren't jamming because of the cold. At least his face was warm because of his balaclava. He started moving up with the rest of the group, being sure to watch their sides.

They moved up to the roof of a radio station. The view was great, Stretch could see for miles. That was when Rider ordered him to come over to the edge. Tier also came over. "Alright guys, it's not too far. We'll jump down and attack through the back door." Rider told the group.

Tier nodded as he stood holding his AUG he was using for this mission. He then ran and jumped over the railing. Stretch was totally caught off guard. Tier landed right ontop of a Russian sentry. Before the Russian could even think Tier jabbed a knife into him. Stretch and Rider landed behind him with the rest of the team. Stretch glanced at the corpse and moved on to the door. He held his breath and opened the door.
