"Alright, since we went over the weapons and defense position, lets talk about how we want to distribute the firepower to those positions.", I said as I looked at Twilight and then to Brick.

Twilight spoke: "Since there are three of us, we'll split into three roles."

"Brick, you'll position yourself on the West side of the gorge.".

I turned to Twilight, "Twilight you'll position yourself on the East."

"And you?", Twilight responded.

"I am going to take the air_covering you and everything else from above in a special buzzard."

"Special?".

"You'll see.".

"You know how to fly one of those things?"

"I had some time while you were busy with the defenses..."

"A PS4 controller? Seriously?", I said to the instructor.

"Ever played COD 3708?", the bandit instructor said.

"I played Battlefield 4."

"Get the fuck out of here!"

"You learned how to fly a hover craft using a fucking PS4 controller? Didn't you tell me flying takes weeks or even months of practice?", Twilight baffled.

"I guess it just works, anyways you are each responsible for commanding your own share of idiots on each choke point, so use em' wisely and first of course. Fall back if you think you are about to get over run with your two lines of defenses. This tower will be our final line of defense. Any questions?"

Silence.

"THIS IS GOING TO BE FUN!", Brick yelled out with a hammer in the air.

"Lets bend them over, fuck em' in the ass, and pull on their hair!", Twilight cheered putting her hoof in the air. We laughed in response.

I smiled and rose my fist as I spoke: "That's what I want to hear. DISMISSED!"

It was approximately one hour until sunset and I stopped by my personalized aircraft under the covers.

I contacted my friends as I laid against my aircraft and scanned the North side with my binoculars: "Sunset is almost here, I'll come in about an hour or less to conserve fuel."

Twilight was alone and situated in an abandoned bunker attached (60ft up) to a wall of a mountain which was 50 ft back from the front lines_ready to snipe out tanks with her .905 Calibre Sniper Rifle heat rounds. My drone was out on the front lines which had two guard towers with a badass marauder in each of them and a tripod mounted AP M2 Browning HMG. on the sand bags with a blast shield.

She was ECHO-ing one of her bandits, "No, no, yes right there and fucking stay there!", she hung up, "Fucktards." She whispered to herself.

She put a hoof up to her ear, "Yes I am ready to blow shit up over."

SMASH, he crushed the refreshments guy with his hammer"I ASKED FOR AN ENERGY DRINK, CHOCOLATE MILK IS FOR PUSSIES!", Brick was behind the first line of defense which had two guard towers with badass marauders in them just like Twilight's frontline. The buildings along side the paths were all fortified with bandits ready to shoot out the windows all around the town as well as the houses on the walls of the gorge. Some houses had SAM turrets on them while others had Goliaths with M314 Miniguns.

He heard my transmission, "Yeah I am in position slab.".

I checked my time on my ECHO device and looked through my binoculars yet again to find a dust cloud coming our way.

"They're coming.", I talked to my ECHO and turned around, "Let's see what they think of this.", I uncovered the covers to reveal a Bandit Badass Buzzard.

Buzzard Weapons: 2 frontal Maliwan Shock M314 Miniguns, 2 Frontal 25 MM airburst acid rounds, and Tediore Slag homing missiles.

Countermeasures: Flares.

Defenses: Air Radar and Camo.

I put down my black hood as I was getting inside and starting the engines by pressing the home button on my PS4 controller. I was off with my squadron of other buzzards.

I remain situated with most of the entire Thousand Cuts Airforce and waiting fo-... Oh here they come,

I see Hyperion has brought Drop Barges and a fucking Hyperion Osprey. The Osprey went first.

"Wait for the signal!", I whispered to my ECHO.

On Brick's position he can see all the types of Hyperion land units we encountered and behind the army of loaders ere manned tanks with horizontal Railguns and missile turrets.

"Good thing I brought AP heated rounds.", Twilight smiled as she pulled back the bolt and adjusted her scope. The amount of land units were about the same from her end.

Still unaware of us in the darkness, "This is Jack and it is sundown, so will you-?"

As he was talking, I interrupted him with a little surprise by taking out my laser designator in my smart phone.

The Tediore metal storm turret came out of a platform below. It armed, aimed and,

I was at the gorge when it happened,

BANG BOOM

Literally all the hostile aircraft were bombarded by a sudden blast of bullets going at 1,000,000 per minute in fucking seconds. I set the coordinates for the missiles.

The barrels on the Tediore metal storm turret shot out like Javelin missiles and went straight for all four tanks.

BOOM, two of the missiles waited until they were above the tanks and struck them from the top

BOOM, Same thing happened to Brick's position.

The missiles weren't enough to take out the tanks but they were enough to weaken them and thin out the infantry. I said calmly into the ECHO, "Fire!"

Still unaware of the ambush taking place, the lights turned on and blinded them.

RATATATATATATA BANG BANG BANG. Brick's fellow bandits fired first at the infantry then the hostile infantry fired back.

Brick used his berserk ability to go impossibly invincible and bulldosed his way through loaders and soldiers to get to the first tank. He jumped onto the first tank and went straight to the second.

BANG BOOM, the second tank already took out a guard tower but with Brick's two bare hands: he took the barrel of the gun and fucking ripped it off from the bottom part like a chicken wing. With all his strength: he used the ripped off part off the tank to,

SMASH, hit the top of the other tank with it like the Hulk. Brick then ripped out a missile turret from the first tank and held it like a rocket launcher on his shoulder. He jumped high into the air, grabbed a missile from the missile pod, armed it, and threw it at the badass loaders.

~15 minutes later~

BOOM, goes the last of the infantry

With all his defenses weakened, "FALL BACK TO THE SECOND LINE!"

Twilight was there was she heard my signal.

"On it." , Twilight said that as soon as the bandits fired at the hostiles first and just like Brick's position, the casualties were exchanged.

SQUISH, the bandits in the middle of Twilight's Towers were crushed by the weight of the tank.

Twilight took aim at the lens to the cock pit and,

BANG BOOM, The tiny explosion hit and the tank suddenly came to a halt, the hostiles inside were undoubtably cooked alive to death inside, as if the tank were turned into a giant toaster.

"Perfect.", she smiled.

Suddenly the second tank spotted her and shot it's missiles at Twilight's bunker.

"Oh shit!", Twilight said before leaping out of the bunker. She took out her grapple and latched on to a small ledge on the mountain above her. She used her potential energy to swing across the mountain and narrowly escape the explosion. She reached the other end of the swing and did a back flip right over the tank: 20ft high. She landed on top of the tank and took out her White Phosphorus kunai bomb with a hoof. She armed the explosive with her teeth, opened the latch to the tank and saw the three crew inside the tank, looking at her in fear.

She smiled at them and said: "Here's to my new test subjects".

She threw it into the cock pit and closed it.

BOOM,

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH", Twilight laughed to the sound of the poor souls in the tank. If heat rounds weren't horrible enough: white phosphorus, when ignited, will burn and stick to virtually anything including flesh down to the BONE! They may have died the worst way imaginable.

With all the hostiles wiped out by my quadrotor... for now, Jack ECHO-ed and sounded really pissed, "COME ON, I DIDN'T PAY YOU GUYS TO FUCK AROUND!

I was listening to Jack getting trolled hard when I noticed a lot of bright obje- oh no!. There were literally DOZENS of Hyperion Ospreys and Drop Barges littering the skies North of us high and low in the canyon. One special and mysterious aircraft stands out from all the rest in the way back which I can't make out yet. I also spotted more enemies on my air radar coming from Twilight and Brick's position.

"Playing all your cards, huh? Bad idea.", I smiled as we had a multitude of surprises for them.

Brick stood waiting at the second line for the second wave of hostiles. In between the first and second line of Brick's defenses were the bandit-fortified structures and friendly buzzards we agreed to put in there but it wasn't enough to hold them back as the countless Hyperion MBTs (Main Battle Tanks), LAVs with 180 side Miniguns and 360 AA Quad Cannons, and armored infantry, burned and crushed them to the ground. It only gave enough time for Brick's line to get ready...

...but we had a little surprise for them.

Fortunately the second line on Brick's side was twice as fortified and three times as long (the path widens towards the slab tower.) as Brick's first line. A 25ft. tall metal wall ran along the second line with four metal bunkers attached to them. In each bunker had a Mounted Dahl AP XM312 HMG and 8-12 bandits each. The four bunkers were connected by a platform on the wall with sandbags on the north side of the wall and held 12-15 bandits between each bunker. The whole front of field in front of Brick's line was littered with Anti-Tank Barricades and complete with 4 support buzzards. In the middle stood a blast proof gate and at the top, Brick behind sandbags and bulletproof glass with his refrigerator-sized black case on his back.

"Get ready boys we got bitches to slap!", he said to his bandits and putting his case down on the platform that connected the four bunkers.

He saw 2 Hyperion MBTs and 5 LAVs in the distance rolling in faster than usual.

"GIVE EM HELL!"

RATATATATATA BANG BANG BANG BOOM

Once they were at the barricades they were already getting huge dents and corrodes in their armor from the armor piercing rounds, acid, and slag. One tank already blew up from the fire. But the other enemy tank managed to damage the wall from the missile pods.

Someone in a bunker fired a rocket and blew up the last MBT.

Everyone stopped firing when Brick said something after: "Get ready idiots, that isn't the last of 'em!".

He saw the five fast-moving Hyperion LAVs carrying soldiers.

RATATATATATA, The AA turrets on the APCs and the Buzzards fired at each other, but as expected they were all shot down, but the buzzards took out about 10% of the health of the APCs on average.

BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG, they all fired smoke grenades and landed in the mess of tank barricades.

"Time to get out the bad slabs.", he whispered to himself as he kicked open the case on the ground to reveal the fucking gigantic Vladof GAU-8 30 mm minigun in it's taken-apart state.

After 10 seconds of brick getting ready and putting the weapon together, an Army of about 5 ION loaders came out of the smoke, stopped about three fourths away from the wall of metal and wall of smoke, and put up a wall of shields.

With Brick waiting for the time to fuck everything up:"FIRE!"

BANG BANG BANG RATATATATATATA, All the bandits fired and took out only two fifths of the shield's power as the smoke dissipated slightly to reveal four constructors and SEVEN WAR Loaders. The Loaders went first and stopped to charge their weapons when they were at the ION loaders. The constructors stayed behind and started building surveyors and more ION loaders. One WAR loader already had half of its guns shot off and one ION loader got shot in the eye, but they fired back and incinerated five bandits on an open platform. Ten Surveyors in total flew in from the right and left sides of the wall. Their shock weapons electrocuted 2 bandits, but they all were quickly shot down.

As Brick was waiting for that time to strike himself: Over 52 Hyperion soldiers undoubtedly unloaded from the APCs and out of the smoke_hiding behind their loaders as their only source of cover. Their Latest Hyperion weapons were unrecognizable and far more advanced-looking than most of whatever I and Twilight scavenged and bought during the journey. Some had different various advanced assault weapons ranging from what looks like LMGs to SMGs to mostly fully automatic rifles and all down to sidearms, even e-tech weapons.

As soon as the death ratio was 3:2 (Bandit deaths to Hyperion infantry hostiles deaths) for the bandits: The smoke dissipated to reveal the APCS before they fired their miniguns at the tower. "COME AND GET SOME!", he yelled as he picked up the huge gun with BOTH HANDS and put the cylinder-shaped ammo pack linked to the gun by a ammo belt protector on his back like a backpack. He used his fist to smash the weakened glass in front of him.

""ITS A BIG FUCKING GUN YOU LITTLE YELLOW PRICKS!", he said as he turned the barrels on his seven-barreled minigun,

RATATATATATATATATATATATATA, he used his berserk ability and aimed for the infantry

the 30mm bullets first tore through a row of hostiles that included a couple Badass loaders, constructors, and over half of the standard loaders and soldiers within about six seconds into a mist of blood and scrap metal. Seconds later: two ospreys, and a drop barge came rolling in from the North. Brick finished with the last of the small units and started with the ground vehicles next:

BOOM BOOM BOOM, from left to right: they were opened up like a can getting opened by a can opener in just a matter of seconds. The bullets he received didn't damage him because well... he's Brick, what else is there to say?

"YOU GET A BULLET, YOU GET A BULLET, EVERYONE GETS A BULLET!", he pointed his weapon at an osprey's engine,

RATATATATATATATATATATATA, it only took a few bullets and milliseconds for the left engine to explode. It began to spin and,

CRASH, BOOM right into the mountain. The osprey broke apart into chunks and crashed onto the annihilated part of town.

Brick stopped firing for a brief moment before aiming for the second osprey's cockpit,

RATATATATATA, the blood got all over the inside glass of the osprey before spinning out of control and randomly firing it's missiles everywhere. To our misfortune, one missile entered one of Brick's bunker's and blew it from the inside (2 bunkers left), however another missile hit one of the five hostile APCs rolling in. It ran out of ammo and continued to increase its' rotation speed until it hit the floor_crashing into a pair tanks beyond the APCs. Out of nowhere, a vertically-flying osprey propeller skipped toward's brick's wall and sliced a tank in front of the group of APCs before it exploded at an incredible speed. The propeller started spinning on it's other two axis before violently stopping, horizontally, at the inside of a bunker (practically everyone inside got decapitated).

"There goes another bunker!", he said, turning the barrels on his 30mm before pointing at the incoming drop barge,

"THIS IS SLAB AIRSPACE YOU PRICKS!"

RATATATATATATATATATATATA *click click*, he ran out of 30mms, but the last of it was enough to disable the target's engine.

BOOM, CRASH, the drop barge began to spin to the right before it crashed into the ground. The force sent the prism skipping and sliding randomly on all axis_taking out the rest of all the visible and hostile ground units on Brick's side. The drop barge finally landed and slid on it's top side, taking out the cockpit and back-half of the ship (which exploded) before it slowed down, but not slow enough to,

CRASH, ...crash through the gate below Brick, but he was quick enough to take off his 30mm bullet ammo pack and do a high back flip in the air, just in time to narrowly escape the crash.

In mid-air, he took out a Bandit M150 LMG from his digital inventory. He did a twist as well, so he could land on the drop barge with himself facing the main loading area of the it, which was on the south side of the wall.

Brick's wall was about 300 feet away from the slab tower. Within that distance, were the same buildings as Twilight and I went through. They were repaired and fortified so it matched three times that of Brick's now-annihilated part of town with every window occupied with a rifle. The rubble that my e-tech grenade launcher made was not though, but was now a bunker: burrowed into the rubble with a bandit-operated Hyperion double barrelled Rave 8.5 HMG facing down the alley way.

As soon as Brick ran to the southern edge of the barge, he already saw Hyperion personnel and loaders pour out of the drop barge. The bandits from the nearest buildings and the second story fired first at the Hyperion soldiers, quickly painting the grass and dirt with blood and internal organs. Some of the HOT loaders were however successful and quick enough to break through the walls of the buildings and use their flamethrowers to make the interiors like pigs in ovens.

Brick, in response, put his own thermite charges in a ten-foot-diameter circle around him, above the majority of the remaining hostile personnel.

BOOM

The weight of Brick pushed the now-circular metal downwards and onto a squadron of six soldiers below.

Before the others in the room could react,

SMASH, he turned left, dashed over and used his left fist to punch another badass loader in the eye and rip out the power core.

The soldiers on the opposite of where Brick dashed fired and the Slab King immediately threw it at the group. To cover from the explosion, he kicked up the piece of circular scrap metal on the floor and used it as a brief blast-shield. He pointed his M150 at the survivors of the explosion with his right hand.

RATATATATATA

He took note that he was in between two heavy crates and did an air-split to kick both of them into over four hostiles each at once.

With everyone and thing dropped in the drop barge (no pun intended) with his M150, he materialized the semi-auto NADE Grenade Launcher in his left hand.

He jumped over the usual top part of the door and quickly,

RATATATATATATATA BANG BANG BANG, fired both weapons at the remaining Hyperion. He fired his grenades into the windows of the invaded buildings to clear of Hyperion and his M150 to take out the ones out side before going all in on the alley.

A little shortly after the middle of Brick's second-line battle, about the same amount of initial, hostile, vehicles: 2 APCs, one tank, and one osprey, came rolling in from Twilight's side. Unlike Brick's side, her's was about twice as long and much more rugged as Brick's side: perfect for Twilight's element of surprise, which is why I picked her for this job.

It was almost midnight and the only significant light sources were coming from the extremely bright lights coming from the small convoys and my dog fight with the majority of the air assault. The purple shinobi stared coldly and emotionlessly at the small convoy from a ledge of a flat wall above. She wore a black robe with purple devil symbols, over her hot outfit and a bandana covering her nose and mouth, while both her long pony tail, robe, and dog tags around her neck moved with the soft wind.

Her horn glowed as she lifted her right hoof in front of her. A large blanket of fog covered the convoy (and osprey) as she moved it from left to right. The only sign of them were their headlights, uselessly cutting through the fog.

"Akumu o hajimemashou (Let the nightmare begin)", she said, as soon as she was straight above them.

Down at the convoy: each armored vehicle carried about five to six personnel each while the rest of the 38 personnel walked with the loaders.

"Ow.", a Hyperion combat engineer on the first Light armor said, as he put his hands on his helmet.

"What's wrong Phil?", a walking soldier said in response by the vehicle.

"Just a headache, like the rest of this job Miller.", he sighed

"I have been getting a headache too, but damn this mist is thick.", he said, as he rubbed his helmet with his left hand as well.

"Uughh, someone just shoot m-"

RATATATATATATA

BANG BANG BANG

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

He was interrupted by some shooting and screaming in the back of the convoy. The convoy stopped, and everyone nearby pointed their weapons and lights at the noise.

"We're being attacked, come with me Miller!", he said as he grabbed his Hyperion SMG.

The two went over to the back of the convoy, by another APC and were the first to the scene: five soldiers, dead, on the ground: one shot to death with a fully automatic rifle, three shot with a high-powered pistol, and one with his throat slit.

"Huh?", the engineer said as he noticed something odd: the one had it's throat slit had his own knife in his right hand, covered in blood. Another thing to note, was that the same body's rifle and pistol, were the only ones smoking from the barrel.

The engineer continued: "So your telling me this guy shot and killed his own men, then sliced his own thro-", he was interrupted with a rifle-butt to the face as soon as he turned to face his buddy.

"Halt!", a couple of loaders tried to restrain him.

"YOU ARE NOT TAKING ME ALIVE YOU FUCKING FILTHY FURIES!", Miller yelled,

RATATATATATATATATA

he shot rifle rounds into the nearby loaders

"Miller calm down! What are you doing?"

He looked to Phil on the ground and pulled out two cooked grenades as soon as more loaders closed in on him.

"FOR OUR VIRGINITIES!!!!!", he yelled at the top of his lungs with a grenade in each hand,

Phil realized something when he had a second wave of aches and started to get disorientated, "Don't tell me we have been dr-!"

BOOM

Twilight didn't even need to be there to kill: all she had to do, was remotely activate a few rock-camo fog machines that spewed out the narcotic gas.

RATATATATATATATA

The one osprey, that was apart of the convoy, had no choice but to blow the drug-fog away with its' rudders and eliminate anyone affected by the gas with their main 25mm explosive cannon. The gas got inside the cockpits of the armored vehicles as well, causing 2 operators of the APCs to drive straight off the 2500ft cliff and onto the hard rock below, ending in explosions.

BOOM, the osprey blew up the tank and continued to shoot at everything down below.

We didn't leave the osprey without a present: Twilight raised her right fore hoof and in the air and brought it soft and straight to the ground.

As soon as Twilight brought down her hoof: a giant net, shot from a distant area, covered the mid part of the osprey. This net had heavy weights at all the four corners to bring the osprey to a halt and down towards the Earth (or Pandora I should say). This was not all it could do though:

Twilight smirked fiendishly and raised her hoof in the air yet again. Moments later: the four weights all magnetically clamped together below the osprey to bring the craft even faster downwards until it gently touched the ground.

She wasn't finished: she opened the short telekinetic grasp on her hoof like a hand would and slowly closed it. The four corners of the net started to filter through the combined weights, making the osprey's room in the net, rapidly run out. Already, the incredibly tough wires started bending the wings of the aircraft upwards, making dents in the armor, and cracking the glass, in and around the cock pit.

Her smirk grew when she saw the poor souls in the cock pit banging on the glass, trying to get out.

"Dare mo nogareru koto wa dekimasen.(Nobody can escape.)", she said to herself, as a couple of fires started in the cockpit and erupted through the broken windows, incinerating everyone inside.

BOOM

The aircraft exploded and the machine continued to filter the net until it got clogged up and stopped working.

She made a short, evil laugh as she observed the amount of destruction the traps caused. In her peripherals, she saw another convoy coming in from the North, twice as large as the first one: including 2 Hyperion ospreys.

Twilight closed her eyes, made a deep breath, and put her hooves together. As soon as she opened her eyes:

"HA!", at the top of her lungs.

BOOM

The remote explosives we placed on the east side worked much better than we expected: the path way under the entire convoy collapsed, sending them to their doom below.

With only two ospreys to go: Twilight raised her hoof up in the air above her head. She then moved her hoof downwards so it pointed at the ospreys. Immediately after, a squadron of half a dozen buzzards flew over head.

As soon as they were in formation: "Light em' up."

BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG

The first missile first hit the cockpit of the first osprey, but the second hit the engine and sent it on a spiraling decline towards the ground below. The four other missiles just annihilated the second one in a huge blinding explosion. Twilight felt the explosion's shockwave, but wasn't phased.

RATATATATATA BOOM BOOM, the squadron of buzzards were suddenly shot down from above.

"Hm?", she looked to her peripherals and saw another osprey at the same altitude as her. This one osprey saw Twilight unfortunately and fired all its homing missiles towards her.

She made a small smirk and chuckle before:

BOOM

the missiles hit where Twilight stood immediately after she took off her robe, bandana, and air filter.

The three pilots in the cockpit saw the explosion happen and celebrated for a couple moments before:

CRASH, a giant, purple laser-cutter shuriken crashed through the glass roof above and stopped mid-air to slice the front-most pilot symmetrically apart.

Twilight, now in her sexy outfit, teleported straight above the osprey, in front of the crescent moon before the explosion. She removed the closed hand fan from her pony tail, opened it, and threw it at the cock pit. The hand fan expanded into a giant laser-cutting shuriken, seconds after the moment it left her hoof.

CRASH, as soon as the shuriken hit the front-most pilot, she commanded it to stop with her horn and fore-hoof, before landing on the top of the craft. When the shuriken was done slicing one of the pilots, she commanded it to turn ninety degrees in an instant.
A split second later, Twilight dashed forward and the shuriken soon followed, but before it passed the two other pilots, the shuriken's blade instantaneously EXPANDED three times its' size to slice the two other pilots in half at stomach-height. The shuriken caused massive internal damage as it got hurled through the aircraft.

The pony commanded the shuriken to accelerate and exit straight out the other end of the aircraft before she trotted and leaped off the back end of the aircraft. She used her levitation spell to glide and grab on to the side of the nearest buzzard. Her flying blade of destruction came around towards Twilight and contracted back in to a hand fan before it was caught by her hoof.

As soon as she closed the hand fan and putted it back in her pony tail:

BOOM

without looking at the osprey, it exploded as the buzzard she was on flew away.

When I was flying through a cloud to flank a couple hostile aircraft, I heard something land on the right side of my badass buzzard.

BOOM

I looked in my right mirror to see the blinding explosion and Twilight on my right wing after.

"Twilight?!".

"Never expected to find you here!", she responded with a smile and continued: "The explosives in the mountain took out one of the ways into Thousand Cuts, so you shouldn't have to worry about a land assault from the Northeast of the tower!".

"Really? That's great news Twilight!", I said excitingly.

Once we were through the cloud, we found ourselves surrounded by a squadron of the last of our buzzards: 36 in total, flying with us towards the potential ultimate dog fight of the whole entire battle. My air radar detected that there was at least two dozen hostile aircraft left up ahead in the gorge. The blip in the far back was what I presumed to be the new Hyperion aircraft I saw earlier: Hyperion's ultimate weapon on the offensive, but I had a even greater surprise for it.

I echoed to the buzzard pilots: "Listen up buds, you are going to have the fight of your lives, stay in formation and of course, let em' have it!"

The defenses on the sides of the gorge plus the initial buzzards held off a lot of enemy aircraft but were eventually overwhelmed by the sheer numbers and firepower. Fortunately, the gorge gets narrower the closer one is to the tower, so we should have the geological choke-point advantage.

We flew into the canyon from the tower's side and flew towards the aircraft in the canyon.

I looked at Twilight in the right mirror, "You ready Twilight?!".

She took out her slag AP RMR-30 Carbine from her digital inventory and pulled back the charging handle, "As ever!".

I echoed to my squad mates: "Spread out!"

The whole flock, including me, formed a defensive stance a few hundred feet away from the tower with most of my guys in the front.

"Here they come!", Twilight said as soon as the ospreys appeared, some flying through the gorge and over it.

"Wait for it.", I Echoed to my squad mates as the horde of at least ten ospreys and 3 drop barges came flying in and using the side guns to shoot at the fortified buildings on walls of the gorge.

BOOM

One osprey was shot down by a couple SAM turrets but yet again the sheer numbers overwhelmed the bandits in the buildings.

"FIRE!"

RATATATATATATATATATA BANG BANG BANG

The front group of 12 buzzards fired their miniguns and missiles at first line of ospreys: two of the ospreys had their crew and engines shot out but the second row of ospreys were quick enough to take out five of the buzzards with their frontal 25mm gun and side miniguns.

As soon as one of the drop barges came into range: "Time to give em' a present!", I pressed the square button on my controller.

BANG, a missile dropped from my buzzard and launched itself at a drop barge. It impaled itself and latched on to the drop barge because it was no ordinary missile: the pod opened up to reveal the "present": a harpoon gun turret.

BANG, the harpoon aimed to fire at a close-by osprey in the side. The gun's harpoon immediately retracted to pull the barge and osprey together.

CRASH BOOM

The linked aircrafts eventually crashed into each other and blew each other up.

"SCORE bitches!", I raised my fist in the air to celebrate my double kill.

I looked in my right mirror to find Twilight to have disappeared.

"Huh? Where did she go?", I thought as I looked around to find her.

On the top of the drop barge, was the cock pit of the drop ship that overlooked the half-front part of the aircraft.The room was only sound-proof enough to hear the faint sound of shock waves from the explosions dealt to both sides in front of them.

The room was small and held around only three engineers: one to pilot, one to monitor the ship's health, and one to handle the ship's defenses.

In the silence of the room, the engineer that did the piloting stood in front of the glass and yawned.

Seconds later:

BAM BAM!

"Huh?", the pilot saw something hit the glass: it was two shuriken. The shuriken lit purple and made a high pitched ring.

CRACK!

The thick glass cracked from the sound wave of the shuriken.

"Oh shit.", was his last words before:

CRASH

a purple pony crashed through the window. In a split of a second, after crashing through the window, Twilight crushed the wind pipe in the pilot's throat with a flying kick. For the rest of the second she did a roll to absorb the impact. The roll was enough time for her to take out her .357 1911s, holstered on the opposite sides of her flanks. It took only a couple milliseconds:

BANG

....to stand, aim, point, and simultaneously put a bullet in each of the faces of the other two in the room before they had a chance to touch the pistols holstered on them. A second later, she put the barrels up to her face and blew the smoke out of the barrels. In yet another couple moments, she released the magazines in the pistols and let gravity do the work. As soon the magazines disappeared, two new, full magazines materialized above her. She timed the twirl of the guns well enough for the magazines to enter the bottom of the gun, she kept twirling them until they were in their respective holsters.

CRASH BANG

The alarm sounded and a squadron of at least seven soldiers ran to the area, ten seconds later, below the cockpit that were connected by a perpendicular pair of stairs.

A Hyperion of higher rank got to the scene first by the base of the stairs. He silently gestured to them to take point with his arm. One of the soldiers nodded in response and moved in.

The huge squad dispersed out of the stairwell and onto the level,

"FREEZE!", one of them said.

"Intruder's gone, sir.", another said.

One sniffed the air, "Is that gasoline I smell?"

The Hyperion soldier downstairs that got to the scene first, made an evil chuckle before,

BANG BANG BANG

He shot the trail of gasoline on the floor three times with his .357 1911 to get the sparks going.

BANG BANG BANG

The soldiers turned their weapons towards stairs.

They saw a blase of fire forming from the entrance and towards a Jerry can before one of them spoke: "You clever son-of-a-!".

"Mua ha ha ha!", Twilight laughed, got out of her holographic desguise and walked away before:

BOOM

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH"

A blaze erupted from the stair well, setting the security on fire and screaming.

RATATATATATATATA BANG BANG BANG

I took out an osprey's engine,

BOOM

It hit the side of the canyon when I saw flames coming from a drop barge's cock pit.

"Twilight!", I thought as I made my way to the drop barge.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEEEEP

My lock-on detector went off before I deployed my flares and aimed at the offending osprey's cock pit with the barrels on my 25mm

RATATATA RATATATA

As the ship was beginning to breakdown, Twilight's corrosive SMG's shot and dissolved through 2 Hyperion Soldiers' armor, coming around a corner as she headed towards the docking area. Nobody could match her incredibly fast reactions and precise shots, especially in tight corners with an SMG as she continued to move in and stack the kills.

Twilight went up to take cover by a wall with the entrance to the docking area around the corner. She peaked around the corner to find 3 Hyperion soldiers and 2 GUN Loaders at the end of the hallway,

RATATATATA

Twilight tilted her body back before the hostiles fired. The loaders walked towards her location, followed by the three soldiers. She put a new magazine in her BBL SMG, tried to blind fire with it at the loaders and succeeded in turning them into scrap metal.

Twilight put her gun away around the corner and waited for them to come to her piece of cover.

After ten seconds of silence, one of the soldiers gestured to the other two to stay behind. He stuck to the same wall with the same corner Twilight touched. He gestured for his men to get ready with a nod, they nodded back.

"FREEZE YOU BIT-huh!?", he rounded the corner with his combat rifle to find a disk-shaped object on the ground with writing: "Your fucked bro :).". Before he had a chance to react, the disk launched it's self straight into the air.

BOOM

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH"

The white phosphorous mine exploded and the ignited part got all over the poor soldier, practically eating his skin right down to the bone on everything.

The two other soldiers flinched from the explosion before one of them spoke: "Mother fu-"

SLICE, he got grabbed from behind and got his throat cut by a tanto. Once the blood spewed out, Twilight kicked the suffering corpse to the ground.

The other only had time to turn around and,

STAB

get pinned to the wall with a katana through his shield and chest.

SLICE

she thrusted her katana to the right, spewing out his entrails all over the wall and floor. With the blood dripping from her katana, she sliced the air to rid some of the blood on her blade, twirled it in her right fore-hoof, and put in her belt before galloping towards the door, leading to the docking area and passing the air vent above she used to flank and surprise the soldiers from behind.

The door she galloped to automatically opened to reveal a small room with another closed door across from her's. She stopped halfway in the room.

The dog fight score for now was slightly better for us: 2 Hyperion Drop Barges (that includes the one Twilight is in), about 10 ospreys,15 buzzards (that excludes me), and 5 fortified gorge bandit houses left.

BOOM, I flinched.

Make that 7...

RATATATATATA BOOM, I flinched from the bright explosion again

Six! Six buzzards! Now we are fucked!

"Eat this!", I pressed the left bumper on my controller,

BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG

I shot a missile that broke apart into a series of six missles

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM

I scored a triple osprey-kill: one missile in a cockpit pf an osprey, one in a another osprey's rudder, and two missiles in another's wing.

BOOM BOOM

The rest of the missiles hit the back side of the untouched drop barge, but it still remains almost steady.

RATATATATATATA

I saw my six buzzards shoot the fuck out of 2 more ospreys from above with their miniguns.

"Five",

BOOM, a buzzard kamikazied into a osprey, interrupting the thought.

"Four! Four ospreys left..."

BOOM, an osprey's side minigun shot down two buzzards.

"...got to take them out fast.".

Everyone and thing in the docking knew the professional killer was coming through the doors: one constructor, 2 super badass loaders, over 2 dozen soldiers in front of the super badass loaders, and 4 BUL loaders in front of the soldiers as cover.

The door opened and the lavender shinobi came out through it. After a couple steps in, 2 PWR loaders dropped in from above and behind her to prevent her from running.

"WE GOT YOU CORNERED, THERE IS NO WHERE ELSE FOR YOU TO RUN!", a random soldier said before 2 engineers with exo suits at Twilight's 9 and 3 O' clock high, jumped at her from a crate. Just when the BUL loaders, PWR loaders, and engineers were all about to melee her simultaneously in the last second, Twilight made a very faint smirk and a chuckle.

In the span of a split-second, she disappeared, leaving another disk shaped object on the floor with the words: "Fetch! ^-^" (She carved the symbols into the mines herself). In another few milliseconds, the disk launched itself into the air while spinning right in front of their faces.

BOOM

In a flash of white light, the chemical got on to the offenders, ate away at the hardware of the bots, and the faces and skulls of the engineers.

CRASH

While they were distracted earlier by Twilight's holographic clone, she snuck through the air ducts and out of the one above the door her clone went through. This allowed Twilight to use her katana and cut a huge hanging ceiling light, hanging by a thick, metal pole.

She went with the ceiling light and it crushed a super badass loader on the right and killed half of the soldiers in the room. The shattered glass and dust from the light flew everywhere and stunned the other half of the soldiers in the room.

The other super badass loader charged its' guns before,

STAB

Twilight threw her katana straight at the loader's eye, killing instantly as it fell back. The millisecond after she threw it, she jumped over at the leftover soldiers in the room and prepared her Slag RMR-30 carbine,

RATATATATA, her slag rounds killed a fourth of the soldiers as she was airborne. With them stunned even more with the slag, she put away her emptied carbine on her back, and took out her tanto from her hind leg,

SMASH, she used her hind legs to smash a soldier's ribcage in the front and body slide on the corpse. She used her weight and the frictionless surface to kick the body towards a crowd of 3 soldiers to topple them. The kick was followed by a back flip. She landed on another soldier with her hind hooves around his neck,

SNAP, goes his neck, twisted all the way with her hinds.

The purple pony quickly rolled over to another soldier who just got orientated by the slag.

KICK

Twilight did a tornado kick to the left temple, he had a helmet on, but it wasn't strong enough resist a fatal head injury from Twilight's hind hoof. Landing on her hind hooves, she managed to do a cart wheel on the side, disarm a soldier's assault rifle, and ,

STAB, right in the back of the neck when he got forced to tilt downwards.

Another soldier tried to bayonet her from behind, but Twilight turned around counter-clock in a millisecond to high kick the gun out of his hands and into the air and twirl once more to

SLICE, right across the throat.

She grabbed the gun in the air with a right fore hoof as it fell and threw it like a spear at another soldier who was trying to get back up.

STAB, right chest.

Twilight tilted her head back to barely avoid a knife from the right, and soon followed a wrist grip and a dislocated shoulder to the offender from Twilight. The knife dropped and was soon caught by Twilight's right hoof.

STAB, right in the stomach.

She pulled the knife out and threw it at another soldier who pointed an assault rifle at her,

STAB, right in the throat with blood gushing everywhere.

A soldier with another rifle from behind her said: "SAY CHEESE BI-uh!" before,

STAB, another Twilight appeared from the right and stabbed him in the right side of the neck.

CRACK, she kicked behind to break yet another soldier's lower leg, kick the gun out of his hands, and

KICK, right in the wind pipe, crushing it.

She teleported a short distance, right next to another soldier to karate chop his plastic gun in half, elbow him in the face, and catch one of the broken parts of the gun,

STAB, right in the eye with the sharp part of the gun part. She did a twirl kick to trip another behind her and another flip,

CRUSH, to land one of her hind hooves on his neck, crushing it.

Two exo suited engineers tried to punch her simultaneously from opposite sides, but Twilight, within a couple milliseconds, blocked them both with her fore hooves by diverting the kinetic energy around her. Even before they can finish their punch, she flipped her body to do a fore-hoof stand.

KICK, right in the faces simultaneously with an upside-down split-kick, sending them flying a few feet back. She clamped her hinds together to catch an arm of another exo suit and throw him over herself to send him flying forward. She did another flip to land on her hinds again to almost receive another exo-suit punch before diverting the energy yet again with her left fore-hoof. Twilight took out her tough looking tanto with a right fore,

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH", she used the knife to cut the whole wrist open, he stumbled back to hold his huge gaping wound from bleeding out but to no avail. While the engineer was turning white from massive blood loss, Twilight reappeared behind the second charging engineer,

STAB

Right in the back

CRACK, Twilight diverted the energy of the third exo-suit's arm yet again but this time it broke apart. She grabbed the back of the engineers neck and used her other bare fore-hoof to rip out his throat.

During all that hoof-to-hand combat, the constructor deployed at least Nine GUN loaders, 3 turrets, 2 ION loaders, 5 HOT loaders, and a Badass war loader.

Twilight put her hooves together and her horn started to glow.

Suddenly the katana in the eye of a dead super badass loader started to produce purple lightning everywhere.

RATATATATATATATA, the sword's hilt between Twilight and the loaders started to act like a magnet, pulling all the bullets into a ball of lead above it. The lightning from the katana struck the ball and melted into a sphere of purple, hot plasma.

"HOW'S THIS!?", Twilight yelled before,

BOOM

Twilight directed the explosion of extremely hot lead at the constructor's army, leaving everything, but the stunned constructor taken out. She jumped high in the air and used her magic to retrieve her katana like a Jedi as she did.

SLASH!

With out looking, she ran towards the open entrance of the craft.

BOOM went the constructor.

An osprey however flew in with one of its' sides towards the door. When the barrels of the minigun on the side turned:

RATATATATATA BOOM

"One more osprey to go", I thought: I was the one of the last three buzzards in the sky right now, though we only had three enemy hostiles left in the air: the osprey, the sinking drop barge, and the unidentified aircraft. I saw the last osprey next to the dying drop barge.

RATATATATATA BANG I fired my miniguns and the last missile.

BOOM, goes the tail wing on the osprey.

I suddenly heard something grapple to the bottom of my buzzard. I looked in my left mirror to see Twilight propelling herself up on to the leftside of my buzzard.

"You took out a whole entire drop barge full of hostiles by yourself?"

CRASH, the drop barge hit the side of the gorge.

"Yep.", she said as she put away her grapple and rope on her flank.

BOOM, I flinched from the bright, loud, and huge explosion.

I ECHOed to my allied buzzards: "Where heading back to the final line of defense guys...", I sighed, looking at the last incoming aircraft on my radar, "...we aren't done yet!"

"Is it bad?", Twilight said, sitting on the edge of the side of my buzzard with a carbine in her lap.

"We got one more to deal with,", I kept looking at the incoming red blip on my radar, "...and something tells me that this one means business."

Twilight responded with pull-back on her RMR-30, "I presume we need to put in everything we mother fucking got then, huh?"

"According to the velocity of the unidentified aircraft, it looks like it will heading towards the North West of the tower: the area where we first came in yesterday."

"So this craft is just a drop off?"

"Most likely, and since we don't have anything else coming, we are going to have to assume the worst, by putting everything we got towards that area from the command center."

I looked at my radar again to find a couple land blips on Brick's position.

BEEP BEEP BEEP

"Shit, I am nearly empty on fuel, looks like we are going to do this on our feet and hooves!"

During me and Twilight's fight, Brick and his bandits were able to take out all the Hyperion that came from the crashed drop barge, but there were still more infantry coming from the Northwest, trying to bust through.

"We are almost out of fuel Brick, I am making a landing on the top of the slab tower!"

"Meet me on the burrowed bunker slab."

"IT'S NOT OVER PRICKS, GET FUCKING COMFORTABLE!", Brick was was on top of the bunker, burrowed into the rubble.

"SUP Brick!", Brick turned around to see me and Twilight running and galloping towards him.

"Nothing much, besides the fact that they are almost through that wall over there, we could use some support from my badassest slabs!"

I looked back at the tower, "We also have that metal storm turret, I shot one, so we should have two loads of bullets left. Damn that thing uses up a lot of bullets per volley, it is going to take a while before it recharges", I turned my head forward, "We are going to need to save at least one series of bullets on the drop ship."

I took out the Acidic AS70 LMG from my back and pointed at the tower, "Brick, go and make sure that metal storm turret is secure through out this fight."

He patted me on the shoulder, "Anything for you slab!", he said and jogged away.

I looked to Twilight who was just finishing adjusting the sights on her carbine with her magic, "Stick with me, Twyla.", I said, pulling back the handle on my LMG.

"We have anti-tank barricades up ahead, so there should only be infantry coming.", I thought, waiting in a fortified building on the second floor. I put my gun through a small crack in a wall while Twilight had her's through a boarded window on my left.

BANG BANG BANG, the enemy shot smoke grenades over the wall.

BOOM, the two walls on the sides of the drop barge blew up as soon as the wall of smoke came up.

Suddenly, a sound erupted from the sky,

BOOM BOOM BOOM, "That's right he can send loaders from the sky.", I reminded myself, when the satellite dropped three ION loaders in front of the wall of smoke

"You know what to do boys!", Twilight ECHOed to our bandits.

The ION loaders all formed a single shielded barrier, "Here comes the cavalry!", I said right when I saw the space platform launch more troops in front of the ION loaders: 5 PWR loaders followed by the Hyperion soldiers out in the open.

Jack ECHOed in: "You better give in now while you have a-WHAT!", he said when the unexpected happened:

"Banzai bitches!", Twilight said at the same time when the parts of the tall grass next to the enemy the started to rise. That's because the grass wasn't really grass, it was apart of an old Japanese World War 2 tactic called foxholes: Twilight, out of nowhere, came up with the idea earlier: to cover the big craters in the dirt with grass-camo wooden floor boards and put ambush items under them like psychos.

The first wave consisted of nine, equidistant foxholes with one psycho in each. The hatchets sliced the ION loaders into nothing but scrap metal.

"Their shields are down, now's our chance!", "Kill em.'", I ordered calmly into the ECHO.

RATATATATATATATATATATATA, While the PWR loaders were distracted with the psychos behind them, I and Twilight ended them with a slag and acid combo to the ones turned around to melee the psychos. The Double Barrel HMG's AP rounds just tore the ones who kept facing forward with their fans (too bad for the psychos). The 14+ Hyperion personnel of course shared the same fate, but about a quarter managed to find cover behind some fallen loaders and open foxholes.

"U mad Jack?", I Trolled after I laid down a barrage of bullets at the last loader

"I... want... to... see... their fucking blood... painted across that tower!", Jack ECHOed.

BOOM BOOM BOOM, the station above fired more troops down below under the cover of the smoke.

RATATATATA BANG, Twilight got a perfect headshot to a soldier who stuck his head out. I took out a mortar from my pouch: it was heavy but I was able to bang it on the sill to arm it and chuck it at a Hyperion-filled foxhole.

"TAKE COVER!", I said, knowing that the explosion will be huge.

BOOM, flying pieces of human flesh went flying everywhere. One of the shrap metals went through another soldiers abdomen and another through a soldier's skull.

The smoke immediately dissipated to reveal over three dozen GUN loaders, 5 ION loaders, a dozen HOT loaders, a swarm of surveyors, and as if that wasn't bad enough: a mother fucking Badass constructor.

"See how you like this!", I thought right before reaching into my back pocket for my holographic smart phone.

We had four more unopened foxholes in the ground, but this time instead of psychos: .50 Cal BMG Dahl machine gun turrets.

The grass-camo floorboards ascended to reveal the turrets to them in front of our buildings.

"Mow em' down!", Twilight requested before I pressed another button on my smartphone in response.

"You... Fucking... Asshole!", Jack coldly ECHOed, before the turret's laser sights turn on.

"Bub bye!"

RATATATATATATATATA, the combination of our guns and the turrets quickly mowed down a third of the Gunloaders

Before we could kill any more, Jack's ION loaders jumped in front to form a strong, single, temporary shield. The loaders then fired back.

RATATATA *click* *click*, My LMG ran out of ammo in its magazine, so I took out my Shock VA Assault Rifle. Before I could pull the charging handle, I failed to notice a surveyor heading towards me.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, my shield went out before I had little time to barely dodge a HOT loader's fire ball coming through the crack in the wall I shot through.

"NOBODY COOKS MY BOYFRIEND AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!", Twilight yelled at the loaders before putting in a new magazine in her RMR and shooting the surveyors and HOT loaders who nearly killed me.

"Ow!", Even though I dodged the fireball, I have gotten a pretty bad singe on my right elbow.

Just when their big shield was already about 2%:

CRASH, a GUN loader crashed through the roof.

I quickly pressed the magazine release on my combat rifle before making a 180 while taking out my .22 magnum pistol with a left,

BANG BANG BANG RATATATATATATA

I and Twilight fired a couple .22 magnum rounds (RMR and PMR use same magnum calibre) into the chest of the firing loader.

"AH FUCK!", I screamed in pain from a rifle bullet going through my left shoulder, forcing me backwards into a corner. My health bar was at 57% already and slowly decreasing from blood loss.

"BLAKE!", Twilight came dashing over to me on the floor.

"Ow, no big deal... Fuck!", I got up, holding my wound with my pistol in my right hand.

"DOH!", I reacted to the pain of Twilight, ramming a health syringe in my arm. My health quickly climbed and my wound immediately closed.

"Getting a 7.6 through your shoulder is a big fuckin' deal.", Twilight looked at me with a dead-serious look in her eyes.

"LOOK OUT!", I raised my PMR-30 while Twilight rolled out of the way,

BANG BANG BANG

I shot two of the five surveyors who flew in from a back window in formation.

RATATATA RATATATA, Twilight was reactant enough however, to switch to her corrosive SMG while rolling, and put a couple round through each of the rest of them after landing on her hind hooves.

I looked out the front window to see we have taken out 4/5s of the assault, but the badass constructor looked at me with a light going off on it. I saw it launch some kind of missile into the air.

"Fucking RUN!", Twilight yelled before we ran towards the back window in response.

BOOM, we dashed and jumped out the window to barely get singed by the constructor's tiny nuke: powerful enough to level the whole building behind us to rubble.

We both landed in an "L"-shaped alley way.

The constructor created two ION loaders to protect itself and its' remaining loaders from the .50 BMG rounds while it charged its' lazer,

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM, the badass's lazer went from its' left to right to destroy the row of turrets I activated.

"That constructor needs to go!", I said while we were prone on the pile of rubble.

"On it, get your launcher ready, I got an idea!", Twilight said before her horn glowed to make a purple outline around her katana.

I got out my IMI before Twilight held the handle of her katana like a spear.

She suck her head out of cover to throw the katana while yelling: "HA!"

Her katana struck the ground between the two ION loaders. "Bōruraitoningu! (Ball Lightning!)", Twilight yelled at the top of her lungs while putting her hooves together.

BOOM, the hilt of the katana made an explosion of incredibly bright, purple lighting, which wiped out the entire shield,

"NOW!"

I got myself out of cover to get a shot at the constructor constructing another bot, "It's vulnerable, here's my chance!", I thought, aiming my rocket launcher at the eye.

BANG, the force of the rocket's ignition forced me back a bit.

the surveyors strategically got in the way of the rocket, "SHIT!"

BOOM, "Should've seen that coming.".

I ducked and went to get another rocket from my inventory, "I'm go in for anothe-"

"Watch out slab!", Brick ECHOed

All of the barrels on the metal storm turret launched themselves,

One of them broke apart above the badass constructor and made what appears to be a cluster bomb.

BOOM

The bombs made a huge crater of craters where the badass constructor stood after the huge amount of explosives going off all at once.

BOOM BOOM BOOM, the rest of the missiles broke apart and obliterated the rest of the armored vehicles and the infantry, leaving only the sound of the drop ship coming in.

I can hear Jack breath furiously into his ECHO device: "Let's see how you like my friend Shiva, now fucking DIE ALREADY!"

"Here it comes!", I said, putting a new magazine in my corrosive AS70 LMG and cocking it.

"Give it all you got!", Twilight responded before the drop ship started shooting a wall of smoke grenades over the wall before it made directly over its' destination: the wall. We can hear the sound of what remains of the wall and dead drop barge getting crushed as the aircraft made a landing on it.

"That MS turret of ours is going to take a while to load again, I guess we just gotta hold out until it makes it."

Suddenly we felt something big was coming our way from the smoke, considering the tremors.

Out of the smoke, a massive loader, the height of the radio control tower, stopped to scan the area. Not only was it tall and blue, it had four grabbing arms complete with some kind of missile pod on its' shoulder and a laser gun on the other.

"Shoot it!", I yelled into the ECHO.

RATATATATATATATATATATA

It stumbled back a bit from getting a hit a bunch, but before we could do anymore damage, the loader up its' two upper arms to form a shield. While the shield was absorbing all the kinds of bullets, Shiva charged its' laser on its right shoulder.

BOOM, the laser blew up a whole building full of allied bandits.

"Shit!", Twilight said when she saw the missile pod opened.

BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG

Dozens of suicide surveyors came flying out and over a dozen came flying towards us.

"Oh fuck!", was what I said before I switched to my slag pump-action shotgun while Twilight put a one way shield around us with her magic.

BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG

The pellets took out over three-fourths of the incoming projectiles,

BOOM BOOM BOOM

Twilight's shield was luckily blast proof and we got rid of all the missiles, the others unfortunately took out over half of the remaining bandits and buildings of the small town, but the rest didn't give up to try to put every single bullet at the loader.

Suddenly the loader dropped its' shield and started walking towards our position. It crushed a couple bandit under its' feet while it walked.

"Fucking RUN!", Twilight said before I followed her lead.

Once the loader got close, it crushed a building apart of the alley way we were running through with a leg. The loader lifted one of its' arms up and began to strike.

"SHOOT ITS ARM!", I said before we both obeyed myself,

RATATATATATATA BOOM

We shot our carbines from the tip of the arm, all the way down to the base to make the loader flinch back.

BOOM BOOM RATATATATATATA

Two buzzards came flying in to shoot missiles and miniguns at Shiva, but the machine was fast enough to open its' missile pods and shoot a homing projectile at each,

BOOM BOOM, the buzzards crashed into the mountain but they brought us enough time to turn right into another alley. After going through about a hundred feet of maze, I saw Brick running towards us at the other end of another alley before I said something: "Hey Brick!"

"Slab!"

"We need to take that thing out!", I yelled, before I saw Twilight hatch another idea in her head.

"I got a little trick for that fucker!", Twilight huddled us a little together with her fore hooves.

After the buzzards distracted it, Shiva went to do other things like destroy what is left of our defenses and rip apart bandits to shreds with its' powerful grabbing arms.

"Where are they?", Jack Echoed while the giant loader was just annihilating the Northwest part of Thousand Cuts.

I whistled loudly from the front of our destroyed .50 cal turrets: "Lookin' for someone?!", I yelled, putting up a middle finger in front of my other arm.

"I am going to break that fucking finger of yours!", Jack ECHOed before the giant robot charged at me.

I smiled and waved at it before it punched right through my holographic projection Twilight made, "So gullible.", I thought and chuckled else where. My clone disappeared to reveal the katana in the dirt Twilight threw earlier.

"Another clone?", Jack Echoed.

"HA!", Twilight put her hooves together from nearby.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, the blade lit up and started making the bot spasm uncontrollably from the eridium lightning.

"It is your turn Brick!", I thought right before from behind: a hammer attached to a string wrapped around the robot's leg. Brick from a top of a building yanked the string to send Shiva flying upwards and twirling in the air.

"I'M RIGHT ABOVE YA!", I taunted straight above in the air with my IMI rocket launcher,

BANG BOOM, the rocket didn't destroy it, but it did give it a nasty push downwards onto its' back. I suddenly exploded into a mess of smoke to disappear above the loader. Out of the smoke came Twilight's giant shuriken, it expanded three times its' size before it broke apart into six, equal, smaller, medium-sized shuriken. Before the loader was able to get up, the shuriken changed course and locked all the limbs to the ground simultaneously between the blades.

It wouldn't hold it forever, but it did give Twilight above a window. The katana below lit purple and began spinning towards the smoke cloud until the handle was caught with a hoof by the element of magic: Twilight.

"YOUR FINISHED!", Twilight screamed after she dropped from the smoke cloud.

"Shit!", is what Twilight said when the laser turret on the shoulder started charging. With the plan failing, Twilight did a gravity back-flip to dodge the laser. She landed and slid back a few feet on all fours in front of the four-armed loader. With all its' might, the giant loader, simultaneously broke all the shuriken holding its' arms down into pieces.

As soon as it lifted its' torso area up, it opened its' missile pod.

BANG BANG BANG, it fired three explosive surveyors at Twilight.

RATATATATATA, BOOM BOOM

I fired my VA Assault rifle at a surveyor and two of them exploded, leaving the last one with Twilight.

Before it was close to Twilight, she used the combination of her magnetic katana and TK magic, to make the missile orbit around her and accelerate to escape-velocity back at the missile pod, faster than it was supposed to go,

BOOM, the countered projectile destroyed the missile shoulder attachment. One of the lower metal arms extended towards Twilight, but she rolled to the right to dodge the vertical smack to the ground. The other arm extended to make a horizontal swipe at the ground, but Twilight jumped and landed on the arm. She galloped up the arm while the laser gun began to charge.

BOOM, the Twilight on the arm was only a hologram and destroyed its' own arm. The invisible Twilight was on the other lower arm.

SLASH!, right before the lazer gun got another shot, she sliced the gun off with her katana, making it useless. She did a roll to absorb of the impact on the ground behind Shiva.

The blue loader did a 180 with its' torso to make a swipe at Twilight with one of its' upper arms.

CRASH, suddenly, a buzzard was thrown from out of no where and into the loaders face, ripping it apart from its' legs and into a rocky wall, right by where I was standing.

"My buzzard, Seriously?", I Echoed to Brick.

"Sorry slab, it was the only thing I could throw!"

I mentally sighed and spoke to myself, "Well, it it not like I am going to-".

CRASH!, as soon as I let my guard down, the loader, crawling with its' remaining two upper arms, came out of the pile of rubble.

"BLAKE!", Twilight screamed and galloped towards me.

I rolled right to dodge a vertical swipe, "Five seconds!".

I sprinted towards Twilight, "Three seconds"

The loader gained on me, "Two!"

I got out my holographic phone, "ONE!"

I tackled Twilight to the side and into a deep crater to dodge an incoming swipe, "NOW!"

I aimed my laser at the loader and pressed the button before we rolled down together down the biggish crater.

The MS turret turned on its' laser sight and aimed at Shiva.

BANG, it fired all its' ammo almost all at once.

I made sure I was the one on the bottom when we hit the bottom of the crater and "Ow fuck!", I tried to hide the intense back pain by hugging and kissing her hard on the lips.

In what seem almost in an instant and slow motion:

BANG BOOM, we closed our eyes to the huge explosion the loader made upon impact from the massive amount of bullets all at once.

We broke the kiss when Twilight whispered with tears in her eyes, she looked more beautiful than ever with the glow of the fire on her face in the night: "I thought I was going to lose you.".

I made some tears as well "W-we are going to make it, okay?"

We turned our heads to see Brick at the edge of the crater, "That was just fucking, badass. The way you slabs kissed each other without even looking at the explosion! You are a badass couple!".

"Ow, it was nothing Brick, Ow!", god that landing hurt.

"Are you alright Blake?", Twilight said lifting me up.

"I am just glad you weren't hurt my love.", I kissed her on the lips again.

"What the fuck just happened?", Jack Echoed furiously.

"Oh well, I don't know! I think I just saw your giant smurf at the end of this blade right here, shoulder deep!", Twilight taunted with my world's knowledge.

"GAH!"

"Cool story bro!", I said back.

"SHUT UP!", Jack hung up.

"Rage quit!", Brick responded then we were all laughing our asses off.

"Let's get back to Sanctuary!", I said while Twilight was still carrying me.

Brick was still laughing when Twilight said something "How many bandits do we have anyway?"

"I dunno, too tired to care.".

"Let's find a way to build up an assault later after we rest.", I said before the sun came up to just barely warm us up.
