Chapter 2 - Gaining control

Mathew was approaching the tank. He knew his job and knew he could do it. His objective is to disable the tanks mobility so his Comrades could enter the tank to apprehend the thief. Mathew was the best option for the job because his suit was the quickest in the group. Mathew had maneuvered himself behind the tank and was approaching it. As he approached the tank fired at a building down the street. The noise would have caused a regular civilian's ears to ring but Mathew's suit blocked it out. Mathew is behind the tank crouched down. As he surveys the situation he notices a small box hooked to the back of the tank. From years of service Mathew immediately recognizes it as a E.M.P. Device. "Rookie mistake." All front line weaponry has Been built with E.M.P. resistant metal to prevent a total shutdown of the weapon. The tank fires again as Mathew hooks another box to the back of the tank and presses a black button hidden in the shell of the box. The box begins to create a grinding noise as it drills into the thickly armored tank. The E.M.P. Would do the rest so Mathew darted back to the cover of a building. Mathew looks back at the tank and sees the box fall off leaving a hole in the hull of the vehicle. The tank had stoped moving and he could see his comrades making their way to the tank at a fast pace. Now all Mathew has to do is sit and wait for his teammates to do their job. They might as well start celebrating a job well done.
