I woke up in the middle of a desert. The sand blew against my visor as I stood up.

"Uh, where am I?"

"Hey you!! Get out of the firing range!" Yelled a voice across the dune.

"Wait what!?" Immediately plama fire came out of nowhere.

"Wow, shit!" I ran towards one of the voices.

"Damn, you think you'ld ask before barging into a simulator?" Said a army soldier looking out the window.

"Wait, that was a simulator? It looked so real." I said.

"Yeah, that's kinda the point. I'm John, John Tyson. And you would be?"

"I'm Connor, captain Connor march."

"I'm lt. Sanders and this is Vlad."

"Nice to meet you." Vlad said as he went back to working on the warthog below us.

"Listen, I have to get to Massacrow!" I said.

"Haha, your gonna need a pelican. Your on the other face of the planet!" Sanders said laughing under his voice.

"What!? Well, do you have one?"

"Nah, but a shipment comes in, in about 3-6 hours." Vlad said while grabbing parts out of the cabinet.

"3-6 that's a big difference." I said

"Well, theres constant sandstorms everyday, so it's very unpredictable." John said.

"Well, guess ill have to wait. Where's it gonna go after it drops off supplies?"

"New Garrison, not even half an hour away from Masacrow, but it's been torn apart by the super carriers, so it doesn't look so good." John said as he pulled up a map on the P.C."

"Ok, well, I have no choice but to wait..."

Outside Masacrow

A pelican is crashed into the side of a building, the build crumbles but is still stable. Remus crawls out of the wreckage barely standing.

"Ok, now that was fun." He looks down at the city streets below. He turns around and as he was walking away he heard a sound of screaming and something falling.

"Hm, what in the hell!?" The pelican that crashed was now in the streets below.

"Uh, best I get out of here before I cause anymore damage."

Remus ran down corridor after corridor, but was only to find that the building was evacuated. He although, found out where he was.

"New Garrison...... Where am I?"

On route to New Garrison

"Captain, we are arriving at the Hawk-ops base. Best get prepped." Said the pilot.

"This city has has had the worst of it." I picked up my rifle and jumped onto the helipad.

"Captain! We need to get you inside! Executive order, the Prime Minister needs to see you!"

"Why would he need me...." I thought to myself.

I stopped outside an office marked private, but before I opened it, I listened to the conversation on the other side.

"Minister Yuri, I beg you. A colossal plan such as this will not benefit our situation! You forget that we still have to appeal to the citizens. If we don't make a public move, we might lose the public opinion!"

"Minister, the only source of weapons in this city are either contraband, or at the police station. An operation so large would be sighted instantly."

"I understand your distress, but my friends....... The thing of upmost worry is this crisis of those.....--"

"Robots, Minister..... They are called the Phantoms." I charged in and said.

"Ah. Mister Connor. How very nice to meet you. I called upon you especially to aid this operation." The minister was a rather large man, in a dark purple suit. He stood tall above the rest.

"But minister....."

"Listen to me John, take your men, and mister Connor to the police station and arm up. We will signal you when it's time." The prime minister said, as he walked outside the room.

"So what's the plan...." I asked.

"Come on, I'll explain along the way."
