Camp Ivan Denisovich, SICON boot camp, Siberia

"Listen up apes!" You hear Sgt. Håkans loud voice and you turn to face him towards the door of your barrack "Grap your gear and rifles and head for the quarter master, he'll assing you the ammunition and shocksticks! From there to the parade ground!" You barely have answered loud 'Yes Sir!' when he continues "And Recruit Connor you are assinged as squad leader for this. Now on the douple rookies!"

Once you've got the 'Raider' suits on you grapped your rifles and ran to the Quartermaster 2nd lieutenant Wilkins "Each one of you gets three clips of rubber bullets and Shockstick, squad leders get two 'smokeys' to go with them." The clips and sticks are handed out in rapid phase and after gaining your gear you run towards the grounds where some of the other platoons have gatherd to.

Major Andropov starts the briefing once all the men have arrived "SICON has ordered us to reinforce local law enforcement in Jekaterinburg to calm down riots. You are to calm the athmostphere with your presence and you are not allowed to engage in combat with civilians unless you are under clear threath of attack! In five minutes your transports will land and take off immidiately every one is onboard. At the destination a local police officers take the squads with them in the designated area. That is all."

Four minutes later you see the boats flying towards the camp and staff sergeants and corporals stat yelling their orders for their recruits and boarding is finished within couple minutes. As you wait for the flight to end you notice how differently other act, some are eager for some real action at last while some are nervous of the task ahead. 

 One of the pilots comes from the cocpit and gives short briefing.

"I just got your orders, you are to follow a local officer to your assinged ares. They are told to look for squad leader chevrons so keep good eye on your squad leaders and follow them, if not you will be considired as failing your duty. And I was told to remind you that at this point of basic training failing in your duty will drop you back in the begining and that you'd keep your shocksticks on 'stun' instead of leathal. Have a nice day, we'll land in three." The pilot returns and as soo nas no one sees him you can hear mumbeld curses of navy and flyboys, exept the female recruit sitting two seats from your left curses of not paying attention to school math before aplying to military.

The boats land in the time you were told and hatches were opened at the moment it touched down. As you disembark Connor feel some one tapping his shoulder and yells "You and you, follow me!" One other squad leader reacts and follows the police with you. Once you have left the landing zone you look back to see if every one of your squad is following you, no one seems to be missing.

As you move through the empty streets the guiding police explains what the two squads need to do. "While you were on route here a group of rioters barricaded themselves with in a mall and so far we haven't been able to negotiate them out. We have promision to use you to drive them out there with any non-leathal means available. I'll take you to the intended entry point but from there you are on your own." "

Several blocks from the landing zone you see large shopping mall which windows and front door are covered and four police cars surrounding it. "You will enter to teh amll through roof. once you have clibed to the 4th floor of that building we will shoot ziplines for you. And be carefull, You are facing a group of anarchist and other rioters they convinced to barricade that building. We have no accurate estimate on the number of people in there or what weapons they have. Take care." He points you at the building next to the mall and once donethat he runs towards one of the police cars surrounding the bulding. You hear grubling of how all the crapy jobs are allways left to Mobile Infantry as you move towards the building you were pointed at.

Once the two squads reach the 4th floor you are taken to four separate apartments from which the lines are deployed and you starts you decent towards the roof. So far you have no visual of the rioters and within wo minuts every one is deploytd at the roof and one of the men from the second squad is at the door ready to open it up. 

 "They haven't shot at us yet but reports from other parts of town indicate small number of handguns, mostly rioters are armed with anything longer than arm or what they can throw at us, that includes burning botles. As for hostages we can't tell. The mall was open normally so any number of civilians may be present, though we have no way of telling them apart from rioters, some may have been persuaded to join in their movement. If we hear anything we'll inform you through your radios." the police answers before leaving you to his own task.

On the roof

The threats work and every oone from your squad checks that the stick are on stun and douple check that heir guns are loaded and ready. As soon as the both squads are ready the leader of Squad 2 yells "Let's take names and kick ass!" as soon as he finishes one of his men to open up the door. 2nd Squad is faster at entering the building and while you are right behind them only thing you can hear is the air conditioning and boots hitting the floor.

As the two squads move through the office floor you see or hear nothing. Not a single one of the workers there in couple minutes you have sweeped the offices and you only found sings of fighting, but no bodies or hiding civilians. Intead you find the floor plans. 

 The other leader nods and sets his men next to a door so they can move up to cover your squads advance, you notice how the soldier going second from the door swiches to Shockstick. The leader nods at your direction as a sing to be ready to go. You nod back once your squad is in position and immidiate after wards the second squad storms through the door taking the rioter right behind it by suprise with the shockstick and two others at the end of corridor meet a hail of bullets from the first and third man, falling down the ground whining, but alive. The second squad takes positions at the end of the corridor and force the rioters on second floor to keep their heads down, while moving the three downed rioters to the office and tying them there for duration of the sweep. As you move to secure the second floor you see a glimpse of what the rioters had planned. 

 Your Squad

The squad splits in two, half going to the right and half to the left. On both sides two soldiers open fire while two others check the first shops. Your combat pair watches your back and waits for you to move.

Sweepers in the right side spot nothing, but those in left notice that several hardware tools are missing from the stands.

2nd Squad

The cover fire they provide is keeping rioters in the three other sides of this floor down and preventing any one entering from the floor below, allowing your squad move uninterupted.

Rioters

From the four man your squad fired at one falls down unconsious and the two in the right surrender being scared from the close call, but the last man in the left manages to get in cover of one of the shops.

You hear yelling from the first floor "Eat this goverment dogs!" and see three bottles flying.

Two of the bottles don't even get close but the third hit the railing spilling the burning liquid. Thanks to the wall none of it gets even close of the soldiers.
