Currently, you're caught in the middle of a massive rebel attack on San Salvacion's capital city. You don't have your gear, and what your firepower is limited to only what you and your squadmates have managed to scavenge and steal from the rebels you defeated.

Your only form of support? A middle aged Embassy worker who is strangely skilled in using a gun and fighting in general.

And to think this all started from an innocent date...

Anyways, back to business.

"Where did you come from?" Jack asks Simo. "We need to figure out how far this thing has spread."

"And you are?" Simo narrows his eyes.

"Jack. I work security detail at the Emmerian Embassy." Your man Lucas here can vouch for me.

Simo turns and you just shrug. "He can be trusted."

Simo nods in understanding. You only said he could be trusted, but not that what he was saying was actually the truth. However, like you, Simo knows that the Wraiths need all the help they can get in this situation.

"We were in a bar five clicks west of here. Bunch of rebels barged into the place and we fought them off. We were trying to get back to the airport when we ran into you guys."

"The airport's pretty far." Jack frowns. "At this rate, it's only a matter of time before the embassy defenses crumble, and I'm not just talking about the Emmerian one."

"I know." Simo frowns. "The Federation and Gallia have their own embassies nearby, too."

"W-well." Falynn speaks up. Isn't that a radio tower there?" Falynn points to the east. "If we could patch into that, we could call the Kestrel for air support."

"That's right." Simo nods. "They can get planes up here in ten minutes, less than two if they retask a patrol flight..."

"But you can bet your ass the rebels thought of that too." Jack sighs. "Comms would be one of the priority targets.

I wonder if theres a QRF onboard the kestrel.

If there is, they might be able to deploy to secure the capital too.

>>27729959
I believe so. Maybe they just jump off the Kestrel and parachute into the fray.

>>27729959
Possibly, but I was under the impression everybody got moved to the Bastion

>>27729610
"You know, can't we call for help from the embassy?" You ask Jack.

"The embassy mostly relies on secure hardlines. A lot of sensitive diplomatic information being transmitted, you know. Those would be the first things that get cut in any organized attack. And I already tried calling them up using the rebel radios we collected. No dice. Long range comms are getting jammed. And guess what would have the power to do that?"

"So it's decided then, the radio tower." Simo nods.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Wraiths have just finished freeing the prisoners from earlier. With a quick reminder of which way is north, the direction where there WEREN'T rampant fires and explosions, they all quickly make their escape.

"Okay, so we've got an armored car, a pickup, a van, and a truck." Simo says as he starts to brainstorm. "We've all got pretty much scavenged Imp ARs or SMGs. This is not going to be fun."

"The truck will draw too much attention, plus the rebels are bound to be looking for it once they realize it's missing." Jack says. "The rest of the vehicles should be more than enough to carry us all."

"Alright, everybody, we're moving out!" Simo calls.

You hop into the back of the pickup with Simo and Jack while Runaround takes the armored car and Falynn and Bragg handle the van and pickup respectively. You all pull out onto the main road and head straight for the radio tower.

Fortunately, again, since you were rolling around in rebel vehicles, the rebels you pass by on the streets don't really give you a thorough inspection as you pass by, opting to instead continue whatever it was they were tasked with.

"Hey! Hey!" You see one of the rebels on the side of the road trying to wave you down.

"Damn." Simo seethes and instinctively reaches for his pistol.

"Hold it." Jack whispers. "Bragg, bring it a stop. Let's see what they want."

"Yo, guys! You don't happen to have an engineer or anything, do you?" One of the rebels calls out.

"Yeah, we do, what of it?" Jack calls back, mimicking an almost perfect San Salvacion accent.

"We found a tank! It's got a track blown, but it otherwise works fine!"

Simo glances at the armored car Runaround is driving. "Think we should upgrade?"

"Definitely." You nod.

"Okay, show us the way!" Jack calls out.

The rebel nods and waves you to follow around the corner. When you do, you can see about four rebels milling about a derelict Emmerian M6 tank. You're pretty sure the rebels didn't smuggle it in, so you assume it's a San Salvacion defense force vehicle that was either abandoned or "left" for the rebels to find.

"So, you think you you fix-"

The rebels don't even have chance to react when they're riddled with hundreds of bullets from some pent up frustration of a squad of soldiers who ended up having to fight on their weekend off.

"Runaround, you think you can drive this thing?"

"Of course!" Runaround cracks his knuckles. "What do you think they teach us in Driver's Ed?"

After some quick work on the treads, Falynn gets the tank up and running. Runaround hits the ignition and the M6 roars to life, ready to unleash some well deserved punishment.

"You know, it's the finer things in life you have to appreciate." Bragg grins as the M6 slowly pulls out into the main road. "They're just literally giving tanks to us for free."

Well, the radio tower couldn't be more than one or two blocks from your position now.

You all dismount a block from the radio station. No sense all of you getting taken out by a well placed lance shot. Lucina takes point, and moves forward cautiously, making sure to try and keep herself concealed from any possible defenders.

Fortunately, nobody seems to catch sight of Lucina, and she quickly dashes her way back to your position.

"They have the whole street in front of the radio station covered." She whispers. "Snipers on the rooftop of the station and on the building across. Riflemen manning the windows, and the door is barricaded. But the building across the street doesn't seem to have much security. No sign of lancers or any heavy anti-tank weaponry.

"Okay, good." Simo looks up to the roofs almost jealously. "I could really use a sniper rifle right now..."

"We're going to clear the building across the street first. Quietly, if possible." Simo says. "Me, Morgan, and Lucina will infiltrate and take out those snipers up there. It's just them, right?"

"Yeah." Lucina nods.

"Good. The rest of you set up in the lower floors and start putting fire into the station. Hopefully you'll draw out any additional men inside Lucina didn't see. Either way, keep them busy until we secure the roof. Then' we'll call Runaround in. Got it?"

"Yes sir." Everybody affirms.

You all infiltrate the building from the back door. The snipers did a pretty sloppy job and didn't even bother trying to secure their rear. No booby traps or sentries or anything. You and the Wraiths save Lucina, Simo, and Morgan set up quietly in the windows directly facing the radio station.

True to Lucina's word, you can see four snipers on the top of the station, with eight riflemen milling about on the windows. They're obviously not expecting a serious attack.

Your team's opening volley of fire is punishing, but not quite as punishing as you hoped. You see who of the snipers go down and one of the riflemen take a hit, but the accuracy of your scavenged Imp weapons wasn't the best, and a lot of shots are missed.

"Snipers taken out. Stand by for support fire." Simo announces.

And then the return fire comes as the rebels regain their sense.

(cont)

>>27731426
Unfortunately, the return fire from the rebels proves to be devastatingly accurate. You see Charlotte, Sparky, Edwin, and Bragg take some hits. However, Edwin and Sparky seem fine thanks to their heavy armor. Charlotte seems a bit worse off, as she coughing up some blood that Falynn is desperately trying to dab away. Bragg seems to have taken a shot through his bicep but he doesn't seem to be bothered by it.

You see two more riflemen fall over and one sniper's head explode in red mist. You're not sure if The shot was made my Simo or Morgan, but it was still a damn good shot.

Meanwhile, Runaround finally rolls in with his M6, with Jack manning the pintle mounted MG. Runaround fires, demolishing the barricade blocking the front door while Jack peppers the windows with MG fire.

"Okay, I want Lucas, Lucina, Charlotte, MK, Falynn, and Edwin to breach the building!" Simo yells. "Everybody else stay behind and provide support fire!"

At this point, the remaining men at the windows have either fled at the sight of the M6, or are trying to drop grenades on top of it in some vain attempt to damage it. Runaround fires another cannon shot, blowing out several windows and the men behind them and showering the street below with bricks and shattered glass.

"Runaround! Watch that fire!" Simo yells. "We need the radio station intact!"

At this point, you and the assault team have made it back onto the street level. Charlotte still seems to be having some chest pains, but thanks to the ragnaid she seem to be suppressing it quite well.

Charlotte and MK lead the way, as shocktroopers were usually meant to do. However, you see puffs of red explode out from her chest. She doesn't quite fall down, but she gives a surprised gasp and drops to her knee.

"Char!" Falynn cries.

"Goddamnit." Charlotte manages to utter.

Without losing any momentum, you and Falynn both grab Charlotte by the shoulders and carry her the rest of the way into the station itself. Your heart is stopped the entire way, though, but the adrenaline surging through your veins prevents you from freezing up or thinking about it.

"Falynn how bad is it?" You ask, kneeling down.

"N-no time!" Falynn stays as she fumbles with one of the ragnaids she's carry. "Gotta stabilize gotta stabilize..."

"Falynn." You say, putting hand on her shoulder. "Calm down. Breathe."

"Y-yeah. Listen to Lucas, Fal." Charlotte coughs.

"Okay. Okay." Falynn takes a deep breath and pops the ragnaid. You can see the bullet holes in Charlotte's chest slowly close up. "It's n-not fatal, but still bad. P-punctured lungs."

"I can still fight." Charlotte says trying to get up.

"Well, at least slug one of them good for me, then." Charlotte sighs.

You nod and the you and remaining team pushes deeper into the station. It was eerily empty, but you suppose that the rebels, like at the shopping center, were shorthanded and couldn't dedicate a lot of men here as a permanent garrison. However, the first few floors are nothing but administrative offices. The actual radio control room is on the top floor.

Fortunately, you don't meet any further resistance, but when you reach the top floor, you then find out why.

There, you see four rebels along with six or so civilians, presumably radio station staff, holed up in the radio control room.

"D-don't come any closer!" One of the rebels yell. "O-or we'll kill the hostages!"

"There's something wrong here." Edwin narrows his eyes. "We're dealing with kids here."

"What?" You blink.

"Their body language. They're unsure of what to do. Classic signs of being cut off from the chain of command. I think we killed their senior leadership in the initial assault. These rebels here just desperate and scared."

"I see." You nod.

"I can sneak around and try and surprise them." Lucina adds in. "But I'll need help to take them all down. I can't take on four at once, at least not fast enough to ensure all the hostages' safety."

You stop and think. So far, the rebels had only seen you and MK. Lucina and Edwin were still out of their sight.

That is over theirs and our dead bodies, which I'll tell you right now is very poor and I like to tell myself I'm good at maths.
Or you surrender your hostages, then yourselves and we can help you get out of this all alive.

That's life versus certain death if you squeeze that trigger my friend, you're obviously not a hardliner.

"Look, we don't want to hurt you." You say.

"Actually, we kinda do." MK whispers.

"Shut it, you're not helping." You hiss at her before turning back to the rebels. "All you have to do is lay down your weapons and let the hostages go, and you can get out of this alive. How does that sound?"

"Y-you're lying!" One of the rebels yells.

"What if he isn't?" Another one says, slightly lowering his weapon. "I mean, just want to get the hell outta here. Everybody's dead! I didn't sign up for this shit!"

"S-shut up!"

Well, it looks like the group was split on what to do, which could be very good or very bad. But what was a definite fact was that now they were too busy arguing with each other to pay attention to their surroundings...

"F-fine!" The rebel yells, tossing his weapon out into the hallway. "J-just let us go and we'll leave!"

The four rebel slowly shuffle out of the control room. Lucina and MK escort them out, leaving you and Edwin with the station staff.

"Any of you know how to handle the equipment?" Edwin asks.

"Y-yes, we're the technical crew." One of the civilians stammers.

"Good, we're going to need you to cut the jamming the rebels set up." You say.

"And to set up a secure transmission on this frequency." Edwin hands a slip of paper to the techs.

"Y-yes sir, right away!" The tech crew gets up and begins their work."

"Simo, Jack, we're in business." You say and pick up the mic. "Kestrel Control, Kestrel Control, do you read?"

"This is Kestrel Control, who is this?" You hear a voice buzz on the radio.

"This is Wraith Team. San Salvacion City is under attack and we need immediate air support. I repeat, the city is under attack."

"Okay, we're scrambling support elements." Kestrel Control responds. "ETA ten minutes. We're also rerouting a patrol flight, ETA two minutes."

"Thanks a lot, Kestrel Control." You nod and turn to the techs. "Okay, I need you guys to start broadcasting the message as far and wide as possible. The city's under rebel attack and needs immediate assistance. Civilians take shelter and any available soldier needs to mobilize. Got it?"

"Y-yeah." The techs nod.

You and Edwin make your way back down to the first floor. Charlotte is carefully being loaded into the van. Simo and Morgan have already come down and are surveying the damage.

"We got the word out, Simo. Kestrel's sending in fighters to support." You announce.

"Good." Simo nods. "That means we can head for the embassy. Load up!"

Once again, your journey through the city streets goes relatively unmolested. Honestly, you start to wonder whether there were any rebels left in the city at all.

"That only means one thing." Jack says darkly. "They're all congregating to a central location."

And you all know what it probably was.

"We're coming up to it right now!" Runaround warns.

The Embassy was... in pretty bad shape. You can see what were once high and thick perimeter walls were breached in multiple sections. Bullet holes and impact craters showed evidence of fierce fighting, and the building itself looked battered beyond recognition.

"Shit, that's bad." Simo breathes. "You think they're still alive in there?"

"The rebels wouldn't be surrounding the place if they weren't." Jack says.

"Wraith Team, Wraith Team, this is Blue Flight." Your radios squawk. "Requesting targets. What do you need destroyed?"

"Blue Flight, we have multiple hostiles surrounding the Emmerian Embassy. Mostly infantry and light vehicles. A few passes should shake them up." Simo says.

"Roger that. We're thirty seconds out."

"Should we open fire, sir? Draw their attention away from the planes?" Runaround asks.

However, there's some fierce MG fire being thrown up in the air, and you see one of the Falcons suddenly start belching smoke.

"This is Blue Flight breaking off. Circling around, give us another minute."

You see two Falcons, including the damaged one, peel away while the other two begin to circle.

"Okay, all units move forward!" Simo says. "Stick close to the tank and shoot down anything that moves!"

"Of for the love of-"

Falynn strides forwards and gives Sam a powerful right hook. Sam falls back into the van, completely out cold.

"W-what." You blink.

"She's not the only one who can throw a good punch." Falynn sighs as her arm finally relaxes. "We both have the same parents, after all."

"Isn't she going to be like... mad?"

"T-trust me, if it was you, s-she would have kicked your as the moment she woke up." Falynn sighs. "She'd never hit me or anything like that.

"Up until now, I thought that YOU would never hit her for any reason." You point out.

"Oh...." Falynn gasps as she realizes the implication.

"Don't worry, we'll figure it out later."

The both of you sprint back down to the where the main fighting is going on. The team is taking cover behind Runaround's M6 as it slowly advances, firing as it goes. Every so often, the pair of Falcons would swoop down for a strafing pass. You notice that one of them looks like Lara's plane.

"Nice of you to finally join us." Simo scowls. "We need to get inside the embassy and make contact with the guys inside. If we can coordinate with them, we might be able to push these damn rebels out. for good."

"Um, that's a lot of open ground to cover." You frown.

Yeah, well, you, Lucina, MK, and Falynn are up. Jack's also going to tag along because he can vet for you guys."

"Sure you can keep up, old man?" MK grins.

"I'm not THAT old."

"Can't we use Runaround as mobile cover?" You ask.
