A/n: So, this chapter will be continued from the previous chapter. I hope you enjoyed the previous chapter which is 'We Who Dares'. Let' start the chapter 8. Stay sharp.

______________________________________________

(Y/n)'s POV:

After Tenzou gave the order, Erik and I moved to an abandoned building that faced directly to the compound area, giving us a good view from our position. We got into prone position and Erik deployed his RSASS and looked to the area.

I looked at the area with my binocular. I turned to my left a bit and saw the team prepared to breach the compound through the fences.

Comms: Tenzou: "Spotter, how's the area?"

Comms: (Y/n): "Left and right clear. You may proceed."

Then, Izmash cutted the fences and make a entrance for the team. The team then proceed to the corner of a building. Tenzou poked out his head a bit to make sure the open area cleared from the enemy. After confirming it, the team proceed to the target building. But, i felt something, something wrong. It was too quite and not too much enemy activities. I then spoke to Erik.

(Y/n): "Erik, I have a bad feeling about this..." i said in worried.

Erik: "Me too.... It's too quite." He said in calm tone. "But let's just hope that everything goes well."

(Y/n): "Hope so.." Then, I looked back through my binocular and saw the team had entered the building.

Location: Target Building

Tenzou's POV:

Once we had reached the entrance of the building, I gave a hand signal to Zulu to examinate the door for any traps. He checked and confirmed that no traps were set up. He then reached the door handle, and opened it after I gave the signal. We stormed in and halted at the corner. The target will be at 2nd floor. So we proceed carefully to the 2nd floor without making any noise. Every corner we checked to make sure that no enemy flanked us or realized about our presence. Finally, we reached the 2nd floor and headed to the target. We believed that Adam Taurus and his lieutenant will be there. Once we reached infront of the door, Danny prepared his 'Door kicker' which use to breach through the door. I gave him the signal to destory the door. He took a back swing and slammed the door, making the entrance opened widely. Then, I threw the flashbang and waited until it exploded. After that, we stormed into the room.

But, what we found next was a shocking thing. The room was empty. Only a chair at the middle of the room with a sign said, 'GOTCHA BITCH!' We all looked at it confused when suddenly we heard a ticking sound. Then I realized it was a trap. I yelled at them to leave the room immediately.

Tenzou: "BOMB! EVERYONE OUT NOW!" We rushed out from the room and narrowly escpaed the blast, knocking me to the wall outside the room. My ears were ringing as I struggled to stand up. Then, I heard (Y/n) yelled through the comms.

Comms: (Y/n): "TENZOU! COMING TENZOU! YOU THERE?!"

Comms: Tenzou: "I'm still here...." I said tried to regain my posture.

Comms: (Y/n): "You better get the fuck out from the building! Enemy reinforcements approaching from the west!"

Comms: Tenzou: "Copy that. Stay hidden until it's necessay. Tenzou out."

Tenzou: "Allright! Let's get the fuck out from her!" We then rushed back to the main entrance. Once we reached there, we were greeted by the enemy bullets.

Izmash: "BLYAT!"

Tenzou: "OPEN FIRE!" We all started to shoot the enemy. The sniper team also gave us some sniper cover from the abandoned building outside the compound. "THIS MISSION IS SCREWED! Erik, call the base! We need the evac now!" I yelled through the comms.

Comms: Erik: "On it!"

We have to get out from the compound. We started to give suppressing fire towards the enemy. And one by one, we managed to get out from the compound. The bullets whizzing by. We then, regrouped with the sniper team and went to the extraction point.

*Timeskip after the team arrived at the Extraction point.*

3rd POV:

The team reached their extraction point. Then, Erik set up the comms and contacted the FOB.

Comms: Erik: "Spartan base, this is Spartan team. We've reached our extraction point and ready for pickup."

Comms: FOB Spartan: "Spartan team, loud and clear. Evac inbound, 10 minutes. Out."

Tenzou: "Allright, set up perimeter near this point. Once the evac arrives, Izmash will throw the smoke grenade."

Suddenly, a bullets whizzled pass them and the gun shots going loud.

Tenzou: "CONTACT TO THE WEST!" The team began to take cover behind the trees and returned fire. "Erik, contact the evac and told them that this will be a hot extraction!" He yelled to him.

Comms: Erik: "Whiplash, this is Spartan team. We engaged with the enemy near the extraction point and I'm fucking tell you that this is a real shit!"

Comms: Whiplash: "Spartan, this is Whiplash. Loud and clear. Evac is 1 minute from your position. Prepared for close support."

Comms: Erik: "Roger Whiplash." He then turn off the comms. "Izmash! Pop the smoke!"

Izmash then took out the smoke grenade, pulled the pin and threw it. "SMOKE!" Then, the smoke grenade blew off and produced the green smoke, marking their position.

Comms: Whiplash: "Spartan, this is Whiplash. I got your position and coming in hot."

(Y/n)'s POV:

As we're engaging the enemy, I can hear the bullheads engine. The evac arrived and they started to fire towards the enemy position with their miniguns. The first bullhead touched down while the second one hovered above to give suppresing fire.

Tenzou: "TEAM 2! GO TO YOUR EVAC NOW!" After he said that, team 2 rushed to first evac. Once they're on board, the bullhead lifted off and the second bullhead approached to land.

Erik: "RPG!" he shouted and as I aimed at it, it was too late. The enemy shot it first and the missile flew to the second bullhead and hit it directly at the cockpit. The bullhead exploded.

Tenzou: "SHIT SHIT! OUR EVAC IS SCREWED!"

Izmash: "Erik! Tell the first bullhead to get out from here!"

Erik then turn on his comms.

Comms: Erik: "Whiplash, get out from here now!"

Comms: Whiplash: "What?! But we still have rooms for your team!"

Comms: Erik: "No point! You will be shot down on you approached. Now get out from here!"

Comms: Whiplash: "Dammit! I hope you guys can make it out from there. Goodluck..."

Comms: Erik: "Thanks, and get them to the safety." With that, he turned off his comms

Sierra's POV:

We shocked when the second bullhead was shot down. Then, our bullhead started to fly from the extraction point. I was confused why our bullhead didn't landed to pick them. I contacted the pilot.

Comms: Sierra: "Why the heck we don't land?"

Comms: Pilot: "The fight is intense and RPGs making the landing impossible."

Comms: Sierra: "But we just fucking leave them! We need to land now!"

Comms: Pilot: "We can't! The team request us to leave! If we land now, we will be shot down!"

Comms: Sierra: "Fuck it!" I then turned off the comms. I stared at the extraction point where the gun fight still raging on. "Please come back safely..." I muttered.

(Y/n)'s POV:

As the first bullhead flew off from the area, we continued to fight the enemy. But we have to move to the secondary extraction point. Erik then contacted the base about the situation.

Comms: Erik: "Spartan base, this is Spartan team. First extraction point is screwed. Second team has been evacuated from the area. Our bullheads has been shot down and we're moving to the secondary extraction point. I repeat, we're moving to the secondary extraction point."

Comms: FOB Spartan: "Spartan, copy that. We will send the evac once you've reached the secondary extraction point. Be safe. Spartan base out."

Tenzou: "We need to move now! To the secondary extraction point!"

We then ran from the area and make our way to the secondary extraction point.

*Timeskip brought to you by the team arrived at the SEP after running for a while.*

(Y/n)'s POV:

We've been running for about 15 minutes, and the enemy were chasing us. We're in desperate situation to live. If the enemy captured us, none of us will see the light anymore and I will never see Blake again.

Tenzou: "We are about 10 minutes from the second extraction point. Keep up the pace!" Suddenly, a rocket propelled grenade flew directly near Tenzou and Danny position and exploded, making both of them been threw about 20 feet from the blast. But Danny took most of the blast because he was the nearest one. We stopped and ran towards them.

Tenzou: "SHIITTTT! GAHHHHH!" He tried to stand up but failed. He have multiples of shrapnel wound a massive cut on his right leg. "FUCK! I CAN'T MOVE!"

Izmash: "(Y/n)! Go treat his wound! I'll go and check Danny." I ran to Tenzou and started to give him medical attention. I took out my tourniquet and put it a bit above from the wound at his right leg. Izmash came back with sad look.

Izmash: "Danny..... He's gone..." I was shocked and broke when hear this.

*Gun shots sound*

Erik: "Contact!" Erik yelled and started to open fire to the enemy followed by Izmash. Tenzou took his rifle and started to shoot while I continued to treat his wound. The enemy were about to surround us. Then, Tenzou made an unexpected decision.

Tenzou: "(Y/n), give me one mag." I looked at him with confused.

(Y/n): "Why?" I asked and took out one of my magazines and gave it to him.

Tenzou: "(Y/n), I'm releaving my duty as team leader to you.... lead them to the extraction point, now." He said and I was shocked with his decision.

(Y/n): "What?! But why?! You can still move! Don't make a stupid decision like that!" I said as I realized his decision.

Tenzou: "No! You need to get out from here! You're still young to die..... With my current situation, I can't move.... If you carry me, I'll be the burden for the team to survive..." I began to cry and begged him to come with me.

(Y/n): "Please... please come with us... I don't you to die! You are my father! My family!" I can't hold my tear anymore as his eyes widen when hear this and began to smile. The rest of the team were still engaging the enemy.

Tenzou: "Son... you have to let me go... I can't move myself now.. All I can do, is hold them off until you and the rest gone in the forest... At least, I can kill 10 more bastards before I die hehe...." I remained silent as the rest came to us.

Erik: "We need to move now!" *aimed his rifle at the enemy on the right and fired* "Can you move?" He asked Tenzou.

Tenzou: "No I can't. You guys have to leave now." This earned a shock from Izmash and Erik.

Izmash: "Wha- No! We can't leave you here!"

Tenzou: "Yes, I'm ordering you. And, (Y/n) is our leader now...." Izmash sighed in defeat.

Izmash: "I really hate about his situation... But, thank you for everything, brother."

Tenzou: "Likewise....."

Erik: "I hope we see each other on the other side...." Erik said, almost cried.

Tenzou: "Same as me... and (Y/n)." I looked at him as tears flown on my cheecks. "Thank you, for all. I saw you as my own son. Live to world and keep protect the innocent and weak." He said and smiled.

(Y/n): "Thank you...*sniff* dad..."

Tenzou: "Always. Now go. Run to the extraction point." I stood up and readied my rifle.

(Y/n): "Till Valhalla...."

Tenzou: "Till Valhalla..." I then faced Izmash and Erik.

(Y/n): "Let's go!" They nodded and started to run for the extraction point. I walked for a few feets from him and stopped. I turned to him and said, "I love you, dad...." He said back, "I love you too, son..." I turned back and started to run. I heard him yelled at enemy and started to shoot. I can't control my tears. All the memories with him and Danny flashbacked in my mind. "I'll see you both on the other side..." I muttered.

*Timeskip after Izmash, Erik and (Y/n) arrived at the second extraction point.*

Location: Abandoned town

We arrived at an abandoned town which will be our secondary extraction point. We sat down in an abandoned restaurant to catch our breath back. We were sad because we've lost two brothers. But we have to keep move forward. We mourned on them but we still need to move forward.

(Y/n): "Erik, contacted the base and tell them that we've reached our second extraction point and the current situations..." He nodded and turned on the comms.

Comms: Erik: "Spartan base, this is spartan team. Do you read me over?"

Comms: *Static*

Comms: "Spartan base, come in. Over."

Comms: *Static*

Location: FOB Neptune

Ozpin's POV:

I may looked calm, but inside, I'm nervous. It's been almost one hour since the last communication between us and them. I sat beside Gen. Ironwood as he crossed his arm, waiting for the comms.

Ozpin: "Dammit... I hate this situations."

Ironwood: "Same as me, Ozpin. Same as me....."

Ozpin: "You may have to get the backup in standby. Once we have the communications back, we will send the backups immediantly."

Ironwood: "Consider it done."

Ozpin: "Thank you..."

Location: Abandoned town.

(Y/n)'s POV:

Erik: "Fuck! Comms are scattered. We can't call for evac....." I began to worry as he said about it. What if the evac won't come? What if we died before the evac arrives? The questions began to fill my mind. But I snapped it out and began to think wisely.

(Y/n): "Allright. Here's the point. Last time we contacted them about 1 hours, right?" Erik thinked about it and nodded. "Okay, I assumed that if they don't get our call in about 10 minutes more, they will send the backup. So, we will defend this area until we have the signal back and relay our situations to them."

Izmash: "Good point. So what do we do now?"

(Y/n): "How much ammo do you guys have?"

Erik: "About 3 mags for rifle and 3 mags my beloved pistol."

Izmash: "Enough to wipe out about 2 waves."

(Y/n): "Good. I assumed that enemy are closing to our position. So, this building will be our last position. We will make the last stand at here. Izmash and I will defend here and Erik will provide sniper support on top of this building. Good?" They both nodded. "Allright. Erik, if you see any movement, inform me. If you have the comms back, relay to the ASAP. Got it?"

Erik: "Crystal clear."

(Y/n): "Good. Izmash, you have the C4s?"

Izmash: "7 more."

(Y/n): "Lovely! We will set the charges at the road in front of us. Erik, if you see any movement, inform me and if you have the comms back online, immediantly contact the base for backups."

Izmash/Erik: "Willco."

(Y/n): "Good. This is where we make our last stand. They want the hell, we will give to them, and we will arrange their meeting with God, even if the God didn't want to meet them. Let's move!" With that, Erik began to run to the top of the restaurant and Izmash and I exit the restaurant to set up the charges to slow down the enemy movement.

*Timeskip brought to you by (Y/n) almost blew the charges.*

All had been set up and it was dawn. I was relaxing when Erik spoke through the comms.

Comms: "Heads up. Movement in front."

I poked my head a bit and saw massive group of the White Fang. I realized that this was really our final stand. I signalled Izmash to ready the detonator.

Comms: (Y/n): "Once the charges explode, we open fire."

We waited for them to approach calmly. I locked my eyes at the front group while waiting for them to enter the blast radius. Once they reached into the zone, I signalled Izmash to press the detonator.

*BOOOM* *BOOOOMM* *BOOOMMM*

(Y/n): "Open fire!" We began to shoot at them as the enemy scattered to find covers. The front group were totally annihilated by the C4s. Izmash sprayed the bullets and took out a group. Erik continued to give the sniper support and cleared the left and right flank. We kept firing and firing. But the enemy were overwhelming us. They were half of the way from our position and they shot at our position ferociously. I keep my head low and popped out a bit to shoot them. Izmash took cover behind the wall.

Izmash: "Shit! There's too many!" He yelled.

(Y/n): "I know! But we have to defend our position!" Then, Erik spoke through the comms.

Comms: Erik: "(Y/n)! I have the signal back!" My eyes widen and yelled through the comms.

Comms: (Y/n): "What the fuck are you waiting for?! Call the backup now!"

Comms: Erik: "On it!". "Spartan base! This is Spartan team! We're at Secondary extraction point and need heavy backup! Enemy are overhelming us and we don't have much time!"

Comms: FOB Neptune: "Spartan, Copy. Hold for a bit. Heavy back up en route. ETA, 10 minutes."

Comms: Erik: "They need to be faster than that!"

Comms: FOB Neptune: "Just hold it on. They are trying their best to move fast. Be safe. Spartan base out."

Comms: Erik: "(Y/n)! ETA: 10 Minutes!"

(Y/n): "10 minutes.... that's all we need." Then, I heard Izmash shouted.

Izmash: "ARRRRRRGHHHHHH!!!" He feel to the ground.

(Y/n): "Izmash!" I ran to him to check his condition. When I reached him, I saw multiple gun wound at both of his leg. The bullets went through his leg. One at his right shoulder and one at his left chest. I started to give him medical attention.

Izmash: "Shit shit shit! Don't treat me. I don't have much time to live longer.... but I still can fight."

(Y/n): "No! I don't want another brother died!" I yelled at him as I grabbed his collar.

Izmash: "It's okay kid... I will die eventually, but I still have the time to fight beside you..." he smiled. I grabbed his MK48 and gave it to him.

(Y/n): "Last stand."

Izmash: "Last stand."

I helped him to stand up and we started to shoot again. One by one we took the enemy down as they approached out position. While I continued to shoot, my left sides began to silent. I looked at my left and saw, Izmash body on the ground. My heart trembled as I looked at his body. Then, the front began to silent. They stopped firing at us, and I was confused. I took cover behind a wall on my right. Erik ran from the top to my position. He then saw Izmash's body on the ground. His eyes widen.

Erik: "What happen?"

(Y/n): "He's... gone..."

Erik: "....Fuck.." he then clenched his fist. "Requiescat in Pace...." he muttered. I poked my head a bit to see what's going on and saw a white fang operator walked to our position while carried white flag.

(Y/n): "The fucking hell?"

The white fang operator stopped and began to spoke.

White Fang operator: "I have words from our high command."

Erik: "What?!" He yelled.

White Fang operator: "Surrender yourself and you will be treat kindly by us. If you don't, you will meet the faith like the rest of your member." I felt my rage started to control my body and gripped my rifle tightly. I looked at Erik and he nodded, knowing what I'm going to do. Then, I rose up from my cover and yelled.

(Y/n): "FUCK YOU!!!"
