They were basically shitting themselves with excitement and fear. Excitement because of the adrenaline rushing through their bodies but to be honest that is quite normal in a army operation. The fear was because they could have got shot by the Gazo army. They were running that fast that they were away from the Gazo army by ten kilometres because the Gazo army hadn't even reached the cave yet. But when Jeremy realised they escaped, he got so angry that he went up to one of his soldiers and shot him in the face to express his anger towards the soldiers. "Do you want to end up like him? Go get those cheeky basterds now!" he ordered and those soldiers advanced 10 kilometres but in the wrong direction.
But meanwhile, the soldiers had reached the compound and saw that it wasn't guarded by soldiers. They advanced slowly through the path to the compound when suddenly BANG!!! An IED had hit Private Kennedy McPherson. It took his leg off and shrapnel hit his windpipe and his arms had been blown to smithereens. He unfortunately suffocated because of the shrapnel which hit his windpipe. That was one soldier dead and all there was left was the General and the Sargeant Major. They had to do this on their own. They dug a hole and dumped the body in the man made grave. They didn't have time to remember anything positive about him so they concentrated on the compound. On the compound door, there was a numberpad which means it obviously had a code. They needed to work out the code but the General found something strange about this. The code was on a piece of paper with the number code 2364. The General thought he was walking into a trap. Were they walking into a trap?
Meanwhile, the C-17 had arrived at Manching AB and the paramedic team escorted Major Julia Solilolo out of the aircraft and to hospital to get surgery onto her foot. She had shot her ankle and it was bleeding severly. The paramedics had told her the diagnosis: Major, I am afraid that you have broken some bones in your ankle which support you to walk properly so unfortunately this will not repair. You will have to be on the crutches for life". The Major stared at the doctor for a few seconds and started crying. "Why did I shoot myself in the foot? I could have just not jumped off the aircraft instead" she said as she was crying her eyes out like a two-year old baby. The doctor went to pat her on the back to cheer her up but instead he got a slap across the face. "I don't want your bloody help! I have already been told what has happened" she said. The doctor left her room embarassed after that slap.
Back at St.Maarten and the Sargeant Major was getting suspicious as well because there was nothing in there apart from The Package. It was there right in front of them. The Package was in fact the L-397 World Bomb. They gasped in shock. "That belonged to the Americans!" the General said. They slowly went over to the bomb just in case there was another IED in front of them. There were no IED's. Instead the bomb had been activated to self destruct in 34 minutes. It was like Doomsday. "Oh my fucking god!" the General cursed. "How are we going to defuse this son of a bitch?" the Sargeant Major asked. That was a good question. How were they supposed to defuse that bomb when they didn't have any equipment to defuse it?
