Chapter Three: Cargo Ship

July 15th, 1993.

At Camp Thunder. Camp Thunder is a small military base that is home to the Little Birden Fifth Special Forces Group. The camp has a small obstacle course, two small warehouses, and a tall gate with razor wire.

Sonata was in a warehouse and she walked over to a table and she picked up an X16 that was laying on the table where she also picked up a Phoenix pistol which is based on but not an exact replica of a United States Pistol, Caliber .45,

Sonata then went to range two and placed on-ear protection headphones as everyone else had due to it's an enclosed place even with the windows open special forces soldiers have temporarily even permentally lost their hearing making them disqualified in the military.

Sonata fired at the targets but for some reason the one she has jungle styled magazines so she just had to flip the magazine upside down for the other magazine but dropped both when she placed them in another one.

Down the range was a few building that had pop-up targets but further down the range was the same but that's for snipers.

It only took a few minutes before Sonata was told to go to the demolition range where she got able to train with the M053 40mm Grenade Launcher that was under the barrel of her X16.

***

On the demolition range.

Sonata was taught that grenades fired from a grenade launcher need a minimum safe distance for it to be armed and that it is seventeen feet for it to arm. She even got to work with demolition charges as well.

After the demolition range, she went over to another area to train that's made of plywood and modeled after a ship's bridge.

Sonata ran the training and she got the fastest time of eighteen seconds.

***

Later at 11:30 PM. In the Bearing Straight

On a UH-80 "Hawk" Sonata and the five-man team were dressed in all black uniforms with black Kevlar vests, black knee pads, black elbow pads, black gas masks, and black M3 Combat Helmets. Not adding also black combat boots as well.

The Helicopter hovered over the front end of the cargo ship where Sonata and three others repelled out and shot and killed the crew before moving on.

Sonata asked what they were looking for anything that wasn't confidential or top secret.

The Squad Leader replied, "Our Intelligence Agency with the CIA and MI6, and the Federal Intelligence Service thinks either Terrorist are going to plant a Dirty bomb, Radiological, Nuclear, or a Salted bomb somewhere along the Iron Curtain or along the Berlin wall and blame the Soviets or the Soviets blame the terrorist and either side can start World War Three. But half of our intelligence agency thinks it'll be a terrorist attack but the other half thinks it'll be an unprovoked attack to start the Third World War."

They moved out into the ship and spread out where they took out anyone that was armed which was everyone on the ship.

They soon came under fire from armed people on the bridge where the UH-80 came back and a crew chief fired the tri-barrel minigun and soon the remaining two Special Forces soldiers repelled and joined them.

"This is Hunter 1-1 we are bingo fuel," said the pilot, "Heading to LBN CVNA-03 Blueberry Pie. Evacuation will be on station ETA twenty to thirty minutes."

The Bridge's steering and the navigational system was destroyed. But they went below deck.

***

Below deck.

They were expecting a fight but nothing came of it and they were unexpected of a firefight until they entered one big area where they had to fight more people who were armed to the teeth but they hardly had any firearm training but they went through pushing them back.

***

In the second cargo hold.

They found what they were looking for and they took a clipboard and left until the ship got rocked by a few explosions and water started to flood into the ship and they started to run until they made it to another UH-80 "Hawk" and they flew to CVNA-03 Blueberry Pie.

***

On the Aircraft Carrier, Nuclear Powered Attack-03 "Blueberry Pie" is an 80 ton (160,000 pounds) aircraft carrier that's 1,070 foot long, 290-foot wide aircraft carrier with ninety jet aircraft (thirty LB-38 single-seat multi-role jets, thirty LB-55 "Golden Talon" twin-seat multi-role jets, and thirty LB-15 "Unicorn" multi-role two seated jets) and twelve helicopters.

Sonata gave the clipboard to the Navy Intelligence so they can decode what was on it and Sonata stood on the side. She was somewhat amassed what was on it such as the fifteen M71 30x113 Close-in Weapons System, another fifteen M57 Close-In Weapons System in 20x102mm, two 3x 6in/47 caliber guns by 3x3, and two eight-inch/55 caliber in 3x3.

Sonata got scared at the sound of thunder and a bolt of lighting hitting CVNA-04 Apple Pie making a hole into the reinforced armored flight deck and causing some fires in the hanger.

"CVAN-3, BB-03, DDG-07, and "DD-14 are moving into firefighting positions," said someone over the PA system, "I repeat. Blueberry Pie, Aroura Australis, Pine Valley, and Native are moving into position to aid in firefighting."

Sonata then stayed where she was where she really couldn't see what was going on as there was a 921 foot long, 121 foot wide at the center or 36 foot long at the front and rear, 120-foot tall battleship with 12x 20 inch/50 caliber Mk 3 Guns, 10 5 inch/55 caliber guns and ten slots for guided missiles. Battleship was in the way.

I would've hated to be on the axis during the Second World War, Sonata Thought, Those twenty-inch guns could shoot up to thirty-one miles away, and if we were on the axis side then well all twelve Aroura classes could fight the Iowa classes with ease and the Same if we fought the Axis. Wait we did fight the Axis in the second world war but it was meant to counter the Japanese Kongo-class & later the Yamato-class or against the Americans then it would go after the Iowa classes. But I'd don't think their shells would've penetrated the twenty-three in steel armor and reinforced steel armor. I'd see why they were nicknamed "Battleship killers" due to they were made to sink enemy battleships. But their AA guns made them untouchable from the air.

Sonata stayed on the bridge on the lookout catwalk thing. The squad leader told her that they were leaving where they were heading to the Caucasus now.
