Crimson Fox smiled at Ray, "Good thinking Ray. You're right. Until they manage to hack into the enemy's communications we shouldn't risk going in guns blazing. You could probably take them all out if it came to it though. I'll have to finesse this. Watch my back." She blew Ray a kiss and jumped onto the jungle in a silent crouch. She watched the enemy patrols and noticed a guard peel away from his patrol to come into the brush. Vivian crawled on all floors like the fox she was named for as she stalked her prey. The man was deep in the trees and started whistling as he unzipped his pants. His gun rested on the tree next to him. 

He never saw it coming as Vivian grabbed him and slammed his head into the tree trunk. He fell to the floor in a limp pile. She relieved him of a pistol and some grenades as well as a knife and the guard's radio. Vivian disassembled his rifle, hid him under a bush, and moved on, jumping up a tree to look again. There were a dozen men spread around the sub on the dock while another half-dozen loitered on the beach. The rest, another dozen, patrolled the perimeter in groups and they were one man down. 

Vivian saw a four man patrol enter a jungle path close by. Perfect. She quickly and quietly made her way through the canopy to overlook the patrol. The last man in line suddenly had a strong pair of legs encircle his neck and choke off his voice as he was pulled into the trees. The next man didn't make a sound as a hand sliced down on his windpipe and he fell limp. The third one had his shouts choked out with a strong grip. The last one turned and saw nothing. Nobody. He raised his gun and looked back about to shout when he saw her. 

Vivian smiled and said, "Bonjour." Then her leg snapped up and his world went black. She hid the bodies and jumped back into the trees. She jumped and flipped to the other side of the trees looking over the beach where another patrol went into the jungle. They moved in pairs and that was fine by her. She crouched down behind two of them and slammed their heads against each other, catching their bodies in one hand each as she carefully to the next pair. She grabbed their legs and pulled them from underneath them dropping their heads directly on the ground. They blacked out as she let their bodies slump on the ground. 

[i] Now for the last one [/i] One final patrol broke off from the main group and Vivian noted this one was even more tightly clustered. She smiled and flipped through the air and landed feet first on the back of two henchmen. They grunted as they were slammed on the ground and the two men in the lead turned around to have Vivian catch them in the neck and lift both of them in the air. She hit their heads together and dropped them while she punched the two beneath her feet in the head. They followed their friends into la-la land. 

That was almost half of them accounted for. She commed Ray, "I did all I could Ray hopefully you enjoyed the show. Now I need a way to the sub. Maybe you can use your powers to disguise yourself as a guard. Take some equipment and lead them off into the jungle. We take them out together then I advance on the sub with you as backup. Sound good?" Vivian felt a rush as she thought about how she had handled the situation so far. Even Batman would have been pleased. 

Elsewhere Vibe nodded while Creeper sighed in disappointment. [i] Sorry guys, wasn't thinking that far ahead [/i] Vibe thought sheepishly and hoped Cindy didn't think he was a moron now. Creeper thought , [i] No fun with you guys I swear. [/i] Vibe grinned and turned towards the jeep. [i] Gold takes the front, Creeper is a hell of a distraction. Red takes the back. [/i] Creeper silently clapped with glee and jumped up into a tree as the jeep lagged behind. Then he fell into the driver's side and slammed the driver beneath him. He let Sand deal with the passenger while Vibe ran up behind the now stopped jeep and pulled the back left passenger off of it. The man slammed into the ground and Vibe's boot dug into his neck. He was out in moments. 

Vibe quickly changed into the guard's uniform, slipping it over his own though he took off the vest. It was a tight fit but he didn't feel comfortable with undressing in front of Cindy. And Creeper too. He relieved him of his gear and thought to Sand, [i] "See if you can use our Javelin's computer to hack into their radio net." [/i] Vibe checked the rifle the guard had and it took him back to younger days. Worse days. Creeper sighed, [i] Seacrest out [/i] He slapped on a skin patch and suddenly the Creeper was no more. There stood Jack Ryder, naked. The man shook his head and followed Vibe's motions. [i] What a trip, lemme tell you being him is something else. [/i] 

Vibe realized he rarely ever saw Creeper in his normal form. He hardly knew anything about Jack Ryder. No time for that. After getting the bodies out of the road and into the bush, he got into the driver's seat and waited for everyone else to be settled. The jeep had a bag that they could stuff all of their excess into, including Vibe's vest and Creeper's feather boa. He drove off, [i] We in Sand? Now should we follow the rest or what? [/i]
