Here's a brief story with the bad guys discussing their nemesis,Jennings,in another Sanna Menace story.It still saddens me,that my polite requests for any positive comments on that story,are still being ignored.
Doesn't really matter anyway.I still love this particular story,even if nobody else does...

The sound of gunfire was deafening,as the two sides of combatants shot at their opponents,and from the sound of screams,it was quite evident who was losing.
Grimly,Jennings aimed his rifle at another target,and fired.His aim was deadly,as he watched another opponent topple lifelessly to the ground.
He ducked backed down to avoid the retaliatory burst,and checked his watch.It wouldn't be long,before all the explosive charges he and Montgomery had set would go off.
Jennings glanced quickly at his best friend.Montgomery was doing precisely the same as he was,shooting with deadly accuracy.There were plenty of bullet riddled corpses,lying on the ground to prove this.
As well as using his rifle,Jennings had used his knife and his own hands to kill here.Montgomery too.Both had done this,to effect a silent entry into this target base.Both men had remembered Finlay's briefing on it,and they also recalled the new,but deadly weapon prototypes being developed here.They'd seen the results of them being used,and both had vowed to destroy every single weapon here.
They both continued to work well together in battle,as they always did.Both Jennings and Montgomery were British army regulars,and they'd trained very,very well.
Added to this,they had years of battle experience.They'd both read captured enemy intelligence reports,and there was a great deal of awe and admiration for them.
However,Jennings and Montgomery did not return the compliment.The enemy they were fighting,was ruthless,savage and cruel.Whenever they both saw these things on the battlefield,they made sure they made the instigators pay dearly.
Grimly,they continued to work their way forward out of the enemy base.They took it in turns,as one fired a covering burst,whilst the other advanced.
It was working very well,and still inflicting casualties on the enemy,both Jennings and Montgomery made it out of the base.
Just in time too,as a few seconds later,explosions began to shatter through the whole compound.Buildings were blown apart,and many huge fires started within.
As they both raced away,Jennings and Montgomery could hear faint screams of their enemies.They felt grimly satisfied hearing that,knowing their human enemies were utterly savage and ruthless.Both men had lost many of their friends due to this,and were determined to make any perpetrator pay.
Just as they were about clear,two men suddenly leapt out in front of them.From their clothing,Jennings and Montgomery identified them as O'Rourke's men.They both looked tough,and their expressions weren't friendly.
However,Jennings and Montgomery accepted the challenge,and moved in quickly.
The fight was over very quickly.Both of O'Rourke's men had good fighting skill,but they were no match for their opponents.
Montgomery finished off his enemy,by landing in several hard blows,before he used his combat knife to deadly effect.
Jennings made sure he launched his attack first,and he was using his arms skillfully,forcing the man back.He could even see a hint of desperation in his opponent's face,as he kept up his ruthless assault.
Within moments,Jennings made a swift move,using his legs to kick his enemy in the groin.As the man crumpled,Jennings then used several karate kicks on the man's head.His opponent didn't get up.
With that done,both Jennings and his friend hurried away.
Yet,as they did so,Jennings suddenly stopped.He looked up beyond the still blowing up base,and sensed they were being watched.
'Let's go,John.'Montgomery told him,seeing his friend like that.
Jennings instantly obeyed,and quickly rejoined his friend.His expression though,wasn't friendly.
'What is it?'Montgomery asked him.
'We were being watched,Monty.'Jennings spoke quietly,but his voice held utter conviction,and Montgomery believed him.
'Well,there's nothing we can do about it now.'Montgomery responded.'Whoever they are,they'll make themselves known.'
Neither spoke another word,as they moved safely out of the area,leaving a scene of utter chaos and carnage.

Jennings had indeed,been correct on somebody observing them.Well out of range from the now fiercely burning base,three heavily armed men stood,looking through a pair of binoculars at the withdrawing figures of Jennings and Montgomery.
One of them was known as Hall,and he was a veteran of many battles.He'd seen the fight,between Jennings,Montgomery and O'Rourke's men.Hall had been really impressed with the skill shown there,and he knew his two targets were also highly experienced veterans too.
What also impressed Hall,was that he hadn't seen Jennings or Montgomery,until they were extracting from the base.They were quite clearly,masters at infiltration.Things were going to get interesting later.Hall didn't doubt that for a moment.
Hall then lowered his binoculars,and gestured curtly to his two colleagues to follow.He'd seen enough.Within moments,they were gone too.

Like O'Rourke,Harris held a fierce,deadly reputation,but she also enjoyed her luxuries,and was now in her own personal gym.
It was very well equipped.Harris could use the varied weights,and there was a luxury sauna,jacuzzi,complete with a more than adequate swimming pool,and sunbeds scattered around it.
At the moment,Harris was enjoying herself,lying on one of the sunbeds.There were of course,her armed bodyguards nearby,but they were outside.Harris liked to be alone here.
She wasn't alone for long though,as she heard men's voices.Looking up,Harris recognised the three men who'd come here earlier,and her men were not letting them through to see her.
Harris could have allowed them in,but she decided to see what the three men would do.
She wasn't disappointed,as her bodyguards tried to force them away,but it was a bad mistake.
All her men were sent sprawling to the ground in agony,and the three men calmly entered the swimming pool area.
Harris watched them walk up to her,although they kept a respectable distance from her.They weren't being gentlemen,as their hard eyes kept sharp on her,and also made constant checks on the rest of the room.
However,Harris wasn't planning anything on them,as she looked up expectantly.
'Well?'Harris asked.
'This Jennings and Montgomery,are very impressive.'Hall answered,still thinking back to what he'd seen earlier.'I can see they're quite formidable.'
Harris allowed herself,a rare,but faint smile.
'So,do you think you can take them out?'
'Difficult to say.'Hall had to admit.'I need to know more about them.'This time,he gazed expectantly at her.'Who are they exactly? They both seem to be more than normal soldiers.'
'I was partly responsible for creating Jennings.'It was now Harris' turn to admit.'Years ago,one of O'Rourke's raiding parties brought in some people.They were going to be used as slave labour.Jennings was among them,but he was just a kid then.He had three elder sisters,which O'Rourke was going to enjoy.My own plan was to use Jennings as hostage,making his family co-operate,but something went wrong.'
'Which was?'Hall asked,interested.
'I didn't have Jennings very long.Not long after they were brought in,there was a massive riot,and he escaped with his sisters,but I do remember who helped them.'Harris lost her smile as she recalled those events.
'There was a Japanese father and son there.They helped one of Jennings' sisters at the time,and they'd obviously planned on the riot.'
'What happened to them?'
'They both escaped.Excellent fighters.I watched them take out several of my men,even in unarmed combat.'
'What about Montgomery? What do you know about him?'
'Almost nothing.He's from South Africa,descended from one of the Zulu tribes there,and they all love to fight.So does he.'
'It's going to take something special to beat him.'Hall nodded.'What about weaknesses?'
'Well,I have a plan,but first,gentlemen.'Harris rose from her sunbed,and advanced to the swimming pool's edge.'I need to freshen up.'
Hall and his two colleagues watched Harris dive into the pool,and began to swim in it.This made Hall turn to one of his men.
'Turner,Ginn,get as much information as you can on those two men.'Hall ordered him.'Do whatever it takes,and don't even let those Sanna scum intimidate you.'
The two men nodded,and hurried away.
Hall continued to watch Harris swim.The woman had a good,powerful stroke,and was still aware of his presence.
'So what is your plan,Harris?'
'Quite simple.'Harris responded through her strokes.'I've noticed Jennings has an eye for the ladies,and vice versa.He's very old fashioned.Put a pretty girl in trouble,and rest assured,Jennings will be there to save her.I've seen him do it more than once.'
'And which pretty girl do you have in mind?'
'Come now,Mister Hall.'Harris stopped swimming.'I'm sure you're well aware of O'Rourke's reputation.He's got so many pretty fish tied up here.All we have to do is choose one.'
Hall had to admit he liked the idea.He watched Harris climb out of the pool,and begin to dry herself.
'I'll contact you,once all the necessary arrangements have been made.'Harris assured.'Now,if you don't mind,I'd like to be alone.'
She then lay back on the same sunbed,and seemed to dismiss Hall's presence.
Hall himself,wasn't bothered by the woman's ignorant attitude.All he wanted to do,was to obtain as much information as he could.
He didn't bother saying goodbye,as he exited the gym,not seeing Harris' sneer at his back.
Damned fool.She cursed him silently.If he really thought he could beat Jennings,then he was in for a shock.
Still,orders were orders.Harris then decided to go and choose one of O'Rourke's pretty,but helpless captives.
She rose up from the sunbed and got prepared.When she'd done so,Harris made her way to the detention area.This was a well protected place,and it was built deliberately deep into their base.Any rescue attempts,would certainly have their work cut out.
Although Harris knew it would be suicidal for anybody else,she'd seen what Jennings and Montgomery could do,and didn't doubt for a moment they'd both reach any place they chose to be.No matter how heavily defended it was.
She was still thinking when she reached the first cell,and after barking an order to the guards controlling the opening mechanism of the door,Harris then entered the cell.
This cell held only one prisoner,and Harris knew they were all young women.She knew they were all kidnap victims of O'Rourke,and she could see they were all highly attractive girls.
The young woman Harris was currently staring at,was a short dark haired beauty.She was sitting on the floor,with her back to the wall.She had a good figure,was dressed in a blue denim shirt,and wore a matching pair of blue denim jeans.
The young woman's breasts were certainly impressive.Not only were they very pleasing to see,but Harris also noted the four loops of strong white rope,tied tightly above and below the girl's chest.
Harris knew O'Rourke had bound and gagged this girl earlier,and he'd done it very well.She could see how tight he'd tied the ropes over the girl.Her hands were locked securely behind her back,and more loops of rope were wound over her knees and ankles.The ropes made the girl very sexy.
Of course,Harris knew the girl wouldn't appreciate it,but she didn't give a damn.The gag did its job though,keeping her quiet.O'Rourke had stuffed a balled up cloth into her mouth,and then tied a large strip of white cloth into the girl's mouth,making it secure,and it was a highly effective cleave gag.
Harris was pleased to see the terror in the girl's eyes,when she'd seen Harris enter,who now knelt down beside her.The girl,still terror stricken,tried to move away from her,but giving a contemptuous laugh,Harris easily pulled her back.
'Don't get too alarmed,my dear.'Harris whispered into the girl's ear.'I might need you for a special mission,and I need a pretty damsel in distress for bait.I think you might just be the part.'
Harris then smiled down at the gagged girl.It was a very nasty one at that.
