Ruins of GPC

(Kowalski's POV)

Nigel, Agent 102, Agent 200, Eva, Private, Rico, and I were hiding behind some rubble. A lone Dalek moved past only to get blasted to bits by a Dalek-buster. Another Dalek appeared to investigate the destroyed Dalek only to get destroyed as well. I charged up The Dalek-slayer to it's full power on it's highest setting.

"Now!" I shouted getting the attention of all one thousand Daleks on site.

A thousand cries of Exterminate ring out. While everyone distract the Daleks with Dalek-buster blasts I find a good elevated position. I raised The Dalek-slayer and pointed it at the bulk of the Daleks forces near the Ship. I fired and the air filled with the death screams of 100 hundred Daleks. I aimed towards the Dalek ship as the Daleks started to close in on my location.

Several Daleks elevated and started to hover to form a protective shield around the Ship. I fired before the Daleks could move in blasting the Ship off the doors. The Ships shield went down for a brief moment allowing a Bomber to destroy the ship with bombs. The bomber flies away as the remaining Daleks swarmed me.

Another ship fired it's weapons knocking me off my elevated position. Rico, Private, and the others fired their Dalek-busters to provide cover fire and to keep the Daleks away. I saw Eva narrow dodge a death beam only to get knocked out by a crashing Dalek.

I rushed over towards the massive doors in the ground. Nigel see me and directs me to a small shed just outside the ruins. Daleks explode nearby but the Dalek managed to take out several barricades and exterminate several agents. Determined to end this I rushed over to the shed and entered it.

"Cozy," I said as I took as seat in front of the controls.

The Windows in front of me gave me a excellent view of the massive doors embedded in the foundations of the destroyed base. I saw Rico and Private take out twelve Daleks each as the battle seemed to intensify. Laser flew up from the surface as Lighting Blaster bolts cut through the air as Dalek ships descend and fired from high in the air in tandem with Dalek Patrol Ships closer to the ground. Agents and Penguin troops ducked and dove to avoid the blasts as they struggled to fight back. The boom of a jet engine flying overhead was followed by the explosion of that jet being destroyed.

A more advanced looking jet fired Anti-dalek missiles at the ship causing it to explode. That jet was blasted from behind and crashed but not without taking several hovering Daleks out with it. A helicopter spun wildly out control before spiraling into the ground and exploding. A Tank is on fire and a jeep explodes as Penguins dive for cover. A bomber with all but one of it's engines on fire as it barrel-rolled to the ground. The bomber's wings get ripped off as it slide across the ground and exploded. The Explosion took out several ground vehicles and fifty Daleks.

More Daleks ship descended from above as Jets and Helicopters flew up to meet them. North Wind's signature white jets joined the fight as the IPSA's Megacarrier and North Wind's Arctic Fury helicarrier added their aircraft and firepower to the mix. Stealth bombers, Stealth Fighters, and and Apache helicopter gunships fly in as well. Explosions rocked the air as ships and fighter craft on all sides were destroyed. Lasers crisscrossed the air as missiles flew around...it was getting harder to tell which side it was coming from.

"Let's see how they handle super weapons," I said as The Death Ship blasts a massive crater nearby.

The doors flipped open and slammed on the ground. The targeting computer flashed to life and I quickly locked onto the largest Target in orbit The Dalek Command Ship. A massive gun raises from the ground and points skywards. The weapon was the largest Railgun I ever seen.

"Yes!" Private said, "In your face Daleks!"

"Destroy the weapon!" The Red Supreme screamed as Daleks rushed in from all directions.

"This is Red Leader!" one of the jets pilots screamed, "Protect the weapon! Don't let them... ack!"

The Jet exploded it as other aircraft and ground troops start blasting away at the Daleks. The Daleks explode left and right as a lone Special Weapon's Dalek fired it's weapon at the shed. The shed exploded but as I flew back I hit the fire button. A Dalek managed to get a shot off at the gun but it was too late. The gun fired a single high powered rail-gun upwards as The Dalek Command Ship descended.

The round rips into the ship hitting it in it's warp engines. The Ship exploded as Aircraft and troops got out of there. I last thing I saw before passing out was the Death Beam making a useless move destroying the Railgun. The flaming Command Ship impacts on the unprepared Death Ship causing a massive explosion that took out the rest of the Dalek fleet. The shock-wave from the explosion spread out causing a piece of debris to hit Private and Rico.

The shock-wave blew me away and everything went dark...


I am in darkness...until I rip off my VR headset and unstrap myself. I stumbled off the treadmill and found Private and Rico struggling with their Headsets still on.

"RICO!" Private said, "Hang on!"

I ripped the headsets off them and they looked around in confusion.

"A simulation!" I said, "I knew it! It was a simulation!"

Skipper, Eva, Classified, Corporal, and Short Fuse gave me bored looked.

"Of course it's a simulation," Skipper said, "Keep up!"

"So none of that happened!?" Private screamed.

"So now what?" Eva said.

Suddenly Rockgut appeared, "Congratulations Kowalski! You were the last one to leave the simulation! Which means Congratulation Team Penguin! Because of Kowalski's survival of the Simulator! You win 200 points!"

"The North Wind by losing every last member in the simulator gets zero!" Rockgut said, "and because Robo-team was never in the competition in the first place that makes Team Penguin first."

"So at the end of the greatest simulation ever devised," Rockgut said, "The North Wind still has 73 points and the Penguins has 419 points!"

"Now let's go back to the North Wind Convention Center so you find out your final scores!" Rockgut said.

"The Approval Ratings again," Skipper said.

"Yes," Rockgut said.
