War!
Standing not knowing what might happen next waiting for the next shot not knowing where it will come from then you here it and see the man beside you fall down praying and thanking god that it was not you then you fell a sharp pain and look down to see your foot gushing with blood
you fall to the ground and the air starts to fill with smoke men fall one by one to the ground it is chaos as you struggle to get up you suddenly stop as a body falls beside you
you look around and realize you will not make it if you don't get out
finally you are no longer on field
when you look up you realize there is nothing around you but smoke you try to make out where everything is but you see nothing then you see your fellow brothers on the field and soon realize you must save them soon it is all over and you have won! you thank god that you are still alive
