Battle vs. William Joseph "BJ" Blazkowicz (by Monkey Doctor 33)
London Nautica, England

It's a breezy and cold day around the famed research building made by the Nazis. Everything was silent, save for some stray animals running around, nothing was there. Not even a single battle-hardened guardian Nazi, or weird wonders they've made were there. The London Nautica has been in quiet days in the past few months. No one knows what has happened to the place, but some high ranking Nazis knew what's gonna happen there. Some remainings of the Nazi took the Nautica as their last base, after the death of Wilhelm Strasse. They're figuring out a way to conquer the world once again, under the wing of another Nazi leader, whose name is unknown. They are currently working on a kind of substance, seemingly "alien" in nature, codenamed "Fuse". They thought that they can harness this mysterious power to regain control, but one day, all of those will change.

A plane, seemingly advanced in nature, arrived in front of the London Nautica. Inside, there are 4 persons, 2 men, 2 women, armed. Luckily there, like as mentioned above, no Nazis were present.

"Are you sure about doing this, alone?" Said Naya Deveraux with distrust.

"Why not? The place is empty, I think. Plus, we're landing in front of this building with no one look, so it should be safe here." Dalton Brooks muttered.

"Remember, Brooks. We're here to investigate that there is some kind of organization, not Raven or Fable's, is trying to harness the Fuse. Some intelligences said that it's... Germanic in nature." Jacob Kimble seems to be worried about Dalton Brooks entering the Nautica alone.

"It'll be fine! Trust me. And Germanic in nature? Heh. Nazis don't exist this time."

"Well, anyway. If you want to go there alone, we'll set up a comm with you." Isabelle Sinclair said with confidence.

"Fine then. Wish me luck then." Dalton then drops down from the plane, to the exteriors of the London Nautica, while the plane leaves, and the Overstrike 9 sets up a comm with him.

Dalton walks to the entrance of the London Nautica. Just some steps inside the Nautica, Dalton was surprised that there are Nazi flags and symbols around the building.

"Damn... Jacob is right! (On comm) Jacob, you're damn f*ckin' right! It's Nazi over here!"

"(Jacob Kimble) What?! There are Nazis there?"

''"Not a single damn Nazi soldiers here, but definitely this place is owned by the Nazis or some kind of f*cking Nazi fanatic!" ''After cutting the comm, Dalton began to walk to an interesting room that picks Dalton's mind...

Meanwhile...

"Caroline, you better be sane about this." BJ Blazkowicz said to Caroline Becker with an angry tone, on comm.

''"Based on the information of our fellow resistance members, the Nazis have been tinkering with some kind of... Weird substance with great power." ''

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Seriously? Deathshead is gone, and they're not stopping? Are they mad or what?"

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">''"(Anya Oliwa) They're always mad, Blazko. Good luck, anyway." ''After cutting the comm, BJ, in the helipad of the Nautica, where he once faced a giant guard robot there, walked to the control room of the area.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Damn, systems haven't changed since I came here." BJ mutters while unlocking a door, leading to the Da'at Yichud Laboratory, with Assault Rifle 1960 in hand.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Damn, these Nazis are very smart. I wonder who made all these things?" Dalton said as he was walking around the Moon Dome area of the main base.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"(Naya Deveraux) I couldn't see what you're seeing, but seems like they've scored a good achievement."

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Couldn't really believe that they did this." Dalton looks at the moon construct in the Dome.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">Dalton walked around the Dome, trying to find some things, and he entered a room, leading to an unknown lab.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Hm, nothing special here. Caroline, you sure there are some big things the Nazis are doing over here?" BJ said while sneaking over the Da'at Yichud lab, although he knows that no one was there.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">''"(Becker) Trust me, there are something over..." ''Before Caroline can continue, BJ interrupted.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Holy sh*t... Caroline... What the hell on earth is this?" BJ sees some canisters around the lab, filled with the "Fuse" substance.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">''"(Becker) I told you so! Now, you can pick one of those canisters for us to..." ''Again, before Caroline can continue, BJ said with an alarming tone.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Sh*t! I heard some footsteps!" BJ takes cover behind a wall in the lab, and crouches down, with his AR 1960 armed and ready.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">At the same time, Dalton has entered the Da'at Yichud lab, while not knowing that BJ was taking cover there.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Guys... It's true.. The Nazis have been developing some stuffs with these Fuse substances..." Dalton said with the Daybreaker rifle in hand.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"(Jacob Kimble) Nazis screwing up with Fuse? Oh damn, that's gonna be dangerous."

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"I know right?"

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">While Dalton was speaking to Kimble, BJ secretly hears the conversation.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Fuse... Caroline, that's the name of the substance.. Fu..." Before BJ can continue his words, his last word is heard a bit by Dalton, which alerted him.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Who's there? Anybody?" Dalton said with his Daybreaker, alerted. While Dalton was looking back, BJ takes a peek at him, and sees that he has a heavy armor, as well as an assault rifle, seemingly more advanced than BJ's rifle.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Seems like this guy is after the same thing after us. He also got some back-ups over his comm. Time to give this guy a lesson."

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"(Anya Oliwa) Wait, BJ! No!"

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">Before BJ can hear Oliwa's words, BJ immediately jumped out of the cover and shouts loudly at Dalton, saying "Hey sucker!" and fires his Assault Rifle 1960, only with Dalton immediately reacting and dodging the shots.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"(Naya Deveraux) What the hell is that?"

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Oh, f*ck! There is someone here!"

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">With Daybreaker in hand, Dalton takes cover behind a table. Dalton tries to shoot the Daybreaker at BJ, but BJ kept supressing Dalton, until he stops.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Who the hell are you?!" BJ said angrily while reloading his AR 1960. At the same time, Dalton switches his assault rifle with the Magshield, and waits for BJ.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">BJ walks to Dalton's cover position, and he immediately sees Dalton crouching. Before BJ can shoot Dalton, Dalton said, "Someone you don't want to mess with", and a stream of bullets hit Dalton... Dalton's shield.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"The hell?" BJ gets surprised that Dalton got a shield weaponry.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Told ya!" After saying that, Dalton uses his Magshield's shield blast that knocks and stuns BJ away. Brooks took the opportunity and runs away from him.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Damn! Caroline, this guy got a shield weapon! And it is really damn f*cking annoying!"

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"(Becker) Then that means that there is another new Nazi member. Shoot him dead!"

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">Dalton runs back to the Moon Dome, but sees that his Magshield is running out of Fuse after doing a shield blast and catching BJ's bullet stream.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Damn need to... Oh..." Dalton sees that there are some Fuse substances in small canisters that he can use to reload the Magshield. Dalton immediately refuels the Magshield with the Fuse, but then, BJ arrived on another side and rains down a barrage of bullets to Dalton. Dalton uses his Magshield to defend himself against the bullets while running away to cover. When in cover, Dalton switches the Magshield to the Daybreaker to return fire against BJ. A burst of bullets hit BJ in the shoulder.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Damn! This guy really got some big punch!" BJ ignores the pain while reloading the AR 1960, and rushes to another position while trying to shoot Dalton, who also tries to shoot him. Both men's bullets didn't kill each other, but gave them real pain. Both soldiers ran away from each other, while they arrive in different places. BJ near the elevator for people to go to the moon, while Dalton in the main hall.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Fine then. He uses shield? Time to make it even." BJ arms himself with the LKW, while recharging it's laser rifle mode with a power station nearby.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">BJ runs to the main hall, where he finds Dalton trying to find him. And when Dalton sees BJ's LKW, he gets surprised, and BJ takes his turn of domination.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Say hello to my big f*cker!" BJ then unleashed a barrage of laser blasts from the LKW, which Dalton tried to defend with the Magshield. The LKW begins to drop the shield's power low, but then at the same time, the LKW runs out of power.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Sh*t."

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"That's what you get for being a hard-headed person, old man!" Dalton says while charging to BJ and uses a shield blast to BJ with the remaining power. BJ gets irritated by this and pursues Dalton. But later, he lost Dalton's track.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">BJ ended up in another room that he hasn't known yet, but it is filled up with lots of power station that he used to recharge the LKW. In the same time, Dalton ends up in another research room with lots of Fuse canisters, which of course, is used to refill his Magshield.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">BJ gets out from his room, and now, with stealth, tries to find Dalton around a warehouse he discovered. Dalton was also trying to find him, and he spots BJ first in the warehouse.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Seems like it's time for the lights to go out." Dalton says while he sneaks through BJ and turns off the warehouse's light, surprising BJ, but renders both men's vision useless.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"What the hell? I know you're there, stranger!" BJ said while in a stance of readiness, with LKW in hand, armed and ready.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">Dalton sneaks on BJ and with his Guardian, tries to shoot BJ in the head. Unluckily, BJ already felt that Dalton was behind and punches him in the head, stunning him and then fires the LKW with the scope, which unleashes all of the LKW's power after being used all over until power out. But then, Dalton quickly recovers from the punch and immediately puts a mobile shield from the Magshield to absorb the shot from LKW. This irritates BJ and he goes the other way to find Dalton, again. Like cat and mouse.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">Finally, the two soldiers encountered each other outside the London Nautica. And at last, it's the final showdown between the two men, without the LKW or Magshield. They're just armed with their handguns.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"I got hell of a time finding you around this damn place." BJ mutters with his Handgun 1960 loaded and ready for action.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"You know what? You started all of this. This is pretty weird, eh?" Dalton says sarcastically with his Guardian prepared.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Well, tell me who you are, and what on f*cking earth are you doing here."

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Easy, I'm investigating this place because somebody has been meddling around with the Fuse."

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"And those are the Nazis. Caroline was right."

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Who's Caroline?"

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Somebody you don't want to mess with." BJ repeats Dalton's words that he said the first time to him, and the two engaged in a locked combat.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">BJ starts by punching Dalton's face, and tries to shoot his head. But Dalton was too quick for the old man and he dodged the bullet and delivers an uppercut. Dalton kicks away BJ and shoots him with the Guardian, but BJ ducks over the bullet and fires his Handgun 1960 in three round burst mode, and it hits Dalton's armor, but delivers a considerable amount of damage. The two exchanges gunfires between their handguns, and then both are left wth one bullet in their handguns.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"So, kid. Conclusion?" BJ said while suffering some damage from the Guardian, as well as Dalton from the Handgun 1960.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"I win." After that, BJ, shoots Dalton with the Handgun 1960 in the last bullet, with silencer and Dalton also fires the last bullet of the Guardian.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">The Guardian delivers a loud bang while the Handgun 1960 delivers a small sound. In the end, it was all silent. Both soldiers stared at each other, but then the conclusion was reached.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"This.. Isn't over... Motherf*cker..." After BJ said that, he drops down with blood all over. Dalton then breathes heavily, and sees his wounds, as well as BJ's dead body.

<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">"Oh damn.. This is so... Uhh..." Dalton decided to finish his talking and walks away from BJ's dead body without his Guardian, exhausted, and tries to call for the Overstrike 9's extraction. Winner: Dalton Brooks

Expert's Opinoin
BJ is more experienced, yes. But his weapons are mostly offensive-oriented, which is countered by Dalton's Magshield, which renders nearly all of BJ's weapons useless. Not just that, Dalton's armor, as well as superior combat skills has given him the winning side in this battle. Dalton's weapons are also more advanced than BJ's, even if Blazko's weapons are also advanced. In the end, the leader of Overstrike 9 wins.
