Human
Chapter 22
Meltdown
The transport arrived back in Scotland as it flew towards the Resistance base the transport flew into the hangar and landed the back door of the transport opened and I picked up Cydaea before stepping off of the transport the back door of the transport then closed as I carried Cydaea through the Resistance base suddenly several Resistance fighters approached me and took Cydaea before carrying her away I then saw Nitro approaching me "You're back great work rescuing Cydaea don't worry we'll make sure she's alright, in the mean time I have another mission for ya." Nitro said "Let's hear it." I said "We've intercepted a Federation transmission from Manticore apparently she is at the Federation Robot production plant in Sulogalia, I want you to go there and destroy the Federation Robot production plant and kill Manticore" Nitro said "Another Federation leader alright." I said as I turned around and walked up to the crate of ammunition and refilled my ammo I then made my way towards the transport the back door of the transport opened and I stepped aboard the transport and sat down "Take me to Sulogalia" I asked "Sure thing Josh." the pilot said as the back door of the transport closed and the transport took off and soared out of the hangar before making it's way towards Sulogalia.
The transport arrived in Sulogalia I looked out the window and could see a Federation facility in the distance the transport then flew down towards the ground before landing the back door of the transport opened and I stepped off of the transport the back door of the transport then closed I then activated my communicator "Nitro this is Josh, I've landed and I can see a Federation facility in the distance." I said "That must be where Manticore is, get over there destroy the Federation Robot production plant and kill Manticore." Nitro said "Understood." I said as I deactivated my communicator and began moving towards the Federation facility.
I ran towards the Federation facility I stopped for a moment to catch my breath as I looked ahead and could see that I was getting closer to the Federation facility just then I was struck by an explosion from behind I flew forward from the force of the blast before I landed hard on the ground I then slowly rose to my feet "What the fuck was that!" I said as I looked around just then I saw a flash of light in the distance followed by something coming towards me quickly I dodged the incoming object which soared past me before exploding on a nearby tree causing the tree to fall I then looked ahead and watched as a Hybrid approaching me, the Hybrid looked almost Human but it's hands were replaced with weapons it's right hand had an assault rifle attached to it and it's left hand had a power drill on it and on the Hybrid's left shoulder was a rocket launcher the Hybrid's body looked like it was covered in brown armour, the Hybrid snarled at me before raising it's assault rifle and firing at me the bullets struck my suit which didn't hurt but definitely didn't tickle either I raised my assault rifle and fired at the Hybrid after a few shots the Hybrid raised it's left arm as it's drill began to spin the Hybrid then lunged at me I extended my blade and evaded the Hybrid's attack before slicing my blade across the Hybrid's torso cutting it in two the severed body parts then fell to the ground "These Hybrids are getting annoying." I said as I retracted my blade just then I saw several Ghosts surrounding me just then they rushed towards me and attacked me, I ran away from them as I continued moving towards the Federation facility.
I kept moving towards the Federation facility until I arrived at the Federation Robot production plant I noticed a door that led into the building the door had a keycard reader next to it I approached the door and slid my keycard into the reader the door opened and I put my keycard away but just then I looked ahead and saw Belial standing in the doorway "You are walking towards your death." Belial said as he rushed towards me and attacked me, I quickly ran from him as I entered the building, I walked through the first corridor until I reached another door I opened it and found myself inside a massive production plant there were conveyor belts and mechanical arms everywhere I could see Robots in various stages of construction being transported around the building I could also see several Robots inside charging stations the Robots in the charging stations were medium sized they each had a single red eye on their heads that had two legs and two arms they had mechanical hands attached to each arm that looked like they had a small gun inside of them, I continued moving through the building when suddenly I looked ahead and could see Stahl standing in front of me just then he rushed towards me and attacked me, I avoided his attack and just then an alarm began to ring and I gripped my assault rifle "Here we go." I said as several Robot turrets emerged from the ceiling and began firing at me I quickly destroyed the Robot turrets with minimal effort but then I looked behind me and saw a Demon the Demon had red eyes and horns on it's head was tall and it had four arms each of it's hands had sharp claws on them it's head was long it had sharp teeth in it's mouth the Demon lunged at me to attack but I managed to avoid it I then extended my blade and sliced through the Demon cutting it's body in half the Demon then collapsed to the floor before disappearing I then looked around and saw every charging station in the room open and every Robot that was in the charging stations walked out of the charging stations before they ran towards me I gunned down the Robots as they came towards me some Robots fired lasers while other simply charged at me they were coming at me in droves and I struggled to keep them at a safe distance "Okay fuck this." I said as I put away my assault rifle before I extended my blade and began carving my way through the swarm of Robots, I sliced through the Robots as lasers and pieces of metal flew everywhere I cut down every Robot I could see until eventually there were none left I looked around the room as I breathed heavily and once I saw that there were no more threats I retracted my blade and pulled out my assault rifle before reloading it just then I heard a noise coming from above I looked up and could see several large metal pods hanging from the ceiling and one of them was moving suddenly the metal pod opened and a large Robot fell to the floor and landed on it's feet this Robot looked similar to the other Robots I just faced but this one was much larger it had a single red eye on it's head it had a large gun on it's right arm and it's left arm had some sort of device on it just then the Robot raised it's left arm and I watched as the device unfolded into a massive shield the Robot them began to fire a laser beam out of it's gun "Fucking shit it's always something!" I said as I did my best to avoid the incoming laser, I fired at the Robot but it raised it's shield to protect itself I watched as my bullets bounced harmlessly off of it's shield "Come on that's hardly fair." I said as I dove behind cover, I peeked my head out as the Robot scanned the room "A Robot that big has to have a fuel tank just like the other big Robots I've fought." I thought just then the Robot turned it's back to me and I could see a fuel tank located on the back of the Robot's shield "Gotcha." I thought as I emerged from cover and fired into the fuel tank and after a few shots the tank exploded and the Robot collapsed to the floor "Scratch one Robot." I said as I reloaded my assault rifle before looking ahead and seeing Linda standing in the middle of the room staring at me just then she rushed towards me and attacked me, I ran away from her before noticing another door with a keycard reader next to it I walked up to the door slid my keycard into the reader and stepped into the next room.
