Sniper: Special Ops Page #5

Grab him, Bashir.

Poor Mr. Tyler.

He was so very brave.

All right, Mr. Bashir.

Here's what's gonna happen next.

What do you mean, Sergeant?

I want to know

who that girl is.

And I want to know now.

Sergeant, I already-

Shh shh shh shh!

Here's the deal.

There are dozens of languages

just floating around out here.

Maybe she knows one of them.

And we'll never know...

unless we try.

Maybe you'll get lucky.

Got me?

Yes, Sergeant.

Get to it. Go.

What you thinking about, Jake?

I'm thinking about

trying to get out of here.

Yeah, I've been thinking

the same thing.

Any ideas?

Yeah. I'm gonna go downstairs

and commandeer us a truck.

Yeah? When you gonna do that?

Right now.

Conrad!

Anything?

Maybe. Been at it for a while.

Jennings, how's it going

under there?

Almost there, Sergeant.

Bashir?

Well?

She speaks some Dani.

What'd you find out?

You'll be very surprised,

Sergeant.

Her name is Jada.

She's the daughter-in-law

of the Taliban leader

Abdul Azim Abad,

a very powerful, very evil man.

Yeah, we know who he is.

And that is his only grandson.

Well, how about that.

You think she's

telling the truth?

You saw how those rebels reacted

when they got a look at her.

They fell back like

their asses were on fire.

Well, I think

she's telling the truth.

And if she is telling the truth,

she's worth her weight in gold.

What are you saying?

Sergeant Jennings, soon as

you get finished under there,

I want you in the front

of the vehicle.

Conrad, I want you in

the rear of the vehicle.

I want you guys to keep your

eyes open and your heads down.

Now that they know we have her,

this isn't the end of it.

Roger that.

V, let's go for a walk.

What's on your mind, Vic?

What's on my mind

is Cannon and Chandler.

They're waiting on us

back in Matubahk.

Oh, no.

Oh, yeah.

Just hear me out.

Vic, you can't be thinking

what I'm thinking.

Look, Old Abdul's

daughter-in-law there,

she's our ticket to waltz

right back in to Matubahk,

extract our boys

without even firing a shot.

Are you serious?

You would use that lady

and her baby as a human shield?

Of course not.

I'd just have 'em along,

keep things peaceful, civilized.

That's insane.

Is it?

I got a truck

sitting right there

with enough firepower

to blow old Abdul and his boys

to kingdom come.

Now I got two things

that he really wants.

This will cost you big.

You kidding me?

I'm already out 60 bucks.

- Beeline.

- This is COP Wildside.

Identify yourself.

Beeline, this is Overwatch

waiting for extraction.

Copy, Overwatch.

Message received.

Colonel, this just came in.

Well, thank Christ.

I swear, Chandler's got

more lives than a cat.

Make sure I see all

the traffic on this.

Yes, sir.

All right, everybody,

listen up.

This is what's gonna happen.

Sergeant Jennings,

very carefully,

is going to take everybody

back to Wildside.

I'm going to take command

of Tyler's vehicle.

Roger that.

As soon as you

arrive at Wildside,

I want you to inform

Colonel Jackson

that I elected

to take a slight detour

and reunite this young lady

and her baby with her family,

and that I will be following

shortly thereafter.

All right,

anybody have any questions?

Yeah. Hell yeah.

Sorry, Conrad,

we're out of time.

Godspeed.

Detroit.

You're in charge now.

Sergeant?

I can't leave you sitting in

the brig all by your lonesome.

Who'd you have to boss around?

Thanks.

All right,

let's gear up and move out.

Get timers and blasting caps.

Here.

- Five minutes.

- Meet you in the square.

Rich.

Rich, wake up, man.

Cavalry's just arrived.

Be ready.

Don't run out on me,

little brother.

We're almost home, ya hear?

Well, that answers

one of my questions.

And that answers the other.

Halfway back up the street,

right side.

Rooftop, Sergeant Chandler.

I can hardly wait to see

what happens next.

Let's get to it.

Oh, look, proud grandpa.

At least I hope he is.

You should.

Your life depends on it.

Good luck, buddy.

Hey, who needs luck

when you've got a...

rabbit's foot?

Here we go.

How.

Very amusing, Sergeant.

Just like I figured.

Educated in the States.

Four years Liberal Arts.

Scholarship.

You?

Four years, high school.

All right, have your men

put their weapons on the ground,

put their hands

behind their head,

and then we'll get this

whole matter all wrapped up,

nobody gets hurt.

You truly are

a very funny man.

Well...

your daughter-in-law

sure seems to think so.

And what a handsome

grandson you have.

Yup, he has your eyes,

all right.

He is very dear to me.

My only son Emir

was killed not too long ago.

Very tragic.

Do you think your son Amir would

approve of you whipping Jada?

She made some bad decisions.

Interesting.

An animal's foot...

for good fortune?

Well, you'd have to ask

the rabbit about that.

Get Jada and my grandson

to me now...

and I'll let you go.

Is that your best offer?

Okay, then.

Stand by.

Well?

- Let her go.

- What?

Let her go.

What choice do we have?

Rot in hell, motherf***er!

Get back!

Reload!

Vasquez, blow it!

Come on.

Detonator fail!

You know...

we're gonna be in

a lot of trouble for all this.

Probably.

Most definitely.

I, uh...

I just want to say, uh...

thank you.

And?

You're not a jinx.

Wouldn't have missed it

for the world.

Besides, my uncle is an admiral.

That's right, he is.

So maybe you could

put a good word in for me.

I'm definitely gonna need it.

I could be persuaded.

Your exclusive story rights.

All right, you win.

What do you need from me?

Well, we could start

with a big hero smile.

Okay.

All right.

Okay.

Right here.

Ohh.

Man, what kept you, Vic?

You still sore

about that 50 bucks?

Nope, and it's 60.

Oh, you gonna

be like that now?

And after all the times

I saved your life.

All the times

you saved my life?

That's what people say.

Yeah, right,

and you don't call no more.

You know why?

We done broke the comms

in all this excitement.

Yeah, well, it was

a very long day, brother.

You know what?

When you get a minute someday,

you're gonna have

to tell me about it.

After you pay me my 60 bucks.

Where's Cannon?

He up there, yeah.

Good to see ya.

Sergeant Chandler?

Yes, ma'am.

Are you really as good

as they all say you are?

Every once in a while.
