Date: 2/20/24

Time: 3:44 PM

Location: Creation city Cat district

In the cat district a group can be seen running through the crowd maneuvering around others to try and not collide with others who might get angry within this group consisted of John Cortez, Master sloth, Ayupan, and Bloody Bunny they were currently making their way to the train after a holographic meeting with BL or known as Gunner Cooper Briggs the captain of the Vanguard Squad a special Ops unit and the commander of the SRS know you might be wondering what happened so let's go back a few hours.

[3 to 4 hours ago]

Bloody Bunny: so, let get this straight, you guys have getting you're ass kicked for several weeks and your just know finding me?

Holo BL: At the time you weren't in our data bases let known heard of on harmony, in fact earth was brought after we had completed a base assault mission given to us.

John: In his words, we never heard of you until now in fact your history is really hard to wrap our heads around.

Bloody Bunny: Oh, yeah that makes sense.

Ayupan: And if you include that fact that she has been with me this whole time makes it a little harder to believe.

Master Sloth: I agree you would have to do some serious digging in order to find her.

Holo BL: You are indeed correct we had reconnected ourselves to earth government data banks and when I saw your history I almost had a system shut down about.

???: Yeah, you did BL don't overload yourself!

Holo BL: Almost thank you, anyway, can tell what we should look out for as we have never seen these 'Dark Bosses' at all.

BB: Okay, so to get an understanding the Dark Bosses are essentially the highest-ranking members of Doll Works they, usually call the shots, but they take orders from the CEO, but no one knows who they are or has seen them at all.

Holo BL: 'Them'? As in no one as has ever seen their face at all?

BB: Yes, no one has ever seen their face.

Holo BL: that just makes this mission harder for us if we can't take out the leader.

BB: So, what can you tell me about the IMC?

Holo BL: The IMC are essentially a massive industrial conglomerate; they deploy their fleet to distant human colony worlds to exploit rich resources because of this many have lost their freedom and homes to the IMC's reign sparking a civil war between the people who formed the Frontier Militia and the IMC for years on end.

John: And during this war more factions have appeared as time went on their earth has become damaged over the years forcing them to full their forces but not all of them and with back up to glory like before, because of this they have sent in more units at use thinking it will work.

Ayupan: So, they capitalize on other colonies for their own gain, correct?

Holo BL: In short term yes, we're-

Before BL could continue the alarms in the command ship went off, blaring that a threat had been detected causing John and BL to taken off guard.

Holo BL: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?!?

Militia crew member: Sir enemy Titanfall has been detected.

Holo BL: You have got to be kidding me they must've planned for this, John notify your squad to meet at the evac site.

John: On it, (On radio) *All units this John our have been changed head to the evac site given copy? *

Radio: (static silence)

John: *this john our orders have been changed do you guys read me over? *

Radio: (static silence)

John: Sir, I think they took out my squad.

Holo BL: damn it.

Master Sloth: I guess change of plans, yes?

Holo BL: Correct, head to these coordinates we'll send some shuttles to come pick you up.

John: coordinates received, will see you when we get there sir.

Holo BL: will do stay safe. *Hologram turns off*

As the Hologram turned off the group was left to themselves, meaning they'll have to get to the location on their own.

BB: So, what's the plan?

John: I would say we hide in the crowd, but they probably know what you look like and since titans are not only strong but-

Master Sloth: incredibly fast?

John: yup, with that we may have to take different routes to get to where were going any ideas?

BB: Ayupan's tour bus?

John: Might be too slow the titans could use their weapons to tear it apart in seconds, hmm maybe a taxi...oh...wait no.

Master Sloth: It could work but when the enemy comes, we might have to take the car ourselves.

Ayupan: what about the train?

John: the train?

As he says this, he pulls out his holo map to see the location of the evat site, as he does this, he notices a railroad that leads to it.

Ayupan: Yeah, see, (Points to a station that two to three miles away from the site) Creation City has a bullet train that goes nearly all over the country of the US and if we take it, we'll cut some of the time to get there.

BB: that could work.

John: You're right, but how are we going to travel the rest of the distance to the site?

Master Sloth: Should I suggest a taxi?

BB: that should work for the rest.

John: then let's get- (Outside explosion followed by heavy rumbling)

BB: Guess they're dropping early.

Ayupan: yeah, lets move.

With a game plan made the group made their way to the door that john and master sloth came in bringing them back the alley that they had met.

*Current time Now*

With all of this commotion the group struggled to stay together but managed to do so regardless as they were heading the train station, they had a few run ins with some IMC titans forcing them to take detours thankfully they made it with no one lost.

John (tired): shit we made it.

Master Sloth: Yes, however you look worse for wear.

Ayupan: yeah, are you alright?

John: Yeah, just it's been a while since I high tailed it from an enemy titan.

BB: That's good to know but let's get aboard the train is about to depart.

As she said they got in the third middle car of the train and waited for departure as they did john had notified on the situation to say the least, he was surprised but understood what was happening down on the ground and as he looked outside, he saw they were departing from the city and headed into a tunnel underneath the city however as it enter Bloody Bunny could've sworn she heard an object land on top of the train but she couldn't think much of it at the moment on the outside however it was not an object but a black figure wearing a mask who couldn't be identified.

*Three to four hours later*

Now leaving the tunnel that took the train underneath the city has now reached the country side as it went along the group had to plan what taxi to take to the site their first option was an uber but they wouldn't even make as the driver would more than likely turn around before they reach their destination, their second option was better but more dangerous a company called Crazy Taxi despite their violations for traffic laws and amount the property damage they caused in a single they make a lot of money and earn amazing ratings keeping them in business so the group went with them, but as they we're planning they heard a thump on top of train now they would've shrugged it off as nothing but you can't help but notice that they are in the countryside and there was a lack of bridges meaning that if a person jumped on they did before the tunnel.

Ayupan: that might be bad.

John: (pulls out two pistols and aims at the roof) Whoever is on top might be with the IMC.

Master Sloth: (goes back-to-back with John) I agree, if they wanted to come, they would've done at the station.

BB: (Pulls out the sword of light) Proceed with caution?

Everyone: (Nods)

As the group moves forward, they heard the thumping sound again moving away from the middle of the train car to the side they proceed to the front of the train car into the next but as they did a sword came through the roof of the car nearly hitting John in the process.

John: Holy- *bang* *bang* *bang* *bang*

Master sloth: are you alright?

John: barely mother fucker went for my head.

BB: that is familiar (turns to master sloth) you don't think...

Master sloth: I don't know for all we know it could be a clone.

Intercom: 'All passengers please note we are approaching the station please remember your luggage on the train please'.

As the train came to a stop the group noticed first hand of the station, as soldiers and dolls littered the floor, the soldiers in question were Frontier soldiers meaning BL had planned to have a squad meet them but Doll Works came in at the same time for the train, so with this sight the only answer they had was a firefight broke out and neither side came out on top.

John: (walks up to one of the bodies to the tags) Dave conical Sean third rank private....

BB: oh god...

Ayupan and master sloth: ...

John: (Pulls hat over his head while place his gun on top of him) you were good son real good maybe even the best.

As john had finished his soldier honoring, he got up and walked outside with the group following in suit as they got outside, they heard an engine nearing.

As they took guard the cargo door revealed the BL inside with the rest of the vanguard squad inside as it fully opened BL walked up to John.

BL: You alright?

John: Barely Nearly had my head taken from when a sword punched through the roof of train.

BL: Go ahead and get aboard.

John: Sir?

BL: Yes, John? 

John: why did you tell us to meet at evat site, yet you came here?

BL: simple the IMC would've been listening on us so we might as well throw them off our trail. 

John: I see now well let's get out of here. 

But before they could ninja star came flying at John's head but was caught by Bloody Bunny analyzing the item she recognized who it was in front in all of his glory was dark rabbit clapping his hands with a smug look on his face.

(art owned by: JEMBER)

BB: Dark Rabbit.

DR: Ah Bloody Bunny, are you happy to see me because I am.

Bloody bunny: Why should be I happy to see after what you've done. 

Dark Rabbit: ouch now that just hurts.  

John: Cap?

BL: Get abroad we'll cover you for takeoff.

John: copy. 

As he said this Dark rabbit made a move towards them but in the process, BL got in the way of dark rabbit blocking his path with his shield, but before he could attack the titan, he heard a shot fired at him and dodged the bullet effectively he turns to one of the buildings next to them and saw what looked to be a sniper. 

 They jumped off the building and onto BL's hull climbing into him.

DR: So, your BL's pilot Angelical Lastimosa, correct?

Angelical: Why does it matter to you?

DR: wanted to know who you are before I take you out.

Angelical: BL?

BL: on it.

As BL said he and the rest of the squad moved in on Dark Rabbit The first being WS:6584 explosives expert had moved to the side take shots at dark rabbit while he was dodging them he to deflect a shell coming from JN: 9849's plasma railgun, as he prepared to attack he was interrupted by UZ:1893 firing her splitter rifle at him with a laser shot, evading her attempts to stop and heading behind a building caused UZ to cease fire.

UZ: OH, COME ON!

As Dark Rabbit heard her frustrations, he felt another presence with him waiting, for the right moment he jumped onto the wall and on the roof dodging a sneak attack from SL:0000 but he noticed it was a hologram and dodged the real SL's sneak attack.

SL: My trap card/ stolen from us/ a new opportunity awaits.

DR: at least you caught me off guard.

As he says this he jumps down and ducks down to evade a punch from CP:4141 who seemed to be beat boxing during the fight taking the opening he jumps on top of CP and back into the parking lot.

CP: (annoyed) wub...wub

As he jumped back he was met with BL again with BT:7275 next to him waiting for him as both opened fire on his location only to deflect the bullets in different directions away from what he didn't know was BR sneaking up preparing to use power shot on him but before he could dark rabbit had jumped out of the way of his power shot when it finished charging as he did dark rabbit came up with a plan and he knew how to start scanning his surroundings he saw WS reloading his gun as well as JN immediately he threw two ninja stars at them to get their attention and just as he thought it did taking his opening he jumped on WS's hull brought a powerful slash that knocked him back.

WS: okay dude that hit did some damage, but I still fight!

BL: WS, JN give him some missiles.

WS: on it firing salvo core bro.

JN: flight core activated.

Just as dark rabbit planned WS and JN used their cores to open fire and as they dark rabbit jumped onto JN hull causing the missiles following him as he jumped he created a clone that climbed onto WS's hull as JN activated her flight core she had sent a barrage of missiles at him only for her noticed that dark rabbit was on her hull this not only distracted her but caused her to divert her attention away from WS and just like JN WS was dealing with the same problem however before he get him off his hull the missiles the JN fired had hit causing him to fire his salvo core without realizing the tracking system was still locked on dark rabbit and as he fired the fleet of missiles he fired went towards JN as dark rabbit created a clone before jumping off and as he did JN had received heavy damage from WS's missile fleet causing her to crash on the ground the same with WS being forced on one knee after his left leg was slashed damaging him then noticed CP throw a gas canister at him only to miss waiting he saw CP throw his second canister only to catch it mid throw and lodge it into CP battery slot blowing up when he scraped his sword on his hull they're were now five titans left looking for his next target he went for SL.

SL: you just activated my trap card/ time to go to work.

DR: That's what you think.

As both got into a standoff position, they immediately drew their swords with SL sending an arc wave at Dark rabbit who jump onto the wall of the building before jumping off it and drew his sword sending a slash attack at SL at speeds that he could barely react sending him into a building as he did this dark rabbit drew a smoke bomb putting the rest on edge.

BL: Circle formation!

As BL said this the last standing titans got shoulder to shoulder scanning their surroundings for dark rabbit unknown to them dark rabbit was on UZ's hull and immediately slashed her splitter rifle in half retaliating she attempted to punch dark rabbit only to miss and instead was sent flying near the aircraft the arrived on near the other damaged titans in the squad.

BR: Let's see if you can outsmart these bullets.

As BR finished his sentence he fired his smart core sending waves of bullets at dark rabbit however he wanted as he created three clones causing the bullets split into different paths chasing after him BR was confused until he realized dark rabbit was using the smart core to have the bullets follow him and crash into his hull but before he could do anything dark rabbit and his clones had already brought the bullets to him severely damaging.

BR: Проклятый ублюдок.

As this happened BT ran over to help him leaving BL to fight Dark Rabbit.

Angelical: Shit were losing (Over radio) *Alen how we doing? *

Alen: *Rendy for takeoff. *

Angelical: Good, BL cover fire.

BL: on it.

As he said this, he opened fire on dark rabbit forcing to deflect the bullets from him.

DR: shouldn't we have learned this by now I mean- argh!

As dark rabbit fell to the ground it was revealed that BL had use energy syphon on him to paralyze dark rabbit with this, they ran to their squad aircraft that was now taking off as they just made in time for departure.

BL: shit that was a nightmare.

UZ: you said it cap.

BR: da.

WS: but at least we got out of there.

SL: suspicion level.... high result: Uncomfortable stop hugging me CP.

CP: Sorry It's just my dubstep combo got ruined when he attacked me.

BT: don't worry I'll help you with it.

CP: really?

BT: really.

CP: thanks

Angelical: hmm.

BL: you alright pilot- angelical?

Angelical: No, I feel as if he let us do that.

BB: what do you mean?

Angelical: He was so focused on that he started talking almost as if-

Before she could finish her sentence, the alarms went off signaling that something was on the hull.

Alen: 'Warning this is not an enemy is on the hull I repeat an enemy is on the hull. '

Before anything could be done the aircraft shook heavily.

Crewmate: we lost engine 2!

The aircraft shook, meaning that they had lost another engine.

Crewmate 2: we just lost engine 3!

Outside dark rabbit had complete his work he wanted to go inside but he had to stick to the orders he was given at least he was able to see Bloody Bunny.

Copilot: were losing altitude!

BL: shit!

BT: oh no!

BR: fuck!

UZ: damn it!

SL: what the hell!

CP: crap!

WS & JN: (holding each other)

Alen: 'brace for impact'

Before anyone knew it, they crashed into the ground plowing through anything the plane's path be slowly coming to a halt, however they were being watch as higher up in the sky a plane could or what looked to be a plane was circling the crash site.

???: 'command come in.'

Command: 'command speaking go ahead*

???: 'Our VIP allies have just crash landed should we change plans? '

Command: 'Yes stay near the crash site we'll head to you and get in contact with their faction so that way a fire fight won't break out'

???: 'understood over and out.'

As the unknown circled the site the group was slowly waking back up with titans coming back online the first being BL. 

BL: Shit... is anyone alright? 

WS: I'm good. 

BR: in one piece. 

CP: still beat boxing. 

SL: I'm fine but my sword needs repairs.

UZ: same and need a new splitter rifle. 

BT: I'm still combat functional.

JN: Two of my jets are gone but I'm alright.

Master Sloth: still in one piece.

Ayupan: I'm okay but where's john.

John: (Opens crate) I hopped in here to take cover but I'm fine. 

BB: I a little light but I'm fine.

Alen: 'scans indicate the following: slight blood loss, sprained left ankle, sprained right arm, slight loss of hearing, and dizziness.' 

As Alen finish his analyzes of bloody bunny, she was quite annoyed on how it was put out like that Angelical came out of BL to comfort her.

BB: he could've made sting a little less.  

Angelical: don't worry Bloody Bunny you'll make a fast recovery as soon as we're out of here I'm going to train to use a Titan. 

BB: a titan my very own? 

Angelical: yup, it'll how its own custom ai. 

BL: But first we got to get out of here IIMC is nearing our location as we speak. 

Angelical: right did you call Briggs? 

BL: I notified her, she would kick my ass if I didn't. 

Angelical: alright let's- (dodges bullet) 

BT: or let's just get to the point. 

BT grab his xo16 chain off of his back and went next to BL ready to engage the enemy as he did angelical jumped up to BL where he caught here in midair before putting her in his cock pit. 

Angelical: Alen is it ready yet? 

Alen: 'slightly I have connected to the command ship Jackson, but my transport system was damaged in the crash. ' 

BL: crap. 

Ayupan: what's transport system do? 

Alen: 'It allow me to teleport units and civilians to larger vessels that have more holding capacity. ' 

Ayupan: oh, that's cool but what's wrong with it? 

Alen: 'I can only transport two titans at time while my crew had ejected. '

Angelical: transport the most damaged to least damaged Alen. 

 Alen: 'understood link complete, activating transport now. '

As Alen said this the cargo doors were ripped open, and Immediately BL and BT opened fire as they did this Alen had chosen his first two units with BR & JN. 

Alen: 'BR & JN please get ready for transport. ' 

BR: I'll see on the other side comrades. 

JN: you guys better make it back. 

BL: we will. 

BT: Yeah, we always do. 

JN: you better. 

As she finished both her and BR were warped up to the Jackson in their following hangers, as this happened BT had thrown an enemy tone his shoulder while launching a barrage missile into the cockpit destroying the titan, meanwhile had forced the cockpit legion open hold up for angelical to climb aboard pushing the IMC pilot back in his sit as BL slammed the cockpit hatch on them turning them into paste while angelical climb on the titan pulling out their battery before jumping into BL's cockpit as he kicked it down to the ground. 

Alen: 'UZ & WS please get ready for transport. '

UZ: I hate using this system. 

WS: Well, you did give him the idea of it so that's on you dudette.

UZ: Since when? 

WS: Easy, since- 

Before WS could answer they were warped to the Jackson for repairs as this was going on BT had used his burst core killing two titans in go, all the while BL was giving him cover via his shield and helping him with focus fire on specific titans.  

Alen: ' SL & CP be ready for transport. ' 

SL: time to go big guy. 

CP: It was fun while it lasted 

SL: at least we got fight a dark boss. 

CP: yeah, that happen do you think we'll-

Just like WS he wasn't able to finish what he was saying at they were warped up to the titan hangers on the Jackson leaving two titans left as Alen was getting ready to warp the rest of everyone his hull was suddenly tipped over causing everyone inside to slide across the floor but in the process, he accidentally warped everyone except BL, angelical, Bloody Bunny and John. 

John: that's not good. 

Angelical: yeah, take cover. 

BB: that would be easier said than done. 

John: hang on I got you. 

John ran over to BB and picked her putting her on his back running out of the cargo bay he search the battlefield for anything that could be used as cover to hide behind luckily, he saw destroyed tone chassis nearby, so he made a beeline for to hide bloody bunny as he did, she got worried, and he could feel off of her. 

John: hey, don't worry I've been through worse in my life on the Militia I'll be fine. 

Closing the hatch, enough to she couldn't be seen but she could still see she watched as john took cover sneaking his way back to the shuttle but as he did, he was tackled to the ground, turning around he saw it was dark rabbit again, but he seemed pissed. 

(Art also owned by JEMBER)

DR: where is she? 

John: what? where is who? 

DR: I'll repeat myself.

DR:(leans in closer) Where. Is. Bloody Bunny?

John: why should I tell you? 

DR:... (grabs his sword and knocks John out) 

In the destroyed titan Bloody Bunny watched as dark rabbit knocked john out while looking for her as she was watching BL and angelical attempted one more try against dark rabbit who jump on BL, and climbed up his chassis in the process BL tried to stop him but before he could Dark rabbit sild down BL's back before stooping halfway and stabbed his sword into his battery ports not only did this overload BL's systems it had caused him to nearly shutdown while angelical was trying to reboot his systems dark rabbit had forced his sword through BL's hatch stabbing her square in the abdomen heavily injuring her in the process, pulling his sword out he watched as BL tried to use his acolyte pods only for dark rabbit slash at BL's hull landing him on his back, as this happened Bloody Bunny  head started to hurt as it did dark rabbit left with John's knocked out body but as she was passing out she could hear something talking to her. 

???: hey are you hey, stay with us, were coming to get hang on. 

But as they said this, she passed out falling out of the cockpit, voice in question came into view but the figure didn't seem to be human but humanoid their body consisted of metal like BL, and they seemed to be roughly the same size of him, but to Bloody Bunny the voice seemed female. 

???:  'Command...we got a problem. ' 

To be continued....

Next up: The Airfield
