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????????
