Deep in the city, Shadow's chalk ran and ran down the streets to get to the crash site. With Shadow are Griff, Cyrus, Mina, Hawking, Trevor, Mighty, and Aleena. They run and run through the streets and stop every few seconds, and run again. Then they stopped again. Shadow pointed his thumb forward. Mighty, Trevor, and Cyrus ran forward. Soon, a bullet shot out of nowhere and hit Mighty's hand!
MIGHTY: Gah! *drops rifle*
SHADOW: Mighty, are you okay?
Mighty got up and began running to get his rifle. Shadow saw an echidna pop out of a door and began to aim his AK-47 at Mighty!
SHADOW: No, don't go back!
Shadow quickly shot the echidna five times and the echidna fell dead!
Soon, more echidnas appeared in the streets and the chalk shot at them! The chalk ran forward. Shadow peaked over a corner of a building and looked in an alley. He noticed a civilian echidna woman in the alley screaming at Shadow.
SHADOW: Get down! Get down!
Suddenly, bullets shot at Shadow but missed. Shadow noticed a bunch of echidnas shooting everywhere! It was a whole fire fight again! Shadow was trapped in the alley as the rest of his chalk was outside on the other end of the street.
Aleena and Trevor both notice a whole truck of echidnas coming.
TREVOR: Technicals!
ALEENA: Got them!
Trevor fired his M249 SAW's at them, and Aleena fired her M-16A2 at them! Many died from Aleena and Trevor's bullets.
Shadow, still trapped in the alley from the flying bullets, shot more.
Mighty, however, was unable to shoot. His entire left hand thumb was completely ripped right off. It is dangling from only a single centimeter of flesh!
MIGHTY: *whimpering*
Cyrus is trying to flip it back on so he can wrap a cloth bandage around it.
TREVOR: Six o'clock! Move! Move!
Trevor and Aleena got up and hid behind a ruined car. They shot from there. A whole truck of echidna machine gunners drove down the street, stopped, and began firing at the Rangers. Shadow, still trapped, continued to shoot.
Trevor and Aleena had the best angle for shooting the truck, so they started shooting at the truck. Aleena shot and shot until she saw the echidna machine gunner flail his arms out and jumped backward. Trevor's rapid-fire M249 shot the gas tank of the truck and it exploded! The explosion also killed more echidnas around it.
Since those echidnas were dead, Shadow was free!
MINA: Go, go, go!
Shadow ran out of the alley and back to his chalk!
MINA: Go, go!
All of a sudden, a crowd of over thousands upon thousands of echidnas suddenly appeared. They walked down the street toward the Rangers!
TREVOR: Come on!
Shadow decided now was the time to just go on and head to the crash site! Shadow ran next to a building and peaked over to see if it's clear, it is. Shadow, Griff, Cyrus, Hawking, Trevor, Mighty, and Aleena ran around the building and down the empty street, completely leaving Mina Mongoose behind!
ALEENA: Mina, leaving!
Mina ran.
ALEENA: Mina! Come on!
Shadow's chalk was out of sight as they ran down the street. Suddenly, Mina found herself trapped in the same alley that Shadow was trapped in! This time, she is all alone and up against thousands of echidnas closing in on her!
Mina ran and ran, but there was no where for Mina to go. Trapped. Trapped like a rat! Mina knew she was going to die, until she accidentally ran into an unlock door and fell inside the building.
EXT
Outside, a Dark Legion kid and his father, another Dark Legion member, walked to the building Mina was in and started shooting it!
INT
The bullets missed Mina. Mina looked over and noticed a civilian woman with her children inside, staring at her oddly.
EXT
The father and child kept on shooting the building up.
INT
The bullets missed. Mina got up and locked the door.
EXT
The father was out of bullets.
INT
Mina held her index finger over her lips and made a shush sound quietly. After a while the woman echidna nodded her head. Mina smiled. She slowly walked through the house, past the echidnas. The echidnas continued to stare at her. Mina stopped, looked at the echidnas and slowly waved her hand. One of the kids waved back.
Mina opened a crack in a different door and looked out. She saw no one around, so she stepped out. Her boot instantly met sand and she slipped. Then the Dark Legion kid saw Mina and fired at her. Since Mina slipped, the bullets missed her and accidentally shot his father to death!
The kid got up and ran to his dying father. Mina got up and aimed her rifle at the kid and began to pull the trigger. She stopped just short to see the child cry over his soon-to-be-dead father. Mina just stared. She didn't have any time to be sympathetic, so she just simply ran leaving the child alive.
EXT. SOMEWHERE ELSE
Somewhere else in the city, the humvee column drove and drove down dirt streets escorted by two Little Birds. The humvees are taking heavy enemy fire from all directions, causing them to drive faster and faster. Metal-Sonic is driving the lead humvee with Knuckles in the front seat next to him. Rotor's voice sounded out of the humvees radio.
ROTOR: *from radio* Uniform 64, Left turn. Left turn.
Too late, the humvees passed the street they had to turn left on.
KNUCKLES: *yelling in radio* Romeo 64, I need to know before I get to the goddamn street!
Ranger Mildred Rabbit, on the M50 machine gun, is shot and killed. She falls in the humvee.
ROTOR: *from radio* You have to slow down. There's a delay. From the time directions are relayed from surveillance to JOC, then to me. Over.
Ranger Katela the Huntress gets up on the M50 and takes over the dead Mildred's position.
KNUCKLES: *yelling in radio* We can't slow down! We're taking heavy enemy fire! We can't slow down!
INT. HANGER – ARMY BASE
Back at the Army Base, the remaining furry Rangers and Deltas listen to the intercom radios of what's happening. Remington, with the cast on, is one of the furries listening to the whole battle. He stands wide-eyed in shock of what he's hearing.
ROTOR: *from radio* Bobby, I'm getting information from Orion surveillance above.
KNUCKLES: *yelling, from radio* So get me my fucking direction to the crash site!
ROTOR: *from radio* Bobby, hold on. I no longer have the best view of your route.
KNUCKLES: *yelling, from radio* Then get your ass in the right place, goddamn it!
Remington can't believe what is happening.
INT. JOC
MAX: What in the hell is the status of Espio's humvees?
ELIAS: *in radio* Colonel Rotor, ETA to base, Espio's column.
ROTOR: *from radio* ETA to base momentarily.
EXT. ARMY BASE
Espio and his three humvees are still driving to the base with the injured Fiona and the dead Emerson, still lying in Arrakis' lap. Arrakis is dripping tears from his eyes. They soon make it. Fling the Cat, the Ranger at the gate, saw them coming.
FLING: Open the gate.
The gate opened as the three humvees entered in. Once in, they stopped right outside the hanger where they are met by hundreds of running furries.
The soldiers carried the dead Emerson out of the humvee. Remington stood there wide-eyed in shock. He could not believe what he was seeing. A couple of furries are looking over Fiona on a stretcher.
SARA: Fiona. Fiona, can you hear me?
OJISAN: Get her to a medic.
Arrakis looks down at Fiona like he's about to burst in tears.
INT. HUMVEE
Sonic speaks inside the humvee and sees that it is scattered with used bullet sockets and blood. What a mess!
