Hey this is Smiling Wolf, I don't think this one is gonna have a yiff sorry but as it has been said to me numerous times (cough, cough) I need a stronger base. Well here is a new series by Smiling Wolf.

Life of a Legend

"God damn it!" came the voice from the tent

"What's wrong?" came the shout of a nearby technician

"Gods I've lost contact with Delta" said a liger as he walked out of the tent "That means their radio is dead or they are."

The technician face fell, Delta was the premier Infantry assault team and his commander was telling him that they were most likely dead, "are you sure sir maybe there is a proble-"

"There is no problem, all their gear was new, top of the line, they're dead" said the liger his voice heavy with despair.

"Shit!" shouted Lord "Walker's down"

"Keep moving we've got to retreat" yelled Big Man, voice barely audible over the gunfire

"Sir, Walker's got our radio" replied Lord

"Your fucking" roared Big Man "There is no way we can get the radio"

"Which means were in the shit" stated Lord

Delta team had been taking fire for the last half hour, they were behind enemy lines pinned down by machine gunners and snipers and their radio was now unreachable. To put it simply, they were fucked.

Big Man and Lord were all that was left of Delta team; they had left with twenty men. Most were killed instantly in the gauntlet they were now trapped in, Walker had been their radio man but he was dead, his gear only a few meters away might as well have been on the moon because if either Lord or Big Man stuck his head out they would be wearing bullets and that was a style both would rather avoid.

The commander paced restlessly in his tent, his little brother was in Delta and now most likely dead or captured. "Fucking hell" Constantine swore as he thought of what he could do, finally he accepted that his brother was probably dead and there wasn't much point in sending in retrieval teams, the enemy would leave much of them.

Lord heard the rocket before it impacted only having enough time to fling himself away from the wall before the rocket impacted. Boom! The explosion rocked the courtyard and the wall slowly teetered forward and collapsed on the hiding place of Lord and Big Man, no one could have survived that.

Lord awoke in the Sewers "Big Man are you Ok" Lord whispered out taking cautious steps forward, then he came on the grisly remains of Big Man. The shrapnel from the explosion had removed most of his back; Lord stepped back and retched as he looked at the shattered body of his commanding officer.

Lord heard voices coming down the tunnel they sounded decidedly foreign so he made a snap decision and turned and ran down the sewer tunnel away from whoever would find the body of his friend.

'Thank god for dark camouflage' Lord thought as he pressed himself against the tunnel wall and waited for the patrol to pass, hidden in the shadows Lord was never noticed as the patrollers chatted as they walked by.

Lord checked his gear to male sure he hadn't lost anything 'Lets see I've got my gun, grenades, ammo and SHIT were is the fucking C4'. Lord swore softly as he moved back towards the remains of his friend, he absolutely had to recover the C4 if he wanted to complete the mission.

Lord cursed himself for not checking earlier as he went through Big Man's bag "Found it" Lord crowed victoriously as he packed the C4 and all the ammunition into his pack as possible, his friends maybe dead but he was going to kill a hell of a lot more if he completed his mission. Lord check recon maps of the area found where he thought he was then plotted his course, he was going to complete this mission, and he didn't care what it took.

Lord panted as he emerged from the sewers, he had been running for the best part of four hours but now he was out of the sewers and only an hour away from his target, he readied the detonator of the C4 but didn't insert it into the plastic explosive not yet any way. Lord took a moment to catch his breath and check his maps then he was off running through the rough desert towards the enemy base and revenge.

Constantine waited anxiously for the recon to arrive and inform him of what happened with Delta team and his brother, "This is recon confirming Delta team have been killed all bodies found except for the body of Lord awaiting orders"

Constantine sat up and reached for the radio "Bag and Tag the bodies, arrange for the bodies to be collected then find the force that attacked Delta and call in the FO's, out".

Constantine was satisfied if they hadn't found his brother's body he could still be alive out there trying to complete his mission.

"Shit!" Lord swore as he observed the forces camped around his target, his target was a train station that was responsible for supplying the enemy ,if it was taken out than the battle would end in a matter of days instead of months of bitter urban fighting. The enemy had dug in well, Lord could see machine emplacements, minefields and various other weapons of death that would be hidden to someone on the ground, it was obvious that they had been reinforcing the area, Now the question was how the fuck did he get in there and set the C4 for detonation and get the fuck out before it blew?

The Lord spotted something; vans carrying ammunitions for the enemy very travelling very close to the armory if he could get a bomb on there it would create a lively distraction. So Lord laid in a ditch by the road as one of the trucks stopped, the driver got out and walked over to a bush, Lord rolled under the truck and attached one of the C4 charges to the truck then rolled back out into the ditch to wait for the driver to return and carry his distraction right into the heart of the enemy.

Lord ran to his observation point to wait for the truck to drive right up to the armory, the truck driver drove up to one of the loading areas of the armory and stopped the driver got out and walked away as the enemy began to load the truck.

"This is for Delta, you fucks!" Lord said as he pressed the detonator down, the explosion was astounding; Lord was blown off his feet as the armory proceeded to blow itself to pieces. Wasting no time Lord bolted down the hillside and into the train station, the small figures never noticed as it slipped into the train station.

Lord worked fast, he just hoped there was enough C4 to destroy the train station, when he was done he picked up his gun bolted outside the train station and was just about to reach freedom when a voice stopped him, "Stay where you are scum or you'll be dead before you hit the ground".

Lord spun around raised the detonator and said "worth it" then pressed the detonator and the train station was reduced to smoking ash, the soldier jumped forwards and slammed his assault rifle into Lord's jaw sending him into the depths of unconsciousness.

"So this is the brother of the commander of the coalition forces, I expected better." A cloaked voice said as Lord regained consciousness.

"Gloat all you want shitbag you've lost control of this region" Lord spat back

"You really think that taking out one train station will stop us, if you think so your more fool than you look" the voice replied calmly

"Well seeing as we control the sea, the air and you've lost your only form of ground supply, I'd say yes you are fucked" Lord laughed at the voice

"Well ask yourself this grunt why are we still here if we don't have supplies" the voice sneered at Lord

"I never said you didn't have supplies just that you're fucked when you run out therefore you've already lost this region" Lord replied becoming more smug as time past.

The speaker suddenly rose and struck Lord "You scum will never defeat us"

"I'd say we will by your reaction mate, you're fucked" Lord said spitting blood at the speaker

The speaker turned and left the room clearly saying to the guard "send this one to the camps we can't risk this one in the fields".

The guard the entered the room and struck Lord on the temple sending him once again into the dark abyss of unconsciousness.

Lord awoke in the back of a truck, he was handcuffed with his hands to his feet it turned out to be an extraordinarily uncomfortable position, then truck was rapidly approaching a fortified camp, Lord had seen some heavily fortified areas before but this had to be near to the top 'Pretty fucking intimidating' he thought.

The driver was stopped at the gate and questioned for five minutes before someone came and unshackled Lord and dragged him through the gates, they stripped him of his clothes to check him for weapons, then they allowed him to redress after he had dressed the marched him over to the containment area and tossed him into a cell.

Lord looked around there appeared to be numerous prisoners here and most of them were soldiers, 'hmmm this could prove interesting' he thought, quite a few appeared to be engineers and assault teams members as far as he could see there were no officers, he certainly was concerned about that.

The guards carried compact machine guns and rifles but nothing heavy, 'apparently they weren't expecting a break out' Lord thought 'Well lets just see if we can change that', so Lord sat on his bunk and planned his escape 'this is definitely going to be fun' Lord thought.

One week later Lord was allowed into the yard with the other prisoners and he began his plan, Lord looked for the biggest group of soldiers and walked towards them "Who's in charge here?" he demanded.

A massive lion just looked at him and pointed to the female wolf in the center of the group, the wolf sauntered over to him "So how'd they get you?" the wolf asked.

"Blew up the train station and got bent on the way out" Lord said

"Damn that was you surprised you're still alive" she drawled "You might not want to mention that to anyone but us, those fucking guards have got snitches in here and if they hear that you're fucked mate".

"What rank were you before you were captured?" Lord questioned

"Sergeant, I was in charge of Echo team" the wolf replied slowly "My team got fucked up during insertion massive ambush took out everyone but me and Macc over there" pointing at the massive lion "Where were you?"

"Me, I was a corporal in Delta team" Lord returned

"Fuck you were a Delta" she breathed

The female wolf walked back to the group "Well boys we got us a Delta and he's a corporal so whadda say is he in?"

There was some muttering amongst the men but Lord was welcomed into the group and was soon surrounded by soldiers desperate for information.

The wolf walked up to Lord "My name's Queen welcome to the enemy's worst nightmare"

The men cheered as she said this and the guards were approaching the group quickly drawing shock batons not noticed by the group until it was too late. The guards slammed into the group tearing into the prisoners with shock batons, Lord saw the lion go down the he saw Queen barely fending off about twenty guards, he rushed over and crash tackled one of the guards. Soon the yards was a melee with prisoners attacking the guards with no real care for their health.

The guards hadn't expected such resistance and it soon became apparent that they were losing against the unstoppable force of psychotic prisoners; a guard attempted to reach the gun lockers but was taken down by a small number of prisoners who had encircled the guard's position. The guards were soon subdued as the wall guns couldn't turn inwards; the prisoners had the numbers and destroyed the guard's holdouts and soon controlled the entire prison.

The prisoners appropriated all the guns in the prison but it appeared that the guards had trashed the radio so they couldn't call for extraction or help, "well at least we have chance now" Lord said to Queen.

"Not a great one, you realize that most of these men won't make it back" Queen replied

"Yes but some will and that is why were doing it" Lord said

Then Queen leant over and kissed him "I'm with you from here till the end of the world"
