President Lincoln is in danger. It turns out his death will make him a martyr and thus Hollywood can make a lot of movies and historians write a lot of bestselling books about him. In order to keep that legacy going, he has been targeted for Termination.
Thankfully the Time Enforcement Commission has learned of this dastardly plot and are sending an elite team of guardians back in time to protect the President. They know a successful operation will result in President Lincoln establishing a Presidential Security mandate for the Secret Service he just founded and the TEC needs those monies.
Oh and because it's the right thing to do... or whatever.
However... Big Media has sent back their own elite team of hunters to frag the President. Disney has purchased the right to Fox Entertainment and now controls the Predator franchise and thus dispatched a team of elite Yautja hunters back in time to off the President since it's pretty clear John Wilkes Booth won't be up to par.
President Lincoln's New Presidential Security Detail:
T-800 (The Terminator): The Original Terminator from the 1984 movie is going to be sent back in time but due to lack of advanced programming, has only been programmed to hunt down any potential assassins (starting with John Wilkes Booth and moving on down as well as any new threats that pop up) to President instead of protecting him because protecting him would probably result in more needless friendly casualties then sending him off to kill any potential assassins.
"Uncle Bob" (Terminator 2): The T-800 from Terminator 2 with memories of Terminator 2 intact for whatever reason, has been sent back as an actual protector to President Lincoln but with secondary objectives of protecting Lincoln's family and a tertiary objective of protecting General Grant (and other VIPs).
T-850 (Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines): The T-850 from Terminator 3 also shows up with the same mandate to protect the President and the secondary objective of protecting Lincoln's family and General Grant (and other VIPs). Anger is more useful then despair.
"Pops" (Terminator: Genisys): A T-800 who once had been living on Earth from 1973 through to 2017 and a surrogate Father to the lame Emilia Clarke version of Sarah Connor, he's been instructed to protect President Lincoln and his family and General Grant (and other VIPs) despite being a little old in the gears by now. He agrees.
"Carl" (Terminator: Dork Fate): A fifth and FINAL T-800 model will be sent back to protect the President. Since he's overriden his programming as well like Pops to a degree, he's been convinced to help protect the President and his family and General Grant from these unknown assassins.
Notes: The Terminators are sent back in time naked, so no cool weapons. They can only use weapons and gear they can find in the Spring of 1865.
Terminators have no knowledge (beyond the historical assassination) of whom they will be facing except that the new assassins will likely be far more formidable and advanced then anyone could reasonably expect in the mid-19th century.
The Assassins:
Promised a hunt like no other by the Disney Executives, the following Predators have been sent back in time to assassinate the President. They have no knowledge of the Terminators but have been promised a most challenging hunt. Their main target is President Lincoln, with secondary targets being General Ulysses S. Grant and tertiary targets being President Lincoln's family... because the greater the tragedy, the greater the media sales. Other targets of opportunity include Vice President Andrew Johnson and Secretary of State William H. Seward. And they will slay their targets (with noted exceptions below) regardless of whether they are armed or not.
Jungle Hunter (The Predator): The original Yautja of the Jungle. According to semi-canon sources he's more experienced and veteran then later Predators and thus will go into battle with less weapons as per the film. He's armed with his wristblades, shoulder cannon, cloaking device and that light bomb as a final FU.
City Hunter (Predator 2): The Predator from the second film. He's supposedly less experienced and thus better equipped. He's armed with the aforementioned gear as above but also includes a combistick, net launcher, and frisbee of death. Won't kill kids or pregnantpeople ladies though, so that's nice.
Wolf (Aliens v. Predator 2): What's the best way to quarantine an outbreak? Send one Predator with only the weapons to engage targets one at a time in an urban environment! Wolf Predator has had shit jobs before... so this should be nothing new for him. In addition to the previous equipment he's also armed with a plasma pistol and *sighs* a razor whip made out of a Xenos tail, and a shuriken instead of a smart disc... because why the hell not I guess. Oh and some laser mines.
(The following three Predators will not work with the above three Predators because they are rival clans. They won't seek to fight each other but they ain't going to help each other)
Tracker (Predators): Tracker Predator will be armed with a shoulder cannon/plasma caster, as well as a whistle from which he can command a quartet of HELL HOUNDS/Predator Doggos which help him hunt down stuff and act as bullet sponges. He's also equipped with a sword sized wristblade which he can also launch at targets (presumably as a last resort).
Falconer (Predators): Equipped like his Tracker companion, the Falconer also has a technological bird/drone that he uses to help track his prey. He also never turns down a proper and fair honorable one on one duel.
Berserker (Predators): The leader of the edgy trio of 'Super-Predators' the Berserker predator is the biggest member of the bunch. Like his Clan brothers, he's armed with the scimitar sized wristblade but his shoulder cannon is even more advanced in that it is actually a rotary/gatling style plasmacaster capable of even more rapid fire and targeting. Very honorable.
I know what your asking? What about the Predators from the latest movie? Again... I have no idea what your talking about. The latest Predator movie was Predators. Also 'Scar' the Predator from the first AvP movie... he's getting plastic surgery to fix his ugly (for a yautja) face so he's not going to show up.
The Terminators will show up at the stroke of midnight in the early morning of April 14th 1865 in various secluded locations in or around Washington D.C. with knowledge of the other Terminators arrivals and same mission. With the exception of the original T-800 whose going to go off to find John Wilkes Booth and blow him away, the other Terminators can work together.
The Predators will show up at sunset on the outskirts of Washington D.C. with the description of their targets and that they'll be at Ford Theater in a few hours.
Will President Lincoln be saved?
Will the Predators collect some new metal skulls?
Will Washington DC be wiped out by a light bomb detonation?
Will John Frederick Parker, whose duty it was to protect the President that evening, do anything useful?
Will John Wilkes Booth and his co-conspirators defeat the original T-800 and thus prevent him from helping his metal brethren?
