- — In-Game Description
Operation: Sky Fire was a Live Event in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It was the concluding Live Event for Chapter 2: Season 7, which was the Imagined Order's counterattack on The Last Reality.
Buildup[]
In Week 8, a Mole in the Imagined Order began spreading classified information to the public. Doctor Slone directed The Looper to uncover more about “The Mole”. This led to the findings that The Last Reality was able to impersonate anyone whatsoever.
In Week 12, Slone wants The Looper to finish setting up the Countermeasure Devices in Corny Complex to take down The Mothership when Corny Complex is abducted. In the next Week, Marigold instructs The Looper to rat out “The Mole”. In Week 14, it is finally revealed that Maven was “The Mole” who was spreading the information. In the meantime, Countermeasure Devices are being setup in chunks of the land of Corny Complex as The Mothership slowly moves towards Corny Complex.
The Mothership was then currently abducting Corny Complex and players could see the full abduction begin once the Live Event began.
Event Summary[]
Thirty minutes before the operation begins, the Mothership begins to beam up several small fragments of the Battle Royale island. Doctor Slone has secretly planted bombs on each of these islands in hopes that they would be enough to destroy the Mothership once they are beamed in. When the operation begins, the Mothership begins to beam the operation participants on the islands aboard.
In a moment's notice, players suddenly come to wearing the Abduction minigame backpacks and are imprisoned in holding cells aboard the ship. Doctor Slone then hacks the backpacks and uses them to hack the cell doors open, expressing surprise that the aliens did not arm the participants as they always did, hinting that they had already discovered Dr.Slone plans. She assures the players that she will help them escape captivity. The freed players then race through the halls of the Mothership, taking care not to draw the attention of patrolling alien troops. However, while crossing a bridge, they are suddenly spotted. The players rush to another room and are pinned down defenselessly by enemy fire from the troopers, before Doctor Slone hacks the door ahead to seal them off. She then works on hacking another door that opens to a transport tube to continue their escape route. Though she notes that it is unsafe for organics, players take it anyway to stay one step ahead of the aliens.
Doctor Slone continues to lead the players through the mothership and into the main abduction chamber, going through another transport tube in the process. They finally enter a room with a shallow pool of purple liquid and large glass windows providing a clear view of the bomb-laden island chunks that have just been abducted by the mothership. With the bombs in place, Doctor Slone begins the arming process, but the arming signal is cut off when the windows are suddenly shuttered. After a moment of brief darkness, the Cube suddenly emerges from the pool on the floor, shocking Doctor Slone, who states that she thought the Cube was destroyed for good during Season 6. The Cube unleashes powerful blasts of energy to knock out some participants, Doctor Slone then weaponize the players backpacks, using them to unleash a powerful energy wave that made the cube unable to attack, rendering it Grey. The windows are opened again and Doctor Slone resumes the arming sequence.
With the arming sequence successful, the bombs are now set to blow in a few minutes. Doctor Slone praises the Loopers for doing their part, but then proceeds to tell them that she will not allow them to leave the ship in hope that the Cube won't come back to the island, leaving them to die along with the Cube and the aliens. As the countdown sequence resumes, players discover that they can reboot the Cube, turning it blue. Doing so causes the platform they're standing to function as an elevator ascending further into the mothership as the countdown continues. The platform emerges in a giant chamber storing thousands of dormant Corruption Cubes and a Golden Cube. The countdown ends with the entire mothership exploding, causing players to tumble back out into the sky, plummeting back to the island. The protagonist watches as debris and cubes rain down onto the map, causing devastation, before they are hit by a falling Abductor.

|---|---|
| Welcome to the operation! | |
| The aliens are about to start their biggest abduction yet. | |
| What they don't know is that we've attached explosives to all their targets. | |
| You're going to ride along with the bombs and make sure they do their jobs. | |
| Okay, here we go. Hold tight! | |
| I'll be in touch once you're all on board. |
| Subtitle | Audio |
|---|---|
| They didn't arm you... | |
| And troops are everywhere. | |
| They might be onto us. | |
| I found the abduction chamber housing the bombs. | |
| Once this patrol passes, I'll get you out of here. | |
| Okay, go! We don't have much time. | |
| I'm gonna find you a path around the patrols. | |
| Watch out for each other. | |
| If you get seen, we're done. | |
| When you get to the security door, stand by. | |
| Enemy craft ahead, but they're passing by. | |
| I'll open the door once it's clear. | |
| Okay, they're gone. Give me a moment. | |
| Come on... come on... | |
| I got it. Let's go! |
| Subtitle | Audio |
|---|---|
| If you get seen, get across the bridge as quickly as you can. | |
| You've been spotten! Keep moving! | |
| Hostiles ahead! | |
| Watch out! | |
| I've sealed them in. | |
| Okay, give me a second to think... | |
| There's a transport tube up ahead. That may work. | |
| There! that transport tube will get you past their patrols. | |
| These aren't intended for organics. | |
| Let's hope that's not an issue. | |
| We seem to be safe... | |
| For now... | |
| Stay alert. | |
| There should be another transport tube ahead. | |
| Looks like I'll have to reverse the airflow. | |
| Give me a moment. | |
| Okay, hold on. | |
| Just need to... | |
| Okay, and then... | |
| And done. Get in the tubes. | |
| This will take you right to the abduction chamber. |
| Subtitle | Audio |
|---|---|
| Oh, good. The bombs are in place. | |
| I'll get things ready on my end. | |
| You keep those backpacks near the bombs. | |
| Okay, I'm gonna start the arming sequence. | |
| Wait, what's happening? | |
| The signal was cut off! | |
| I'll figure this out. | |
| Just stay alive! |
| Subtitle | Audio |
|---|---|
| This...is impossible. | |
| We thought it was gone for good! | |
| Last time it nearly destroyed the Island! | |
| Okay. We need to hit this thing hard and fast! | |
| I need to weaponize your packs. | |
| Brace yourselves! | |
| Get to the windows! | |
| We have to arm those bombs NOW! | |
| Arming sequence is good. | |
| Almost there... | |
| And we're done! | |
| You played your part. | |
| Now I have to play mine. | |
| We are fighting a war in which we're hopelessly outgunned. | |
| I won't bring you home. | |
| Not if there is a chance that... thing... can make it back to the Island. | |
| Over... and out. |
