I shall assume you are here due to the jimmy rustling of Pale Narrator's "The Hearts of Man: Chapter 13" or just out of curiosity. Anyways, it is my head canon story of Anon's rescue     >the choppy sound of rotor blades rips through the air >luna looks to the sky, tears falling from her face as she does >it gets closer, you can barely recognise the sound through the pain "is that a..... helecopter?" >"anon what is that?" >a black YAH-56 swoops down to the clearing in front of the cave >a single rope is slung from the inside >a long black container falls from the helecopter, folowed by a man wearing a black suit >the man begins to drag the container towards you and luna >she readies her magic, horn leveled at the man >as he gets closer he stops. turning to look at the two of you >"who are you?" >>"just a soldier" >the man kneels down and pops open the case "wha, whats going on?" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lTOnPc9h-c plays >he pulls out an odd looking bunch of metal and canvas >fitting pieces of pipe together it takes the form of a stretcher >>"we're going to get you out of here" >the man takes a white box out of the container >he opens the box and pulls out a syringe >>"this will take the edge off of the pain >sticking the syringe into your arm he empties the contents into you >the pain dulls considerable, now only a dull ache "who.... who are you?" >>"you can call me snake, anonymous snake" >he brings the stretcher next to you >Luna watches silently as he rolls you onto it and straps you in >he brings another 4 straps from the corner and attaches them to another canvas bag that he takes from the container >Snake kneels down and turns on the radio strapped to his shoulder >>"Otacon, bring the NOMAD around for extraction" >the helecopter takes off, heading away from canterlot >"where are you taking anonymous? >>"Somewhere safe, where people like him can live without fear from interdimensional dangers" >he then attaches a rope to the stretcher, the other end attached to his harness >>"Time to go" >he grabs the canvas bag and opens it, revealing a yellow handle >with a loud swoshing noise he grabs the handle and pulls it from the bag >with a poomph a small balloon begins to inflate >trailing a nylon rope into the sky >"what is this thing?" >A loud rumbling fills the air, the ground shaking beneath your back >A large cargo plane roars towards you, a scant hundred feet from the ground >a hook mounted to the front of the plane catches the rope attached to the balloon >as you are lifted into the air you pass out from the shock  >you awake to a metal walled room, laying on a bed, the smell of ocean air hits your nose >>"hmph, kept us waiting there" >you turn to see Anon Snake standing next to another very large man clad in blue armor >"looks like the treatment worked, he should make a full recovery" >the door to the room slides open, powered by a silent motor >"IS NEW COMRADE AWAKE? HE MUST TAKE DRINKINGS OF GLORIOUS VODKA" >the blue man stands up, turning towards him >"getting inebriated could interrupt the bonding process to the electrodes in his arm and spine" >it is at this point that you notice you can wriggle your toes, but just barely >leaning up you place your hands on your knees  >you jolt in surprise as a red metal hand is placed on your knee "where the fuck did this come from?!?" >you look more closely at the hand, following it up to the wrist.... further to the arm...and finally to..... your elbow? "ohshitwhatthefuckisthis" >>"we werent able to save your arm, it was shredded by the horn" >snake walks over to the other side of the room, opening a locker >he pulls out and unfolds a wheelchair >the blue man begins to walk towards the door >"I have other patients to attend to, yesterday some poor bastard got hit in the chest by a crossbow bolt, until then, farewell boss" >snake brings the wheelchair over to you >>"Come on, I have something to show you. Strelnikov, help me out here" >both he and strelnikov help you into the chair >"where are we?" >snake wheels you over to the door and into a short hallway >>"welcome to...." >a door at the end of the hallway opens, light pouring in and blinding you for a short moment >>"mother base"
