Chapter 110: War With Cobra: Part 8

Two miles from the Joes' location, Cobra is assessing the extent of the damage caused by the traps sprung upon them. Tension fills the air as Medi-Vipers triage the wounded, moving swiftly to stabilize the most critically injured. Meanwhile, the Cobra infantry forces gear up for a ground assault. Squads of Cobra Troopers, Peace Keepers, and Vipers assemble to receive their orders. As anticipation builds, a cloud of dust swirls from the road, announcing the arrival of the Stingers.


Once, Stingers were merely light vehicles designed for rapid surface-to-air defense in Cobra-controlled areas. However, the ferocity of the zombie apocalypse has given birth to a new generation of Stingers as heavily armed behemoths. Reinforced armor-plating shields the occupants from both the menace of the undead and the chaos of battle. Each vehicle is equipped with menacing door-mounted Gatling guns that send thousands of rounds of ammunition down range in seconds. A lethal belt-fed .50 caliber smart gun has replaced the SAMs. Fixed to the front is an aggressive plow designed to clear paths through hordes of the undead and the living.


Now, five of these Stingers enter the fray, engines rumbling ominously before going silent. The drivers exit their vehicles and stride toward the assembled officers.


"Sir, reporting for duty," the lead Stinger driver snaps a sharp salute to Tombstone and Onesi.


"Excellent," Tombstone replies, his lips curling into a sinister grin as his mind races with thoughts of how best to deploy the lethal Stingers.


As his mind races, dust kicks up as a FANG Gen4 arrives, its presence amplified by its eerie silence. Utilizing advanced white noise and stealth technology, the single-cockpit VTOL glides in without a sound. With it comes the fiercest collection of weaponry of any Cobra aircraft. It was designed to eradicate massive hordes of undead. It bristles with firepower; two tri-barrelled .50 cal machine guns mounted on either side, dual chin guns, a staggering ten 19-tube rocket launchers, and eight HELLFIRE missiles, all poised to rain devastation.


As the last component of Cobra's reinforcements arrives, a small armored troop carrier rumbles forward. The rear hatch swings open with a mechanical hiss, revealing a shadowy interior. The first to emerge from the depths of the armored beast is Outback, clad in his Skullbuster uniform, a fearsome sight to behold. His exposed skin and fiery red hair are covered in thick black camouflage paint. A morbid piece of human skull serves as a mask, an unsettling visage that sends chills racing through the ranks of nearby Cobra troops.


"Things are getting good," Tombstone says as he rubs his hands together in eager anticipation, a wicked glimmer dancing in his good eye as he prepares to unleash his forces upon the unsuspecting G.I. Joe team.
