OOC: This is an RP between me and another buddy, we may open it up later on, depending on how it goes....


*on a plane Headed from Edenstein to Mirabar, Lt. Gen. Onotov is siting in the passanger compartment looking at some documents and conversing with a Lt. about the GESFL*

Onotov: Well I just hope our spiders stay in contention....
Lt: they should... Now General, when we land, there will be a small contingent of Marines waiting on the tarmac to escort us to a helicopter which will then take us to the embassy,
Onotov: Excellent, i think its good that we are starting formal talks with some of the younger nations.
Lt. Yes it is, hopefully they will becomce our puppets....

*they both laugh as the plane lines up for landing, it fidgets a little due to some low level air currents but they make it down safely at San d'Oria International Airport. The plane taxi's across the runway and finaly comes to a stop near the Edenstein marines, there are 6 waiting for them, 4 on the tarmac and two in a humvee parked off to the side, one of the marines is manning the .50 machine gun on top. The two get out of the plane and are salutted by the waiting marines, Onotov and the Lt are escorted to the Humvee and sit in the back, the other marines get in and sit in various seats in the vehicle, one of the marines looks at the one driving and they start driving towards a helicopter that is parked next to one of the hangers with the rotar turning. They drive up to the side and let the Onotov out first, he gets out with two of the marines and walks over towards the helicopter. As they are walking, the one marine pulls out a handkerchief with Cloroform on and puts it over onotov's mouth, he falls limp and the soldiers catch him, the LT sees this and pulls out his sidearm but one of the marines inside shoots him with a silenced pistol. The rest of the marines get out of the humvee and help load the general onto the helicopter. It takes off and they head towards the mountains..*
Back to top

***Somewhere deep within the caves of the Nether Mountains***
[Onotov regains conciousnes slowly and is a bit disoriented]
Onotov: Where am I? What the hell is going on?
[A figure steps from the dark shadows, seeming to almost meld with them, wearing a wide brimmed hat with a large feather in it]
Man: You know, you really should gather more information on who you have to greet you.
Onotov: What are you talking about, who are you?
Man: Come on now, do you not even remember any of your briefings before you left?
[Onotov sits there for a few moments trying to piece things together]
Onotov: Jarlaxle, you tricky little bastard!
[Jarlaxle bows low, with his hat in one hand, lightly brushing it on the floor]
Onotov: What happened to my LT?
Jarlaxle: We killed him of course.
[Onotov looks at him dissaprovingly]
Jarlaxle[shrugs]: He was expendable.
Onotov: You must be more careful, you realize that don’t you?
Jarlaxle: Everything has a purpose, besides, you cannot blame me. The man drew his firearm.
[Onotov slumps, defeated by the logic]
Jarlaxle: With that I give you my leave.
[Jarlaxle leaves a grumbling Onotov as the door is locked with two guards posted]
Jarlaxle[signals in an intricate silent hand code]: Make sure he does not leave.
[Guards nod their heads]

***The next morning in the San d’Oria Capitol Building***
Elastull: Increase the defensive positions around our capitol, I don’t want any Edenstein spies slipping through our nets.
General: Yes sir, I shall double the security immediately.
[Salutes and then leaves]
Elastull[shuffling papers around on his desk muttering under his breath]: Damn Jarlaxle, where the hell could he be? I need to know how the operation went last night.
Jarlaxle[stepping from the shadows between the book cases in the corner of the office]: Perfectly [Elastull jumps, startled] the abduction went just as planned.
Elastull: How did you get into my office without anyone seeing you?
Jarlaxle[waves his hand, dismissing the point]: It matters not, but what does matter is what are we to do with our new ‘guest’?
Elastull[evil grin appears on his face]: Show him some of our more ‘comfortable’ accommodations, then pump him of information.
Jarlaxle: That has already been taken care of, we extracted information on Stalag 17. It seems this installation has some vital top secret research that could help improve the yield of their explosives.
Elastull[eyes going wide with anticipation]: Destroy the research, I know you know how to take care of that.
Jarlaxle: Yes sir, I shall inform the group and start plans immediately. [Bows and leaves the room]

*The Edenstein Consulate in San d'Oria, Col. O'neil is waiting for the arrival of the Gen, he is 8 hours overdue, a random Pvt. runs into the room and salutes*

Pvt: Sir! We just recieved word from HQ that the general was dropped off almost 9 hours ago at the air port, and six of our marines where there to pick him up....

Col: Looks like we have a problem here, bolt up the consulate,

Pvt: Yes sir!

*The pvt runs off to inform the rest of the base the orders, a few moments later the security measures take place, and small blast covers come over the windows of the consulate and marines on the outside take up there posistions around the walls and on the sentry turrets*

Col: What in the hell happened to that General?? *he walks into C&C and starts making some calls*

Yes Sir,
*
No Sir, he never made it,
*
Well of course I sent out some marines to pick him up
*
They passed the background check..
*
Sir
*
Let me
*
Yes sir,
*he hangs up the phone and walks over to the duty officer*

Post extra guards tonight, don't want anything happening,

DO: Yes sir...

***60 hours later, in the mountains 3 km NE of Stalag 17***
Commander: Alright, we have 3 hours to get this done. Fireteam Alpha will take care of the diversion and team Bravo will infiltrate. Remember, there are to be no casualties [other 7 nod in agreement]
**1 hour later**
***5 min. south of front gates Fireteam Alpha has rigged an explosive to distract the guards, along with 10 assault rifles placed on tripods with remote firing mechanisms and clips of blank ammunition.***
Soldier: Explosives set, and ready to go.
Soldier: Decoys set are ready to go too, the other team should be in position soon.
***Inside the minefield surrounding the base***
Sniper: I have two guards in the tower, just like Onotov said.
Commander: Good, both of you take them out when you have a clear shot.
Both Snipers: Yessir.[Both fire, scoring direct hits to the necks]
Commander: Those darts should keep them sleeping for 20 min..
[Just then an explosion rocks the land as a large fireball erupts from somewhere south of the main gates]
Commander: That is our cue move in.
[Snipers hide their weapons in the snow and pull out their fence cutters as the team moves for the fence]
***Inside the base***
Edenstein soldier: What the hell was that?
Soldier2: An explosion numb nuts.
[First soldier slaps the second on the back of the head]
Soldier1: No shit.
Edenstein Commander[barking out commands]: Troops fall in, we need to organize a scouting party to find out what the hell that was.[12 troops take up the job and head out, one on point and the others flanking behind in a wedge shape]
***As the scouts approach the area of the blast, gunfire opens up on them from the south***
Edenstein soldier: Radio in for back up, tell them to send at least another 10 guys.
[Soldier radios in and backup is sent out]
***North eastern corner of the base***
Commander: Good, the forces are leaving, cut the fence and lets get moving.
[The snipers, now turned engineers, cut holes in the fence for the team to enter]
[Two guards are spotted patrolling around the target building and are shot with the same darts as the tower guards]
Commander[in silent hand code]: Hide the troops, take their uniforms and weapons, and patrol in their place, we cannot be too suspicious.
[All 4 enter the building with the two guards in tow, the snipers don the uniforms and head out on patrol]
Demolitions Expert[silent hand code]: Lets get this thing over with.
[Commander and Demo. Expert take 8 min. to rig the building up with explosives, as one of the snipers walks through the door]
Commander[silent hand code]: What are you doing in here?
[Sniper pulls out a silenced pistol and shoot the two soldiers leaving them lying there with the two guards]
***10 min. later south of main gate backup arrives, and they push forward***
Soldier: Hold up a sec, (checks the area) we have been fighting for 10 minutes and not one person has been hit. It was all a set up.
[Just then four rapid explosions rock the base as a training building is demolished]
Soldier: Back to base![All Edenstein soldiers high tail it back to base]
***The next morning at the base, crews search the flaming rubble***
Crewmember: Sir! We’ve found 4 men, two of ours and two that I can’t recognize!
Commander[walks up]: Lets see what we’ve got hear shall we.[Stoops over to look at the bodies, and gasps in surprise]
Crewmember: What is it sir?
Commander: These troops are wearing ED uniforms, we must notify the capitol at once!

IC: *The Leti News symble flashes on the screen and the theme music starts up, but a second later, the Edenstein News seal flashes and shows Ms. Schuster sitting at the news desk*

Schuster: This is Stephani Schuster reporting for Edenstein news, we take you live to a press conference already in session with Admiral Ulonov

*The screen flashes to Ulonov who is still answering questions about The Emperor and his condition*

Ulonov: Well I don't know what his relative Colon temprature is to the rest of his body..... *recieves note from underling*

Ohhh yeah, almost forgot to talk about that,

Last night in the Northeast section of Edenstein one of our training bases was attacked by a group of special ops forces, one building was blown up and two Edenstein soldiers where killed. We estimate that there where anywhere from 10 - 15 operatives...

*Reporter standing up and butting in*

Reporter 1: Jan Blather LETI News *interupted by another reporter standing behind him as she does what appears to be the Vulcan Neck pinch*

Reporter 2: This is Farbra Walters for Edenstein News Channel 2, Do you know where these operatives came from?

Ulonov: Well, our soldiers manage to kill two of them, and we found documentation, passes, ID patches, and Dog Tags on them. Apparently these..... lets call them, Terrorists, came from Eastern Detroit. Now we don't have a motive yet as to why they were sent on this mission, there was nothing of strategic importance at this base, but none the less... We must take a firm stand against these threats to our homeland and way of life....

*pauses to put on his reading glasses*

Edenstein will be conducting a full investigation into these "Terrorist Acts" also we will be demanding a full apology and explanation from Eastern Detroit, and also, their COMPLETE Co-operation in "Smoking Out" These terroists by Eastern Detroit. Until this matter is resolved, Edenstein is closing our borders, no one will be allowed out, and no one will be allowed in, Furthermore, we are placing an embargo on all Eastern Detroit products and urge the rest of the Region to do the same.....

*Hold up a picture of the two Edenstein soldiers, laying dead in the snow, their faces are blotted out but their wounds are painfully obviuse*

LETI this is what your Oil Dollars are going to, the brutal killing of your sons and daughters, That is all I have time for some questions.

Walters: Admiral, how would the emperor handle this situation if he was not a vegetable?

Ulonov: Well Ms. Walters, I'm running the country at the moment, so I don't think that is a valid question,

Reporter 1: Jan Blather, LETI NEws, Who are these "Operatives"

Ulonov: I answered that Mr Blather, Next,

Shadowy Figure in the back of the room: What are the merits of Reports that General Sianoodle is at Torvalds Memorial Hospital keeping watch over the Emperor...

Ulonov: Ummm... Next question.....

***Elastull’s office**
Elastull[fuming]: What! Not an important base! [Throws things from the desk hitting the wall, but missing Jarlaxle who is standing infront of him] I htought you said it was an important research base!
Jarlaxle[calmly]: Apparently we were mislead, even Bregan D’aerthe can make mistakes. Besides, the plan to implicate Eastern Detroit worked perfectly. Now all his forces will be paying more attention to a far off enemy than the one who is sitting right next door.
Elastull[calming some]: I would kill you where you stand, but you are too important to lose.
Jarlaxle: Just remember, we still have Onotov at our base. He will prove a valuable asset if anyone finds out what happened to him.
Elastull: You are correct, as always, but I have a feeling that you are not telling me the truth.
Jarlaxle: If I were to tell you the whole truth, it would take a century to divulge all the information I have learned from him.[And with that said Jarlaxle leaves the office with a once again fuming Elastull throwing books and pens, hitting the secretary and knocking her out]

*Tag*

***Somewhere deep within the caves of the Nether Mountains***
Onotov: I thought we agreed there’d be no casualties?
Jarlaxle[with his feet up on his desk, his boots letting out a loud crack as they hit the stone floor]: Plans change, as do the people who are in power. Just remember that not every soldier of mine is expendable, they may all be males, yes, but that is no reason to throw away good troops.
Onotov[a bit unrattled by this sudden revelation and noticing that Jarlaxle’s eye patch is on his left eye today make him wonder the implications]: I meant no offence to your band, but we must act if we are to complete this conquest.
Jarlaxle: The sands of power are shifting, we need only wait and see where they go from here.[Waves to the guards to take Onotov back to his room]
Jarlaxle[thinking]: These little squabbles must end soon, and I fear I let much slip in my bluff. This situation must come to an end, on both sides.

***Somewhere deep within the caves of the Nether Mountains***
Lt.: Sir, we seem to be relatively unscathed by the recent nuking that is going on in the area.
Jarlaxle: That is good news, but this recent event puts our plans back a step.(motions to a runner) Send word to the troops, our current mission is set back in light of recent events.
[Runner nods and hurries off to relay the message]
Lt. Cmdr.: What do you plan on doing now that we have the added threat of CoC nukes?
Jarlaxle: What it is we always do, go with the winner.
Lt.: Ever the pragmatist.
Jarlaxle: You best not forget how my pragmatism has saved the lives of this company. Besides, who said we ever had to help those we are working for. We have a better lot here than anywhere, and if we lose it, we lose our greatest oportunity. Prepare to contact the CoC rebels, we shall see how things pan out.
