Hello. I'm Longneck Prime. In the year of 2017 in Terminator Online. The Resistance makes an Alliance to the Republic and representing them is Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker who chosen to stay on Earth to continue the fight. This Story continues on as the War progress. So you would be might recognizes some Terminators or Maps from Gmod. Later.
September 9, 2017. Gmod City Ruins. Sector 5, Border 17. 8:00 am.
Okay if you haven't seen the rest of the stories. The War is has slowed down as Skynet has decrease activity. Suppose it's a good thing. But It's not, The Machines may cooled off. But only 30% of it's armies still hunts the Resistance and Civilians alike. But the World of Terminator has gotten worse. Only 50,000 players and 3,,000,000 humans left.
Buildings are in ruins. Society doesn't exist in this game. Four months has pass which is 4 weeks in the real world. After the events when the Republic joins the fight against Skynet. Now they are winning more then 23 Borders as the Resistance are slowly pushing towards to San Francisco.
The Human Society had one chance to listen to someone like Sarah Connor of the warnings. But the Government and some people didn't want to hear it and now they paid the prince. The Greatest Weapon that can be used to Humans is Fear.
So things are bad. The Resistance were targeted from the front by Skynet and back by bad gangs. So things are bad. We are going to the stories of the civilian like a few characters we know.
On the streets of City Ruins is a white dog with a yellow collar and a backpack on his back. . It is Krypto the Superdog. He's the 2005 Cartoon Version. Except when he'd entered the game, he has lost powers and is now a regular dog on a hunt for food. Since he's normal. He can feel pain, But lucky he's still agile and strong to put up a fight against bad humans or terminators.
Krypto has searching everywhere in town. He went threw garbage cans, trash chutes. Only to find nothing. Then he sees the abandon Baltic Café, "Please let there be food here" said Krypto as he walks down to the café.
Krypto looked around to make sure no ones here. "Looks clear" He said as Krypto walks through the room and to the kitchen. Krypto looked into the kitchen quietly to not attract attention. He turns to the right and smiles, "Jackpot!".
Krypto laugh with joy as he had found a lot of freeze dry food that would last a while. Krypto gather as much as he can to fill up the backpack and left back home and would be back for another run.
Krypto was halfway home until he heard hard footsteps that make metal sounds. Krypto was pale as he knows what is and hid to the green emptied car. As Krypto hides, a T-600 armed with a mini-gun walks pass by the car Krypto is hiding behind in. It was going away for 10 feet when a can slowly is falling out of the pack, Krypto hears it and he turned it as the can fell and successfully catched.
But it made a little tap noise as the T-600 stops and turns. It scanned the area for anything. Krypto held behind the car and slowly breathing for dear life. The T-600 detected nothing and continues it's patrol.
The Terminator is away from the area as Krypto sighs of relief, "Too close" spoke softly in case it's still around. Then Krypto sneaks softly away. Krypto got to the building tht led to the sewers.
Krypto went down to the tunnel line and carefully walked through the short tunnel to a bigger room. On the end is wooden makeshift barricade. This was Krypto's handy work even he's not a superhero anymore, He's still a hard working dog.
"Hey. I'm back" said Krypto as he goes under the barricade. In the big room is Kevin. He got stuck in the game just like him, "Hey Krypto. You got something?". "We're lucky. I found a whole lot of these stuff" said Krypto as he unloads the first batch of dried food.
Kevin: "Way to go, Boy. This could be our lucky break". "I'll be back. There's more of them at the café near by" said Krypto as he heads towards the doorway. Kevin asked, "Did you run into any trouble over there?". Before Krypto goes under he answered his question, "Only those robot things. I saw a new one on my way back. It looked like a human. Only Bigger" he said as he goes under and returned back to the Surface.
Krypto went back to the café to grab more. Krypto picked a up the last ones, "This might last us for 4 months at best. If knowing Kevin doesn't eats fast". Krypto finishes the pickup and heads back through the kitchen.
When he opened the doors. A Man Dinosaur was standing there, Krypto closed the doors fast and turns behind in fear, "I got company" said Krypto with eyes widen. Krypto peeked by the door to see the yellow humanoid dinosaur.
It soon is coming this way. Krypto panicked and hides the pack in the shelves and hid under the the metal table. The Dinosaur opened the doors and goes inside the kitchen. You might think this a reference to the Kitchen scene from Jurassic Park with the Velociraptors.
Krypto stayed quiet so he can't be caught. The dog only saw the legs of the dinosaur. It has green pants and black boots with yellow padding on bottom. While it's walking pass the table where Krypto is hiding is the yellow tail.
Then Krypto heard the doors closed. He believe that the Dinosaur is gone. Krypto makes sure by peeking out. He looked left, right, up, down and everywhere. Nothing. "Phew" said Krypto as he got out of the table and walks with a calm.
Then Krypto got grabbed by the neck and was slammed by the walls, "DAH!". SLAM! Krypto was hold by the neck by the Dinosaur. It was Extreme Dinosaurs: T-Bone. Krypto growls at him.
T-Bone then recognized this dog, "Hey. I know you". T-Bone lowers Krypto down and steps back, "Your that Dog with the kid when this whole thing got started". "(Coughing). Yeah. I remember all too well. Your that dinosaur from before. I had to get Kevin away from you before you eat him" said Krypto as he glares to T-Bone.
"Eat Him?" said T-Bone as he looks back to the bigger area where Skynet and Akihiko Kayaba announce the launch of the game. He did saw this dog running fast while giving him a mad face.
"Oh. That. I never was one to eat anyone. Humans taste terrible". "What?" said Krypto as he got up and looked to T-Bone, "So your not gonna eat me?". "Eh! Animals with fur is even worse. No! I like the foods in Arizona with Spike Salsa" said T-Bone as he slurps his tongue.
Krypto gave him a raising brow. "Let's introduce ourselves again. The names T-Bone. 1st Sargent in Tech-Com North Division. What's yours". Krypto does his super intro, "Krypto from Krypton! That's a Planet".
T-Bone thinks, "Krypton? As in Superman?". Krypto: "That's right. I have the same powers like him. Except when I came here, My powers were striped away. Now I just find food for me and my boy, Kevin".
T-Bone understands, "Hmm? That makes sense". "What a minute? Tech-Com?, North Division? Your from the Resistance are you?. What are you doing away from the front lines?".
T-Bone: "I got a mission from Bulkhead about T-600s in border 5 here in Bakersfield too close to our Airbase about 50 miles due south. I was to find and destroy them". Krypto was confused, "T-600?".
T-Bone explained, "An early version of a humanoid machine". Krypto remembers, "Oh yeah. That human robot that I encountered". T-Bone was stunned, "What? You saw one?".
"Of Course. On my way back home. I went out and heard stomping and hid in that green car" Krypto left the kitchen and pointed to the green car outside. T-Bone went out and looked to the footprints the T-600 left behind.
T-Bone picked up the dirt and rubbed them with a finger and thumb, "This is still fresh. That Terminator is still in the area. Me alone with a rifle won't cut it. That's why I need to find it and track it until reinforcements arrives".
"Terminator? Is that what is called?" Krypto asked. T-Bone explains, "A Human Machine is called Terminators. Their suppose to be the infiltrator for Skynet. An AI that commands machines of black or grey to hunt humans and animals". "Another reason I stay way from them. I saw one of those things shot a guy" said Krypto.
"And one of them was a frisbee like robot" Krypto continued. T-Bone asked, "You mean Aerostats. Haven't you got a guidebook for them?". "Guidebook? I thought you can get them by buying them".
"Every player like you or your boy has a guidebook in your item storage ID: 'G-Book'. Look" said T-Bone as he scrolls up them item storage with his left hand. Krypto was amazed of what T-Bone just did.
T-Bone found it, "Here we go". T-Bone picked it and a virtual page came out and shows it to Krypto, "This one of the pages of this Guidebook. You have one too. And I got a feeling that you haven't even scrolled up the menu ever?".
Krypto shook no and then using the left paw. He scrolled the menu now for the first time, "Whoa?". Krypto was amazed by the gadgets and the mechanics for the menu and found the area map.
T-Bone talks to Krypto about maps, "With that and the change of settings. You can find blue friendlies, red enemies, Terminators, HKs and even food areas to search in". Krypto was ticked, "You mean I could had this to find food this whole time?!".
T-Bone laughed and Krypto glared with one eye at him, T-Bone: "I guessed you human boy hadn't done this also, Did he?", "No. I got to tell him on my way back. Be right back" said Krypto as he ran back inside the café.
T-Bone sees Krypto again with a backpack. Then the white dog went through the bag with T-Bone looking at it, "How many did you find?". Krypto: "This is the half of it. The rest f this is back in my hideout. I want to give a few of these for you".
"Don't" T-Bone replied no. "You need it as much as I do. Besides there's food already stacked up back at base". Krypto smiled, "Come with me. You must have a long trip from home. There is a safe place in the Hideout. It's the least I can do for giving me some tips, this might solve a lot of my problems".
T-Bone knelt to one knee and pat on Krypto's head, "Sure. I could need a rest". Krypto nods, "Follow me back to the Hideout". T-Bone stands up and follow Krypto back home.
Back at the Hideout. 2:32 pm.
Kevin was good on one of the dry food. Then he heard someone going down the ladder and the first is Krypto. "Your back. What too you so long?". Krypto goes under the barricade, "Sorry Kevin. I got a little sidetrack" He said as he turned to the newcomer.
T-Bone got passed the barricade without damaging it. Kevin: "Krypto. Who's that?". Krypto explains, "This is the dinosaur from before 2 years ago. His name is T-Bone". T-Bone waved, "Nice to see you too, Kid. (Yawn)".
T-Bone was getting tired as soon it was going to be night time. Kevin and Krypto chuckled, Krypto: "He's from the Resistance. And I think were going to let him sleep on the couch". Kevin agrees, "Sure".
At night in 11:00 pm.
The Boys went to sleep on the beds on the floor. T-Bone sleeps comfortably on the green couch with one leg on the side and the other leg outwards on the couch. His hands were placed on his chest and his head forward up on the other side of the couch.
Krypto told Kevin what he learned from T-Bone about the menu, maps, items they have that they didn't know and the skill level of 32 or 35. Including studying all of the Terminators and HKs. Kevin's Hacking Skills is high then Lv: 56
"You know. T-Bone is not a very bad guy then we thought" said Krypto. Kevin: "Yeah. I think Tech-Com would be the perfect place". "They say that need a lot of people that needs hacking types. I know you can do that".
"Yeah. Maybe if we got rid of that T-600. We'll might make the cut and join Tech-Com" said Kevin thinking of it, "That's a promise" said Krypto as he fist bump with Kevin and went back to sleep. Not knowing that T-Bone was listening to the whole thing.
Then when Krypto and Kevin fell asleep, T-Bone got up slowly and went up he columns and out to the back door that Krypto and Kevin would use to escape if Skynet finds them. T-Bone was on the surface as T-Bone talks to Bulkhead at the brick rail.
"A Hacker?" said TF: Prime Bulkhead at the radio. T-Bone: "I saw his hacking skill level of 56. But he's a 9 year old". Bulkhead(Radio): "That high? He must've been a special kid. If his skill level is that high. Let me check".
T-Bone waited for 1 minute, Bulkhead came back on the radio, "His Real Life info is: Kevin Whitney. He lives outside in the neighborhood of Metropolis. Whoa. He's a very good hacker in video games. However this peeked my interest when I looked at his profile, He is a very good hacker for his age. With that we can hack into Skynet's Central Sever with ease. We need him in Tech-Com. Your Mission of trashing that T-600 is now secondary. Your new objective is to protect Kevin and get him back here. Got it, T?".
T-Bone understands, "Sure. I'll protect him. But can tell him?". Bulkhead(Radio): "You have to. The more he knows, the better the chances of him understanding the mission we are in. You and Krypto must protect Kevin from anyone or any Terminators. Especially those Player Killers like Laughing Coffin". "You got it Bulkhead. T-Bone out" said T-Bone as he goes back inside to sleep.
September 10, 2017. The next day at the hideout. 6:00 am.
"WHAT!" Kevin yelled. T-Bone: "That's right. Your hacking skill level is high enough that interested Bulkhead. So your one of us now". Kevin look to Krypto, "You hear that. We're in".
Krypto smiled, "We sure do. So what now?". T-Bone: "My Job is to protect him until we got back to the Airbase". Krypto adds, "Well Kevin is my boy. So he's my job too". "That's a good thing, Private. They're sending a chopper down here. You just keep an eye on Kevin. I'll take care of the T-600".
Kevin agrees, "Sure". T-Bone nods, "I'll be back" he said as T-Bone left the Hideout.
...
At the surface of the City Ruins.
T-Bone tracks down the T-600 near the subway entrance. He found it, but the T-600 is trashed hard. T-Bone scratches his head on way. Then he got slashed in the back, "AH!".
T-Bone fell down to the ground to his knees and turns to his to sees a player with a sword. But it was not just a player, "Death Gun". It was Death Gun or Red-Eye XeXe. He glares at him. Red-Eye is in his GGO Death Gun avatar and his weapon is the Silent Assassin.
"You should head stayed in your hole, T-Bone" said Death Gun as he switched his Sniper to his Infamous Handgun. "T-Bone!". Death Gun turns to the white dog as Krypto followed T-Bone. T-Bone's eyes widen, "No". Death Gun aims at Krypto, "You lose".
"HEY!". Death Gun turns behind him and saw a kid which is Vince from the Recess Gang. "Welcome to the Loser's Club Fool!" said Vince as he swings out of nowhere a baseball bat at Death Gun's head.
Death Gun fell down as another kid comes out of the buildings. This is TJ coming out with a war cry, "Get him!". Then more then 8 other kids running down with baseball bats, metal pipes and wooden planks.
one of them walking with TJ is Jake Long or as the American Dragon. Jake pounds his fists, "Death Gun is all mine". TJ allows it, "He's all yours". Jake is glad as he pulls up a metal baseball bat.
They all ganged up on Death Gun as they beat him to a pulp. T-Bone and Krypto are there to witness this. The the military kid: Gus placed a chip piece on his back. The kids got back with Gus using a trigger to emit a radio signal to Skynet machines nearby.
Gus called out, "RUN!". Then the Saviors took off and taking off with T-Bone and Krypto following him.
...
The kids led them to the subway. 7:20 am.
From there. TJ and rest of the Gang. Took T-Bone and Krypto underground in the Subway lines. The Subway's stairways has lights made by old fashion art of electric power. TJ has a chat with them, "What's a Resistance Fighter like you doing in these parts?".
T-Bone replies, "Well since you and your pals saved our butts, I'll tell ya. I was assigned to destroy a T-600 that is wandering the area. But that guy you just handed to Skynet took care of it for me before he died. My Primary Objective is to ensure safety to a talented 9 year old boy that has a hacking skill of 56".
Vince: "Whoa that high. This guy must be some kid if the Resistance is ordering you to protect him". "That Vince and I'm TJ" said TJ as he shakes T-Bone's hand. "Names T-Bone and this is Krypto. I thought Krypto here and the boy Kevin are the only ones here".
TJ: "Since this game began. We have been hiding and trashing Machines out of plain site for this one year". TJ and Vince turned to Gus who passing through, TJ: "And we had Gus there to thank for teaching us and others to thrive".
Krypto asked, "What others?". TJ and Vince follows Gus into the subway station and then exits to Third Street. The Whole Area is like Third Street Town theme from the Disney's Recess.
That's because someone made a copy of the real Third Street Town for Terminator Online Maps here in Sector 5 of Border 17. The Copy of the Town is exactly like the real one only a few apocalyptical things like trashed cars and a few buildings were destroyed.
The only Building still stands in good condition is the school, "Welcome to Third Street School" said Gus as he welcome them the Former Third Street Elementary School that turned to a home camp for the entire third street school kids that got trapped here in TO too.
Their Leader here is King Bob who is still leading them here in his throne. For Kids who some are scavengers, they are well supplied with a lot of stuff and food. Some are being Soldiers with handguns and smgs.
Not Everyone is of Six-Third. Some like the American Dragon: Jake Long, Trixie, Spud and Fu Dog. Lilo and Stitch. Penny Proud. Phineas and Ferb, Isabella, Baljeet, Buford, The Fireside Girls, Parry the Platypus or Agent P. This is after The 2nd Dimension movie and Candace who does look like the 2nd-D self, metal staff and a Glock-19 handgun.
Zack and Cody Martin.
T-Bone looked to those guns the guards they used, "You guys looked armed to the teeth. But these are not enough for those T-600s". Vince: "We know that. That's why we only scrap smaller robots that is effective with these weapons. Good thing they're not real here in TO".
"Detweiler". TJ looked to King Bob whos is ordering him to him with T-Bone and Krypto. "Oh Boy. Come on, I think he wants to talk to you" said TJ as T-Bone shrugs and follows TJ with Krypto.
They got in front of King Bob. "Detweiler. Who are the newcomers?" King Bob asked. Krypto: "I'm Krypto and this is T-Bone", T-Bone: "1st Sargent. Tech-Com". King Bob's Eyes widen, "Your from the Resistance. What is a Resistance Fighter like you doing away from the Frontlines?".
T-Bone explains in detail, "I was sent here to find and destroy a T-600 that was patrolling the area here in Sector 5, Border 17. However Johnny Black of the Laughing Coffin took care of it and tried to kill me and Krypto. But we aren't when TJ and Vince and other kids came to the scene".
King Bob looked to TJ and Vince, "You two have down fine work. Did you placed the tracking chip on Johnny Black?". TJ nodded, "Gus did and those Tin-Cans took him away", Vince: "We won't be seeing him but the those work camps".
"You have done good for my kingdom well Recess Gang" said King Bob. "Kingdom?" T-Bone asked, TJ: "Just go with it". Krypto asks, "You guys are good on all of this. But the weapons are a little short your highness".
"We're rebels. We fight behind our own lines if Skynet sends junkheaps to my kingdom. However We cannot obtain the heavy weapons because they're hard to come by here. Only thing we have are the grenades".
T-Bone: "Not a Problem. My job is to protect a kid name Kevin, Krypto's owner. He's a high level hacker. When he, Krypto and I make it back to base. I'll put a good word for my General to send in heavy weaponry for you".
King Bob likes this, "Very well then T-bone. Then make-". "King Bob?" said Spinelli who is with Gretchen and Kevin walking with them, "We found this kid being attack by T-500Rs. They found him in the open with other players and escape. These Reavers seem to like this kid then those other guys".
"Kevin? What were you doing outside the hideout?" said Krypto. "Lookin for you. You and T-Bone didn't came back and I got worried. Then these robots went after me and met with these guys".
Gretchen talks to King Bob, "There has been increase activity of T-500R and 5 more of those T-600s in our area". T-Bone react, "What? 5 T-600s? How?". Spinelli adds more details, "There's more then 5 over 24 of those walking Tin Cans are followed with a lot of Wasps and Spiders coming this way".
T-Bone was thinking, "But that's not possible. There is no way for those machines to be here in numbers. But then again. That may be possible because the Resistance are spreading too thin across the frontlines. Skynet must have found a way to get pass us through our weakest line".
Krypto got worried, "But then. Those robots would come in force by 100 or 200 somehow". T-Bone corrected that, "1500 troops in a Regiment total". T-Bone looked to King Bob, "Do you have a radio or any communications?".
"I do" said Gretchen, "I tapped in on all Resistance frequencies to hear all outcomes of the battles and strategies of the plans. I can home you in to your base with your radio code".
T-Bone was amazed, "Okay then. Lead the way". Gretchen leads T-Bone, Krypto, Kevin, TJ, Vince and Spinelli to her science classroom where Gretchen has this place sa her own lab.
She also has a radio. Gretchen sets up the radio and turns to T-Bone, "What's the radio code?", T-Bone: "623421222". Gretchen taps it in and hears Bulkhead's voice coming out.
Bulkhead(Radio): "You keep a hold on that command post until reinforcements arrive Heatwave". Heatwave(Radio): "You got it boss. We'll give Skynet a headache he'll never forget".
T-Bone press the mic to talk, "Bulkhead. This is T-Bone. If your listening this radio call pick up this signal, over".
Bakersfield Resistance Airbase. 7:45 am.
Bulkhead is at the Command Center while he was talking to Heatwave. Heatwave(Radio): "These Machines are tenacious. They're not going to give up this command post to any of us".
Bulkhead replies back, "You keep a hold on that command post until reinforcements arrive Heatwave". Heatwave(Radio): "You got it boss. We'll give Skynet a headache he'll never forget".
Then he heard T-Bone's voice on the radio, "Bulkhead. This is T-Bone. If your listening this radio call pick up this signal, over". Bulkhead was surprised, "T-Bone?". Bulkhead turns to Linda, "Home in on that signal now". Linda nods as she radios in.
Back at the Third Street School's Science classroom.
T-Bone waits for only 70 seconds until he got the call from Bulkhead himself, "T-Bone pick up. I got your message". T-Bone, Krypto, Kevin, TJ, Vince, Gretchen and Spinelli were psyched that T-Bone had got through.
T-Bone replied back, "Good to hear your voice, General". Bulkhead(Radio): "I wasn't expecting you on a different radio signal. What happen?". T-Bone: "Johnny Black destroyed my comms unit".
Bulkhead(Radio): "Scrap. I was hoping you had not make contact with him during your mission". "I had help. There's someone who like to speak with you,... TJ" said T-Bone as he passed the mic to TJ.
TJ was stunned as he looked to T-Bone. The Dinosaur nod to go ahead. TJ then took the mic and talks to Bulkhead, "Umm? This is TJ Detweiler of the Third Street School refugee camp here in Sector 5, Border 17 over?".
Airbase Command Center.
Bulkhead looked out with a confused look, "A refugee camp? In that area?". Some Resistance personal was confused too with Obi-Wan Kenobi on the other side of the command table. Bulkhead was refocus as he talks to TJ, "I read you. Did you just say a refugee camp?".
TJ(Radio): "That's right. This place is not empty as you may think. T-Bone, that dog Krypto and your asset name Kevin is safe here in this School. But we may have a problem". Bulkhead looked up to Obi-Wan as he too looked to Bulkhead.
Third Street School.
"Gretchen" said TJ as he passes it to Gretchen. "This is Gretchen Grundler. You may not know this but there has been an Increased activity of Skynet Forces converging on our area in Sector 5".
Airbase Command Center.
Bulkhead and Obi-Wan looked to each other in shock. Gretchen(Radio): "Coming from the northwest at grid 5-8 and 5-3". Bulkhead snapped his fingers at the guy with the map charts and place the Terminators at those lactations.
Gretchen: "From what 1st Sargent T-Bone has said. I calculate that there are over 60,000 of Machines and Terminators coming from the Frontlines at grid 8-0 on Sector 7 Border 23". Bulkhead: "That's where the Liberation Army Division is at. They should had called in by now".
Obi-Wan turns to Cody, "Cody. Go look for their Commander. Find out we aren't we receiving them". "Understand General" said Cody as salutes and runs off. Bulkhead: "I don't like it when I been left blind by someone like the Liberation Army. We have to push them out of Border 17 or they are going to recapture the borders in the middle and cut off our boys on the frontlines".
Bulkhead talks back to TJ, "TJ, T-Bone".
Third Street School.
Bulkhead(Radio): "Our commanding officers is going to check on the Liberation Army. We haven't got a response from them for hours, Stay put and protect Kevin. I coming to you now".
TJ and the rest of the Gang has heard of the Legendary Bulkhead. The Leader of the Resistance. Meeting him for the first to is like meeting a Hero. "He's coming. Here?" said Vince.
Spinelli: "Bulkhead is the famous Leader of the Resistance. He has led men on the frontlines on Border 1 and 2 even when his odds are against him. But he has pulled some awesome plans and winning battles. Meeting with him is like an Honor!".
Krypto looked to T-Bone, "Is that true?". T-Bone: "Bulk has done amazing things. But he doesn't done things alone, He had friends to help him".
...
Outside the schoolyard.
The Kids young and old were playing like always. That is until one of lookouts Randell sees vehicles coming, "King Bob! We got Compony!". King Bob stands up fast, "Skynet?!". Randell turns with joy, "No. It's the Resistance!".
The Whole School heard Randell as they stopped playing as the entire school raced to the front gates. King Bob called out while running, "Open the Gates!". Near the gates are Mike Blumberg and Stitch or Experiment 626 opened gates as 3 dark grey M1117 Armored Security Vehicles rolling through with Bradly saluting like a soldier.
Behind those APCs are two M1 Abrams Tanks rolling in. Mike was amazed by this, "Wow". Following the tanks are armored trucks and 3 army troop transports filled with 30 Resistance Fighters and Clone Troopers each. So that's about 90 men or women together.
T-Bone was amazed of all of this. Then winds picked up as a Huey Helicopter flies low to a landing in the big parking lot that can fit 2 Huey choppers without hitting the poles or the walls.
On one of them is Bulkhead hopping out to the ground. He wears black armored vest walking to T-Bone. T-Bone walks to his old friend and greets him a welcome, "Welcome to Third Street School, Bulk".
Bulkhead nods, "Good to see you again, T. From what I can see from here, this school is underequipped with pistols and small arms fire. Not enough for what's coming. The Scans have shown that the girl was right. Right where Skynet's Invading Company of 60,000 Terminators is coming this way".
T-Bone: "So what are we gonna do?" . Bulkhead grins, "We're going to turn this base into a safe haven for Survivors. And an Outpost". T-Bone and Krypto looked to each other. Bulkhead then saw Kevin next to them.
Bulkhead knelt down, "You Kevin. T-Bone told me that you had a Higher Hack skill level. Is that true". Kevin replied, "I sure do! I had a lot of hackings from Batman". Bulkhead chuckled, "Then welcome to the Resistance then Kid".
Kevin and Bulkhead shook hands. Bulkhead: "Let's get to work".
...
12:56 pm.
Hours later as the abandon outdoor cinema is made into a airfield for helicopters. The parking lot is used for combat vehicles. The Resistance even arms the third street guards with the latest clone tech of DC-15 A and S blasters. Even TJ's sister Becky is helping out.
Bulkhead helps haul the crate of medical supplies as he then hears a kid talking something military. Bulkhead turns his head to look at Gus as he's making a plan. "We'll have the reprogrammed Aerostats on watch at night. But for defending the school, here's the plan. Vince. You and the Ashleys take Unit A. I'll take Unit B".
Bulkhead was amazed of Gus's behavior. Gus: "Spinelli. You get the Special Forces". Spinelli: "Special Forces?", Gus: "The Kindergarteners". Spinelli crossed arms, "I owe you for this, Griswold".
Bulkhead was stoked, "Huh?". Gus continues, "We'll hold the lines in the front of the gates. If Skynet gets past line one Spinelli and the Kindergartners will pushed them back hard at line two. If it happen and they broke through line two, we'll fall back inside the school and hold out until reinforcements arrived The next wave of Resistance Fighters would come at least 5 hours. We need to hold out till then".
The group understands and were dismissed. Bulkhead looked to Gus as he walks away. The Bulkhead continues on off loading the crates. By the Crates is T-Bone, "I can see why these kids lasted this long. He's a natural at this".
TJ: "Gus's Dad is a Colonel in the military. He gets his training from him". Bulkhead crossed his arms, "Is that a fact? Let's go check on Kevin" he said as Bulkhead, T-Bone and TJ went inside the school and to the computer classroom.
...
That late sunset in school. 7:37 pm.
In the Teachers Computer is Kevin going inside Skynet's Files on new deployments. Gretchen is finding ways on how to destroy the Invincible Harvesters. Kevin and Gretchen are being guarded by Krypto who is sleeping. Then he heard noises coming this way as he wakes up to see Bulkhead, T-Bone and TJ walking in.
Krypto: "Hey". "How's Kevin's progress?" Bulkhead asks. Krypto: "He's already in about an hour ago. He's going through everything while downloading them". T-Bone: "How long?". " Tomorrow in 12 Hours. I've also located other hidden bases that's worth taking. Skynet doesn't even know it because they're underground" said Kevin pointing up without taking off the screen.
Bulkhead: "With those. The Resistance can fight and hide without pulling back". T-Bone seconds that, "Yeah. But if Skynet gets those here. We'll have a harder time getting them out of the Sectors or Borders".
"That is where the problem is" said Kevin. Bulkhead and T-Bone looked to Kevin as TJ was now next to him looking at the screen. Kevin: "The 60,000 Terminators have been split in half. 30,000 of them is going to Border 5. The Rest of the 30,000 is coming here in about 3 hours".
"Then we better be ready" said TJ as he ran out of the room. Bulkhead then sees the drawing of the Harvesters, "What are you doing?". Gretchen: "I'm trying to find weakness to these Harvesters. You were lucky that one was not at that Base you destroyed at Border 2 when it did. Or you and the rest of your forces would have been toast".
"We were lucky back then. But yeah. Sooner or later we have to face a Harvester and trash them somehow" said Bulkhead. Gretchen continues, "I somewhat notice that there is more then one or three Harvesters seen on the battlefield. But only are seen in Skynet Central at times. Some are seen in prison transports".
"What's your point?" said Bulkhead. "I'm starting to think that making these Harvesters took up too much resources to make new Terminators and can only build one at a time every year. That's why there are only a few of them".
"So much for the Invincible Harvesters" said Bulkhead, "But why transports and Skynet Central?". Gretchen replies, "I believe it's only taking people and delivering to Skynet Central to be studied while those Big Brutes are protecting the place by hiding something".
Bulkhead is now questioning, "Hiding? Hiding what?". Gretchen: "Do you remember any T-600s using rubber skin for the first time?". Bulkhead nods, "Skynet was trying to make T-600s to blend in as,... Humans".
Gretchen snaps those fingers, "You got it! They're trying to make T-800s!". Kevin stops the hacking and looks to her with T-Bone and Krypto looking at Gretchen with shock.
Bulkhead was shocked to the metal bones, "John told me that next year in 2018. Skynet would be developing T-800s that can use real human skin that can really blend into the crowd and destroy anyone from within".
Krypto, T-Bone and Kevin were in shock like Bulkhead. Gretchen: "Right now. They are still in development in Skynet Central as blueprint designs. So next year. They will make the models and would be replacing the T-600s soon. But only one would be selected to become the perfect Human Infiltrator".
"From what I have learn from Carl who is a T-850. An Improved version of the Human T-800. These Terminator are completely bulletproof to standard gunfire" said Bulkhead explaining things.
Krypto then panics, "That's means we'll be screwed?!". "Highly doubt that. Skynet Central is factory itself. To fuel them is two nuclear power cells. But during 2018. They would still be in production. Except for one that would be used for a test run. So they won't be in production until 2022".
Kevin turns back to the computer, "But there is more Central Bases out there and three Harvesters. So only three of them are made". T-Bone: "Leaving the Central Core the only Factory of the whole online game".
Bulkhead looks to Gretchen, "Keep working on those weaknesses". Then Bulkhead turns to T-Bone, "Prepare for the attack in the next 2 hours. Don't let them get into this school or this room. Or it's game over for all of us".
...
Third Street School. 7:00 am.
The next day. All Hell broke loose. As T-600 Endos, T-7-T Spider Walkers, and Aerostats converge on the school's front gates while the resistance holds their ground with Rifles, Smgs, Pistols and Clone Blasters.
Behind the gates is Bulkhead near the landed Huey choppers talking to Kirito on the Radio. Kirito(Radio): "The Enemies we were expected were about 200 walking metals. Nothing we took care of. We'll be there in about 5 or 8 minutes. Cody is coming back with the Liberation Army. Figures, they're Captain went rogue and was pirating other people for money and stuff. Someone me and Asuna knew from SAO. His men remove him from duty when Cody arrived. They'll be there in 6 minutes".
"Thanks for the heads up, Kirito. Just get here as soon as you can. Tell Asuna and John to continue on the frontlines. Obi-Wan knows that we can handle this by ourselves with Ghost Company and Liberation Army Division. Bulkhead out". said Bulkhead as he goes off mic and returns to the battle.
Gus over sees the battle in the mobile flag base behind cover. Bulkhead then stands next to Gus, "How are we doing?". Gus: "We're good on the front and the right. But the left is getting pounded". I'll take care of it" said bulkhead as he walks to the left line with DC-15s in hand.
The left line was hold by Vince and TJ with Bradly and his boys taking cover by 5 concrete barriers. In front of them are a lot of Spiders and T-600s. "There's no way we'll hold out!" said Bradly. TJ: "We'll make it. We have to hold on".
One of the Spiders got close by 9 feet of the barriers. Blue bolts hits 3 spiders and 2 more fell down. TJ, Vince and Bradly turn behind to see Bulkhead walking in front of them and shooting while standing.
Bulkhead: "This line is not lost yet. Keep holding the line the best you can". The Boys were now filled with courage as they took out of cover and returns fire with blasters. On the right is Spinelli and T-Bone with 9 clones and 13 players. They had no problem with the incoming T-600 and Wasps and Spiders.
"This is too easy. Skynet could at least throw a bigger punch" said Spinelli with a M16a1/w Grenade Launcher. T-Bone with a DC-15a rolled his eyes, "Your enjoying this are you?".
In the front of the line is hold by King Bob and the Resistance Fighters by 40 men and women using exploding guns and rockets, King Bob: "BOMBARDMENT!". The front line unleashed hell on the massive Terminators at the front gate.
Gus looked over the entire battlefield by the roof as he then saw trouble, "Uh Oh". Gus spotted 2 HK Ariels coming this way, "General. You better be ready. Two HK Ariels are coming".
Bulkhead on the left line looks up to see the HKs hovering above them. Bulkhead's eyes widen, "Oh Scrap". The HK opens fire it's plasma guns as Bulkhead, TJ, Bradly and Vince took took cover behind the concreate barriers.
Gus then radios Mike, "Mike, Randell. Now!". Mike and Randell were holding RPGs and targeted the first HK. The two rockets hit the HK as it lands hard on a couple of Terminators.
Randell and Mike high-fives, Mike: "We did it!". Randell: "Uh Oh". Randell and Mike looked by the HK that is in front of them. The two runs down when the HK tries to gun them down.
The HK goes around to the court yard to cut them off until it got blown to pieces. Randell and Mike turned to see the Ashleys saving them. Ashley 1: "That's you own me, Boys". Randell just facepalmed.
T-Bone and Spinelli holds the lines better. Then more trouble came by the HK Tanks. They pushed back the first line as Spinelli goes to get the Kindergarteners. T-Bone looked to the field is overrun by Terminators and HKs, "You better be here Kirito".
Then 4 bombs fill the plains with explosions. "Huh?" T-Bone was stunned as he then saw two planes flying above as T-Bone had his eyes on them. Those planes are Dusty Crophopper and Skipper Riley. They were sent by John Connor for air support, Dusty: "You called General".
Bulkhead kept an eye on those planes as they passed by, "Where did you two come from?". Skipper: "John thought you might need air support. As He's right, You do". "Let's go!" said Dusty as he and Skipper turns around for the next bombing run of rockets on Skipper's wings.
Skipper made his 2nd run on the left side of the line as T-Bone looked to Skipper as he flies by, "Thanks for the aid. Your timing couldn't be better". Skipper(Radio): "Just doing my job, Sargent".
Another HK nearly hit Skipper but missed, "This ones all yours, Dusty". That HK was shot down by Dusty's laser cannon's made by unusable V-19 Torrent Laser Cannons as Dusty passed by.
Then Bulkhead sees more Huey choppers and republic gunships as they land at the outdoor cinema. One of whom was onboard was Kirito. Bulkhead greets them, "Nice to see you here", Kirito: "Sorry were late. It took us awhile to get here".
T-Bone walks to them as he nods, "Thanks for the help. We'll close this battle in no time". Krypto(Radio): "T-Bone! Bulkhead! Anyone hearing this! A T-600 is in the School! Hurry!". "No" said T-Bone as he raced inside the school.
...
In the Computer Classroom.
A T-600 had passed through the defenses and is in the room. Krypto was the only one standing in it's way. Krypto: "(Growling)!". The T-600 walks slowly to Kevin and Gretchen as Krypto bites it's right arm with the minigun.
The T-600 then grabbed and threw Krypto to the front, "DAAAAAAAAAAAH! OOF!". Krypto hit the chalkboard wall and slides down on his back. The T-600 aims the minigun at him. "RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" yelled T-Bone as he collided with the T-600 through the classroom and out the window to the outside.
The T-600 grabs T-Bone's backpack and threw T-Bone about 8 feet. T-Bone is on his back and butt as he looks to the machine with his head. As the T-600 gets up, TJ: "HEY!". The Machine turns right as TJ and Vince aims a RPG at it.
"Welcome to the Loser's Club Fool!" said Vince as he pulls the trigger with TJ holding the launcher as the rocket fires off and destroyed the T-600 by rocket implosion. TJ and Vince high-five each other as the machines are trashed.
The crowd cheered as King Bob climbs to the top and in front of his throne, "People of Third Street. I, King Bob declares this battle: Victory!". The third street kids and the resistance cheered this Victory loud. T-Bone then lays down to the ground backwards for rest.
...
Third Street School. September 11, 2017. 3:46 pm.
The Machines that were on the ground soon began to devirtualized into nothing. Some of the soldiers both resistance and third street kids were wounded. What's lucky is that no one got killed today. Which is a total victory for the good guys.
For Krypto. He survived the hit and can barely move to the Huey helicopter for medical attention at base in Bakersfield. Kevin looked to the Robot in White Baymax who came here by the other gunships after the battle, "Is he going to be okay?".
Baymax looks to Kevin, "He has sustained a few injuries, nothing threatening. He put himself in harm's way to protect you". Kevin looked to Krypto, "Yeah. That's my dog" said Kevin as he joins Krypto on the chopper.
Kids and Teens here will never forget this day when war came to their school. T-Bone looked at all of this, These kids done bravely today. T-Bone had a bandages wrapped on his chest from that T-600.
T-Bone then turn behind as Bulkhead walks to Gus. "Griswold" said Bulkhead as he knelt, "That was some fine planning you did". Gus was blushed, "Thanks. I had help from my dad".
"Your father would be proud. And I think you deserve this" said Bulkhead as he scrolls the menu. Then Gus got a message from Bulkhead, "Whoa!". It said: Your High Ranking Officer is requesting you to become a Commander of the new: Third Street Division. Do You Accept: O or X.
Gus was stunned, "Me?! A Commander?! That's higher then my dad's rank!". Bulkhead smiles, "You earned it. Your a natural born leader. Do you want the job?". Guys didn't hesitate as he press yes as he accept the responsibility.
"I will do my best General Bulkhead" said Gus. Bulkhead pat Gus's head, "See you around Gus or should I say,... Commander" he said as Bulkhead got up and left. Gus was joyfully stunned as TJ and the Gang congratulates him.
T-Bone grins and turns forward to the skies. Bulkhead is then standing next to him. T-Bone: "I haven't seen this sky blue for so long". Bulkhead: "We might see that sky again. If we fight together against a Skynet and go home".
T-Bone smiled. Bulkhead chuckled, "Come on T-Bone. Let's go home". Bulkhead and T-Bone soon walked to the choppers and gunships and leaving third street school with the boys and girls waving goodbye.
The End.
Thank You for reading. I'll soon. Longneck Prime out.
