Adam
Metro-Gotham Sewers
​

When Brother Power spoke about not beat himself up and talking as if he were better than him, Adam really started to grow angry, memories of all the atrocities he had been forced to commit coming back to him, that mannequin knew absolutely nothing about him even though it was speaking to him to cheer up... Even though his face was concealed underneath his helmet now, he was giving probably one of the coldest glances he had ever given.

"I couldn't give two shits whether or not I run like some random person from god know's when, You have no fucking clue who I am or what I have been forced to do in my life. So don't go telling me not to go beating myself up when you know absolutely nothing, and suddenly expect me to be a cheery ball of optimism when I honestly contemplate every single moment when I wake up, contemplating whether finally putting a bullet in my head will finally do this world a god damn favor, by eliminating myself whose purpose in life became doing things so deplorable now being only simply a waste of oxygen for the rest of the people on this damn planet..." Adam snarled at Brother Power, with his words dripping with venom that could kill an elephant, showing a man absolutely bitter and broken. Before he did anything else, he would pull up his helmet only to simply take the longest sip yet of a bottle of more alcohol, wishing to drown out the absolutely terrible memories that constantly plagued him.

Caesar had succeeded in giving his first orders and won the trust of the scientists. He'd worried slightly when he was met with silence by the scientists at the mention of using humans as test subjects. Why everyone always felt uncomfortable when using humans to test was beyond him, what did they expect him to use? Rats? But he just kept a level head as he spoke to the female soldier "Thank you for the suggestion, Of course these soldiers and prisoners will need to be broken before they're allowed to participate in testing SMILE. That wouldn't happen to be any part of your expertise as a soldier would it?"
He'd since perfected making the fruit when working for Doflamingo however he didn't need any test subjects trying to turn on them when doing tests so breaking their spirits would be necessary at least in his opinion.

A Diamond Dog soldier sent to command ops in lieu of Miller, Ocelot, and Snake piped up.
"We have a type of goggles that identifies parasites. I could order the ones we have."
The other Diamond Dog soldiers in the room nodded in agreement.
"They could also identify symbiotes that infect people and are hiding."

Snake nodded, taking the Luger. He didn't think he would get to use it unless R&D could fit a suppressor/silencer on it.
"Thank you. I appreciate the gesture."
The man smiled and left. The Indian Air Force would then report a Diamond Dogs helicopter moving at very fast speeds, much faster than India's existing helos.
Snake then left the building, boarded the heli, and set off for New York. He needed to get back to Mother Base.

Jolie: Metro-Gotham ​

The young Vampire's eyes widened as Adam ranted, examining his body language just in case he did in fact go for his gun. She took a deep breath through her nose, more out of habit as no oxygen would actually go to her lungs. She did not miss having to breathe, but there were things she did miss. The cold, the taste of stew and being able to sit next to a warm fire without being afraid of catching fire herself.

She clenched her fists and released them as she walked up behind Adam. She had known him for, what...An hour or two? Less than that? It didn't matter, this was a man who needed help as she had a long time ago. When Adam mentioned the atrocities she committed, Jolie's mind went back to the war as she saw the faces of the men she had struck down. Most had been in self-defence or in defence of others, but then there was that boy.

Black hair, blue eyes. Still had a spot or two on his face. Couldn't have been older than eighteen.
He'd been sleeping when she'd set upon him, not feeding off of him, not shooting him to defend a friend but sticking his head underwater in a nearby river and holding it there until he stopped struggling. She told herself at the time that she recognised his face from the massacre at her farm and that he probably deserved it but...

That was a long time ago, and she was a changed woman. At least she hoped she was. She hoped her friend's sacrifice and the final years of his life he'd spent trying to help her hadn't been for nothing. The atrocities she'd committed, the lives she had taken throughout the years faded and were replaced by Venkman's smile...That damn smile.

Her eyes started to water with blood and she swiftly wiped it away as she walked up behind Adam, grabbed him by the shoulders and spun him around.

"You think you're the only one who's done fucked up shit?" She asked grimly "I lost track on the people I killed when it reached fifty."
She tightened her grip and looked down "According to a friend...It's somewhere...Somewhere in the sixties." She paused to take a breath, again doing it out of habit and looked back into Adam's eyes, blood now running down her face "I'm a literal monster driven by bloodlust who a few decades ago would be tearing the throats out of boys sent off of fight in a war none of them wanted!"

She wiped a tear away "See this merde (shit)? I don't have enough bodily fluids to produce tears so I just cry out the same shit I pump into my body. A decade or two ago this would be the blood of somebody I murdered, wasted so what? So I can act like a human for a minute? Act like something I'm not?"

"To this day...I still ask people to stake me when feeding off of a human in case...In case I lose control. I can't kill, not again." She shook her head, avoiding eye contact and let out a slight, pitiful laugh "Why the fuck am I telling you all this? Am I just some mad French monster shouting at a man in a sewer? Maybe..."

She stepped away from Adam "You're broken and suffering because the war's over and the only person you have left to fight is yourself. But you can come back from this...

You have to."

The soldier gave a firm nod in response "Most of the prisoners are nearly broken already, considering the interrogation methods. All they would need is a little extra push. I could grab one of them for you now."
Many of the scientists avoided eye-contact with her after the statement was made, simply carrying on with their work on the greenhouse and on making the ageing scrum.

"Although, we would only need prisoners for the first round of tests." One scientist cut in "After the method of creating these beast-men has been perfected, I'm sure there would be many loyal soldiers who would jump at the opportunity."
The soldier took one look at the scientist and then at Caesar, not saying anything but waiting for a response.

Ghandi waved Snake goodbye as the helicopter took off before walking back inside the building.

After making sure he was not followed the Lord of India walked down a corridor and made his way to a lift. After several scans, including two retina and one using his thumbprint a door opened, revealing a lift that he climbed inside.

He was taken back to the emergency command room he had stood in when the Flybots had attacked India and sat down on the throne.
"Observe Diamond Dogs communications. Ensure they focus on Vortex and that they don't have any agents still hiding here." Ghandi ordered "How goes the mission we gave to those mercs?"
"They're still en-route to Diamond City. They should arrive there within the next few hours." A cyborg answered
"Monitor chatter..."
"Sir, Vortex has sent a supply envoy to Diamond City. He claims he wants to help the citizens."
"Do we have any agents active in that area?"

The cyborg nodded in response "What shall I tell them?"

A grim smile appeared on Ghandi's face

The Wasteland: Diamond City​

As the supplies approached Diamond City, the convoy was immediately surrounded by Diamond City security. There were at least half a dozen men all armed with makeshift and pipe weaponry.
"Identify yourself." A man ordered

Preston Garvey's interactions with Vortex had been brief, for the convoy had been immediately set upon by Raiders who had seen the thing from miles away and wanted the loot it carried. A fight had ensued in which most, if not all of the Raiders had been killed but in the process however Preston and his small group of soldiers had lost sight of the convoy after getting separated.

In the hopes of re-establishing contact and to figure out what was going on, Preston had reported to home base to hear that a similar convoy had been spotted heading for Diamond City. Taking a group of a dozen troops in a Vertibird, Preston dropped down not too far from the location and started heading into position. While some of his men watched from a distance, five Minutemen wearing power armour followed behind Preston as he walked up to the city.

"Hold your fire!" Preston shouted "These machines helped me and my men fight off some Raiders the other day! They're friendly!"

Lord Kenobi
Mojave Wasteland near New Vegas - Fallout Universe

Thrax was disappointed at Vader as the Mandalorian was called deluded by the pretender, he was threaten by the Sith pretender and also rejecting his offer to join the Yoda's new order against Palpatine's order, Thrax's lightsaber was pushed away by Vader's force which caught Thrax's surprise. Thrax leaned closer and closer to Vader's head and he would began to speak.

"If Yoda's greatest Sith student, the Chosen One-.. Lord Vader was here, he would have sliced you into pieces!" Thrax laugh as he taunted this Vader. As Thrax attempted to grab his dual-wielding lightsaber using the Force, his enemy would form a repulse which caused Thrax to be thrown away near to the improvised lines. Thrax was attempting to get up. This caught Kenobi's attention when he saw the Sith pretender using a Force repulse which only Kenobi, Vader, and the infamous Sith Knight Galen Marek; who was wounded in the failed Imperial invasion of Alderaan, could use this powerful telekinetic technique. Kenobi would command his division to join on the line defenses who was recently captured by Kenobi's Sith Knights. Kenobi would eye the man with the black suit as he slashed Imperial stormtroopers and raiders on his way to the fight between the man with the black suit and his second-in-command.

The Sith knights however, would able to push back the deathclaws which they shift their attention to the line of defense. Vader's 501st Legion would retreat to the shuttle which gained the advantage of Kenobi's 501st Legion and his elite Sith knights. They would gain control in the line of defenses. The Conglomerate stormtroopers would use the E-Webs for attacking the retreating Imperial stormtroopers, raiders, and deathclaws, that includes the remaining AT-ST's. The remaining AT-ST's would hit the line of defenses which killed a Sith knight and tens of stormtroopers. The Sith knights would scatter around the battlefield and would form a circle to target the AT-ST's legs, they would hit it which caused one AT-ST to fall down. One Sith knight would open the cockpit and killed the pilot. They would target the next AT-ST, who they are now attempting to cut down another AT-ST's legs.

For the casualties in the Sith Conglomerate, 3 elite Sith Knights and hundred stormtroopers would have been perished in this very odd battlefield.

COMMANDER VORTEX
Main Base, Wasteland
​

Vortex growled as his Stalker's transmission cut out. Deceived. That bastard deceived him. Misled him with the wrong information. He knew they weren't contingency plans. He knew something was wrong the moment he saw that fucking smile on that bastard's face. A smug smile. He fucking hated that look. Growling, he took command of his Commander body and immediately released his anger on a platoon of idle Grunts, his Uber Cannon immediately annihilating them, the energy blasts ripping through his baseline infantry units like they were nothing. He knew he had just lost a number of units, but he didn't care. Grunts were meant to be completely expendable. They could be replaced in seconds. In fact, by the time Vortex had finished his little temper tantrum, a whole new platoon had walked off the assembly platform. When he was done, there was nothing left of the Grunts but smoldering craters and scorch marks in the metal floor.

Played him like a damn fiddle.

At this point, diplomacy with both the Indian Empire and the entire Southern Continent was now pretty much beyond the point of no return. The South he could understand, since they were all incredibly paranoid. He could strike Venkman off the list of possible allies. His Stalkers were withdrawn from the continent, self-destructing in order remove traces of the existence, though they transmitted bits of important information. That also included the datachip he'd given the mages, such that they couldn't reverse-engineer his tech. They would be left alone. But the Indian Empire? No. They had to be stopped. Since diplomacy was out of the question, and Gandhi had pretty much screwed him over, that pretty much meant that the Indian Empire and the Vortex Syndicate were pretty much now in a state of undeclared war. Well, a Cold War, more like.

He needed to be smart, make sure Gandhi couldn't screw him over anymore. With his vast network of satellites in orbit, he immediately connected to the global network, bypassing any and all security systems. In the Great Firewall incident, Vortex was barely even using five percent of his total processing power. Now, he amped it up to a full eighty percent, drilling holes through security walls and such. With this level of processing power, he could simply take over the Indian Empire's weapon systems and turn them on their owners.

But he couldn't, for that would pretty much make him a villain immediately.

Instead, he went for a more passive approach. He scanned the planet for any and all traces of the video footage of his battle with the giant, then immediately purged them all from existence with a negative chance of backups. All gone, from computers to smartphones to even cybernetic implants. He made very sure he deleted every one, even the ones buried deep under layers upon layers of security. Then, to avoid raising suspicions, he replaced them with files of his own, which were edited to fit the exact perimeters. He also altered the Firewall's programming such that it would completely ignore them, and any of his further intrusions.

Both times, he hadn't attacked a single time. The first was just a scouting mission, the second was an act of removing and replacing.

But now, he needed to build up his defences. He diverted his fabricators to building more and more defensive structures such as anti-nukes, turrets, and artillery cannons, not to mention more and more walls, along with tightening security and building more advanced units. Several T3 generators had been built, which were really just a trio of T1 generators welded to a T2 one. Despite their rather shabby design effort, they got the job done, producing the power of the both tiers.

His the first squads of his newest unit, the Thumper, stomped out of the T3 factories, which were also shabbily-designed, being essentially up-sized T2 factories. The Thumpers were walkers, classified as vehicles due to them being much larger than infantry and being able to withstand a hell lot more damage. They filled in an anti-infantry role, their twin gauss cannons able to spit out heavy-caliber rounds at more than a thousand rounds per minute. Those rounds could rip through infantry and light vehicles. Prototypes had fared well, reducing targets to scrap in seconds. They were also able to simply step on infantry due to their height of five and a half metres.

Now all he had to do was to mass produce them.

The drone was silent, not transmitting at all. Then all of a sudden, it sent out another message. "I CANNOT STAY FOR MUCH LONGER." It said. "MY TIME GROWS SHORT. BEFORE I GO, I GIVE YOU A WARNING: DO NOT TRUST GANDHI. HE LIES."

With that, the Firehawk self-destructed, melting into slag. That also meant that any and all parts that had been removed also self-destructed, some in the hands of engineers. Records of the drone's existence in Diamond Dog database were purged from existence. Any transcripts of the conversation were also subsequently deleted.

In the end, just seconds later, all that was left in the workshop was a pile of slag with untraceable and unrecognisable components.

Diamond City, Commonwealth Wasteland
​

"Correct," Vortex said from the lead Armadillo's external speakers. "Rest assured, I have no intentions for harm. My name is Commander Vortex. I'm the leader of a new faction located outside of the Commonwealth known as the Vortex Syndicate. My units have entered the Commonwealth in order to cleanse it of undesirables threatening the relative peace of this land, such as raiders and super mutants. I can provide security and shelter for the inhabitants of the Commonwealth, and given enough time, I can even rebuild this city from the ground up. But be advised: should any of my units come under attack, I will be forced to act in lethal self-defence." He paused for a second. "If that sounded a little too threatening or menacing, I apologise. I am rather... unused to conducting diplomacy."

One of his transport trucks rolled up. "I bring fresh supplies. Purified water, food untainted by radiation, equipment, and medical supplies are contained in my trucks. I carry with me enough supplies to feed this whole community."

He got his supplies straight from Skyrim. Peace talks were over surprising quickly, since the Jarls of Skyrim seemed to be incredibly keen to listen to whatever Sigmund had to say for whatever reason. Then again, he did save the world around five times. Once the Jarls agreed to form an alliance with the Commander, trading immediately went underway. Food and land for information, tech, and security. Vortex didn't need the food they offered; it was more for the people he wanted to help in the Wasteland. Land was what he needed, and he could now safely build his bases without raising suspicion.

The supplies he carried were stored in radiation-proof containers, making sure they would remain untouched by radiation and thus remain completely safe to eat.

Mother base was on high alert by the time Snake returned. What he learned wasn't good, but a job offer had come in.
"Talk to me"
Snake said to Miller
"We've received an offer from that wasteland that showed up. They want you to provide support in killing off the leader of a camp of raiders."
Snake eyed Miller with a confused glance
"The wasteland has these savages who prey on the weak and defenseless for arms, ammunition, and supplies."

"The drone?"

"Self-destructed. Whatever it is, it's beyond whatever Cipher or Emmerich could cook up.
However, we have reports it is operating in the wasteland."

"Anything else"

"It warned us about that Gandh-"

"I know, I don't trust him either. I trust Intel is working on it?"

"They are. Gandhi doesn't know anything yet."

Commonwealth Wasteland, Outside of Raider Camp close to Quincy
Snake
​

The chopper had landed not too far from the camp. Snake found it easy to infiltrate. However, he had disabled the Chopper's stealth tech on purpose. Anyone with a radar knew he was there. He just hoped to get some attention from the local factions.
The Raider leader was easy, Snake having restrained him in his own quarters.

"Talk. What do you know about robots moving in?"

"I-I dunno man! Some sort of safe zone! He's got a bunch of defenses and shit!"

"And?"

"Diamond City! He's at Diamond City!"

"Good."
Snake would then choke out the leader, knocking him out and using a wormhole to extract him. Getting out was easy, but now he needed to get to the City.

-------------
The city was well-fortified, but it was obvious that they were expecting an army, not a man. Snake got past the outer guards easy, keeping well away from Vortex's supply caravan. He watched Preston and the robot talking, and unslung his MOLOTOK sniper. The sniper had more power than a conventional rocket, able to kill any man with a single well-placed shot, and disable an APC with a decent shot.

He just had to hope he wasn't found.

Vortex's attempt to rid the world of the footage would appear to succeed, however he was interrupted as for just three minutes as he would lose consciousness as he hit a hard part of Ghandi's Great Firewall. When he came to, he was bombarded by millions of reports as he had lost connection to some of his units.​

With the units in the South and in Mother Base self-destructing, the only ones he had appeared to lose connection to were in the Wasteland and in Skyrim, in the far north. It wouldn't take him long to re-connect of course but when he did, and he was able to see through him once again he would see nothing but chaos.

-Three Minutes Ago: The Wasteland-
​

With the Mayor having been outed as a Synth, there was little to no political power for Vortex to negotiate with. Instead, the citizens of Diamond City all jumped at the opportunity of radiation-free food and water. The guards stood down, as did Preston's men as they handed it out to the citizens. Due to heavy fighting in other parts of the wasteland, Diamond City had more or less become a refugee camp of sorts due to it's high walls.

As they enjoyed more of the food, a child would wander up to one of Vortex's units and start to poke it gently. She giggled as she went to poke it again
"Threat detected." It said, deploying two guns and opening fire.

The crowd of refugees was too close together and started to panic. At least one person was killed in the stampede as they tried to flee from the machines, with dozens upon dozens of men, women and children being gunned down.
Preston reacted with shock at first, but snapped himself back to focus as he saw one unit going for a Ghoul child who was cowering in a corner. With a well-placed shot from his laser musket, he caught the machine's attention and with two more well-placed shots he was able to drop it.

He dashed towards the girl and picked her up, using his armour as a shield while the machines opened fire. The other Minutemen provided cover for the fleeing civilians, with them taking losses as well.

By the time Vortex would regain control, his units would be surrounded by dead bodies and would still be under fire from the Minutemen.

Other locations of the wasteland were hit, with a group of Vortex's units detecting the fighting between Lord Kenobi, Darth Vader and raiders. They started with ariel bombardment, with fighters deployed to try and protect his bombers from TIE fighter attacks. When he regained control, the battle was still raging on.

-Three Minutes Ago: Skyrim-​

A group of units had gathered outside Whiterun in order to defend it from dragon attacks. A guard, who was now armed with a more advanced sword courtesy of Vortex walked up to one as night started to fall.
"I hope we don't see any dragons tonight." He said, trying to strike up a casual conversation "I'd offer you some of the mead I keep stashed but I don't think you drink."

He gave the unit a friendly punch, injuring his hand in the process.
"Ah."
It lit up in response "Threat detected."
"Oh come now, I was only messing around." The guard said, raising his hands. When the unit started to open fire, the guard ran for cover but was quickly gunned down.

An alarm bell went off inside the city.

Spoiler: The Jaral

Balgruuf stood up from his throne as he could hear the sounds of gunfire and screaming coming from outside. Guards stood at the doors, armed with the swords and shields given to them by Vortex while one guard dashed over to the Jarl himself.
"We need to get you to safety." He said "The one called Vortex has turned against us."

They retreated outside, where more guards were waiting. The Jarl could hear the sounds of gunfire and screaming coming from inside Dragonsreach.

There was a pounding on the door as Vortex's hacked units tried to make their way towards the Jarl. Guards drew weapons, the court wizard Farengar started to prepare defence spells and the Balgruff himself drew a sword. He would stand with his men.
"Is my son safe?" He asked
"A few guards managed to sneak him out of the city."

He nodded in response and prepared for battle.

Before the Jarl and his men could be gunned down, Vortex would be able to regain control of his units. However, the city of Whiterun was in ruins. When regaining control over his other units he would find that every city had been hit.

Further in the reaches of Skyrim, near the college of Winterhold the units alongside Penny would open fire but Vortex would be able to regain control before they were able to kill her.

"My Lord, he's trying to hack the firewall." A cyborg shouted "It's a lot heavier than last time."
"You know the drill by now." Ghandi sighed "Deploy false files. Even if he's more cautious he'll..."
"No sir. He's targeting that drone footage." The cyborg replied "Not just in our firewall but across the globe."
"What?"
"The drone footage. He's trying to delete it from every single source on the planet, wipe it from existence. A few places have lost it completely already. Erased from back-ups."
"Did he get through the firewall?" Ghandi asked, clenching his fists and leaned forwards in his throne.
"No. He's getting damn close though."
"Let him through. Weaken our defences in the area he's currently attacking. Let him think he managed to hack us this time." Ghandi ordered

The cyborg did as he was told, and from Vortex's perspective it seemed as though he had broken through, made modifications and deleted the files in question from everywhere he could. There would be a lapse in concentration as Vortex hacked into a back-up server before things would continue as normal. That was until, after exiting the Indian servers he would pass out.

-PRESENT TIME-
​

Ghandi watched the carnage unfold on screens and was notified when Vortex woke up. He'd discovered AI nearly one hundred years ago in his own universe and knew how they ticked. He leaned back in his chair and smiled, waiting for a reaction from Vortex.

It had been a simple plan. Allow Vortex through the Great Firewall and then install virus after virus. With a century of experience with AI under his belt and thus under the belt of India, not even Vortex would detect the viruses until it was too late. They had isolated systems within the hive mind and then simply engaged a protocol or two, switching them from passive mode into attack mode. The targets had been random and due to only having a limited amount of time, Ghandi had to pick targets carefully. He had expected a fight would break out but...

"Acceptable losses." He muttered to himself "If Vortex wishes to erase data of his crimes then we must let the rest of the world know what kind of monster he is."
"My Lord." The Cyborg spoke "He didn't erase the data from everywhere.However, those satellites are going to be a problem."
"Do we have their location?" Ghandi asked
"Yes. Shall I launch..."
"You will do no such thing. Inform the mages in the South on their location and prepare that footage. Today is the day Vortex dies."

"So it's a yes then? Thank fuck for that because I thought I needed to use my hypnosis on you. Right, so one thing we need to do now...is that I need to bite your neck. Don't worry do these pearly whites look like they'll hurt?" He opened his mouth wide, his two rows of razor sharp white teeth listening in the night as he smirked. "Eh yoo down't." He cleared his throat and closed his mouth. "If you don't say yes, you are in fact....retarded! If you do, then fear not! I shall make it as painful as a row of razor sharp teeth penetrating your neck slowly, but surely, and then you'll like it. Hell, it may even turn you on, I don't know what you're into, you kinky little blood sucker. But that's not the only thing you suck now...is it?" Humming the end of his sentence, Alucard suddenly appeared behind the girl, his arms around her waist as he held her body close to his, his black hair falling over his face as he leaned towards his neck, smirking.

Shafaqat listens to him very carefully, seeing that his fangs come out much like those of vampires in her world. Different kind of turning though, which is interesting. It’s been a while since she’s been this scared, she realizes. Being scared for her life is normal, and frankly she’s used to it. But she’s never met anyone as purely intimidating as Alucard.

She sees him teleport, and is confused for a split second, till his arms wrap around her, and she freezes. She feels tiny and weak, a feeling she absolutely despises. She refuses to be the prey of another creature. But this… she might grow stronger like this. She might even have someone to help her, since Alucard seems to have locked onto her for some reason.

So she takes a deep breath, and lifts her chin slightly, exposing her throat, though she can feel her heart pounding, every instinct screaming at her to run. “I’m ready.” She whispers, determined not to show her fear. She’s still proud.

Thrax was disappointed at Vader as the Mandalorian was called deluded by the pretender, he was threaten by the Sith pretender and also rejecting his offer to join the Yoda's new order against Palpatine's order, Thrax's lightsaber was pushed away by Vader's force which caught Thrax's surprise.

The Sith knights would scatter around the battlefield and would form a circle to target the AT-ST's legs, they would hit it which caused one AT-ST to fall down. One Sith knight would open the cockpit and killed the pilot. They would target the next AT-ST, who they are now attempting to cut down another AT-ST's legs.

For the casualties in the Sith Conglomerate, 3 elite Sith Knights and hundred stormtroopers would have been perished in this very odd battlefield.

"I am Darth Vader!" Vader saod as he advances on Thrax until he notices his former mentor walking towards him, cutting down his men and the criminals. Vader sets his eyes on Obi-Wan and walks towards him. "You are foolish to attack me, old man." Vader said. Obi-Wan could sense something familiar of Vader. "This time, I will make sure you stay dead." He added as he gets closer, taking a defensive stance. Believing Obi-Wan taking his old defensive ways. He needed an opening.

By the time Vortex would regain control, his units would be surrounded by dead bodies and would still be under fire from the Minutemen.

Other locations of the wasteland were hit, with a group of Vortex's units detecting the fighting between Lord Kenobi, Darth Vader and raiders. They started with ariel bombardment, with fighters deployed to try and protect his bombers from TIE fighter attacks. When he regained control, the battle was still raging on.

The arrival of the robots did not make the situation better. The 501st was being overrun in this four way battle. However, the TIE Fighters start to focus on the fighters and bombers. One of the officers starting to call in reinforcements as Vader was too busy with the Sith. Much needed reinforcements were preparing to come.

While Thrax attempted to get up, the Sith pretender would say his name to Thrax which Thrax wouldn't believe that this pretender is Lord Vader since Lord Vader doesn't even use a machine suit nor speak like a machine. Thrax was then knocked out as Kenobi have arrived.

Lord Kenobi (a Clone War image) looks at the Sith pretender in confusion, he doesn't even get why this pretender calls him an "old man" and saying that he will kill him for the last time. It cause Kenobi to laugh at the pretender.

"Sith pretender, are your eyes okay? Because i am clearly not an old man, you stupid machine." Kenobi's dark side eyes would eye Vader as he tried to find Vader's flaw.

"And also, what do you mean that you will kill me for the last time? I don't even know who you are, pretender and this is my first time encountering you, you abomination." Kenobi would smirk at him although he could sense very familiar to this man, like a close brother but he doesn't know why. He decides he will go for the flow and kill this interesting Sith Lord.

He would notice that Vader is taking a defensive stance which caused Kenobi to laugh. "I will show you the ways of the true Sith, pretender!" He would unleash a powerful Force lightning on to Vader as he laughs.

Meanwhile, Kenobi's 501st Legion was losing more men when the fighters and bombers of an another faction which came out of no where would start to attack them with aerial bombardment, good thing the Imperial TIE fighters decide to attack the fighters and the bombers. Another Sith knight would get killed on this very odd battlefield as he got critically hit by aerial bombardment.

The rest of the Sith Knights would continue to kill Imperial storm troopers, criminals/raiders and remaining Deathclaws while most of Kenobi's 501st Legion were on defensive position, defending the line of defenses they have captured.

Venkman: Southern Continent​

Watching the Stalkers self-destruct, Venkman ordered the small number of Mages under his command to pick up the pieces, checking them to see if they were still active. Having recovered the tech and scouting the local area, they found that Vortex had completely withdrawn from the continent.

They had a moment of relief, unaware of what was happening to the rest of the globe. Venkman was caught off-guard as a golden portal opened and another Mage stepped out wearing heavy armour.
"There's an emergency meeting." He said "You need to come with me. Now."
"What is it?" Venkman asked
"It's Vortex. He's...He's started." He began in a shaken tone "Massacring civilians. Whiterun and Diamond City have already been targeted and he's moving forces across the Wasteland."

Venkman jumped through the golden portal, the armoured Mage following him and arrived in a bunker surrounded by other Mages. Standing over a table was a grizzled and scared elderly man wearing blue robes over a set of leather armour. There was a symbol stitched into the breastplate.

Spoiler: Symbol

He was of the Adamantine Arrow, the "Mage military"
"Just a few minutes ago, Commander Vortex opened fire on civilians in Diamond City and every hold across the hold capitals of Skyrim. These attacks were without warning and brutal. The fighting is still happening as I speak." The General explained in a grim tone before turning towards Venkman "You were the first to encounter him, you spoke to him and indeed you mounted a defence against him after learning of his crimes. Is there anything else you can you tell us?"

Venkman let out a heavy sigh "These recent attacks seem very unlike him. Despite everything he did wrong, he thinks he's the saviour of this world. Attacking civilians he had just promised to protect...It's"
He placed his head in his hands "Everyone has a breaking point though. Or maybe he was playing us all from the very beginning."

Being played by the AI seemed more likely. He had tried to accuse India of launching an invasion of the south for one thing and he had used dirty tactics against the Guardian.
"He has to be stopped!" Venkman shouted, pounding a fist on the table "We can't just stand by as he butchers innocent people! I know we don't have the numbers. I know that paradoxes are an issue but...We. We have to do something."

There was an incoming message before a holographic image of Ghandi appeared.
"Is this line secure?" He asked, getting a nod from the Mage general in response "Good. Now, I can't help you defeat Vortex outright, not without killing even more people...But I do know how to slow him down."
"Go on..." The general said
"We've pin-pointed the location of his satellites. It'll slow him down and give us time to muster up a way to stop him without killing even more people." Ghandi explained grimly "My forces will try to keep the skies clear so that there are no paradoxes. I wish you luck."

With the locations gathered, golden portals appeared in front of every satellite around the planet, ripping each one apart as the portals expanded. Rather than allow each one to fall to Earth and cause more damage, more force was applied to each satellite and so it was destroyed on re-entry or landed harmlessly in the ocean.

"Don't try to trick me, Obi-Wan. You can't trick your former apprentice. You failed him just as your master failed you." Vader said, trying to taunt him with the death of his Master, Qui-Qon. He could feel the Dark Side from his mentor. This might proof for him to be useful, that is if this is even the real Obi-Wan. Wait, he couldn't be Obi-Wan. His former master died on the Death Star.
When Obi-Wan attacked him with Force lightning, he was taken by surprise. But his defensive stance helped him reacting to it, blocking it with his light in just a close call. "Impressive, a Jedi Councilor with Force lightning." Lightning sparking off his lightsaber and against his armor, taking most of the force behind it. Yet, grunting as the lightning still gets past his defense. Taking minor damage to his armor. "Then you are truly a coward, my old friend." he said, spatting if he could at the words 'old friend'.

The men were forced to retreat further as the Sith attacked them. Several of them throwing thermal detonators at the Sith in an attempt to kill them. The TIE Fighters still busy with the fighters and bombers.

"Yes, if you would be so kind." Caesar responded to the female soldier, he'd see to it that all tests went flawlessly. He'd be known as the best scientist on the entire planet if word got out of his achievements. He didn't fantasize for long though, he had orders to give and people to experiment on. "I've already got that settled, all I need to do is give Gandhi proof of my- our hard work. What needs the most work is to see if this growth serum doesn't have any negative effects on my SMILE's and the eaters." the mad scientist gave a reassuring smile.

As soon as Vortex opened fire on the civillians, he returned fire with his anti-armor rifle. The bullets tore through the stalkers and whatnot easily. Then, he moved down to the Minutemen line, firing the whole while. He set up a position, and threw a Support Chopper flare. Soon enough, his I-Droid blared with static and the noise of the chopper pilot.
"This is Pequod! Prioritizing elimination of enemy targets!"

The chopper roared over the heads of the fighters down below, strafing the stalkers with chainguns before pulling back and giving close air support
"In hot! Watch out, Boss!"

Snake would then crouch behind a wall and bark into his I-Droid
"Miller! Get combat down here! get medical too, now!"
He then popped back out, firing at anything else that moved and wasn't defending the city.

COMMANDER VORTEX
Main Base, Wasteland
​

Vortex watched in horror as he re-connected to his hacked units. Luckily for him, Ghandi hadn't locked him out of his units permanently but it still took a lot of work and processing power to get back in control.
But by then it was too late. His units were under fire, being attacked from all sides in areas across the Wasteland and in Skyrim. He was thankful that he hadn't deployed across the entire globe. He'd spent days creating his various convoys, and now he had to make a choice.
If he simply stood down he might run the risk of Ghandi hacking them again and killing civilians. Enough people were already dead as far as Vortex was concerned.

He withdrew his forces away from the more populated areas and made them self-destruct harmlessly, frying their circuits and reducing them to nothing more than ash.

The death toll was in the thousands, with Skyrim sustaining the highest losses.
It was Ghandi's fault. The man had tricked him into committing genocide. There was nothing else for it, Ghandi would have to die before he tricked Vortex again.

With his forces withdrawn from every sector of the globe aside from his Wasteland base, he started to re-build. The Southern continent, Skyrim, the rest of the Wasteland...Any kind of diplomacy was out the window with Ghandi's latest move but he refused to let Ghandi win.

He wasn't ready for all-out war, not yet but he would be the one to make the first strike. He was sure of it.

Lord Kenobi

Kenobi stopped laughing when the pretender called out his real name, a former name perhaps. He stop unleashing his Force lightning since it was no use. How in the name did this man knew his real name? Kenobi's expression turns serious as the man also knew Kenobi's former master, Qui-Gon Jinn, a Jedi Master but not a true Jedi.

"How in the name do you know that name, pretender? No one addresses me as Obi-Wan but Lord Kenobi!" Kenobi continued, "Qui-Gonn Jin didn't fail me but he failed being a Jedi and also I didn't fail no one but the woman I love." He will use his anger to empower his strength. He will perform a deadly and aggressive Juyo lightsaber form against Vader, they fought until they got into saberlock which Kenobi aggressively attempted to pin down Vader as he leans closer to respond Vader's second statement.

"Jedi Councilor? Is your mind damaged or something? Is there a Jedi that looks like a Sith? The Jedi doesn't exist in the galaxy anymore and let me correct you, I am one of the greatest High Lords of the League of the Sith Camarilla!" Kenobi continued, "Coward eh? If you say so but old friend? Like I said, pretender, I don't know who you are, but I'm curious-.. why do you know me so well, including my past-..eh?"

"Now, pretender, what do you fear the most?" Kenobi's dark side eyes would look at Vader, attempting to use Force fear against him while they get into saberlock.

A Sith Knight would get killed in a thermal detonator although some others are managed to use Force shield to protect themselves and force pushed the thermal detonator back to the Imperials. Meanwhile, in the line of defenses, Kenobi's 501st Legion were circling the line of defenses. Half of the E-Webs were aimed at the Imperial storm troopers and opened fire while half of the E-Webs were aimed at raiders and opened fire at them.

"Remember Naboo, remember Tatooine .." Vader said, he could sense this was Obi-Wan. Yet, this was just weird. As Obi-Wan used Force fear. He sensed what he felt already. The betrayal of his friends, it angered him. The death of his wife, he felt guilt. He did not fear death, a part of him wanted to die. His own fears were already reality. Except one, to be replaced by Palpatine. He knew that his Master was planning to replace him. He tried already, but he needed the right time to strike. Vader's hatred for Obi-Wan and himself increased. Starting to push against Obi-Wan, his breathing getting more violently. Moving even closer to Obi-Wan, trying to push him away with all his might. This was taking too long, if the fool was that ignorant fighting his former apprentice and friend. Then he will do without knowing. And this time, he will make it certain Obi-Wan stays dead.

The 501st was being pushed more and more, yet coming into the offense as they set up several more E-Webs and open fire at the Sith. As the fight continued, reinforcements were being deployed to the battlefield from the flagship.

While looking at Vader as he used Force fear which was a success against him, Kenobi would listened at what Vader would said. Remember Naboo, Remember Tatooine? He remembered what he did Naboo as a Sith Lord, the last time he went there is when the Imperials attempted to retake Naboo during Lord Vader and Padme Amidala-Skywalker's marriage ceremony. Battle of Naboo was one of the devastating battles in the early conflict of the Second Great War but good thing they were able to evacuate and head to Alderaan, the capital of the Sith Conglomerate and he haven't went to Tatooine for years now so he doesn't remembering anything being there at al as he have decided not to dwell on the past although he decided to tell this man about what he remembered in Naboo as Lord Kenobi, the Dark Lord of the Sith.

"What I remember in Naboo is when the Imperials surprisedly attacked the planet during Lord Vader and Padme Amidala-Skywalker's marriage ceremony but good thing they were be able to get out of the planet and head to Alderaan for safety. This cause Lord Vader's anger to Palpatine increased than ever before." Kenobi replied with a serious tone as he saber locked the Sith pretender.

Kenobi noticed that Vader was very angry at him, he was really confused about why he is mad at him, he is also curious why this man knew him very well including his days as a Jedi. When Vader attempted to pin down Kenobi, he knew what he was going to do with this man who has having a breathing more violently. He would attempt to disarm Vader's saber using the Force and if it succeeds, he will use Force whirlwind; one of Kenobi's new Force technique, in order to make this man spin around until he gets knocked out or if possible, get killed by the maelstrom.

The remaining Sith Knights would scatter as they avoid or deflect the E-Web attacks coming from the Imperials. The Conglomerate Stormtroopers would help the Sith Knights who turned their attention to the Imperial reinforcements and opened fire at the Imperials using the captured E-Web. The rest of the Stormtroopers would defend their brethren who were using E-Webs against Imperials and raiders, watching their six is imminent.

Confronting the danger​

Senshi watches as the panicking populace go running by. He looks to Shimazu with a concerned look in his brown eyes, Shimazu nods towards him. Senshi draws his Katana, it glares in the sun as it is enveloped by the filthy air, and Shimazu releases his No-Dachi from it's captivity of the sheath. With his shoulder guards flapping in the breeze as he runs, Shimazu takes lead as he holds his No-Dachi over his shoulder, Senshi holding his Katana in a similar way. The two samurai began pushing their way past the crowd in order to see what the disturbance was.

Bjornson listened to the conversation between the survivors slightly confused at what a 'valve' was or what 'goggles ' were. Either way he was ready to take back the city from the demons. "If we can save these people from this threat then we should do so without hesitation, no matter how difficult. These valves you speak of, point me in the right direction and I'll force these demons from each one," Bjornson insisted to the man who had briefed them on this 'stage two of the cure'.

Diamond City: The Wasteland ​

Preston looked up at Snake and gave him a reassuring smile "T-60 Power armour." He said "Kept the bullets off me."
His smile immediately dropped, shifting into a look of sheer horror as he saw the pile of bodies around him. Most had been civilians and refugees who were simply looking for food, with some of the dead being Preston's own men and Diamond City security.

Preston walked over to the body of a downed Minuteman in Power Armour, removing the helmet.

Spoiler: Sturges

Sturges was coughing up a mouthful of blood, his eyes wide with shock and fear. Preston removed his own helmet and looked into Sturges' eyes
"Medic!" Preston cried, clutching Sturges' hand "For God's sake, get this man a Stimpak!"

Sturges placed his other hand on Preston's shoulder
"Save it." He coughed weakly "Give it to someone else..."

He tilted his head to the side, looking at the pile of both dead and dying civilians "The...They need it more than me."
"But..."
Sturges smiled and let out one final breath, tilting his head to the side. Preston shut his friend's eyes and stood to his feet.
"Minutemen!" He shouted, his voice shaking "Get these people some medical attention and reinforce this city's defences. Tomorrow we go after Vortex."

He turned towards Snake "I don't think we can do it alone. Will you help us?"

Karla: Merc Transport ​

The night had been quiet, mostly due to the pilot sneaking a sedative into Karla's food and causing her to fall asleep. When she came to, the aircraft was already over the wasteland and the other mercs had probably had at least a few hours of some goddamn piece and quiet.

When her head had hit the pillow, Karla's clothes had converted into rubber ducky pyjamas that seemed to disappear when she opened her eyes, being immediately replaced with her regular pirate outfit.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we're coming up on Diamond City within the next few minutes. Thank you for flying with us." He said over the radio.
"Shit." He muttered "The LZ is hot, I'm gonna have to drop you off a click from the city."

He opened the cargo doors and just when they were large enough to fit a person, Karla jumped out and giggled like a schoolgirl.
"She jumped without a parachute." The pilot sighed

A Deathclaw with it's legs blown off clawed towards Vader's feet, snarling and swiping at him to no avail while one of Kenobi's Knights would crawl towards his leader, both an arm and a leg missing and bleeding to death.
"My Lord...Please." He begged
