Harmony's Defeat

It was over. Thirty Minutes to stop the plane and we were stuck in this room because the Russians were waiting for us outside. No doubt by now they would be planting C4 to blow the door down. For the first time I had no plan. All we can do now is wait for them to come through the door.
“For Luna’s sake why have we been so fucking unlucky today?”
Just as I said that an explosion came though the wall to the right. We all aimed to shoot but they were not Russians. “Hold your fire team!” one of them said.
It was S.A.S delta team! Finally some good luck. I proceeded to talk to Sgt. Drill, the leader of the team.
“Thank the goddesses you're here! We need to get out of here. We have thirty minutes to get to the airbase to the east. One of the planes is loaded with a nuke and it has the codes to get through the automated air defences”
“What! how?” Questioned Drill.
“Courage, I thought we were not going to tell them about the nukes” said Violet.
“Well we didn’t have a choice now. It’s down to us to stop that plane! I’ll explain everything later Drill. Right now we need to get going before the Russians blow the door down."

Fighting through the corridors to get back outside. Violet was directing us to the garage for the building so we could apprehend some transport (She was really good with that Mini-computer). Liam was most likely still on his way back from re-fueling so he wasn’t available right now.
“Right here! Straight down here and the garage should be right through these doors”
We ran through the doors into the garage. Many Russians already had their weapons pointed at us. We pulled up our weapons but they had already started to fire. The moment they did they were also shot at from the side, killing them before the had a chance to hit any of us. To my surprise Anthony and Edward were already in the back of a truck.
“Mount up! Delta team, You take one jeep. My team on me. Be quick but also be careful, the roads are icy. Violet, you're driving. Edward, Ryder, Rainbow, You're on the back with me. Anthony can rest in the passenger seat.”
We all mounted up on the trucks and pulled out quickly. As we left the garage many tanks took shots at us but they missed luckily. We managed to escape the base by crashing through the front gate. It was a fence gate so it wasn't great at stopping speeding trucks.

“How long we got Violet?” I asked.
“Twenty-four Minutes!”
We were now driving through another town before we met resistance. Two trucks on our six and a helicopter inbound. Delta team drove down a different road to spread out.
The enemies started firing at us from the back of the trucks. We didn't return fire since Violet was making too many turns in the town. Aiming while moving so much would be a waste of ammo. The enemies were also obviously having trouble hitting us but then it didn’t matter to them because they actually had ammo to waste. We didn’t. Violet then turned onto a motorway. Now that were diving more steadily we returned fire. The first truck remained tailgating us but the second came up the side of us.
“On the side. On the side!”
Rainbow and I moved to return fire to the truck on the right. The others continued to fire back at the other truck. The truck on the side had six enemies firing at us. Rainbow was hit in the front leg but she sucked it up pretty quickly and returned fire. I took out a few of them before ducking down to reload. When I got back up to shoot I aimed for the driver. I managed to hit the driver causing it to lose control and crash. Ryder pulled the pin off a grenade and threw it at the other truck. It landed right in the back and destroyed the truck.
“Nice throw!” I said
“Thanks” he said casually in his deep voice.

We were only five miles from the airbase now. Sixteen minutes still left on the clock and we now on a motorway that would take us straight to it. We still had the chopper on us though.
“Russian attack vehicles!”
Many van like jeeps were coming up on us. All had mounted weapons on them, all firing away at us. The helicopter joined them by firing it’s own machine guns at us.
“Rainbow!” I shouted. “...Take down that chopper now!”
“I'm on it!” She replied before jumping off the side of the truck and flying towards the chopper. The rest of us were pinned by the attack vehicles from behind. I had run out of ammo also. One of the trucks was now beside us trying to takeout Violet. I needed to do something.
“Cover me from the other two vans!” I shouted!
The other two covered me as I jumped off the side of the truck and landed on the enemy van beside us. The gunner was not happy to see me. He climb up from the gunner seat and stood on top of the van on the opposite side to me.
“You wanna dance? Lets dance mother fucker”
He yelled loudly and moved to punch me. I ducked and punch in the side of his waist then the side of his chest. He was knock back for a second the tried again. The idiot didn’t stand a chance. He threw another punch this time going for my gut but I strafed sideways to dodge again then elbowed his back, kneed him in the stomach then kick him off the van. I moved towards the mounted gun and another guy popped up to see what was happening. I was going to kick him straight in the head but the van jolted sideways and I was throw down, nearly slipping off the side. I was now on my stomach. The guy pulled out his pistol but I grabbed just as he shot causing it to shoot off beside me. I back handed him, punch him then grabbed his throat with my right hand. I used my left hand to pull the pistol out of his hands then smack him with it, knocking him out cold. Bang! The sound of a bullet shocked me as my stomach fell into a deep state of torment. Someone in the van had shot me through the roof of the van. The van then swerved to throw me off. I hadn’t got a grip before hand since I was in so much pain but as I was thrown off I grabbed the side of Violet’s truck again. As I held onto the side I began to lose grip. Luckily Ryder pulled me up into the back of the truck. I managed to bandage myself up from the gun shot wound afterwards.

By now the vans had pulled back after losing most of their gunners and Rainbow returned from taking out the chopper. Delta’s truck was also with us now. The airbase was not far ahead now and we still had Six minutes to stop the plane. Another couple of vans and trucks were pursuing us. I told everyone to save their ammo so only Ryder was firing back as he was the one with the most ammo with his LMG. We were getting close. Another chopper firing rockets towards us from above and the truck swerving side to side as Violet tried to dodge all the rocket fire.
“Tanks!”
Right by the air base gate two tanks had set up a block formation to stop us getting through.
“Again with the bad luck!”
“Now what!!” Shouted Violet.
I had no idea what to do now. It seemed we were screwed: Running from attack jeeps, choppers firing rockets all over the road and tanks blocking our path. Then suddenly another chopper came down launching rockets at the tanks then spinning round to launch more at the enemy chopper. Suddenly a very excited voice sounded from my ear piece:
“Woohoo! Nashy is in the house! Yeah Boy! Get some!”
It was Liam. I couldn’t believe it. I got up in excitement and spoke back to him.
“Fucking great timing Liam! Now cover us while we stop this plane!”
“Lol Yeeaahh Boooy!!”

We were now entering the base! A large bomber was trying to take off on the runway. Tanks were all over the runway trying to defend it, Firing shell after shell at us. Violet tried her best to dodge but even she couldn’t handle this much fire. Liam flew down firing multiple rockets at them. Liam was just cheering down the Mic:
“Yeah boy! Who’s boss? I’m boss! I am the boss! Boss boss boss boss boss!”
I then turned to my earpiece, “Violet! Get beside that plane! I'm not letting it get away!”
“You got it Sir!”
The bomber was just starting to get it’s run up. Liam was still flying around taking out the tanks. More trucks were making pursuit. They really wanted to stop us but I wasn’t going to let this plane go. Violet drove up on the left side of the plane trying to keep her speed steady with it. Ryder was firing back at the new pursuing truck. Suddenly a hatch opened on the side and some Spetnaz soldier started shooting at us. I jumped for the door of the hatch grabbing onto it’s sides. Before the Russian could react I swiped my hand through his feet and tripped him off the side of the plane. I pulled myself into the plane followed by Ryder and Anthony. I looked back out of the hatch; we were taking off and Violet pulled away from the runway. It was up to us three to stop this plane.

Me and the guys moved into the cargo section of the plane. We moved behind some creates to try hiding from the guards but they saw us and opened fire. We returned fire, me using my pistol of course since I ran out of ammo for my M246. It took us about Fifteen minutes to clear out the cargo bay safely. More Russians kept flooding in from the rest of the plane.
“Judging by the number of soldiers we killed there can’t be many left on board” speculated Ryder.
“Lets get to the cock pit and stop this plane” I suggested.
We moved through to the cock pit, meeting no resistance on the way there. We saw a few guys jumping out with parachutes but we let them go.
“No body is flying this thing?” said Anthony in confusion.
“Well it seems it has auto-pilot...” I tried for a while to turn it off but it was password protected.
“Shit! It’s password protected!”
I sat in the pilots seat excepting defeat. I threw my hands in the air in an over dramatic shrug.
“That’s it then... It’s over. All of this for nothing. We failed to stop them!”
Anthony then looked at me intrigued and asked “What about the pilot controls? Are they still on?”
I looked confused for a second, “Of course they are but.... what? No no no no no... I can’t let you do that.”
“It’s the only way!”
Ryder then but in asked, “Can’t do what exactly?”
Anthony started talking before I could, “...I’m going to fight against the auto-pilot and force this plane to crash before it reaches France”
“Anthony you can’t do this. I’ll do it!”
He cut me off again, “...No courage, you can’t. You're the team leader and Ryder is the only explosive expert you have. I'm just a grunt. You two are much more valuable to the team. You two can kick more Russian but than I can”
“...but Anthony...”
“Go...”

Me and Ryder left to find the hatch the Russians had jumped out of when we passed through. We grabbed a parachute and jumped from the plane. As we fell from the plane I turned to see it crashing into a mountain in the distance.
“...Anthony...”
