F.A.C. OUTPOST 22

Cut to Felix standing before Tucker and his squad.

Felix: It doesn't look good, guys. They've really beefed up their security.

Rogers: Why? What's goin' on?

Felix: Well, it could be that someone from up top is coming to visit. Ooor it could be a response to the weapons I stole from this place a few weeks ago.

Tucker: (sarcastically) Geez, I wonder which one it is.

Palomo: Uughh...I think it's pretty obvious that it's the weapons...

Tucker: Stop talking.

Felix: We're gonna have to go with to Plan B.

Tucker: Wait, whaddya mean? What's Plan B?

Felix: We plant C4, we leave and then we blow this outpost to hell.

Tucker: What!?

Felix: It's a standard hit and run. I've done it a million times, we'll be fine.

Tucker: Uh, actually no we'll not be fine. I thought we came here to gather intelligence? That's gonna be pretty fucking difficult when their computer system is in about forty thousand pieces!

Felix: Okay, I understand you wanna save your friends. I do. Really. But data retrieval is no longer an option. Once we find out where they're holding Wash and the others, the New Republic will do everything they can to save them. (sighs) But today isn't that day.

Tucker: (sighs) Yeah, whatever.

Felix: Now, we've only got one active camo unit. Tucker, that goes to you. It's a little damaged, so try not to run it constantly. Only when you need to disappear. Got it?

Tucker: Got it.

Felix: As for they rest of you, that's up to your Captain...

Tucker looks at his squad.

Tucker: Ooooh. Right!

Tucker then whips out his sword.

Cut to two Fed specialists pulling up in a warthog and entering the cave. They inspect a cable that Tucker cut.

Fed specialist 1: Ah, here's the problem. The rats must have chewed through the wire.

Fed specialist 2: That is a military grade reinforced power cable. What kind of rats are you talkin' about?

Fed specialist 1:...Space rats?

Fed specialist 2:...Yeah I could see that.

Rogers and Cunningham knock out the two.

Fed specialist 1: Aagh! The back of my head!

Cut to a Rebel helmet being tossing into an armor pile.

Tucker: Perfect!

Cut to Rogers and Cunningham in Federal armor.

Tucker: Now, you look just like the rest of those assholes.

Felix: That was stupidly fortunate.

Tucker: Waddya mean?

Felix: I mean, what if we had ended up with two really fat bad guys? What size are you, Cunningham? Like a medium?

Cunningham: Youth extra large, Sir.

Felix: See? Whole plan. Whole plan would've been ruined. Just 'cause you watch something on TV, you think that it's good idea?

Tucker: You don't? (to Cunningham) Also, really man? Youth extra large?

Cunningham: It's very sliming, Sir.

Palomo: Heeeey uhhh. What about me? Do I get a disguise?

Tucker: No. Palomo, you'll be guarding our escape rout.

Palomo: Oh, okay.

Tucker: It's because I don't trust you.

Palomo: Got it.

Tucker: Honestly, if you were out in the field, you'd probably get all of us killed.

Palomo: I can totally see that. Yeah. Yeah, that'd be me.

Felix: Alright. Let's get to work...

Cut to the four of them sneaking into the outpost. Felix sneaks off to the side, while Rogers, Cunningham and an invisible Tucker walk further into the base.

Cunningham: (sighs) Okay, just play it cool.

Rogers: You- you really think this plan is gonna work? I know the Reds and Blues are supposed to be like war heroes. But, they all seem kinda dumb.

Tucker: (voice only) Dude, I'm invisible, not deaf.

Rogers: Oh... Sorry, Sir.

Pan to Felix.

Felix: (over radio) Okey dokey, boys. Everyone take your modified sticky detonators, thanks to our resident insane freelancer,  find something that looks expensive and strap a bomb to it. Once you're done head back to the cave.

Rogers: (over radio) You sure you're gonna be okay out there in your armor, Sir?

Felix: (chuckles) Don't worry about me, kid.

A Federal trooper appears behind Felix.

Fed trooper: Freeze!

Felix quickly pulls out his knife and throws it. Cut to a rear view of the Fed getting stabbed and falling over. Felix clenches his fist in a "yes!" gesture.

Felix: I am fucking awesome.

Cut to Tucker uncloaking by a building with his detonator.

Tucker: Okay, bomb. Do me a favor and don't go off in my face. (looks to his side) Am I right? ...Who am I talking to?

Fed trooper 1: (voice only) So, he's really here?

Tucker: (whispering) Shit.

Tucker peeks around the corner at two Feds talking.

Fed trooper 2: Yep, just came in from the city.

Fed trooper 1: They still got the Freelancer up there?

Fed trooper 2: I dunno. Look it up inside.

Fed trooper 1: Fuuuuck that. I'm not gonna let him catch me slacking off.

The troopers run off.

Tucker: (whispering) Wash.

Felix: (over radio) Tucker, what's your status?

Tucker: Good. Good. Aaalmost done.

Cut to a fed monitoring a computer inside a lab. Tucker raises his detonator to the back of the soldier's head.

Tucker: Don't move!

Fed: (turning) What the?

Tucker: I said don't move! Turning is moving!

Fed: (turns back) Uurgh...

Tucker: Okay, I want like a hard drive or something. With base locations and classified shit. And any info you've got on Agent Washington and the other dudes you kidnapped awhile back.

Fed: Okay. Just take it easy.

Rogers: (over radio) Captain, we're almost done. Where are you?

Tucker: I'm in the lab. Give me a sec.

Felix: (over radio) You're what!!?

Tucker: Dude, chill out. I got this.

Felix: Are you fucking kidding me! I specifically told you not to- (Tucker cuts off the transmission)

Tucker: Thank you, mute button.

Fed: Alright. The data is copying over onto a flash drive.

Tucker: Sweet.

Tucker knocks out the soldier.

Tucker: Ha ha! Look who's dumb now!

Cunningham comes up behind Tucker.

Cunningham: Hey.

Tucker: I surrender!

Cunningham: No, sir. It's me, Cunningham.

Tucker: Oh, right.

Cunningham: You turned off your radio. Everything okay?

Tucker: Yeah, sorry. I was kinda in the middle of something.

Cunningham: Well, we've gotta go. Like now.

Tucker: Yeah, absolutely. (looks at the download) Just one more minute.

Cunningham: Sir, but I think the Feds are onto us.

Tucker: Okay okay. We can gooooooooo...

The download completes. Tucker grabs the drive and cloaks.

Tucker: ...Now!

A shotgun blast is heard, followed by the sound of Cunningham's body and an empty shotgun shell dropping to the floor. Cut to Locus lowering his shotgun, with two Fed troopers standing beside him. Tucker crouches.

Tucker: (whispering) Oh shit.

Locus steps forward and examines Cunningham's body.

Palomo: (over radio) Cunningham? Everything okay? Uh Jason? Man, what's going on? Uuuhh guys? Cunningham isn't responding.

Locus: We've been infiltrated. Sound the alarm.

The two Fed troopers leave the lab. Locus glances at the "transfer complete" computer display and the Fed Tucker knocked out. Locus raises his gun and slowly walks forward. Cut to Locus approaching from Tucker's point of view. "Equipment Malfunction" flashes on Tucker's HUD. Locus hears an explosion and turns around right as Tucker's camo fails.

Locus: Grrrrr...

Locus leaves the lab. Tucker looks at the bodies of Cunnuningham and the Fed trooper.

Tucker: (quietly) Ah, fuck...

Felix: (Over radio) Goddammit! Everyone move! We are aborting the mission!

Cut to three Feds searching on top of a building. A bomb explodes and sends them flying. Cut to Felix behind a crate as more bombs explode and Feds run around in the background.

Felix: I detonated some of the C4 as a distraction, so get out of there!

Cut to Rogers planting a bomb in a hallway and running off.

Felix: (over radio) There's a good chance they'll be searching for, and disarming the bombs.

Rogers: Ah, man...

As Rogers runs out a trooper running by stops him.

Fed trooper 3: Hey, you! Stop!

Rogers: Uuuh...Yes?

Fed trooper 3: You're a specialist, right? Come on man we need your help.

Rogers: Oh...Great.

Cut to Tucker running up a hill. Three Feds pass behind him.

Tucker: Shit!

Tucker keeps running through the base with chaos all around him.

Tucker: Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!

Tuckers runs into the cave and comes face to face with Palomo.

Palomo: Tucker!

Tucker: (Jumping back) Jesus, dude!

Palomo: Are you okay? What happened?

Tucker: No! I mean yes! Where's Felix and Rogers?

Cut to Rogers and several Feds standing around a bomb.

Fed trooper 3: Here.

Rogers: Oh.

Fed trooper 3: You can disarm this, right?

Rogers: Well, I ugh...No I...

Fed trooper 4: Waddya mean "no"!? This is your job!

Rogers: Right, no I know ugh...I know.

Random Fed: (voice only) Intruder!

Cut to Felix running from a hail of bullets. He hides from three troopers behind a tree. Taking a deep breath, he jumps out and deflects their shots with his shield then shoots each soldier. Cut to another Fed charging at Felix.

Fed: Yaaaaaaaaggghhh!

The scene goes into slow motion as Felix kicks the soldier's legs out from under him.

Felix: Right.

Felix backs up to Tucker and Palomo at the cave entrance.

Felix: Talk to me people! Where's Rogers?

Tucker: Not here!

Felix: Cunningham?

Tucker: ...Locus got him.

Felix: Locus is here!?

Locus is seen uncloaking through Felix's scope. Palomo ducks Locus' sniper shot.

Felix: Run!

Palomo: What about Rogers!?

Felix pulls out his detonator.

Felix: Get down!

Tucker: No wait!

Felix pulls the trigger. All bombs start beeping. Cut to Rogers and the Feds.

Rogers: Oh son of a bi-

The bomb explodes. Cut to black.
