Paradiso 102 Narrative Campaign

Mission 102 - Paradiso: Briefing
Rashad - Muyib Lt.
Aisha dutifully marked down each blood type of each of her new comrades. She concentrated on her work, ignoring their gaze.

Rashad, Muyib trained Lt., given a Light Grenade Launcher due to his precise nature - AB+. Thabit, another Muyib Husam, noted for being willful and unapologetic. He was selected for his Specialized training, Aisha made a mental note to remember O+. Sabir, a Kaplan Engineer who brought along his Nasmat coined Squire-01, was fiddlying with the Nasmat awkwardly. He was O+. Iman was a patronizing Kaplan, ignoring her inherented Nasmat Batman-01, Aisha noted A+. Aisha didn't need to note Hussein's blood type, as was typical with the practical Tauregs, his B+ painted on the stealth suit. Fiddah was a perfect Hassassin in that she was entirely plain, Aisha noted another O+.

Fiddah wasn't looking at Aisha but going over the specs of the two Remotes - Scarab-01, a Fanous REM that was known to drift to the left as it sped through the battlefield and Dish-01 a Kameel EVO that still had Nomad advertisements occasionally creep into its HUD despite numerous wipes.

Aisha already knew Nasser's blood type of B+, he was one of the recommendations, which Tevesh had gladly snapped up. Their commander was very fond of Azra'il - serious men and women who enjoyed the push Power Armor can provide but not as reliant as the armor as other nations. Aisha hated Tevesh's gaze the most, she had read his treaty after she recommended Nasser. She felt that it was a grave error to have performed those tasks in that order. "Their fall from grace makes them hungry to prove themselves, perfect for advance positions where they win their honour back bloodily."
Dish-01 - Kameel REM
Tevesh had already given the floor to Rashad, the Muyib Lt. towered over his comrades from his standing position. Nasser and Tevesh were the only ones who were calm when the Muyib went over the details of the mission. Thabit flipped through Khan's personnel file, as he had already been briefed on the mission.

"Initiative or Deployment doesn't matter for this mission. It is how precise we are in this little dance of activation. Due to previous developments," Aisha felt the entire room not look at her, "we are going into this blind. We're going to send Scarab-01 to activate Techno-device #2. We are slightly less than 50% if our sins catch up with us. Fiddah, we're going to want you piloting Scarab-01.

"Hussein, when the remote falters you'll use your stealth to minimize risk when going through objectives. Utilize Scarab-01 for the more dangerous work, if you can. Go for the centre and lay down a foundation of hurt for the infidels with the troublesome skills you Tauregs have. Both of you should hide to minimize risk, as we need to block our enemies' triangulation. If you can, I will provide obscuration if need be, Fiddah you may want to attack the enemy Hackers with your Markers.

"Sabir, Iman - You are our safety net should our comrades fall, use your Gee Servants. I do not want any heroism, we have a lot of work ahead of us.

"Nasser, the enemy will be coming near us. The Azra'il Chassis is not meant to be speedy, you won't need to move much because the enemy will be coming directly into your kill zone. Rebuke their attempts at stealing this victory from us. Aisha, I've read Saladin's report. I am confident you will be able to provide support for our troops. Any questions?"

The room was silent. Rashad turned to Tevesh who nodded. Rashad addressed the room. "Eat, Pray, Sleep. I hope to see you all back when this is over. Allah akbar."

Thabit and Iman sat in Tevesh's private office.

"When Rashad failed to immediately notice the TAG, Nasser volunteered to head off its assault," Thabit explained. The Kaplan and Husam came straight back from field duty, the blood and dirt still clinging to their uniforms.

"What did you face?" Tevesh snarled.

Thabit quickly assembled a list. Iman glanced sideways at the Hassassin, obviously impressed by his ability to recollect a Black Ops force while under contact. The Muyib passed the list to the warlord to peruse.

"A TAG?" Both soldiers nodded. "What happened?"
Buy the murder machine, only $40!
Iman stood stock still, choosing the freeze option of fight-flight-freeze. Thabit pushed forward, heedless of the gravity of the situation.

"The Lizard rushed forward, took a Panzerfaust from Nasser unscathed before cutting him down after a protracted shootout. The Lizard moved on Sabir and rendered him a casualty. Moving across the battlefield, the Lizard took some damage from Aisha's Rifle before dropping her. Fiddah fired a Marker to hack the Lizard but she missed, the Lizard repaid her by removing her from this world. A Transductor, sensing that we were occupied moved onto the battlefield.

"Hussein ran towards the TAG, was spotted by the Morlock in his haste, had to re-activate his Tee Oh before surprise Immobilizing the TAG. Scarab-01 activated his techno device, discovering the proper pattern.

"The Morlock moved towards Hussein, but Rashad was close by and blocked line of sight with his Smoke Grenades. The Reaktion Zond obliterated Scarab-01 and the Nomad's Transductor zipped around the battlefield, activating beacon after beacon until we were staring down certain loss. The Nomad commander hadn't bothered to order the TAG to break free from its Immobilized state.

"Rashad gave the order to compete the mission before attempting to take out the Morlock. He died in the attempt to neutralize the Morlock, in vain."

Iman took over. She could report her contribution to the team. "Upon hearing Rashad's final order, I maneuvered my Nasmat to activate the nodal point. I drew down and destroyed the Reaktion Zond. I moved to the middle, drew down and destroyed the Transductor Zond which carried all the data."

Thabit resumed the report. "The Morlock killed Hussein in melee. Knowing that we had no way to stop his transmission, the Nomad commander sent out his second Transductor to retrieve the downed information. The second Transductor finished collecting the data and sent out the information. At this point, both us and the enemy withdrew."
Mo' Morlocks
Tevesh, pinching the bridge of his nose, grunts: "Any good news?"

Thabit quickly studies reports before rattling updates. "In other theatres of war, Father Lucien Sforza has reported to be KIA by our operatives in Penemue's ranks. Gromoz has also fallen under his command. Perhaps Mercenaries will not flock to his force? Endalyon's Chandra has fallen but was successfully Cubevaced by the godless AI. Sun Tzu has fallen under Bayruun's command but was successfully Cubevaced as well. The dangerous pair, Pi-Well and Zoe, have met an end when Hacker took a bullet to the back of the head during one of Murm's operations."

Weighing the intelligence, Tevesh seemed to be satisfied with the current situation.

"Our assets are still strong. We have started our days on Paradiso weakly, but we have not taken major losses. The Old Man, for whatever reason, has decided to agree with my assessment that allowing our opponents dictate the flow of battle to be a poor decision. A decision that cost Rashad his life. Psi-Ops will no longer be the 45th's Specialty, but we're going to get faster, robust transport. More Locusts, more of the Sultan's Angels. Immediate Deployment will be part of our modus operandi.

"Iman, your predecessor, recommended the Qapu Khalqi forces used in this operation. Aisha is dead. You are now going to be point on selecting any new Que Kay troops we'll need for the next mission. Thabit, you'll be the liaison for the next batch of Hassassins. Choose someone who has a better head on their shoulders. Allah akbar." Tevesh dismissed the pair with a sharp hand flick. The unlikely pair stood, saluted and left while their commander reviewed previous missions.

"I'm a thug, what am I doing in the thick of things?" Tevesh mused.
RIP Imam
