Rising Phoenix Warfighter PMC

Rising Phoenix LLC was excited to land its first two Contracts. The firm was less than two months old, but was well staffed and ready to make it’s mark in the industry.

The first contract was to provide protection for a local VIP trying win hearts and minds. Maybe this guy is the one. Maybe not. He pays damn well. Rumors are that he’s well liked among most militias, so this should be a four week walk in the park.

We assigned Vasquez as team lead. Brian, RT and Martínez buffed out the squad.

Boots barely hit desert before Comms lit up. A fringe group was staging a roadside ambush. The team did a quick gear grab and hit the street running. Only to be smack in the middle of a demonstration against Western aggressors invading their country.

Vasquez eyed the threat hiding in the mob. While Brian began clearing a path, the others went hot dropping a rooftop LMG being directed by some crazed fanatic.

Breaking free of the demonstration mob the team came to an eerily quiet block. A Bounding Overwatch exercise began. Suddenly, a Suicide Bomber rushed out from an alley. We knew enough to lay a heavy downpour on the SOB before he closed the distance. He disintegrated some 50 yards from the team. Rabbit Foot? Check!

As the Ambush sight came into view, so did the team. Militants came pouring out of every corner.

Ducking behind a burned out taxi, Brian began burning down Hostiles. Unfortunately he drew the attention of an RPG team. His end came quick and the realities of the job hit the entire team. 

Vasquez pushed forward to be with the VIP.

Vasquez gifted a grenade to the RPG team while the others cleared the rest of the street. Sandwiching the VIP, the team headed back to their compound.

The return was rather uneventful. The loss of a teammate was hard felt.
