After much thinking and deliberation, I figured it is time to bring in another of my favorite Jedi Generals from the Star Wars videogames and go to a country that was part of the Federation in Call Of Duty Ghosts, yes I said Call Of Duty Ghosts, but unlike the game this Nation isn't an enemy, but an ally fighting for the same thing as everyone else on Earth: Freedom.
This idea was given to me Vincenzord, a native of the country we are about to see kick some seppie and PMC ass. Originally, I wasn't going to include it, but I'd figure I would do it after much thought.

Normal point of view
While the Australian and Japanese were preparing for the future plans to liberate the American ships that were captured in Pearl Harbor, the army Chile was waging a desperate battle for survival. In the opening days of the battle for Earth, the fleet belonging to the True Sons PMC organization sailed through the Panama Canal, under direct orders from both their commander and President Trump with the intention of taking out the biggest threat from South America.
Artillery barrages from the True Sons fleet which included several new Separatist aquatic naval vessels decimated the naval ports of Valparasio, Talcahuano, Iquique and the bases where a majority of their patrol boats and all of their attack class submarines.
Following the barrage, True Son F-22's and F-35s launched from several aircraft carriers along with dozens of Droid and TIE fighters launched an all-out attack along the coast of the nation, catching the army off guard and eliminating a majority of the chain of command. While the number of Chilean Fighters had increased thanks to Boris Vorshevsky, a member of the Russian Government who saw that the actions taken by the United States in the past few years since Trump became president were the signs that a great conflict was on the horizon.
This act gave Chile access to the MIG-29, MIG-25, MIG-31, SU-27, SU-30, SU-33, SU-35, SU-24 and SU-34 fighter aircraft which helped bolster their numbers in fighter aircraft. This proved to be a big help when the enemy launched their attack. All of the Russian aircraft given to the South American Country were heavily modified while the MIG-25's were equipped with the 20mm cannon used by the F-5 and F-16.
In the opening battle, the Chilean Airforce held of a swarm of enemy fighters and bombers while the civilians were evacuated by road and rail into the country side. When enemy cruisers showed up, it seemed that the air force was going to be wiped out, but the pilots pulled off the impossible and downed five cruisers before being forced to retreat from the city to the various air-bases around the country.
The army wasn't so lucky as the enemy had numerous snail like tanks that were equipped with powerful shields that rendered most of their heavy weapons useless. Still, the army fought bravely despite the casualties they took.
Even when their country officially surrendered, the army was still managing to fight with the same courage they were known for. One of those soldiers was Angelo Vicencio Ambelonti.
A twenty-five-year-old Chilean Marine Private of Italian ethnicity Angelo came from a long line of soldiers that fought for his home country Italy, before they were branded traitors by Benito Mussolini when they refused to follow the dictator's beliefs. Fearing for their lives, the Ambelonti's fled to Chile where they vowed never to use their family tradition ever again. That changed when Angelo joined the Bernardo O'Higgins military school where he trained for four years. This was his first year in the armed forces and when the invasion came and the President of the United States, one of their allies and suppliers declared war on all of Latin America.
Angered by this, Angelo continued to volunteer for risky search and destroy and acquisition missions which would allow him to extract some much-needed payback on the enemy who was attacking his country. Each of those missions, while successful began to make the Private reckless and got him to butt head with his superiors who chewed him out for causing a lot of his comrades killed, like when he failed to eliminate a series of SAM launchers before a squadron of friendly SU-34's that were making a bombing run on several enemy tanks.
Despite this, Angelo continued to fight, learning from his mistakes, becoming a better soldier and reducing the amount of losses in each of those battles. While he primarily used submachine guns, he was also a skilled marksman which was why most of the time he carried a SCAR-H battle rifle along with his FAMAE SAF .40 S&W submachine gun and Berretta PX4 .45ACP handgun. Other times he carried a customized SCAR-L which he modified with a fifty-round magazine, FN MK13 40mm grenade launcher and ACOG scope.
All in all, Angelo wanted to do everything for his country and he was waiting for his chance. He didn't know how soon that chance was coming.
As he was cleaning his handgun, an explosion shook the base before an alarm sounded through out the base followed by a voice on the intercom stating that the enemy had found their base and was launching an attack.
Loading up his weapons, Angelo rushed to the officer in charge who told him to take Alexander 'Alex' Hans, an officer in the Bundeswher who was in country for a vacation when the invasion occurred and establish a firing position on the right flank of the main entrance to the base. Armed with his USP 9mm handgun, a liberated HK G3 battle rifle, HK MG5 general-purpose machine gun and HK G36 assault rifle, the German soldier was ready for battle.
As the two took up position and began to set up the machine gun, a loud voice echoed from the forest. "By order of the President of the United States, Governor of Earth and Colonel Anton Ridgeway, everyone in this base is hereby under arrest for crimes against the separatist alliance. Surrender and die!" a metallic voice said emerging from the tree line.
The voice belonged to a tactical droid who was soon joined by dozens of other battle droids and True Sons soldiers. "Hey, metal head. Don't you mean 'Surrender, or die'"?! A True Son Engineer asked the tactical droid. "Forget it Sam. These hicks ain't going to surrender. Lets just kill them all." A True Sons Gunner said before they aimed their M60 and fired, cutting down a few resistance forces without any hesitation. The droids soon followed suit with their own weapons and marched forwards.
It wasn't going to be a walk in the park for the enemy forces. A series of trenches had been made, complete with several captured M224 Mortars which started to rain down 60mm high explosive shells down on the enemy.
Firing his machine gun in short controlled bursts, Alexander knocked out several enemy soldiers equipped with the Carl Gustaf Recoilless Rifle which were prepared to knock out several taxing F-5's preparing for takeoff. "They aren't getting back up." Alex said turning the machine gun towards another group of enemy soldiers as the F-5s took off and began to engage the enemy fighters.
Angelo opened up with a burst of fire from his ACE 22, taking out a few droids before he lobbed a grenade towards an unsuspecting True Son Engineer who was setting up a turret. The grenade exploded taking out the soldier before the turret was even set up. Other soldiers in the trenches were able to push back the enemy forces and for a while it seemed that they were going to win this battle. That all changed when enemy Ragnarok and Ymir Mechs crashed through the trees and began to open fire on the Chile armor.
A couple of well-placed shots from the 105mm and 120mm cannons from the Leopard tanks slammed into the mechs, but did little to damage the enemy assault mechs which proceed forwards unabated by the enemy firepower and quickly crushed several tanks that tried to get close and personal to the mechs.
With their armor being annihilated, the Chilean armed forces began to fall back to the trenches farthest from the mechs and enemy units. Most of the soldiers retreating were quickly mowed down by the assault mechs laser cannons. Su-34's attempted to take out the mechs but were shot down by the 'lava gun's' of the enemy armor.
Both soldiers watched in horror as several fighter bombers spiraled out of control before skidding across the ground and looked to see the flaming bodies of the pilot and weapons operator. "BASTARDOS!" Angelo shouted in Italian, firing his SCAR-H at one of the Ymir mechs. His shots did nothing but get the Ymir to turn its attention towards him and Alex.
The two of them froze in fear as the Ymir's PPC cannons charged up and were about to fire when at the last second, a series of missiles slammed into the Assault Mech causing the mechs shots to miss and hit one of the destroyed tanks.
"What the?" Alex said in confusion. He looked back to see several red and white gunships of unknown origin streak towards their location followed by a red and grey fighter bomber and several other aircraft of unknown make and model. Behind them were several other red and white gunships each carrying a red and grey tank of unknown make while several large triangle-shaped ships broke through the cloud and began to engage the ships that had just arrived.
The gunships landed and exiting them were dozens of soldiers in gray and yellow stripped combat armor wearing helmets with a yellow tinted visor armed with rifles, rocket launchers, mini-gun looking weapons and batons that crackled with electricity ran into the trenches and started to provide covering fire while the mysterious new fighters began to engage the True Sons planes.
One of these new fighters, a quad-winged fighter was hot on the tail of a True Son F22. While the F-22 was faster, the new fighter was catching up to the enemy plane. Within seconds, the fighter closed the gap between itself and the enemy Raptor and fired. The four wing-tipped cannons roared to life, sending a burst of red-hot lasers burned through the Raptors Airframe before it spun out of control and crashed into a True Son Abrams.
"Mien Got." Alex said in German, complete in awe at the amount of damage these new allies of theirs were doing to the True Son and droid forces. He was so mesmerized by the ongoing battle; he didn't realize that an enemy sniper had him lined up in their crosshairs and fired. A .308 Winchester round tore through his right arm going completely through the limb and causing an agonizing amount of pain to coarse through the German's body.
"Gott Fickt Verdammt es, das weh tut!" Alex cursed in German, holding his arm while he pulled out his side arm and fired back at an incoming group of battle droids that were marching towards their position. He took out one droid with his pistol before the rest of the them were pushed back by the wind. Looking back, he looked to see a man in light combat armor mixed with robes with a green bladed weapon leap over the two of them and began to hack the droids. Behind him firing off their weapons were four Spartan soldiers. One was armed with the M79 grenade launcher slung over their back and held a DSA SA58 with a M68 Aimpoint red dot scope attached to the top of the weapon.
Another Spartan had two Desert Eagles secured in their side holsters and held a customized HK91 rifle in their hands which held a fifty-round drum magazine and ACOG sight while the third one held the Blaser R93 Sniper Rifle.
The third one was clearly a female and was flanked by another female Spartan who was armed the SIG SG 552-2 assault rifle with a GL 5040 grenade launcher attached under the barrel and a C-More sight equipped to it while in her holsters were two SIG P320 handguns and on her back was a SIG MPX Submachine gun.
"FIRING!" The Spartan with the M79 shouted and fired his launcher, the round from the launcher hit the ground directly ahead of one of the larger battle droids which blew its torso off and taking several other battle droids with it before the second female Spartan fired their assault rifle in short controlled bursts taking out several True Sons infantry while sprinting after the saber wielding man who began to deflect blaster fire back at the enemy droids while one of the new tanks fired their missiles taking out one of the Ymir mechs which took out dozens of enemy units and a few tanks.
Both the Chile air-force and the new fighters quickly gained the advantage in the air and began to push back the enemy fighters back while a third enemy ship was blown to pieces by a foot shaped fighter which then made tight hard left turn before pulling a loop-de-loop and got behind a TS F35 lighting and blew the fighter to bits which then crashed into the burned out remains of an enemy tank.
Their momentum lost by the appearance of these new forces, the TS and droid forces quickly retreated as friendly Y-shaped bombers flew back towards one of the friendly ships. Deactivating his saber, Rahm Kota rushed towards Alex who was being tended to by one of the medics in his militia. "Bullet went clean through. You're lucky, if that was a blaster bolt or they had aimed for your head, you wouldn't be alive." The general said to the wounded German was quickly patched up as Angelo's commanding officer quickly joined them. "Gracias por su ayuda. Estamos agradecidos su oportuna llegada, Pero quien es usted?" the commander asked in Spanish.
Angelo quickly translated. "He says thank you for the assistance. He is grateful for your timely arrival, but he wants to know who you are? Personally, I want to know the same thing." Angelo explained.
"To put it simply Private, Commander. My name is Rahm Kota, A Jedi General in the Grand Army of the Republic. As to answer the question you have yet to ask, the four Spartans are Max Payne, Gunner Jensen, Faye Lee and Marie Rose. As to why we are here, the answer is simple. We are here to liberate your world from the man called Darth Sidious." Kota explained.

I thought those rumors we were hearing about worldly men with strange weapons and armor similar to what the True Sons, LMB, Black Tusk and Inner Circle had been just rumors. Turns out they were true and this guy was living proof.
Rahm Kota: A Jedi master and General of the Grand Army of the New Republic, formerly called the Grand Army of the Republic before the recent events. A military genius and tactician who recruited mercenaries, enemy POW's and even other planet militias into his forces, the man had won over several battles and refused to use clone soldiers who were the main force of the Grand Army. However, according to the likes of Max Payne, Gunner Jensen, Faye Lee and Maria Rose, the general was starting to view clone soldiers differently due to the actions of clones named Rex and Breach whom he once thought as being unable to think creative or as intelligent as other soldiers.
Aside from his views on the Clones being changed, he also held the respect of a skilled soldier called the Lone Wolf. From he said, the soldier was the son of a Jedi who was sent to earth in an attempt to kill her cause she knew something she wasn't supposed to know. She survived and married an American mercenary whom they had a son, the Lone Wolf.
A skilled soldier, pilot and warrior, the kid has been fighting from the deserts and oceans of other planets to the vast blackness of space with his friends and family, the Expendables. He even built several custom-made suits of the Spartan Power Armor, custom built weapons and his own Lightsabers, the weapons of the Jedi order. I even he was the one that killed John Seed in Hope County and decimated the Peggie's with a .50 caliber machine gun.
The kid even fell in love with a former Jedi who was the apprentice of the leader of a group called the 501st, one of the legions of the Clone Army. She was captured since she had something called the Nexus route in her possession which allowed Sidious, who was playing both sides of the war for his own gain to launch an attack on the Republic capital in order to get the 501st leader to join him. Sidious failed and fled to earth where he had somehow managed to get Black Tusk and the other PMC's along with a few terrorist groups to join him.
I remember seeing that massive shot of light from space hit Buenos Aries, killing everyone in the city with a single shot, much like what happened in the Middle East a couple of years ago, only this wasn't a nuclear weapon. To think that foreigner hating bastard Trump would even work with these psycho's just to gain power.
That guy was one Maldito Americano. Guys like him make me sick, but guys like Payne and the rest of the Expendables, those guys are different. They risked their lives on the front lines of a war many lightyears away from Earth and helped bring about a true democracy in another galaxy.
These guys were defiantly what we were going to need if we were going to liberate our world. Which is why I was trudging through the forest with several squads of Militia commandos, a few of my own country's commandos, Max Payne, Marie Kota and Gunner towards one of the enemy bases in the Elqui Valley. A region known for making some very good wine, the place was now being used by the enemy as a forward operation base and had built several airfields, prison camps and small bases. Trying to get past them was suicidal enough, especially since some guys in both the army and air force had already launched a futile attack several weeks ago only to have ninety-percent of the forces wiped out, the survivors were badly wounded, dozens of tanks and fighters damaged and in need of extensive repairs.
When we arrived at the valley a squadron of TS F-22's streaked away from one of the airfields. Judging from their flight path, it looked like they were heading out towards the sea, probably to circle around and attack the Mexican Resistance. Those guys were dealing with even more problems than the rest of us, given that the various drug cartels were for some reason backing the separatists and had assassinated the president of Mexico. Following that, the Mexican army suffered a series of terrorist style bombings at their military bases just hours before the invasion began, knocking out a lot of their fighting strength and allowing the various cartels to push them back down the southern end of their country. A lot of them were able to make to countries like Bolivia while only a handful of them were able to make to Chile. They will get their country back, I know it.
"Looks like your intel was good," Gunner began breaking my train of thought as he handed me his binoculars and pointed out towards one of the damaged winery's. "Droids and PMC's have a lot of forces in this place. That tunnel over there, that's the only to get forces to Santiago by road and rail. They've got it blocked pretty good." He added.
I saw what he was talking about. The enemy was using burnt out cars, trucks and tractors to block the valley exit. They even set up a few watch towers and howitzers close by to bombard any advancing vehicles trying to exit the valley. From what I could see, it looks like a lot of the enemy aircraft had left the area and only a few dozen attack helicopters protecting the valley along with several droid fighters.
"Damn it! There's no way to get through without massive casualties." I cursed.
"There are alternatives to fighting." Kota said before he pulled out a device which he threw into the air and hovered for a few minutes before he pulled out another device which then showed a holographic map of the entire valley.
"The enemy has set up a massive anti-armor defense and it seems they have several anti-aircraft guns set up all over the valley. No doubt they are also expecting an air assault." The General said before he pressed a button on his gauntlet and a few seconds later, a squad of captured enemy droid fighters flew into the valley where they were attacked by the enemies' anti-air defenses. "As I thought, their anti-aircraft guns are linked to an early warning system outside the valley, that's why they were quick to scramble a counter attack." He stated as the captured fighters were soon shot-down as they began to retreat.
"Kota to Black Leader. I need a bombing run on these coordinates. Be advised, enemy anti-aircraft fire is linked to a system of early warning systems. I'm sending the location of the enemy radar network. Synchronize your attacks and take out those radar dishes before they can detect you." Kota ordered.
"Copy that General. Black Squadron is ready for battle. Be advised, we're flying with several fighters from Chile Air Force. Looks like their commanders aren't going to be waiting for your recon, they've already sent a couple of helicopters with commando units' intent on taking the valley." I heard a voice say over the general's high-tech radio. Looked like some of the big-wigs weren't going to wait for the general's recon.
"Copy that, once you take off advise all aircraft accompanying you on this mission to go full speed so you can take out those defense systems before the helicopters alert the enemy to our plan." The General said just as Max arrived.
"The enemy doesn't have that many fighter jets left. They do have a lot of those TIE fighters down there, hundreds of them. Even with all the fighters Chile has from Russia, they won't stand a chance." Max stated, pulling to bolt on his M1A SOCOM 16 tactical rifle checking to see if there was any dirt or mud that would jam it.
"We have several minutes before the air forces take out the enemies early warning system and those fighters are launched. We need to take out as many of them as possible." Maire added, a bit of excitement in her voice as she reached into the duffle bag she had and handed each of us two pounds of plastic explosives. "This amount of C4 is enough to take out T-72. Same thing should apply for a TIE fighter on the ground. Just attach it to the wing, get clear and blow it up." She stated. Even through her helmet, I could see that she was smiling at this.
"Split up into squads and head to the airfields. We need to even the odds out as much as possible." Faye said in agreement. Kota then gave us our orders and sent each of us to an airbase. The General also stated that if we got the chance to search the bases for any intelligence regarding the enemy's defenses of the United States West Coast. An invasion was being planned and we needed all the intel we could gather.
By the time we reached one of the abandoned vineyards, we had split up into six squadrons, mine being with the girl, Marie and were already nearing one of the airfields. We were just about there when one of the commando's fell into a ditch. Only it wasn't a ditch, it was a mass grave. Dozens of corpses, belonging to men, women and children laid in the ditch, all of them riddled with bullets or headshots. This made the commando vomit with me following suit, to think that Cabron Trump actually ordered such a thing made me sick to my stomach. Marie, on the other hand didn't seemed fazed by this. She soon mentioned she had seen things like this before and this was one of the enemy's tactics, kill civilians, blame it on the Republic and use it as a warning to anyone who would defy the ruler of the galaxy.
Just another reason for me wanting to kick these bastards off the Earth. Once my ally was finished heaving chunks, we made our way to the airfield and waited for Marie to cut a hole through the fence surrounding the airfield. She made it look so easy using that laser cutter of hers, though she did mention that the laser cutter used by a friend of hers, U9-C4 was ten times more powerful and packed a more deadly punch. From what I gathered, U9 sounded to be one of those droids.
Hunkering down behind a fuel tank, we all attached our suppressors to our weapons and were given the C4 charges and snuck off to the fighters. I checked my watch, we had seven minutes before the squadrons arrived at the defense perimeter.
Marie and I snuck up on two TS scouts and snapped their necks before hiding their bodies behind a container before I shot out a pair of spotlights that were about to shine on our location. The guards manning the lights were also taken down by the two of us before we moved up towards the fighters and planted the charges on the fighters. We were about to make ourselves scarce when the alarm began to ring in our ears.
From the radio we took from one of the dead guards, it sounded like someone spotted the general and were engaging him in a fire-fight at the moment. Several TS Humvee's left the base and were making a beeline for Kota's location. The amount of manpower they were sending clearly meant they weren't pulling any punches.
Marie and I regrouped with the other commandos who had succeeded in planting their charges and all of us quickly ran after the enemy vehicles towards the general's location, hoping we weren't too late. By the time we arrived, a few of the generals men laid dead on the ground while the others were using several burnt out cars as cover while the general stood out in front of the cars blocking enemy weapons fire away from his men while several medics dragged the wounded men back behind the cars and patched them up as best they could.
Gunner then popped out of cover and fired his launcher knocking out one of the incoming enemy vehicles which exploded before the vehicle was in range, knocking out its tires and sending skidding on its side before he quickly reloaded his launcher and fired again, this time at one of the spider looking droids. The impact of the round on the droid's head was so powerful that it flew into the air for a few seconds before it landed on top of one of the bulkier looking droids.
A round penetrated the body armor of one of the TS soldier covered in heavy armor which put the guy down. Looking back, I saw Faye on the roof of one of the nearby houses her R93 positioned and blazing to life. "Good thing we got a sniper." One of the Militia commandos chucked before he took a blast to the face.
Marie started to return fire with her own rifle after pulling back another wounded commando back to safety. The nineteen-year old girl fired off burst after burst of 5.56mm rifle rounds at the enemy before she switched to her rifles grenade launcher and fired one of her 40mm rounds. The round impacted the ground directly ahead of a small squad of droids which were reduced to scrap metal.
I returned fire with my own weapon taking out a few hostiles as the rest of the wounded men were brought back to safety. As I reloaded my SCAR-L, I looked to see Senor Payne firing his Desert Eagles in rapid session, sending down enemy after enemy with .44 magnum rounds.
By the time I had finished reloading and watching Max go to work, the enemy had called in a few tanks intent on taking us out. The enemy fighters had lifted off and were on an intercept course with the ally fighters. That was until Gunner detonated the charges. In a matter of seconds, the skies were lit up with series of explosions as the sun rose over the valley. Of the three hundred fighters that were launched two-thirds of them were wiped out as a 120mm high-explosive shell slammed into one of the enemy tanks, destroying it.
Looking back, we saw that reinforcements had arrived and a heavily modified passenger train coming into the valley and were quick to force the enemy to retreat as the fighters had arrived. With the Gringo's tails between their legs, we pushed forwards towards the other tunnel exit out of the valley, liberating the prisoners from the camps and destroying any opposition we encountered. By the time we pushed the enemy out of the valley, one of my country men handed something to General Kota. "Seems the enemy might have more forces on the North American continent then we thought." He said worriedly.
Normal point of view
June 22nd
It took less time than originally estimated by the Chilean top brass, but at long last the enemy was pushed out of Chile. With their retreat, the navy, army and air force of the South American country were able to restock their supplies of ammo, fuel and weapons. Not only that, but they were able to acquire the ships the True Sons had used in the initial invasion.
Despite this, Kota was more worried about the intelligence they acquired. From the information, it was determined that the separatists had established a large defense force along the west coast of the United States. All the beaches that were once visited by family's year after for summer, were now littered with pillboxes, razor wire, anti-ship and anti-armor artillery weapons.
The planned liberation of the United States was still a long way away, but it was decided to get as close the Country possible and send a taskforce of Militia and Chilean forces to apply some pressure on the enemy stronghold and get them to turn their attention towards South America.
Kota explained this plan to the Lone Wolf and was given the green light to send several battalions into Central America, link up with the resistance cells in those countries and hammer the enemy occupation forces as hard as they could while they continued to liberate South America.
What none of them knew was while the planning was going on, in the once proud city of Los Angeles a large man wearing an ice cream man suit was cleaning his set of carving knives before picking one up and walked over to a LAPD officer who was being held down by two Black Tusk Soldiers.
As the officers screamed echoed through the suburbs, a small group of True Son scouts had just finished executing several civilians in response for a recent Wolverines attack and were about to leave before they were quickly mowed down by barrage of gun-fire. As the last body fell to the ground, Velvet walked out of the alley throwing down her borrowed AK-47 and was about to leave before she noticed that one of the True Sons scouts was still alive.
A smile came to her face as she grabbed the scout and dragged him by the uniform down the alleyway. Hefting the soldier up into the air over the freeway, Velvet angrily demanded the location of Billy Kincaid. The soldier didn't answer and Velvet dropped him over the bridge before she left the area. "I will find you, Kincaid. And when I do, you will die." She said to herself and walked away.
Kota helped took back Chile and is now working to liberate the rest of South America and give the enemy a headache to aid in the upcoming invasion. Velvet still searches for her brother's killer and is fighting alone. How will this play out and will Velvet finally get her revenge? Find out as the story continues.
Please read and review and I will see you all next time with the Russian Front Chapter.
