Description

The story would be like this. Sorry if there is some mistake in grammar or else....

*****
    Marine Security Unit or MSU in short is a coast guards for the city beach, where Pyotr the crocodile currently works at. They are more like a life guard and a Marine combined each other, because they able to do and assist SAR operation while neutralizing armed threat that could happened in coast such like ship hijacking, smuggling or terrorist attack in a quick response while  waiting for reinforcements if needed.

    Being born as a croc enable Pyotr to move fast in water, which put him into an advantage serving as MSU. Even if he brings some equipment along with him, it doesn’t affect his move much at all since he trained hard his body back when he joined the Russian army until now. That ability is useful to find drowned people or executing stealth mission underwater. Partnering with a fellow mongoose guy, they protect the coast with a codename Poseidon


    “HQ to all unit, Sit-Rep, over…”
    “This is Poseidon, No threat, over….”
    “Copy that, out” the voice from the comm radio ended with buzzing noise

    The weather forecast reported that today will be cloudy at the midday with a little possibility that it will be rainy. Well,.. there is some dark cloud from a distance if you say that cloudy. Otherwise, everything seems fine. Fair winds, pretty clear sky, kids playing and girls flirting with rich studs…

    “Hey old man, I’m back!” The base door squeaked open as a person entered inside
    “Ah, do you get my order?
    “Here, A hot ginger tea like you said” He put out a glass from a case
    “Neat, thanks….”

    The mongoose sit next to him, unwrapped his taco and tossed the paper wrap to the bin. While he munched his meal, his eyes keep observing the coast like an eagle. Nothing peculiar but a medium-sized cruise ship heading to the island far away which sparked his curiosity.

    “See that ship over there? “His finger pointed the white ship floating near the island 
    “Ah yes, I guess it is from the hotel from the other side of the city. Maybe the guests of that hotel want to scuba or sightseeing there. I think it's quite common”
    "Man, maybe when I have a time, I’ll try to scuba at there too.”
    “The view is great underwater. Worth to see. I guarantee that you wont regret it…” the croc grinned

    The ship headed to other side of the island, where they could not see it again. After some hours, the ship emerged from behind of the island, heading back to the hotel. But then it slowed down and seemingly stopped near the lighthouse for some time

    “Hm? Looks like something is wrong on that ship” His tone showed his anxiety. His body remain relaxed on the seat, but ready to spring out

    One hour more later, a spark of orange flare and grey smoke flew above the ship simultaneously

    “Ship drowning with armed assault warning?? What the hell?” The mongoose shrieked
    “Looks like they are in a distress.....grab your gear, boy” the croc stood up and went to the armory locker

    Heading to their standard utility jet ski, The HQ sent a broadcast message to all MSU units, including two of them.

“This is HQ to all MSU unit. We got a condition of Herring cruise ship, which is sinking and in an armed assault. Sector B unit, board the ship and check out any passenger remaining and extract them out, secure the ship from hostile and place it a beacon. While sector B unit gather the passenger, Sector C must extract the life boats to the coast and apply first aid to the victims while waiting the medics to come. Be advised, hostile may be blending among the people, stay alert and watch your back. HQ will send air support to aid the rescue. Over”

    "What kind of terror is this?” Both puzzled when hearing the announcement.
    “Mission update, be advised. light storm is approaching. We have a window for the rescue approximately 1 to 2 hours left. HQ out”
    “Wait, it said there is an armed assault in the ship right? How if we get inside and check it out?” said the mongoose as he was preparing the gears of the jetski and checking the ammo reserve in his vest pockets
    The croc nodded, “Ask the HQ” added him short.
    He quickly pressed the intercom button. “HQ this is Poseidon, requesting permission to broad the ship and assist the evac, how copy, over”
    “Permission granted, Out”
    “Old man....It’s showtime” His body seemed really ready for action
    “Make sure you keep yourself alive, fresh one" he grinned for a reply.

 *****

     Just posting my old art that I have done for a long time ago. This one is mainly inspired from army stuffs, some espionage novels, like Tom Clancy's and several FPS shooter games. What do you think?

Anyway, enjoy some army-ish stuff!

Artwork and character : Pyotr Kravchenkov belong to me (The mongoose name will be announced soon!)

Thank you for the compliment! Pretty much I design all of that by my own imagination while referring to some real life references.

And since the mood is still on, let me say in this instance : Happy New Year there, Young-Jacob!
