Pokemon war
A glance of the future
"Medic" I shouted with all my strength, "medic!" my second shout was absorbed by the sound of another mortar shell explosion who were landing around us. The front outpost was in ruins, all platoon 77 of Razor force unfurl fro out its' remains in a last defense attempt, "The rescue is on its' way, commander" yelled Tomo, who was hiding with the communication behind one of the surviving walls. Five of the Beedrills dived again in an attempt to knock off the head to one of us, at the edge of my sight I saw Zak in the machine-gun station spraying the air with the machine-gun in an attempt to knock done same of them, "Die, you disgusting clones, die!". He managed to hit one of the Beedrills one hit, and then it started diving towards the ground the bullets penetrated him again, half of his body was pierced by them and three of his legs were cut of by the machine-gun fire, his orange blood spitting out of him then he crashed into the wall.
I look around myself, behind my Johns kept bleeding badly from his chipped off leg and flopping on the ground then Taylor and his Ivysaur were trying unsuccessfully to nurse him "Enough! Enough! I cannot stand the pain any longer! Aaaahhhh!" he kicked Johns with his unabridged foot and tried to reach to his personal weapon, Ivysaur acted quickly grabbed him with his vines and stopped him, Taylor jumped on his back quickly "Ivysaur don't free him, he will try to commit suicide because he can't stand the pain! Use you sleep powder on him to make him past out, it's the only way I cane treat him!", "Saur!" the sleep powder did helped and Taylor managed to put a tourniquet on the wounded leg.
I raised my look to my right there Sargios' body was still laying chipped in two and partly burned by a mortar explosion that hit him directly after he was cut in two by a Skarmorys' steel wing attack.
"Amphy, we must take out thus Beedrills before they will take us out, Fire!" Sergeant Mary started shouting with her Mag into the air and her Ampharos joined her with high wave of thunderbolts, the Mag missed but the lightning didn't, he took all four with one hit, then they were hit by the lightning their body swelled and exploded, spraying a rain of burned orange organs to the ground.
"Nice hit Amphy…Tomo, where is our rescue god demitted? The entire company is being slaughtered here!" "They will by here any second!" Tomo dived again towards the communication system again and talked into the microphone quickly "This is Razor77! This is Razor 77! Where the heck is our rescue?" "This is Trigger Alpha, Razor… the rescue is suppose to be there any moment now," answered a calm and imperturbable voice in the communication system "That are you talking abut Trigger Alpha?! We are being slaughtered here and there is no rescue! Who the hell did you send?" "You have nothing to wary about we send 'Slash'".
The mortar fire only became stronger in our direction; I look at my bleeding shoulder, I could see my shoulder bone fro a hole in it, I tried to move but the pain paralyzed my body. The fire and the explosions have not stopped, but suddenly I understood that this is the end and all became quiet.
I am going to die here, on a desert hill of a continent I have never seen in my life, in a lost and hopeless war, so far away from my home in Saladon near the bodies' of my childhood, life and arms friends.
The silences was steered by another mortar shell, which landed beside my, suddenly I realized where I was; I rolled half a turn into a small canal and closed my eyes, suddenly I opened them again, I felt the ground moving and shacking, stronger and stronger… now it was clear to me, they were here.
Thirty-three feet away from me a huge jet of dust and sand blazed into the air with a lot of noise and a powerful roar…, "Bless the desert spirits 'Slash'!" sergeant Mary yelled in joy. The dust cloud could not cloak the shadow of the enormous Onix behind him. I raised my head and saw another attack wave diving towards us, six Beedrills and four Scythers, Zak have seen them as well and turned his heavy machine-guns in their direction "Another wave, this time Scythers as well, keep your head low!" he opened fire and knocked off tow of the Beedrills. However, the Scythers multiplied themselves and Zak remained shooting into the doubles. Ampharos missed as well and it seemed that the remains of Razor 77 are going to be finished for good.
"Fire!" strong and accurate shots sounded from behind my back, they were aimed at the diving Scythers, I turned around to see that it was and emerging from within the dust cloud, I saw the head of the rescue squadron- two troopers running in my direction, one of them carrying a rocket launcher, shooting to the air. The other was carrying a shotgun, aiming into the air, shooting and crushing the skull to one of the Scythers, recharging and shooting again in a Beedrill who circled too low.
"Lets go Razor, we're taking you home!" yelled the soldier with the shotgun and shot again hitting another Scyther, "Good to see you major, all the platoon retreat, retreat right now, retreat!" everybody started retreating toward the rescue squad, the major polled out a pokeball and throw him in the air "Charles, we need your flamethrower for cover, go!". An enormous Charizard come out from within the pokeball and rose quickly to the air shooting an aurums flamethrower that burned several clones in midair…
I lost a lot of blood and already started to see spots, on the barge of unconsciousness, everybody started to retreat, and I could not but the major saw me in the canal and ran towards me, "Zed we have to get out of here quick, they're closing dawn on us!" "There is one more over here!" the major answered in return and ducked towards me. In a close look, I could see that he was younger than I thought, maximum 19 years old, he had thorny black hear, black eyes, dark skin and a determent face, he crabbed me and I past out.
Then I opened my eyes everything was vary dark but then I looked closer I could see that I'm moving, the ceiling over my head was dark and arched, lake in a tunnel, I looked around and saw that I'm on a stretcher, a stretcher that's moving on its on. By my side Johns was in another stretcher, still moving in pain from his bandaged leg that I could hardly see. I looked to the other side and saw the tunnel walls moving quickly, my shoulder were bandaged in a bloody bandage.
I immediately tried to sit but an enormous twinge of pain went fro my shoulder, as if it has been pierced by hot iron, I laid back in a sigh of pain. "You shouldn't move if you don't want the Beedrill poison to spread fro out your shoulder…" I looked again to my left and saw him; it was that major, Zed, the one I saw on the battlefield, he was running beside the stretcher with the shotgun in his hands, he did not looked at me, because he was concentrating in running in the tunnel. "What…What is going on? Where am I? What… happened to the rest of the platoon?" "Don't worry Douglas, we're behind you" hiring the sergeants' voice made my stretch my neck and look towards my feet, behind the stretchers she and the rest of the surviving platoon were running by the dark tunnel wall. "How… how can it be that the stretchers are moving?" "The stretchers don't move by themselves…" Zed told my, "they're moving because you're on Onixs' back" I starched my neck upwards and saw upside-down the back of the stone snack, on which the stretchers were laying.
"A.J. that's the distains for the drop of point?" asked Zed some one in the front. "One more mile!" answered to him a voice from the head of the column, "and guess who the pike up is…" "I can't believe it…" Zed mumbled to himself, pulled out a computerized radio from his back pocket, and activated him. I saw that on the screen appeared the image of a pilot with a helmet on her head, it was deficient to see her face but I didn't missed the deep purple eyes that appeared on the screen "Tansa, I knew it would be you!" "Who did you expected, Zik, Santa Claus?" answered Tansas' voice on the radio, the connection was extremely bad and it was hard to here that she was saying clearly, "I didn't know you were let go out of the hospital so quickly…" "You know I hate recovery phases." Zed answer putted a smile on Tansas' face that was immediately erased. "What's your status down there?" "Eleven survived-two badly injured, five with shallow wounds and one who needs a dose of B type antibodies" "I'll prepare the team; emerge at the correct spot and not a meter near by, understood major?" "Understood lieutenant" the radio was turned off and hidden away, Zed pushed him into his back harness "how many were you sergeant?" he asked Mary, which caught up with him "About twenty sir…" "Were you in charge?" "No lieutenant Richey Green was the commander, but he was the first one to be killed… a Scyther clone burst into the outpost speared him first, lifted him into the air and tear him to bits in front of us. After that the Rhydons attacked and the platoon completely collapsed…," she said lowering her head and covering her eyes with her helmet. "I didn't know what to do sir… I... I'll probably be court-martialed for this…" "It's not your fault sergeant Mary" Zed severed her. "I'll see to this that you wouldn't be court-martialed for this, the ones who should take the blame are these idiots that send you into the ambush, you couldn't do anything accept surviving, and you managed to save half of your platoon." Mary looked at Zed with hope and smiled "Tha…thank you sir" "You welcome sergeant", I looked at Mary who returned to the back of the column and then I looked towards Zed again "You should keep your head low, we reached the drop of point, private". Suddenly without a warning, the Onix started to climb upwards and we burst to the surface. The orange desert twilight blinded me, but I managed to see the Black-hawk helicopters what waited on the ground with their motors running, the medical teams immediately ran towards us. Then they lifted my stretcher I saw Zed getting away from me, in the confusion I was already in the chopper then I saw him again, he was talking to that Tansa, with which he talked on the radio, "Major Zed!" I shouted and he apparently heard me and turned towards me "Thank you for saving my there…but who are you?" he only crossed his hands and smiled, the chopper door closed in front of me…
"I don't agree with this!" Zed yelled and hit his fist on the table, the five officers who were sitting in comfort in their armchairs turned towards him in an angry look. It was obvious they were not pleased that the operational officer did not even bowered to clean the bloodstains from his shirt before he burst in and protest their orders "That's the meaning of this interference major?" "You wouldn't blame the sergeant for this, she ant the one who screwed up, you are!" one of the colonels stood up and leaded in Zeds' direction "you batter watch your mouth major… the conclusions are clear, Sergeant Mary Lobrsky assumed command after the death of the lieutenant, she was the one responsible for the welfare of platoon 77. She is the one that failed and because of her we have nine soldiers and five pokemon KIA, one soldier without a leg, and…" "And eleven soldiers and two pokemon which survived a three hour siege in the ruins of an outpost… you don't get it, do you?" Zed hit the table again, "The sergeant deserves a medal for managing to keep half of her platoon alive, and you are the ones who should be blamed!" "Silence major!" "No, you are the ones who send Razor 77 to a suicide mission in an abandoned outpost, in which there was clearly a trap!" one of the generals rose from his cheer in anger "That's enough major Watson!" Zed only got more annoyed "Especially you general Graph, you sacrificed an entire platoon to be cannon-fodder!" "One more wards major and I promise you that you would regret it" "You're all guilty, you only sit here on your sofas and send soldiers to die out there and then you send me with 'Slash' to pick up that's left of them and I'm not coning do this any more!". All five generals jumped from their sits in anger and started yelling on Zed "You'll pay for this major!" shouted Graph "I'll see to that that you would never be promoted in this army, maybe I even downgrade you for this effrontery!" "I don't care general, you know that…" Zed pulled out his shotgun loaded it and fired into the ceiling of the big room, the commanders hushed and Zed put the shotgun back into its' sheath on his back, he stepped to the table and pulled from his shoulders his major ranks and throw them on the table "Wha…what are you doing major?". He striped his bloody mantle of him but kept his shotgun on his back along with his grey vest. "There's no major in this room sir!" He throw his bloody mantle on the table, "I'm only a private…sir" Zed turned around and left the room, the commanders staid inside the room still aghast then two armed guards burst into the room with loaded rifles in their hands "What was that shot, who shoot it?"
Zed left the room and turned into the corridor "Let's go A.J.!" A.J. jumped from the plastic cheer, on which he fall asleep, and ran after Zed in an attempt to catch up with him, "What happened there, what did they say, what do they want to do?", Zed stopped, he turned around and grabbed A.J.s' hand and gave him the commend pin "Congratulations… A.J. you are the new commander of 'Slash' the underground search and rescue unit." "What, what do you mean, aaaahhhh you got permuted, I knew it!" Zed shake his had and continued walking towards the exit, "No? Then that happened in there?" "They wanted to downgrade my…" What?"
"But they were too late… now I'm a private under your commend." A.J looked completely stunned his face turned white and he started to jabber, "N…No, you can't do that!" "I have already done it" A.J. stayed with his mouth open and did not know what to say "Zik, Zik!" Tansa run towards them and stopped, "I heard what happened, please tell me it isn't so!" "I'm sorry Tansa, ma'am, I have already done it." "Oho, Zik, why, tell me why!" "I had to do it Tansa…" Tansa got pissed off and grabbed Zed by his shirt "Liar, they made you throw the ranks, at lest say this Zik!" A.j. crabbed Tansa and pulled her of Zed "Will you relax Moormasa, What he has done is irreversible!" "Of curse it is, Zik, go there and talk to them!" "It wouldn't help, any way, would you relics a pit… and why do you call him Zik? You know his name is Zed now, right Zed?" Zed leaned on the wall and sorrow filed his eyes "I hope not A.J…, I do not want to believe that they turned me into a complete war machine…I want to find the 'me' from before all this… (Sigh)…from before a year ago…"
