New Lusitania

[Lusitano]

*Viriato arrives o New Lusitania. Another convoy of 4 Whales, 16.000 refugees from Toledo, that makes it more than 103.000 guests! Despite all went well, the other Whale captains give it up, saying that they donne their part and is now time to return to their work. Viriato paid then to compensate the damage, despite only made some journey, it was a good help. HE ges now to the control room where he was expected*

- Viriato - Greetings. So what is new?

- Henrique - Well i have some .. bad news!!

- Joao enters the room - I have even worse. Remember Barbie?! Klaus Barbie?!

*Viriato stoped, of course he remember him. The only mission that Viriato failed, kill Wilde agent Klaus Barbie*

- Viriato - Where is he?!

- Joao - Here on Gran Canaria! About 4 hours journey. He is in a some kind of base in a canyon right here.

It will be a dificult task. The base is on the mountain, and there is only one way to enter. The problem is that is too well defended. Radars and tuets good enough to shoot down a gunboat. And probably the base is shield!

- Viriato - So what is our options?!

- Afonso - You and me, like on Nuremberg!

- Viriato - Oh hell! I hate that!!

- Henrique - What?!

- Afonso - Jumping from high altitude, using a wingsuit and land using an anti gravitational device!

- Henrique - Isn't that dangerous?!

- Viriato - It makes me sick!

- Joao - The blows to north and south of the canyon, 4 km distance, there is a mountain with 3400 meters. Your mission is to jump, enter enemy base, kill Barbie, destroy shield generators and get the hell out, and let the Lusitano do the rest! Is not the first time you do a stunt like this!

- Viriato - It has long time ago!!!!

- Joao - Just in case, Alpha and Beta will be ready. The base in lead mine so scans don't work, and comms will be dificult!

- Viriato - When we will stike?!

- Afonso - Now. Your suit is ready and i toke the liberty to to prepare your equippement! Like Nuremberg!*

*They left the control room and went to the hangar, some children were plaing, Lusitanians and Order, they watch us going to the hangar and wave to us. Viriato smiled and wave back. On the hangar Viriato looks to the Hathor gunboat on a repair plattform*

- Henrique - I want to talk about that!

- Joao - When then come back!! First the mission!

* Afonso and Viriato entered the Dromedary ship that will take then to the mountain, and then toke off*

* Nearly four hours later Viriato and Afonso were ready to jump*

- Afonso - Are you ready?!

- Viriato - No!

- Afonso - Good, let's go! * and he pushes Viriato and also jump. Both men headed to the target area. With that suit they hadn't no thermal signature and on the radar they just look a bird*


* They head fast to the target area, when reaching Viriato passes close to a sentinel! The sentinel raise his head, and then lose it when Afonso passes! Both men manage to land safety and unnotice! viriato takes a deep breath ... he really hates that! They hide their suits and enter the base. They were so certain about their defence and early warning radar that didn't had any gaurds at the entrance, but this was both men thought but they were wrong. Inside, hide behind some crates, they saw some thing very dangerous. They saw 3 Dromedary to be loaded with nuclear bombs, not nuclear devices but ready to blow nuclear bombs! Viriato spotted Barbie, he was inspecting the load of the ships. They waited, and then followed him to his quarters. At the door only 2 guards... easy ... viriato takes his projectile hand gun, puts a silencer .. and he shoots two rounds two kills. Thanks to supressed sound and the noise that was making the workers, nobody notice. Both men stand at the door*

- Afonso - After you! *he kicks the door that open wide, and Viriato enters. Barbie was right behind a desk, with many papers and maps*

- Viriato - Guten tag Herr Barbie. *point him his gun*

- Barbie - Hallo! You finally found me!! But it is too late! You can't stop me now!

- Viriato - Oh yes i can! *Viriato opens fire, he empty the clip but finally Barbie was dead, his eyes glowed for the last time and now, after so many years, mission accomplished. Viriato takes all papers and data pod that was over Barbie desk, and he and Afonso left the room, in schearch for the shield generators.

After few minutes they found the room, again nobody was guarding it, they placed some explosives and then tried to signal the Lusitano, but the lead and some jamming signal made it impossible to do it.*

- Afonso - We could use their comms! Is just the next door!

*Both men went there, again afonso kicks the door and Viriato shoots the three men that were in. When Viraito was preparing to send the signal, one guard enters the room*

- Guard- HEY! WHO ARE YOU?! * And he points his gun, but Afonso shoots him, but his gun didn't had a silencer, and otehrs heard the shoot!*

- Afonso - Oh hell! It really has to be like Nuremberg!

* Both men left the room shooting to the incoming guards, but Viriato didn't had sent the signal. Both men opn their way shooting until they stopped in a death end!!*

- Viriato - This wasn't like Nuremberg!!

- Afonso - No!! What we will do know! I'm low on ammo!

- Viriato - So do i! * he takes the detonator trigger and blows the shiled generators bringing the shield down. The explosion has big but didn't helped both men that were still trapped!*

- Viriato - Now ... we hold!!

- Afonso - You know that i love you man! But just like a brother! I'm straight!

- Viriato - Good! Is one less bullet that i save! * he looks to Afonso* We are not dead brother! We aren't!

* The guards tried everything they could but both men, shoot back not wasting any ammo, but they were too many*

- Viriato - I'm out!

- Afonso - So do i! *Takes a grenade, shows to Viriato* No way i'm going to be caught alive!

- Viriato - Neither I!

* When both men was preparing to rise and charge, things started to blow! It was fire from the Lusitano and the Caravela, while the Rabelo using the cover fire, landed near the base and deployed Alpha and Beta. The guards didn't know what to do, and Viriato and Afonso take advanage of the situation and charge over the remain guards. Finally both men united with the teams!*

- Afonso - How you knew?!

- Alpha leader - Sir the shields went down, and since we didn't had and signal from you, it mean that you were in trouble!

- Viriato - Take the hangar. I want those Dromedary.

- Alpha leader - Beta is already on it Sir!

- Viriato - Good! * pick a weapon on the flor from a fallen guard* Let's go!

* They went to the hangar were Beta was fighting against the remaining guards, but with the help of Alpha and the angry Viriato and Afonso, the guards didn't toke long to fall.*

- Viriato - I want this ships on space, and then to be blowed!

- Aplha leader - Yes Sir!

- Joao - Well well! Looks like you really getting old. Nuremberg went much better! *smiles* Let's go home!

* All leave the base and head home, the Lusitano levels the base, with heavy fire, while the nuclear Dromeday are taken to space, after the pilots ejects and their pods recovered, they are destroyed at a safe distance.

All went well ... maybe God is really on our side!*
