Gleaming in the burning light, the metallic machine moved forward. It looked like a solid block of steel, although it seemed to easily roll forward on small, brass wheels. Hissing nosies erupted from the bottom of it, echoing throughout the scorched canyon. In the distance, troops marched forward, their white and blue uniforms a needed contrast to the pale rock.

Sweating, Officer Gronweil stepped in front of the group, and quickly raised his hand, silencing the crowd and bringing the marching to a standstill.

"Men, in the distance, a behemoth is charging. With nothing but pure evil driving it, it strives to kill us, slaughter our race. We will not let this stand. We must fight valiently."

Unpacking their large rifles, which were painted in the customary colour of the guard, the group spread out. The clanging of metal echoed, and the machine steadily increased speed, coming closer. Fire shot forward from the guns, spitting through the air, leaving a trail of noise. They struck the machine, but only made dents.

Over the hill, an army awaited. The final war had begun.
