Hello everyone, its been a LONG while since I was on , but well here I am and I have another story.
This story is a cross between Gears of War and MLP:FIM and you can find it on DevaintArt.
I would like to thank Ancient2Fox, Golden COG Dignity, and Gh0st's buddy for inspiring me make my own.
I would likes place where Dom confronts the Jane Doe statue.
Lets get it on :D
Chapter 1 "Sacrifice"
"Maria." Dom said has he looked at the statue of Maria's family.
"Baby I'm sorry I couldn't bring you home." Dom said in a sad and defeated tone because he failed to bring her home.
"But you're with the kids now. Thats home yeah?" Dom said, hoping that Maria was listening to him, at least Maria is with the kids now and that someday Dom would see them again.
"I'll see all of you again one day." Said Dom that he will see his family again and that Maria is at least with her children that Dom wishes to be with .
Dom turns to his right and sees Marcus trying to get the pump flowing.
"Look, (points at Marcus) Marcus is busy saving the world again, so I gotta be there for him." He said has he lowered his head. Dom will help Marcus in every way he can and he will not let his best friend down.
"Sleep tight sweet heart." Was all he said has his eyes began to water.
He put his hands around his neck and undid his COG tags and held each end of the chain.
Dom stood up and put his GOG tags around the Jane Doe statute. Once he finished tying it around the neck of the statute he held his tags with his hands. Attached to his COG tags was a piece of a necklace.
The necklace belonged to Dom's wife Maria, he found her in the Inner Hollow of the Locust stronghold. She was inside of one of the Locust's torture capsules.
When Jack freed her from her prison, Dom remembered how she looked like on the day the Locust attacked. He held her in his arms, never wanting to let her go.
When Marcus called out his name Dom was brought back to reality and was devastated to see that Maria was tortured to point where she should be dead.
Marcus was the only one to see Maria like this and left so that Dom could be with his wife for the last time.
Dom said his final words to Maria before he euthanized her, in which he had no other choice and wanted to end her suffering.
Once he finished he removed her necklace and attached it to his COG tags so that he could be closer to Maria.
The only thing Dom had left of Maria was the picture they took on their wedding day.
What held Dom together was Marcus because he was his best friend from childhood and was practically part of the Santiago family; Dom considers Marcus as a brother.
Dom wasn't the only one that held him together. Anya was also his best friend when he and Marcus first joint the military.
Then came Sam who was another person that helped him from going into deeper depression. He promised Sam that he would protect her from the Formers and that there is no way in hell he would let her turn into one of them.
He let go of the tags has they fell gently backwards. He looked at the statue one last time before grabbing his Lancer and walked towers the others.
When he got there Sam and Anya were keeping watch for any signs of Lambent humans or grubs while Marcus was trying to get the fuel flowing.
Dom decided to help him out by taking out his knife and giving it to him.
Marcus accepted and took it and used it to pull it down hard on it and the lever moved downward and the fuel started to flow.
Dom left before Marcus had a chance to return his knife to him.
Marcus contacted Dizzy through the earpiece and told him that the pump started to flow and right after he finished screams of the once humans started to bang through the church's door.
"Something tell me thats not the quire." Dom said sarcastically and cracked a joke despite the situation they are in.
Then the door busted open and a wave of Formers came running at them, but were easily taken down but then more came out of the church through the window and over the walls.
The small ambushed lasted for about a few minutes with only minimal damage to their armor.
Once they were inside the church Marcus told Dom which is the quickest route to get to Dizzy and Jace. Dom told him that there was an old air raid shelter that was used during the Pendulum Wars.
Once they got there, there was a black stalk that was nothing more than a husk and underneath it was a pool of Imulsion along with Imulsion vapors.
"So Marcus your father says that its the Imulsion that is killing the planet right." Sam said has they were walking down the corridor to get to the elevator.
"Yeah maybe, we use to kill to get the stuff, now its killing us." Was all he said has they made it to the lift and before they could go down Jace contacted Marcus.
"Hey Marcus we got grubs on the way." Jace said worriedly.
"Alright is the tanker ready?" Said Marcus as they desperately need the fuel.
"She got holes Marcus and she's spewing fuel and I can't patch them all, she ain't going nowhere." Dizzy said.
Marcus knew that with out that fuel they would be in trouble, but with grubs on the way Marcus knew that they needed to get out fast.
"All right forget the tanker, just get to the pickup." Marcus said as he pulled down the lever of the lift and once it reached the bottom they all ran as fast as they could towards the pickup.
Once they were on top of the gas station they could see Dizzy and Jace waiting for them on top of the pickup.
"Marcus we're good to go." Shouted Dizzy, waving his arm towards them.
Before Marcus and the others could get to the truck the gate that led to the tunnel was blown open and several Savage Drones, Grenadiers and Boomers came out and started attacking.
"Shit everybody hold the line." Shouted Marcus as bullets started flying.
Sam popped several heads of the Drones and Grenadiers while Anya, Dom, and Marcus took down several Boomers and the smaller Locust.
After several minutes into the battle some of the Drones had hooks and were tossing them into the buidling.
"Shit we grabblers coming up." Shouted Dom as he shot down the hook, killing the Drone that was trying to get up.
"Alright Dom and Sam, take care of the grabblers, Anya you and me we'll take down the others." Shouted Marcus as the plan began to take effect, but each time they took down more grubs, more just kept coming out of the tunnel.
Jace and Dizzy were trying their best to provide covering fire while the others could get down.
When things couldn't get any worse Sam shouted something that would make the whole situation worse.
"Look out, Formers behind us." Shouted as she shot one in the head turning it into nothing but dust and ember.
Then minutes later stalks sprout out from the ground and came out several Lambent Drones and Drudges.
"Run! Get to the other side!" Shouted Marcus as he, Sam and Anya ran across the wooden planks of what was left of the roof while Dom provided covering fire.
But before doom could run and join the others a stalk pooped out and destroyed the only way for him to get to the other side. The stalk cut clean through the tanker, leabing the tanker that was attached to the truck unhooked.
"we're surrounded!" Shouted Sam as she was shooting several Formers.
"There's too many! We're not going to make it." Replied Dom switching to his Gnasher Shotgun since his Lancer ran out of ammo.
"Hold'em off! Just hold's off!" Marcus shouted through the gunfire and taking down two Drones/
Dom on the other hand wasn't doing to good has he killed a Former and before he could take down more his weapon ran out of ammo.
This made him frustrated and thought it to the side. Dom was seriously outnumbered as the Lambent were closing in on him.
Dom turned to see how the others were doing and they were having a tuff time dealing with the Locust and Lambent threat.
Dom looked down and saw that the truck that was once attached to the tanker was disconnected, then an idea hit him but it would cost him greatly but he would do all he can to make sure that his friends lived.
So with out thinking Dom jumped down to the ground hard, in whited Marcus saw through the corner of his eye and watch as Dom was getting something on the side of the truck.
"Dom." Marcus shouted which caught Dom's attention.
"Get out of there! Jump!" Shouted Dom and waving his arm, signaling him to jump off the building.
Dom turned his attention to a Boomer that was in his way, he shot it three times and it died before it fell to the ground.
Marcus was watching Dom before felling a bullet hit him on the side. Thanks to the armor the bullet didn't went though; Marcus switched his gaze back to the fight and rained hell on the grubs.
Dom threw his weapon to the side and got inside into the driver seat. He closed the door behind him and turned on the engine.
Once he got the ruck running he floored it into the tunnel, killing a Boomer.
Marcus was seeing and wondered why Dom just left into the tunnel.
"Dom!" "Dom! Where are you going?" Said Marcus through the earpiece. Dom heard him but didn't replied back, his face expression changed from stern to sad as he knew was was going to happen.
The battle was becoming more and more harder for Marcus, Sam, and Anya because more stalks and Lambent were coming.
Dom made it to the end of the tunnel and made a U-turn which made the truck facing towards the tunnel.
Dom took several deep breathes because he was not ready to die but he knew that without him doing this his best friend would die and the others he cared about would perish.
"Dom what the fuck are you doing?" Marcus said though the earpiece who was now frustrated because both enemies were shooting at hem and his friend just left without saying anything.
"Pullin' the plug on them Marcus!" "Jump will you! Do it!" These were his last words to his long time best friend as he punched the gas pedal all the way towards the tunnel.
The battle looked helpless for the Gears as they were trying desperately to fend them off.
Marcus, Anya and Sam heard the horn of the truck that Dom took into the tunnel.
Anya and Sam knew what Dom was going to do so they jumped off the roof, landing on a container then jumping onto the ground and running towards the truck while being chased by Formers; leaving Marcus behind.
"Never thought it would end like this huh? Huh Maria?" Screaming Dom to the heavens where Maria was; he exited the tunnel and was now ready to hit the gas staion.
"Dom! No!" Marcus screamed has he knew what Dom was about to do.
Before Dom closed his eyes, he saw a bright light and heard a voice that sounded almost demonic.
" You. Will. DIE" Was all Dom heard when everything around him went black.
The explosion was at the center of where the battle was taking place. Killing the Locust and the Lambent.
The huge explosion force Marcus to jump off the building and land on the container and kept rolling down and landing on the ground with fire and explosions around him.
Dizzy and Jace hid behind the pickup for cover, dripping to the ground.
The explosion started to spread though out all direction and consuming everything within its radius.
Anya and Sam tossed their Lancers to the side and rolled for cover behind a container. Sam barely maid when the explosion reached almost got her.
The screams of the burning Locust and Lambent filled the air as they were being burned alive. Some of them were crushed under the roof of the once gas station. The explosion reached where the fuel pumped followed, which made everything into hell.
Anya was the first to get up and see Marcuse struggling to get to his feet to get to Dom. Anya knew that Marcus would help Dom no matter what happen and she knew that Marcus won't stop.
Anya ran as fast as she could towards Marcus with Sam behind her.
Marcus managed to get up but fell back down desperately trying to get to Dom.
Anya managed to get to Marcus before he went through the fire.
"Marcus! He's gone!" She screamed trying to get Marcus to stop what he was doing.
"He's gone! There is nothing you can do." She screamed now pleading for Marcus to stop but he won't listen.
"Stop it." "Get off me." "Please stop it." "Goddamn it! Let me get him out of there." He yelled back now crawling but before he got any further the driver seat exploded leaving nothing but fire where the driver seat was once there.
Anya lowered her head to cover herself from the sight while Marcus just stared on what just happened.
Marcus was about to continue but was stopped by Anya.
"Its ok, Marcus… It's okay." She said trying to comfort Marcus.
"Come on, we gotta go now-your father still needs us." She said in a shaking voice trying not to cry for the lost of their friend.
Marcus, however, was having it harder because he did not want to believe that his childhood best friend was gone but he couldn't denied it anymore. Dom was goon and he wanted to cry but knew that it was not the time for that.
"… Dom/" Was all he said as he looked at the ground in sadness.
Anya was on his back trying to control herself for what happened. Sam on the other hand was having it harder on herself because she loved Dom more than a friend and now she will never get a chance to say to him how she really felt about him.
Sam lowered her head and let tears roll down her face.
