A/n: Okay. Before this chapter starts, I'm going to give you all a warning. Things may piss you off, make you cry, or just want to walk away. However, this is an important part to this story and how I want it to play out. Please understand and don't hate me.
-Ninjamain

(IQ POV):

I sighed happily and rubbed my tummy gently. Inside there was someone I love, and I haven't even seen them yet. It was mine and (Y/n)'s child.

"What should I name you?" I cooed softly. Even though the baby hasn't developed to a point where he/she could hear things, I still talked to them. It comforted me in a sense. The whole pregnancy ordeal was unexpected from the start.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door, and I looked up to see who it was. Ash was peering through the small opening. In her hand was Chinese food that she forced Lesion to cook. It was my cravings that caused that.

Ash:"Hey, are you feeling better?" She asked worriedly. I sighed and nodded. Earlier, (Y/n) video called Ash, Ela, and I. I freaked out because of the mood swings.

"Earlier, but now I feel bad." I stated glumly. Ash let out an amused laugh and sat down beside me.

Ash:"Don't worry. (Y/n) will be fine." She assured with a smile. I returned the gesture and looked down at my slowly growing stomach. The redhead then followed after.

Ash:"Are you still talking to him?" She questioned with a raised eyebrow. I looked at her with amusement.

"Him?" I repeated. Ash crossed her arms and scoffed.

Ash:"I know it's going to be a boy." She stated confidently. A momentary silence passed before we started laughing together.

After calming down, we started eating. Normally, the food would cheer me up, but I was still feeling down for some reason. It had to be the fact that I said those harsh words to (Y/n). And he was all injured, but concerned for me.

Ash:"What's wrong?" Her voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I looked down at the ground with guilt.

"I said I hated him. What if...." I trailed off, and my lips began to quiver. I was starting to cry again.

Ash:"What if?" She coaxed me to tell more. I looked at my friend with tears streaking down my face.

"What if that's the last thing I ever tell him?" I broke into sobs. Ash sighed and pulled me into a hug. I buried my face into her chest, and let out all of my emotions.

Ash:"There. There. That won't be the last thing you say to him. You know why?" She assured and questioned. I sniffled and spoke.

"Why?" I asked and let go. Ash looked into my eyes and spoke.

Ash:"Because you're going to say worse things during labor." She said with a smirk. I sniffled and cracked a small smile.

"Thanks, Eliza." I thanked sincerely. Ash nodded, and then there was a sudden knock on the door. Ash turned to look at me.

Ash:"Are you expecting anyone else?" She questioned. I shook my head no. The redhead stood up and walked over to the door. She opened it, and there was a recruit standing at the doorway.

Ash:"Yes?" She asked calmly. The recruit saluted her before speaking.

Recruit:"Sorry to bother you, mam. Six wanted you and IQ to meet at the mess hall for the welcoming of the GIS operators." He reported. Ash nodded and thanked him before the recruit left.

Ash:"Are you okay to go? I can tell them that you're not feeling-" I cut her off by waving my hand.

"No. I can go and greet the new operators. It will be really quick." I refused her offer. Ash nodded, and the two of us began walking to the mess hall.

"So, what do you think the new operators will be like?" I asked Ash curious to know her opinion. Ash hummed in thought before replying.

Ash:"I don't know. However, I just hope it's not another (Y/n) before the multiple fake death scenarios." She answered in an annoyed tone. I hummed in agreement.

Eventually, Ash and I arrived at the mess hall. Almost everyone was here, and it looked like a small party. There was food and drinks. I suspect the Russians mixed their vodka into the punch.

Any who, the new operators, Maestro and Alibi, were nice people. Maestro was like the cheerful uncle, and Alibi was smart and beautiful. They would make great teammates, and most likely, good friends.

Ash:"Those two told me that they arrived here first. (Y/n) and his team will follow after they recover from their injuries." She notified. I nodded in acknowledgement, but the last part was slightly odd.

"I thought only (Y/n) was injured." I replied in confusion. Ash nodded in confirmation.

Ash:"Yes, but his team stayed. They claimed it was their 'duty' or something like that." She said the last part with a slightly confused tone. I shook my head.

"He does have that effect on people." I commented. (Y/n) was always a great leader. Just an aura about him.

Ash just shrugged, and then we turned our attention to a loud noise. It was the Finka and Maestro standing atop a table with drinks in their hands. They had their arms over each other shoulders and looked like they wanted everyone's attention.

Finka:"A toast to our new comrades!" She chanted while holding up her glass. Everyone in the room with drinks held up theirs. I just smiled along.

Everyone:"Toast!"

KA-BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!

A massive explosion went off and caused me to fall over. The fear for my child's well-bejng began to rush through my veins. Luckily, Ash caught me and held me up. I thanked her with a silent nod before we looked to see what was going on.

Everyone began looking around in confusion until the crowd turned in one direction. I looked too, and covered my hand in shock. The east side of the base was completely obliterated from the explosion.

Recruit:"What's going on?!" One of the recruits questioned in panic. Suddenly, another explosion went off, and it was on the west side. This began to shake me to the core. It was where the dorms were. The place I was just at.

Thatcher:"We're under attack!" He yelled. Everyone began running in all directions. Some pulled out their sidearms and went to investigate. This was a problem. The east side was where the armory was, and now it was gone.

Ash:"We need to get you to safety!" She stated firmly and pushed me along. I tried to struggle. However, her strength was too great. Must be the pregnancy taking a toll.

"I can't leave you all behind!" I protested. Ash shook her head and drew her pistol.

Ash:"Your main focus is to keep him alive." She ordered and pointed at my stomach. I looked at her with reluctance, but agreed. My child came first.

(Third Person POV):

It was pure chaos. Moments after the initial explosions, more began going off throughout the base. Recruits and operators scrambled to obtain weapons or get to safety. However, everything was going downhill.

Recruit:"AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!" One of the recruits screamed in agony, as he was being burnt alive. Around him were corpses of his comrades. Killed from the bombings.

Bodies were everywhere. Some were unrecognizable from being blasted into pieces. There were some recruits that got lucky and exited the burning base. They hunched over their knees coughing from the smoke and running.

Recruit:"We've got to go back for our brethren!" One of the recruits stated to the others that survived. They glanced at each other nervously, but knew what they had to do. No man left behind.

Recruit:"Okay, we'll focus on subduing the fire. While you guys find survivors." Another recruit suggested, and everyone agreed.

However, before any of them could run back in to help their friends, several bullets ripped through their heads like confetti. As the recruits bodies dropped to the ground dead, their killers stepped out of the forest area. They all wore White Masks.

White Mask:"Begin our cleansing." One of them said to the others with a sadistic smile behind the mask. The terrorists then split up and began to hunt for survivors.

Meanwhile, the party that had went to search the armory found a dead end of flaming wreckage. They regrouped and headed for the dorms central lounge. The rendezvous for injured, surviving, and defending personnel.

Doc:"I need some antiseptic!" The French operator barked, as he treated an injured's wound. Around him were dozens of other recruits all sustaining injuries. Among them were operators as well.

Frost was holding an unconscious Buck's hand. He had bandages wrapped around his head that was already red from blood. Beside her was Kapkan guarding a passage way. He had a grim expression on his face. The Canadian male was in critical condition.

Twitch was crying while trying to treat Echo's wounds. He had shielded her from the following explosions. He took tons shrapnel to the back to protect his girlfriend. If he survived, there would be the chance he could never walk again.

Vigil carried a limp Dokkaebi in his arms. His mask was off, and his face displayed agony. He screamed for aid, but the medics were all overbooked with the rest injured. Dokkaebi had a growing red spot on her chest. A trail of blood followed where Vigil came from.

Mira and Tachanka were setting up fortifications. They had to distract themselves from the disaster among their own to keep calm. Otherwise, they would be shutting down like the others.

Finka and Bandit aided the injured by subduing their pain. Their methods were unorthodox, but lives were at stake. They will have to worry about the side effects later.

Thermite was lying still next to Hibana. His left arm was missing, while Hibana had a cloth draped over her right leg. The two had been caught in one of the explosions. They were one of the lucky ones.

The other operators were standing guard or helping treat the injured. Then there was Phantom, Ying, Mute, Caveira, Ela, Valkyrie, Ash, and IQ. They were missing at the moment.

Zofia:"Where is my sister?!" She screamed with a mix of panic and anger. Suddenly, several of the unaccounted operators showed up. They all were battered, covered in grime, and suffering from smoke inhalation, but alive. Zofia ran over to her younger sister, and the two embraced each other tightly.

Zofia:"I was worried about you." She stated in relief and tears running down her face. Ela nodded in agreement, but had a troubled expression.

Ela:"Me too, but we have more important manners. Where's Six?" She questioned.

Thatcher:"She's dead." He stated bluntly. Everyone went silent. Their leader has fallen during the time of crisis. However, there was no time to mourn. They had to survive, and focus on a certain objective.

Ela:"We'll deal with that later. Right now, we have a big problem." She changed the topic with a strained tone and gestured to IQ. Everyone looked at the German blonde in confusion.

Zofia:"That's just Monika." She stated in confusion. IQ looked at everyone grimly.

IQ:"I'm pregnant." She announced. This made Zofia's jaw drop in shock, and baffled everyone else. Out of all the times to find out.

Zofia:"Um-uh. Congratulations. Who's is it?" She questioned. Everyone shot her a glare. It was obvious. The countless nights of procreation.

Thatcher:"Hate to break up your moment, but we have a foolin war going on! Now lets get your bum out of here!" He shouted and waved for them to go. This surprised the group.

IQ:"But I can't just leave you guys-" She was cut off by Zofia.

Zofia:"You have someone more important to take care right now." She said sternly. IQ didn't look convinced yet. Thatcher then smirked.

Thatcher:"I've been fighting longer than you've been alive. We'll cover your escape." He assured. He then looked at Mute sternly.

Thatcher:"I'm leaving the responsibility to you, kid." He said in a grim tone. Mute was silent, but saluted before joining IQ.

Capitao:"Good luck, Tiana." He wished her the best. Caveira nodded silently.

Blackbeard:"Remember you're training." He reminded the blonde SEAL.

Valkyrie:"You know it." She loaded her deagle.

Zofia:"Protect her, and come back safe." She said in a shaky tone to her younger sister. Ela nodded and readied her weapon.

IQ:"No! You guys should stay and-"

Ash:"Let's go!" She didn't allow IQ to protest any further and pushed her off. After Ash, IQ, Ela, Valkyrie, Mute, and Caveira departed to save the unborn child, Ying and Phantom showed up. They rolled in metal crates.

Phantom:"I've come bearing gifts." He announced and tore open a lid. Inside was an array of weapons. Anyone who could fight grabbed one and readied for an assault. Once everyone was locked and loaded, Thatcher stood in front of the group.

Thatcher:"Today is our darkest hour in Rainbow history. The enemy has come to our soil and taken the lives of our comrades. However, we won't let that stand. They started the fight, we'll finish it. We will take revenge on those who've wronged us. Who are we?!" He gave his speech in a tone full of determination.

Everyone:"Rainbow!" They shouted in unison and raised their weapons into the air.

Meanwhile....

Ash:"Keep going!" She urged on her pregnant friend to keep running.

Behind the group of six was the burning Rainbow base. It was a complete disaster and blindside attack. They couldn't have a moment of silence for their fallen comrades and leader. Much less, rescue any survivors from the explosions.

However, IQ continued running for her baby's sake, and everyone's sacrifice. Everyone was silently praying for the well-being of their comrades while scanning the area for hostiles.

Ash:"Any sign of hostiles?" She radioed in.

Ela:"Negative. It's all clear ahead." She reported and continued scouting. Ash helped IQ over a large boulder, and the two continued running.

Ela was to scout ahead, while Mute and Valkyrie guarded their rear. Caveira and Ash would help IQ in case she needed help. Things were going smoothly, until-

Valkyrie:"Contact!" She yelled and began firing upon the enemy. IQ and Ash began to run quicker, while Caveira went to aid the British and American.

Mute and Valkyrie were pinned under heavy LMG gunfire. The two had been ambushed, and now currently hiding uphill behind the tree trunks. Their position was good, but the enemy firepower was too great. The then SAS operator then sprayed gunfire and took out several hostiles, but even more replaced the ones he killed.

Valkyrie:"We can't keep this up!" She notified and hid behind a tree beside her British teammate. Mute remained silent in thought before ripping off his mask. The blonde looked at him in confusion. Why was he doing that mid battle?

Valkyrie:"What are you doing?" She questioned worriedly. Mute stared at Valkyrie sadly before speaking.

Mute:"You're right. We can't keep this up, but I can." He stated in a dire tone, as he grabbed Valkyrie. Before she could react, he tossed her downhill and bullets riddled his body. The blonde rolled down the hill before coming to a stop. She then looked up to see Mute sitting behind the tree bleeding out, as the White Masks approached him.

Mute:"Tell Tiana that I love her..." He muttered for Valkyrie to hear. Her eyes widened in horror at what he was about to do.

Valkyrie:"Mark, NO-"

Once the White Masks stepped into range, he dialed a button on the phone. The small area lit up with explosions that took the operator's life, and the terrorists along with him.

Valkyrie covered her mouth in shock and to prevent screaming. Suddenly, coming out of the brush was Caveira. She looked around frantically before turning to the American blonde.

Caveira:"Where's Mute?" She questioned. Valkyrie faced the Brazilian slowly. Out of patience, Caveira tackled Valkyrie down to the ground and placed her knife against her throat.

Caveira:"Talk! Where's Mark!" She screamed. Valkyrie began crying and spoke.

Valkyrie:"H-He sacrificed himself to take out the terrorists..." She choked out. Caveira began shaking uncontrollably before stumbling back. She then fell to her knees and began screaming from trauma.

Caveira:"No! No! You're lying!" She cried out while clawing at her head. Before the two could do anything, both of their heads were met with the butt of rifle stocks.

The cries of loss rang in the air, and the three women that ran ahead, heard. Ela had regrouped with Ash and IQ. She was stricken with worry, but had to focus on her task.

IQ:"Are they okay?" She asked exhausted. Ela didn't respond at first, but looked at IQ with a comforting expression.

Ela:"I'm sure they're heading our way. Let's just keep moving." She lied in a strained tone. However, they only took a few steps before a bullet ripped through the Polish operator's thigh.

Ash/IQ:"Ela!" They screamed in unison. Ela cried out in pain and fell to the ground. IQ then dragged her into cover, while Ash began gunning the area the gunshot cane from.

Ash:"This is not good. There's a sniper out there." She hissed with concern. Ela was gritting her teeth while applying pressure to her wound. IQ began to hyperventilate.

IQ:"What are we going to do?" She questioned anxiously. Ash began to peek over her cover, but a bullet hit right where she was about to peer out from. The redhead ducked back and then examined her situation.

Ela was down and was not going to be moving. There was a sniper watching their every move. IQ had to escape. There was only one choice. She then grabbed IQ by the shoulders and looked into her eyes.

Ash:"You have to go on without us." She announced grimly. IQ's eyes widened with disbelief. She then began shaking her head frantically.

IQ:"No! You can't! I'm not going to-"

Ela:"Please, Monika. It's the only way." She agreed reluctantly. IQ had tears running down her face. All of then did.

Ash:"I know its hard, but you have to." She struggled to not break. IQ sniffled and stared silently.

Ash began explaining the plan. Ela was provide suppressing fire, while Ash ran off as a decoy. While the commotion is going on, IQ would sneak off. It wasn't a good plan, but the best they could come up with in this situation.

Ela:"GO!" She ordered snd began shooting in the general direction of the sniper's location. Ash then sprinted off in a random direction, while IQ silently crept away in another.

IQ:'I'm sorry...' She wiped away her tears and kept running. She won't let her friends sacrifices be in vain. However, she hoped that they will not end us as such.

Timeskip brought to you by chibi (Y/n) returning frag grenades to chibi IQ....

A dozen men wearing White Masks stood in a circle. They were armed with heavy weapons and aimed at the center. In the center of the circle was Ash. She was bleeding out from her abdomen, but was still conscious.

That's when a man with a custom 1911 in hand approached the redhead. He flicked his cigarette away before standing before the FBI operator. Even though he had a mask on, it was obvious that he was upset.

???:"Where is she?" He demanded angrily. Ash shrugged and spoke.

Ash:"I don't know what you're talking about." She lied. The man sighed and kicked Ash across the face. She cried out in pain and face planted on the ground.

???:"I won't ask again. Where's IQ?" He demanded in an angrier tone. Ash slowly sat back up. This time, she spit blood onto the man's clothes and smirked.

Ash:"She's long gone." She replied smugly. The interrogator sighed waved his hand in the air.

???:"Keep searching for the German blonde. She can't get very far in her state." He ordered, and most of the men departed to search for IQ. Then one of the White Masks approached the interrogator.

White Mask:"What about her?" He questioned and pointed at Ash. The interrogator glanced at Ash before punching her in the face. She fell limp on the found, and the man pulled back his bloodied fist.

??!:"Put her with the others. Or what's left of them, at least." He stated in annoyance. Suddenly, his phone rang, and the man answered the call.

???:"Have you acquired both targets yet?" The interrogator's boss wanted an update.

???:"One of two, sir. However, the last one will be in our grasp soon." He reported. The boss hummed in thought before speaking again.

???:"What about the survivors?" The boss questioned. The interrogator grinned sadistically.

???:"We have plenty to use as bargaining chips." He answered and stared at a bloody mask with a single hole in the middle he collected from the attack.

Timeskip brought to you by chibi (Y/n) talking to chibi Mute....

(Y/n) POV:

Bridge:"Explain to me, how did you manage to get a harem, when I couldn't even get a single girlfriend." He requested in disbelief. His teammates began chuckling at his misfortune.

Juan:"Maybe if you actually grow some cohones." He joked and nudged Bridge in the arm. Slav shook his head.

Slav:"No. The way is vodka." He stated drunkenly and took another swig. Then came Gus.

Gus:"What about listening when a girl talks and telling her she's beautiful without make up?" The male suggested. The passenger cabin went silent, while Washington looked touched. However, the other men began laughing hysterically.

Juan:"Right." He said sarcastically.

Slav:"That's a good one." He chortled.

Bridge:"I think you should play the quiet game, Gus." He said wincing. Washington humphed and crossed her arms.

Washingtons:"Idiots..." She muttered in irritation. I shook my head, and couldn't help but agree.

"Anyways, my answer is that I protected Eliza and Monika all the time. Not to mention, seemingly die multiple times." I admitted the last part in slight embarrassment. Washington nodded in agreement.

Washington:"Yeah. You're the talk in the barracks. The super soldier who comes back to life each time he dies." She revealed, which surprised me. I didn't think my news would reach that far.

After that conversation, I decided to let my team be. My mind was elsewhere at the moment. Mainly of what was going on with IQ. It worried me to see her like that, and the strange things going on with her.

'She's requested medical leave, has abdominal pain, cravings, and random emotions. Could it be?' I thought of the ridiculous possibility. However, I couldn't dwell on it because Washington tapped on my shoulder. She had a terrified expression on her face.

Washington:"You need to see this." She stated fearfully. I looked at her slightly confused, until she pointed outside of the window. My heart stopped at that moment.

Where Rainbow base was, was now just a burned down complex. There were areas that have been leveled, that once had buildings. Remnants of fire could be seen from the air because of the massive scorch marks.

Bridge:"What the hell happened?" He questioned in disbelief. I wanted to know too, but something suddenly popped into my mind. I began to panic.

'Eliza! Monika!' I ran over to the pilot and told him to hurry. We landed quickly, and I immediately booked it out of the airway.

'Please be okay. Please be okay.' I kept repeating inside of my head. Once I arrived at the destruction zone, I began searching.

I clawed my way through fallen beams and rubble cement. No protection or anything. The lives of the people I loved were all that ran through my mind. What didn't help was that I found bodies of recruits I trained myself.

"No....no...why?" I questioned in panic. Suddenly, my cellphone began ringing. I quickly fumbled it out to see Ash's number. Relief spread throughout my body.

"Thank god." I whispered in relief and answered the phone.

"Eliza! Where are you-"

???:"I'm sorry, but I am not your girlfriend." Someone else answered. My eyes widened, and I grit my teeth.

"Where is she?" I demanded in an angry tone. I was met with a chuckle on the other end of the line.

???:"Straight to the point. That's what I like about you. At least liked." He replied calmly.

"Enough games! Where is Eliza and Monika?! Where are my friends?!" I demanded with my rage building. The line was silent for a bit, until I heard a familiar voice.

Ash:"(Y/n)?" I heard my girlfriend call out in a weak tone. My mood changed to worry when I heard her voice. She sounded like me when I had been tortured.

"Eliza! It's me, (Y/n). Are you alright?" I questioned worriedly.

Ash:"Better now, that I heard your voice." She croaked and began coughing.

"Me too." I muttered. Then I remembered about IQ.

"Is Monika there with you?" I asked with worry. Suddenly, the man from earlier interrupted.

???:"Sorry to interrupt your touching reunion, but we have important matters to discuss." He stated sternly. I clenched my fists tightly.

"If you even breathed on her, I'll make death seem like a blessing from God for you." I threatened.

???:"I may have entertained myself for a bit, but that's not the point. Aren't you worried about the fate of the rest of your comrades, or just your girlfriends?" He was playing a dangerous games.

"Where are they? Where's Monika?!" I screamed.

???:"I have them right here, and you're only getting them back if you do as I say." He trapped me in a corner. From what I know, this was a definite trap. However, he had the cards in his hand right now, and I was going to have to play along.

"I will, if you show me that everyone is okay." I stood firm. An email notification went off, and I checked it. It was a picture of all the Team Rainbow members tied up and injured. However, there were several people missing.

"Where's Monika? Where's everyone else?" I demanded.

???:"Oh, the German blonde, she's currently playing a fox hunt with my men. As for your other friends, let's just say their in a better place." He stated smugly. I remained silent with mixed emotions.

"I'm listening." I gave in to his demands.

???:"For starters, you will effectively leave what remains of Team Rainbow and join the White Masks." He listed off. I waited for him to finish.

???:"Finally, the best part. You're going to attack the U.N. council."

A/n: Okay. This is the prt where I apologize and stand firm on my decisions.

Tell me what you liked or disliked.

Leave your hate here.
