MTF vs Hell Forces(2)

– Las Vegas, Nevada - 5:58 PM –

Transport helicopters with the SCP Foundation's logo embedded in them arrived in the city, carrying mechanized divisions landed into open areas of the city, sending out more reinforcements into battle.

While suffering heavy casualties, even if they had mechanized support, they achieved a breakthrough and brought much of the Hell Forces on the retreat farther into the city. 

"Fire!" An MTF soldier yelled.

Flickers of light started appearing all over the streets, as countless spawns of demons appeared.

Due to the destruction and smoke appearing all over the city, it creates a dark cloud that blocks the sky, however, a few strands of light could be seen piercing the dark clouds as the morning dew appeared. After all, it has been a full twelve hours already since the Hell Forces arrived and invaded, and so the light of the sun is now appearing. 

Heavy fighting was happening all around the city. The fighting was fierce as the army attempted to break through the hard defenses of the Hell Forces. To which the commanding officer finally decided to call in the fire support.

Far away from where he was on the outskirts of Las Vegas, dozens upon dozens of Artillery cannons roared in anger as flashes of light and smoke escaped from its barrels. The next moment, the Multiple Launch Rocket Systems screeched in hatred as it launched countless of its load like a raging god.

After ordering the artillery to fire, the commanding officer was standing atop a building, watching as dozens of the artillery shells and missiles landed in the Hell Barge and into the city.

———————————————————————

On the south side of the city, twenty Nu-7 MTF soldiers were taking out a horde of possessed that are similar to zombies in a way, alongside a military Humvee on their side gunning them down with the high caliber machine guns mounted on the Humvee. 

"Is it just me or is there hard core metal music playing around us?" One of the MTF Soldiers asked.

"That's just your imagination! Keep firing!"

The soldiers continued unleashing bullets on the horde, but then...

"Help!"

All of the soldiers turn around to see the gunner on the humvee was grabbed by the collar by an Imp.

"Help me!"

"Light em up!"

"No! Wai-"

Cutting the soldier's pleads, the MTF Soldiers open fire at the Imp who used the gunner as a meat shield. In mere seconds, hundreds of bullets completely shred the soldier with the Imp being unscathed.

When the flickers of light died down due to them running out of ammo and began to reload, the Imp without wasting a second instantly lunged towards its first victim.

"Take it dow-... argh!"

Spurt!

Before the soldier could finish his words, the Imp slashed down its claws at fast speed, causing the soldier's body to be cutted into four separate pieces within an instant.

It ran off with large strides as the soldier fell to its knees. After losing two fellow soldiers, the group of MTF Soldiers already finished reloading and immediately redirected their shots towards it.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Flickers of light erupted from the front of the Imp and most of the shots hit it. However, it wasn't enough to stop the Imp, and so it got close and took its second victim.

The soldier in the front was aiming down his Assault Rifle when the figure got too close for comfort, and so he switched into close quarter combat position. Unfortunately for the soldier, the figure snatched his weapon and threw it.

"Shireeeek!" The Imp screeches.

Upon seeing his weapons on the floor a few feet away, the soldier swiftly switched into his second combat knife. Alas, it was too late; the Imp swiftly passed its claws right through the soldier's neck. 

In the next second, the soldier's head flies off from his body as crimson blood gushes out of the decapitated body like a fountain of blood, splattered all over the surroundings, to the horror of the other MTF soldiers. But it didn't stop there.

After dodging and tanking many gunshots that were being fired against it, the Imp raised its palm and a ball of flame manifested before throwing at an MTF Soldier far from it, blasting through him, his burnt internal organs instantly burst out from his back.

The soldier near it focused with all his might on shooting the Imp, however, it ended on the same fate as his other teammate, getting launched back by the force from a lightning fast fireball right at his chest, with the fireball hot as the sun, it melts his bulletproof armor plate, skin, organs, and bones within a split second.

This didn't go unnoticed by the surrounding MTF soldiers as they continued to shoot at the demon. However, no matter how many bullets they slam into it, it just continues to go on a rampage, even some bullets managed to pierce through its thick skin, mostly from armor piercing rounds, it didn't stop. For the past few seconds, one by one, the Imp took out a few MTF soldiers while being incredibly agile, dodging and tanking numerous bullets that were being fired from all directions.

After killing its 9th soldier, it immediately dash towards another. However, before the Imp was able to take out its tenth victim, an MTF soldier far from it was aiming the Imp with a large rod of steel on his shoulders.

"Check your back!" The man said to the MTF soldier who was holding the rod of steel.

The MTF soldier looked behind him and nodded at the man.

"Check!"

"Fire!"

The MTF soldier was carrying a Rocket Launcher, and when the order of fire was released. A barrage of smoke came from its behind to which was then followed by the actual release of the rocket towards its intended target.

A bright light lit up the surroundings as the rocket launched off to which a smoke from it then followed its behind. The Imp didn't notice it at first, but then when it finally noticed it, it tried to avoid it as its senses were tingling in alertness. Unfortunately for the little demon, it was too late.

BOOM!

Another bright light lit up, which was then followed by a powerful explosion that rocked the surroundings. The remaining eleven MTF soldiers that were near the blast radius fell to their butt, which was then soaked in murky water that was mixed with blood and disgusting smell.

Upon contact with the explosion, the Imp was utterly obliterated even though it had tanked most of their bullets that were fired against it. Unfortunately, it wasn't able to withstand something that packs a stronger punch.

Upon seeing the death of the Imp that massacred their numbers, they cheered in the surroundings. However, the current situation didn't allow it to last long as everything happened so quickly that another round of those flying monstrosities were approaching them.

The MTF soldiers then dashed off towards their respective positions and started firing at the gargoyles. 

———————————————————————

BOOM!

The M1A1 Abram Tank stopped in the middle of the streets and fired a shot to which the dust everywhere suddenly moved and flew away to which was followed by a deafening explosion at the far side of the battlefield.

After which, another ear-piercing roar reverberated through the surroundings, killing another Arachnotron. But then, something appeared, which caused the MTF soldiers to be caught off guard for a few more moments, because a ten feet tall bulky Demon suddenly jumped down from a building and landed into the ground, creating a five feet radius crater in the process as it had appeared before them.

It was a Hell Knight.

Seeing the inevitable battle, the MTF soldiers, alongside with two Humvees moved to a safer location and provided fire support. If only the soldiers had enough rockets for their rocket launchers, then they would be able to provide much better fire support for the Tank. However, they ran out of their rockets due to most of the demons having resistance against their bullets, which they began to rely on explosive equipment to neutralize them.

The Hell Knight roared and charged towards the Abram Tank at the same speed as a War Horse, to which was countered with a thunderous fire from the MTF Soldiers firing their gun at it, including several gunners firing their machine guns in their Humvees. The battle was happening in a street to street fashion and so the two sides were at the front of each other.

Therefore, when the Abram Tank shot, its load missed. However, the blast also hit the side of the Hell Knight.

After being hit by the force of explosion from the Tank, the Hell Knight tripped and fell. The Hell Knight roared in anger to which it stood back up and once again charged towards the Tank. 

Unfortunately for the Tank, it's main armament was still reloading and so it tried to back up, and have the MTF Soldiers and Humvees pummel the Hell Knight into the ground, unfortunately due to its body thicker than titanium, the bullets does little effect into its body.

The Hell Knight was able to close the distance within a few moments to the first soldiers and rammed them like a rampaging truck, throwing them into a far distance.

As the Hell Knight was about to move forward into the Tank, the Abram Tank finished reloading and so shot its load, with the Hell Knight being ten meters away, it managed to direct hit, right at the chest of the Hell Knight.

As a result, the Hell Knight's chest exploded, its guts bursted out into the back of its chest, having its carcass scattered around the places and painting the surroundings crimson red.

After the Hell Knight died, the MTF Soldiers cheered and began to move forward, followed by two Humvees and one Abram Tank.

However, suddenly, in the far distance of the streets, something is slowly walking towards the MTF units menacingly.

Some of the soldiers spotted it. What they saw is something that lets out a terrifying amount of killing intent towards them, a creature with blades made out of concentration of hot plasma on its arms. 

A Dread Knight.

[IMAGES]

Noticing another demon in their sight, the two gunners on the Humvees aimed their machine guns at it and began firing.

However, the dread knight lunged towards one of the Humvee, it grabs its front bumper and yeets it at another Humvee, causing the two vehicles to crash into each other.

All of the MTF soldiers immediately reacted and started firing at it but it only made the Dread Knight angrier, he rushes towards the group of MTF soldiers and in a flash, it decapitated five of them in an instant, stabbed one in the chest and throw him towards another MTF soldier, crashing into him.

In a spinning fashion, the Dread Knight had slashed down at least a dozen of MTF soldiers in a matter of seconds, he slashed down another one, cutting his torso in half before grabbing another one, without hesitation, the Dread Knight rips him in half and throws the two halves away.

After slaughtering an entire squad, the Dread Knight was being shot by multiple .50 caliber rounds into his back, he looks back to see the Abram Tank with an MTF Soldier on the top, gunning him down with a machine gun.

In a state of rage, the Dread Knight slammed his foot into the ground and charged forward, creating a small crater he left behind as he rush towards the tank at frightening speeds.

The gunner reacted and continued firing but surprisingly, the Dread Knight used its energy blades to slice through the rounds without any of them touching him. The tank crews in the tank also reacted, in seconds they ready the load and fire.

A deafening boom sounded as the tank shell burst out of the barrel and headed towards the Dread Knight at supersonic speeds.

But then, all of a sudden and to all of the soldiers' utter shock, the Dread Knight crossed slash at the incoming tank shell, which cutted it into four separate pieces. However, even though it had sliced the tank shell, it still exploded.

The MTF soldier and the tank crew stare into the cloud of dust, thinking they might have killed the demon. But then, a figure moving in a blur ran out from the cloud of dust and continued to rush forward.

Realizing the Dread Knight still lives, the gunner immediately reacts and continues to fire more high caliber rounds only to get disintegrated by its energy blades.

The Dread Knight jumped into the air, the gunner continued to shoot all his might while the demon was still slicing the bullets.

Like a bolt of lightning, the Dread Knight struck down, cleaving the MTF Soldier, even the tank into two that could make Raiden proud.

But then, the tank explodes, due to also cutting the tank shell which triggers an explosion that shakes the streets.

However, the Dread Knight still lives as it walks out of the sea of flames with slight injuries, once it had destroyed the tank, it let out a deafening roar that reverberated throughout the streets.

But then, he noticed one of the soldiers, alive and laying on the ground, trying to reload his rifle after the humvee he rode on was thrown towards another.

As the Dread Knight slowly approaches the soldier, he finishes reloading his gun and begins firing at the Dread Knight, aiming his chest with a yell. However, the Dread Knight seemed unfazed by the shots, with a slight movement, it cut the rifle in half with ease.

Staring at his destroyed weapon, the soldier looks back at the Dread Knight and the last thing he sees before his life flashes is the Demon smashing his head with his foot, killing him in an instant.

After massacring an entire Mobile Task Force Units, the Dread Knight saw more of his Dread Knight brothers following him and he continued forward with the rest of the forces.

Scenes like this were often common in the battle of Las Vegas, and soon this city will fall by the hands of the forces of the Hell Dimension. However, what they didn't know was that they were about to be ripped and torn by certain individuals.
