Somewhere inside the US allied territories In Angola- Fort TexFort Tex, named after the former head of opeartions "Tex" who was long gone into retirement.Most likely sucking cocktails off exotic womens backs no doubt.
Shadow Company was idle, lazy and just rolling from payroll to payroll.The current administraiton was mostly passive, preferd alliances over competitors.Went for words then action, hence the Shadows were never called into service.They had lost hope, theese dogs of war who missed the good old days when raiding was a daily get go, where each POW earned them a bonus for the end of the month.
Now all they did was wait all day, clean their equipment, and babysit some areas or do private security under shell company contracts.
Something bellow them but it was a living
Big risk, Big Reward, thoose were the glory days long gone.
Till today, It had been so long that the first man to realise the Red line was ringing couldnt even recognize it.
The two playing chess looked their comrade in arms pick up the phone.
"Hello?"
-Mobilize a light raiding party, Your new commanding officer will be on site in half an hour
"What?! Who is this?"
-This is Gold Eagle, now get ready to earn your sallary.
The phone dropped from his hands as Gold Eagle hanged up.
Others looking at him confused
Who was it Bob?
"It was....It was Gold Eagle! Lock and load fellas! We're gonna go Hunting!"
Allright we'll be ready in two hours
"Negative Gold Eagle wants us hot in 30 mikes"
Gold Eagle never made it easy, but atleast hes returned to us, Bravo team Gear up and Echo Sabres get ready to deploy lets move lets move!
Commander BlackThorn had been briefed on the situation, a handpicked operator from none other then "Gold Eagle" or Miller himself, Just like Tex.He had big shoes to fill but he didnt have a worry in mind at all.
If he was given a vein of iron he was the man to melt it in his hands and forge a sword out of the sorry excuse that was under his command.
He landed on base to see the Shadows mobilizing, grunts and yelling argued with the rotors spining.
It was time to regain the legacy of Shadow Company, the phantoms of africa that made the world two steps closer to wars but a fat bottom line at the same time.
The Target was simple, a blood diamond mine in the south of the previous nation of the congos.
Intel suggested the security to be light but being a vital point of resources there would definately be a rapid response from tunnel networks.
Hence there would be a need to deploy and take hold of the mines.
BlackThorn got ready and rode one of the helicopters as a convoy of humvees left the base towards the sunset.
They would strike at night.
From Wardens to Operators to Archers were deployed.This would be more then just a boring ol patroll.
Pathfinders were already there prepared to survey to land.
