Miyano makes a phone call from Philippines.

Operator: Caller, please authenticate.

Miyano: Access code: Black Viking. Get me a secure line to asset Metal 0-1.

[Access: DENIED → GRANTED]

Miyano's call is connected to Aleila, who is

taking off from a carrier on a Little Bird in the North Sea/Northern Europe.

Aleila: Miyano, thanks for the tip on Kingfish. You should know NoD's got a Kill / Capture order on your head.

Miyano: Tell 'em to join the bloody queue.
Libra's profile is shown, where he is located somewhere in Tokyo.

Miyano: Kane's terror-maker, Libra, is in Tokyo. We need to act before she bolts and I can't make the window. You're the only one I trust with this.

Aleila: I'm on it.

The satellite shows the assembling of WMDs stored in Fregata's shipping crates.

Miyano: The bastard used Fregata Industries as a front to distribute the WMDs. I'm en route to their Asian HQ.

The satellite locates the Japanese JGSDF operative, Sabre, trapped in a building somewhere in Tokyo.

Overlord: Japanese special forces have located Libra. JGSDF tracked him deep behind enemy lines, but they're pinned down.

Aleila: And you want us to unpin them?

Overlord: Prosecute the target as needed, but Libra comes back alive.

The Little Bird flies into Tokyo where several parts of the city have been contaminated by the chemical attacks.

["Bag and Drag"]
[October 9th - 14:10:05]
[Capt. Conrado D. Yap]
[MHLE Marine Corps]
[Japan, Tokyo]

Somewhere in Tokyo, Aleila, Conrado, and Damian are being dropped off on a rooftop from their Little Bird. The helicopter emerges from a cloud of green toxins. They are wearing gas masks to protect themselves from the chemicals which are still spilling from the attacks the previous day. In the skies, transport planes are parachuting MHLE reinforcements to help the Japanese.

ODA 595: Any station, any station, this is ODA 595. All civilians at The Louvre are dead. Requesting decon units and medivac.

Overlord: 595, this is Overlord actual. Negative. All US forces in Tokyo are engaged. Triage the civilians and move your team upwind of the plume.

Conrado's team lands on the roof. Aerial transports can be seen deploying troops, as well as AA and rocket fire. Conrado pulls out his STG-44 w/ACOG Sight.

Marines gets off the chopper, and the Little Bird flies away.

Aleila:This area's still dirty from the chemical attack. Keep your masks on. Truck, we're on the deck and moving.

Truck: Roger. I'll meet you at the LZ in one hour. Good luck.

They jump down from the roof to the floor below and begin to move through the building which is filled with toxic fumes.

Overlord:Metal 0-1, JGSDF is pinned down at the French Restaurant. Get there fast or we'll lose the only shot we've got at finding Kane.

Conrado: Roger wilco.
A civilian is seen dead at the end of the hall, lying against the wall. Aleila checks for his vitals, but gets nothing. They move left.

Damian: 595 sounds like they got hit hard. Lot of rooks in that unit.

Conrado: No one's a rook today.
They move towards the edge of the building where a hole is blown out on the wall, the street down below littered with dead civilians.

A wrecked emergency vehicle still spins its red and blue lights. Conrado pushes off a piece of debris and they slowly make their way across the edge of the building. Looking down, Conrado sees multiple dead civilians littering the ground, as well as clouds of the chemical agent.

Damian:Watch your step.

Overlord:0-1, be advised, JGSDF is taking heavy casualties. They won't last long. You'll need to double time it to make the RV.

Aleila:Patch me through to 'em.

Sabre:This is Sabre! How much longer?

Aleila: Three minutes out. Just keep your perimeter secure. We're almost there.

Sabre: Please just hurry!

Aleila: Let's go. This way! Move!

They move down and up a slope of rubble. As they move down the stairs, gunfire from across the building shatter the windows.

Damian:We're compromised! Contact! Building across the street!

Aleila: Go loud!

They briefly engage the hostiles and continue their way down.

Aleila: Down the stairs!

They make it to the first floor and move out of the building.

Aleila: Conrado, with me! Hit the bookstore!

Conrado engages hostiles inside the bookstore. They move inside and Damian spots hostiles on balcony.

Damian: On the balcony!

If top floor clear first.

Aleila:Top floor clear!

Damian:Clear! Check the door!
Damian pushes open a metal door. They stack up by another.

Damian: The restaurant's at the end of this alley.

Aleila: Sabre, this is Aleila. Watch your fire to the north. We are coming to you.

Sabre: Copy that. クソ (Kuso), we're glad to see you.

They open the door to the alley. Some NoD get taken out from the right.

JGSDF: こっちへ、早く! (In here, hurry up!)

Damian:It's the JGSDF!

JGSDF: 行け! (Go!)

Damian: That all of 'em?

They run into the restaurant where Sabre and his men are waiting, some are wounded, others are dead. There is an ammo crate where the player can refill ammo. Sabre carries in one of his wounded men and places him down against a wall next to the counter.

Aleila: What's your status?

Sabre: Seven men standing.

Aleila: Where's Libra?

Sabre: The NoD launched the chemical attack from a staging ground in the catacombs. We believe Libra is still there.

Aleila: We got your six. Lead the way. Overlord, this is Metal 0-1. Link-up complete. We're en route to the HVI's location now.
They move into the dining area and are engaged by NoD outside.

Conrado: We gotta get across the courtyard! Aleila, Damian, lay down cover fire. Move! Move!

Damian: Moving!

They move outside and engage more NoD at the street.

Aleila: Go! Go! RPG! Top of the stairs!

They clear the area and push forward to the stairs. At the next street, there is a wrecked Charity Worldwide truck still spilling chemicals. A NoD armor column moves on the street behind it.

Sabre: Follow me!

Aleila: This way! Move!

They turn into a building to the right. Across the building, they engage more NoD. They move down the building, out to the street, and down another set of stairs. Ahead is a large group of NoD as more arrive in their GAZ-2975 armored vans.

Damian: Boss, we got bad guys inbound.

Conrado: How many we got?

Damian: Looks like Moscow down there! We're gonna need air support!

Conrado: Warhammer, this is Metal 0-1.
Request fire mission, over.

AC-130 Pilot: Roger, Metal 0-1. Established in orbit at 12,000 feet. Full load. Mark your targets.

Damian throws a purple smoke grenade towards the NoD.

AC-130 Pilot: Roger, spot.; Target acquired. Going hot.; Target confirmed. Standby.; Good mark.; Firing; Rounds on deck.; On the way.; Roger mark. Engaging.; Firing; Shout out. Danger close, repeat. Danger close.

Cannon fire rain down on the street, wiping out the NoD, along with a couple of their GAZ-2975s.

Sabre: Down the alley!

Aleila: Let's go.

They come around the alley and up to a plaza. They engage NoD chopper troops and a BTR.

AC-130 Pilot: Established overhead. Ready for targets.; Adjustments complete. Ready for mark.; Sensors back up. Standing by.; Orbit re-established. Ready for targets.; Visual friendlies, call targets.

Damian:NoD roping from the choppers!

The AC-130 Guns down the NoD Helicopter

Damian:Hell yeah!

Conrado: Damian, BTR at the end of the alley! Put smoke on it!

Damian tosses a smoke grenade. The AC-130 destroys the BTR.

Aleila: BTR destroyed!

Another NoD BTR appear and was destroyed by Damian's RPG

Aleila: BTR destroyed! Way to improvise, Damian.

Conrado tosses another smoke grenade. The AC-130 wipes out the infantry.

Aleila: Multiple hits confirmed!; Direct hit! Good work!; Good hit!; That's a hit!

If the AC-130 misses or doesn't hit any NoD targets marked by the smoke grenade.

Aleila: Negative! That's a miss!

The plaza is cleared.

Damian: We're clear!

Sabre: The entrance is up ahead.

AC-130 Pilot: Metal 0-1, I am bingo on fuel. Give me ten mikes to gas up and rearm, over.

Conrado: Copy that. Thanks for the assist, Warhammer.

Sabre: Over here. The entrance to the catacombs!

They come to a manhole. Aleila removes the cover. Sabre goes down the ladder into the catacombs.

Aleila: Conrado, get down the ladder.

Conrado gets in the manhole and climbs down the ladder. When he gets to the bottom, Aleila uses a device to scan the air for chemicals. Sabre's fellow JGSDF agent, Kaji, keeps a lookout nearby.

Aleila: Checking for toxins. Hold up.

The device beeps clear of toxins.

Aleila: I've got negative contamination in this area. Masks off - but keep your eyes open.

Kaji nods and they remove their gas masks.

Aleila: We need to minimize our signature. One light source only.

Sabre: Understood. Follow me. Stay close.

Sabre turns on his helmet flashlight, takes point, and the team moves through the sewers.

Overlord: Metal 0-1, Blue Force Tracker dropped the fix on your position.

Conrado: We're in the catacombs. Proceeding to possible target location.

Overlord: Roger, 0-1. We're sending a Ranger QRF to your location. Mark your route with flares so they can locate your position.

Conrado: Roger your last. 0-1, out.

They move down the stairs further into the sewers. As they move, Aleila marks flares behind them.

Damian: Smells like shit down here.

Aleila: Yeah, but at least it won't kill you.

Sabre comes to a waterway. He signals to wait as he looks both ways and moves right.

Sabre: All clear. Move up.

Aleila: Where's the rest of the JGSDF?

Aleila lights a flare and puts it on the ground.

Sabre: A chemical strike hit our barracks at Satory last night. Most of my men died within minutes.

Aleila: A friend of mine was at Satory.

Sabre: 本当にごめんなさい (I'm really sorry)....this is why Libra must pay for what she's done.

Damian: He will. I'll see to that.

Aleila lights another flare on the bridge above the water. They continue through the sewers until they see a door marked "Danger." Kaji takes a crowbar and yanks the lock off. Sabre kicks opens the door.

Sabre: ようこそ. (Welcome.)

Aleila: Stay sharp.

They now move into a tunnel. The team makes their way through a narrow crevice. They move under a bar and continue to look for Libra. They go left. An explosion above ground shakes the tunnel.

Sabre: This way. Approaching suspected location of HVI. 100 meters.

They come to a dungeon-like room where the walls are made of hundreds of skulls and skeletons. Aleila lights another flare.

Damian: How many bodies do you think are buried down here?

Aleila: Don't know. Let's make sure we don't join them.

They move to a hall. As Sabre moves up, an NoD soldier slams down a gate onto Sabre. Sabre kills him as he was about to fire. Sabre pushes away the gate and they engage NoD soldiers at the other end of the hall.

Aleila: Let's go!

Conrado moves up to the next room.

Damian: Flashbang!

A flashbang goes off. As Conrado recovers his eyes, Libra is seen running away as she fires at them with her weapon while the NoD troops with her cover her retreat.

Damian: We got a runner! It's Libra!

Aleila: Overlord! We have a positive ID on the HVI. In hot pursuit!

Overlord: Roger, 0-1. Remember we need Libra captured alive. She holds the only actionable intel on Kane.

They engage the NoD soldiers in the room.

Aleila: Move! Move!

Conrado: We can't let her escape!

They move up the metal stairs and come to another hall, where Libra is seen climbing up a ladder.

Damian: She's heading up the ladder!

They clear the area and pursue up the ladder. They run up the stairs and out to the street. Libra is seen getting into a grey car, which drives away, escorted by two NoD GAZ-2975s.

Damian: Libra's getting into the grey sedan!

Aleila: Get in the blue van! Move!

Sabre: You go! I'll cover you!

They clear the street of NoD soldiers and run to the van while Sabre and Kaji provide cover from the building. NoD choppers are seen dropping more troops.

Conrado: Damian, hurry. We gotta roll! The HVI is getting away!

Damian takes the wheel, Aleila rides in the back, and Conrado climbs into the passenger seat. He pushes out the cracked windshield, the glass shattering onto the hood of the van.

Aleila: Keep laying down fire!

Conrado fires at NoD soldiers on the street.

Aleila: Gun it!

Damian goes pedal to the metal and drives the van. At the intersection, he maneuvers between two NoD armored cars attempting to roadblock their pursuit, a body tumbles onto the hood of the van.

Aleila: Conrado! I need you back here now!

Conrado gets to the back of the van and kicks the doors open.

Damian: Enemy tank coming out of the alley!

While in the back of the vehicle, the player can switch their weapon for an L86 LSW Red Dot (switch one with low ammo) and lay down cover fire. A NoD T-72 tank comes from behind and begins chasing them down the streets.

Damian: They're targeting us!

Just as the T-72 fires, the van drives down a set of stairs, making it miss. They bump into a store, and the T-72 fires from the left but misses, blowing out the storefront with the tank round instead. Conrado holds off NoD soldiers, and Aleila shoots one attempting to enter the van.

Aleila: Step on it!

Damian gets the van moving again. As armored vehicles chase them, Conrado takes out the gunners or kills the drivers, causing the vehicles to swerve out of control and crash soon after. A NoD Hind appears behind them, flying above the river.

Damian: Hind incoming!

The van takes heavy fire from the chopper's nose cannon.

Aleila: Drive! Drive!

Damian: Taking a shortcut!

Damian drives down a ledge to another street. As they speed through a hall of stores, the Hind fires its guns through the glass ceilings.

Aleila: That helo's making another run at us!

Damian spots Libra's vehicle.

Damian: Got her!

Aleila: Conrado, ride shotgun!

Conrado moves to the front of the van.

Aleila: We're gaining on him! Floor it!

They drive out of the stores and onto the street, catching up to Libra.

Damian: Target is dead ahead!

Aleila: Conrado, take the shot!

Conrado fires and takes out the car's back tires. The car starts to veer out of control.

Damian: She's hit! She's hit!

Damian takes advantage of Libra's crippled car and rams it from behind, crumpling the trunk and back bumper. Libra's car veers to the right and hits a wall. Damian rams the van into the side of the sedan and pushes it through the street. Conrado takes out the gunmen in the rear seat of the car. They crash through a fence, and the sedan is thrown toward a garbage bin. The van hits it, pinning the sedan in, totaling both Libra's car and the front of the van, and stops. Libra's driver is already dead, slumped in the driver's seat.

Aleila: Target vehicle is down! Get out!

They get out of the van. Aleila runs to the car, pulls out Libra through the shattered windshield, punches her, slams her against the car, and drags her out.

Aleila: C'mere, asshole! This is Metal 0-1! Jackpot! Libra secured! Aren't you, you of a bitch!?

Overlord: Bring him in for interrogation. We'll extract any intel he has on Kane.

Damian: Truck, we've got Libra! We're on our way!

Truck: Copy. Raptor 2's spinnin' up now.
