We can see the USS Valkyrie geolocated and stationed in the Pacific Ocean as Garrison briefs Sword 3-3 Unit.

Garrison: Martial Law for a fucking billion people! They're angry for the assasination of Jin Jie's...

Alice: Who was he, sir?

A dossier of Jin Jie's is shown.

Garrison: He was running for president, democracy, he wanted a govern in favor of democracy transition and the introduction of reforms.

A dossier of Admiral Chang Wei is then shown.

Garrison: Admiral Chang Wei convinced to many that we killed Mr. Jie, backed by the Russians, it's going to be war.

A photo of the Zhi Yu Towers in Shanghai's Huangpu District is shown along with a Dossier of CIA Agent Kovic, codenamed Whistler.

Garrison: Your mission is to pull and extract VIP's from the Zhi You Towers in Shanghai safe and sound, a CIA Agent will coordinate the extraction of the VIP's, Laszlo "Whistler" Kovic...

Kirito: Any possible targets?

The Rules of Engagement are shown.

Garrison: The PLA are behind the tail of Kovic and the VIP's, so you're cleared to engage any threats that may be on your way to reach them and while extracting them.

Kirito: Solid copy.

The satellite geolocates MARSOC Sergeant Kazuto "Kirito" Kirigaya in Shanghai, China.

Shanghai, China.

January 15th, 2020.

0311 ZULU.

[Sgt. Kazuto "Kirito" Kirigaya]

We start with the squad sitting on a five-seated van, Kirito is on the passenger seats with Alice and Konno to his right, while Sinon is the pilot and Asuna is the co-pilot.

Asuna: I hope nothing happens to the van.

Sinon: Don't worry, lil sis, we'll be fine.

As Sinon drives through the streets of Huangpu District in Shanghai, Police sirens are heard on the background while some civilians flee and cross the streets.

Konno: This ambient kinda sucks honestly, even the police is nervous.

Sinon: We're going through a storm of shit to pick up the trophy.

Asuna: A beautiful trip, don't you think, Kirito?

Kirito: I know, right?

Alice: I wouldn't mind getting a cafe now!

Just as they talk, they spot PLA Infantry about to enter a military checkpoint.

Kirito: Motorized Infantry Spotted...

Sinon: Copy that...

While the PLA cross a military checkpoint, Sinon takes the other way to avoid entering conflict with the police.

Asuna: I spotted the tower... We're getting two VIP's along with Kovic, right?

Alice: Indeed.

However, while crossing the street Sinon picked up with the van, they van is hit on the front window by one of the civilians with a stone, forcing the van to crash and trapping them in an alley.

Sinon: Fuck! We're Trapped!

Alice: We'll need to continue on foot! Get out!

Kirito: Roger that!

They get out of the van and continue on foot, the door to continue is closed.

Sinon: It's closed! Asuna?

Asuna: Leave it to me!

Asuna manages to unlock the door.

Asuna: Ladies and Gentleman, we're moving!

Moving forward and getting to a rooftop with a view in front of the tower, where Admiral Chang was doing a speech in chinese, while spotting an Z-9 Haitun.

Kirito: Oh hell no...

Alice: Those seem to be PLA Spec Ops, let's move stealthy before their chopper spot us.

Konno: Let's move!

Kirito radio'ed Garrison while moving forward the building, avoiding the Chinese Police and PLA.

Kirito: Fortress, this is Sword 3-3 Echo, how copy? Over.

Garrison: This is Fortress, send traffic, over.

Kirito: Roger, uh... There are PLA troops around the Tower, reportedly Spec Ops, break, unknown number for now, they're unaware of us, over.

Garrison: Solid copy, 3-3 Echo, do whatever you can in order to link up with the VIP's and Kovic, out.

Kirito: Roger that, Fortress, 3-3 out.

They reach a lift elevator in the residential Zhi Yu Tower.

Alice: Call the elevator, Kirito.

Kirito calls the elevator, they go inside, while Konno checks his bag to give them the weapons.

Konno: Get ready! Here!

Kirito recognizes the weapon.

Kirito: Some MP7's, huh?

Alice: You know the weapon, Kirito?

Kirito: They're used by SWAT in the US.

Just as he says that, the lift door opens and reveals some Chinese Spec Ops.

Alice: Wrong Floor!

Sinon: Close the door!

They down some PLA troops as the lift door closes and goes for the last floor.

Kirito: Shit! I guess we've just invaded China!

Sinon: Any alternative?

Alice: No, just concentrate in the objectives and surviving.

They reach the last floor, which seemed clear, however, they find PLA Infantry, unaware of them.

Konno: One at 8'O Clock

Kirito takes his Bayonet Knife out and downs him.

Alice: Tango Down.

Kirito downs another two with his knife.

Kirito: Got visual on three tangos, 4'o Clock, i can't take them stealthy by myself.

Alice: Down one of them by yourself, Sinon and I will down the other two.

Kirito fires on one of them with a headshot with his silenced MP7, while Asuna and Sinon down the other two the same way.

Kirito: All clear!

They move forward and upstairs, finding a security door.

Asuna: Shit! A Security Door!

Sinon: It's your thing, Asuna!

Asuna: Cover me! It will take a while!

Just as she said that, the same helo from before is heard approaching.

Sinon: Shit! The helo is going for the roof to deploy troops!

Kirito: There's some claymores here, help me put them Sinon.

Kirito and Sinon put some claymores around the windows and others and later get back to their position.

The Haitun deploys troops then.

Konno: Here they come!

However, as they broke through the windows, they ate the claymores, eliminating all reinforcements since they we're blown up to pieces.

Kirito: I hope you liked the breakfast...

Asuna manages to open the security door.

Asuna: I'm done with things here! Let's move out!

They move upstairs to the rooms, they find PLA troops which are eventually blown up by an explosion.

Alice: 38, That was their room...

Sinon: No one's alive!

Just then, Kovic opens the door to the left.

Kovic: You're late!

Kirito: It's not easy to move on when you're followed by a bunch of Spec Ops.

Kovic: Why did you think i switched rooms?

Konno: If you can move, Kovic, then why you need us?

Kovic: Crossing the corridor is easier than crossing the street! Get in here!

They move inside the room, finding the two VIP's.

Sinon: So, these are our VIP's, right?

Kovic: Exactly, a notable woman and her husband.

Hannah: My name's Hannah, this is my husband, thanks for getting here.

Alice approaches the two of them, speaking in Mandarin Chinese to the husband, who seemed injured.

Alice: 先生，你没事吗？你能移动吗？(Sir, you're okay? can you move?)

The husband replies to her whispering in Chinese as well, Alice tells the others about his status.

Alice: He's wounded but can move.

Sinon: He should rest, but we can't, there was a chopper that deployed troops before but that has landed on the roof.

Kovic: Maybe it's our only way out... But what about your squad?

Alice: Don't worry, Kovic, we'll search another way out.

Hannah: Thanks for coming all the way here.

Kovic: Let's move up!

Kirito: On our way! Oscar Mike!

They move to the rooftop, guarded by Chinese Infantry and Spec Ops.

Asuna: 先生，夫人，待在这儿，我们会照顾他们的 (Sir, Madam, stay here, we'll take care of 'em)

Kovic: Secure the rooftop, i'll watch over them.

Asuna: Roger.

Kirito marks the targets.

Kirito: Fire!

Engaging and killing them up, they escort and cover them to the Z-9 Haitun helicopter.

Kovic: All VIP's Inside.

Alice: Go! I'll tell Garrison of this!

Kovic: Roger, we're out!

As the Haitun from Kovic leaves, they move out of the rooftop while Kirito informs Garrison.

Kirito: Fortress, this is Sword 3-3 Echo, SITREP, over.

Garrison: Sword 3-3, this is Fortress, go ahead, over.

Kirito: VIP's and Whistler are secured coming on a Z-9 Haitun chopper, one of the VIP's was WIA prior to the link up and should receive medical attention once they get to the fleet, break, we're still on the city, finding another way out for exfil, over.

Garrison: Roger that, 3-3, exit the building and await further instructions, out.

Kirito: Solid copy, out.

Kirito calls the elevator and they get down to the ground floor.

Asuna: Hell...

Kirito: What's wrong, Asuna? You broken?

Asuna: In stress terms, yes.

Kirito: I guess we're all like that right now!

The elevator door opens on the ground floor.

Alice: Let's move!

Garrison: Sword 3-3, this is Fortress, you've got new orders and instructions, how copy? Over!

Alice: 3-3 Copies all, Fortress, send it, over.

Garrison: Roger, uh... Air extraction is impossible, but there are some boats transporting civilians on the docks, break, try to evac as many civilians as you can if possible, beware of possible hostiles, out.

Alice: Solid copy, Fortress, we're Oscar Mike, out.

Just as they leave, some loud noises are heard from an alley, which turns out to be a Hostile Type 99 MBT that chases them.

Asuna: Holy fuck!

Sinon: Move left! Now!

They move to the alley in the left, avoiding the tank while being chased by him and Chinese Spec Ops.

Killing the Spec Ops and getting to a safe place near the docks, they find a civilian couple.

Kirito: This is like a civil war, honestly...

Sinon: Yeah, i feel bad for these people.

The couple notices them.

Chinese Civilian Male: MARSOC? Good, they could help us!

Alice: Captain Alice Zuberg, MARSOC 1st Raiders, Sword Company, Commander Of Sword 3-3 Unit.

Chinese Civilian Female: Move inside! We'll explain you!

The male opens a door as Sword 3-3 gets inside, he enters and closes the door.

Inside, they see that the couple aren't alone, they're along their daughter and son.

Chinese Civilian Male: We're trying to get to the docks! Our people try to defend themselves! But Chang has MBT tanks near the docks, nobody can enter or get out of the city!

Alice: We we're heading to the docks too for exfil through boat.

Chinese Civilian Female: Then, we have a common objective.

Kirito takes out his tactical binoculars.

Chinese Civilian Male: What do you see?

Kirito: At least two MBT's patrolling the docks, as well as some AT Weapons being stored inside the two warehouses around them.

Alice: All right! Konno and Asuna, stay here with me and the civvies, Kirito, Sinon, pick up the AT Weapons and blow the tanks up.

Sinon: Roger... Let's move, Kirito!

They move outside stealthy and unnoticed for the two enemy tanks.

In the AT Kit, they find C4 Explosives.

Sinon: C4 Explosives? Good! Moving!

Moving stealthy towards one of the tank without getting noticed, Kirito and Sinon put C4 explosives on the tank.

They later hide and blow it up.

Asuna: Boom! See ya champ!

Konno: Don't sing victory yet! There's one left!

The other tank approaches the area we're his companion was destroyed, only for unnoticingly being destroyed by Kirito and Sinon.

Sinon: They're down!

Alice: Nice job! Let's move!

The civvies and the Squad approach the docks, we're some civilian boats are seen in the water being occupied.

Kirito: 嘿，我们这里有平民！(Hey, we've got civilians here!)

A formation of the boats approach them and tell them to get inside, noticing they we're MARSOC, they tell their fleet.

They get inside as they radio Garrison.

Alice: Fortress, this is Sword 3-3 Alpha, we're on a formation of civilian boats loading many civvies, how copy? Over.

Garrison: Sword 3-3, this is Fortress, solid copy, we're at least 7 kilometers offshore the city docks, break, tell the formation of boats to follow yours to the fleet, out.

Alice: Solid copy, 3-3 out.

Telling where their fleet was, they reached along with the rest of boats the USS Valkyrie.
