Grunting, the merc started across the open terrain, his eyes fixed upon the CRU and supply depot. This was the primary egress point for the enemy forces to flood into the objective and it was his and his teamGÇÖs job to secure this point at all costs. As he ran, he pushed a hidden button and an equipment module sprang into his waiting hands. Without breaking stride the merc deployed the uplink behind a sizable looking rock. GÇÿCanGÇÖt be too sureGÇÖ, he thought to himself. The team was half way between the city wall and the objective and closing quickly.
Suddenly, the air was filled with the squeal of tires. Instinctively the merc rolled to his left, while simultaneously pulling out an anti-vehicle grenade and dropping it in the spot that he had just vacated. An enemy LAV rolled by that instant, engine gunning and guns blazing, the grenade took a second to arm itself and latch on to the LAV, followed a millisecond later by a concentrated but satisfying explosion. As two confirmed kills rolled by his TACNET the merc smiled to himself. Command had promised to ensure that no LAVS would be harassing him and his team but sometimes even the almighty themselves manage to screw up.
He and his team picked themselves up and kept rolling on to the objective. He had under his command, two veteran scouts, an HMG and a FNG. The new guy would be providing logistical support this round but he had yet to prove himself and until he did the merc didnGÇÖt trust him one bit. GÇÿKeep it tight squad, scan your sectors and watch out for sni..GÇÖ *Thud* ****, he was hit, by a sniper. He could see his squad taking cover and following the tell tale sniper trail, searching for the attacker. As his body lay dying, the merc continued to direct his squad, his mind was still intact, having already been transferred to the TACNET server to be fed into the next available clone. GÇÿGet me a location on that sniper and IGÇÖll upload his co-ordinates to the strike team.GÇÖ Just then, a new, shaky voice burst onto the airwaves, it was the FNG. GÇÿDonGÇÖt worry sir, I can get you up!GÇÖ In alarm, the merc started to shout, GÇÿNo! DonGÇÖt! That sniGǪGÇÖ *Thud*. The FNG had stuck his body with a nanoinjector, allowing his body to reboot and his mind to be snatched back from the server back into the fight. However, predictably, just as his body started to rise, the sniper had taken a second shot and put him right back down again, sending his mind once again back to the TACNET server. GÇÿDonGÇÖt you ever do that againGÇÖ he growled as his mind fumbled hurriedly for his cloneGÇÖs kill switch before the FNG could GÇÿhelpGÇÖ him again. GÇÿBloody bluesGÇÖ, he sighed. |
