SEALs secure the area in the
shower room. Mason, Goodspeed and Lt. Shepherd stay below.
Suddenly, the motion sensor flashes and all the Marines pop out and
hold the SEAL`s at gunpoint.
Hummel: Drop your weapons!
Anderson: Hold your fire! Stand Fast!
Hummel: This is General Hummel, drop your weapons.
Dillenger: We`re dead!!
Anderson: Anderson here General, Commander, Team Leader.
Hummel: Commander Anderson, if you have any concern for the lives
of your
men then you will order them to safety their weapons and place them
on the deck.
Anderson: Sir, we know why you're out here. God knows I agree with
you. But like you I made
an oath to defend the country against all enemies, foreign
sir, and domestic. We have spilt the same blood in the same mud.
You know god damn well I can`t give that order.
Hummel: Your unit is is covered from an elevated position.
Anderson: Marines under the command of the General. You are under
oath as United States Marines, have you forgotten that? We all have
shipmates we remember, and some of them were pissed on and shitted
on by the pentagon. But that dosen`t give you the right to
mutiny!
Hummel: You call them what you want. But you`re down there, we`re
up here. You walked into the wrong god damn room commander!
[b]Shouting and confusion ensues.
Frye: Let`s waste these fuckers!
Frye pushes some rocks down and as the SEALs are nervous, they open
fire in reaction to the noise of the rocks.
Hummel: Cease fire!!!!
No-one listens to Hummel, and all the SEAL`s die. In the tunnels
below -
Goodspeed: No, don`t go. Don`t go!
Lt.Shepherd: Shit! God Damn! Let go of me. Let go of me!!!
Shepherd is killed also and falls back down to Mason and
Goodspeed.
WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE?[/b]
Tough nut to crack. But he should have hid half the assault
force below to limit losses.
