“Betcha, you stay up here,” said Gabriella. “And you snipe any VIRUS lackeys on the roof of the main base as everyone makes their way down. The rest of you, follow Christa’s orders once you’re on the ground.”
“By the way,” said QT over comms. “Remember, the LZ is hot. If some of you don’t speak military, it means there’s lots of enemies and you’re guaranteed to be met with a nonstop firefight. Those of you who land at the main base, well, wipe them out. Arkham, stay focused.”
“Hey, there won’t be any potential witnesses left alive at the communications array, okay? I know what I’ll be doing... while I trash talk them at their last moments.” Arkham attaches a body cam to one of the straps on a combat vest and put it on. He stood next to the door and took a deep breath.
Gabriella opened the door as a heavy wind came into the plane from outside.
Arkham turned toward her. “Hey, listen, once this is over, we could go on another trip again like our first date—“
Gabriella kissed him to shut him up. “Quit stalling and finish the mission. We can talk after the war is over.”
“Huh, its been a while since you last—“ Arkham was pushed out by Gabriella. “Oh, come ooooooon!” His voice trailed off as Gabriella closed the door.
The hologram projector began to show the live feed from Arkham’s cam. He was tumbling in the air until he managed to regain control and dive downward toward the mountaintop base. Anti-air weapons were moving to aim right at him.
