The knife in the Israeli soldier's chest was pulled out and then the soldier was kicked after Captain Naseer jumped back.A gunshot rang out. The Israeli soldier dodged Captain Yasser's shot. The trigger was pulled again. Empty.

"Oh no! Out of bullets!" Captain Yasser pulled out the pistol magazine.

The Israeli soldier threw a knife towards Captain Yasser. Captain Yasser blocked the knife throw using a pistol in his hand.The Israeli soldier kept attacking Captain Naseer with a sharp knife.

A knife hit the right wrist of the Israeli soldier when Naseer thrust it. Naseer thrust the Israeli soldier again from the left. The Israeli soldier resisted Naseer's knife thrust, allowing Naseer to stab his left palm because the soldier resisted Naseer's knife from his left wrist being thrust.

The Israeli soldier stabbed Naseer. Naseer held the Israeli soldier's right arm. Naseer realized that the fold of the Israeli soldier's right arm was slowly healing on its own.

Naseer pressed the knife hard against the left palm of the Israeli soldier, but it didn't move. Naseer tried to hold the soldier's arm, which was trying to stab him, but failed. Slowly, the soldier's right arm grabbed the knife, bringing it closer.

Captain Yasser changed the magazine of the pistol to a full one. The pistol's barrel was pulled back. Captain Yasser shot at the Israeli soldier's head. The Israeli soldier quickly moved his head to avoid being hit by the bullet.

Captain Yasser shot the right elbow and the fold of the right leg of the Israeli soldier. The Israeli soldier fell to his knees. Captain Naseer stabbed the soldier's neck when the soldier's hand slipped from Captain Naseer's knife thrust on his palm.

Captain Yasser shot at the Israeli soldier. Three bullets hit the Israeli soldier's left shoulder. He slightly lifted his pistol and aimed at the Israeli soldier's head. The trigger was pulled. The Israeli soldier blocked the pistol shot with his left palm.

The Israeli soldier jumped back when Captain Naseer tried to stab his head. Captain Naseer lunged at the Israeli soldier. The Israeli soldier dodged Naseer's knife attack and punched Naseer's chest. Yasser shot at the Israeli soldier's body. The Israeli soldier seemed unaffected.

The Israeli soldier slashed the knife towards Yasser. Naseer and Yasser took turns attacking the Israeli soldier with knives. The Israeli soldier dodged Naseer's slashes and punched Naseer's face. The Israeli soldier also dodged Yasser's slash and then slashed Yasser's body with a knife.

Naseer charged at the Israeli soldier with the Bren LMG weapon that had no bullets. The Israeli soldier casually deflected the LMG. The Israeli soldier stabbed Naseer's right shoulder. Naseer screamed in pain. Yasser stabbed the Israeli soldier's lower jaw. The Israeli soldier stepped on Yasser's left back foot.

The Israeli soldier twisted Yasser's body to grab him in a hold to slaughter him. Naseer rushed to hold the Israeli soldier's right hand and then kicked Yasser away from the Israeli soldier. Naseer slashed the fold under the Israeli soldier's left shoulder. Naseer immediately ducked and jumped back behind the Israeli soldier.

Quickly, Naseer slit the Israeli soldier's throat. The Israeli soldier pulled Naseer forward and threw him towards Yasser, who had just gotten up from lying on the floor.

The Israeli soldier still stood, blood gushing from his neck, soaking his clothes and the floor. Yasser and Naseer, together, stunned, got up from lying on the floor.

The Israeli soldier attacked Naseer and Yasser. They did their best to dodge the Israeli soldier's knife slashes. Naseer struggled to use whatever strength he had left to deflect and block the Israeli soldier's knife slashes. Yasser used a nearby rifle as a defensive weapon.

Yasser blocked the Israeli soldier's knife slashes and pushed the soldier back with the rifle's butt. The Israeli soldier pushed the rifle away and freed himself from Yasser's grip. Naseer slashed the soldier's body as many times as possible.

Yasser saw what Naseer was doing and followed suit. More blood splattered on the walls and floor as Yasser and Naseer slashed the Israeli soldier's body together.

"Yasser! Now!" Naseer pushed the Israeli soldier's arm and attacked. The Israeli soldier stabbed Naseer in the back several times.

"Captain!!!" Yasser shouted in shock at Naseer's actions.Yasser slashed the Israeli soldier's right wrist. The soldier's hand hung limply. Yasser stabbed many times at the soldier's neck. Naseer pushed the Israeli soldier and then stabbed and severed the soldier's right hand.

The Israeli soldier's left hand punched Yasser's ribs several times, causing them to break. Yasser spat blood on the Israeli soldier's face. Naseer immediately stabbed the soldier's neck. Yasser and Naseer together deepened the cut on the Israeli soldier's neck. More blood splattered on the ceiling and floor. The Israeli soldier pushed Yasser and Naseer with all his might.

Yasser and Naseer fought their final battle with the Israeli soldier, who moved like a living corpse. Naseer stabbed the back of the soldier's neck and then several times. Yasser pushed the soldier's head backward.

Naseer pulled the soldier's head from behind. Naseer and Yasser stood shoulder to shoulder with their remaining strength. The two hands of the Israeli soldier fell to his waist. The Israeli soldier's neck was severed, then his head was thrown backwards and rolled on the floor until it hit the wall and stopped rolling. Naseer and Yasser fell to the floor together after successfully beheading the Israeli soldier.

Yasser and Naseer groaned in pain. Their clothes were soaked in sweat and blood. Yasser and Naseer couldn't move because of the numerous gunshot wounds, slashes, and knife stabs on their bodies. Yasser and Naseer screamed in pain for a long time.

"Yasser? Are you okay?" Naseer asked.

"Don't joke. You're worse off than me. It hurts so much. Oh god." Yasser replied.

"Naseer, I think I'll go now. I can't take it anymore." Naseer said.

"Stupid, use your morphine. You still have a syringe full of morphine. Use it!" Yasser shouted at Naseer.

"You use it. I'm dying anyway." Naseer said.Yasser crawled towards Naseer and checked Naseer's clothes from one pocket to another.

"Why are you groping me? Just because I'm dying, you want to take advantage? You Lut people." Naseer said.

"Idiot! I want to help you, idiot!" Yasser scolded Naseer and then pulled out a syringe containing morphine and stabbed Naseer's body and pressed the plunger until it was empty.

"You wasted the morphine and defied my orders. I regret giving you a rank." Naseer said.

"I should have listened to Captain Qusay instead of you." Yasser replied, scolding Naseer.

"Are you sure?" Naseer asked.

"I'm kidding." Yasser replied and laughed. Yasser groaned in pain after laughing.

"You use morphine too." Naseer said."It's finished." Yasser replied.

"How are you going to continue living? If you want to get promoted, you have to keep living. Otherwise, I already have a high rank and salary." Naseer replied.

"Shut up. I want to rest. It hurts so much." Yasser replied, groaning in pain.

"What's happening?" Captain Zahir asked as he arrived at the entrance.

"Help arrived too late. Did you come to help or send help?" Yasser asked, lying on the floor.

"Squad! Quickly, take care of them!" Captain Zahir instructed the beta squad.

The soldiers gathered around and treated Yasser and Naseer. Captain Zahir looked around.

"Intense." Captain Zahir said.

Captain Zahir's eyes focused on one Israeli soldier's head. The head looked at Captain Zahir. The two eyeballs of the head severed by Naseer and Yasser were still moving. The eyes blinked. The head grinned.

Captain Zahir drew his pistol and shot the head of the Israeli soldier until it ran out of bullets. The Arab elite soldiers of Beta Squad were shocked by Captain Zahir's actions.

"Why, Captain?!" asked one of the Arab elite soldiers.

"Don't worry. The Israeli soldier's head is still moving," replied Captain Zahir.

"Zahir, check every Israeli soldier's body. Make sure to shoot their heads multiple times," Naseer said.

"Quiet! Don't talk. We are treating you," snapped one of the Arab elite soldiers who was treating wounds with alcohol.

"Understood," Captain Zahir said.Elsewhere, the base leader picked up the radio handset, responding to the incoming call.

"Yes? Alright. Understood. Thank you. We will send a representative there," said the base leader.

"Sir?" Zaqwan asked the base leader.

"Send twenty of our soldiers to the old base. Our Arab elite soldiers need assistance," said the base leader.

"Good news?" Zaqwan inquired.

"Bad. Very bad. The Arab elite soldiers are asking for help. Bad," the base leader replied curtly.
