The angel unit

Signaller, call evac. We are stuck in this hole . Half the squad is dead, the other half wounded we wont last more them 30 minutes..

Staff sergeant looks at what remains of his squad. Those are brave men. Even wounded they wont leave their fallen comrades behind. They made it to a natural bottleneck with a dead end. It's a good place to defend. But not with the gear we have. Low on ammo, rations and water.. At the end of the bottle neck are those who had fallen.. placed in straight rows. At least we respect the dead. The enemy will defile them given the chance. In the middle of those bodies is a tactical nuclear warhead.. enough to make us disappear. He looks at his hand.. 8 dogtags.

..8. Only 6 standing...how the hell did it got this cluster fucked so fast. He takes a deep breath.

Suddenly he is aware that he is in the middle of a fight .. he looks at the opening of the bottleneck. Jameson is building a barricade with rocks to mount his rifle. While privats Davis, and Donaris take turns sending bullets to the enemy. Breathe..

Jameson is the only one not wounded. Those army rangers are one hell of a asset.

Davis is shot it the left leg but a torniquet prevents him from bleeding out. Donaris lost half his hand. But field medic Hanks cauterised what was left... Breathe....

There will be tears when we get home... If we get home.

Those freaking aliens. Why did they have to come here. They almost look human.. except for there nutritional requirements.. they feed on humans..

Don't think about that.. get your squad to safety...

Emergency broadcast activated:

This is Delta Tango One .We need back up and med evac asap.

We are not able to hold location.

We are overrun. More than Half of the squad is down.. rest of the squad is wounded ..i repeat. We are beeing overrun over.. Static..

This is HQ Alpha..

Negative of the back up or med evac. Area is not secure. .. im sorry soldier. We cant send anyone. They shoot down everything we send ...even drones...over

Staff sergeant looks at his remaining squad.. he opens his local coms..

Delta tango one,. It's a no go on the back up or the med evac. I'm sorry guys. I'm sorry i did'nt got you home.

It's been an honor fighting by your side. The TNW is connected, when the last man standing falls. It will go off,.. we dont want the enemy to defile our remains..

He ends the transmission...

How the hell did it came to this...

They are not human.. i think they came from Alpha Centauri or something. They took half de planet before we learned to fight them... Its been 3 years since we started pushing back...at great cost. We will be added to the stack of those who gave their lives for humanity... We'll probably get a medal. And the family will get to put an empty coffin in the ground. .. why am i thinking about this.. i feel weak..cold.. wait. Is that blood.

Fuck. I took one in the stomach..

.WHAT DOES IT SAY???..

Is says:

I wont let you down son

If i have to burn through heaven to reach you I will

This is Defensive Operations.

To the Soldiers of Delta Tango One, stand firm

we are sending you an Angel..

I looked at the signaller like he lost his mind.. WTF is Defensive Operations?...

.......(Sonic Boom)....

The air vibrates... Friend and foe all stop and stare as what seems to be a star is shooting cross the sky.. no. Not cross the sky. Its heading towards them..as it comes closer it slows down they can see it's an armour suit with white wings.. it hits the ground with so much force that everyone within a 900 foot radius falls to their knees. All radios suddenly make the same sound. .... . .-.. .--. / .. ... / .... . .-. .

Delta Tango One's signaller says after 5 seconds on the team radio .. help is here.. it says

That was the moment an angel made hell on earth

It looked like an angel... A steel angel.. But thats not how Angels behave.

It tore through the enemy lines using a sword. Bullets bounced off from its armour. While jumping and flying across the battlefield. As i looked at the one sides Carnage Jameson approaches and tells me that the Angel unit should not exist.. they were de commissioned bout 40 years ago. And all were destroyed. And i can see why...

In less then 5 minutes it turned a dire straight into a blood splattered killing field.. a one sided killing field

Jameson..why were they decommissioned?

I looked at him as he looked at me with the saddest face i had ever seen an army ranger show..Because. he said my father was a pilot.. those suits kill the user. Something about the way the reactor works in cooperation with the body.. there are some researchers that claim it feeds of the soul... We dont know who invented it. Or how the plans of it came in possession of the military... Only thing i know for sure is my dad flew one for 5 months he died one month later in a psychiatric institution. Before he lost it he told me to never ever touch or pilot an angel unit.. From what i know he was one of five test pilots for those machines. They all died within a year after piloting one of those machines. The building schematics and those 5 suits were destroyed...

Meanwhile the carnage was over

The angel unit was standing in the bottleneck with its back to the Soldiers.. Jameson.. watch my six.. i walked slowly towards the unit..as i was closing in i could hear a sound that made my heart ache.. that unit made a crying sound. Like it was weeping from the death it just caused...

...i'm staff sergeant Peterson. Thanks for saving our necks..

It turned and
