Kevin gets out of the helicopter and drops down in a prone position and starts scanning for enemies.

One by one, the members of Strike Force Alpha and the civilians who were along with them got out of the helicoper. So did the pilot and co-pilot after they shut down the engine. They began looking over the craft as the rotors gradually wound down.
"Let's see if we can get eyes on the compound," said Major Harris, nodding when he saw Kevin setting up and looking through his scope. "It's about a mile to the north."

Kevin peered towards the compound through the scope. "I see movement, sir," he reported. "There's dozens of the guys in the compound, in some sort of paramilitary uniforms. Shaven heads. All of them armed. Looks like a lot of them have AK-47s, and I see some grenades too. No sign of any women. There are vehicles parked there, gray in color. I see a couple of pickup trucks and a panel van. Looks like they've spotted us too. I see a couple of them pointing in this direction."

"We should go back in chopper, come back later," said Katarina hastily. She looked over at the helicopter. "There minigun on it?" she asked hopefully.

"There are machine guns, ma'am," said Major Harris, "but if we pull out now, we're talking hours of delay getting back to base, refueling, and coming back here. There's a good chance we'd be too late to catch our targets and help your friend Lara. Plus, it looks like we've already alerted them. They'll be watching more carefully from now on."
Lt. Rebecca Doolittle examined the helicopter. "We shouldn't take off yet anyway," she said. "I can't tell how much damage there is from the landing. I wish I could say otherwise. I don't want to stick around any longer than I have to."
"Let me take a look, ma'am," said Gary Simpson, heading over to join Rebecca. He leaned over her shoulder and poked around inside the engine. He shook his head. "I wouldn't try to take off on this if I were you. Damned if I can fix it."
"What?" said Technical Sergeant Jessica Valdez. "Move aside, Airman, let me see." She took one look and frowned. "I'm not even touching it. I'd probably only make it worse."
"If you'll allow me," said Julie. "I've never worked on aircraft before, but engines are engines, and I know a bit about them." Major Harris nodded, and she examined it. "I'd better not after all."
Jessica motioned for Marcus to come over, but he knew just enough to know he shouldn't tinker with it.
"Sir, I'm not a bad mechanic," said Kevin.
"No, I need you on watch," replied Major Harris. "Keep an eye on the compound and report anything unusual."
"Yes, sir. The guys who pointed our way are going over to a building and talking to two more guys outside it. They've got M16s. Now they're going inside, and the guys who told them are splitting up and heading to other parts of the compound."
Julie shivered. "You mean we're going to be stuck here?" she asked.
"Maybe we should just risk it and take off anyway," said Rebecca.
"No," said Major Harris. "There's barely enough fuel to get back to base. If there's a leak, or if anything goes wrong, you'll never make it back. We've lost too many choppers yesterday, and we can't afford to lose this one too."
"I'll take care of it," said Catherine confidently. She looked at the engine. "Yeah, there's some damage, all right. I can fix it, but it'll take me a couple hours."
"A couple hours?!" said Julie. "I don't think we'll have that long!"
"Relax, ma'am," said Major Harris. "We're more than capable of holding this position."

"Don't worry," Catherine said to Katarina as she started working on the engine, "I'll protect you."
"Look on the bright side," said Major Harris. "If we find and retrieve our targets within the next couple of hours, we won't have to wait here until evening when the chopper returns."
Kevin continued to observe through his scope.

Re: IC-SWORD-Deadly Mission(Katarina/Julie/Strike Force Alph
Major Harris, I've got what looks to be some sort of officer in the compound with a girl. He has a pistol and a sword but no rifle and she has dark hair with a white shirt and black skirt. She appears to be hot and in her twenties. She is the only female I have seen int he compound so far.

Katarina shudders at the reference to a woman in the compound being 'hot'.

"Keep your eyes on that officer, Osbourne," said the major. "I know you can't hear what he's saying and you probably can't read his lips from here, but try to suss out what he's doing and what he commands others to do." He shifted his attention to Julie and Katarina. "His description of the girl match your friend Lara Voronova?"
"Dammit!" moaned Catherine, tinkering with the engine. "The landing was rough, but it shouldn't have caused this much damge. You guys must have screwed it up when you were trying to fix it."

"Well, if it's not Lara," said Major Harris, "there's nothing we can do about her."
"You mean you'll just leave that girl in there?" asked Julie.
"We're a small team, ma'am. We're not equipped to take on a hundred or more heavily armed guys. Besides, for all we know, she could be there of her own free will."
"For all we know, she isn't!"
"It's not within our mission parameters. If it were Lara, maybe we could find a way to rescue her through stealth. It would be highly risky, but we'd do what we could. Since it's not, there's nothing to gain." He turned to Kevin. "Let's see where they go."
Julie looked away in disgust.

Major, the grey truck is leaving through the gate in our direction. There are guard towers on either side of the gate and there's something else as well...

"Keep the officer in your sights, Osbourne," said the major. "Don't fire without my authorization, though. Rourke, keep working on the chopper." He glanced at Katarina and Julie. "You two better stay near her, just in case. The rest of you, set up a defensive perimeter."
"Sir, we may be able to keep things peaceful," said Staff Sergeant Larry Dauterive. "We should try to negotiate with these guys. We don't want to start a war in our current situation."
"Yes, Sergeant, I'm well aware of that."
