Betrayed

"Base this is delta squad. Do you copy?" said Baird.
"Delta squad this is base, we read you loud and clear, over." They guy on the radio said.
"What is our forecast? Over."
"Umm, sand storm coming toward your position at 50 knots. Over"
"Thank you we will take cover, over and out." The squad started looking for a place to hide. They found a hole and decided to go in. what they saw blew them away.
"An underground mine shaft in the middle of the Mojave desert," said Baird, amazed.
"I'll bet anything this is where the president is," said Marcus.
"Yeah, let's move," said Baird. At that moment there was a gunshot, a slight grunt and Pete fell down dead. Baird furiously fired his gun in the direction the shot had come from. The others soon followed him. Once Baird was sure the killer was dead he stopped shooting.
"Strip all ammunition and U.S. markings from him," said Baird. Marcus and Baird headed out to look for the killer. They found nothing.
" We should head back to the Squad," said Baird. Marcus looked at his radio, no signal.
"We can't contact base," said Marcus. The two headed back to find the squad patiently waiting for them.
"We must keep moving." said Baird. They moved silently along the corridors of
the mineshaft. They kept moving until they came to where the tunnel forked into two other tunnels. All of the sudden a huge massive.....a huge.....a huge.....thing came out of one of the tunnels. It was slobbering everywhere.
"FIRE!" commanded Baird. The entire squad opened fire at the beast. The thing started to back into the tunnel it came out of. When it reemerged it was carrying a large chain whip. It lashed out once and Jack was gone.
"Half fire at the whip, the other half at that thing!" Baird yelled over the loud gunshots. Another lash and Kyle was also gone. Chris had to do something so he climbed on top of the beast and pulled out his knife and started whacking at its hand.
"Chris!" yelled Baird. "Get Off!" Just then there was a loud clank. "OK. Now get Off Now!" commanded Baird. Chris jumped of the beast and landed with a thud. The squad resumed firing until the creature was dead.
"That was intense," said Chris.
"You said it," replied Tim.
"Tim, you take twelve men and go down the tunnel," said Baird pointing toward the tunnel the thing came out of. "Marcus, Chris and I will go down that one. Make contact with us if you find the president. Lets move out" Delta squad 1 (Baird, Marcus, and Chris) walked silently along the dark and lonely mine shaft. There were some weird spiders that crawled along the walls, but no problem there. There was only one thing that creeped them out, and that was a short shout that was instantly silenced.
"That was Tim," said Baird. "It's now up to us to get the President out."
"This is freaky," said Chris.
"There is something living up ahead and it coming straight for us," said Marcus.
"Let's hide," said Baird. "If it is a threat we will kill it." They waited until they saw the president round the corner followed by his captures. Baird fired one shot and the man fell to the ground. Chris ran to free the President but was suddenly stopped. He felt a sharp pain in his chest. He looked down and saw a little trickle of blood. He looked up to see a bald headed guy standing in the shadows. He returned the fire and both of them fell to the ground. Chris crawled to the President and helped him out of the hand cuffs.
"Baird, its all clear," said Marcus, leaping from his hiding place and ran to help Chris.
"There is an opening to the outside down the way I came," said the President.
"Let's go," said Baird hoisting Chris onto his back fireman style. They ran along silently listening tot every sound, waiting for something to scare the crap out of them. They came to a large room with a shaft of light coming through the ceiling. Marco climbed up the ladder first, then the President, then Baird with Chris on his back. Marco was already making contact with base.  
"They're sending a helicopter with a medic to get us out of here," said Marco. In a few minutes the helicopter was to their position. Ever y one was on except Baird. He glanced back and saw a bloody hand coming out of the hole. He rushed over to hole and looked down. To his amazement he saw Kyle.
"Baird? Could you give me a hand?" asked Kyle. Baird reached down and pulled up Kyle's body.
