《Sonata Jackson: The journey of a female soldier》Chater Seventeen: Tankers
Advertisement
Several days later
Outside of Cottonbus, East Germany
Sonata Jackson was inside of a Little Bird M1A1 Main Battle Tank that's a 68 ton tank with a crew of four with steen encased depleted uranium armor, 3500 HP gas turbine engine, 1 .7.62mm machine gun, 1. 50 Cal HMG, and 1 minigun and one 150mm smoothbore cannon. And just one costs between $4.5-5 million LBD.
***
Yesterday, in the city of Cottonbus, East Germany
The M1A1 Main Battle Tank was getting shot at by a few machine guns from a seven-story apartment building and it fired a few High Explosive rounds at the building.
The tank commander popped up and there was a gunshot and the tank commander fell back inside of the tank with a bullet in his head.
"Sonata!" said Sgt Paul, "Get up there and take over!"
Sonata climbed inside the tank via the commander's hatch. To Sonata the tank wasn't entirely comfortable but she followed her brother's order to have the tank advance and the tank moved taking machine gun fire and the special forces soldiers dealing with Ani-Armor teams.
The seat Sonata was sitting in wasn't comfortable at all and it hurt her butt and back.
"Gunner enemy tank twelve o' clock!" said Sonata, "And fire!"
The tank gunner fired an anti-tank round and it destroyed it.
They continued until they came to a road they couldn't continue on so Sonata ordered them to go through a multi-story parking garage and go through the underground parking to the other side.
The ground cracked and the tank fell down three sublevels. Even though it was damaged they kept on going.
The tank sputtered after awhile and stopped so the crew even Sonata got out and it's the engine that got badly damaged. Luckily enough the crew is skilled enough and trained how to do basic field repairs and the cars in the parking lot they stripped to do field repairs on the tank.

They repaired the engine and the tank and got back in and went on there way.

Outside
Where the hell is Sonata and Bulldog 1-3! Sgt Paul Jackson thought, Where the fuck are they! We're pinned down by seven maybe ten Machine gun teams!
Soon the tank called "Bulldog 1-3" came and helped the Special Forces team and took out the machine gun teams with HE rounds.
I would hate to see what they look like after that, Sonata thought, My guess is nothing good.
The tank continued and they helped their American allies giving the American 1st Infantry Division some breathing room because they were taking heavy fire from machine guns, artillery, mortars, and so on and so forth. But they held and waited for ammo and reinforcements which did come and they pushed on more.
The American 1st Infantry Division was grateful for the help but it feels like there still surrounded though. But after all in the Republic of Korea is on a defensive war and the US has there USMC in the unified Republic of Korea helping defend it from the Soviets. The Little Bird Marines were in Southeast Germany doing more damage than ever imagined.
***
After several hours they moved and punched a huge hole in the Soviet Defense lines.
Outside of Cottonbus the Americans set up a combat base to the South, the British had one up to the north, the Little Birdens in the center.
On the north, there was a bright light and they didn't know what it was.
"A TACTICAL NUKE WAS DEPLOYED!" yelled a Little Birden Officer, "I REPEAT A TACTICAL NUKE WAS DEPLOYED! BATTLE STATIONS!"
Sonata climbed back inside of the tank and the other Little Birden soldiers got into vehicles that are radiation resistant.
The Soviet 8th Guards attacked in an all-out desperate offensive but they're disorganized and all that. But they have three motorized battalions, five mechanized battalions, three tank companies (mostly T-80s), and 72 artillery.

The Americans in the South have 160,000 soldiers, 1500 artillery guns, 930 M1 and M1A1 Abrams tanks, and in the center, the Little Birdens have 280,000 soldiers, 3000 Artillery and Anti-Air guns, and 1860 tanks.
But the rest of the Little Bird, American, and the rest of NATO's Armies are holding the lines at other places and they're not considered a part of it.
Sonata didn't even need to command and the tank crew got them out of the battle unscathed they destroyed a total of 40 Soviet tanks, ten Soviet APCs and killed sixty-nine Soviet soldiers.
Sonata had a blast as being a tank commander. But she got out of the tank when they returned to base and they were done but Sonata had to return back to a soldier.
Damn wish I became a tanker instead! Sonata thought, That was fun wish I could do it again! Wait can I do it again? Well if I can it won't be anytime soon,

First RE:Guards
Status: Never to return again in this form (But the characters shall appear in a rewrite) I used to be a fire fighter. The requirements were easy enough with today's technology. Machines did the heavy lifting. Artificial intelligences put together action plans with the greatest resolution possible. Most days were simple jobs, first aid on minor fires, cats stuck in pipes too fine for machines, or when alarms went off that normal security scans couldn't eliminate. Most of the time our only skill was being willing to go into dangerous areas and follow orders, only I died running into the latest in biological terror. A beast that spawned fire. I remember the pain, it overwhelmed everything. Now I've woken in a new sort of existence. One where the only creature to view is a little girl, and she needs my help. Isabella Brand. Izzy, my one light in world of darkness and pain. She has the makings of a mage in her world and I'm going to be her spirit animal.

A New Kind of Freak (A dragon evolution story)
For dragons, those who dominate the food chain, growth is always a troublesome time. Left to fend for oneself with only a library of memories passed down as their inheritance, no fate is worse than being a failure before birth. What can a small mutated hatchling do in such snowy outskirts? With few options besides magic, the Nexus provides a quick source of power, but that does not mean his enemies were without strength. Levels and stats are available to all in this dragon eat dragon wor- "So... am I really made of Ice-cream?" * * * This is a Progression fantasy where the main concept is about the growing protagonist actually focusing on their own growth without passing through constant hoops for the sake of it. He stays out of trouble, albeit not always successfully, and only cares about evolving enough that he can hold his own weight in the world. Showing that being made of ice-cream isn't a weakness, but a strength when nurtered properly. Also it doesn't end in a protagonist who becomes/kills god, because that just doesn't fit the theme.
