Kage was now watching were Ana went,he had many questions in his mind the main one was what happened to her.Kage had moved on,but her sudden appearance had caused some of the past feelings to resurface.Kage shook it off and thought"You already have a girlfriend."Kage gave tap on his Arashikage symbol,as his mask repaired itself and once again covering his face.
Kage was then filled with guilty thought"I should have checked on her."He then heard a gun clocking as he turned around he saw it was Duke who was pointing pistol at him as Duke said"Please hand over the case."
Ripcord was pointing his rifle at Kage, then felt katana over his neck,it was snake eyes.While Scarlett was on to him as he ordered"Lower your weapon, Sir. We're not the enemy."Ripcord quickly dropped his weapon and said"Okay got it,now can you please remove the sharp blade away from my neck."
Scarlett, Snake-eyes and Heavy Duty were very loyal to leader Kage,Duke pointing gun at him already caused problems.Their opinion of these two now went down,because none of the showed any signs of being hostile.
Kage quickly whirls around disarming duke and points the pistol right in Duke face as he ordered"Stand down soldier."
Duke seeing no choice held up his hand in surrender,as Kage through for comms ordered"Breaker,we have the case it looks like their is a tracking beacon set up on it."
Abel "BREAKER" Shahaz heard the order through her comms,now jumps out of the Black Bird wearing a computerized surveillance suit, a French/Tunisian accent starts sweeping a scanner across the case ,then disabled the tracking beacon on it.
Duke with scowl questioned' I don't know who you are, and I sure as hell don't know who they are,working need answers."
Ripcord was curious asked"What's your unit?"
Scarlett bluntly replied"That's classified.You don't have the required authority or position."
Snake-Eyes feeling the tense atmosphere discreetly grabs shrunken a a from his belt, but a look from Kage makes him out them back.
Breaker spoke up "Someone would like a word with you."he then sets a holo-projector on the ground in front of Duke, which projects a 3D image of General hawk. Duke kinda recognized him and was stunned.
Hawk with stern tone ordered"State you name and rank."
Duke with slight edge retorted"You first."Hawk didn't like the tone said" My team just saved your life. now's the part where you say "thank you"."
Duke with a scowl replied "Those aren't the words that come to mind just now. We weren't told about any support for this mission, so you better tell your team to stand down and give up the case."
Kage was annoyed,he already had very emotional day and this idiot was mouthing off like he was the victor,Kage spoke up"So you are saying you would have been fine without us.You would have taken down couple of Vipers who had better weapons with just two soldiers."
Ripcord was eyeing,but he heard everything that was said between the two sides.While he wanted to support his friend,he couldn't because it was truth.So Ripcord tried cool his friend down"Duke, like the ninja said those guys called vipers would have creamed us ,if weren't for them.Just cool down,man"
Duke wanted deny it,by Rip cord put hand on his shoulder and said"Listen to me man they already have the case,they could have just killed us and went on their way.But they didn't."
Ripcord didn't want to turn this into a turkey shoot. Someone off-projector hands Genral Hawk a file, he looks at it.
Hawks looking at file said" You must be... Ripcord, expert marksman, weapons specialist,a trained jet fighter."Ripcord with a smirk whispered to Duke"Told ya."
Hawk introduced himself"I'm General Clayton Abernathy. You may have heard of me."
A glint of recognition flickers across Duke's eyes, he nods and answered" General hawk. Afghanistan, NATO Forward Command..."Hawk had small smile hearing this,but it was gone soon when he realized this fool knew his rank,but still went on to disrespect his superior.
General Hawk with frown said" That was my last job.I'm in a whole new outfit now."Duke questioned"What did you say your unit was?"
Hawks smirked and answer"We didn't"
