I was the element lead, my job was to ensure all the operatives made it out alive and adapt the mission to the conditions set before me. Peachy was our marksman, he was stationed up in a watchtower overlooking the front. Ani was a surveillance expert, off-site and hacked the cameras watching the interior while peachy watches the outside. Illusion was the point-man, he was going to do the actual work while phg was a decoy, a distraction so illusion can get around.
Things were going surprisingly well, phg had distracted a guard near an elevator door into a bathroom, where she then beat the tar out of him and left him unconscious and handcuffed to a toilet. Illusion went into the elevator hit the basement floor, took out a couple guards (that i scolded him on because he was running out of places to hide the bodies). Then he disappeared into a server room and proceeded to do his thing.
Moments later phg chimes into me, “illusion is going to turn on you, take the information, and sell it to the afghanis.”
“do you have any proof of that?” i asked.
“he doesn't like you.”
“that's not true, illusion is my friend, he was my battle buddy in the war.”
“he thinks you've been flirting with me.”
“how could he assume that, i'm practically afraid of you.”
“so is illusion, but we're still a couple.”
“and i respect that! Why would illusion-”
it was then that proz came in, clearly he was like... The director? And he was like, “i've heard enough of this high school nonsense. Hicks, you officially have suspicion of an operative turning. What does the book say about this?”
“...secure the intel, by any means necessary.”
so i started heading to the elevator and phg shows up, and i immediately believe she's turning as well. I don't pull my gun but instead brandish a push dagger from my right hand. While i push the button i threaten to stab her and she says, “illusion already told me you don't kill women.”
“you were my friend's girlfriend, you might as well have a twig and two bits to me.”
and as the elevator opens i get in and say while the door closes, “i was bluffing.”
between then and the point the elevator doors opens i had drew my gun and illusion was like right at the elevator. So we're standing off, each swearing we had a bead on the other, pointing out our weaknesses as to who would miss if the other was shot first. Who's going to get away with the intel, and etc. In the end i win the argument because i explain that peachy is outside and has heard everything going on. “you want to take your chances with a marksman that can john wilkes a penny at a thousand yards? Last i checked the wind isn't blowing today, it'll be an easy shot.”
and with that illusion gets the drop and proceeds to pistol whip me, a fight ensues, i woke up before anyone won.
