Extraction Part 1

The night was dense with a quiet chill as Carter's team assembled in the blacked-out van, stationed a short distance from the dilapidated warehouse where Dr. Villanueva was being held.

Inside the lead vehicle, Carter reviewed the operation details one last time with his team. 

"Listen up, everyone," Carter began. "This is an extraction mission. Our primary objective is to retrieve Dr. Villanueva, alive and unharmed. Expect heavy resistance. Drones report about twenty hostiles on site, likely armed and dangerous."

He paused, ensuring he had everyone's attention. "We go in covertly. Use silenced weapons only. I want minimal noise and zero visibility. Anything—or anyone—that comes in your way and poses a threat, you neutralize. Do it quietly. We can't afford to draw attention."

Carter handed out the last of the gear as he continued, "I'll be in your ear the whole time, coordinating from the comms van. Now who is ready to get some?"
