THE GUN - THE ORIGINAL VERSION
Book 9: Sea War
|
I had seen some old WW2 film about a battle at sea, so decided to make a "The Gun" one just like it, not thinking that naval battles are conducted totally differently in modern times. The ships no longer charge each other blasting away with shells, they just launch a long range missile halfway around the world and blow away a ship that didn't even know they existed. |

Anyway, it starts off with wolf force ships sailing along, they all have a "J" prefix for some reason, some enemy boats appear on the radar, as somebody helpfully shouts "Enemy boats!". They begin to fire their cannons at each other, and a ship of each side is hit. Gunn and some guy are sitting aboard one ship when they get hit. The other guy talks really posh and in a funny way, just like officers from those WW2 films then XD. Some submarines are also sailing along, but don't play much of a part in the battle. Meanwhile a wolf force aircraft carrier launches a plane at the enemy fleet. It fires a "Tow 3" missile, which appears to be guided by a cable, but then the plane is blown up and the cable burns down like a fuse and blows up the missile before it hits the ship. |

Gunn gets on this jet-ski thing and takes off into the battle. Using the machine guns on it he blasts a few crewmembers of an enemy ship, but then a homing torpedo starts to follow him, so he steers towards an enemy ship and jumps off, resulting in it being destroyed. A very fat Stealth Force guy goes "Eet cost us a destroya, but Gunn ees dead!". Meanwhile some wreckage hits a wolf force sub and it sinks, but the crew get out in little escape pod things, launched from the bottom (!) of the sub. Gunn is, however, not dead, he climbs up on another enemy ship (meanwhile a wolf force one sinks), picks up a pistol and kills a few of the crew. Walking into a hallway he meets a guy with a big shotgun who goes "Dvop your weapon meester Gunn", so Gunn goes "Its been done", and the guy then goes "Drop it our your a dead man!", before being kicked and getting his head smashed through the window. Gunn blows away another guy with the shotgun and plants a bomb on one of the shells, before swimming away. |

He picks up The Gun from some floating wreckage and activates the SARBE (a device that tells friendly forces where you are in an emergency, I cant remember what it stands for though, something like "Search And Rescue Beacon"). The ship Gunn was on is obliterated by a huge explosion that just leaves the very bottom of the hull floating. Gunn is picked up and a while later the ship he started out on is fixed, he stands next to the posh guy and sticks a "Kick Me" sticker on him while going "Back to England then". |
