Around forty hovercraft lined up in perfect formation in District 2, ready for the attack on the Capitol. The deafening roar of their engines filled the air, creating an atmosphere of anticipation and determination.
Earlier, several support groups had been sent to the hills around the Capitol, special locations selected by Jacob for their future support once the attack began. Outside the Capitol, the mutated beasts awaited orders from Jacob's intelligent assistant, beasts that the Capitol had sent for the destruction of the rebels.
Inside each hovercraft, the rebels were ready for battle. They knew this was a crucial moment in their fight for freedom and were willing to risk everything to overthrow the Capitol. But what made them even more formidable was the presence of Jacob, who controlled each of the hovercrafts with precision and efficiency with the help of his support tool.
The intelligent assistant, a combination of artificial intelligence and advanced technology, had proven to be an unstoppable force on the battlefield. Its ability to make instant strategic decisions and coordinate the rebel troops had been key in numerous previous victories. Now, with control over forty hovercrafts, its power was even more impressive.
With a gesture from the intelligent assistant, the hovercrafts lifted into the air, ascending towards the night sky. The flickering lights on their wings and fuselages created a bright trail, illuminating the path to the Capitol.
As they headed towards their target, the rebels in the hovercrafts maintained a concentrated silence. They knew the battle ahead would be fierce and dangerous, but they trusted in Jacob's leadership and the skill of the intelligent assistant.
Jacob remained silent, pondering the outcomes of this war and how much time he would have before leaving this place. To be honest, those were not thoughts he wanted to have right now.
"Are you nervous?" Katniss took Jacob's cold hand, sharing the warmth of her body.
Jacob placed his other hand over Katniss's and said, "As long as you're here, I won't have any doubts."
It is true that their relationship had cooled down a bit in the last days of the war, but both Jacob and Katniss had a common goal, and they were aware of the responsibilities each of them had. Although they didn't talk much on the battlefield, they would spend hours together after it, simply discussing trivial things.
For Jacob, knowing that Katniss was safe and active was more than enough. His desires were driven by a whim he had developed over the months. He didn't really know if what he felt was love, but maybe that doubt was because his days were numbered.
"We're going to win, Jacob." Katniss had been convinced by Jacob, and she was so attached to him that she trusted every decision he made.
"[Invading Capitol systems, disabling technology-controlled weapons, cutting communications, briefly shutting down the lights of the Capitol, proceeding to invade with mutations!]"
It had begun, Jacob's assistant who had infiltrated the Capitol's network since the first Hunger Games had completely invaded the Capitol's systems. Every technology-controlled weapon had been deactivated and was now under Jacob's absolute control.
As they approached the Capitol, the hovercrafts changed their formation, strategically deploying to surround the target from all angles. The rebels were ready for the assault, with weapons in hand and hearts filled with emotions.
At that moment, Jacob's intelligent assistant took full control of the situation. Its vast tactical knowledge and quick responsiveness allowed the hovercrafts to maneuver with millimeter precision, avoiding the Capitol's defenses and positioning themselves for the attack.
With a single command from the intelligent assistant, the hovercrafts opened fire on the Capitol's defenses. Missiles and projectiles thundered in the sky, illuminating the night with fiery explosions. The Capitol forces responded with anti-aircraft fire, but the agility and skill of the hovercrafts kept them one step ahead.
"[Disabling human-controlled anti-air defenses, proceeding with caution, and sending the rest of the mutated beasts towards the primary defenses of the Capitol!]"
The intelligent assistant continued coordinating the attack, assessing the situation in real-time and adjusting strategies as necessary. The rebels fought with fervor, seizing every opportunity to weaken the Capitol's defenses.
The battle intensified, but the rebels' emotions did not waver. Jacob, accompanied by Katniss, was more than enough to make everyone feel safe. They all had to prove their worth. The ever-present intelligent assistant ensured that every move was calculated and every opportunity maximized.
As the hovercrafts advanced toward the heart of the Capitol, the Capitol's forces found themselves increasingly overwhelmed. The intelligent assistant and the rebels had become an unstoppable force, united in their goal of overthrowing the oppressive regime.
Amidst the chaos and destruction, Jacob raised his voice, his words resonating in the hearts of all the rebels.
"Today, we fight for our freedom! Let nothing stop us on our path to justice and equality! United, we are invincible! Move forward, brothers and sisters, and claim our future!"
The roar of the hovercrafts and the courage of the rebels filled the air as they advanced toward the Capitol, determined to write a new chapter in the history of Panem.
"[Broadcasting message: Anyone in the Capitol forces and residents holding weapons will be eliminated. Surrender, and you will receive a vote of pardon, ensuring your life!]"
At that moment, the hovercraft carrying Jacob seemed to be impacted, causing increased instability.
"[Descending a few meters from President Snow's mansion!]"
"Now, eliminate all enemies!" Jacob shouted at the top of his lungs.
Light had returned to the Capitol, blinding those who had grown accustomed to the darkness and giving Jacob's people a chance to take the lead.
"The rest, follow me. We need to reach President Snow's mansion!" Jacob had no plans to go underground as suggested; entering through that route was a death sentence due to the traps.
Perhaps traps controlled by technology could be stopped, but the more complicated ones like the mutated beasts could not. With this in mind, Jacob, who had attacked the Capitol with mutations, directed his attack in areas where he did not plan to attack with his people.
The objective of this attack was to reach President Snow's mansion, where the old man was located.
"[Peacekeepers approximately thirty meters, turning left!]"
"Targets to the left!" Jacob shouted, then Boggs, who was behind him, took a step forward, followed by several soldiers, and they attacked.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The attack had begun, and chaos had completely taken over the Capitol!
"For freedom!"
Boom!
All the Capitol residents who did not want to be part of this silently awaited the development of this attack. Seeing that the rebels had easily entered the heart of the Capitol, fear gripped them.
Never before, even in the darkest days, had the rebels reached Capitol grounds, demonstrating the brutality and strength with which they came.
