<Two Days Ago>
<Battlehawk Air Force Station Valley>
Three masked men crept across the asphalt of the Battlehawk Air force Base, the darkness surrounded them except for the lights coming from some of the buildings. They were the best, the Elite. They had crept past or neutralized the many guards that protected the Maximum security facility. The men stacked up against a building wall as a guard approached from around the corner. The leader got his weapon levelled and fired at the approaching guard. The Silenced shots killed the guard and his body was hidden in the Shadows. The men had reached the hanger. Once inside they killed all the technicians and guards and put their bodies out of the way. They quickly located the container they we're looking for. Inside were a dozen hold-all style bags, un-marked and completely black. The Men smiled and picked up two each and slung them over their shoulders.
The Men crept out of the hanger and began to make their way back across the base. Through the slightly open zip of one bags was the unmistakable nuclear weapons symbol...

<Present Day>

"Ok people, here’s the situation" Agent In Charge Tony Bailey said "Two days ago a small team of hostiles infiltrated BAF Valley. Following a through search it was discovered that over two dozen soldiers were dead and six NB-666 Tactical Nuclear bombs, suitcase bombs for lack of a better name, were missing
"The silence that filled the room was broken only by the sharp whistle of one the agents."Thank you agent Flood" Tony commented "Yesterday President Clark received this message"
President Clark, we have six nuclear weapons, and we are prepared to use them on your country unless you meet our demands which will be presented to you shortly
"So far no demands have been given but we need to find those weapons, we have no idea what the targets are but needless to say if any of those bombs go off, the casualty's will be horrendous, lets get to work" Tony said

Bump

Ernesto Cheark in his red robs walked to his chair in the Kremlingrad, he had just got back from a speach and was eager to hear from his KGB agents around the world, he sat down and checked his E-mail and saw the report from The Republic of The Battlehawk and frowned, and got worried, and he sent a message.

To:President Clark
From: Ernesto Cheark, Soviet Elect of The Soviet System

I have gained word of your recent troubles, can I help you at all

TO: Ernesto Cheark,
From: President Clark

Any assistance is appreciated perhaps a small anti-terror team to work alongside my Counter Terrorist Unit?"

To:President Clark
From: Ernesto Cheark

Right away, I am sending our best to you right now, if you need anything else, to hesitate to ask
-------------------------

about 18 men boarded the 757 sitting in Moscowgrad Airport and it took of, the leader of the men, Vlad Vihcov was nervous having to leave the Soviet System, fearing the involvement of his government knew this was what had to happen, he decided to contact the head of Battlehawk's Counter Terrorism Unit, he dialed the number for the Government Building of Battlehawk and asked for a way to contact the Counter Terrorism Unit HQ

"This is Agent in Charge Tony Bailey, CTU" Tony said answering a phone that had been transferred from the Goverment switchboard

"This is Commandant Vlad Vihcov, head of Anti-Terrorism in the Soviet System, can you brief me"

"Well commander the situation is this, two days ago, six tactical nuclear devices were stolen from BAF Valley, the people behind this have threatened to use them against targets in the Battlehawk unless their demands are met" Tony sadi

"Any idea who they are, where they are or anything, also if I may ask what did they want"

"They've not given their demands yet, the accepted reason is that they want us to sweat abit" Tony commented "So far we've got nothing, we're tracing chatter and chasing every lead we get"

"Ok, then Sir, me and my men are at your use, as soon as we land I will be looking forward to meeting you, good day.." Vlad hung up, rested his head back and fell asleep on this long flight

Tony put the phone down and stood up and walked out his office and into the bull pen
"Okay, anything?" Tony asked
"We've had a few tip offs, one's quite promising, we've send a team to check it out"

if their is anything we can do to help re-acquire the devices and punish the thief's, then we will do it.

Any help you can offer would be appreciated

To: President Clark
from: the presidential palace of tubaui

we have already got a platoon of our special forces, 1st recon reg.,
on standby and ready to drop into your Battlehawk Air force Base through HALO.

we are also able to deploy our entire 12th air assault brigade,
1200 men and 200 helicopters though we pray we needn't use them,
they are only there if all our fears becomes a reality.

lietenant johnson looked out the back of the C-130, the roar of the turboprop engines blocking out nearly all other sound.
"E.T.A. two minutes!" the flight engineer bawled to the platoon, jerking johnson out of his trance.
he turned his head to the flight engineer.
"you dropping with us son?" johnson asked the young flight engineer, only sixteen or seventeen, probably his first mission.
"no sir, this missions high priority, it needs experienced soldiers!" the engineer bawled over the engines again.
"thats alright son, you'll get a mssion yet." johnson replied, his voice so booming there was no need to shout.
the engineer tapped the microphone in his ear, then turned to the platoon
"green light, green light, go, go, go!" the engineer bawled at the whole platoon, who'd been on standby for twenty minutes.
"ok son, you get yourself that mission, alright?" johnson said to the engineer, and before waiting for an answer, he sprinted to the end of the C-130
and jumped.

Following protocal, the airbase went of high alert following the detection of parajumpers. The soldiers formed a large cirle around the landing zone

"this is skylark 234 of the tubaui'n air force, repeat this is skylark 234 of the tubaui'n air force, the paratroopers over BAF valley are not hostile, repeat not hostile, do not fire on them." the pilot sighed after sending out the message.
it was time to go home, for him at least.

As the parajumpers landed the Battlehawk Airforce soldiers lowered their weapons andthe CAptain stepped forward looking for the highest ranking parajumper

Breaking News From Battlehawk

In a shocking story, the Battlehawk area known as the 'RAF Valley' was recently assaulted by a small guerilla force. Several guards on the base, which has it's name withheld for security reasons, were found dead and six NB-666 Tactical Nuclear bombs (suitcase-bombs) were found missing. Later, the president was contacted by an unnamed source informing him that they had the bombs and were willing to use them if their demands were not met. So far no demands have been sent and several countries have began to send in aid to Battlehawk territory. As a result of nuclear devices being stolen, security all across Ursava has increased exponentially in the past few days. Mountain patrols, airport checks, and even the sea patrols have all increased in order to prevent any attempts to smuggle these devices in and land a blow on one of Ursava's treasured allies. Forces are currently being brought in to activation by President Saáry and she is holding a press-conferance on this whole situation as we speak. We'll take you live to that conferance now.

News crews were filming her and cameras were snapping pictures every few seconds while she was bombarded with questions: all expected when one heard news that small, nuclear devices had recently been stolen from an ally. Zigana brushed a strand of loose hair from in front of her eyes as she tried to pick out just one question. She found the question and pointed to young woman near the front of the crowd.

"Yes ma'am?" Zigana asked.

"Madam President, what do you intend to do about this nuclear situation?" The reporter asked.

"I can assure you that security has been tightened and that military forces are being prepped." Zigana replied.

Then another one.

"Madam President, do you mean you plan to take military action in Battlehawk?" An older gentleman asked.

"Yes, if they accept it of course." Zigana replied.

From: The Free Nation of Ursava.

It has come to our attention that several small, nuclear devices have been stolen by a terrorist group within your country. If you would like we are willing to deploy Naval Marines in a counter-terrorist role along with several other units in case the worst comes to worst and we are required to take powerful military action against this terrorist threat. If you wish for this aid to be sent we will be able to have the Naval Marines in-country within twenty-four hours and the rest of the force in the following two days.

<Downtown Hell's gate>

A unmarked blue van drove along the highstreet, The back was full of armed men and one had a small brief case strapped to his wrist.
"Yes, we'll be there in two hours, send the first demand" THe man with the brief case ordered

Battlehawk Governemnt. We have your Nueclear weapons and we will use them if you do not comply with our demands. We want you to release the following people (List of terror suspects) from Pomdale within the next two hours, if you do not comply, we will detonate one nuclear weapon.

"Mr President!" Theresa shouted as she chased President Clark down a corridor "We've received a demand"
"Get a link of to CTU, Right now!"

The C-130s had left Ursava the moment they were fueled up and loaded with the men. Overall, between all the C-130s was a battallion of Ursavian Naval Marines (500 men and support) who were all ready for combat. The Ursavians weren't stupid though, not wanting to waste time or be overly dramatic by para-jumping in to a non-combat zone when there were perfectly good airports to use. Thus Major Erik Jakab waited in the back of one of the C-130s as they all began to touch down (after gaining permission of course) in one of the presumably numerous airports across Battlehawk. The ramps were lowered and the men proceeded to offload while Major Erik Jakab got on a small cell-phone in order to contact the nearest Battlehawk government officials involved directly with the situation while back in Ursava, a much bigger force was being prepped.

"This is Major Erik Jakab, Seventh Naval Marine Battallion: we are ready for action and awaiting deployment orders." Major Jakab said in to the phone as he himself walked off the plane and watched his men prepare right by where their C-130s had taxied to a stop.

"Major, this is Agent in Charge of CTU, Tony Baily, theres been some major changes, let me fill you in..." Baily proceeded to tell the Major all the inforormation

Major Erik Jakab swore, away from the cell-phone of course, when he was told of the new demand and he instantly took charge, jogging between his men who were all setting up while he made his way to a table holding a map of Battlehawk on the top of it.

"Listen, do you have any listening devices, like: super powerful ones? If you do I'm going to need them airdropped on this coordinates, just to be sure..." Major Jakab began listing off three coordinates that, if the listening posts would form a triangle around the capital, just to triangulate it and make sure that the terrorists weren't in the capital.

"Just wait till they call next time if you drop the posts and we'll hopefully triangulate where they are if they're in the capital." Major Jakab said, suddenly gaining hope...at least a little.

"I'll put you through to the Battlehawk Airforce Northern Command" Tony said and transferreed the call.
"This is General Hammond" A voice said to the Major

"Hello General Hammond, I'm Major Erik Jakab. Tell me, do you have any listening posts: preferablly extremely powerful ones?" Major Jakab asked, looking at the map where he had marked the listening post drop-zones.

"They're prototypes, but they should do the trick" General Hammon replied "I'm Scrambleing seveal chinooks as we speak"

johnson's men landed in a field next to one of the larger runways, just as the mission brief told them to.
looking around while he detached his parachute, he saw an important looking airman walking over to him.
johnson waited till the man was close enough before he began to speak:
"lieutenant johnson, 1st recon regiment, tubaui, we've been dropped in here to support your country in the recent turn of events."

Transmission to Battlehawk:

Greetings:

We have heard of your recent trouble with the theft of several suitcase devices. With your permission, our sattellites can scan your country, and point out any radioactive hotspots as soon as they appear. We can also scramble one of our aircraft carriers to your position.

Sincerely Penguin Premier, Kor Kalashvok

((sorry, Accidental double post. Browser's being weird today))

"Greetings Lt" THe Captain said "We thank you for your help"

TO: The Penguin Protection
FROM: The Battlehawk

We thank you for your assistance inthis matter

Greetings Lt, We thank you for your help
LT. Johnson replied:
"your a captain right? Ok, sir we've been dropped here and the most information we have is from a ursavan news reel. we've gathered you lost six suitcase nukes and your being threatened. not much else really." johnson said in his astoundingly deep voice.
by then the other 24 men in his platoon had all adjusted themselves and pulled out their weaponry. mostly it was R-25C carbines, but there were two L96A1 sniper rifles and even a barret M82 sniper rifle

The captain nodded and quickly explained the situation

LT. Johnson looked around, in one of the many bunkers dotted around the airfield, all of his platoon was in here, save for his 2/i/c, who was asking about their actual mission, and a sniper team, who were snapped up by the airmen for a mission.
sergeant corus, the 2/i/c, poked his head through the door:
"lietenant, weve got a couple of local chinooks to ferry us to the capital, some ursavan troops have set up a method of hair combing the capital for terrorist's"
at that point the platoon stirred, gathering equipment and weapons throughout the bunker.
"Corus! wheres sniper team 2?" johnson asked the sergeant.
"there not coming with us lietenant." Corus replied simply.
johnson grouled to himself, sniper team 2 had his best shot - marksman riley, and a good spotter - trooper mcgrath.

OOC: could my sniper team have some sort of assasination mission?

OOC: Assasinating who exactly?

OOC: well i was thinking you could corner a handful of terrorists and have my sniper team take a couple of non-lethal shots at them so your police teams could question them. just an idea

OOC:Sounds alright

OOC: Someone needs to team with the Terrorists ;P

Cafe, Tomoak

The man enters the cafe, glances around cooly and walks to a table in the corner, he is neatly dressed in a crisp, clean business suit. A passerby would think he was a goverment official, but he did not bear the Federal Logo on his shoulder...
The man sits down, next to a similar dressed woman. The man sets the briefcase on the table, with their backs against the wall, and the cafe nearly packed with conversation, they proceed to talk.
"The money is in the briefcase. The rest will be transfered into your bank account." The man stated in a smooth voice, with a slight Eastern Defese accent.
"I hope you didnt steal one of our packages, just to suprise me with it" the woman said cooly, with a small smile.
"And lose a good buisiness partner? Our current deal is more benificial" The man responded, without so much as a smirk.
The woman continued, unaffected
"We are still trying to set up a meeting point with the...Freedom Fighters. But the ATU (Anti Terrorism Unit) is all over the country. by christ they have dogs sniffing every building in the capital."
They continue their conversation, unaware of a third listener, one with the Federal Logo stitched into his uniforms shoulder. But, strangely, he did not arrest the two...
--

marksman riley, having nodded off in the air base, awoke with a jolt when trooper mcgrath, his number 2, awoke him.

"riley, c'mon riley get up." mgrath said to the stirring riley.

"huh, what, huh?" riley asked in his dazed state.

"c'mon riley you gotta get up you lazy bugger, weve gotta task to do."
with that rileys eyes bolted open.



"where?"
