Pittsburgh a city which is known for being a city of education, medicine, the heart of steel production during the second world war, just north of pittsburgh is butler the city that developed and build the willys-jeep on of the most well know all terrain vehicle a very short distance east is an entire region that was most of the united states coal supply for many years, pittsburgh itself is also a very closely knit city, the city itself is home to multiple military guard regiments, of course that's for future reference, so let us begin,

"Mykkol are you up?" my grandfather asks through my bedroom door,

"Yea pap i am!" i said muffled by my pillow, my muzzle partially buried in my pillow,

"I will take that as a yes" he said, i perked my ears as he walked away,

A minute later i hop up from my bed and make my way to my desk, on it is a chrome book, i type up a message on it knowing i might not be home by tonight, my brother should be here by tonight, but i'm going to kick the national guard out with about a hundred or so elementals and at minimum two thousand human militia men given my size i am probably going to wind up being a scout of some sort, i grab a small satchel i had opened my window and hopped out onto the dumpster below, i decided to begin my morning note run, four note drops without issue later i come across a new checkpoint being set up by the guard on forbes avenue by the museum of natural history, the museum itself having been left alone for the moment, but there are at least two supply trucks moving through, on marked with an explosive placard, i keep moving sneaking through a small hole in a chain link fence being used to make movement between blocks harder, my next area is a small militia safe house on artwood street, i go through a dog door

"Hey, I'm here!" i call out, "hey mykkol, hope your doing fine" a human says walking into the room wearing a plate carrier with a bullet hole in it and a dirty police uniform, i tap my front left paw twice,

"Okay give me a sec" he says opening a pouch on his vest, and pulling out a map as well as a marker, he gives me the marker, i mark the map with it and put a star symbol, noting it as a possible ammo dump, he puts a note in my satchel

"I need you to get that to the a jolteon who will be by mercy probably by at the river by the old homeless camp" he said,

I nodded and took the final note to the jolteon in question,

A week ago the camp in question was inhabited by about a hundred or so people, well what happened a week ago was a few elemetals were also present at the site and the military came into "Relocate" them, well one person a local cop in fact told the commanding officer to fuck off and low and behold he was shot dead on the spot, then turning into a short fire fight between two more officers one having survived but the other being dead, and the officer initaided a mass execution of all witness on the spot,

I eventually come across a boat with a human in it with a jolteon on guard,

"Hey, I have a message from officer mark!" i yelled out, the Jolteon trotted over and took the note from me, "thanks kid, and hey good luck with everything tonight you guys" he said,

"Trust me we will need it" i said,

10-PM november fifteenth 2019

I watched off of the side of the petersons event center, beside me is a kid i went to school with, in his arms is a modified glock having a stock added of course i had a small bag i was supposed to leave by a wall, and he had the detonator, the bag was delivered and i just got back, he looked at me and looked at the clock,

"You ready?" he asked "Yes ready as ever" i said as he slid a knife across the floor, i grabbed it up in my muzzle and followed him, as we left the room he pressed the detonator, causing an explosion of course the guards went into high alerts, gunshots began to ring out across the city,

We begin our run to the depo and my buddy takes out on guard but as we round the corner he gets shot in the neck, causing him to stumble and hit the floor,

I look at the person, no Animal who shot him, he sees me i look at him aim his gun, as he pulls the trigger the barrel of his gun bends and his gun jams, i charge him and jump on him he falls back and i slit his neck, it tries to quell the bleeding i stick the knife between its eyes, and they roll back, I then begin to attack any of the defenders to the other side of the compound from behind, by the end i had killed at least 12 of the creatures,

Then i ran to my friend there was already a person tending to his wounds,

Of course one of the radios from a rebel was going off now, something about the fort-pitt tunnel,

I decided to leave the medic and my friend alone for now and make my way to see what's going on.

10:30 PM post gazette building roof facing the fort-pitt bridge,

"Yes if you have an active Bradley, and capable crew we need it at the fort-pitt tunnel!" the same cop from earlier said into a radio beside him a guardsmen with a blue and red flame patch on him,

"Hey kid good work with that ammo dump" he said as i walked up to him,

"No problem" i told him noticing the javelin tubes on the roof,

"I still can't get over the fact that all these people are now pokemon, and not only that but what is being said by some of the officers, like people like him are now animals" the guardsmen said,

I noticed a whirring noise coming from the tunnels,

"I hear something!" i said,

"Here kid take this" the cop tells me, handing me a red sharpie, and a laminated piece of paper,

I take the sharpie and write the word tank,

"Tank coming down the tunnel!" the cop said,

"Understood" the guardsmen said, as he said that the lights around the city came on for the first time in weeks,

A cheering could be heard from around the city even a howl from some elementals, could be heard,

"That crazy jolteon actually did it" the cop said,

I looked over the edge of the building and saw the street lights, all on bringing light to the people, and at the same time a heavily armored abrams rolled out of the tunnel on its barrel is a red and blue spray paint lightning bolt, then two more abrams and two bradleys, one of which also had a lightning bolt on it,

"BACKBLAST!" the guardsmen called,

I looked behind him no one was there and I gave an affirmative bark, within the second a small explosion occurred in the barrel of the javelin and then the missile left the tube activating its main booster and hitting an abrams from above, causing its ammo rack to detonate and blowout panel to burst into flames and then the tank seemingly shut down, from the building next to us

And even behind us, causing the tanks and AFVs they hit to detonate,

In the end about 5 vehicles remain and an Apache gunship crests the hill, having come from the airbase i was surprised to see it turn to the bridge and fire two hell fires at the only tank to have fired a round, having missed us and hit a bridge support beam and bouncing into the water,

Of the only tank to have actually been destroyed outright was the abrams hit by the hell fires,

The others ditched their vehicles and tried to run back into the tunnel but were stopped by the dismounts from a bradley and captured one of the dismounts firing a shot from his handgun and being mowed down, of course the soldiers who were captured were marched down the bridge and the friendly abrams and bradley rolled down the bridge and stopped just at the point,

As for the apache it landed at the point as well, i decided to get ready to head home, and see if everything was okay.

11:00 PM,

"I jumped into the kitchen window which had clearly been left open, and when i got in i saw our living room had been turned into an infirmary for the rebel's my grandfather was cooking a meal on the stove and my grandmother was working on tending to the wounds of a human rebel wearing a police uniform, and a rebel medic trying to help a Flareon who had been shot i went upstairs to my room and grabbed a first aid kit with more supplies in it and brought it to the medic, who took it thanked me and used the tweezers to pull a round out of the Flareon, it looked like a .50 cal round, of course the Flareon was in pain but there wasn't much to do about it, as the hospitals were all odds are full of people as well, so i tried my best to give some space and go up stairs to sleep,

I i went into my room and curled up and looked out of my window to see snow falling to the ground, as i fell asleep all i could think was the easy part is done now for the hard part,
