Chapter 23: It Is Time

As the people heard John's monologue, Vincent smiled then patted him.

No One's POV

As the group came out in John's room then headed to the roof and saw an intense battle, they saw smoke erupted in every direction, the helicopters erupted in the sky to deliver the troops in the battlefield, many soldiers are now going to their respective positions.

"Delta 0-1, Delta 0-1, come in Delta 0-1".

John put his index on his headset then replied, "This is Delta 0-1 over". Vincent saw a missile that targeting one of the helicopters that were on the sky as the MH-6 Little Bird 2 was going to fly, it was caught by a projectile. They went inside going to the command room for orders from the higher-ups, luckily they saw Lt. Raven that was walking towards us, he looks so troubled I asked " Lt. Raven was it the mission?" He saw many officers and soldiers are swarming across the hallway, they decided to enter the vacant room. As they entered the room Raven started to give them orders " Alright here's the plan, our intel has seen SAM sites on the forest about 15km northwest of here, while the north, northeast, and eastern cities have been under attack by the enemy infantry", John and Vincent looked at each other while reloading their pistol. "John take your brother to take those SAM sites on the eastern forest, you will take the 51st Infantry Regiment led by Lt. McCormick where they position at the eastern gate". The brothers nodded then Raven look at the group " The rest of you go to the southern gate to defend our supply line and also hold the enemy off at bay while the reinforcement will get here, dismissed", Lt. Raven ordered and left.

Vincent's POV

As I and my brother received the orders from Lt. Raven, the others left for their respective position leaving the two of us.

"So brother it's time eh?"

"Yeah, ever since Eron entered this world where he sealed the deal and now for us to fix for what it's left on him".

" I couldn't agree more"

"Alright, Get your gear we're moving," he said as he opened the door.

I grab my gear then all of a sudden the explosion occurred, we took a cover. Then we left towards the eastern gate, as we taking downstairs for our mission I saw through the window that reveals a bloody battlefield, many soldiers fought valiantly to keep the enemy off the bae, bullets swarming in every direction, explosions and more.

I snapped out of it then proceed to the ground level where John was waiting for me, he was armed with his favorite M4A1w/ Holographic. He tossed my favorite ACR w/ grenade launcher, I grab it then a soldier was pinned down as he was going to the frontline, I drag him to cover and check if he was dead or not. Luckily he has wounded in his left arm bullet just grazed him and saw the dog tag that he belonged to the 51st Infantry Regiment, "Private Benny?" I said, the soldier named Benny looks at me and asked "Who are you?" as he moans in pain, I shouted at the people to bring the medic, in the meantime the medic arrived on time.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

"Who are you, sir?" he asked again as he was placed on the stretcher, "Vincent D Gutierrez, the brother of John McCain Kennedy who will take a down the SAMs in the eastern treeline". Benny nodded and replied, "Sir, you better get moving, I've delivered terrible news from you". John moves to my position because it is time to move when he saw me talking to the wounded soldier he listened to the news that Benny carried for.

" Our intel tells that there's an enemy reinforcement were heading to the SAM sites on the eastern direction to reinforce the defensive line to keep the bombardment to break our defense, I'm afraid that I can no longer deliver the message, please sir, you must warn my brothers to please sir". he pleaded as the medic left to patch him up, my brother tap my shoulder to catch my attention.

"Vincent, we need to go now!" He shouted I nodded then we entered the battlefield.

(Scene Change: Eastern Gate).

As the 51st Infantry Regiment taking cover as they waiting for us to commence the assault, we arrived as we heard gunfights all over the area.

"2nd Lt. Ajax?" My brother asked as we took cover beside him.

"I am, who are you?" A soldier named Ajax who lead the 51st Infantry Regiment, while someone mentions me into my earpiece.

"Glad to have you, Assassin" the voice of the second team leader, Jackson, came into his earpiece.

I snickered as I inspecting my ACR if it was jammed.

"What kind of opposition are we looking at?" asked Jackson.

"We have some artillery to clear out" Ajax handed Storm some Semtex.

"Alright, guys let's move". John announced after that, we left to complete our mission.

(Scene Change: Eastern Forest)

As I and the 51st Infantry Regiment along with my brother looking for the SAMs, through the forest. 5 hours ago we encountered small enemy resistance as we reach the forest about 1.5 miles away from our position.

As we looking for SAMs we heard big and very loud gunshots coming from the north side of our position, John hand signal us to stop, we aiming our rifles in every direction before the enemy manages to surprise us.

"Machine, Assassin, Bible, and Iron take point". As John barked orders to his team, I and my three men got up then proceed to our destination.

(Time Skip: 25 minutes later)

As we reached our position we saw around 5,000 men with 5 enemy armored vehicles, all of a sudden a voice coming to the radio.

" Shadow 5-6 this is Overlord, what's the sitrep over".

"Copy that Overlord, we saw the SAMs the keeping our birds from flying, request immediate air support over".

"Copy 5-6, I'm taking an unmarked gunship to your position stand by".

" Roger that, out".

As I received the air support I told my team to open fire for the enemy who mounted on the SAMs, we hurriedly screwed a suppressor onto our rifles, crouching to the grass making us invincible then we opened fire.

The enemy was confused as they saw their comrades fall to the ground one by one, so they scattered to search for us.

One by One as we killing the enemy who boarded the SAMs, finally taking the last one.

"Shadow 5-6, Vandal 4 on approach. Ready for tasking, what's your position".

" Vandal, this is 5-6, About damn you've shown up".

"Friendlies in the eastern treeline, taking fire from troops on the tree line, You are cleared hot!"

"Roger, weapons' away"

After that, the rest of the 51st showed up and start firing to the enemy, they stood no chance as we pinned them one by one leaving no survivors.

Then we heard a missile that was targeting the SAMs we left to the danger zone to take cover.

All of a sudden, a large explosion erupted in the area, where men screamed and the turrets were destroyed by the blast.

A few minutes later, we got up and go to the rendezvous point to pick us up.

"Shadow 5-6, A job well done, I've sent some choppers to pick you up for the next assignment, Overlord out."

Then we heard a loud explosion about 10 miles away from our position meaning that they took care of the enemy reinforcement.

"Shadow 5-6, this is Raptor 6, Heard you boys wanted to lift back to base".

" Sounds good, Raptor, Anywhere but here".

After that, we get on board and going back to the base.

(Scene Change: Unknown sky 1.5 km away from the base)

No One's POV

As the 51st were riding on the MH-6 Little Bird 2 we heard the announcement coming from our earpiece.

"All friendly calls signs- we are no longer on the defensive- I repeat consolidated and counterattack".

The men on board were shouting in joy that their efforts are not in vain, they turn the tide on their favor.

" Shadow 5-6, this is Overlord, we have some bad news".

"The Japanese were now under attack by the creatures coming from the portal in Naha, Japan".

As we heard the bad news all of us were getting frustrated as they knew that the 'creatures' have been entered into their homeworld.

" Shadow 5-6, this is Overlord actual. You are being en-routed for Hana".

"We got a principal level hostage rescue"

"Who is it?"

"The Emperor"

As John and Vincent look at each other knowing that the world has now in their hands, it is time to save their homeworld.

No matter what it takes.
