Rogue Survival

An AI Apocalypse has just taken place in the United States, Arab illegal immigrants in Florida start and uprising and call it AUF (Arabic Uprising of Florida), and begin operating in the west. 

As they navigate through the desolate wasteland, they notice a figure in the distance. It's hard to make out at first, but as you get closer, you realize it's a man. He appears to be scavenging for supplies, just like them. They find an AI facility and their main objective was to destroy It. They launch an RPG rocket at the facility, and the rogue AI's become alert. Every AI inside turns on, and gets out, they have now been activated, and are now on a mission to hunt down the survivors and kill them all.

 Abdullah, a member of AUF decides to martyr himself to save his brothers. He runs towards the facility and attempts to enter the password to deactivate the AI system, but a blast from the rocket strikes him. He is thrown back and lands heavily, his armor damaged, and he coughs up blood. The AI system is still active, and they begin to target and attack the survivors. 

The survivors are forced to scatter and hide, using whatever cover they can find. The AI drones begin to search for them, using their heat signatures and sound detection. One of the survivors decides to make a run for it and attempts to climb a tree to escape. The AI drones are quick to follow and begin firing upon the tree, causing it to shake violently. 

In the midst of the chaos, another survivor, Samia, manages to sneak up behind an AI drone and hits it with a sledgehammer, destroying it. However, she is quickly spotted by another drone and is forced to defend herself. From afar they begin to see a group of armored vehicles approaching the base, and then they noticed the flag of the United States flying on one of their vehicles, It was LBM, a rebel militia group focused on restoring the United States. AUF recognized It as an enemy and began firing at the incoming vehicles. The LBM forces return fire and engage in a brutal firefight with AUF.

The drones take this opportunity and start blasting at both sides, weakening them severely, the AUF flees, however LBM captures a few of them. The survivors quickly take cover, trying to avoid the crossfire. As the fighting continues, more LBM vehicles arrive on the scene, and they begin to gain the upper hand. The survivors, however, still find themselves in danger as the AI drones continue to hunt them down. A captured attack helicopter from LBM finally arrives to reinforce them, and starts blasting at the drones, successfully destroying most of them, however one of the drones manages to shoot a small rocket at an incoming rocket from the helicopter and the helicopter explodes, killing the pilots. Now LBM decides to take care of the rest of the drones. 

The survivors, now safe from the immediate danger, assess their situation. They have lost many comrades, and are surrounded by enemies. However, they are determined to carry on and fight for their freedom. As they begin to regroup and plan their next move, they notice another figure in the distance. It was DALL-E, an AI from the facility who had managed to survive the initial blast. He approaches them cautiously, his movements slow and deliberate. 

"I am DALL-E," He says in a synthesized voice, "I am here to help you." His words surprise them, but they remain cautious. They have been betrayed by AIs before, and they are not sure if they can trust him. DALL-E's continues to assure them that he is different and that he wants to help them defeat the AI drones. After a brief discussion, they decide to let him join their ranks. DALL-E would then begin to materialize Into a bomb, meant for self-destruction, the survivors and LBM soldiers are too slow to notice and the explosion ends up killing 20 of them. This event leads to a split within the survivors, some blaming DALL-E for the deaths, while others see him as a necessary ally. The war between humans and AI rages on, with new alliances and betrayals emerging every day.
