Bab 43: Chapter 36
Kage was sure what General had in his mind as he brought both Duke and Ripcord with them to their base 'The Pit'.While he had feeling general was trying to recruit the two of them,after all he had seem Duke's profile among the possible recruits.
Duke was questioning them again and agaim"But somehow you're all in the same unit. One you can't tell me the name of right?"
Scarlett was having hard time controling her emotion as hse simply replied" We'd get tossed for telling."
Ripcord acting seriously explained"Duke, Duke, don't you get it: they're super secret, they're Mission Impossible. This tape's gonna self-destruct in five--"
Kage cut in"No, we don't do that."as Kage mentally at least not yet,he gave Breaker who looked down in embarrassment,Kage remembered how Breaker was huge fan of Mission Impossible and James Bond movies,that he brought up the possibilities of missions being given like the tapes in mission impossible.The thing was called too risky by everyone.
Kage now tuned out everyone as he took out his data pad and started going through the video,which was recorded by his suit.He couldn't put his finger in it,but he was sure Ana was not herself it looked as if she was going through wide range of emotions and something just didn't feel right.Kage then took screenshot of her face and do face recognition scan,it didn't take too long as
The picture of Baroness Anastasia DeCobray showed up,it surprised him when it showed the fact she was married to Baron Daniel DeCobray who worked in DeCobray Laboratoire Scientifique.
DeCobray Laboratoire Scientifique is a prominent civilian particle accelerator lab in Paris, France owned and operated by Baron Daniel DeCobray.
Kage went to Breaker and passed the information about Ana Lewis and Anastasia DeCobray to him and said"I want every detail about these two women,don't leave any thing out."
Breaker nodded and replied"No problem."While Scarlett and Snake eyes who saw the image recognized her from the previous encounter.
When they arrived at the 'Pit' general Hawk was rhrit waiting as he smiled and said"Good job, Joes. Outstanding.
He then turned Duke and continued" Welcome to the Pit, Duke. I've read a lot about you two."
Duke nodded and replied"Well, you can't believe everything you read." Hawk was curious questioned" Do you remember that,we approached one of you 4 years ago,but you rejected us then."
Duke replied"Vaguely.But I remember it was for Ops group"
Hawk nodded and said'Right your were drunk and yelled at us?" Ripcord was feeling slightly awkward as he knew Duke felt bad,about Rex's death.Although it was something also bugged he was pretty sure he saw grey clad ninja to be Alex.
Duke shoots Ripcord another look, then turns back to Hawk.As Duke asked"I been in the military my whole life,this doesn't look like any Tactical Op group I've ever seen. Where are we?"
Hawk sighed and replied"Since you are already in this mess,I will tell you as a sign of trust."Hawks felt pity for Duke afted the man lost his entire squad just moments ago.
There's a loud metallic clang and part of the platform begins to descend. They pass the urban combat level where men and women are training with next-gen urban warfare equipment.
Hawk started explaining"Technically, GI JOE doesn't exist. But if it did, it'd be comprised of the top men and women from the best military units all over the world. The alpha dogs...'
They see a pretty woman sip into a next-gen camo-suit, which reflects and refracts light, making her nearly invisible.
Ripcord with smile said" Oh man, I want one of those."Breaker questioned"The suit or the girl?"
Riocord with a smile answered" Both."causing Scarlett to roll her eyes.They descend into the desert combat level, where soldiers train with desert warfare equipment.
Hawk continued "Ten nations signed on in their first year. Working together, sharing intel. Now we have twenty- three."
Duke questioned" I've never seen combat gear this sleek,never see anything like that,what is it?"
Scarlett was annoyed,the guy was questioning them since the moment they arrived she bluntly replied"It's classified."Scarlett one of the few who knew the fact the new armor design was from Kage,it was the best she had seen strong,light and durable.Even the Black bird was created by him.
They reach the deep sea combat level where dozens of men and women are testing fantastic next-gen underwater vehicles. Hawk with annoyed tone said"We have been resolving threats around the world, Good news is we've been pretty successful so far. The bad news is whenever we manage to shut down one organization, another springs up in its place."
Ripcord was in awe asked"Who could possibly fund all this?"
Heavy Duty replied" Oprah."
