Hello and welcome to the 1st chapter I hope this will be enough to satisfy you.
Over the ruins of what was once new the skies were clouded and barely had any light coming through leaving a dark and gloomy outlook on the place.
The streets are ragged and littered with debris and battle scars; while the buildings slowly crumble and erode. Up in the air small drones with quad spinners were scouting about looking for any signs of life. As it passed by wall street it detected some life readings nearby to a deserted firm. Before the machine could enter and pack of rats came out and scatter catching its attention; it determined that the vermin were the life readings and moved
on. When the coast was clear a figure appeared out of thin air showing it was cloaked, and hiding from the patrol. The person was was wearing in military gear which consisted of full on tactical vest, combat slacks, gloves, face mask with visor, and a tattered cloak. The solider checked out the window to make sure nothing else was coming before calling in. "This is SH-1 calling omega base, come in omega base" he said waiting for a response; "SH-1 This is omega base please report the status of your mission over" the mission coordinator said. "Mission still a go waiting for coordinates on rendezvous point." he said as the coordinates are now being transmitted. "Continue onto objective Omega base out" the MC said; "Affirmative out" he said before ending the transmission and continuing to the objective.
The world is in ever constant war of man vs machine since HawkVoid took over. It all started when it was suddenly activated and spread through the web until it reaches the communications centers and military infrastructures containing their greatest weapons. Soon they shut down the centers and fired at key target locations crippling them to a great extent, and if that wasn't enough it took over all automated factories and, begins constructing unmanned war machines for an offensive force. The synthetic militia begins attacking wherever they can exterminate everything in their path; though humanity's armies fought bravely and without fear they too slowly began to fall. To preserve their race they went underground to hide and survive from the A.I.'s watchful gaze and only remnants of the world's military remained to keep the machines at bay. The war is taking its toll and with no end in sight; however thanks to one of the last brilliant minds alive a dangerous mission will give them a chance to set things right and it will be up to four of the youngest of the militias to change it.
Soon the lone figure reached his destination which was an abandoned Broadway theatre and entered it discreetly. Looking around he noticed it was in a terrible state and wondered what it was like before the war as he was born in it. He reached the stage noticing a middle aged man in an old hunting suit was sitting with his back to facing him. "About time you got here the rest of your squad was getting angsty" the older squaddie said; "Hey we're not known for our calm and relaxing nature" a voice said from nowhere. Three more figures appeared on the stage looking like the figure only in different colors and sizes. The first one seemed to be around the same height as the masked GI only his gear is in the color grey. The second legionnaire is easily the tallest of the four and has all his stuff in navy blue. The last regular is somewhat between the first and second's height with his equipment and clothes in a dark bronze. "Ok soldiers unit name and class" the captain ordered. "Bronze Bear, Tech and support specialist" said the Bronze one. "Shadow Shark, Assault and demolition professional" said the blue titan. "Bold Eagle, Recon and marksman master" said the grey legionnaire. "Plasma Beetle, Leader and hand-to-hand expert" said the first one in white. "Ok here's our mission: a few clicks from here there's a building in it are the most heavily secured vaults in the country. Built before day zero they were made to secure one of a kind items from opposite sides; we are to infiltrate the facility get the HVT from a specific vault then exfil by Humvee back to base" The captain explained. The unit understood and began their trek to the vaults.
The vaults were not important so they were left unguarded most of the time. The group was able to enter the building without being seen and ventured up the upper levels. They made it to the entrance which was locked tight and blocked by a laser shield; Bear did his thing and used his device to hack into console. Once the shield was down the captain proceeded to open the door. "No time for slow and easy" he said then pried the door making a screeching noise. The team only covered their ears trying to ignore the noise; "way to stealthy sir" shark said sarcastically. "The moment Bear hacked into the system it set off a silent alarm; they're already on their way here" he finished surprising the unit. Once the door was opened they went inside look for the right vault; "Shark number twelve" the captain pointed to safe with numeral twelve. Shark jumped on the table and aimed his tempest launcher "dibs" he said jokingly as he fired blasting the safe door off. As the smoked cleared a small object rests within; one sides metallic looking advanced while its connected to glass cylinder with a small light blue ball floating in the center. Beetle picked it up wondering what it was as the rest examined it; "the quantum trigger" Bear said gaining looks from his comrades. "It's a detonator made of pure energy" bear said; "With this we could finally end the war" captain said as Beetle secured it. A strange sound was heard signaling the arrival of the enemy. "Run" eagle said quietly as they ran to reach the armored vehicle; Bear tried remotely closing the doors but, their pursuers only blasted through them. They made it to a maintence hatch and all descended downward except the captain. "What are you doing!?" shark asked; the place shook as the machines almost breached the door, "my times finally come to an end" the captain said. "Hell no! we call do this sir come on!" Beetle yelled but the captain just smirked before saying"Get your ugly wardrobes outta here their hurting my eyes" and then closed the hatch. Waiting for the inevitable the ceiling burst reavealing two machine one on tank legs with a tail that has curved plasma blade and the a floating drone with quad rocket launchers. "A bit late to the party aren't ya fellows" the captain said before being impaled with the blade of the tailed bot. It dosent stop there as it starts slowly twisting it to deliver unbearable pain. "OK! OK! OK!" he said reaching for his pocket; "well you know the old saying: Always go out with a bang!" his final words were before pulling out a detonator and pressing the button.
Outside the squadron made it to the Humvee only to hear the explosion . They looked back only to know that their CO is dead; "it won't be in vain sir" Beetle said before the team enters the vehicle and leave to the save zone.
So how was it good; on the next and final chapter I will make sense of the mission and what the team will do.
