>ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL

For possibly the thousandth time, you are busy fretting and regretting ever volunteering for this mission. Why the hell did you even agree to it? You sigh as you look out the window of the Skyranger, flying low and fast through the night as it takes you and the infiltration team across the Erusean border.

Accompanying you is Lucina, Morgan, and Edwin from Wraith Team, as well as Hudson and his Emmerian special forces team. They were all people you knew relatively well and trusted, but it just wasn't the same. This was going to be the first mission you were going to be acting totally indpendent from Charlotte and Lucas, which just made you feel anxious and isolated. You realize just now how much you relied on them to carry through a mission.

Well, it was just you, now. You can't help but wonder what Mom or Dad would do in this situation before you quickly shake the thought out of your head. You weren't supposed to care what they thought, remember? The entire reason you chose to be an Engineer was so you could distance yourselves from them!

Ugh ,you really, REALLY needed to find a way to occupy yourself. It felt like this flight was taking FOREVER.

Well, you COULD just sit in your seat and replay all those various scenarios that involved Lucas getting hurt in some fashion, but you decide against it in the end since you needed to have a clear head for the mission.

Instead, you slide over to where Edwin was sitting. Edwin was a pretty big meanie, especially to Mary-Kate and a Sparky, and sometimes Charlotte. Not liking Charlotte alone would be enough to earn your eternal ire but he seemed to be pretty good friends with Lucas somehow, so you feelings about him was an odd, ambivalent one.

However, he was polite enough when it came to interacting with you. You figure it was because he at least respected other people with intellect. You guess having encyclopedic knowledge of literally every kind of working machine imaginable was sort of commendable in his eyes, but it honestly wasn't that special. You only knew what you knew, after all.

Edwin himself is busy reading that map he had showed all of you. The one detailing an old copper mine that was supposed to run directly under the Erusean base you were supposed to recon.

"Yes?" Edwin says without even turning his head. How did he even know you were looking?

"Hmmmm, are you sure the mines are going to structurally sound?" You ask him, looking at the map. "That map looks incredibly old."

"Thirty two years, to be exact." Edwin says..

"Uh huh, I figured." You nod. "You do realize those mines could all be collapsed, flooded, or worse, already occupied? That's a LOT of time to account for..."

"There's literally no more historical mention of these mines in any other document or text." Edwin says "That suggests the Eruseans had completely forgotten about them. It also helps that the tunnels are relatively small and narrow since they were dug by hand, so they're not idea for storage or any other application a military base would need."

"Hmmmmm, I hope you're right."

"I usually am." Edwin says with a smug grin.

UGH. Now your ambivalence was starting to creep into mild annoyance. What the hell did Lucas see in him?

"Okay, so if you're so smart, what are the odds of survival on this mission?" You ask.

"Are you sure you want to know?" Edwin narows his eyes.

"Yeah, sure." You shrug.

"Sixty two percent, with a five percent margin of error."

Apart from that, nothing is known about her. I was never able to find out what kind of a person she really was. But whenever they talked about her, they always had a slight smile on their faces. That, perhaps, may be my answer."

>>27576834
Maybe. Depends on the kind of smile. Based on the film coverage thus far, she's going to be talked about. Some will praise her. Others will say it was a stupid risk. I'm pretty sure other airmen will like her a bit more, knowing what she did to save that dude.

>>27576862
He'll probably be exhausted and pass out from having to hold onto the fucking wing until she lands.

>>27576649
"O-oh, I guess that's not as bad as I thought..." You manage to choke those few words out, trying to stop yourself from saying what was REALLY on your mind.

OhgodohgodohgodohgodI'mgonnadie!!!!!

"Oh yes, normally it's around 50% casualty rate." Edwin shrugs.

You slide away and whimper and start to REALLY regret volunteering for this mission.

"Okay, kids, get ready to drop!" You hear Hudson yell and he stands up and hooks his chute.

You all follow his lead, each one of you hooking up your chutes and checking the gear of the soldier in front of you. Then, it's just another waiting game as you wait for that damn light to switch from green to red.

Finally, the light switches and Hudson starts pushing his team out one by one. Once you reach the door, you look down and take a deep breath. Hopefully things won't end up like the last time you paradropped in.

You close your eyes and jump.

Fortunately, unlike last time, you actually manage to land where you're supposed to AND stick the landing, albeit somewhat awkwardly, considering all the extra gear you're carrying. The rest of the team seems to land without any serious issues, either.

"Okay, we've only got a few hours of darkness to cover us, so we need to get into that mine pronto." Hudson hisses as you all rendezvous at the edge of the clearing you landed in. "Edwin, where's the nearest entrance?"

"There's one right in the jungle here." Edwin says. "Follow me."

You all quietly follow Edwin until he stops in his tracks.

"Right here." He whispers.

You pull out a flashlight and shine it to where he's pointing. Sure enough, there seems to be some kind of thick stone slab in the middle of the jungle floor, no doubt to cap the entrance to prevent people from stumbling into it.

"We got to move it." Hudson says. "Falynn, you have any ideas?"

"Ummm.." You look at the slab and consider your options.

You reach into your tool pack and whip out your combat wrench, which also doubled as a pry bar.

"Alright, I'm going to try and pry this thing open. The rest of you guys do the rest, ok?"

You jam the pry bar end of your wrench into the crack between the stone and the ground and push with all your might.

This time... this time it works. Whether it was because you put more strength to it or it was because your previous attempts loosened it up, you finally manage to shift the stone cap. The rest of the team grabs the edge and flips the cap over and off the entrance with a loud but muffled WHUMP and it falls onto the jungle dirt.

And now you're staring down a very deep, very DARK hole. Your regret immediately intensifies.

"Huh, okay, we're going to need to make sure that tunnel is structurally intact." Mason says, peering down.

"And not booby trapped, either." Woods spits.

"Falynn, are you okay with going up front?" Hudson asks, turning to you. "If not, I can ask Lucina or Chequita to take point."

I wonder if Reznov all of a sudden drops into the tunnel via a completely different hole, like in Black Ops.

>>27577721
"Yeah, I'll do it." You nod as you carefully slide your way into the hole. It's tight and cramped. So tight that you can't even aim your assault rifle effectively, so you stow it away, relying only on your wrench and handgun for protection.

You carefully creep down the tunnel, flashlight shining as you try to spot anything out of the ordinary.

Fortunately, nothing seems to be too out of the ordinary. There's no indication of any traps, and the tunnel itself looks structurally sound, at least in this area. It was only when you started getting deeper in that problems, if there were any, would become more evident.

Sliding your way through the tunnels seems to take an entire eternity. However, you come to crossroads and stop in your tracks.

"Edwin, does this crossroad show up on your map?" You ask.

"Yes." You hear a rustling of paper. "The path up ahead will take us straight inside the base. The left one will have us come right outside, and the right one actually goes deeper into the mine."

"Well, we've got a problem, then." You frown. "The path up ahead is flooded, the path to the left is collapsed, and the right one seems clear."

"Can you do anything about it?" Hudson asks.

"Ugh...." You sigh as you move to the flooded tunnel. It didn't look too bad, it was probably only waist high at most, but you can't tell what it would be like further down the tunnel. You take a look at the water, and see that it's relatively clean and clear. This could mean either one of two things. Either this flooding was very recent, or the tunnel was intersecting with some sort of underground river, which was creating a current that cycled out the water to keep it from going stagnant. Not exactly ideal to be jumping in to...

Well, there was only one way to find out if the tunnel was safe to cross or not...

"I'm going to scout out the flooded tunnel. Maybe we'll be lucky and it'll just be waist deep the whole way." You say. "Lucina, take this."

You pull out a rope and toss one end to Lucina. You hook the other to your harness. Safety first, after all.

"If I tug at the line three or more times that's the signal to pull, okay?"

"Got it." Lucina nods.

You take a deep breath and step into the flooded tunnel. A chill goes up your spine when you realize the water down here was FREAKING COLD. Trying to keep your teeth from chattering, you press on into the tunnel...

And of course, it couldn't be that simple, could it? You see the top part of the tunnel partially collapsed. While it looks stable, it meant that you were going to have to crawl under it. In the water.

And if we're in the water long enough, hypothermia is a very real concern.

>>27578513
>>Might as well see if you can make it.

>>27578605
Not to mention the possible fouling of the rope and getting stuck.

>>27578513
You decide it's no good. Not only is there no guarantee you'd be able to make it to the other side, assuming there was one, but the water was freezing and you were already starting to feel numb. You quickly wade your way back to the crossroads.

"N-no go." You stutter as your teeth are still chattering from the freezing water. "We going t-to have to try a-another tunnel."

Looking at the caved in tunnel, you know that there's no way to clear it by hand. You'd have to use explosives on it, which had a whole set of risks associated with it as well.

>>27578642
You take a deep deep breath. The flooded tunnel was no good, and neither was the caved in one. Not if you didn't want to risk caving in the whole damn mine on yourselves. And you were too far in to turn back now.

That only left one alternative.

"I-I guess we take the third tunnel..." You mumble.

Surprisingly enough, the third tunnel was surprisingly more spacious, as if it had been widened out and constructed differently from the mine. Soon enough, you end up in a massive, underground chamber, a really big one.

"That's strange..." Edwin frowns. "There's a chamber here, but the map says it should still only be a tunnel."

Well, that wasn't good.

Suddenly, there hear a screeching, ear piercing scream that echoes throughout the chamber. Everybody immediately draws their weapons to try and trace the source of it, but the sound echoes around the chamber. You see something flitting about in the darkness. Swinging your flashlight around, you can only catch a brief glimpse of something extremely pale, with a faint blue glow shoot past your vision before it's gone again.

"Edwin, where's the exit?" Hudson asks, gripping his SMG tightly.

"That one." Edwin points to a tunnel to the right.

"Okay everybody, let's move slowly and carefully-"

And then suddenly you feel something drop right on top of you, scratching and biting at your armor.
