"Morgan, I want you to kill the two lookouts, okay? Bernice, sneak up to those two soldiers and take care of them. David and I will cover you. Got it?" Alex said as he took out and cocked his M2F. David clicked the two heavy machine guns onto his back as Alex handed him the other M2F he carried.
"Go!" Alex said, and Bernice immediatly ran from cover and up to the wall around the base. A search light passed over her, making her CASE stand out slightly from the wall and showing the form of the suit. However, the person manning the light did not have time to do or say anything as a bullet pierced his head. Alex quickly shot out the search light, making everything dark again. The other light swung over towards them, and the guard at the spot light almost yelled something, but another bullet sent his body toppling off into the interior of the base. David shot the other light as Bernice put two bullets into each of her target's heads.
"Clear," came her voice over the comm. David followed Alex out of the small patch of cover they had as Morgan ran up behind them.
"Finally, I don't have to look at everyone else's asses," David commented under his breath.
"I enjoy yours the most," Morgan retorted. Alex shook his head.
"Shut up, or your sex talk is gonna get us killed!" Bernice started to agree.
"You guys are idio--" The door to the side of the base flew open, and twelve men burst out into the night air.
"Will, stick close," one said. Then, "Mike, get your ass up front. Keep your lights on, everybody. That's what the other two idiots here didn't do, and look at them!" The man that was talking crouched right next to Bernice, and she stood unmoving with her M2F Pistol pointed right at his head. The men looked down the barrels of their guns at the surrounding area, then started to move toward the forest. Bernice relaxed slightly and started to move through the door, but another man barred her path. She instinctivly fired a round into his head and jumped over his body as it fell to the ground.
"Clear," her voice said, and everyone else followed.
"We need to check on that ship being fueled, ladies. Get up to the landing area and blow the shit out of it so nothing can get out of there again. They may have found our ship, but we'll take it back when we're done here." Alex said as he ran through the door. Two buildings formed an alley just big enough for two men to walk through side by side, and the alley seemed to run around the whole base. There was a break in the walls so that people could get to the door, and Bernice jumped to the other side of it as David took up position across from her.
"Hey, buddy!" David looked at Alex. "We need to find some sort of stairway down into the base to find the Director. I don't think he's on that ship yet. You two," he said, pointing at Bernice and Morgan, "get to find the fueling areas. Now move!" Alex jumped to the spot where Bernice had been. Looking around the corner, he motioned to David that the little alley was clear.
"There's a courtyard that the alley leads to," Alex said.
"We have to find some way to get into the base." David looked around the corner. "What's the plan?"
