At Olympus Base

FTac Recon and M4 got picked up by VTOL after their first mission, FTac Recon opened the side door and opened the view of the Atlantic Ocean full of endless sea and the mainland was far away between America and Europe. He saw a surprise in this base undergoing a process of expansion. 

Pilot 1: Alright, kiddo welcome to the Olympus.

M4: Olympus? Your referring to Mount Olympus?

Pilot 1: Yeah, we've been given a new base name by Simon.

M4 looked outside with FTac Recon, she was surprised to see astonished base was going better as well and the workers began the process of expanding. The VTOL hovered down on the helipad, descending it as both saw TYR standing with his smile smile in gestured. The two got off the VTOL.

Pilot 1: Alright, I'll stay on the point, if you have a mission with your commander, I'll be ready.

FTac Recon: Thank you!

TYR walks towards both and greets them.

TYR: Welcome to the Olympus M4 and Recon. *grin* You came.

FTac Recon: TYR, how did you get there?

TYR: Well, me and Grizzly done our mission, so it's our job to handle our duties in the base.

M4: So that means, you and Grizzly will keep an eye on our base?

TYR: Yep, this base belongs to us, our secondary base. Like any organization, we need good people and Dolls. Henry was still busy production of the new S T-Doll per second.

TYR: By the way, Simon has given you two a present.

TYR handed a case on his back and handed it to them.

M4: *concern* TYR, what are those?

TYR: Those, *smirked* Those are Fulton recovery devices, you can start bringing people in, use it.

FTac Recon: *smiles* Thanks Tex...

TYR: Oh, you two, got something for ya... Simon is calling you both frequency and codec.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Codec and frequency channel call

Simon: Oh, hey you two, I see you two finally make it back to our newly base, what do you think?

M4: It's nice... I could watched the view of the ocean.

Simon: Yeah, endless sea, and birds humming. Oh, you two, I rigged that codec and frequency channel so you two can contact our lady friend, Rachel "Friede" Ludwig.

FTac Recon: *concern* Is she okay?

Simon: No need to worry. She's tougher than you think...

FTac Recon: Still, she's just a student.

Simon: Which is exactly why she could be an effective source of information. Beside that little angel Rachel is the one who gave us this mission, right?

FTac Recon: ... I guess.

M4: So, Rachael help us for our mission?

Simon: I'll put her on.

Rachael: Hello you two.

M4: Hey Rachael. Where are you?

Rachael: Goethe University Frankfurt. The teacher told me to stay here until things quiet down.

FTac Recon: Teacher? Oh, him. He's... that's probably good advice.

Rachel: Ja. He has a radio in his room, so we can talk anytime.

FTac Recon: Huh... Pretty fancy for a teacher.

Rachael: Promise me, Taylor, that you'll bring back peace. And...

FTac Recon: I know. I'll contact you if I find your friend.

Rachael: Thank you. Taylor, if you need to know about Iceland. The geography, the climate, the wildfire, anything - just ask me. I know about its history and laws, too. We learned it all in school.

FTac Recon: Okay. I have a question, I'll ask.

Rachael: ... I, uh...

FTac Recon: What?

Rachael: In school, I also learned that peace is an unnatural state for human society. And that war is a constant threat to our relationships with others, just like happened in World War III, many people died in disease or killed in the combat.

FTac Recon: That's right.

Rachael: So, to achieve peace, we have to create it ourselves. Crying about it won't bring it about, or make it last. 

FTac Recon: Each one of us must go and seek it out. You won't find it without making sacrifices. No offense, but I don't know what peace is. Never felt what it's like. Never even been interested in it...

...

...

M4: Recon?

FTac Recon: Uhhh... n-never mind

Rachael: Since the war of Verdansk ended, the relationship with US and New Federation with URNC has not yet confirmed. 

FTac Recon: Yeah in 2053, the Promotheans use the propaganda in North America many people believed the ideology would meet great resistance. East Coast American Rossartism Alliance held in demonstration in front of Center City Hall of Philadelphia.

Rachael: They claim the Rossartre had been killed there by those seeking to protect their private corporate and that ensure mankind survival.

FTac Recon: And still United States still remains after the second civil war, the Coast American Rossartism Alliance is just private alliance.

Rachael: Each one of us must go and seek it out.

FTac Recon: You won't find it without making sacrifices. But no offense, but I don't know what peace is. Never felt what it's like. Listen Rachel, I think your ideas are... admirable, and I hope they turn out to be right. 

Rachael: Yeah, me too.

FTac Recon: Peace is in your name. Who better to help bring it back?

Rachael: Thanks, Taylor. *smiles* I will be here whenever you need me or M4. See you two later.

Simon: Oh, use your Codec and Frequency Call, well, Helian usually use Frequency channel to call people. But remember you two, stay alert. I'll deploy you two back in the mission, Ramirez and Aliana were underneath the truck to reach to the mountain. Don't let your guard down.

FTac Recon: Got it.

Simon: Need to know more about Iceland? Rachael can help you two out.

FTac Recon: Good to know.

Simon: We'll follow their transport route, its looked like Ramirez and Aliana were in disguise. That should take us straight to their main base.

FTac Recon: From what I've seen, it looks like nukes.

Simon: Agreed. The key thing now is to confirm whether those "SPEARS" really are what we think they are, and if so, why they're here.

M4: Follow the transport routes and find the nukes?

Simon: Yeah, that was thinking. First, we should make contact with the Resistance commander. They can tell us more about what's up ahead. But it looks like their hideout's already come under attack.

M4: We'd better hope they're still alive.

Simon: Taylor, M4, infiltrate that cabin and secure the Resistance commander. LM-S, alongside FN-49 with MP5 Cx4 Storm and HRM-9 will provide you cover. Neutralize any guards, by knocking them out, putting them to sleep or even using the Fulton recovery system. You choose how to handle it, you two.

Codec end 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

M4 and FTac Recon both walked back to the VTOL and headed back to Iceland.

Back in Iceland, somewhere in Drangafjall in Northwest

M4 and FTac Recon peak out from the tree seeing a truck and the merc is patrolling the truck and the convoy. The two proceed on foot.

Simon: *COMMS* Head for the Resistance boathouse it's northwest of there, it could be Dragafjall base it could be close.

The two walked quietly, avoid the Mercs by using other routes. On other routes, the two sees a river with foggy area, the two sees two mercs were patrolling. FTac Recon signal her to take one on pathway while he handles the two mercs. She nodded and he walked towards the two mercs beside the river, M4 aimed the mercs on the head and shot him with Recon crouch slowly towards the two, he quickly, grabbed both mercs head and bang each other.  FTac Recon then place both mercs onto the recovery balloon to be picked up b VTOL as it lift.

Simon: *COMMS* Two balloon were recovered.

FTac Recon regroup with M4 who killed the soldier. Now the duos rushed to the next area.

At Camp site and the boathouse, the two made to the objective.

FTac Recon scanned the area, which they there six mercs.

FTac Recon: Looks like six mercs here.

Simon: *COMMS* The boathouse should be close by. Neutralize the security detail and make contact with the resistance commander.

FTac Recon: understood.

M4: *concern* How are we gonna meet him, there's one guard on the tower.

FTac Recon: M4, maybe we should use this.

FTac Recon handed the Wu Silent pistol to her.

M4: Isn't that?

FTac Recon: Yes, its tranquilizer pistol. It will make the mercs sleep. 

FTac Recon also support M4 for help, as she wield the Wu silent pistol. He also, place hold M4's hand when she had struggle to shoot while Recon's head appeared on her shoulder.

FTac Recon: Ok, *helping M4* aimed closer at the tower.

He checks the mercs, anywhere closer while he helped her.

FTac Recon: Okay aimed closer at the head.

M4 nodded, she pointed Wu silent pistol, while FTac Recon helped her, she only could felt his hand held her while doing her practice since M4 doesn't use sidearm before, AR-15 only wields her sidearm. Her cheeks turned pink blush, only to find her feelings with him, since she confessed with him after the Cryptid's apocalypse. She pull the trigger with his help, shot the merc, causing him to sleep.

FTac Recon: There... that's how you aimed with your sidearm, remembered what Gaz said, "switching your sidearm is faster than reload".

M4: *little blushed* I guess...

FTac Recon: Now, let's take out the...

M4 and FTac Recon stands up from their covered, only to find the five out of six mercs were down or knock out.

FTac Recon: Well, that was quick...

???: *Chuckles* I beat you now, Taylor...

FTac Recon snarled, that voice he recognized.

FTac Recon: I know your still joining us Lucia...

Lucia sitting on the box crates, she was the one who took out the entire mercs while he helped her to use sidearms.

Lucia: *smiles* I see you helping your lover, out there.

FTac Recon: *blushes in furious* Grrr Lucia, we're just friends...

M4: *blushes* Y-yeah, that what he said!

Simon: *COMMS* Hey, what's all the rackets? *Oh, its Lucia right. I see you took out the merc quickly. Who send you?

Lucia: It was Hinata, send me to the mission.

Simon: *COMMS* I was the one who command any dolls while you always help to find the resistance.

Lucia: Because I win...

Simon: *COMMS* Anyway, now meet with the Resistance commander. He's inside the boathouse.

The three check everywhere in the cabin, and office room, but only finds nothing. Suddenly, a loud bang coming from the boathouse, attract Lucia, FTac Recon and M4 to turned around seeing boathouse door banging.

The three ready their guns, Lucia opens the door, when they enters they find the group of resistance who were held with their armswrist held with ropes.

All Resistance personnel: Karttaa!/äpärä!/Mene pois!/Ole kiltti, älä vie meitä pois!

Lucia: *mumbles* Wait, those are Finnish people... I thought, their gone...

M4 and FTac Recon pointed their guns at the resistance only to be find were Finnish people.

Resistance soldier 1: Paska

Resistance soldier 2: Olemme tuhoon tuomittuja

Resistance soldier 3: What should we do?

The woman appeared wearing winter military outfit and her brother also beside her with a military hat.

FTac Recon: Where's your commander Jaakko?

He took out a picture of the commander himself to the resistance.

FTac Recon: I'm looking for someone.

Onni: *shocked* vanha mieheni ...

Mika: Shhhh! He's dead. They killed our commander.

FTac Recon switch to commander's picture to another picture of a woman in age 24.

FTac Recon: So, you must be his daughter? Then that makes you his delegate, right?

The three disarmed their guns, as he attempted to make a peace contact.

FTac Recon: Relax, we're not your enemy. 

Mika: Mmmmphhh... I'll take whatever you've got.

Outside the boathouse, M4 quickly release the men with her knife to the cut the rope from their wrist.

Mika: Thank you, I owe you one. Now let's start in the beginning. I'm Mika Jaakko, I'm newly commander of the resistance and we're the remnants of Finnish people.

Lucia: I thought Finland collapse after Northern light incident.

Mika: My people led my father, fled to Iceland, is a safer zone to know, however, only to find the government in Iceland is no more, we tried to settlement our new home. What's bring you three here?

FTac Recon: We're just uhhhh.... a photographer.

Lucia: Yes, we came to Iceland, since Iceland government collapse, so we take the pictures of birds.

Mika: Birds?

Lucia: A Camera, *shows a camera*

Mika: You've got no telephoto lens. How do you get your shots?

Lucia: Telephoto's for amateurs. It's all in the timing.

Mike: Oh, Ok. we can talk until I finish this.

Onni: Let me smoke too!

But her brother attempted to tried to smoke but Mika stopped him.

Mika: Onni *snarled*

M4: *thought* Its just Lunasia and her brother William.

FTac Recon: Tell us what's going on here.

The three listened to Mika about what's going on in Iceland while Onni walked away in furious.

Mika: This place is crawling with soldiers. They don't look like Private Security. More like hired guns. They're loaded with the latest gear from all over the world.

FTac Recon: I heard this 17 years ago, after the war many PMCs founded by retired veterans from Eastern Europe while few like London, France, and US has few of the best PMCs. The PMCs from Eastern Europe were conducting operations under the Charter of the Soviet International Military Cooperation Bureau.

Mika: Tch, Soviet, those commies bastards, they somehow, they've return from the dead. Despite Soviet Union were just small but medium country since ELID spread across Russia. They've built automatons, Multi-legged-robots and Dolls replacing soldiers battalion units.

Mika: I mean... seriously.... Those Rossartrists thinks New Soviet Union is a powerhouse and the good sign making Russian people displayed efficiency and spirit self-sacrifice without abandoning their dignity. However we find out, they are nothing but a Dictator.

Lucia: I see, you seems your country shared enemies to Soviet Union, its just Federation War, Bolivian forces and the help of US defeated the Federation and the Tyrant leader.

Mika: Yeah, and those guys are Rosstaristinen

Lucia: Rosstaristinen... Rosstarist?

Mika: I saw setting up another abandoned town. They're planning to do here what they do.

FTac Recon: If that's the case, what are they after?

Mika: Whatever it is, it's not us...

Lucia: You don't think they're here to push you back into Iceland?

Mika: Impossible. Too much hardware - too many bases. Didn't you see? They've got helicopters, tanks... it's like we're in Da Nag. There must be something else.

Lucia: Or Nicaragua. Just like the FSLN, led by my grandmother, alongside the legendary Big Boss and the MSF PMC.

Mika: Wait... FSLN, MSF. You know those groups?

Lucia: Yeah, my uncle told me a story, about the FSLN who aid with MSF the PMC during the Peace Walker.

M4: Umm Miss Jaakko, about this, is there a base nearby? We're heading to Drangafjall the base was THERE but nowhere where they are, can you tell us?

Mika: Of course, there's a factory to the Northeast cover under the mountain across a suspension newly bridge.

FTac Recon: Factory to Northeast across newly bridge. Have you seen a big transport boat White Blizzard crew near somewhere in camp site?

Mika: You mean the river stream from here? But the boat can't sail to the river. The only enroute is road.

Lucia: Any idea what's on it?

Mika: I could introduce to some of our people up there. But I don't recommend going to the mountains. We've lost a lot of people there. Many were in our settlements in Westsouth. The rest take us captive, torture us for information about our people and then they kill us like pigs.

The resistance soldiers armed their guns and rocket launchers on each weapon crate.

Mika: However, my people were the last settlement. The final refuge for our Finnish people after being fled from our former homeland and into this Iceland peaceful Artic Island of Iceland. Then Hirviö attacked...

FTac Recon: A monsters?

Mika: Ja vanha mieheni... *tears*

Her tears well up, Mika and her brother lost their father.

Mika: mieheni Isämme... he was Toivo - our hope.

Onni: Now that Isä's gone my sister is Resistance commander.

Mika: *sigh* Don't listen to him. *sad* Father was a hero who fought by our side. I am only his daughter. *normal* As for you three, you need a special talent to become Syntyperäinen päällikkö. It takes someone great until all of our Finnish people.

FTac Recon: Sorry to interrupt, but leaders don't choose themselves, neither do heroes. But you carry on his legacy for Finnish people and they'll follow you no question.

Mika: *concern* You think so? My people trust me, but not one of them calls me Commander.

The Resistance noticed that freak out shouting at Mika.

Resistance soldier 1: *shouted* Mika!

Mika: Huh?

M4: *curious* What's going on?

The resistance panic as well her brother Onni noticed on the sky.

Onni: Kolibri!

Laaa Laaa

Mika: *gasped in shocked*

FTac Recon; *shocked* That sound...

Lucia: *curious* What?

M4: Lucia, that sounds we've encounter.

The four rushed towards her soldiers and her brother looked up seeing the flying machine.

https://youtu.be/dI5PLZ7wmS0

FTac Recon and M4: *Gasped*

Resistance soldiers: *screamed in panic*

 Kolibri of what resistance call, takes cover and avoid gunfire from the flying machine.

Lucia: *gasped*

Mika: *shocked* Oh no...

Mika rushed towards her comrades, grabbed a rocket launcher on the ground to face the monsters. The flying machine fire gatling gun at her as Lucia rushed.

Lucia: *shouted* Get down!

Lucia tackles Mika from getting shot from flying machine, while FTac Recon and M4 rushed to the cabin for covered as guns fires. As the flying machine hovering above, the machine deploys mini drone with circle on top.

FTac Recon: *snarled* 

FTac Recon grabbed the launcher, aiming at the mini drone but that drone hovering struggle to aim that thing, as he waits for the drone moves, he fire the rocket and destroyed the drone. Another drone hovered, FTac Recon aimed at another drone, fire another rocket and quickly the same to destroy.

VRRRRRRRRRRR

FTac Recon: Huh?

Lucia: Oh no...

The flying machine came back looking down at the three. FTac Recon use the rocket to aimed at the A.I. Pod, fire the rockets towards the pod. The flying machine dodge the rocket.

FTac Recon: *shocked* What the hell?!

M4: *shocked* It dodge!

Lucia: That flying machine can dodge, it is superior to any robots.

Mika: *Shocked* Hän on uusi mies. An unmanned weapon. A robot!

But not only that, Onni Jaakko was also kidnapped by the drone who captured him.

Onni: *screaming* GAAAAAAHHHAAAAA!!!

The Resistance failed to save him, as Mika shout.

Mika: Onni!

They heard a gunshot, FTac Recon zoom closer, he sees LM-S, FN-49, MP5, Cx4 Storm and HRM-9 opened fire at the Flying machine.

FTac Recon: Wait, hold your fire!

HRM-9: *COMMS* Huh, Dude, what are talking about?

FTac Recon: There's a kid on the drone! Don't shoot!

Mika pulls out a gun from her hoister, but Lucia stopped.

Lucia: No! He won't survive the fall!

Mika: Pois tieltäni!

But failed to shoot him as Lucia told her not to shoot if she shoot Onni will not survive the fall.

Mika: Better for him to die at the hand of a ystävä than suffer their torture.

ZZWEEEEEE!!!!

Mika: *snarled*

The flying machine then flies away with drone held Onni hovering above, Lucia, Mika, FTac Recon and M4.

Mika: You three stay here. As long as I'm still alive, I might as well repay you *reload her gun*

FTac Recon: No wait!

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

Mika fire her pistol at the flying machine, Mika summoned her comrades.

Mika: Täällä!

The resistance soldiers screamed of battle cry while the three watch.

Mika: Find Onni. Me voitamme ja selviämme!

Lala la lalalalaa lalalaaa la lala

As the flying machines flies away, Mika and her comrades followed the machine leaving FTac Recon, M4, and Lucia in silence. The three they saw that unforgiveable machine they witness, its like a giant size than any humans including Assault Artillery.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Codec call and Frequency call

Simon: Taylor, what was that thing?!

Helian: I've never seen that machine before, its doesn't look like AAX.

Lucia: That thing was an unmanned.

M4: I could imagine that machine can fly.

FTac Recon: Whatever it was, it looked unmanned.

Simon: Unmanned? Wait, you mean like drones can unnamed fighter and everything? Damn, this is going deja vu.

FTac Recon: What the hell is going on here?

Simon: Not to quote Mika, but the hardware they've got here isn't just unusual, it's overkill. Which means one thing: it's nukes. So the question now becomes, why?

Helian: It could be a violation peace treaty with URNC.

FTac Recon: We can't make that call yet. We need more intel, everything.

Simon: How? Our source is dead. 

Lucia: But his daughter isn't.

Simon: Good thinking. We can follow her by tomorrow. We'll get you guys on Exfil. Tomorrow, you three head for the next outpost, and make contact Mika... if she's still alive.

M4: But what about XM4 and Aliana?

Simon: Don't worry, there still okay.

Codec call and Frequency call end

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile 

LM-S, FN-49, MP5, Cx4 Storm and HRM-9

After failing to save Onni from the flying machine, the group decided to head back to HQ

HRM-9; Well that's unsuccess rescue that boy...

LM-S: Yeah, no one able to rescue this boy? The resistance and the leader are chasing that machine.

MP5: You sure, they are okay?

LM-S: I think so...

*bark*

LM-S: Huh?

FN-49: What is it?

LM-S listened to that bark on his ear.

LM-S: I hear a barking sound. 

The group looked closer at the distance on the snow, a wild dog shows up but its a husky dog.

*bark* 

*bark*

Cx4 Storm: *adorable* AWWW A PUPPY!

Cx4 Storm rushed to that baby husky while FN-49 joined.

Simon: *COMMS* A wild dog? This tough guy. Mercury can you confirm?

HRM-9: Yeah, that's a husky dog.

FN-49 and Cx4 Storm seeing hugging the baby husky while MP5 patting the dog as the husky whimper.

LM-S: She's cute.

HRM-9: Look, S whatever what kind of breed is could be male or female. *smirk* I suggest we bring it.

HRM-9 walked towards the baby husky, that Cx4 Storm held the husky.

HRM-9: Babe I think we should bring it the base.

Cx4 Storm: *excited* Really!!

HRM-9: *nervous* Yeah... anyway, I'm deploy the Fulton recovery balloon.

HRM-9 place Fulton recovery balloon onto the husky, and flies in the air as the VTOL picked the dog up hearing the dog whimper.

FN-49: *sad* AWWW DOGGGY!!!

LM-S: It's okay, these guys picked the dog up back to our base. Come on.
