Epilogue: Metal Gear Solaris

OK guys, so after a hurried Christmas post, I come with...

THE EPILOGUE!!! (Drum Roll!)

OK, don't cry, it's not the end of the STORY, but of the FIRST ACT! So I've planned a few more acts for your pleasurable blogging...

OK, Here We GOOOO!!!!!

Snake sat on a chest filled with documents with Bond. "Well Bond. This is the end of the first act. So get cracking already! Before the writer wraps it up."

"Right. Snake, if I want to start answering you, I have to start with FOXHOUND's history."

"OK. Shoot ahead."

"Snake, FOXHOUND was started six years ago, in the year 2015. We started it because we had enough talent to form a counter-terrorism associaion to stop rebel PMCs (Private Military Companies) who are intent on destroying the world systems such as Capitalism, communism, the Internet,stock markets and such. I, being the commanding officer, had selected people among our classmates for this purpose. White Bone (Alwyn) was our Technical Analyst, Sniper Wolf (Kishore) was our ballistics and guns expert. Unicorn Mantis (Jaswant) was our sword and blades master."

"That reminds me. Where is he?"

"Gone to China for a chess tournament."

"I hate Chess. I've never won a game of chess, ever, in my life!"

"Well, anyway. Decoy Anaconda (Reddy) was our master of disguise. Then, we thought we were complete. But the government wished that we had a Covert Ops Specialist, and sent a person for us."

"Tsuchinoko?"

"Yes, but when he was with us, he operated under the codename 'Liquid Snake'. He did not like 'Solid' for some reason."

"Then, why did he leave?"

"Well, our first mission was to annihilate a Russian PMC in Shadow Moses Island. They were holding the President of the United States as hostage. Liquid took the lead and we followed, taking care of the PMCs as we went. Then, he said he'd go inside the place where the President was held up alone. I let him go after splitting everyone else up to kill the PMCs. But I followed at a distance. Liquid went in the building, and after half an hour, the President was running out of the building. I got him, left him in a safe place, and decided to look for Liquid. Just then, the building got fire. I ran in, however to look for him. He saw me, and fired at me. The bullet narrowly gashed my hand. He told me to forget him, and fired another shot. I ducked in time and left. I saw someone else near him, but I couldn't identify him. I ran out and the building exploded."

"So, the government had to regret that choice for Liquid."

"Now, that was the funny part. They said that he died, SAVING the president, and they gave HIM full military honours! And I was cursed for not SAVING him! FOXHOUND's name was desecrated that day. Till then we've worked undercover, and the Government has forgotten us."

"Whoa."

"Eh?"

"Sorry Revolver, I can't say anything more."

"That reminds me. Where is my Colt .45?

"Right here!" said John, handing it over to him.

"Well John. You didn't tell us why you were there."

"Well guys, you know how I won an Olympic Gold in 2020. Liquid came to know, and then, I was kidnapped. They conducted extensive nanomachine tests on me, with the desire to create super soldiers. The nanomachines gave me speed, and the ability to climb walls, and jump."

"More like Spiderman, huh? That reminds me, who's the villain in Spiderman 7?"

"I dunno. But that's besides the point. I managed to escape and tried to hide. Then I found the Colt .45."

"Then you and Snake met, and rescued Wolf and Anaconda."

"Yep."

Snake asked, "That reminds me. What are nanomachines?"

Revolver replied, "Nanomachines, Snake, are tiny microscopic machines injected in the body to identify and even sustain a person's body in certain cases. They can also do so much as to stop certain cells from dividing, such as cancer cells for instance."

"Whoa. So what do mine do?"

"Your nanomachines can produce painkillers, which help if you get hurt, so that you can keep going. They also have a stealth option, which means they turn off so that they won't be detected by nanomachine scans. They do so only if it is necessary."

"Oh. So, that's pretty much it. I'm going to bed."

"OK, Snake. Rest well."

Snake went to the bed and looked out at the tranquil sea below. Then he mused about Tsuchinoko and his plans, and drifted off to sleep.

Well guys! This is a (possibly) fitting end to the First Act! But still, here's a treat for our patient and impatient readers!

Those who can guess the LOCATION of our next act gets a BRAND NEW CAR Free!!!!!

Oh. I forgot. Who am I to get YOU a new car? OK, OK, you'll get a cameo role in our story's second act. Suits you? Even if it doesn't, I don't care, as long as it suits me!!!

And one more thing...

FOXHOUND MEMBERS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO ANSWER THIS POST'S QUESTION, NOR IS KEVIN JASON (my brother) SUPPOSED TO. IF ANYONE OF THE ABOVE PARTIES DO SO, THEY WILL BE.............................................(fill in any evil action here).

OK, those who fill in the blank will ALSO get a cameo! That is, the BEST and MOST EVIL action!

All right! Thank you for reading my post! Thank you and again I say, THANK YOU!

Solid Snake

Merry Christmas!

Sorry, I know it's hopeless, but it's CHRISTMAS! So...

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Metal Gear Solaris Pt. 4

Hey!

Solid Snake has had a good exam and has his HOLIDAYS, so for those who are operating the computer in search of our blog, here's a treat!

Snake's Journal

Snowfield, Shadow Moses; 17/12/2021 7:57 p.m.

Reached the Jail House, and met up with John, an old friend. He says he was brought here for some experiments...I can't ask now as to what type, because, we gotta save Wolf and Anaconda!

"OK, John. Now as this is a covert operation, we gotta keep silent. Remember, stay on my heels and just don't make a sound. All right?"

"OK."

Snake tried to open the door, and then remembered he needed a pass key.

"Errr...John? You don't happen to have a pass key, do you?"

"I do!"

With a swipe, they were in.

The Jail House was dark. Snake heard the wails of prisoners undergoing torture...His psyche was decreasing as he heard them...

"Chris!"

"Oh yeah, rightttt....."

Snake took a right turn, on seeing a dead end to his left. Snake then saw a sign plastered on the wall.

Code Red- Floor 2

Code White- Floor 1

Solitary Confinement- Ground Floor

Torture Chamber- Ground Floor

Burial Ground-  Basement

"Man...they seem prepared for everything. Grim..."

"Snake, so that means, we'd gotta get to the second floor."

"OK, here's the plan. Take this." Snake said, handing him the Mk. 23.

"What for?"

"Well, you go scouting and clear the area. I'll just look around for a pass key to enter the Code Red security."

"Right!"

Snake had a look around, and peered into the torture cell. Tsuchinoko was inside, with a Genome Soldier mounted on some sort of machine, resembling a metal cube.

Tsuchinoko was drawling something inside, but Snake couldn't hear it. The Genome Soldier's voice, though was penetrating the soundproof room, and the muffled cry could be heard outside.

"Please Commander. Have mercy!"

"Please!"

Snake then saw Tsuchinoko go to a computer and type in something. Then...

"Gaaaaaaaa! Gaaaaaaaaaa! Gaaaaaaaaaa!"

And it stopped, as soon as it ended.

Then Tsuchinoko released him and he was taken by two other Genome Soldiers.

(SO-com Call)

Bond: Snake...

Snake: Oh man. I hate these things. They make people crazy.

Bond: I know you hate it, as you hate medical lectures, but still, you've got a mission. Don,t let Tsuchinoko get in the way. Or torture chambers. By the way, I think that the Genome Soldiers who took that guy away might have the passkey.

Snake: OK, I'll follow.

W.Bone: Hey, what's that thing on the table in that room? It's pretty familiar looking.

Snake: I'll get that too. Might be useful.

Tsuchinoko left the room through another entrance. Snake, seeing that the coast was clear, stalked into the room and grabbed the thing. Then, he called White Bone.

(SO-com Call)

Snake: Got it.

W.Bone: Hmmmmm....

Snake: Yeah?

W.Bone: They've actually used this?

Snake: Used what?

W.Bone: That, Snake, is the reason why I won the Science fair in 2011. That's what I call stealth camo!

Snake: So, what does it do?

W.Bone:It's what the Genome Soldiers in the Snowfield were wearing!

Snake: How did THEY get it?

W.Bone: Well, my design was taken away for testing by a Scientific Commitee, and someone stole the thing two days later. I can't believe they're still using it.

Bond: Snake! Get the pass key!

Snake: Sorry, I'll get it now.

Snake climbed up the stairs from the Torture Chamber. Then he went up the first floor, where he saw the guards. He took a stun grenade and tossed it.

BOOM!

With an almighty flash of light, the stun grenade blasted. The soldiers were dazed and colliding with each other. Snake saw the pass key and took it, and climbed the steps again. He was now in the second floor.

Snake looked around for John, who was at the other side, having climbed through the main staircase. John immediately ran to Snake, and near the cell...

Weeeeeeoooooo! Weeeeeoooooooooo!

The sirens were wailing! Snake looked at John, who had just run into an infrared sensor.

"Damn!"

"Look Snake, let's free them and run!"

Snake wasted no time in unlocking the cell door, to see Wolf and Anaconda.

"Snake!" They cried in unison.

"Look guys, we'd better go!"

"Right."

They looked at both sides, only to see some soldiers look around for them. 

"Great. We're surrounded."

"Not yet!" said Sniper, taking out a STINGER MISSILE Launcher!

"How'd you get THAT?!"

"Conned it out of a stupid guy with diarrhea. I held his shirt from the cell when he had an attack."

"Niiiicccceeeeee..."

Anaconda yelled, "We're surrounded!"

Snake pulled the Stinger and pointed it straight at the guards to his right...and...

BOOM!

The Missile exploded, sending the bodies of the soldiers flying, and they made a run for it. Sirens wailed, bells clanged, and Snake could hear the shouting of soldiers below, possibly armed with high tech weaponry. He was running for his life when...

(SO-com Call)

Bond: Snake, fire another Stinger in the same direction. There will be an empty terrace being covered by the wall you are going to shoot. Jump there. Me and White Bone will arrive in a Helicopter in 5 minutes. You can hold on till then?

Snake: Right.

"All right guys! Stand back!" Snake said.

BOOM!

The wall blasted off! Pieces of cement and debris flew everywhere...Once the smoke cleared off, everyone jumped in the hole that the Stinger made, and landed on solid ground. Snake opened his eyes. The light was a great refreshment from the darkness of the prison. But just then...

"Is that...?" asked Wolf.

"Tsuchinoko!" exclaimed Snake!

"Tsuchinoko?" asked Bond.

"Yeah."

"Well, my successor. We meet." said Tsuchinoko. He then looked at every one else. "FOXHOUND? Well, this is interesting...And you! John! What a surprise! I didn't expect YOU to escape and DEFY me! And anyway, where are your good friends Bond and that ummm... technical guy...and that Mantis?"

"What do you want, Liquid?"

"Oh, come on, Solid Snake! No respect for calling my whole name?"

"Why should I have any?"

"Why should I tell you?"

(SO-com Call)

Bond: Snake, We're coming. Till then, challenge him to some Close Quarters Combat. He's a little weak for you.

Snake: Really? Then how is he bragging like that?

W.Bone: It's his policy. His mouth's so big he can stick two fists in it. But he doesn't. THAT'S our problem...

Snake: Oh.

"Hey Liquid! Bet you're not good enough for me!"

"Yeah. Look who's talking. You the Covert Ops Specialist who works for FREE. I, atleast have a whole ISLAND on my command..."

"Oh, so you don't think you're better than me..."

"WHAT?!"

(SO-com Call)

Bond: You so shouldn't have said that...

Snake: Eh?! Why?

Bond: He's got an ego so high he can climb the eiffel tower with it...

Snake: So what? I LOVE crushin' ego!

Bond: ...

Liquid was mad. FREAKING mad.

"Oh man. I haven't seen him this mad since Mantis played that practical joke on him..." Sniper whispered...

"OK, Liquid, prove yourself by CQC (Close Quarters Combat)."

"Fine with me."

Snake gave his gun to Decoy Anaconda and stood in the regular CQC position. Liquid too.

"Ha!" A left jab by Snake.

"Ha!" Liquid blocked successfully.

"Huhh!" Another jab to the groin. Liquid was too slow.

"Uhh..."He groaned. Snake, seeing the chance, caught him in a chokehold.

"Bam!" One kick to Liquid's back. "Bam!" Another. "Bam!" And another. And...

"Thud!"

"Uhhh!"

Snake was hit by Liquid who elbowed him in the chest. Snake was out for a second, but...

"Come on, Solid Snake!" It was Liquid charging towards him! Snake caught his hand, and executed a judo maneuvre to make Liquid fall. They were at the edge of the terrace...

Snake caught Liquid and caught him in another chokehold.

"Snake..."

"Huh?"

"Gaaa!!!" Liquid burst out of the hold with his full strength, his arms tearing wildly to free himself. But then...

"Noooo!"

Damn! He tripped over the precipice. Snake watched him fall, then saw a helicopter in the horizon.

"Good job, Snake!" said Sniper.

"Yeah dude, you'd better teach me that CQC!" exclaimed Anaconda.

"Yeah. But still, I don't think he's dead..."

"Oh come on Chris. Be happy! You've won it!" told John.

Poketa-pok-pok-poketa

The chopper was coming toward them. Everyone prepared to board it when...

"Over there! There's FOXHOUND!"

"Uh-oh. It's the Genomes!"

"Run!"

They ran and made a Prince of Persia-style bound toward the chopper. They all managed to land, when they saw Revolver Bond at the door.

"Revolver! Let us in!"

"Listen! This chopper's just a decoy to fool the Genomes. The chopper will ascend toward another chopper and we will jump toward there! Got it?"

"Right."

They went in the decoy chopper and prepared to jump by taking the positions on the rope ladder of the chopper.But just then...

"Huh?" thought Snake. "This must be..."

"Hahahahahahah! Yes FOXHOUND, this is my latest Nuclear Weapon. Metal Gear Solaris!"

"That's Tsuchinoko!"

Snake was last to board the real helicopter. He saw something fire from the arm of the Metal Gear, and then, in a death defying jump, cleared the gap needed. 

The ray fired from the Metal Gear blasted the decoy chopper to smithereens! Snake was shocked, but safe...

White Bone was driving the chopper. "Is everyone all right?"

"Yeah." said Revolver for all of them.

"OK, Revolver. You have to answer me. Who is this Liquid Tsuchinoko? What does he want? What are nanomachines? And what are..."

"Whoa, Snake. I'll tell you all about it. In the next post..."

"I'll wait till then."

How is it? Please encourage budding talent like this by commenting. Please?

Metal Gear Solaris Pt. 3

Hey! I'm back!

But sadly, we've got our exams. So, we won't be back until 22nd. As soon they're over, expect more posts @ one a day.

Snake's Journal

Tank Hangar, Shadow Moses; 17/12/2021 7:31 p.m.

Got past the Helipad, and found out that Liquid Tsuchinoko is the Head. But who could this guy be? I've only seen his profile in FOXHOUND HQ...

 

(SO-com call)

Snake: I'm in the Hangar.

Bond: Good. Now, you'd better keep stealthy, but get everything you can get here.

(15 minutes later)

Snake: I haven't got anything. Just some Night Vision Goggles and two chocolate wrappers.

Bond: Good. Keep going.

Snake: W...w...wait. You're not angry. That's crazy. Are you angry?

Bond: No. 

Snake: You are behaving strangely...

Bond: No.

Snake: Hmm...

Bond: OK, so you'd better get to the Jail House. Quick!

Snake: OK.

Hmmm. Normally Bond's a more no-nonsense guy. That's why he normally didn't like being with Mantis all the time. And, speaking of Mantis, where is that nut?

Snake's voice echoed in his head. Along with the pounding in his heart. He was pretty tense. The security was a little tough to break through without getting spotted...

The soldiers were a LOT better than the Genome trooper Snake encountered at the Docks. Snake was still waiting, still watching, when...

"Idea!"

Snake took out a packet of chips and took a lighter he found in a soldier's locker. He then lighted the packet at the corner.

"Bombs away!"

The monosodium glutamate in the chips caused it to explode with a resounding BANG! The soldiers were knocked out, as though they were hit on the head. Snake immediately ran towards the back door of the hangar. Then, he opened the door, AND RETURNED BACK INSIDE THE HANGAR. He then hid inside a disabled tank.

The soldiers recovered and searched outside. Meanwhile Snake grabbed an SVD Sniper Rifle. Using the Tank's turret as a vantage point, he sniped them.

"Spot on!" said Revolver.

"Nice!" again Revolver.

"Good shot!" again.

"Atta Boy!" and again.

"Now seriously Revolver, that's enough."

"Sorry."

Snake left the tank after taking the Soldiers out. Then he left the Hangar, only to see a strange sight.

He was in a snowfield, but for some reason he could totally see it was empty.

There were two high walls on the left and right, and the jail house in front. But not a SINGLE SOLDIER even GUARDING the Jail House! "Now that's a crazy sight..." thought Snake. But, still...why not be on the safe side?

(SO-com call)

Snake: Revolver! What's the meaning of this?

Bond: Well, you're a lucky guy! Come on, don't be shy!

Snake: Don't you even have a FEELING this could be dangerous?

Bond: Nonsense! Continue!

Snake: But...

Bond: Oh pish-posh! Nothing will happen!

Snake:...Riiighttt....

Now that's crazy, thought Snake. Bond is Mr. Serious and all that...Has he changed?

Snake just walked slowly and was walking straight to the Jail House, not looking left, or right. He heard footsteps...

With sweat dripping of his forehead, and his hand tightening on the MK. 23 handgun, he walked. Again, he heard footsteps...

"Ahhh, just a figment of imagination..." thought Snake...But still...

Bang! Went the gunshot! Snake immediately let out a cry! Wait! Who was it! A sniper with a vantage point? A Genome soldier at the back? 

Thud!

"Huh?" 

(SO-com Call)

Snake: Did you see that? A genome soldier just fell down near me! I didn't even see him! Revolver! You wanna kill me? 

Bond: Whoa. Slow down Snake. Examine him now. Immediately!

(After examination)

Snake: I can't believe it. The bullet used was a Colt .45, which STRANGELY seems to be YOUR choice of weaponry!

Bond: So, tht's where it went! I must have left it there! If I'm right, the thing must still have five bullets remaining in it!

Snake: Won't there be some ammo in the Island for the guy shooting at me to use?

Bond: No. I carry my ammo with me. Anyway, the gun was a prize which my grandfather won in a country fair when he was young. I now get these bullets custom made for me by a gun launderer.

Snake: Right. But what about me?

Bond: White Bone! Launch a nanomachine scan of the area!

Snake: Nanomachine?

Bond: All super soldiers use them nowadays. I'll tell you about yours if I get the chance.

Snake: Right. But still...

Bond: Come on Snake. You can do this!

Snake: Okay...

Snake took another step. And another. And another. He gingerly walked as though the floor below would crack any second, till...

BANG!

Thud!

(SO-com Call)   

Snake: Again! The same situation.

W.Bone: According to the scan, there are 7 soldiers, two dead just now and five more. Apparently they are using some sort of Stealth Camouflage. It bends the light in such a way that the wearer is near invisible. And there's another person, whose nanomachine signals are strange.

Snake: You mean, unlike the Genome Soldiers?

W. Bone: Yep.

Snake: But is he on our side? The way he's reacting makes it look like he MEANS to shoot the soldiers...

W.Bone: I'll try to hack in his systems.

Snake again walk to the house, this time, much faster than before.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

(SO-com Call)

Snake: This guy is crazy. He managed to kill them all! Even though I couldn't see them!

W.Bone: I can't hack his nanomachines either.

Snake: But their's still another soldier. Now what? Should I kill him?

W. Bone. That single soldier is moving fast...

Thwack!

Thud!

W. Bone: That guy just threw Revolver's GUN at the soldier!

Snake: And he's dead!

W.Bone: Well, call that a guardian angel!

Snake: I know!

Bond. All right Snake! Go and save Wolf and Anaconda!

Snake: Right.

Snake picked up Revolver's gun (with blood stains on hitting the soldier's head) and made a move. He went to the door of the Jail House.

But, damn! He needed a Pass Key to enter. Snake was wondering if the soldiers who were killed would have such a thing, when...

"Hey Chris!"

"Huh?!"

The voice came from the right wall of the snowfield. Snake looked up, to see something jump down from the wall, and then...

"John?!"

How eezzzzzz eeeeeeeeettttt????????

Metal Gear Solaris Pt. 2

I'm Back!

Solid Snake here with a continuation to his latest post...

(White Bone will take care of any post that might be shocking...)

Snake's Journal

Shadow Moses, 17/12/2021 6:55 p.m.

Reached Shadow Moses...

Man! This place is cold...It's lucky that Bone's stealth suit is pretty warm. Anyway, I've got an MP 5  SD...So this is some sort of assault rifle. Nice. Now I've got to save Wolf and Anaconda...

(SO-com Call)

Snake: Hey Revolver! So how's business?

Bond: Bleak. The terrorists have decided that we can get them only by ransom. 

Snake: How much?

Bond: The question is not how much, it's who.

Snake: Then...who?

Bond: You.

Snake: Wha...me?!

Bond: Yeah. The terrorists want you in exchange. And since we couldn't stand for that...they've said they'll give their verdict later.

Snake: So, you mean...

Bond: Yep. You'd better act fast. Or else.

Snake: Right.

OK, So this is it, thought Snake. He reached the Helipad and got a few Chaff grenades (which disable electronics) and Stun Grenades (which release a bright light to stun enemies for a while) and reached the Tank Hangar. Then, just before entering, he saw the Helipad...

(Sound Effect)

Poketa-pok-pok-poketa

"That's a helicopter!" thought Snake. He saw it descend to the Helipad, and saw the search lights of the Hangar beam toward it, and lock on it. He then saw two genome soldiers get out and escort a blond haired man. 

Then, another Genome Soldier came from the hangar, his field of vision narrowly missing Snake, and he went to the blond haired man, giving him a salute.

The Blond haired man drawled, "It's late, isn't it Norman?"

"Yes, Commander. But you have come. That is the whole point."

"And your status report also said that an INEXPERIENCED Genome ROOKIE TROOPER was present to take down Solid Snake..."

"Yes, Commander."

"And you have the GUTS to actually tell me all this?!" His voice was now hysterical.

"I am sorry, Commander." 

"What do you actually MEAN by sorry?!"

" I shall track him down, Commander. If it is the last thing I do." The Genome Soldier said.

" I cannot believe you. DIE!!!"

He took the Genome soldier in a chokeslam and held him in the air. The soldier started wheezing, and with an almighty gasp, started to become limp.

"He is dead." The blond haired man stated silently, dropped the limp body of the soldier, then turned to the two soldiers accompanying him.

"All right. Go to the Jail Cell and give them the order to lock our hostages in Security Code Red. We'll see how Snake will try to dodge it."

The soldiers left without a word.

"So that's the Head Honcho of the place. Liquid Tsuchinoko!"

(SO-com Call)

Bond: Snake...

Snake: OK, so Tsuchinoko's the boss. So what? I've done greater things before.

Bond: But it's him. He was the one who had defeated me years ago. Before YOU joined FOXHOUND, that is...

Snake: You don't have faith in me, Revolver?

Bond: It's not like that, Snake...but...

Snake: No buts. I am going to be successful.

W.Bone: OK Snake, so what are your guns at the moment?

Snake: An MP 5 SD, an MK. 23, 3 chaff grenades and four stun grenades. And two packets of Chips.

W.Bone: What!

Snake: You never know when they'll be useful.

Bond: OK, Snake. Just go to the Tank Hangar. Use your stealth there to get to the Jail House. There, you're on your own.

Snake: That's it?

Bond: Yeah.

Snake: Then I'll eat the chips now. You want any?

Bond: How can we get CHIPS from YOU?! We are on the other side of the planet and...

Snake: Relax. I'm just joking. So, I'll just eat and go.

Bond: I'll leave you in peace.

Man, he pessimistic, thought Snake. And why does he hate chips? I love 'em!

You like it? Even if you don't, pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaassssseeee comment.

I said PLEASE!
