The characters and the plots belong to their respective owners. I therefore own nothing, minus the names of my OCs. However, I do own the OC of Ava Grady as well as the DEFCON Year Universe books, which you can find on Amazon through typing "Defcon Year Ryan"

BTW : I sign this fanfic to the brave defenders of Ukraine. Glory to Ukraine, glory to heroes.

AN: Due to this year being 2024, I can tell you only one thing for November 2024: VOTE BLUE, VOTE BIDEN FOR PRESIDENT

A few months after repelling the Russians from Ukraine, Ava and her squad were now involved in the invasion of Iran, where they fought alongside the Iranian Resistance. But after a hard landing on the Iranian beaches, the Allied amphibious troops managed to link up with troops coming from Azerbaijan and Turkey, which enabled everyone to quickly advance towards Tehran before the Allies would get to attacking their next objective.

However, for now, Ava and her squad were involved in street fighting in Tehran while Norrie Vastano and the others were supported by Resistance armor and infantry to help them with advancing through the maze of streets in the capital city of Iran. Suddenly, Ava saw a group of IRGC soldiers and fired her M27 at them, killing two of them while the rest of the USMC squad took out the other IRGC troops. As Ava and the rest of her squad took to the narrow streets of Tehran before meeting civilians whom they took to safety.

As Ava and her men, as well as the American Marines and their other Allies, including US Army troops, kept advancing through the streets of Tehran, they came across a cellar, which Ava smoked with a M83 grenade to force the IRGC troops out, only to shoot the latter dead thanks to the IRGC having executed many POWs and civilians. Ava then took aim with her M27 and killed another IRGC Sepah soldier before many other troops shot the enemies dead. Ava then realized she and the others were arriving at the Presidential palace of Iran. As Iranian resistance soldiers and US Marines arrived into the garden, gunfire erupted, prompting US Army and USMC M10 Bookers as well as US Army M1A2 and M1A3 Abrams tanks to arrive alongside mechanized forces and shoot smoke cannisters to conceal friendly troops.

As soon as the smoke screen appeared, Ava, her squad and the other Allied light troops rushed towards another wall while heavy troops provided covering fire before the Iranian Resistance soldiers rushed to the door and stacked at the walls while the Allied troops, including Ava, were now stacked behind a wall to provide sniper fire as Resistance fighters, alongside Norrie Vastano and the rest of her company, breached the palace before beginning to kill every IRGC troop they met on their way to capture Ali Khameini, the dictator of Iran who was on President Joe Biden's wanted list.

Ava then heard more gunshots before seeing the victors hoisting the National Council of Resistance of Iran flag and the Stars and Stripes at the same time and mimicking the famous Joe Rosenthal photograph featuring US Marines hoisting the American flag on Mount Suribachi in 1945. This meant the Iranian Resistance, strenghthened by opposition coming from Iran itself, was now in control of Iran. Ava smirked upon realizing the Axis had one less member to its list.

Several months after helping the Iranian Resistance to take power in Tehran, Ava and the rest of the 6th US Marine Division were now involved in the invasion of Russia to help the Russian Resistance remove Putin and his inner circle from power and instal a genuinely democratic government in Moscow while several other units managed to conquer North Korea, Burma and large parts of China as well as invade the Eastern and Western parts of Russia, only stopping because of the mud and weather conditions. But Ava was now involved in the battle of Moscow, which opposed Allied forces to the Russian national guard and FSB troops, since most of the Russian military had been either killed or taken prisoner by Allied troops. Needless to say, the Allied had to kill every Rossgvardia and FSB troops to put an end to the fight.

While Ava was leading her troops in the streets of Moscow, they saw many beacons had been installed by special operations troops to guide the conventional forces through the maze of buildings and streets. Suddenly, Ava saw many Russian Resistance fighters hoisting their white-blue-white flag on the top of the Kremlin while dragging a dead Putin and his equally dead family away from the building while yelling "Sloboda Rossyia". The Americans saw the Russian Resistance troops displaying destroyed Russian military hardware on the Red Square while Ava and her squad went towards said square, where they saw the Saint Basil Church now covered by white-blue-white flags with a small American flag hoisted on top.

Ava knew the last stage of the war, Central Asia and China would be targeted by the Allied forces, since this was the necessary step to end World War III once and for all. World War III started in Ukraine and Africa, it would now end there. It would end with the upcoming invasion of Central Asia and China as well as Eritrea. This was the price of peace over the world. However, Ava also knew that pope Francis had appealed to the Allied leaders to give up and raise the white flag, which enraged President Biden, who had promised to win World War III. And this irritation ironically enabled him to get reelected thanks to the American people's anger over images of Russian soldiers and cops attacking the US Embassy in Moscow before torturing and r ping everyone before using the captured employees for shooting and bayonet practice, as they did with images Chinese forces doing the same in Beijing.

And it would be because of this that the Allies would win World War III, thus ignoring the pope's pleas for peace.
