On hearing the bad news, the attacking party decides to their last resort plan. Nate, his family and the Valkyrie team regroup at the conference room. Colonel Petrovich greets Nate, " Welcome back, my friend." He then recognizes Shiori and the two children,
" Oh, you! And Nate's kids. It's been a while, hasn't it?"
Shiori is startled and asks Nate sternly, " What is he doing here?"
" Relax, he's on our side. He's been with me since I entered this place."
" She's surprised, Colonel. Please understand her response. She just endured life threatening experience. I know she's survived capture in Chechnya before but this time's different. She's with kids."
Colonel Petrovich smiles, " Let's defend this place."
" For Nikolai." Says Nate.
" For all of us." Replies Colonel Petrovich.
As planned, the hostages including Nate's family are taken into barricaded parking lot in basement under guard of one Spetsnaz and two Valkyrie ninjas. Three surviving hotel security guard volunteer themselves to add defender numbers.
" Remember, Shiori, you are not a legal combatant. Only shoot when you defend yourself and kids. Here.. use mine."
" Daddy, why do you go again?" Asks Alyson.
" Daddy have to go up there to keep the bad guys away from you all."
" Daddy will you come back again?" Asks Brandon.
" I will."
As the defenders prepare their defense by going to their assigned positions and piled up captured weapons and ammunitions, the hotel is surrounded by militia on the streets. The hotel's defense are divided into three. On the hotel's front area, Alexey and Sam with two security guards are manning the main defense with a team of one Spetsnaz privates and four ninjas including a machine gunner. Two other ninjas with one security guard are guarding the stairways to prevent militia on upper floors to get on below levels. While the other three and two Spetsnaz are guarding the hotel's second entrance at the opposite of the main entrance. The combined sniper and anti tank units are concealed on their positions inside a store in front of the hotel's front entrance, where Alexey and Sam's units defend the building.
At 03:01, the militia begins to advance through the hotel's wide yard. When they have reached half of the yard, Nate and Colonel Petrovich issue orders, "Open fire!" The sudden gunfires of Bizon smg, AK rifles and PKP 6P41 machine gun from a deli's and dining room's windows sweep several frontier militia. The surprised insurgents are immediately pushed back to the street. The situation soon grows into firefights. Suddenly, a report comes to Nate.
" Sir! RPG teams are coming to your way. What's my order?" Asks the sniper ninja.
" Sniper, shoot the RPG carriers and machine gunners!"
" Snaiper!, shoot the RPG launchers and machine gunners!" Order Colonel petrovich.
RPG teams are preparing themselves behind concretes and cars on the street, just when they are about to shoot, their suddenly launchers fall to ground. Their machine gun carriers also collapse to ground. They surprise the attackers who have no idea where the sniper attacks come from and disperse them into chaos. The snipers' shooting continue until one militia spot them.
" It's them! On that roof!"
" We've been spotted! Take cover!!" Shouts the sniper ninja.
Soon some of the firepower are diverted to the building where the sniper ninjas and Spetsnaz are.
" Sir, we've been compromised! Unable to give fire support!" Shouts the ninja. A militia manages to enter the rooftop but immediately shot by the ninja's silenced FN Five Seven sidearm.
" Sir, the enemy has breache our perimeter. What's my order?"
Nate passes order to him, " Defend yourself with everything you got. We'll come to you once when the enemy's pushed back!"
" Understood, sir! Defend ourselves!!" Shouts the ninja to his allies.
The three soldiers shoot every militia who shows up. Suddenly, a grenade is thrown from floor below and lands near the Spetsnaz.
" Grenade!! Grenade!! Take cover!" Shouts the Spetsnaz.
It explodes. Dazed, the two ninjas still manage to kill several advancing insurgents. " Grigory! Are you alright?" Asks the ninja. His question goes unanswered. Grigory stays quiet. Blood drenches from his back. He dies. " Grigory! Noo!!" The ninja is back to the firefight shoots at the militia. Three gunshots hits the ninja who carries anti tank weapon, incapacitating him mortally. " Jackson!! No!" Shouts the sniper ninja. A militia screaming comes at him with a bayonet fitted rifle but he collapses shot by Jackson's fire. " Wait here, Jackson.." Hector the ninja draws his sword and charges at the advancing militia while screaming at the top of his voice. He slashes and impales several militia on their tracks and runs toward a crowd of militia swinging his sword at them. The outnumbering militia, unprepared, are sent into chaos by Hector's frantic sword swinging that in such close range killing some of them instantly. A militia suddenly throws a grenade on the crowd and its blast ends the fighting on the building.
Abdullah Ghoulam, frustated, orders all of his men to swarm the hotel from all direction. He himslef leads them. Numerous armed men in kaffiyeh and civilian outfit charge at the hotel. " Throw all your grenades then retreat!!" Orders Nate. The ninjas and the Spetsnaz threw all explosives they have to the outside and prepare themselves to retreat. The explosions kill and wound many advancing insurgents and buy time for the defenders to regroup. " Sam! Set the Tag - Nine, now!" Orders Nate. Sam gets a mortar sized special EMP grenades and throws it inside the conference room after activates the grenade. The grenades' blast sends the hotel into total blackout and stops all guns from being able to fire. The ninjas and Spetsnaz regroup themselves at the lobby where the entrance to the sealed basement parking lot is. The ninjas and Spetsnaz get their melee weapons. Ninja swords, tanto, a sickle, shaska sabers and combat knives.
" Hand to hand combat, Colonel." Says Nate.
" I've been waiting for this, my friend." Replies Colonel Petrovich.
" Alexey!! Get ready! Lead your team!" Shouts Colonel Petrovich.
" Da, Polkovnik!" Answers Alexey
The insurgents continue their advance, they overrun the building's entrances and windows flooding them under darkness. Unbeknownst to them, the ninjas and Spetsnaz crawl between them. Nate rises and shouts, " Now!!" The defenders throws shuriken and fires a crossbow, hitting several insurgents. They quickly use their melee weapons. They slash, stab and hit anyone not of them. The surprised insurgents are sent into chaos but they adapt quickly using their knives and rifle butts. The scene grows into 18th century naval ship boarding melee. Nate, using his pair of ninja sword and kodachi, block and deliver attacks. Colonel Petrovich easily fends off and kill several insurgents with his long saber. The tall and muscular Colonel easily lifts an insurgent and throws him at others. When an insurgent is about to hit Colonel Petrovich, Nate's kodachi is thrown at him.
Nate passes orders through his phone toward the guarding ninja at basement parking lot who carries communication device, " Alamo! I repeat, Alamo!! Drop at the streets. I repeat. At the streets." The ninja calls Private Echelon headquarter nearby. Above them, an UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is flying. Its controllers aim at the hotel's nearby streets and four missiles are launched at them. Bright rays followed by four explosions shake the hotel and throw all fighting sides to walls and floor. Windows broken, doors bashed. Tables and chairs thrown. The hostages scream in panic on the basement. Smoke comes from the four streets and enters the hotel building.
