[Sector three// AKA: New York city // operation: The hammer of god // Delta 1// Sargent Jacob.s]

I awoke to the sound of gunfire, and explosions from the distance, and looked around the transport and saw my team gearing up. I sighed, and picked up my Rifle, and placed my helmet onto my head. My hud lit up showing my life signals, and mission updates. I looked over to my squad, and stood up. "Alright boys listen up, today we take back New York city, and take out any rebels that remain in the city. I also just got updates from command saying that the rebels have stolen a huge amount of weapons, and supplies from outpost four. So watch your asses, they have better firepower now, and they might be a challenge. We are to dismount from the convoy, and move through the city, and punch straight into the defenses around the city hall. Once we take the city hall, we are to contact command, and dig in." I said. I looked around my team, and noticed that they looked down. And I knew why. I sighed, and continued. "I know we're still not over the rookies death, but we need to stay focused. John knew what he was doing, and if he didn't do what he did, then we all be dead. So lets honor his memory, and kill every one of these fucking rebels, and end this damn war!" I shouted. All of Delta team rose from their seats, and raised their weapons. "FOR JOHN!"

"FOR JOHN!"

I smiled under my helmet, and put a fresh magazine into my rifle. Soon, a large explosion erupted, and the transport was flipped onto it's side. I landed hard against the armored wall, but quickly recovered, and went for the doors. I looked back to my squad, and motioned them to move. "Lets move it people!" I shouted, and kicked open the door. As soon as I did, bullets zipped by, and explosions sent rubble flying. I quickly made my way out of the transport, and dashed for the nearest cover. Soon my team made their way to me, and we regrouped. I peeked out of my cover, and scanned the roof with my hud. I spotted a team of A-T rebels firing rockets down at the streets, and destroyed a armored truck. "Rick, Jack, I want you to suppress the RPG fuckers on the roof at the south east, and Tim, Eddy, I want you to move up the street, and assist Echo 2!" They all answered with "Yes sir!" and jumped right into their objectives. I moved along the edge of the street and fired up at the roofs killing several rebels, but soon I was cut off by rapid gunfire from my left. I ducked into cover and peeked over the edge of my cover. I saw a small nest of rebels firing a 50. Cal from a destroyed building. 'Fuck, how am I going to kill those fuckers!?' I looked over to Rick and jack, and a plan formed in my head. "Rick, Jack, there's a rebel 50. Cal nest on the south end of the street. Put some fire on them while I move to the south east to flank them.!" I yelled over the radio.

*Roger that!*

Soon Rick and Jack moved to a firing position, and begun to put some suppressive fire on the nest. The 50. Cal soon turned his attention to Rick and Jack, and I made my move. I jumped over destroyed cars, and torn apart bodies, and jumped up onto a destroyed armored truck. I pulled out a grenade, and threw it into the nest. The 50.cal stopped firing, and the sound of gunfire was replaced with yelling, and screaming. Soon the entire nest was engulfed in fire, and screaming rebels came crawling out, covered in fire, and begging to be shot. Rick and Jack granted that wish as they let loose a storm of led into the group of suffering rebels. Once they were all dead, Rick and Jack looked over to me, and gave a thumbs up. I was about to say something, but I was cut off by more intense gunfire, and rockets flying by my head. Rick and Jack tried to make their way to me, but failed a they were pushed back by rapid gunfire. I looked down the street, and saw a large armored rebel tank. Soon the rebel tank aimed it's cannon at me, and time seemed to slow down. "Fuck me."

*BOOM*

I was flung off of the armored truck, straight through a window and landed on my side. I quickly recovered, and picked up my rifle. "This is Sargent Jacob of Delta 1, we have been ambushed by multiple hostiles, and I have been separated from my squad! Requesting reinforcements at sector three, how copy!?" I yelled into the radio.

*Negative Delta 1, the rebels have blocked off the main highway that leads to sector three.*

"Damn it! Fine, we wont be able to fight off all of the rebels, so we need an evac, How copy!?"

*Good copy Delta 1, regroup with your squad and place green smoke on your position. Command out.*

I gave a large sigh, and looked out the window I came through. The streets were covered with dead bodies of both Rebels, and marines. Bullets were flying every where, and I could hear several explosions, and screams of pain. I looked up at the roofs to see three Rebels with RPG's, and stolen military rifles firing down onto what's left of the convoy. I aimed down my sights and fired three shots. They made contact, and flew straight through their skulls as red mist sprayed out of the back of their heads. Soon my hud in my helmet started to glow red, and my radar showed four red dots approaching me from behind. As soon as I spun around, four Rebels crashed through the door. I fired four and killing three of the Rebels, but one lived and he charged at me with a knife. I smirked, dodged his attack, and grabbed his arm. I quickly snapped his arm, and put the barrel of my rifle against his back, and emptied the rest of my magazine into him. Blood sprayed onto the walls, and he fell dead onto the ground.

*Jacob, do you read!?*

"Roger that Jack, I read ya loud and clear. What is your position!?"

*Me and the rest of the squad regrouped, and are at the city hall!*

"Roger that, I'll move to your position. Jacob out!" I yelled over the radio. I then reloaded my rifle, and ran through the door the destroyed door. I ended up in a small allyway, and sprinted down it. Once I reached the end of the allway, and turned left to see a Rebel android. I quickly dashed across the street, and nearly got hit by the androids gunfire. I entered another allyway, but the android followed. I sprinted down the ally, dodging bullets, and rockets. The android smashed it's way through the ally, and continued to fire it's weapons. I soon reached the end of the ally, and sprinted down the street. I looked behind me and saw nothing, but in a split second, the android smashed through the ally, and aimed it's weapons. But before it could fire, a giant explosion engulfed the right side of the android. The android crashed to the ground missing it's entire right side. I looked up, and saw a U.S fighter hovering over me.

"Thanks for the assist hornet three."

*No problem Delta.*

I continued through the city, and soon made my way to the city hall. I looked over the battlefield on a roof, and saw my team in the city hall. I jumped down, and landed on a car. I sprinted through the field, dodging bullets, and moving to cover to cover. I soon reached the city hall, and dived behind cover. I got to my feet, and looked at Jackson. "What's our status?"

"The rebels have taken over the entire sector, and are now closing on our position."

"Damn, we'll have to come back for this place. But for now, we get out of here alive."

"But how?" Tom said.

"Command has a evac ship in the air, and is awaiting our signal. Vick, do you have anymore green flares?"

"Yeah, it's our last one."

"Well then use it, and get ready for evac." I said. We all checked our ammo, and Vick lit the flare. I looked out the window, and saw a wave of rebels charging towards the city hall. "Get ready!" I yelled. I aimed down my sights, took a deep breathe, and fired. Soon bullets were flying both ways, and the rebels started to drop like fly's. The rebels were closing in fast, but before they got to close, they were engulfed in a massive explosion of rockets, and torn apart by chain gun fire. Soon, a dropship flew over us, and landed. "MOVE!" I roared to my team. We all jumped out of our covers and sprinted to the drop ship, but before we could get on it, a RPG hit it's right engine. The drop ship raised into the sky, only to be hit with more RPG's. The drop ship spiraled out of control, and crashed in a ball of fire. I was sent flying back into a small crater, and landed hard onto my back. My vision was blurry, and my hud was going crazy. I slowly crawled out of the crater, and saw pure hell. The entire battlefield was covered in fire, and bodies. The air was filled with pitch black smoke, and the glow of bright fires where only thing you could see through them. My team was laying motionless on the ground, and a horde of rebels came storming out of the smoke roaring. I grabbed my rifle, and fired single shots, killing one rebel at a time, but no matter how many rebels I killed, I stood no chance. Soon a rebel, tackled me to the ground. I elbowed him in the stomach, and flipped around. I pulled out my knife, and plunged it into his throat. Blood sprayed onto my helmet, and blinded my vision. I pushed the rebel off, and cleared the blood from my hud. As soon as I turned around, all I saw was the end of a rebels boot slamming into my helmet. I was flung back onto a large hunk of metal, and saw blood spray into the air. I looked down, and saw a large, twisted peace of metal coming out of the right side of my chest. I felt something come up my throat, and soon spat out blood into my helmet. I gasped for air, and began to feel dizzy. I looked up and saw the rebel slowly walking up to me with a large rock in his hands. I pulled out my pistol, and fired a burst round into his chest. The rebel dropped the massive rock, and fell dead. Soon more rebels began to charge out of the smoke roaring. I aimed my shaking hand, and fired more burst shots killing several rebels, but soon heard a sound no soldier wants to hear in a time like this.

*Click*
*Click*

I gave a heavy sigh, and let my arm go limp. I smirked under my blood filled helmet, and chuckled as a blinking red text saying 'self destruct system activated!' appeared onto my hud. "Lets go for a ride."

Soon everything went dark, and all my pain disappeared into the dark.

[Twilights house]

Twilight yawned, and slammed a book closed. Twilight has been studying non stop for a full week on the strange activities that the humans have been doing through out the past month. Celestia has asked Twilight to do this, for she herself was most curious about this. Spike soon walked into the room with a cup of warm tea for Twilight. "Here ya go Twilight, I thought this might make you feel a little more better." Spike said handing her the cup of tea. Twilight smiled, and levitated the tea into her hands.

"Thanks Spike." She said, and took a sip of the tea. Spike walked over to her, and looked at the table covered in notes, and data.

"How's it coming?" He asked. Twilight sighed, and leaned back in her chair.

"I don't know spike, I just don't know. I've never seen humans do these type of things." She said, and picked up a notepad. "I mean, look at this. A human in Canterlot was seen building a strange statue made out of wood. Then a pony in Ponyville reported their human mumbling in Equestrian about a 'New dawn shall soon arrive.' And finally, a human was killed after attacking anypony in sight at the Crystal Empire." She said, and shivered at the last one. "Eight ponies were injured, and ten were killed." Spike then to shivered, and looked at the notepad.

"This is so weird." He said.

"I know." Soon there was a loud bang from the basement. Twilight groaned, and got out of her seat. "He's supposed to be asleep for a full night." She was about to open the basement door, but stopped when she heard screaming from both the basement, and from outside. She quickly ran to the window, and saw that there was a strange light in the air flying over Ponyville at great speed. She then looked out onto the street, and saw several humans screaming into the air. Soon Twilight spotted Pinkie, Rarity, and the rest of her friends run up to her house, and rush through the front door.

"Twi, what the hay is going on?" Applejack asked.

"I have no idea." She said.

"Well, what ever is happing, these humans are completely going insane." Rarity said.

"Yeah, and did you see that light in the sky, it was going as fast of me." Rainbow Dash said.

"Even my animals are going a bit crazy." Fluttershy said.

"And I have to get up early to plan a PARTY!" Pinkie shouted.

Soon Twilight heard something that sparked up her brain.

"NEW DAWN SHALL SOON ARRIVE!" Twilight looked back at the light in the sky.

"What is it Twi?" Applejack asked. Twilight soon looked back at her friends.

"I think the new dawn has arrived."
