EMP Missiles

"Emergency override initiated." Aya said as she kept working in detonating the missiles from afar.

We were a long way from L.A, probably very far for a signal to get through without the use of a satellite. It wasn't that they weren't using it rather the fact that whatever that was cutting off their transmission, was something of greater might than they anticipated.

"Our communication with them is being disrupted at a large scale making any attempt that we make futile. The emergency override has been cut off in the last second many times than I thought to be possible." Aya continued to give out the report as best as she understands.

"Stop the car, Aya." Rue said as she was trying to think of a possible solution but couldn't because of the car traveling at over 140 m/h.

She was probably just thinking about one thing. And that was how she would fair if they were to be in an accident.

She had full faith in her friend and the Hypersport, but it didn't assure her that she will come out of the other side unscathed.

Screech!

With a momentum force that still pushed it a couple of meters ahead, the car came to a standstill and Rue got to thinking.

"We can disrupt the source of the disruption for as long as we can but just enough for us to send a command through." Rue said as she thought of the best solution in a short time.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

"But what could have triggered the disruption from that far? What are those missiles made of Aya that you think are enough to save any more innocent lives... You have to at least guarantee a hundred percent one hit for the drones not to retaliate." Rue asked her friend as she knew that nothing like that could happen just from the blue without anything triggering that reaction.

"Those are some nasty Electro-Magnetic Pulse missiles. Don't be so shocked, the way I give out the names without much care is that there is more to what you know or think in this car." Aya replied probably boasting from the tone that she used while speaking.

"So can they achieve a one-hit to the drones?" Rue asked again just to make sure that Aya wasn't just being prideful.

"I have been taking a close look of the battlefield since all hell broke loose. And I can say that the drones have thick and sturdy surfaces that make it impossible for most ammunition to penetrate. So I choose those little guys to shut them down as you can't block a pulse from sweeping through whatever that stands on its way." Aya answered and Rue couldn't help it as she thought of other possible problems from the answers that she was getting.

"So what you mean is that they contain condensed power probably just less than a nuclear bomb?" Rue said as if she had seen a nuclear weapon in action.

"Probably, yes. And even more. Remember these are my creation, and with them comes every unthinkable scenario that you could ever think of." Aya explained as she was guiding the new missiles that she had just ejected from the Hypersport.

"And what have you released just now?" Rue asked as she didn't even get notified like before.

"Those are light Signal Disruption missiles that have the ability to travel at greater speeds than most missiles due to their light components." Aya explained again as she just made use of Rues' advice.

"They are two seconds from the target... Initiating emergency override... Standing by... Standing by... Failed." Rue's heart sunk as she heard the last prompt.

"So what happened? Why did it fail, we are losing time here?" Rue now was a little pissed by the failed attempt and her voice showed it all.

"Am afraid our opponent is rather a special one to hold their ground with me." Aya now had a voice of curiosity that only made her even more curious as time went by.

"Now what should we do? The aliens must have connected the dots and are probably any second now from making their escape."

"There's only one thing left to do." Aya said as a similar sniper rifle emerged from below the car.

"We have to break one by ourselves."

Rue just said an okay before picking up the Death Storm in her hands. She didn't ask any further questions as the roof opened.

Standing while holding the rifle, Rue looked domineering with the stance that she took.

When she finally stabilized her movements which only took a second because she released her Qi to communicate with the heavens and earth. A muffled sound was heard as a glowing red energy bullet exited the muzzle and made its way to its target at a speed of 2.83 miles a second.

...

'What are you doing?' I asked as I knew that it was the doing of the voice inside of me.

If it could gather enough essence of the people that have died and restore them inside the girl, of which made her came back to life. As in what other mysteries does the voice contain?

[There is much power in that than any of the others that I have felt.] The voice answered with satisfaction in its tone.

[Mmmh! This is getting interesting. Still trying a tug of war with me?

Hahahaha! Hahaha!

That girl that you were with, she is quite special and extraordinary. She has the power to do the most impossible things that no man can do.

And by the way, this gets more interesting with the fact that she has an S.I. with her...]

'An S.I. Why do you just speak in riddles? You will have me killed one day... Shit, what the hell are you?' I said as I thought why would I be the most unlucky guy in the world?

Everything that I get in return is either bullshit or wanting to kill me or a bullet in my head.

'Just release them, and let them do their work.' I said like I was begging which made my heart sank.

[No... This gets more interesting, just watch what happens next.]

Just as I concentrated on the magnificent scene in the night sky, two smaller missiles had already reached the area and with a pop, they displayed a small explosion.

Nothing happened which made me think maybe they were decoys and the real missile was on its way.

And just like I predicted, a searing red bullet came through at a grand speed. It was a bullet by just its smaller size. The only thing that made me curious is the fact that that was the second time witnessing a bullet that radiated power and glowed at the same time.

If I was right, that should have been the work of the Death Storm, a futuristic sniper rifle that gave me the chills when I first touched it. So it means that Rue was the one that pressed the trigger?

As the energy bullet reached near one of the missiles, a kind of fear built up inside my chest as I knew what was the next reaction that would occur.

But at the same time, I couldn't be more happier as I felt the dread that the voice was releasing. I knew that even if it could stop the missiles from exploding, it couldn't do the same with the bullet.

Within the next second, the bullet struck the missile at the tip and continued making its way forward.

Just with that small action, an explosion never before to be seen took place.

Booom!

The chain reaction that it displayed initiated the sequence of the next missile and it too exploded.

Booom!

Just as they exploded within a fraction of a second apart. A blue-colored surge of energy escaped as it spread over the atmosphere at an incredible speed.

It was just a small reaction but what followed, a shockwave that razzed a four-block radius just underneath.

Just as soon as the blue energy came into contact with a machine, they would cease to function and start to fall.

Just from the look of things, nothing was spared. From the drones that were yet to escape to the military helicopters that were still in the fight, all of them started to fall.

Even the sea fleet that was a few miles into the ocean wasn't spared from that attack. And the most shocking thing was that even the Tower helos soon were seen to be on the same trend.

With that happening, the war was already over and the US military scored the winning points in this last attempt. But with the positive victory, came the negative emotion of their comrades' free falling while still compartmentalized inside the war machines.

Soon enough, the blue energy covered every mile into as far as the eye could see. With it passing by, every electronic device seems to shut down and a new era arose.
