The Chateau du Marquis Ste Evremonde

Monseigneur Charles Ste Evremonde, former President of Bonstock, sits on his desk, watching the wwaves of the ocean. It is a balmy summer day, not a cloud in the sky. No worries are occupying the mind of the former president, and he sits peacefully. A butler comes in.

"Moneigneur, votre dinner!"

"Merci, Albert," say the Marquis, taking the plate. Suddenly, shots are heard. Evremonde mutters "What the..."

ooc: I have to go for an hour or 2, but I'll be back.

The Marquis leaned forward on his chair. He asked his butler "What were those shots?"

"Monseigneur, I do not know."

"Please investigate. Talk to the guards."

"Yes, monseigneur." The butler walked over though the hallways. He came to the gate where the guard house was. He opened the door, only to see the two guards lying on the ground, holes right through their heads, seemingly shot by a far away sniper. He ran back to the Marquis, but passed in a hallway with two men. He was shot and killed instantly.

bump!!!

The Marquis sat on his deck, wondering what the h**l was going on. He decided to investigate. He went into the hallway, then gasped as he saw his butler on the ground, dying.

"Mon dieu! Albert!"

"Monseingneur," said the butler, bleeding badly. "They want... to kidnap you... you must... contact President Hu Li..." His head fell back onto the ground, and he was dead. The Marquis immediatly ran to his study, grabbed the phone an dialed the number.

At the headquarters of President Hu Li
85 miles away

The phone rang on the desk. The President, reviewing her budget for the next year, picked up the phone. She said "Hello?"

"Hu Li, it's me!"

"Charles? You sound frantic! What is the matter?"

"Foreign agents are in the house... They're trying to capture me!"

She gasped "Why? Who? Terrorists?"

"I dont know! Get the BSS leader! Send them out here..." Suddenly the line was cut.

"Charles? Charles?" The President then hung up, and franticly dialed the number of James Lee, head of the Bonstocknian Special Security, BSS. She yelled into the phone as he picked up. "Lee! Get every avaliable man to Former President Evremonde's chateau. Foreign terrorists are after him!"

"Yes, ma'am. Right away." He turned to his deputy, Billy Johnson, and said "We have a terrosist kidnapping of former President Evremonde. Alert all Bonstocknian forces to search for the terrorists!"

Meanwhile, at the Marquis St Evremonde's chateau

The Marquis heard the line cut. He tried to hide, but the terrorists were already entering the study. He looked at his ancestors' old suit of armor, passed down from generation to generation. He pulled out the sword, held it, and started thrashing at one of the kidnappers. At close range, the man's gun was useless, and he was stabbed in the chest (ooc: The Marquis St Evremonde is a skilled fencer, and it was one of his main hobbies when not working when he was President of Bonstock). Then two men came from behind, and grabbed him, taking away his prized sword. They pulled the former President away out of the house. By this time 30 UH-60 Blakhawks had taken off, and were on they're way to the area, carrying 300 BSS operatives (ooc: BSS also is a Special Forces organization, and are trained vigerously in weaponry, martial arts, and most everything they need to fufil thier mission). A Wasp Amphibious ship was transiting off shore, perhaps going to the North Sea to support operations against whaling. It immediatly changed course, and launched AAAVs and an LCAC at the beach, carrying 1,000 Bonstocknian Marines.

"Pearl 1, this is base. Entering LZ."

"Roger base. Preparing to drop." In a field near the chateu, 10 BSS operatives rappeled down ropes from their UH-60 Blackhawk. "Roger base troops out."

"Roger. Pearl 2, entering LZ."

"Roger Base."

"Base this is Frogfoot 1, we are on the ground."

"Roger Frogfoot one prepare to storm the house." The squad braced themselves and waited for the next squads. Suddenly a bomb went off.

"BASE, THIS IS FROGFOOT ONE! EXPLOSION IN TARGET! TAKING CASUALTIES! REQUEST DUSTOFF!"

"Roger, Frogfoot one. Medevac on the way. Pearl 3 come in. After dropping troops, medevac casualties."

"Roger, base."

"Base this is Mallard. LCAC going for assault with 20 AAAVs." The Wasp amphibious assault ship had sent the first wave, and it was going towards the beach.

"Roger, Mallard. Get those Marines on the beach and then prepare for second wave. Frogfoot company, prepare for infantry search missions."

"Roger, this is Frogfoot HQ. Will copy."

Bonstock told be over a RL telephone call that Evremonde was being kidnapped, so I thought I would intervine, if you let me, of course.

ooc: I tried to say this last night, but after I completed this AOL knocked me off... grrr...

ic:

A convoy of 5 trucks headed for the little resort town of Colleville. Along with them are members of the 365th Engineer Battalion. They are headed towards the Chateau in order to investigate the bombs that went off there for evidence. A bomb squad is with them, accompanied by other engineers. One of the bomb squad members is Staff Sergeant Robert Mickles, leader of the squad. His squad has two bomb sniffing German Shepards in their truck. They pass trough the town, and the dogs start barking wildly. One of the men says "Shut up, mutts!" But Mickles carefully observes the barking, and says "Hey, they may have found something!"

He called to the driver "Tell the other truckes to stop for a second. I want to investigate something!" The driver did as told, and the five trucks stopped right near the Colleville pier. The dogs got out, and instantly ran over to two Honda Civics parked in the parking lot. Mickles cried out "I think they've found something! Lets take a look in these cars!" He looked in, and saw a timer on a small block. He read the block, and it said "M112 Composition C4." The timer was at 50 seconds. He yelled out "Guys, its a bomb!" Thinking quickly, he pulled out his wire-cutters, smashed the driver seat window, and grabbed the bomb. He looked at it and saw the wires connecting to the block from the timer. He severed this with the wire cutters, and the bomb was disarmed. He breathed a sigh of relief, then looked over at the other car, and saw an identical bomb, only this one read "10 seconds." Mickles' eyes widened, and he ran over and smashed the windshield. "Two seconds" it read, and he pushed a random button. The timer froze. Mickles put a hand on his helmat, and breathed another sigh of relief. He looked over at the passanger's seat, and saw half of a piece of paper, reading "Operation Wishful Thinking: The kidnapping of former Bonstock President Charles St Evremonde." Beside it was a wallet, which he grabbed, and found a driver's liscense and residence permits for seven people. He also found seven passports, looking as if from Sniper Country. His buddies had by this time ran up to him. Mickles said "I think we've found somethin big, guys!"

Within hours, BSS agents swarmed the area, pouring over the evidence. A tip was recieved that seven men had gotten out of the cars and went beachcombing, but were not seen again. Someone also reported a small wake from a periscope coming up. BSS quickly assumed it was a mini submarine that had taken them away. This was significant as the People's Council on Bonstocknian Liberation (PCBL), a radical group deticating to overthrowing the Bonstocknian government, made great use of minisubs, thier weapon of choice in many terrorist incidents. Among these include the destruction of Vica's oil tankers and offshore platforms and attempting to smuggle nuclear weapons out of Bonstock undetected. It was beleived that PCBL was working in conjunction with foreign agents in the kidnapping. The Bonstocknian navy was put on full alert and quickly put out to sea, along with the first Series 21 advanced destroyer. ASW helicopters roamed. However, not much was found, except one reported a small baby whale that had lost its pack, or so the radar identified it as. Environmantal agencies were notified, but this was not time for saving the whales, even if a Bonstocknian carrier battle group was doing that in the North Sea off Kvenland. President Hu Li had ordered all Bonstocknian ships on full alert, and they scoured the area for the submarine.

ooc: Yes, Zecro can get involed.

You should get DSL, cancel your second phone line and cancel AOL, it proboably WILL be cheaper. BTW, what about the nukes held at Zecro Central Defense Corps (ZCDC)? Are you ready to take them back or what? Can I HAVE them? Kidding...

Froogle just finished his dinner when Linda Hi (Presidential Secratiary (PS)) came into the room. "Leader, on line one is Hu Li, she says it's urgent."
"OK," says Froogle and walks up to his phone terminal. "Hello"
"Mr. Korgyz, there's been a situation. Evremonde was kidnapped and his chateau was damaged by a bomb."
"WHAT?!" screams Froogle. "Do you know where he is?"
"We have reason to belive that he was taken in a mini-submarine to Sniper Country. Can we enlist inn your services to Bonstock?"
"Of course, I will blockade my waterways to m ake sure that no craft gets through and I will also send a group of my fastest submarines to patrol Sniper Country's waterways."
"Thank you, Mr Korgyz."
Froogle hangs up the telephone. "Ms. Li, will you get me Burundi on line two?"
"Right away, leader," says Linda Hi. After a few seconds she says "Leader, line two has Burundi on it."
"Burundi, I want you to blockade our waterways to search for a Bonstockian minisub, supposedly carrying President Evremonde. Do not destroy the sub. Also, send two units (unit=10) of our fatest submarines to patrol the waters of Sniper country. If you manage to catch the sub, detain it. But a better way would be to place a tracker on it. Another thing to do would be to fire an EMP torpedo at it, and then catch it."
"Right away Leader. I take it Evremonde has been kidnapped?"
"You're a quick one, Burundi," says Froogle and hangs up the telephone. "Ms. Li, get me Sniper country on line two."
"Right away, Leader," says Linda and with the same efficiency dials up Sniper Country. "Leader, Sniper Country is on line two."
"We have a situation, Leader. It seems that some of your men have kidnaped Evremonde. Zecro is proposing to patrol your waters with our fastest submarines. Under no conditions is the minisub to be destroyed."

I'm sorry, I do not know your leader's name or title. You have to continue the conversation.

Yes, send me back those nukes. And I think Sniper Country is lead by "The Senate," but I dont know who leads it.

And is it Linda Hi or Linda Li? If its Linda Li, then why the heck are you using the name of a sixth grade girl at our school? And if its Linda Hi, well, then I've never heard of a person with that name...

IC:

The Bonstocknian Navy has collected all of its ships in Bonstock. They patrol the waters all around, looking for the sub, but nothing has been found. A special type of radar used for locating Bonstocknian Type-14 minisubs is used, but the only thing that happens is the baby whale grows larger, and is heading out to sea. A Bonstocknian Coast Guard helicopter takes off from its base on a mission to take the whale back to its home, so it is not killed as a child.

the 'baby whale' is actually the minisub, but this is unknown to us in IC. Type 14 Stealth subs were developed by Bonstock, but then one was stolen and reverse engineered by PCBL, who build 4 of them, and is probably helping you. We developed radars to track these subs, as demonstrated in the Vica crisis.

At the headquarters of President Hu Li
12 hours later

President Hu Li sat at her desk, looking at maps of the Bonstocknian coast. Two men in dark suits came in. The President stood up and said "Agent Lee, Agent Johnson, has he been found?"

Agent Lee replied "No not yet."

"WHAT! Do you mean to tell me that they got through?"

"Ma'am, we never found a trace of the minisub we belive carried them out."

"Are they still in Bonstock?"

"Perhaps yes. We will send all of our agents and operatives to ry to find them. We will also up airport and port security. But there is one clear thing: These are foreign kidnappers, perhaps aided by, but not specifically serving under PCBL. However, we can find no specific motive for a foreign government wanting Evremonde. Currently, his only power is through you. I can see why PCBL would want to take sweet revenge on him, but no foreign government has a care about him. We think that they know you will do anything to get him back alive, and they are most likely looking for something from you."

"Like what?"

"I dont know yet, but I believe we must tighten security around you. You could be in danger, Ms President."

"Very well. I do not want information about this leaked, so as not to cause mass panic. I want your organization to do everything it takes to get him back, and I want him alive. Make no conssecions. No ransom, no nothing. If you must, employ the threat of force. If things break down, raid the place where he is held to get him. Put our forces on DEFCON-2, and inform Skynet to keep on alert."

At the headquarters of Bonstocknian President Hu Li

Hu Li looked out the window, plotting her next move. She knew that blackmail could be imminant, and decided to prevent it. She phoned Agent Lee, telling him to come up to her headquarters. He complied, and came up.

"Sir," Hu Li began, still turned towards the window "Do we know waht country is behind this?"

"Yes, we have credible reason to believe this is the work of Sniper Country."

"Very well... I shall do this like I did before."

Lee looked up. He reached into his pocket, and trew a small wallet to the President. Hu Li caught it, and Agent Lee said "Welcome back to the BSS, Agent Hu. What are oyu intent on doing?"

"Get me a few men. We're gonna go to the Sniper's nest."

Sniper Country embassy in Bonstock

A lady carrying a package waqlked into the delivery section of the embassy, knowing that going this way meant not going through security. The delivery lady walked to the elevator, and went up to the top floor. She then walked into the office of the ambassador. She said "Sir, a package."

"Thank you." said the ambassador.

Then the delivery person put the package onto the table. Then she reached into her pocket, and grabbed out a pistol. She said "Sir, please follow me, or you will find holes in your brain." The shocked ambassador stood there, and four more delivery people, this time carrying 9mm Machine Pistols, grabbed the ambassador, and ushered him to the roof. A helicopter was waiting, and the people went aboard, the ambassador still stunned. Security was avoided, and no one figured out as the helicopter took off towards a secret Bonstocknian base. Meanwhile, Bonstocknian forces were being mobilized for a war with another nation, more to aid in the other, secret war by mobilizing. None of the public knew anything.

(ooc: destroying her credibility? Shes a 25-year-old bachlorette! And Evremonde is also unmarried, though he is more like 55. It is only kept secret to prevent consperacy theories and keep the tabloid press at bay.)

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

ooc: not much security in the delivery truck parking lot... too inefficient... she went in a back door anyway, and the gun was in a pocket anyway.

ic:

The helicopeter swerved east. The night in Port Yuko glowed brightly. The gleaming skyscrapers shone for miles as the helicopter went. Soon, they were flying over clearly suburban areas, and little houses below were illuminated by the omnipresent streetlights. Soon, the houses grew farther apart, until they were flying over dark fields and barns. The terrain grew higher, and the conifers below seemed invisible and out of reach, shadowy and mysterious, with the dark mountains looming high in the background. Soon the helicopter flew over a large lake, and on the coast of the lake, found a large clearing in the forest. Fighter jets swarmed around on their midnight patrols. Clearly visible below wer scores of buildings, hangars, HMMWVs, trucks, and aircraft. Some of the aircraft looked highly unusual. Some looked as if they were flying saucers. The "delivery lady" looked at the ambassador. She said "I hope oyu are having a nice tour of Bonstock. We are about to land at Nozomi Station Air Force Base. This facility is guarded by scores of fighter planes and two full infantry divisions. We will hold you here for questioning. Those Sniper Country fools think you will be held in Port Yuko, at my headquarters. They are in for a nasty little shock when they try to get in. They wont even know about this place... no maps show it, orbiting spy sattelites are jammed... This is as secretive as it gets. You will be serving me."

The ambassador realized the plans were going wrong. He had thought he would be held in Port Yuko, where he could be found. Still, he knew that he was being tracked, and that the implant in his arm would lead to his liberation. But at what cost with this facility guarded so heavily? What was this place? Thinking it would be better to get out over water then be held in this place, he leaped towards the door. The guards, dressed in black suits, grabbed him, and the "Delivery lady" inserted a small ball in the ambassador's mouth. She said "What I just put in your mouth is a small grenade... If you do not serve me, I will simply push this detonator, blowing 32 teeth into your brain." One of the guards taped the man's mouth shut, and then taped his hands together. The ambassador felt suddenly afraid, wondering if the IMF/BOU would get to him in time before this lady killed him.

Names confuse me. It's Hi, but only because I couldn't think of a good name... and because I typed it up at irregular intervals throughout the day (also because I was at Pat's house).

About the parking lot, I think the TRUCKS are inefficeint...

ZCDC
"Burundi, have you managed to trace anything?"
"No, Leader."
"Get me Hu Li on the phone."
"Yes, Leader." Burundi quickly dialed up Bonstock's President's HQ and gave the phone to Froogle.
"Hello? Can I get Hu Li on the line?"
"She is not in right now, can I take a message?"
"Tell her Frogle Korgyz called. Goodbye," said Froogle and hung up.
"Well?"
"She's not in, Burundi."
"Odd, what would the president be out doing at this time?"
"Something... somethingeyish no doubt."

Nozomi Station, Bonstock

The ambassador was taken down to a bunker deep underground. They passed what seemed to be an alternate command center, complete with maps of the world and of Bonstock. Hu Li, the "delivery lady," walked infront, the ambassador guarded by two guards. Hu Li found a small numberpad in the wall. She typed a secret code, and a concrete door opened. Inside was a small room with a fold-down bed and a toilet. Hu Li said to the ambassador "Here is your cell. You will live here. But first, we will have to ask you a few 'questions.'" She paused for a moment. "When Im through with you," she said, holding up the detonator, "you will be begging me to push this button!"

ooc: you might be able to figure out where I got the character "Hu Li" from by now...

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

[ooc: remember, Nozomi Station is guarded by two infantry divisions, and has the latest in anti infultration technology. And as Zecro can attest, sattelites are jammed overhead, so no one really knows it exists.

And if you have no clue, watch the movie Rush Hour 2]

ic:

Hu Li took off the tape arount the ambassador's mouth, and removed the grenade. The then said "All right. Tell me everything you know about Operation Wishful Thinking!"

"What are you talking about? I dont know!"

Hu Li kicked him in the shin. The ambassador moaned loudly. She said "What do you know about the recent kidnapping of former President Charles St Evremonde?"

"Nothing. Absoulutly nothing."

"Perhaps some solitary confinement will refresh your memory." She left the room, and shut the door. The room turned pitch black. The ambassador felt for the bed, hoping to go to sleep and wake up as if it were a bad dream. Yet the constant noise from the nearby control room kept him awake. He started to creap towards insanity.

Meanwhile, in the control room, Hu Li dictated a communique to Sniper Country. It said "We have your ambassador, and he is clearly in pain and suffering. If you give us former President Charles St Evremonde alive, we will give you the ambassador alive."

Port Yuko, Bonstock

Dark Terror's bombs had burned Port Yuko to the ground. Bonstock had been completely devestated by the time the agents came back. The port facilities were burned out, ships sunk in the harbor, smoke still rising. The once proud skyscrapers were reduced to a pile of rubble. Also reduced to rubble was the Sniper Country Embassy (ooc: I saved your guy's life... the guards were all killed along with 5 million Bonstocknians). The scene would haunt all who saw it for years. Women were going through the streets, their clothes burned off, many with large wounds, to get water for their families. Most of the menfolk were looking for ways to dig people out of the rubble and build shelter for the night. Children assaulted the Sniper Country agents, asking for food, water, and medical care. One kid simply sat beneath a small piece of rubble, holding a teddy bear. The kid had no legs. The agents wondered what they were doing in this country.

Nozomi Station, Bonstock

Secrecy had saved the base. It was unscratched, along with most of Bonstock's bomber fleet, and the odd-looking aircraft. From here, Hu Li commanded what was left of Bonstock. Having been given emergency powers, she could now execute anyone almost at will if they were an enemy of Bonstock. In Port Yuko, known spies and PCBL operatives disappeared in the night, and were taken to secret prisons to be interrogated. The Sniper Country agents would have to watch thier backs carefully.

Meanwhile, with Nozomi Station being one of the only adequate facilities in Bonstock, troops poured in, many having lost thier units and their weapons, to be armed at Nozomi Station. Bonstock would rebuild, but until then, no one knew what to do.

The Sniper COuntry agents turned to see the men with in uniform. The men carried machine pistols, and pointed them at the agents. One of them said "Halt!" The agents froze. Who were these people? The men drew closer. The one said "Come! Drop your guns, then follow us!" With machine pistols into their backs, the men complied, and put their hands on their heads. The soldiers motioned them over to an open field. A helicopter landed, and the men forced the Sniper Country agents in.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

The men pointed their machine pistols at the team leader. One of them said "Look, punk, I could empty this magazine into your heart and not give a d--n at all. BUt we have to many questions to ask you. So just shut up, cause we really dont care."

The helicopter flew over the charred ramaines of the once proud city, through the forest, and to Nozomi Station. The helicopter landed at the base. The SC agents were greeted by Hu Li. She said "Welcome, gentlemen. Let me show you to your rooms." Hu Li lead them down to the binker, down the elevator, past the control room, and to the dark cell room. The SC men were thrown in with the ambassador. "We hope you enjoy your stay," said Hu Li sarcasitcally. The door shut, and the room was again pitch black.

ooc: Im Bonstock, don't worry.


ic: Hu Li heard the banging, and said "Someone seems willing to talk." She and 5 guards opened the door, and Hu Li asked the team leader "Do you have any information I'm looking for?"

"What information?"

"Dont play dumb with me. I know you know exactly what Im talking about." She drew closer to the team leader. "So?"

"Why should I tell you?"

Hu Li pulled out a gun, pointing it at the team leader's head. "Because I asked politely."

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Still pointing the gun, she said "What are you talking about? The bombs only fell on Port Yuko, not Evremonde's chateau. Now tell me where he is before I blow your head all over this cell. And just because Dark Terror is full of s**t doesn't mean you can insult my policies. Now tell me what I want to know, or you will be food for the rats!"

The ambassador looked pale, still wondering what was going on. He looked dazed and confused. The other team members watched the innterrogation in horror, unable to do anything.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

"Perhaps some time alone will do you well. I could shoot you now, but perhaps I'll just shoot someone else..." She then pointed the gun at the stunned ambassador, cocked it, and aimed to fire.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Pointing her pistol at the team leader, Hu Li replied "I'm not that stupid, letting you have the gun. So anyway, tell me about the secret bases Sniper Country has. Tell me everything about your Special Operations. If the information is valid, the ambassador and your teammates live. If not... you will return home a failure for not keeping your men alive."

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

"Well, if you are so willing to die, why dont I just take you to a secure location and leave you? That sounds like a good idea." The guards grabbed the team leader, and he was taken out of the cell. The door slammed shut and locked, leaving the other captives in.

20 km of the coast of Bonstock

A patrol of 8 Bonstocknian F-40 Microphones flew off the coast. The F-40 was a new class, the type built upon the original hypersonic interceptor. The program was kept secret for years, until it was all that stood between Dark Terror's B-4s and destruction of Bonstock.

"Owl Light lead, this is base, do you copy?"

"Roger base. Status good."

"Roger."

"Base, this is Owl Light lead, look-down sensors are detecting two bogies."

"Roger. Send two to shadow each."

"Roger. Owl Light 5, 6 ,7 and 8, detach to intercept at 246 for 25, un ID."

"Roger, Owl Light lead. Itercepting at 246 for 25, un ID."

Suddenly the other plane passed by.

"Holy s--t! What was that?"

"Owl Light one, what is the problem?"

"Base, this is Owl Ligh one, we have just been passed by something emiting a loud sonic boom."

"Roger. Speed estimate?"

"Approximatly Mach 4. 110,000 feet AGL. Inbound headed 045."

"Prepare to intercept. Will track area."

"Roger base."

"Owl Light one, on full radar power a slight blip is visible in the area. Turn 045 for 15, bogie. Initiate scramjet."

"Roger. Initiating sramjet in turn at 045 for 15, bogie." The F-40s broke off, heading for the loud aircraft. Meanwhile, at the radar facility, the radar operator talks to his commander.

"Sir, if that blip wernt in the exact place they said it would be, we would never have found it. Are you sure it is not static?"

"Well, the planes reported a loud boom, and it is headed exactly as they said... we'll let them check it out. I dont know what it is."

ooc: F-40 specs:

Speed: Mach 5+
Altitude: 130,000 feet ASL+
Codename: "Microphone"
Armament: 6 Mach-6 AAMs
Size and other specs: Classified.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

ooc: Ive been developing these for years, but I only have 16... I do hae about 100 less capable ones, but they are not as fast...

ic: "Owl Light 1 to base! Owl Light 1 to base! Shadowed Bogie fired missile!"

"Roger. Clear to engage."

"Roger."

"Owl Light 1, Fox 2 (missile fired). Owl Light 2, Fox 2. Owl Light 3, Fox 2. Owl Light 4, Fox 2 (in short, 4 of them fired missiles at the bomber)"

"Base, this is Owl Light 5. Bogie approaching base."

"Roger, Owl Light 5,6, 7 and 8, clear to engage."

"Roger, Owl Light flight is engaged. Target IDed as Tomcat and Eagle."

"Roger clear to fire. Fire at bogies before they are in missile range. ECM in place."

At the base, 10 anti-missile Gatling guns open up at the sky, firing wildly. ECM machines try to divert the missiles and shut off thier warheads. Hypersonic SAMs track the cruise missles by their IR signiture, 16 of them launching at the missiles.

ooc: this is the most heavily defended site in Bonstock. Two whole Infantry Divisions guard it, not to mention so many SAMs and F-16s. And they can disable the missiles. And sattelites are jammed over the area, so you have no idea what it looks like.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Nozomi Station, Bonstock

Four of the missiles are knocked out of the sky, but one blasts right into the main barracks, killing 17 Bonstocknian soldiers and wounding 157 more. The other missiles blasts into a hangar, tearing apart two F-16s and claiming 4 more Bonstocknian lives, all service personnel. Fuel blows up, putting the place on fire. Fire squads are deployed to both areas, along with medical evacuators to take out the wounded. Hu Li hears the commotion and walks up out of the bunker, seeing the damage. She figures instantly who did this. Knowing no one could find this place with satellites, even less know its true purpose, she though it must be one of the Sniper Country agents. She and the guards stormed into the cell with the team leader, frisking him for any 'illegal' content and signallers. Other guards do the same to the other team members. They check the ambassador, but do not find anything.

Meanwhile, the F-40s see that the first wave has failed. Un willing to dive that far after the thing, they call over for reinforcements.

"Owl Light 5, this is Owl Light 1. Vector 060 for 35 bandit at 70,000. Engage target."

"Roger Owl Light one. Owl Light 5, 6, 7, and 8 are traking the target."

"Roger."

"Owl Light 5, missiles fired by Owl Light 6, 7, and 8."

"Roger. Waiting for assesment of damage. Arm second wave."

"Roger."

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Hu Li looked at the soldier who gave the insult, and swiftly kicked him in the face, knocking the man onto the floor. She said "If anyone says that to me again, they will get much more than a beating like that. Now show me everything in your pockets, or I will find them and it will be ugly."

Meanwhile, the F-40s turn around, look down, and fire more missiles at he fast moving plane, but to no avail, unknowing that it is already down. They give chase out to sea until feul gets low, and they abort to land back at base.

By now, the fires have been contained around Nozomi Station. The wounded are in the hospital, the dead being identified and placed into thier coffins. They will be shipped home to be buried with full military honors.

OOC:Watcher, you two. This is meant to be an RP, and it's not meant to disrupt politics between you two... Isn't an EMD the same as an EMP?

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Hu Li turned and said, "Dirty sl-t? All right, I have only one boyfriend, and your nation has him, and I want him back before I knock one of your heads off. So tell me where he is, and how to get him back, and you will be rewared. You will go home to your families. Assuming that your wives havnt divorced your sexist a--es."

Meanwhile Bonstocknian coastal partol boats draw ever closer, searching with high powered search lights and radar. They look for any sign of the plane and its crew.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Hu Li replied "And you accuse me of being cold and heartless. But then again, I actually have someone I love. And most people dont know it. So I ask you, why are you holding the former President of Bonstock? Why do you need him? What purpose is he serving? It will only get your nation shame from the international community when they hear you are holding an innocent man."

Meanwhile, the crew inspects the plane. They look around it, calling in for it to be towed. Then it detonates, nearly destroying the boat. Two of the sailors were severely wounded by the blast while outside of the boat's cockpit. The boat zoomed over to Port Yuko to treat the man while recovering anything inside the plane they could find. Meanwhile, other boats looked around the area for the pilot, thinking him to be a valuable source of information. The search ws sptepped up on word of the pilot not being in the plane. Dozens of boats and HMMWVs travelled around looking.

Hu Li wiped her face aff and said "I never realized you Sniper Country people could be so defiant and rude. It is a pity what I will have to do to you. Perhaps if I turn a high powered light on in here, you will tell me more later." Suddenly the light turned on, flodding the room. If anyone could sleep in this light, it would be a miracle. Hu Li turned and said "Good night, gentlemen." Then she and the guards closed the door.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Hu Li and the guards walked into the control room next to the cell. Computers hummed as radars were checked constantly. On the wall at the end of the room was a giant map of the world, next to a map of Bonstock. Hu Li walked over to the table of one of the Generals, and asked for a report on recent events. She grabbed the report, and read

"All intruding planes in Bonstock shot down by F-40s. However, no identification as to the country of orgin. We have identified them to be an F/A 18 Hornet and an F-16 Fighting Falcon. The other is as yet unidentified. Patrol boats found it, but the plane self destructed, wounding two of the boat's crew. No pilot was found. We assume that the other pilots died in the crash, and their remains were found in the wreckage. We have not found the pilot from the other plane, which looked sometihng like a B-4, perhaps from Dark Terror. No markings were found on it. Search is on for the pilot. It is unkown how they found or why they targeted Nozomi Station, but it appears that the munitions used were Air-to-Surface missiles pointing down, rather then bombs.

The Bonstocknian Navy reports a baby whale stranded somewhere of the coast. Greenpeace has been alerted, and they will find and help the whale. It may be an escapee from the Dark Terror and Belem whale hunt.

Also, sattelite imagery has given a map of Sniper Country. They are located in the Heartland, and they have a small coastline and a long river goind deep inland. On that river, which flows from the South-East, is thier capital. The coast is on the North-west. North east of the nation is a vast void area with no nation present. It is a mountainous area, very rugged. Could be used in a covert ops attempt, though it is known that Sniper Country excells at that type of warfare. Ironically, some BSS agens trained there once.

Hu Li knew exactly what they were talking about when thay said the BSS agents being trained there. Her father trained there back a long time ago, when Bonstock was very young. She remembered her father well. Then she remembered when he was a colonel in the Bonstocknian 1st Airborne Division, and how he was killed at the hands of the Kalaash militia. Her face turned bitter. She was there in Port Yuko that terrirble day. She was in the 1st Airborne, a mere private none the less. She was 18 years old. She remembered being holed up in the Bank of Bonstock building that night, crying softly to herself, knowing that on the next floor were rebel soldiers. Then she remembered the knock on the door, and the two shadows that helped her and 14 others save Bonstock that night.

The General looked up to her, and said, "Ms President, are you ok?"

"Yes, General, I'm fine."

As someone answered the call from the test facility, one of the radar crews started picking up a signal. "Sir we have an object moving fast towards Bonstock."

The general went over. The blip was moving fast. "Get some interceptors up there, and put SAMs on alert."

"Yes sir."

Gregory Winters and Frank Eriksson walked towards something they had heard in the bushes. Their two other team members were in the HMMWV they were driving. The two had their Machine Pistols at ready, pointing forward at where they heard the sound.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

ooc: You said something about Bonstocknian crews finding it...

At ATS-335, crews busily ran scans on the EMD on the ground in Bonstock. Nothing had changed, and that was a good thing. When that thing went off, it would be total chaos.

Then again, Im just now realizing that this is your crew. Sorry about that... :oops: *Edits post accordingly*

ic:

Frank instantly fell on the ground, hit by two shots. The HMMWV crew heard, and one got up into the turrent, spraying the area with machine gun rounds. Greg, scared to death, hit the dirt and started wildly firing Machine Pistol rounds at the enemy.

The bullets spit everywhere around the pilot. He instantly rolled behind a tree, and shot a clip of his pistol out from behind him. He reloaded his rifle, and darted out from the tree, firing at the HMMWV, not noticing the soldier down on the ground.

ooc: *poke poke* Are you SC?

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

The HMMWV was riddled with fire. The bullets knocked into it. The driver called fro reinforcements. Greg still was wildly firing at the figure in the distance, going around to see him behind the tree. Frank lay there, bleeding heavily. Four more HMMWVs screeched over, and 8 troops got out with a cover of fire from machine guns, reinforcing Greg. Frank was evacuated by one of the HMMWVs.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

The Bonstocknians continued to shoot at the figures, trigger happily. 2 men were down now. No one really knew what they were firing at; they just fired into the distance with thier Machine Pistols. The HMMWV crews provided covering machine gun fire. Someone called in for air support, but that would take 20 minutes for planes to get to the area. Of course, they wanted AH-64s, as many as possible, to help fire missiles into the forest. But for now, they could just fire off more and more rounds.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

The men hit the dirt instantly, still fireing wildly. One of the HMMWVs was disabled in the grenade attack, wounding the gunner, who continued to fire at the beach. A Patrol boat started going over to the area, about a kilometer out.

Air Defense Command, Bonstock

"General, we got another bogie."

"What resources are aveliable?

"Two F-16s, and some SAMs."

"Launch the planes."

"Yes sir."

Shipdham Air Force Base

The air raid sirens sounded loudly on the base. Two men dashed to their planes, and took off in 2 minutes.

"Frogfoot, vector 210 for 25 bandit, high."

"Roger, vectoring."

Meanwhile, in Bonstocknian cities, more air raid sirens went off. Citizens poured into Bonstock's subway systems, where they were given survival rations: blankets, food, and toiletries, stockpiled after the Dark Terror Bombing. SAM crews dashed over to thier sites, looking for the planes.

In the combat zone, the grenade blew up a HMMWV, seroiuly wounding two of the occupants. Others called for more support. The gunboat arrived within range of the beach, and fired 30mm chain guns at the beach, as well as rifle shots.

Far away, in Sniper Country, Evremonde just had recieved news of the string of bombings. He yelled to his captor "You! What do you want with Bonstock? Why are you doing this? Why imprison an old man so he can watch his coultry suffer at his captor's hands?"

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

"What can I do stuck here?" roared Evremonde "I know millions died, but that was not her fault, it was Dark Terror's targeting of crowded housing developments. It was a criminal warrior. But I am amazed how quickly she rebuild. Look for yourself! Port Yuko is now a huge construction project, and under her guidence it will be better than ever. And she has made sure that Bonstock has a new Air Defense network capable of shooting down most anything. Why do you dare question her? Moreover, she didn't really seduce me... I seduced her! I hired her to positions because of her talent and political skill! Look at how she repaired relations with Automagfreek. That was marvelous! I knew she was talented from the day I met her. I first saw her in the caverns of the old Bank of Bonstock building, fighting for Bonstock's freedom. She put her life on the line so that others might live. She helped us destroy the rebel leadership that night. And she is not a dictator. Bonstock has enjoyed way more freedom under her then it did under me. I ruled like a father knowing what was best for his children, wheras Hu Li runs an inoffensive, centrist administration in conjunction with Parliament. I never cooperated with Parliament. Really, I do not understand what it is you have with her."

Meanwhile, the F-16s started soring up after the F-15, chasing it. They did the Immelman, and got into missile lock, each firing a missile at the target. They then dove a bit as the missiles stramed towards the target.

On the ground, 3 soldiers were killed in the blasts. Two HMMWVs were utterly destroyed. Vegitation was torn up, revealing a clearing in the night. The firefight continued as two 5 ton trucks came in. They each dropped twelve troops into the fraw, and evacuated the many wounded. There were to many wounded to fit abord the trucks, so more HMMWVs were called in to get them. The firefight continued.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

[Nah, just that those bombs had run out of targets... I only had 4 HMMWVs there, remember? All are knocked out now.]

The planes saw the plane dive, and dove down with it, firing off more missiles over the ocean. Meanwhile, the fresh 24 troops lead a charge over to the beach. Two of them were killed in this attempt, and 5 were wounded as they ran across the newly bombed earth.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

One of the F-16s was hit by the enemy gunfire. As he watched the enemy F-15 burst into flame, he radioed "Im hit! Im hit! Losing fuel!" He tryed to fly around. The other F-16 guarded him. Then, he radioed "My ship's running low on feul. Gotta bail out!" He pulled the ejection cord, and flew out. His parachute opened. The other F-16 hovered overhead as a rescue helicopter came to pick him up.

----

The soldiers charging took 7 more wounded, and 1 more dead. A few men had multiple wounds, mostly the result of the assault man. They found the 7 dead of the enemy. They fired out at the sub, along with the gunboat, but were unable to sink it. The wounded were soon medevaced by UH-60s, taken to be treated. The Bonstocknian dead were removed to be buried. The incident waas made known to the public, along with Evremonde's capture by Sniper Country and the bombing of Nozomi Station Air Base that night. The press was inflamed, saying that Sniper Country was invading Bonstock, and calling for sanctions. It was made public that the ambassador was taken, along with many members of the enemy's Special Forces.

----

That morning, Hu Li read the Bonstock Daily. She saw the headline "Snipers take aim at Bonstock." She then asked an advisor "Sniper Country has sent so many of their sone over here to die. I wonder how the news will affect them... Send a transmission to them. Say 'If you give us back Former President Evremonde, we will give you back the ambassador, all the Special Operations teams we captured, and the bodies of your dead pilots and soldiers.'"

The names of the dead Sniper Country pilots and soldiers were in the paper, along with the name of the ambassador and the captured Special Ops teams. Bonstocknian Sattelite Television (BSTV) and Boncast TV both broadcasted the story to the international community. Soon the world would know of the debacle.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

ooc: Playin it cool, eh?

ic: Various cable news organizations broadcasted the Sniper Country Senete Speaker's reaction. Then footage of the burned out Evremonde chateau was broadcast. Shown on the screen were the caskets of two dead BSS guards and the butler, being taken out for burial. Blood was stained on the walls, and the place was ripped open. Then Bonstocknian President Hu Li appeared in Port Yuko for a press confrence. The burned and bombed housing developments were now being rebuild, this time with strict fire codes. Most of the rest of the city was also being constructed, but many of the suburbs had already had new houses, thanks to prefabricated military surplus houses. However, most of the suburbs remained intact. The housing developments, which once housed 7 million working class Bonstocknians, mostly recent immigrants, were the ones that took teh most damage, especially being adjecent to the port facilities. Hu Li started the adress:

"Fellow Bonstocknians, our nation has been attacked by a foreign power. Last week, our beloved former President Charles Ste. Evremonde was kidnapped by foreign terrorsists. We believe taht the terrorist's orgin is Sniper Country, and we have found a few clues taht the terrorist kidnappers were paid by the Sniper Country Government. Assuming this, the BSS arrested the ambassador from Sniper Country, and took him to an undisclosed location. This location was subsequently attacked by invading airplanes which are known to be from Sniper Country. Now we are starting to believe that this is teh responsibility of corrupt bureacrats in the Sniper Country government. We are gooing to thus release the ambassador, and ask that in return, Sniper COuntry grant us the right to send agents to their naiton to investigate this kidnapping. We hope that this will stop what could result in military conflict..."

Nozomi Station, Bonstock

The light still blared in the room. The men could hardly get any sleep. Then 5 guards opened the door. One said "everyone out! Now!" The captives complied. One of the guards went down the hallway, doing the same to the team leader, who was in another cell. They were blindfolded and taken aboard a small Gulfstream jet, and took a short hop to the small military terminal at Port Yuko International Airport. Then they were taken aboard a C-130 transport, finally headed for home. The men finally were able to get some sleep after being in the light for so long.

Meanwhile, in Port Yuko, a BSS task force was assembling, to be sent on another transport to Sniper Country to aid in the investigation to find Evremonde. They would go to the airport in secrecy and fly aboard a Bonstocknian cargo plane. The cargo pilots and a few MPs would be the only military personnel accompanying them.

ooc: lol, you still use Shermans?

ic:

An AeroBonstock Airlines 767 took off from Port Yuko International Airport. Onboard were some 274 passangers, most civilians flying home, going on vacation, flying on business, and simply expanding thier horizons. It was one of dozens of commercial flights to the Heartland from National Hockey League. But on board were four men, posing as businessmen, in dark suits. However, they had smuggled aboard advanced tracking devices, weapons, and gear for locating underground bunkers in built up areas.

Meanwhile, a Bonstocknian C-17 aircraft carried 16 known BSS agents and their cargo. It was to land somewhere in Sniper Country, as an arranged flight. But BSS high command knew that this was a mere diversion... this would trick the authorities into believing that they could hold off the BSS, but they would not even see the businessmen, who would blend in like anyother Bonstocknian businessmen abroad. They even worked for the Bank of Bonstock, and used a dayjob to look for investments for the Bank. They carried along with them 4 "razor-guns," guns that could turn into shaving razors to move stealthily. They also had help from an unlikealy source... The Bonstocknian Triads. Though a deadly international smuggling band, they had the experience, knowhow, and ability to smuggle in things for the businessmen. Machine pistols, tracking devices, bunker detectors, and maps were being smuggled, for a price, of course. Using regular commmercial shipping, they would go in undeticted, using the Triad's special knowlege. It was codenamed "Operation Starry Night."

ooc: Im not going to be on as often... I have school now, which complicates things. Moreover, I moved to a different time zone.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

ooc: Um, a C-17 just carried 16 overt agents as a diversion.

ic: The four men took their rental cars to the hotel. The went in, checked in at the hotel. They saw many IMB-BOU agents walking around. They saw also a delivery lady with a package standing around. She wore dark glasses and a plain, black dress, and had black hair. One of the men went over to the delivery lady, and said "Hello." Then he said "Vous avez le box?" The lady reponded "Oui, Monsieur," and handed off the small package. Meanwhile the other men had gone up to their hotel rooms. The man oicked up the package, shoved it among some other packages in his briefcase, and handed some money to the delivery lady. The security guards were looking away, not seeing, looking instead at some other guy.

The man walked over to the elevator, and went up. He was dressed in plain business clothes. He said hello to a few security guards, and they greeted him back. Thinking him to be friendly, they did nothing.

The man went up to his hotel room, where his comrades had taken out their laptop computers, and working on what appeared to be conventional business. He put the package onto the table, and another one opened it. Out came a couple of pens. They looked like normal fountain pens, but the men knew they served a far greater purpose. Also were "cellphones," computer disks, and 4 shaving razors. But these were no conventional items.

One of the men took one of the disks, putting it in his laptop. It had a password generator, which would help him hack into secure websites in stealth. Probing the server, it would find the password without alerting security by doing it multiple times. It was a hacker's dream. Then he found his target: IMF/BOU secret files. Making sure his computer was recorded as being that of a known member, he began getting in.

"Darn! Blocked..."

"Well, there is another option... we'll send in the robotic flies into IMF-BOU headquarters... but first we need to find it, so we'll send in into the Senate, find an IMF-BOU agent, and follow him with our little fly. A high ranking one is sure to be in the Senate, giving a Senete testimony or something." He turned to another agent, and said "Is the fly's battery charged?"

"Yes, sir, its ready for 3 months."

"Perfect. Take it to the Senete building, and we'll control it to enter. But dont destroy this one, because it is the only one we have, and its very expensive."

"Yes, sir." The agent took out a small box. Inside was an object that looked like a fly, perfectly in size. It was able to fly with its wings, and had nano engineered sensors. Even so, the stunning technology sent back audio and a sputtery, black and white video, but if it could go in undetected, this was a small price to pay. It had a small transmitter in the back, which turned the sound and video into a signal, which went back to the agents. They could only hope it was not met by a flyswatter.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

(ooc: You said the IMF-BOU has an HQ, where Evremonde is held. That is what they're looking for. And I assume that these were the diversion agents... the others are "businessmen" with identities and planetickets and the ability to destroy their work, if you can find them, or know in ic that they exist)

The 16 agents sat on the ground. Knowing they couldn't move, they decided that resistance was pointless. They knew then taht they were bait for something, and could clearly see that they might be taken near the former President, where they could use their little transmitters to report their location. The doors opened, and they were taken into the room.

Meanwhile, the other agents in the hotels continued. The one agent went near the Senete building, and released the little "fly." It sputtered, hovered, and buzzed about, under the control of the other agents. The one left the area, going to the hotel. There, the three others manuvered the fly into the building.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

A cockey young agent stood up, to answer the question. "We dunno wut the h--- hacked into your system, but it wasnt us guys. Why would we hack into the site of some goons like you?" The rest of them laughed at the remark.

"By the way," continued the agent, "You say we gonna be here a long time? I dun think so. This aint no Hilton, so we aint stayin."

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Huddled up in a corner, one of the agents pressed on his wrist watch. He talked into it, telling of the killed agent, and giving pictures of the dead body throught the camera. A guard came up and said "What is this?"


The agent responded "My wrist watch."

The guard promplty took it, but the message was sent. BSS knew, and had pictures to prove it.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

"I dont think thousands of more people are going to die, but it sure seems like a bunch of you are gonna get fired when the Senete sees the footage I shot. So, ya got steak? What about Root Beer? And come on, you've gotta have some vodka or whisky or something. Tell ya what, you get us some alcohol, and we'll treat you guards to the time of you lives."

BSS Headquarters

"Sir, we have the footage, and we have located the prisoners."

"All right then... make the killing public, and send an ultimatum to Snipar Country: Give us back all Bonstocknian prisoners you hold, or Bonstock will free them ourselves."

"Yes Ms President."

Senete building

The little fly buzzed around, finally resting on the roof. It aimed its cameras at the podium, waiting for a high ranking IMF-BOU agent.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

[Wait a minute. You got some footage, yeah, but I would like to know how you get the location of ATS-335. Footage won't simply give you a location. Please explain how this happened. And all IMF/BOU agents are gone from the Senate building.]
[ooc: the watch had a GPS locator in it... and the fly is waiting for a high ranking IMF/BOU agent to testify when the footage is released. Sorry for the confusion]

The little fly on the roof saw the official speak. Buzzing down, its controllers flew it near Philips, and followed him out of the building.

Bonstocknian High Command

On the radar screen was spotted a small number of ships. A single Type 21 Coastal Patrol Boat was sent to investigate, looking for what it was.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

The fly waited on the cieling, tihnking Philips to be going to the headquarters soon.

Meanwhile, the boat fired off four rounds of 40mm shots, before taking a hit in the stern. It radioed for reinforcements.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

The Bonstocknian ship starts to leave, but meanwhile, 16 Bonstocknian aircraft fly out to unleash missiles at the enemy ships. They are intercepted, and two are shot down in the quick raid. Meanwhile, a crewmember on the ship gets all of the battle on tape. This will soon be in the hands of the Bonstocknian government, who will broadcast everything.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Bonstocknian forces decided to give an ultimatum to the ships: Stat ethe reason for your attack on our ships, or face destruction. Meanwhile, a strike force of 180 JAS 39 Gripens was prepared for a crushing stike on the ships, should negotiations break down.

Meanwhile, the little "fly" overheard the dispatch of more forces. The BSS agents relayed it to High Command, who began preparations to keep the ships from coming.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

"We are sorry for entering this radius, but ask what you are doing. Is this a training exercise? Any hostile gesture will be taken harshly."

Meanwhile, the JAS 39 Gripens are feuled, readied for combat. But they are not launched. 60 other Gripens take off, merely patroling the airspace. Bonstocknian ships are seen off the coast, merely patrolling. The army is on alert, ready to dispatch troops incase of trouble.

"Where can I talk to General Spitz? I would like him to tell us the details of this"

Manwhile...

Bonstocknian High Command

"General, BSS says that Sniper COuntry is sending more ships."

"D--n, what are they up to? Tell the BSS to figure out!"

"The only agents there are undercover agents on a classified mission."

"What classified mission?"

"We are not authorized to know this."

"Well, what about the BSS agents still in captivity?"

"I'm not sure, sir. The undercovers might be trying to free them."

"Well, get in on this, and tell them they have our support if they can figure out why the h--l Sniper Country is sending out so many ships!"

Meanwhile, in Sniper Country

"Transmission from High Command."

"What do they want?"

They want us to figure out why the Sniper Country government is sending so many ships near our coast. They say they suspect something."

"But our mission is not that."

"True, our mission is something else. Also, I think our 'fly' got the wrong guy. He's a military official, I think. Valuable intelligence, but not for our mission."

"All we need to know is where Evremonde is. Thats the only think holding us back."

"Yes. The Triads still have all of our equipment, which they are going to give us. Dunno where they keep it, though."

"Lets hope it's not crack infested."

"Yes, sir."

"So, we need to know where Evremonde is being held. Get into satellite reconnaisence, ask them to look. Tell tehm to find every facility that might house prisoners, but filter out ones aknowleged by the government. More over, I have a better way to figure out where this place is. We will Get some e-mails, send a virus inside one of them. It will, if functioning correctly, show the location of the computer it gets to. We need to find a suitable e mail adress, though. Tell McDonald to work on it."

"Yes sir. He should have it ready soon."

The satellites scanned the whole of Sniper Country for prisons, documenting every prison, looking for ones that were not supposed to be there, especially ones with vast security.

Meanwhile, the JAS 39 Gripens were put on maximum alert. Pilots were strained by the constant readyness. They were told to wait.

At High Command, the Joint Chiefs of Staff convened, looking for a solution to the problem...

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

In his French accent, the Marquis spoke, "Erm, monsiuer, do you not believe this is quite unnecisarry to be holding to my head your small pistol. Why is this? But how would you remove the popularly elected President of Bonstock? You cant. The people of le Republique Bonstocknian made her President, without my interference. I admit I have somewhat dirty encounters with Hu Li, but I love the woman. Just because we both rule over Bonstock does not mean we do not love each other. Now why do you want to know about our secret bases? What should I tell you? And also, I know of no BSS agents here in your nation of Sniper Country. No come, Monsieur Howe, and let us talk this over over some fine Bonstocknian wine. This should not be solved with bloodshed."

Suddenly, a cell phone rang in David Howe's pocket...

ooc: Please dont kill off Evremonde... I kinda want to use him later.

The telephoners say, "Hello, we are conducting a survey of random numbers. We would like to ask you the following questions: One: Whatr is your job? Two: Are you satisfied with your job? Three..."

"Um, I'm busy at the moment. Please call me back later."

Evremonde butted in, saying "Who is that, monsieur?"

"None of your business" was Howe's reply. He then hung up the phone.

Meanwhile, at the telephone booth, two men stood. They disconnected their voice modifiers, and looked at their machine that pinpointed the locations of cell phones. "We got it," one of them said.

"Hey, who was that background voice? It sounded very French..."

The two stared at each other for a second. "Could it be?"

"Lets check."

They raced to the hotel, and prepared voice identification.

The Bearcats flew back to the fleet, and the Gripens continued to fly. Meanwhile, at High Command, officers debated what to do. SOme were for destroying the SC fleet, others for deterance. But everyone knew the decision would affect world events, and Bonstock.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

A Visby corvette came out to inspect the thing dropped from the C-130, mostly to make sure it was not a MOAB. They were shocked to find inside the MArquis Ste Evremonde. He was quickly airlifted by helicopter to a hospital in Port Yuko, where he was welcomed back by his Presidential sucessor, Hu Li (ooc: no one really knows about the affair... even though some leaks were reported). Meanwhile, over the ocean, the Gripens fired back some missiles, and dove to the ground to evade enemy fire.

"Green 1 to base, we're under attack!"

"Roger. Engage in evasive action."

"Green leader this is Green 3. Taking heavy damage."

"Copy. Dive to below 100m AGL."

"Green 2, missile launched."

"Roger copy."

"Green 3 to Green leader, cant control aircraft. She's breaking up!"

"Hold on until arrival at base."

"Losing fuel fast. Gotta bail out."

"Roger, base, send in a rescue chopper."

"Copy Green leader. Dustoff on the way."

"Green flight. Leaving combat zone."

"Green 2, reporting heavy damage to wings."

"Roger."

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

The Gripens flew back to their base. Meanwhile, the others stood by, waiting. High Command called for a "stand off" approach... as long as the ships were not in Bonstocknian territorial waters, they would not be attacked. But as a show of force, Visby corvettes would shadow them just outside the "Radius of Protection."

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

"Sir, I am certain that we sent the IMF/BOU agents back with your ambassador. I'll check with our Air Mobility Command and see that we did that. I'm sure this is a misunderstanding. But anyway, I do know that your nation still holds 15 Bonstocknian agents. We would like to send a transport aircraft to take them home. We also would like to take the body of the agent you killed home. I thank you for you professional understanding, and hope that this does not leave a mark on relations between our two nations. We will make sure that none of this gets out."

She then hung up, and telephoned the Air Mobility Command, who said that they did indeed send home the IMF/BOU agents, but that they had taken a commercial flight and were most likely taking some time off. [ooc: I did send them back]. Then she telephoned High Command, and told the Bonstocknian Luftwaffe to take the JAS 39 Gripens off alert. Bonstocknian coastal missile batteries were also taken off alert, and threat levels were reduced. Hu Li then retired for the night to the company of her longtime coworker, advisor, and lover.
