Scrap Iron climbed over the wall leading to the parking lot. He figured it was a crime scene, but at this point the base didn't have enough assets to effectively seal it. He had some time before more Greenshirts showed up.
He looked around to see if anyone was there. There was no movement. He pushed forward, only meters from the fence. "Not so fast." Scrap Iron looked up on top of the Mamba wreckage. Lifeline came out from behind the debris, Jinx not far behind him. Jinx had a submachine gun, but it was pointed down. Lifeline had no weapon. Scrap Iron looked at him, stoically. "I just want to know...why?" Scrap Iron looked at him, then to Jinx, then back to Lifeline. The silence spoke volumes. "Why didn't you kill me?" Lifeline clarified. Scrap Iron stood there, completely erect. His posture exuded his attitude towards confrontation. "Thank you." Scrap Iron finally said. He looked at Jinx, and she nodded. He turned and slowly disappeared into the shadows. In a moment, he had completely disappeared. Lifeline stood there staring. "What do you think he meant?" Jinx asked. Lifeline just stared. "I took care of him when he was injured. I didn't know who he was, but I suppose that was enough. He didn't kill me because I tended to him." Jinx just smirked. "He's a Cobra." Lifeline turned. "He's a Cobra, but I suppose some of them have morals." Jinx looked at Lifeline skeptically. "You know, Colton said to let him go. Our guy on the inside...." she kept herself from saying his name, ".....said that it's more valuable to let him go back and report. By us meeting up with him so you can get your answer, he probably figured it out." Lifeline looked back towards the shadows. "I think he already knew."

Duke laid in his bed filtering through a binder. He winced every time he tried to turn to one side. In the middle of mumbling to himself Beachhead walked in.
"Duke." He said. "Beachhead." Duke responded. "Come on in." Beachhead moved in and pointed to a chair. "Can I sit down?" "Sure." Duke said in a friendly tone. "What can I do for you?" Beachhead sat down and removed his balaclava. He looked right at Duke. "I'm sorry for everything." He said. "I just want you to know how sorry I am." Duke just looked him and smiled. "I know, pal." he said. "It was a tense time for everyone. We're good." Beachhead was looking down, he didn't want Duke to see him well up. "Thanks, Duke." Just then, Colton walked in with the unnamed man. "Gentlemen, am I interrupting?" Duke sat up straight, wincing in pain. "No, General, not at all. Come on in." They both moved in, and Beachhead stood up and put his balaclava back on. "I'll get going and make sure cleanup efforts are underway." He said. "General." He looked at Colton. Then to the man. "Sir." He had no idea how to address him. Beachhead walked out, and Colton locked the door behind him. He turned to Duke. "So, we lost a lot of good men today." Colton said. "I know," Duke said, "it was meant for me, and we knew it, but we couldn't prevent it." The man interrupted the dialogue. "This operation was classified to almost everyone on Cobra Island. Had I not known even a fraction of what I did, you, and possibly the entire base would have been destroyed." Colton was not satisfied with losing men, but the base and the majority of the men were still alive, as was Duke. "We let that maniac go." Colton said. "I hope you have a good reason for that." "Trust me," the man said to Colton, "he's not going to tell Cobra more than it needs to know, speaking from our end." Colton seemed a bit skeptical, but had to trust his man. "Fine. Duke, when you get back on your feet you're NOT going operational for a while. We're going to leak reports that you've died. That should keep Cobra happy and make them feel like they've accomplished something. In the meantime," he turned to the man, "how difficult will it be to get back to Cobra Island?" "No sweat. Scrap Iron won't recognize me when I get back. I'll just speak with an accent. We should pick up right where we left off. Chuckles has it all set up." Colton was satisfied with that. "Fine. Let's get the based cleaned up, and send you on your way." He looked at Duke. "And one more thing," he turned back to the man. "Yes, sir." "I never, ever want to see something like this happen again. Use force on that side of the island next time, and keep our casualty rate low. I'll send you Snake Eyes if you need to eliminate. Do I make myself clear, Claymore?" "Yes, sir." "Good." Colton said. "Now, let's go get something to eat, I'm starving."

Awesome read. Claymore was an interesting choice. While not usually regarded as an undercover agent, he is a character only used rarely for special missions, making him someone most Joes might not recognize. Aside from perhaps Leatherneck, Wetsuit, Dial-Tone, and Mainframe.

I like expanding skill sets of the characters, like Scrap Iron. I think he's way underused and unappreciated. Thank you for the great comments! Thanks everyone!
