"The hell if I know. Maybe they hope to use it as a staging ground for their troops." Charlie responded.

In the air

"Or maybe they expect us."

In the air

Ominous silence.

Time skip

They arrive at a secluded spot somewhere in the mountain range late at night. "Ait, men, set up the camp for tonight, we're going to head towards the enemy camp early in the morning. It should take us about a day to get there, so we should arrive around the right time for our stealth operations."

"The more I think about this operation, the weirder it sounds. Why didn't they send a special operations team for this? Why is the compound so close? Why haven't we cared about it before? This is giving me the shakes, bro."

A motorcycle ride to one of Caed's bases in Mallorean.

At the base they intercept the details of a mission.

"Lets go crash a party" Caed says pointing at the corner to another cycle for Zakath.

A bit from the Compound on the border.

They both ride and ride till they get as close as they can without attracting attention on the cycles. They stow them away and camouflage them.

"Shall we?"

Walt gets out of the helicopter, looking across the distance in all directions, making sure they haven't been spotted.

"I know about as much as you do, man. I just do what I'm ordered to do. But don't worry, man, nothing's wrong." Charlie said, attempting to calm Travis. "Now everyone get some rest, we've got a long day ahead of us."

A bit from compound on border

"I think we shall." Zakath says with a smile as he pulls out his rifle.

A bit from the Compound on the border.

"Lets walk a bit and then set up a nest and wait for the guests of honor."

The Morning

As the men wake up, they hear the sound of planes screaming overhead. They seem to be looking for something, but they don't seem to find it, and pass over without further inspection. It is a wonder that they didn't spit the helicopter, but it is in the early hours of the morning. "We need to get moving. They may have seen some hint of our arrival, and we need to complete the mission before it's too late. Grab your packs, take what you need."

The Morning

"Great, now we have ghost planes. As if things weren't creepy enough. And why are we going now? Shouldn't we wait until it gets dark?"

Travis grumbles as he grudgingly packs his equipment.
