Well, here I go again. I promised myself that I wouldn't publish anymore stories until I updated my other stories, but I once again inspiration hit me with a mallet like one of those old cartoons. Right, so recently I got into the anime called Gate or the full title Gate: Thus the Japanese Self-Defense Force Fought in Their Land.

And the story is about a gate opens and an army comes and attack a city in Japan. After that the Japanese Self Defense Force goes in and both explores and deals with threats in the new world. With the main character being Yoji Itami a JSDF Lieutenant and a Otaku. And I believe I did watch the first episode some time ago, but lost interest, but I tried watching it again and I immediately got into it. After that, I went straight to FFN and read some stuff on it, and also liked it. I'll have a list of the Gate stories I liked on the bottom of the chapter.

So after reading some crossovers with Call of Duty, that's how I came up with this. The premise is that Modern Warfare 3 character Frost is the main character, I did think about Roach, but I went with Frost. And I set him up with the Warrior Bunny Delilah. I was debating on her, Mamina, Shino Kuribayashi or Mari Kurokawa. But I kept coming back to Delilah so there, sorry to the Yanagida X Delilah fans out there. Heck, maybe in the future I'll go the Itami route, not sure.

The timeline for this is set in the reboot Modern Warfare Universe and sometime after the events of Modern Warfare 2. So expect characters from not just this, but also other references as well.

Also expect military terms, I'm not military so if any of you are and see a mistake, please let me know.

So not much else to say, but to enjoy, fav, follow and review this please. And if you have the time, please check out my other stuff please.

I own none of the content, enjoy!


A man in his early twenties yawned as he walked out of the Japanese subway train, and looked around. He saw a sign of that said 'Ginza Station' and he knew he was in the right place. Derek Westbrook or how he was known in the military, Sergeant Derek 'Frost' Westbrook of the U.S Army Rangers. Or formally Rangers, he was two months fresh from Delta Force training after he had been promoted to Sergeant. He had already been assigned to Team Metal, led by Master Sergeant Jason 'Sandman' Richards, with Sergeant First Class Andre 'Truck' Evans and Sergeant First Class Andy 'Grinch' Clark. They were a pretty cool group of people, who welcomed him with open arms. Although he did receive teasing and jokes for being the new guy, but he could handle it, and went with it. It was worth it though, he did love being in the military.

He had signed up for Army after he graduated from High School when he was 18. When he turned twenty, he went into the Army Rangers. After that, he was selected to go into Delta Force at 22. And he was proud of it, and being in the military. In fact, his family had a proud history of being in the military. They even had records dating back to the American Revolution. With his family history of military service, it reminded him of the character Lieutenant Dan from the movie Forest Gump, and how he had family in all major conflicts that America has been in.

Minus the fact that every one of Dan's family members died in every war, except for him though, thanks to Tom Hank's character saving him. Sure Frost had family members die, but it didn't develop into a complex of sorts like Dan. But that wasn't important.

But since becoming a part of Delta Force, Team Metal had done nothing but missions since Frost had been assigned to the team. Taking out Al-Qatala cells in the Middle East, mainly in Urzikstan, and working with the Resistance Fighters. Cleaning up Cartel's down south of the border, including the splintered Las Alamas, who were dealt a major blow by Task Force 141. Or doing various other missions that were classified and not known by the public.

Speaking of Urzikstan, three years after General Barkov was killed, his factory in Georgia was destroyed and he was also disavowed by Russia. Russia had pulled out of the country by early 2020, and the country was busy rebuilding. Even though there was still a presence of Al-Qatala and some Russian forces who left the Russian Army. But they were being taken care of by either local Urzik military forces, or Special Forces groups.

Although a part of him had wished to have been a part of Task Force 141's recent mission to stop AQ affiliated terrorist Major Hassan Zyani. He heard that Hassan was close to detonating a Ballistic Missile in DC, and he had launched it in Chicago. Truck was livid when heard about the latter, due to him hailing from Chicago, and wished he was the one to kill the bastard.

After thwarting that attack, and dealing with the fallout with Shadow Company after Commander Philip Graves's betrayal and death. The U.S was now trying to find General Shepherd, who had betrayed everyone, by trying to cover up that it was his and Graves fault that the missiles were stolen by Russian PMC's. But the General went into hiding, and had both the influence and resources to make it hard to find him.

He did ask Sandman if they were going to be a part of it, but the Sergeant merely smirked, and said that 141's leader; SAS Captain John Price had called dibs on finding Shepherd. Sandman had worked with Price before, and he had full faith in him. So Frost decided to drop it.

After their last mission, Team Metal was assigned to go to Japan for some joint training with other U.S forces and the Japanese Self Defense Force. It was both to solidify more of both countries relations, but to also give the normal show of solidarity and power against the rising threat of China, North Korea and the same old jazz.

The joint training lasted for two weeks, and Frost was happy when Sandman told him, Grinch and Truck that Command had no other missions for them. And that their orders were to stay in Japan until further notice. Not only that, but Sandman had given the team a three day break, due to the hard work they have been doing.

Which was fine with Frost, it was nice to finally get some rest. And to also explore Japan a little as well, but first he had to something to do. And it also involved his companion.

A Japanese man in his early thirties walked next to him, and he had an excited look on his face.

"Man, this convention only happens twice in a year! You're lucky you found me yesterday during joint training. We're early enough to get some of the good stuff." He said in accented English.

The man's name was Yōji Itami, he was a Lieutenant in the JSDF, and even though Frost had known him for a short time, he knew he was a slacker. And Frost wasn't fan of Itami's type, but during training he took it serious enough. He was even disappointed to find out he only joined the military, was to finance his hobbies. Not for pride in country, or to defend it, but he wasn't his keeper, so he let it slide.

He still wondered how he managed to get into the JSDF Rangers and Special Forces, with just minimal effort or luck though.

Frost had met Itami during training, or after training, he had asked a couple of JSDF members if they knew of anything anime related happening nearby. Frost himself was into anime, but he wouldn't call himself an Otaku. But his younger sister Chelsea was, and when he had called her and the family that day, she had begged him to get some stuff when she found out he was in Japan. The soldiers he talked to had directed him to Itami, who was a known Otaku and knew when there was any type of anime convention. So that's how Frost found himself with Itami now.

"I hope so… you wouldn't happen to know any of the good 18+ doujin would you?" Frost asked both uncertain and slightly embarrassed.

He wasn't into the racier or mature stuff, but Chelsea had asked him to get her one of a male anime character she was into. How he was going to mail it without anyone noticing, especially Grinch, who was known to get crack jokes and tease, he could only guess. That and also how Chelsea was going to hide it from their parents.

"I sure do. Let me know what you want, and I'll help you find it." Itami happily said.

"It's not for me, it's for my sister." Frost quickly corrected him. "I'm just glad she didn't ask for any Yaoi stuff."

Itami looked surprised, and said," She's into that?"

"Heck if I know. And that's something I don't want to know." Frost said as they got onto the escalator.

Frost looked out from the side, and saw the streets and buildings. People were going about their day, friends, family were walking about. And he saw some birds flying around, and watched as a man on a small dragon fly through the air, and disappeared behind a building…

Frost blinked, he then rubbed his eyes, and looked at the direction again. But he didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

He chalked it up from feeling still slightly hurt from what happened yesterday. How he got his ass handed to him by a petite, big boobed female JSDF member could be anyone's guess.

Grinch had laughed his ass off, and teased him to no end. Truck had laughed, and quipped that he knew girls in his neighborhood that could go toe-to-toe with her. And Sandman, who was used to their antics, merely gave him feedback that was half praise, and half something akin to saying he needed more CQC training so he wouldn't get his ass handed to him again by a girl again.

That had wounded his pride.

Frost got out of his possible bout of insanity when he heard people screaming. He and Itami looked outside to see people screaming and running away from something. they were more surprised when they saw what Frost saw earlier. People were riding dragons in the air, and they unfortunately saw one dragon pick a civilian from the ground, and took them to god knows where.

When they looked down in the street, Frost saw what looked to be anthropometric beast like creatures charging at civilians with swords, hammers or maces. And they attacked and killed civilians.

Frost narrowed his eyes, and looked at Itami, who nodded and they took off. Frost pulled out his phone, and dialed a number.

Once they picked up, Frost wasted no time in saying," Boss, this is Frost. We have a Priority One threat in Ginza District of Tokyo. I repeat, an unknown number of hostiles are attacking. This isn't a drill."


Earlier, civilians around an intersection were watching something appear in the middle of a street. They all talked excitedly or looked on curiously at what was happening, and many were recording from their phones. The thing materialized fully, and it showed to be a giant ornate arch, and in the middle of the arch, was nothing but blackness. Nothing happened for what felt like minutes, but the people soon saw something come out of the arch.

A large dragon flew out of gate like thing. Everything looked on in amazement, thinking it was some type of show. But that thought was soon squashed with what had happened next.

More things came out of the gate, and various creatures that looked like monsters or anthropometric animals came out, wielding various weapons. After them, that was when humans came out of the gate, either on foot or were on horses. What was more surprising was that they were all dressed like they were ancient Romans. Even right down to them using swords, spears, bows, shields and wearing ancient armor.

The lead soldier who wore flashy, ornate armor was on a horse. He surveyed everything, and smirked.

"For the glory of the Saderan Empire! For Emperor Molt Sol Augustus! Attack!" He bellowed.

One of the soldiers blew a large horn, and the army roared as they charged. The civilians all started to scream and run away as fast as they could, for those unlucky enough; they were stabbed, trampled, set on fire by the flying dragons, or just outright killed.

More troops came out of the gate, with some even setting up base near the gate. Another man in ornate armor came out of the gate, and he was on a horse. He stopped and surveyed the area, and sighed sadly at the dead civilians.

'Such a waste.' He thought.

He heard someone approach him, and turned to see what looked like a woman. The glaring differences were that she had long pointed rabbit like ears that protruded from her head. She had some fur on her, and she wore what looked like warrior getup. And she also had slight war paint on her face.

The woman looked around in awe.

"I have never seen buildings this tall before. Their builders must be very gifted." She muttered.

The man on the horse smiled, and said," It looks like it, Delilah. But we'll have time to look around once this battle is over. I'm going to strategize with the others; you go and attack along with the others."

Delilah smirked, which looked rather bloodthirsty, hoping to get a chance to fight this worlds champions.

"Yes, Master Formal." She said with a bow. She then unsheathed her blade, and took off.

Count Colt Formal got off of his horse, and walked over to the makeshift command post. He just hoped this would all be over soon and return to Italica; he didn't want to make his daughter Myui worried.


39 year old Delta Force Operator Master Sergeant Jason 'Sandman' Richards walked out of the conference room of the base. He had just finished a meeting with a couple of his superiors, as well as some of the JSDF's officers. So far, joint training had been going well, and command had allowed everyone a couple days of rest. Which was a good thing, due to Sandman knowing his team deserved some R&R before shit hit the fan again, and they would be needed.

He was planning on going to his office and finish up some paperwork, and then crack open a cold beer. But he stopped when he saw someone walking out of another conference room. SAS Captain John Price leader of Task Force 141 was walking out of it, and he turned to see Sandman approaching him.

"John, good to see you. You're looking well." Sandman said as he shook the Captain's hand.

"Same to you Sergeant. How've things been?" Price asked.

"Good, two months worth of missions. And I blame my new rookie. Y'know, I heard what you and your Task Force have been doing. Good work with taking out Hassan. If it was my team, we would've buried that piece of shit a lot sooner than how long you lot took to do." Sandman joked.

Price smirked, and said," Well we would've done it sooner if Graves and Shepherd hadn't mucked up and tried to cover their arse's."

Sandman nodded, he had never met the CEO of Shadow Company, but had fought with Shadow Company before. Good fighters and support, although the talk about their pay and how much got old. Although Truck had jokingly said if the pay was good, he wouldn't have minded switching jobs.

While for Shepherd, Sandman had work under him before, and respected him as a leader. But now, he held the same sentiment as Price towards him.

"Any word yet on the good General?"

"No, but Laswell said we'd be the first she'll let know on his whereabouts. I told that piece of shite that I was coming for him. And I make do on my promises."

Sandman slightly pitied Shepherd for the mess he got himself into. But it didn't last long.

"Well if you need backup if the good General doesn't come quietly, give us a call. My new guy Frost is a good sniper. Calm and cool under pressure. How did your new guy get his name? Roach is a funny name."

Price nodded with small smirk, and said, "I'll hold you to that. And yeah the kids name is odd. Apparently he has been known to survive anything. And somehow get out of situations that would kill someone."

Before they could continue, Sandman felt his phone vibrate in his pants. He took it out, and was surprised to see it was Frost.

He answered it, and was about to greet him, but his newest subordinate beat him too it.

"Boss, this is Frost. We have a Priority One threat in Ginza District of Tokyo. I repeat, an unknown number of hostiles are attacking. This isn't a drill. Send all assets to Ginza and the surrounding area." Frost said into the phone.

Sandman didn't waste any time, and said," Copy Frost, give us updates when you can. Coordinate with local law enforcement. Hang tight, we're on our way."

He then looked at Price, who had a serious look and nodded, which meant he heard.

The both of them sprinted to the meeting room Sandman had just gotten out of. And while also forming a plan to put a stop to whatever was going on.


Frost thought if a civilian population was attacked, it would be like Al-Qatala's attack on Piccadilly Circus three years ago. Or any other attack that caught a terrorist groups fancy. What he didn't expect was to have an army that came straight out of the time of the long dead Roman Empire to attack, pillage and slaughter everything and everyone around them.

Not to mention the numerous monster soldiers who were invading alongside the regular human soldiers… and also dragons, can't forget the dragons. If he saw a wizard or some other type of creature or person from a fantasy novel, he'll start thinking he had a bad concussion from that Kuribayashi chick he sparred with. And he was in the infirmary unconscious after getting head trauma, and he was having one fucked up dream.

Once he and Itami got to the streets, they started to usher civilians away. And they also saved a cop, well Itami fought the soldier who the cop had shot off the dragon he was riding, and was able to get up, and attack him. Those two ended up in hand-to-hand combat, and Frost picked up the discarded sword, and impaled the guy from behind. The soldier gurgled from the blood choking him, and fell to the ground, dead.

"You good?" Frost asked.

"Yeah, I'm good… so I guess going to the convention is out of the question?" Itami asked with a sigh.

'That's what your worried about?!' Frost thought incredulously.

Frost ignored him and went over to the cop, and he took out his military ID.

"Sergeant Derek Westbrook, United States Military, Delta Force. And Yōji Itami, Lieutenant in the JSDF. What's the plan, officer?" Frost asked.

The officer looked frazzled from what was happening, but composed himself, and said," W-we have officers herding civilians towards the Imperial Palace. And we have armed officers arriving in 20 minutes. But we're having trouble with whoever is attacking."

"Damn, we need support. How long until the military gets here?" Itami asked.

"Not long, due to all the training we've been doing, the wait won't be long. Officer, do you have any weapons in your vehicle?"

The officer nodded, and said," Y-yeah, even though we don't need them, due to strict gun laws, but we have weapons in our vehicles."

"We're gonna need it, especially if we're gonna help the civilians get to the palace."

Frost, Itami and the officer ran to his vehicle, the officer opened the trunk and handed Frost an AR-15, and all the ammo it came from it. While Itami got a Shogun. Frost slammed the magazine into the rifle, and dialed Sandman's number again.

"Frost? What's the situation?"

"Police are herding civies to the Imperial Palace sir. Myself and a JSDF Lieutenant are helping them."

"Roger, be safe, we'll be heading to your position soon. Air support will be there momentarily."

Frost ended the call, looked at Itami, and said," Well your the superior officer, lead the way."


With Sandman, after him and Price sounded the alarm, everyone was quick to start watching local news channels, and were shocked by what was happening. Luckily, due to the drills, it didn't take that long for everyone to gear up. And the attack choppers and a couple of jets had already taken off.

Sandman checked the sights of his M4A1 as he sprinted to a chopper, with Grinch and Truck following him. Two other people were with them, two Japanese women, one tall while the other one was short. The first was JSDF Medic Sergeant First Class Mari Kurokawa, and the latter was Sergeant First Class Shino Kuribayashi.

"Hey boss! What did Frost say about what's happening?" Truck asked.

"Let's just say everything has gone to shit, and leave it at that."

"Like that isn't how things normally go." Grinch quipped.

Kuribayashi chuckled darkly, and said," Sounds like my type of fun."

Kurokawa could only sigh in exasperation.

The five of them got into the Blackhawk, once they were aboard, the chopper took off. Besides them, there was other people in the Blackhawk.

"Glad you could join us!" Price said.

Price was joined by Sergeant Kyle 'Gaz' Garrick, Lieutenant Simon 'Ghost' Riley, Sergeant Johnny 'Soap' MacTavish, and newest member of 141 Sergeant Garry 'Roach' Sanderson.

Gaz saw Shino and Kurokawa asked," What're they doing here?"

"Our Major ordered us to come along with Team Metal. Due to you guys heading to the Palace. And there are a lot of injured people to help." The medic said.

"And I was hoping to see my sparring buddy with you guys! I was hoping for a rematch where he could beat me." Shino said.

Grinch raised a brow, and said," You want him to beat you?"

"Yeah, any guy who can beat me in a fight is hot in my book. That's how I get my boyfriends, but not many." She said annoyed.

"She's an interesting one, huh kid?" Ghost said to Roach, who nodded.

Grinch snorted, and leaned over to Truck," She's all yours man."

"Bravo Actual, Metal 0-1, this is Watcher, how copy?" Price heard in his comm.

"Copy Watcher, we hear you, over." Sandman said.

"I hear you Kate, what's the situation?" Price asked.

"Bad, reports and videos are coming in, enemy attack force seemed to appear out of nowhere in the middle of the Ginza District, but we figured out they came out of some type of structure. Enemy troops are overrunning the place… and some are even attacking women. Bastards."

Everyone didn't need to know what she meant by the last part, and the mood darkened in the chopper. Shino narrowed her eyes, and cracked her knuckles. While Kurokawa shivered in disgust at the thought.

"Also, all Embassies close by are secured, but enemy troops are either converging or are trying to get in. Embassy personal is holding, but they'll need reinforcements soon. These idiots aren't ones to back down. Other troops will be taking care of the ground forces, while Air Support will do the same, as well as deal with enemy air assets. That's why 141, Metal and whoever is with you will be separated. Over."

"Copy, Watcher, lets us know when you have more orders. Out." Price said.

"Got it, stay safe out there, cause right now… things are going to change." Kate said, and ended the talk.

Price nodded, even though the CIA Station Chief couldn't see him do it. He then looked at Sandman," Gaz, Ghost and I will head for the British Embassy. Soap and Roach will be with your team."

"Got it. Truck, you, I and Soap will be dropped off at the American Embassy. We won't allow another Urzikstan Embassy incident to happen again. The rest of you will be dropped off with other forces at the Palace. Everyone understand?" Sandman said.

Everyone nodded, and Sandman braced himself for another mission.


"This is Deadly 1-1, we are approaching Ginza. All stations, attack enemy ground and air units. But watch out for civilians and friendlies. And do not fire on the buildings, unless fired upon. How copy?"

Captain Rebecca Pelayo received various affirmatives from her fellow pilots. Besides her fellow American Airmen, there were a couple of Japanese pilots as well. Pelayo would be lying if she said she wasn't shocked about what was happening. It was just yesterday she was training with her fellow pilots from a different country about cooperation and teamwork. But now, they were all flying towards an actual warzone in the capital of Japan.

Reports were already coming in, and instead of the threat of the Chinese, North Korean or Middle Eastern terrorists, the reports were saying that a hostile medieval army was attacking. It didn't make any sense and she thought it was some kind of prank, or another drill but the reports weren't lying.

"This is Horseman 1-2, uh… I'm seeing what looks like dragons and men flying them coming our way." One of the Japanese pilots said in an uncertain voice.

Pelayo blinked and looked at her scopes, and could see a group of small dragons flying towards them.

"Uh Keating, your seeing this right?" She asked her Co-Pilot/Gunner.

"Affirmative Captain… did we end up in some fantasy world or something?"

"No we didn't, but get ready to fire."

No sooner did she saw that, that the dragons fired fireballs at their riders command. Pelayo and everyone else did evasive maneuvers, and the pilots and gunners started their attack too. She got a lock, and fired a missile at one of the dragons and its rider, and took satisfaction when it blew up. But she then had to brace herself when she felt her helicopter got hit by something. She checked her instruments and sensors, and everything looked normal.

"Shit! Keating, origin on that hit?"

"It came from the ground, sir. Which is odd, reports said that the enemy doesn't have any anti-air. Hang on, let me check... yeah I'm confirming it. It looks like a person with some type of staff? Looks like a wizard." He said.

Pelayo blinked, and then said through the comms," All air units... enemy has anti-air. Watch out for tango's who have staffs, they look like wizards."

If it wasn't for what was attacking the city, Pelayo would've thought this was one weird dream.


Frost and Itami ducked when another arrow came flying at them, and Frost fired another round at an approaching enemy soldier. The both of them had made it to the Imperial Palace earlier, after rounding up civilians and taking them there. There was a brief issue of the guards not allowing anyone to come in, but one phone call from the Emperor himself that the guards finally did so..

As the civilians were being let in, Frost and Itami had formed a defensive line with surviving Police Officers, as well as the arriving Japanese Police Special Assault Teams (They are the equivalent of SWAT). So far enemy troops were going down like rocks, due to their armor not being a match to modern bullets. But they just kept coming, and a few with bows or spears were getting lucky.

"Captain, we just got word that the enemy forces are converging on us. Around a couple of hundred." An officer said to the SAT Captain.

The captain then looked at Frost and Itami, and asked," When did you say the military will be here?"

Frost was about to answer, but he smirked when he heard helicopter rotors.

"Right now."

The approaching enemy army stopped when they heard a loud noise, and they looked up in confusion and fear when they saw some sort of flying contraption. But they didn't have long to think about what it was, when the helicopter gunner started to fire the minigun.

Frost felt a second of pity when the helicopters started to fire into the enemy formations like they were nothing, and he took satisfaction when he saw those dragons fall from the sky. either bullet ridden or nothing but parts, due to being blown up by rockets from the Attack Helicopters

"Jeez, can't help be feel sorry for them." Itami said.

Frost snorted, and said," I don't, after what I saw some of them do to civilians, they deserve it."

Frost looked up when another helicopter approached, and ropes were thrown out. he then smiled when he saw soldiers come down, and some he was familiar with. Grinch was the first land on the ground, and when he saw Frost, he went over him and patted his shoulder.

"Glad to see your still alive kid. The Calvary has arrived." Grinch said, as he dropped a duffle bag at Frost's feet.

Roach, Kuribayashi and Kurokawa landed on the ground, and surveyed the scene. Kurokawa medic instincts were kicking in, due to seeing the wounded enemy soldiers.

Kuribayashi on the other hand went over to Frost, and punched his shoulder with a smile.

"Hey there Frosty, how's about a rematch once all of this is over, huh?"

Frost ignored her, as he and Itami put on their vests and helmets, and then got their weapons out. Frost smirked at his M4A1 with a Hybrid sight, Foregrip, and then checked his sidearm, which his personal Colt M1911.

Grinch looked at Itami and asked," Who are you?"

"Second Lieutenant Yōji Itami of the JSDF." Itami said.

"Well, guess you're our superior for now, sir. What's the plan?"

"Uh, we head out into the city with the military. We defend against or attack the enemy attack force. While also looking for civilians, because I don't think all of them were able to escape." Itami said the last part solemnly.

"Then let's pay the enemy back in full. We're with you." Grinch said.

"And get payback for ending the anime convention." Frost said.

Itami scowled, and said," Yeah, that is the most unforgiveable offense. Let's go people!"

Kuribayashi rolled her eyes in annoyance, and muttered as she followed them," Why the hell are we following the orders of a stupid Otaku."

Roach shrugged, and said," Beggar's can't be choosers right now I guess."


"Get that SAW up here now Irish! That battering ram isn't going to take out itself!" A U.S Marine yelled at his subordinates.

A Marine or Irish rushed over, got prone, and started to fire the M249 SAW at the front gate. He took out a couple of enemy soldiers, but more came and took their place.

The lead Marine fired alongside the Light Machine Gunner, while also wondering how the hell things ended up like this.

It was a normal day, until the sounds of explosions and screaming started to sound throughout the area. When the first civies came looking for sanctuary, the U.S Embassy personnel went on high alert. They had barely closed and locked the extra reinforced gates, when the first enemy troops arrived. They couldn't get in, but they resorted to fire arrows or spears at them, and then started to ram the gate with a battering ram.

After the fall and massacre of the U.S Embassy in Urzikstan a couple of years ago, which made the 1979 Hostage Crisis at the U.S Embassy in Iran look like child's play. All U.S Embassies were refortified and stocked with enough ammo and supplies that could supply a small army. Not to mention all the new security measures, even if the country was friendly, but Washington wasn't taking any chances.

But the enemy soldiers, or were they Roman Legionaries? Hell if he knew. They didn't heed the defenses, nor the Marine's verbal commands to vacate and were trying to break in. They weren't getting that far, especially with the fence being electrified (meant to to deter, not to kill) but anything could happen.

"Sir! Their bringing in ladders on the walls!" Irish said.

The Marine cursed as he saw an enemy soldier climb the wall, and he took him out.

"Don't worry, the mines will take care of them. Then we'll soften them up." He said.

One of the new security measures, were the Smart Mines. They were placed around the inside grounds of the Embassy, and they would only activate or be turned on if a huge enough threat warranted them.

The Marine was then surprised and relieved, due to a Helicopter approaching. And someone was manning the Minigun on it, and was mowing through the troops.

Fast ropes were thrown out, and a couple of troops rappelled down. He was surprised and relieved when he saw one of them had a Delta Force patch, and another had the Task Force 141 patch.

"Heard you guys needed some help. Delta Force and Task Force 141 heard your guys call." Sandman said.

The Marine blinked and chuckled," Geez, we weren't expecting Special Forces to save our asses. Staff Sergeant William Dunn, sir. I'm leading officer. Glad you could make it."


General Elpenor El Marcus could not believe how things have gone terribly wrong. The attack into the Empires new territory had gone smoothly, and the riches and bounty collected so far had brought morale up. As well as further glory to the Saderan Empire and the Emperor.

He also marveled at the cities architecture, various buildings nearby and beyond seemed to stretch to the heavens. He would admit he thought about becoming an architect when he was younger, but he had come from a military family. One that had honor, tradition and his father didn't allow that. He hated him for ruining his dream, but after going to the Military Academy, he ended up looking up to his father more, and felt ashamed of even considering not fighting for the Emperor and the Empire.

He also couldn't forget about the influx of slaves, and the women in particular. He saw the looks his men were giving them, and he promised them they would have their way with them. After the initial assault was complete, even if Marcus himself wouldn't mind to do the same. But, he couldn't let himself get distracted, even if the assault was in their favor.

The assault in question was as per usual in favor of the Empire and its Legionaries. And the enemy's inhabitants hadn't been putting up much of a fight. Sure there was a few who looked like soldiers with weapons that could spew fire had taken out or wounded some of his troops. Which begged the question of what type of magic did they use. But they soon fell when it looked like their magic staffs power gave out.

But everything soon fell apart, due to what he supposed was this world's military finally showed their honor, and attacked. And they attacked ferociously and deadly.

Loud explosions echoed throughout the city and in the air. His troops were decimated as they exploded from the enemy's magic. Iron Pegasus's flew through the sky, some even taking out Wyvern's and their riders. They were even dismounting enemy troops.

And these troops fired staffs that spewed fire as well, and were more deadly. His troop's armor and their shields were like wood, and were cut down with holes in them. Even the Mages they had were cut down.

It was due to this that the battle was starting to become not in their favor. Not that he would ever admit it, he had never retreated, and that had always led him to victory.

But as him and his subordinates talked about strategy and the chaos, he was starting to think all was lost in their makeshift command post near the gate. And that they should all cut their losses, go back into the gate, get reinforcements from the capital, and fight the invaders on their own land.

Even though he had a small feeling that wouldn't be enough to stop them.

"I say we should retreat! Our forces are being decimated!"

"Have you no honor!? The Emperor frowns upon those who are weak!"

"I agree! Let them come, and face the full might of our Legionnaires! Let our blades, spears and swords be the last thing they see!"

Elpenor looked over at Count Colt Formal, who had remained quiet throughout the discussion.

"And what says you Count? You've been quiet." The General asked.

Formal blinked, and looked at his superior, and said," Apologies, I've just been thinking. If the reports that Delilah have been giving me is true, then it's best that we should order a tactical retreat. And then regroup in Alnus. That way, once these people arrive, they'll feel the full force of our military."

"And you trust that savages word!?" A Captain said aghast.

Elpenor thought about Formal's number one bodyguard, soldier and Assassin. She was one of the many Demi-Humans under Formal's staff and care back in Italica. Many thought that the Count liked the personal company of Demi-Humans, but he seemed to be the few who didn't view them as inferior. And thought that they deserved the same respect as regular people, and Elpenor had the same views. He remembered an elf that worked as a nanny under his family, and took care of him when his parents were busy. He had a lot of fond memories of her, and he did bring up giving Demi-Humans better rights in the Senate. But it fell on deaf ears, or he was laughed at.

For Delilah, like other members of her race, that being the Warrior Bunnies, they fought fiercely and yes savagely, and lived up to their name. But Elpenor had to admit they were good fighters, and he was there during the invasion led by Prince Zorzal into their lands. He had lost a lot of good men, but they soon prevailed. The war ended after the Warrior Bunnies Queen, Tyuule surrendered herself to Zorzal, and became his slave and personal plaything. In the hopes that Zorzal would spare her people, but the Prince went behind her back, and enslaved or scattered her people.

Personally Elpenor thought that was dishonorable, but he would never say that out loud, or in front of the Prince.

But Delilah was loyal to the Formal Clan and Italica, and she protected Colt and his family. So she would never deceive him or those close to him.

"I do, and she has never led me astray before." Formal said with conviction.

Elpenor cleared his voice to get everyone's attention, once he did, he said," I think I've heard enough. What we-"

Before he could finish, the room outside was engulfed by an explosion, and all Elpenor saw was black as he went into unconsciousness. And the thought of wondering why the Gods had forsaken them.


Delilah shook her blade that had blood on it, and looked at the enemy soldiers she killed. Around four in total, and she will admit, they were a challenge, especially with those staffs of fire. They did more damage than any arrow she had seen.

Beforehand, she didn't really see anyone fighting, a few did with small staffs that shot fire, but she easily took them out. But later on from the looks of it, this territories military had finally arrived. She saw flying chariots drop off enemy troops, and Iron Pegasus's spewed even more deadly fire arrows that seemed to destroy everything and everyone in their path. She had a feeling things weren't going so good for the Saderan's.

The troops that she fought had taken out the Imperial troops she was with, and she almost got hit herself. But even if those staffs fired fast fire arrows, she was quicker. And in no time, those soldiers now knew what happened when attacking a Warrior Bunny.

Tyuule would-

Delilah scowled at even thinking about that bitch's name. Her so called former Queen, the one that betrayed her people to become a whore to the Prince who enslaved or displaced everyone. She was one of the lucky few who had gotten work, and not something degrading like prostitution. The Formal Family brought her, cared for her, and gave her work. They saved her, and she was duty bound to be by their side.

But in regards to Tyuule, Delilah had sworn that if she ever got the chance, she would kill her, even if she herself died in the process. That way, she would bring honor back to the Warrior Bunnies.

She even hoped if she did well enough during this invasion, she would be honored at the capital. And then she would have the chance to kill her former Queen.

But now, she wasn't sure that would be the case.

She got out of her musings when she heard an explosion nearby, even though there was numerous going off, but this one caught her attention.

That explosion was where…

"Master!" She whispered in shock and then took off.


Frost punched an Imperial soldier, and then fired a round into his head. He then saw something in his peripheral vision, and fired a couple of rounds at advancing Imperial soldiers, who also went down. He looked around him, and saw everyone fighting the invading troops. And had to bite back a sigh, and also a gulp when he saw Kuribayashi stabbed a soldier with her bayonet, and then fired a full magazine into him. And then also punched another soldier and stabbed him. Man she fought savagely.

"Don't waste ammo! Fire in bursts!" Itami scolded.

"Right, got it!"

After Itami's order, the group went around the area to save civilians and fight off the invading forces along with other arriving troops. They did find civilians, some were okay, and were escorted back to friendly lines. But there were some who weren't so lucky, they were found dead. Frost had seen a lot of things in his career, but the way these Roman knockoffs killed them, and also the ways they were killed, or how their bodies were shown was disgusting. Not to mention how every once in a while, they would find traumatized women. Kurokawa or any other female soldier they had helped them, due to the women cowering when a man was near. He made a promise to find whoever did that, and make them suffer.

"This is Metal 0-1, does anyone copy?"

"Copy, Metal 0-4 here sir. What's up?"

"Bravo 0-1's squad and my squad are done protecting the Embassies. Also Watcher just informed us that friendlies are pushing enemy forces back. Everyone is converging on their Command Post near the gate. Tell the Lieutenant that we'll be converging on your position, and link up for the assault. Over."

"Copy, Metal 0-1, we'll be waiting. Hey Itami!"

"I heard, he knows I can hear in these comms right?" Itami thought aloud.

Grinch then smirked, looked over at Roach, and said," Heard you get injured a lot and live to tell the tale. Hope you survive this one."

Roach groaned, and said," You just had to jinx it."


Back with Delilah, she was rushing back to the command post, she pushed back Imperial soldiers who were in the way, while also dodging explosions. She made it back to where the gate was, and froze. Imperial troops were rushing around, either getting killed or were trying to fight. Others were actually running into the gate back home. The command post where the General and his officers were was destroyed, and some troops were helping the wounded. But a couple of them were hit by fire arrows from different directions.

She rushed over to it, and found General Marcus, who was missing a leg, and was bleeding from the head.

"General! Are you okay?"

Marcus groaned, and opened his good eye, and managed to say," L-leave, gather what f-forces are left. And w-warn the empire." He said and passed out.

Delilah would've, but she then saw someone else, and it was Count Formal, who was in the same state as the General.

"Master Formal! Please, you gotta make it! Think of Italica! Think of Myui!" She cried.

He only groaned, and Delilah flinched when another explosion hit. That hurt her ears, and she held them.

'Have the Gods forsaken us? What kind of magic is all of this?' She thought fearfully.

Another explosion and the sound of the enemies fire arrows was heard. She then got an idea, and started to drag Master Formal away, to a nearby alleyway. She then laid him against a wall, and looked out. Another explosion went off near her, and she ended up being pushed against the wall, and was left in a daze.


"Let's go! Move! Move! We got these bastards on the run!" Someone yelled.

Both American and Japanese forces were approaching gate, and the enemy soldiers who weren't killed, were wounded or were already dead. Reports were coming in that enemy forces that weren't dug in the city, were heading back to the gate structure. And both 141, Metal and others were given the order to secure it.

"Hey, I think I found some officers! And some of them look alive!" Gaz yelled.

"Kurokawa, your up." Itami ordered, and the medic rushed over to them.

"Frost, Roach, check the nearby alley's, there's probably stragglers." Sandman said.

Frost and Roach nodded, and went to the nearest one. They had their weapons trained, and slowly walked over to it.

"Still can't believe this shite. With all that's been happening, who or what else will we see?" Roach asked.

Frost shrugged at his British counterpart, and sighed tiredly," Who the fuck knows now, man. So far today I fought Roman's, monsters and saw Helicopters shoot down dragons. I even heard mentions of some of our guys fighting wizards. What's next? Elves, Hobbit's or maybe Sauron himself?"

Roach snorted and said," Yeah I wouldn't be surprised by now mate. Although it would be cool to meet Gandalf. Maybe Tolkien was from wherever these buggers are from?"

Before Frost could answer, they heard groaning nearby, and it was coming from the nearby alleyway.

"Well, looks like we found someone." Frost said.

"Yep, stay Frosty." Roach joked.

Frost had enough time to give his fellow new guy a rude hand gesture. They both approached the opening, and aimed their weapons when they got to the opening. They found two people… or one person and a creature that looked like a person. She had… long ears like a rabbit, some fur, and her what Frost could assume was her uniform, looked something out of what some Indian tribes may have worn. While the guy wore the same ornate armor like those near the gate.

"I'll check on that guy, you check rabbit girl." Frost said, and he got a nod from Roach.

Roach went to check on the rabbit person, and he would be lying if he said she didn't look half bad. As he went down to check on her, he gasped when her eyes shot open.

Frost went over to the man, and checked his pulse; it was weak, but still there. His injuries didn't look too good. Frost thought about ending the guys misery, but he knew that he could probably provide valuable intel. He got out of his thoughts when he heard a gasp, and turned around.

Roach fell to the ground, and he had knife in his shoulder. The girl got up slowly, and she held a sword.

"Shit." Frost said.

She said something in her own language, which he couldn't understand, and then rushed him. Frost barely had time to hold his weapon up like a shield, and the sword hit it. She was momentarily stunned, but Frost then head butted her. She got dazed, and Frost punched her in the face, and she fell. Before he could aim his weapon, she kicked it out of his hands, and then tackled him. This caused the both of them to roll around the ground for a moment, and Frost pushed her off of him.

The girl recovered, and was about to attack, but she saw a small canister like thing at her feet. She didn't have time to react, due to Frost's Flashbang exploded. She cried out in agony, and Frost, who had turned around, covered his ears and closed his eyes so he wouldn't get hurt, rushed and shoulder checked her. She slammed into the wall, and groaned. She was about to get up, but she saw Frost was in front of her, and aimed his pistol at her.

The girl knew she was beat, and didn't try anything. Frost was tempted to shoot her, but when she looked at him, he was taken by her teal like eyes. They looked like the eyes of someone had seen battle, but also she looked scared. And he had to admit she was beautiful as well. But, he couldn't shoot her, even though she was waiting for him to finish her off.

Frost made the decision, and pistol whipped her. Her head went to the side, which indicated that she was unconscious.

"Hey Frost, Roach, what's- what the hell?!"

Frost turned around to see Grinch and Soap had arrived at the alley.

"Get Kurokawa or any other nearby medic. Roach has been stabbed, and the enemy soldier needs medical attention as well." Frost said.

Grinch called for a medic, while Soap laid Roach on his back, and check his stab wound.

"Roach, are you okay?"

Roach groaned in misery, and said," I was fucking jinxed Johnny."

Frost holstered his pistol, and picked up the unconscious woman bridal style. As he walked out of the alley, while also making room for the medics, he looked down at the girl, who looked peaceful. As he was walking, he could hear the comms going off.

"All stations, this is Bravo Actual, the enemy staging area and the gate is secured." Captain Price said. "Be advised, not sure if any more of the enemy attack force will come through again. Request immediate reinforcements for security, and possible counter attack."

'Copy Bravo, reinforcements are on their way. Be advised, mop op operations are underway. All hostiles are to be eliminated or captured. And any civilians still in the area need assistance or be identified. Out.' Kate said.

'Just what the hell have we gotten ourselves into?' Frost thought.

If only he knew what lied ahead for him and everyone else. Especially for him and the rabbit girl in his arms.
