Flight of the Feathermen

[Hetstaine 10852]

'The Feathermen' ..each one willing to slay their entire family with a hatchet rather than lose a team member . Smilingly. Unbegrudgingly..no questions asked.

Namalsk, eight Feathermen deep, five clicks off shore in a chopper. Colder than Nicole Kidman, temps blinking like a 1999 rave party, the Feathermen would not have it any other way. Six gunned up for firefights, two lightly loaded and ready to loot, ballsdeep and ready to die.

Target : Northern Army Base, air drop at 150 feet, chopper to beat it offshore ready in an instant for pickup, loot sweep then evac. Creedence cranks over direct..mission is a go.

Watching the island approach... over the beach... feet dry . Heli full biscuit hugging the treeline, beeline for the base. Slam it over the top , all Feathermen dropping as one, cold wind snaps the chutes open. Directly below are zeds, the team is dropping into a hot zone. Heli 180's and shoots back low to the coast. Ak fire erupts, one of the lightly geared looters ballass charges in and absorbs fire from the barracks, he is down and out but the two bandits are dropped seconds after by the following Feathermen. Quick sweep, base is clear, raid it out and heli is back for evac. All over in minutes. Swoop out low.

Tara bridge and pick up the newly spawned Featherlooter, he gears up from onboard, next target Seraja Army Base. Creedence is still blaring and you can feel the excitement in the crew after the raid, Pushing inland as fast as the heli can pour it on, the cold is affecting one of the Featherman more than the others, thermo off the dial, no turning back as we climb up the hill and prep for another bail.

Pop up over the crest and spot two on the ground as Feathermen start jumping, they leg it maxed out heading for a building near the com tower but the Feathermen hit the ground running and funnel them into a killing zone. No mercy. Raid out the barracks, heli slams down on the pad, all onboard, up and out down the mountain , no losses.The team is out happier than an old lady on medical marijuana. One more raid is decided, the Old Hospital must be hit for meds and heatpacks, Everyone is by now freezing out , the team shaking in unison with the vibrations of the rotors. The hospital is always a bitterly contested piece of real estate, quietness has come over the featherman as the Hospital hill appears in the distance.

A ural and white pickup are spotted hightailing towards the objective, fuck it, no going back or we all freeze. Feathermen are out as the heli circles above. Immediately shit goes south, one of the jumpers slams into a building ,legs busting then plummets to the ground smashed and broken. Seven on the ground now. A firefight erupts, nine have piled out of the Ural and pickup, guns blazing. The heli takes small arms fire and dives away out of range, casualty list growing as names from both sides start rolling up on screen. In the chaos it is quickly down to a three v two , only two Feathermen remain.

The heli doubles the coast picking up fresh Feathers, drops them in on dead bodies , they regear straight into the fight, odds swing and the Hospital is taken. The remainder on the ground grab what they can and call for an extract before all is lost. The heli comes in too hot and overshoots , barrels up and turns, possibly too many whiskies in for skilled flying by this stage. The heli pilot shakes it off and says ' coming in hard and fast, a uaz is dirt trailing it full dicks to us from the factory ! ' The heli comes in hard, slam hogging the tail into a tree and wiping sideways full noise into the grounded Feathermen. The screen is a roll call of the dead team...

..Steak watches the timer from his burning cockpit.

That's disturbing. Hard on from death? :D [i know I know, from dying like that, not death itself.]

Anyway, I didn't even need to look at the author's name of the post to know that it was you, Het. Great story.

Hard ons are required gear when flying with Steak. No hard on, no flight.
