"Light em up!"

Hearing the order, All the Mobile Task Force Units immediately started firing their weapons on Horus.

However, it then used its Cryokinesis to create an ice wall in front of it, making most of the bullets ricochet off of the ice wall. 

As the Stand was dealing with the bullers, the CI soldiers came from behind the ice wall and started firing at the MTF soldiers. 

"Take cover!"

All the MTF soldiers quickly scrambled left and right and took cover behind anything that could be considered as cover. Lawrence and Green took cover behind a rock that they found.

"What the hell is that thing!?" Lawrence shouted.

"I'm not sure!"

Meanwhile, Horus made the ice wall shatter and started moving forward along with the CI soldiers. Horus then saw an MTF soldier with a rocket launcher pointed at it. 

"Fire in the hole!" The MTF soldier pulled the trigger on the launcher, which the rocket came flying out of the barrel of the launcher and heading towards Horus at blistering speed. 

Horus then fires six icicles from his hands, one hits the rocket and the other five hit the MTF soldier that carries the launcher, blowing him up to pieces and splattering his blood and body parts all over the snowy ground. 

Horus then looked up and saw an Apache helicopter which fired three rockets at Horus. Horus then quickly made an ice dome around itself, only for the rocket to hit the dome, shattering it into pieces and saving Horus from being blown to bits. 

Horus then fired two icicles at the Apache, hitting its tail and started losing control, resulting it to crash on the ground. 

Meanwhile with Lawrence and Green, they were taking out CI soldiers one by one, but the main problem was Horus that needed to be dealt with. 

"We need to get rid of the bone head there, then we can make some progress." Lawrence said while firing at the CI soldiers.

"Don't tell me you have a crazy idea?" Green questions while reloading his M4A1.

Lawrence looks at Horus who was still fighting and defending himself from gun fire and looks at the collar that Horus had around his neck. 

'Will destroying that collar stop it?' He thought. 

Meanwhile, Horus started covering his entire body in ice, making an ice armor around his entire body. 

Horus then rushed towards the MTF soldiers and began his massacre; It grabbed the first one with his arms and ripped his head clean off his body. He then fired an icicle at an MTF soldier blowing up his top body into pieces. He then quickly fired six more icicles towards four MTF soldiers, killing them in seconds.

"RAAAAARRRRRRRR!!"

An Apache Helicopter in the distance began to fire multiple hellfire missiles on Horus, managing to hit the creature, which created a huge explosion in the process. 

The smoke cleared and to the surprise of the MTF, Horus was still standing but his ice armor then shattered into pieces. Horus then fired a very large icicle from its mouth, shooting at the Apache Helicopter at unprecedented speed, instantly destroying the aircraft.

Meanwhile, the commander along with his fellow MTF soldiers were taking out CI soldiers and trying to take out Horus. 

The commander then saw Lawrence and Green heading towards him. The two crouched in front of the commander which he crouched down as well. 

Lawrence then says, "Sir, I might have an idea on how to stop that thing."

"Alright tell me then."

"That collar around his neck might be what's forcing it to work for the CI. If we can destroy it, then we might move forward."

"And how do you propose we do that? That thing will just use its ice to block our shots."

"Yes, that's why me and Green will go close to it and electrocute the collar using the electric batons, while you and the rest will provide covering fire."

With not many options left, the commander sighs, "Alright. We'll provide covering fire. Hope your plan works."

"It will work sir."

With the commander's approval, Lawrence and Green then rush towards Horus, while the commander and his men start providing covering fire for the two and distracting Horus. 

Horus then looked to his left and saw Lawrence and Green running towards him. Horus was about to fire an icicle, but saw a rocket heading towards him from his right, which then created an ice wall, with the rocket hitting the ice wall shattering it into pieces. 

Lawrence and Green were now close to Horus but then suddenly both of their legs got stuck on something. They looked down and saw that their feet were covered in ice due to Horus's cryokinesis.

""Shit!"" 

Lawrence and Green desperately tried to break the ice by smashing it with the butt of their rifles, trying to get themselves free. 

Green was the first to get out of the ice, but then he saw Horus was about to fire an icicle at Lawrence. Green quickly runs towards Lawrence and pushes him away, only the icicle comes straight towards Green, but he quickly brings his rifle in front of his chest hoping to shield himself from the icicle. 

The icicle hit the rifle and exploded, destroying the gun and sending green flying a few meters away. 

"Green!"

Green, who was lying on the ground, lifted his right arm up and gave a thumbs up, telling him he was ok. Lawrence understood the gesture and then focused his attention on Horus who was glaring at Lawrence. 

"Come on then, you big ugly dinosaur!"

Horus let out a roar and started rushing towards him. Lawrence rushes towards Horus and quickly slides between his feet and shoots his collar a few times with his rifle and gets behind him. Lawrence was about to climb his back but Horus kicked him away using his right leg, sending him flying a few feet and crashing into the snow. 

Lawrence coughed some blood out and felt that his ribs were broken.

He grunts, "Yep, it's broken."

Lawrence weakly got up and removed his helmet to get a better look of his surroundings. He saw Horus was once again getting distracted by the storm of bullets raining down on him as it created ice walls around himself. 

Lawrence saw a small gap between the ice walls and decided to take a chance. He then brings out his electric baton and heads towards Horus. He went through the gap and quickly but quietly climbed up his back and was about to stab the collar, but suddenly the ice walls shattered and the MTF soldiers held their fire seeing Lawrence on Horus' back. 

Horus then quickly turned around, making Lawrence fall off his back and before Lawrence could hit the ground, he was immediately stabbed by Horus's six arms. 

One arm stabbed his right shoulder and another stabbed his left shoulder, another stabbed the right side of his chest and another stabbed his left abdomen, another arm stabbed his left thigh and the last arm had stabbed his right knee. 

"Gah!" Lawrence vomited a mouthful of blood which fell on the white snow. Even the stab wounds he received were bleeding and the blood from the wounds was falling on the snowy ground as well. 

"Check..." He coughs, "...mate."

Before his vision turns black, Lawrence then stabs the collar with the electric baton he was still holding. 

The baton starts electrocuting the collar and Horus as well. Horus screeched in pain as the collar short circuited and a tiny explosion happened on the collar, damaging it. 

The CI soldiers saw it and one of them exclaimed.

"Ah shit, retreat!"

(Music Stops)

The CI soldiers immediately ran back into the building with the MTF soldiers following right behind them. The Apaches started gunning the CI soldiers down with ease along with the help of the MTF soldiers.

Green removed the ice shards on his right shoulder, left hand and left ankle before getting up from the ground and saw Lawrence was stabbed by Horus. 

"Oh no no no, Lawrence!" Green immediately ran towards Horus. 

Horus was panting heavily and then blinked his eyes twice to see that his arms were stuck in Lawrence. Its eyes widened and immediately removed it from Lawrence's body.

Lawrence fell on the snowy ground lying in his own pool of blood. Green dropped on his knees next to Lawrence and removed his helmet.

"Lawrence, please say something. Are you alright?" Green said, worried for his friend.

"Y...Yeah, just fine-..." He coughs out blood, "...and dandy." Lawrence said with a weak smile.

Green looked at Lawrence wounds and saw the severity of them as the blood loss was too much. 

"I need a medic!!" Green yelled out. 

An MTF soldier heard his yell and ran to him, carrying a medical bag. 

The MTF medic kneeled next to Lawrence and then told Green, "Put pressure on his wounds."

Green did just that, while the MTF medic got to work patching up Lawrence. 

"L... looks... Like I'm gonna..... get a yelling..... from Collingwood after this." Lawrence said sarcastically.

"Lawrence just... don't talk for now."

The medic was trying his best and was doing everything he can to stop the bleeding but the wounds were too severe. 

"Hey Green... thanks for- cough! Saving my ass. S... seems..... Like we're even." Lawrence said with a weak chuckle.

"Lawrence please just don't talk."

"I.....t...think...I'll take.....a nap for a few seconds." Lawrence said as his eyes were starting to shut.

"No. No. No. You need to stay awake Lawrence. Please for Collingwood at least stay awake. Please! Green yelled, trying to keep him awake.

Then suddenly Horus slowly approached Lawrence, Green and the medic, the two pulled out their weapons and pointed at him. But Horus ignored them and placed his six hands next to Lawrence's wounds and started to freeze them, stopping the bleeding in the process. 

"It stopped the bleeding." Green mumbled.

"Nice... ok I think I'm gonna pass out now." Lawrence then immediately passed out.

"It will stop the bleeding but he's still at risk. I'll quickly call a chopper to pick us up." The MTF medic pulls out a radio from his pocket trying to contact a chopper. 

Horus looked at Green, to which he hesitant for a moment before responded.

"...Thank you."

Horus just let out a small growl and sat on the ground, looking at its hands that were covered in blood, while Lawrence was still passed out.
