Human : Chapter 17

I arrived at the hangar as I made my way towards the command room where I could see Nitro "Ah good you're here I've got a mission for you if you're ready." Nitro said "Yeah I'm ready." I replied "Good a recon team reported to us with information about a large Federation mining facility just east of Alice Springs in Australia, I want you to go there and put a stop to their little mining operation." Nitro said "Alright." I said "The transport will take you to the outskirts of Alice Springs not far from the Federation mining facility." Nitro said "Right." I said as I left the command room and walked up to the crate of ammunition and refilled my low supply of ammo I then made my way towards the transport the back door of the transport opened and I boarded the transport and sat down "Take me to Alice Springs in Australia." I said "Understood." the pilot said as the back door of the transport closed and the transport took off and soared out of the hangar before heading towards Australia.

The transport arrived in Australia and as it landed the back door of the transport opened and I stepped off the back door of the transport then closed I then activated my communicator "Nitro this is Josh, I've landed and I'm ready to begin my mission." I said "Alright Josh, just head east of Alice Springs and you should eventually reach the Federation mining facility." Nitro said "Understood, I report back when I'm done." I said as I deactivated my communicator and began moving east.

As I walked through the area I began to feel the ground shaking "Whoa, what the shit?" I thought as I continued moving just then I looked and could see Brian as well as several Ghosts just then they rushed towards me and attacked me, I turned around and ran from them when suddenly I heard what sounded like growling coming from behind me I slowly turned around and as I did I saw a Hybrid standing behind me it looked almost Human it had two normal arms but it also had four other arms protruding out of it's back these arms had blades on the ends of them instead of hands and it's head had multiple eyes the Hybrid screeched at me before it got down on it's hands and charged at me I quickly jumped out of the way as the Hybrid crawled past me I then extended my blade and ran towards the Hybrid the Hybrid stood up and swung it's arms at me I dodged the Hybrid's attacks before I plunged my blade into it's chest the Hybrid screeched in agony before it collapsed to the ground dead, I retracted my blade before I looked around and noticed a strange pipe nearby the strange pipe was protruding out of the ground the strange pipe was large and it was green I stood there staring at the strange pipe before I walked up to it I inspected the strange pipe there was definitely something weird about this strange pipe and I was determined to find out what I looked inside of the strange pipe it was large enough to fit me inside of it I then climbed on top of the strange pipe before I jumped inside of it and began falling through the strange pipe I didn't know where this strange pipe led but I would find out soon enough after awhile I eventually reached the end of the strange pipe and as I approached the end of the strange pipe I quickly reached out and grabbed the edge of the strange pipe before I lifted myself out of the strange pipe I then looked around and was shocked with what I saw instead of being in some underground area like I was expecting I was now somewhere else entirely I looked around and could see that I was outside I could also see that the strange pipe I was in was protruding out of the ground instead of protruding out of a ceiling like I was expecting I looked around and could see grassy fields, large mountains and a blue sky there were also giant mushrooms everywhere the giant mushrooms had white stems and red caps with white dots on them I then noticed that there were weird creatures in this strange place the weird creatures had short bodies and short limbs and they had mushrooms on top of their heads the mushrooms on top of their heads had white caps with red dots on them "What the fuck." I said, I then noticed a large building in the distance I looked at the large building and I could see that it was a castle the castle was built from white stone and it had a red roof with several tall points with red flags on them there was a tall tower protruding out of the center of the castle roof the castle was surrounded by a moat filled with water and there was a white stone bridge leading to the front door of the castle and on the front of the castle just above the front door of the castle was a large stained glass window the picture in the large stained glass window showed a woman with white skin and long blonde hair she was wearing a pink dress that had a blue jewel on it's chest she had white gloves that went past her elbows she had big round earrings that were blue and she had a gold crown with red and blue jewels on it on her head I looked around at my surroundings I was shocked at what I was seeing I then shook my head before I released my grip on the edge of the strange pipe and began falling through the strange pipe again and once I reached the other side of the strange pipe I quickly grabbed the edge of the strange pipe before I pulled myself out of the strange pipe I looked around and could see that I was back in Australia I climbed out of the strange pipe before I tried to make sense of what I just saw I had no explanation for what I saw I then shook my head before I resumed my mission.

I walked through the area and eventually I arrived at a huge pit I looked around the huge pit I noticed a large tower with a colossal earth excavator on top of it in the center of the pit there was a long corridor that connected the large tower to the edge of the pit I began moving around the edge of the pit towards the long corridor, when I arrived at the long corridor that connected to the tower I could see two soldiers guarding a door with a keycard reader next to it I raised my assault rifle and shot the two soldiers before walking up to the door and sliding my keycard through the reader the door opened and I stepped inside, I stepped inside the long corridor and noticed a large metal beam it looked like the large metal beam was supporting the long corridor there was a door at the end of the long corridor I began moving towards the door but just then an Angel appeared the Angel had gold eyes and a halo on it's head it had two long spears on it's arms just then the Angel attacked me I ran to the other side of the long corridor as the Angel attacked me and once I reached the door at the end of the long corridor I opened the door and stepped through I then looked back and could see the Angel getting closer I then looked at the large metal beam before I switched to my rocket launcher and fired at the large metal beam my rocket collided with the large metal beam and as soon as it did so the large metal beam was destroyed and within moments the entire corridor collapsed I watched as the corridor fell and the Angel fell with it I then saw the corridor crash on the ground below and the Angel disappeared I then turned around began moving through the Federation mining facility.

I walked through the Federation mining facility until I came upon a cargo lift but as I approached the cargo lift an alarm began to ring "Oh boy here we go again." I said as several Federation soldiers emerged from different doorways and surrounded me and as they did so I put my assault rifle away and quickly activated my Cloaking Device and within moments I disappeared from sight the soldiers glanced around the area in confusion before I moved towards one of them and extended my blade before plunging it through his chest and as he dropped to the floor the other soldiers began to panic "What the fuck!" one of the soldiers shouted before I sliced through him, the other soldiers then began firing sporadically in all directions I did my best to avoid their blind fire as I cut down the remaining soldiers and once they were all dead I retracted my blade and deactivated my Cloaking Device just then I heard more soldiers approaching I pulled out my assault rifle as they entered the area I then noticed that these soldiers were different their armour looked lighter and they carried submachine guns I wasted no time firing at them but as I did they scattered around the room I managed to kill one of the light armoured soldier but just then one of the light armoured soldiers fired a Grapple Hook at me the hook attached itself to my suit the light armoured soldier then used his Grapple Hook to launch himself towards me I quickly extended my blade and cut the light armoured soldier's Grapple Hook the cable from the light armoured soldier's Grapple Hook was cut and the hook detached itself from my suit before it fell to the floor I then plunged my blade into the light armoured soldier as he reached me I retracted my blade before I switched to my plasma caster and began firing my plasma caster rapidly fired plasma my plasma caster killed the light armoured soldiers quickly as I fired my plasma caster at the light armoured soldiers I realized that my plasma caster had unlimited ammo I continued firing my plasma caster at the light armoured soldiers and once they were all dead I looked at my plasma caster "Thanks for this Skitter." I said before I switched to my assault rifle, I then looked down at one of the dead light armoured soldier I looked at the submachine gun that he was carrying before I reached down and picked it up "This is mine now." I said as I added the submachine gun to my inventory, I then turned to face towards the cargo lift and stepping onto it I looked at the panel and saw words written next to each button on the panel "Command room, Quarters, Entrance, Fuel storage." the words read "Fuel storage, I bet I can cause some serious damage there." I said as I pressed the button suddenly I looked up and could see Belial standing just outside of the cargo lift just then he rushed towards me and attacked me but before he could reach me the cargo lift doors closed and the cargo lift descended, the lift descended until it arrived at the fuel storage the doors opened and I looked around I could see a large room with countless fuel barrels in it "Oh come on, you're just asking for it." I said as I pulled out a grenade before I stopped for a moment and thought back to the supply train "I definitely don't want to be in this room when it blows up." I thought I then noticed another door with a keycard reader next to it I walked up to the door and slid my keycard through the reader and as I stepped through the door I found myself outside on a metal walkway, I turned around and was about to pull the pin on my grenade but suddenly a Demon appeared the Demon had red eyes and horns on it's head it had two long whips on each on it's arms the Demon then swung one of it's whips at me I ducked to avoid it's attack before I ran up to the Demon and grabbed it the Demon struggled to free itself from my grip but I managed to throw the Demon into the fuel storage the Demon fell to the floor of the fuel storage before it quickly stood up and ran towards me I then pulled the pin on my grenade and threw it into the fuel storage before using my keycard to close the door I held up my middle finger as the door closed just as the Demon was about to run through it once the door closed I could hear the Demon pounding on the door I then ran to the end of the metal walkway putting as much distance between me and the fuel storage as I could just then a massive explosion erupted from the fuel storage I looked I could see that the Demon had disappeared and the metal outside of the now destroyed fuel storage starting to break apart I then could feel the entire tower begin to tilt "Oh fuck!" I said as I turned away from the tower and prepared to jump off of the metal walkway but just then I looked over and could see Linda standing just a few inches away from me just then she rushed towards me and attacked me, I quickly jumped over the safety rails as I could hear sounds of metal grinding and cables snapping I used my Thruster Pack to safely descend to the ground and as I landed I looked back and could see the tower beginning to topple I sprinted away from the tower before the whole thing collapsed with a loud crash and a huge cloud of dust.

As the dust settled I looked at the now collapsed Federation mining facility and saw the destruction I had caused I was about to activate my communicator when I felt the ground begin to shake again but this time it was much more violent "What is that?" I said as I activated my communicator "Nitro it's Josh, mission accomplished the Federation mining operation has been shut down." I said "Good work Josh, come on back to the Resistance base and I'll have something new for you." Nitro said "Alright, I'm on my..." I said but before I could finish my sentence the ground shook one final time before a massive Robot emerged out of the ground, the Robot's body was long and narrow it had a single red eye on it's head it coiled itself up before facing me "Fucking shit!" I yelled "What is it, what's happening?" Nitro asked "A giant Robot just shot out of the ground!" I said "It must be one of the Federations Robots, you're going to have to find a way to destroy it." Nitro said "With pleasure." I replied before deactivating my communicator and running towards the giant Robot.

I ran towards the Robot as it burrowed back into the ground I stopped for a moment before I could feel the ground shake again the Robot then shot out of the ground only a few meters away from me "Shit!" I said as I switched to my rocket launcher and fired at the Robot several of my rockets hit the Robot as it soared through the air before landing and burrowing underground again, before long the Robot reemerged from the ground and lengthened it's body to stand upright the Robot then fired a massive laser beam at me "Son of a bitch!" I said as I jumped out of the way just barely dodging the laser I fired a few more rockets before the Robot burrowed again, the Robot emerged from the ground again but this time it was quite a distance from me the Robot planted it's head about halfway into the ground before charging straight towards me I used my Thruster Pack to avoid it's movements firing at it whenever I could before it burrowed again the Robot then reemerged from the ground near me before coiling it's body around me giving me very little room to move it then lowered it's head to face me before it started charging it's laser again just then I noticed several fuel tanks on the inside of the Robot's body the fuel tanks were built within the Robot's body and covered by the metal plates on the outside of it's body which made seeing them difficult and I could only imagine how difficult it would be to hit them while the Robot was moving but the Robot wasn't moving which meant that this was my chance to destroy it I quickly switched to my sniper rifle and aimed at one of the fuel tanks I pulled the trigger and the gun went off and with only a single shot one of the fuel tanks exploded but the Robot was still charging it's laser I then quickly shot every fuel tank on the Robot and as each of them exploded the Robot became more damaged eventually I shot the last fuel tank and once it exploded the Robot stopped charging it's laser it them began to slowly fall to the ground before collapsing "Fucking shit." I said as I reloaded my sniper rifle before switching to my assault rifle I took a breath before I used my Thruster Pack to jump over the Robot's body and back out into the open as I activated my communicator "Nitro it's Josh, we have one less Federation Robot to worry about." I said "You destroyed that thing, well done Josh come on back to the Resistance base and I'll have something new for you." Nitro said "Alright, I'm on my way back." I said as I changed to the correct channel on my communicator to call the pilot "Pilot this is Josh, I need a lift." I said "Roger that Josh, I'm coming to you." the pilot said "Understood." I said as I deactivated my communicator, the transport flew over me before landing the back door of the transport opened and I stepped aboard the transport and sat down "Take me back to the Resistance base." I said "Sure thing Josh." the pilot replied as the back door of the transport closed I then looked and could see De'vorah standing in front of me "I'm going to have so much fun with you once you die." De'vorah said as she rushed towards me and attacked me, I jumped out of the way to avoid her before I looked and could see that De'vorah was no longer there I then took a deep breath as the transport took off and headed back towards Scotland.
