Their orders were clear. Collapse the tunnels in the sewers so the Resistance couldn't use them anymore to travel the city. If lizards or other mutations got in the way then they were to be eliminated with extreme prejudice. Liquid led a group of fifteen armed Vulture soldiers into the sewers with explosives. They began covering the tunnels that connected to Sector Seven, Six, and Eight, as Liquid oversaw the soldiers movement with his arms folded. This was for the betterment of the Crimson Vulture.
This was for the betterment of Isafaro.

The soldiers entered the sewers with C4 explosives on their persons and began covering the walls with them. They were told not to collapse the tunnels until they were out of the sewers so they wouldn't get trapped within its clutches. They were aware and ready for resistance from the various mutations that lived in the sewers. They didn't question why so many mutants were in the sewers from Isafaro's research and development. It wasn't their place to question anything Isafaro did.
"The explosives have been placed in Sector Seven tunnels, sir!"

Callisto watched from afar as the Vulture soldiers filled their tunnels with C4. As she feared the Crimson Vulture was now among them, and all thanks to the upper worlders in the Isafaro Resistance for using their home as a means of travel. Callisto wouldn't allow the Crimson Vulture to accomplish their missoin, so she sent psychics to invade their minds and drive them into insanity. With the muscle staying behind ready to strike if for some reason the mental attack failed.
"Morlocks, attack!"
The fight for the sewers have officially begun.

Liquid Snake "Good work. Now move on to the other sectors." Soon after giving those orders, Liquid felt an assault on his mind. Unfortunately for the attackers, Liquid had a strong mental blockade from years of training his mind to fend off mental attacks such as these. He sensed that his soldiers would be facing the same trials and chose to speak to them. Liquid Snake "Listen to me! Remember your training. You are the Crimson Vulture. You are Isafaro. One nation, one purpose. You will not be defeated by these 'mutants' you will rise to the occasion and fight! Pick up your weapons and fire at the enemy!" The Morlocks wouldn't receive an easy victory on this day.

Some of the soldiers went insane from the mental attack, while others listened to the words of their Commander and fought the mental strikes against their minds. They held up their fully automatic assault rifles and open fire on the Morlocks who had appeared before them. Using their auto-lock feature to ensure that evading was neigh impossible. They wouldn't allow these mutants to cause insanity to their brothers in arms without showing them what the cost was.

The Vulture soldiers weren't going down without a fight, and the blond haired man wasn't phased at all by the mental strikes of her soldiers. It was time to use brute force. As her psychics were cut down soldiers with superhuman strength and endurance charged the Vulture soldiers looking to tear them apart limb from limb. Callisto herself stayed hidden for now, watching her soldiers enter the front lines of the battle.

Liquid Snake "Do you think brute force will be enough?" Liquid took off his coat and wrestled one of the Morlocks to the ground with wits and sheer force of will. He may not have been stronger than the Morlock, but he was smarter and had more mental as well as physical conditioning thanks to Isafaro military training to wrestle the Morlock to the ground. Strangling him with his arms and cutting off the oxygen to the brain enough to kill him. Liquid then stood up and looked over to the Vulture soldiers now fighting off the rest of the Morlocks with superior strength to them. Liquid Snake "Anyone who interferes with the work of the Crimson Vulture will be considered an enemy of the state. Let them know the cost." Liquid closed his hand into a fist. He was ready for a fight.

Some of the Vulture soldiers were torn apart while others unloaded more bullets from their rifles to ward off the attack by the super soldiers of the Morlocks. When the Morlocks got too close they activated their chainsaw attachment and sliced and diced them into pieces to keep from being killed. They were motivated by the words of Liquid Snake as they fought through the Morlocks and kept up a wall of defense to protect their Commander.

Among the Morlocks with superhuman strength was Sunder. Otherwise known as Mark Hallett. A bald headed man with great strength and durability. He withstood the bullets from the soldiers' rifles and broke his way through the soldiers to Liquid himself. Looking to wrestle him to the ground like Liquid did his fallen comrade.
Another to enter the fight was Erg. A young man with an eye patch. Out of his bad eye came an electric optic blast looking to knock some of the soldiers backwards and kill them. Callisto herself remained hidden for now. Waiting for the perfect time to strike.

Liquid tightened both his hands and wrestled with Sunder. He was strong, but Liquid wouldn't go down without a fight. He punched and kicked at the man in various points of the body to weaken him. Even if he had superior strength and durability, everyone had their limit. Liquid kicked off the man and raised a rifle from his coat and fired at the man's chest with armor piercing bullets.
Nothing said he had to fight fair.

The soldiers' numbers were few and far between now. They banded together and fought the Morlocks still on the frontlines. Among them was a man with an eye patch firing optic blasts from his bad eye ball. They dodged the blast and open fire with their rifles on the man to take him out. Making good use of their auto-targeting feature and radar to detect who else was in the area. They saw one dot that was hiding and knew they'd have to search and destroy once they made it pass the people on the frontlines.
"For Isafaro!"

Sunder held up his arms into an X formation and withstood the bullets from Liquid's rifle.
"Coward!" Sunder yelled as he charged Liquid. Cutting the space between them quickly and looking to disarm Liquid and go back to wrestling him to the ground.
Erg was caught by the bullets and fell down to the ground bleeding. It was enough to bring Callisto out of hiding to check on her fallen comrade as more Morlocks joined the fight. Some with pole arms, others with handguns they found on the surface, and others using their powers against the Vulture men. They all charged at the Vulture soldiers while Callisto tended to the injured.
"I'm sorry, Callisto," said Erg. He breathed his last and Callisto pounded the ground with her fist.
"NO!"
Callisto drew her knife and charged the Vulture soldiers looking to cut them down to size.

Liquid Snake "There are no rules in war. Those who cling to honor will soon be dead." Liquid exchanged the rifle for a combat knife and plunged it into the heart of Sunder once he got close enough to wrestle with him again. Liquid Snake "One should be weary of getting close to an enemy. Super powers or not." Liquid stared Sunder right in the eyes as he stabbed him. He wanted to make sure the Morlock knew who he was. He was Liquid Snake, and he was a proud member of the Crimson Vulture. Not one to go down in a fight without some more thought backed behind the action.

The Isafaro soldiers continued to fire at the Morlocks. There were only five Vulture troops now, but they wouldn't go down easily. They saw Callisto entered the fray and figured that this must have been the one they saw on their radar earlier. As she was charging with a knife, they open fire with their auto-targeting ammunition knowing it wasn't wise to bring a knife to a gun fight.

Sunder fell to his death just as Callisto was hit by a hail of bullets and bloodied. Callisto fell to the ground and looked up as more of her people were being butchered by the Crimson Vulture. With the last of her breath, Callisto drew a detonator and activated it. Setting off a booby trap further away from the Vulture troops, but it wasn't to kill the Vulture. It was to lure an army of mutated lizards to their area to kill them. The fight was only just beginning.
And Callisto breathed her last.
