Who Got the Edge
MSMC vs TMP: Both submachine guns get the edge. The MSMC has a greater barrel length than the TMP (300mm compared to the TMP's barrel length of 130mm) and longer firing range (200 to 300 m, compared to the TMP's firing range of 100 m), but the TMP has a higher fire rate (850 to 900 rounds a minute, compared to the MSMC's firing rate of 650 rounds), and lesser weight when unloaded (2.9 lbs compared to the MSMC's unloaded weight of 2.98 lbs).

INSAS vs AUG: The AUG gets the edge. It has a greater barrel length (508mm compared to the INSAS's barrel length of 464mm), ammo capacity (the AUG can take 30 or 42 round clips, while the INSAS can only take 20 or 30 round clips), and firing range (450 to 500 m, compared to the INSAS's firing range of 200 to 300 m). The only thing that both rifles have in common is their rate of fire (650 rounds a minute).

Dragunov vs SSG04: The Dragunov gets the edge. It has a greater barrel length (620mm compared to the SSG04's barrel length of 600mm), greater shooting distance (can effectively shoot up to 800m, and can shoot as far as 1,300m with a scope attached), and is an automatic weapon, where as the SSG04 is a bolt action weapon.

Kukri vs Recon 1: The Kukri gets the edge. It is a much longer blade than the Recon 1, and can bludgeon as well as slash and stab.

Setup
London, England. February 7, 2011. A day that would go down in the country's history.

It was on this day that a local political celibration was taking place, where the local parliment representative, John Swinehall, had gained the popular vote. Fearing that he may become a target for assassination during this time, he called in a favor to the Indian embassy for some protection. In just a short amount of time, 5 Gurkha soldiers were sent in to protect the representative. Codenamed Shining Blade, these soldiers would protect anyone, right down to their last breath.

It was a cold, rainy day in London Park, but that didn't stop the celebration. John Swinehall was considered to be revolutionary in thought & deed, and because of this, the turnout was impressive. Some tables with food & drink were placed to keep the guests busy, while the stage was getting finished for Mr. Swinehall so he could deliver a speech. In the meantime, the Shining Blade soldiers were busy scanning the area, looking for someone or something out of the ordinary. After 5 minutes, they couldn't find anything that wasn't supposed to be there.

The stage was set, and Mr. Swinehall walked up to the podem to deliver his speech. "I hope that I don't sound too hoarse today." he said. "My voice is a little off since my cold last week."

Everybody that was there turned around. The Shining Blade soldiers were on stage to keep sure that nobody in the crowd would charge the stage. Strangely enough, their presence didn't seem to frighten anyone that was there.

"Ladies & Gentlemen, I known I'm new to politics. The pundints say that I'm inexperienced, and to an extent, that is true. Despite the negativity, I will work for you!"

Everybody in the crowd clapped and cheered. The Shining Blade soldier on the stage were still stoic, not showing any form of emotion.

"It is time to remove the corruption that plagues Parliment. It is time, like U.S. President Barack Obama says, to bring change to our country. It is time too..."

Before Mr. Swinehall could finish, a bang sound came through the park. A moment later, a bullet had hit the Parliment representative in the shoulder, send him into the stage floor. The Shining Blade soldier immediately rushed to the representative side to protect him. Everybody immediately started panicking, and began scrambling out of the park in droves. As the people were leaving, one of the Shining Blade Gurkha noticed an individual holding a small gun. A TMP Submachine Gun, to be more exact.

This individual began to raise the gun to fire it, but one of the Gurkha soldiers raised his INSAS Assault Rifle, and fired 3 bullets. Two of them hit the target in the chest, and the third bullet handed right square between the target's eyes. The submachine gun fell to the ground first, then the lifeless body fell second.

Gurkha: 5/EKO Cobra: 4

The Shining Blade soldiers immediately got Mr. Swinehall to his feet, and proceeded to escort him out of the park. He was able to wark normally, but was grasphing his wounded shoulder. Four Gurkha soldiers surrounded him: two in the front, and two in the back. A fifth Shining Blade soldier was way in the back. Clenching his Dragunov, he scanned the area ahead and behind his commrades to make sure that noone would try anything stupid.

A minute later, and the Shining Blade soldiers, along with Mr. Swinehall, reached the Truck in which the Gurkha soldiers arrived in. Mr. Swinehall, along with two Gurkha soldiers, sat in the backseat. Another Gurkha soldier got into the driver seat, and just as the other one was about to get into the front passager seat, a loud bang rang through the air. A second later, and the soldier's head exploded, sending blood & brain all over the vehicle.

Gurkha: 4/EKO Cobra: 4

The soldier with the Dragunov immediately turned around in the direction the bang came from. Looking for a sign, he spotted a flash from upon a watertower located on an apartment complex. He looked into the Dragunov's scope, and spotted the shooter. He pulled the trigger, and a bullet went flying. A moment later, and he saw the body fall off of the watertower.

Gurkha: 4/EKO Cobra: 3

The Gurkha sniper quickly ran to the passenger seat in the front, pausing only for a moment to give his comrade some respectful silence. He closed the door, and buckled in. The driver pressed his foot on the gas, and they flew like a bolt of lightning out of a cloud.

Minutes later, and they were on the busy streets of London. Despite Mr. Swinehill stable condition, they were rushing towards the nearest hospital. One of the Gurkha soldiers, curious as to who would shoot a newly elected political figure, began asking Mr. Swinehill some questions.

"Mr. Swinehill" the soldier said "why would anyone attempt to take your life?"

"Probably a couple members on the Parliment." Mr. Swinehill responded. "Given the changes I was trying to bring to the table, I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to set me up as a terrorist or something."

The Gurkha soldier knodded.

"Turn down this alleyway." Mr Swinehill said, pointing towards an alleyway on the right side of the street. "It's much quicker if we go to the hospital this way."

The driver responded, and immediately made a sharp right turn down the alleyway. Along their drive, they were running into trashbags, garbige cans, and other pieces of scrap that was tossed aside. They were wissing through the alleyway, when the sight of a white van blocked their path. The driver immediately stepped of the break, and the truck came to a screeching halt. When they finally stopped, the van's door opened up, and two men dressed in kevlar vests and helmets came out, weilding AUG Assault Rifles. The driver came out of the van holding a TMP, much like the individual at the park. They immediately opened fire on the truck, just as Mr. Swinehill and the rest of the Shining Blade soldiers began unbuckling. Mr. Swinehill and the two Gurkha soldiers got out safely, but the two in the front didn't stand a chance, and a hail of bullets came through the front window, killing them almost instantly.

Gurkha: 2/EKO Cobra: 3

The two remaining Shining Blade soldiers immediately pushed Mr. Swinehill into a pile of trastbag to avoid get hit by a stray bullet. The two Gurkhas immediately returned fire, one taking careful shots with his INSAS Assault Rifle, while the other sprayed bullets from his MSMC Submachine Gun. A couple hits managed to hand right square in one of the assailant's chest, punching a chunk of flesh right out.

Gurkha: 2/EKO Cobra: 2

The two attackers quickly looked back at their dead comrade, then immediately retured fire onto Mr. Swinehill and the two remaining Gurkha soldiers. The fight continued on, until the soldier with the MSMC Submachine Gun ran out of ammo. Tossing his gun to the side, he drew his Kukri Dagger, the most sacred weapon to a Gurkha. He immediately charged the two assailants, while the other Shining Blade soldier got Mr. Swinehill up to his feet, and ran into an abandoned office building. As they got in, a few more gunshots were heard, signaling to Mr. Swinehill that the Shining Blade Gurkha with him was the last one alive.

They proceeded through the dusty corridors, until they reached a small office. The Gurkha soldier could hear the door slam open right behind them, and he knew he had to act fast. "Mr. Swinehill." he said. "Take my rifle. You know how to shoot a gun, right?"

Mr. Swinehill nodded. "What are you going to do without a gun?" he asked.

The Gurkha soldier drew his Kukri dagger, gripping it tightly. "This is what I'm going to do." the soldier said, flashing the blade in front of the representative's eyes. He closed the door, and went after his targets.

A second later, and he was in what was surely the IT room. There were dustly cubicles all over the place, and sunlight was leaking through the boarded windows. He hid inside the cubicle closest to him when he heard a door at the other end of the room opened up. He crept from the cubicle's side and saw one of the assailants walk into the room, while the other went back down the flight of stairs. The sight of the AUG caused the Shining Blade soldier to think more stealthily, and crept back into the cubicle. He waited until his attacked got close, and he lept out at him. He knocked his attacker's gun out of his hands. He then slashed at his attacker's chest, then stabbed him right through the throat.

Gurkha: 1/EKO Cobra: 1

He pulled his Kukri out of his attacker's neck, then shoved the body to the floor. As the corpse fell to the ground, he could hear a voice over the radio, speaking in a  panick. It was the other assailant, who was discovering that his comrade had just been killed.

The Gurkha soldier then proceeded back towards the office where he placed Mr. Swinehill. He hurried back, and was at the end of the hallway, when he noticed the last assailant trying to kick the door down. Determined to not let his charge be killed, the Gurkha Soldier charged the attacked with his Kukri held high. He was within closing distance, when his attacked shot him right in the stomach, causing him to trip, dropping his blade in the process.

He held the wound tightly as to not lose much blood, all the while watching his attacker walk towards him. He placed his AUG onto his back, then drew out a small Recon 1 Knife. This is not how this Gurkha soldier wanted to go. He wanted to die while standing on his two feet, killing his enemies. He assailant was just about on top of him, when a long bang traveled through the hallway. A bullet knocked the Recon 1 Knife out of the attackers hand, and a second bang sent a bullet through the back of his head.

The Gurkha soldier got up to his feet, all the while clutching the bullet wound on his stomach. He walked over to Mr. Swinehill, who still had the INSAS Assault Rifle aimed at the now dead corpse of the attacker. He lowered the gun when the Gurkha soldier arrived at his side.

"Told you I knew how to fire a gun." Mr. Swinehill said.
