It happened today. They came and took me away.
They told me I must go through training.
We start tomorrow. They assigned me to a squad
of 10 other strangers. Why must we be at war
and with what? Nobody has any clue what
these creatures are. If we don’t know what
they are then why are we fighting them. Why?

Today was the first day of training. It was hell. The worst thing to ever happen to me. My squad is made up of 6 other 17 year olds and two 28 year olds. The 17 year olds are Nathan, Parker, Rory, Sean, Haley, and Natalie. it’s lights out time. Very strict rules here.
