After learning the layout of the building Alex learned that the only route he could take without getting seen was, the entrance on the rooftop. Of course there were people there on the roof, who seem to be guarding the door... Or not, upon closer inspection using his binoculars, Alex saw it was just two gang members having a drink, while smoking.
Alex put a suppressor on his sniper rifle, and with great accuracy shot one of the men, and before the other could react he got a bullet pierced through his head. Now that Alex had dealt with the men on the roof, he needed to stealthily pass the cameras.
Alex took something from the bag he brought, it was a grappling gun, he aimed it at the roof of the shoe factory. There was no cameras pointing upwards, so he was easily able to bypass the outside security.
Once Alex got to the roof of the shoe factory. He looked at the map of the place, the maids made for him. It seems like there was a control center of sorts on the upper floors, which monitors the whole factory.
'It looks like I wont be able to get into the control center, without an id card. Those thugs from the local gangs most probably don't posses the qualifications to enter the control center. Then maybe those professionals have one. Most likely the ones in masks are mercenaries, don't know what squad there in, nor what rank they have, but accepting such a low class mission such as kidnapping, means that there the lowest kind of mercenaries.'
Alex then proceeded to carry the two gang members and hid their dead bodies in one of the boxes he found on the roof. After doing away with the bodies, Alex entered the factory and hid into the the vents.
...
One of the mercenaries hired to guard the factory was doing a routine check on the area. Unlike the easy going thugs of the local gangs, the mercs in the factory where a bit restless. The boss had warned them, after kidnapping the girl one of the most vicious merc of Berdonia would come looking for them.
The boss claimed that the one who would be infiltrating the factory was the 'Silent Flash.' All the mercs who have been in the battlefield for the last three years would know who the Silent Flash is. The merc could the Silent Flash was more of a fairy tale than a real being.
In Berdonia there are five beings that are the most feared by the Southern Union and the Granado Empire. The first was the 'Demon' Lyner, the strongest merc of Berdonia, he who longs for the ultimate battle. There was even a verse made about him to scare new recruits
Run, run, run, cause here he comes.
Run, run, run, for the monster comes.
A Swish of his blade and your head begone
With the shot of his gun, you're all but done. This verse was created to teach them that the battlefield was not simply a place for glory, money, nor fame, it was a place where death and true danger lurks within.
The second was the 'Shadow.' This was an assassin that hasn't failed to kill his target, he has a few kills under his belt, but all of them where high profiled and difficult to assassinate, yet he was able to kill them. It was said that even if you see his silhouette you could never discern anything about him. Not his gender, his age, height, nor his face. Everything about him was all a blur.
The third was the 'Blond Devil' this was a merc who destroys everything with his bare fists. You could see him running around the battlefield laughing hysterically as he fought tanks, and helicopters, with nothing more than his bare hands as weapons.
The fourth was the 'Messenger of Death.' This was a merc that has been in numerous missions, it is said once he has proclaimed you dead, no matter where you hide, no matter who you are, death was inevitable.
Then finally the merc that suddenly appeared out of nowhere the 'Silent Flash.' Many had claimed that this mysterious merc was part of the squad created by the Messenger of Death. Some have even said that he was the child of the Messenger of Death, but most where not sure of this claim.
The 'Silent Flash' has a perfect mission record, even the three current SS rank mercs, can't claim to have achieved this kind of feat. The reason he was called the 'Silent Flash' was because once you see a flash of light there are only two fates available for you, the lucky ones, who see the flash are simply rendered unconscious, the unlucky ones, are offered a quick death.
Unlike the four beings mentioned, the 'Silent Flash' is the only one who hasn't been spotted by others, nor has he talked to anyone, the mission he accepts are random as well. The only way to communicate with him was true the squad of the Messenger of Death, which birthed the rumor of him being part of them.
That's why the mercs who where currently guarding the factory are nervous, only some of them treated the 'Silent Flash' as a fairy tale character, made by the Southern Union, or the Granado Empire. He was created as a sort of motivation, so that the people of one of the two nations would be forced to improve their soldiers. Since if Berdonia had a prospective SS rank that was in the making, chaos will ensue, and the flames of war will grow brighter, with Berdonia gaining the upper hand.
Still most of the mercs feared the 'Silent Flash' even more than the 'Demon.' Since the 'Demon' was real, and they could identify him, unlike the enemy that they know nothing about. the 'Demon' was way better.
The mercs guarding the factory had paired up, as they do their rounds. One of the mercs who where near the control center heard something in the vents, being on high alert he checked the vent where he heard the sound, while his companion guarded his back. When he looked in the vents their was nothing there.
Relieved that he was just being a bit paranoid the merc sighed, he then got out of the vents, he was about to make a joke at his partner, but when he looked back, his partner wasn't there. Unnerved by the sudden disappearance of his partner, he was about to radio in for back up, but then, he saw a white light flash by, and before he could respond with any sort of action, he felt his vision dimming, his consciousness was slowly fading. The merc died, and the last thing he thought was that the fairy tale was actually a nightmare.
