Pickle Crisis

Post by Mrqwerty »

A short film

Outside the great city, five oversized, giant pickles were spotted. After attempting to make peaceful contact failed, the only thing left to do was to fight...

The oversized pickles summoned smaller minion pickles which overwhelmed the forces at first.
After multiple failed artillery barrages, the forces called in some air support.

The choppers failed to take down the giant pickles, but destroyed some minions. Unfortunately, one helicopter was downed (black hawk down..).

With the arrival of better forces, things started to turn against the pickles.

Within hours, one of the giant pickles was destroyed.

With another artillery barrage, some of the minion pickles were forced into retreat

The forces rolled in and the minion pickles didn't have a chance..

Within minutes, two more pickles were destroyed due to the uselessness of the minions, and the last two pickles surrendered. (The one being surrounded surrendered last)

Now, the battlefield is cleared, the battle won. All thats left is a memorial...

Another Short Film (slightly longer)

Pickle Crisis 2: The Rise

Six months after the first pickle outbreak outside the city, another one occurred just south of the city.
Screenshot_20200304-180930.jpg
Forces were dispatched again, underestimating the new pickles
Screenshot_20200304-181215.jpg
But these pickles could move and devoured the army in minutes.
Screenshot_20200304-181512.jpg
The pickles moved their way to the Itaam mountains, just outside the city.
Screenshot_20200304-182000.jpg
The mountains did act as a defense. The pickles could reach the city only by going through the Itaam Pass, less than a kilometer away from the city.
To stop the pickles from entering the city, a large missile was launched

To the surprise of the army, the rocket did nothing to stop the pickles from reaching the pass.
More forces scrambled to defend the pass from the pickles.
Screenshot_20200304-182815.jpg
The pickles grouped together to try to push through the pass.
Screenshot_20200304-183137.jpg
The pickles pushed through the first line of defense within hours as more troops were sent to defend the pass.
Screenshot_20200304-183446.jpg
The mayor ordered for the southern part of the city to be evacuated.
Screenshot_20200304-181645.jpg
Overwhelmed, the city officials called upon the great Ancient Bear.
Screenshot_20200304-184426.jpg
The Bear agreed to send his soldiers, but Itaam Pass must be defended for three more hours before the bear's guards could arrive. So many forces were sent to defend before the bears arrive.
Screenshot_20200304-183931.jpg
The forces couldn't hold any longer.
Screenshot_20200304-184342.jpg
Suddenly, the bear army arrived, two hours early. "Well, i guess we're here early" said the bear captain, "we finished lunch faster than i expected".
Screenshot_20200304-184842.jpg
But even the bears struggled to hold the pass from the pickle minions.

At last one pickle was destroyed by one lucky shot of artillery.

Part 2

Outside the battlefield, more bears are armed and ready to fight.
Screenshot_20200304-185731.jpg
The bears charge the pickle offensive while the human forces support the bears.
Screenshot_20200304-185853.jpg
After about an hour, with many casualties, the pickles surrendered to their bear enemies.
Screenshot_20200304-190202.jpg
The surrendered pickles promised not to attack again in exchange for freedom and mercy. The humans and the bears agreed, and the giant pickles descended down deep into the ground, never seen again.
The humans and the bears made an agreement to support each other, in problems and wars. And with the Treaty of Peenut, the pickles cannot invade the city, and the pickles must give some land over to the humans and the bears. In turn, the humans/bears should pay $100 million to Pickleland.
The humans and the bears that fought were rallied up for a salute.
Screenshot_20200304-190609.jpg
At last, the humans built a memorial in the pass to remember their bear friends who help save Peenut City from the hands of the evil pickles.
