Introduction
Day 22
It’s been just over three weeks since the invasion started, swarms of troops gathering at Sycott Harbor, according to reports it’s one of five ports captured by the enemy in the South. They’re planning something big we can all feel it; it’s been far too quiet these past few days, no planes or helicopters flying over head to try and relocate our position. Are we thankful? Relieved? No, at least when they were flying overhead we knew they hadn’t found us, the not knowing has caused apprehension to set in, many are filled with dread, I included. But in this situation fear is dangerous; we’re starting to turn on each other, everyone is suspicious of anything and everything making tensions high. What are we to do? There seems to be no one else. Only the ruthless enemy remains, our families are either dead or imprisoned and I’m beginning to think that they are the lucky ones, I hate myself for feeling it, but what we are left with is a fate worse than hell. One thing for sure is that I am not going to sit here any longer and wait for them to come and get us, we have killed them and they have killed some of us, what I’ve turned into doesn’t make me proud but if I’m going down, I’m taking some of them with me.
-Laura Anderson
In a small South Carolina town called, Sycott it is just another ordinary February day for a group of six friends, they attend their local high school when half way through the day the military arrive, the only problem is they are not American soldiers, things quickly turn from bad to worse when the principle is shot in front of the students when he questions what they are doing there. The rest of the enemy soldiers soon open fire on the students, amiss all the chaos the friends manage to escape, driving from house to house to find that their parents are missing or dead. On the road to safety they come across some treacherous paths as they go from innocent high school seniors to battle hardened soldiers as they face the enemy in guerilla warfare as they fight and die to take back what is important to them. Little do they know that it is not only South Carolina which is under attack, but the entire Eastern Seaboard.

She nodded and squeezed Ally's hand as if saying it will be alright. They're right, their farm is way the farthest- there's a big hope that her grandparents are okay.
She stepped forward and waited until Elle got up in the hole.
Setting
0.00 INK
Laura knelt down reaching down into the hole for Ellie's hand "Come one" she stated, upon hearing heavy footsteps in the hall she froze "Fuck" she swore under her breath, standing up and rushing to the door, peaking out of the glass she saw two soldiers walking towards the room, running back over to the hole she picked up the grid and started to put it back on "Get back against the wall" she told her friends before she covered it back over. Standing up she looked around for somewhere to hide, opening a locker she stepped inside closing the door lightly behind her. It wasn't long until the soldiers entered the room, clasping her hand over her mouth Laura felt like crying out, she couldn't remember a time in her life when she had been so scared, she looked out of the small vents at the flash lights illuminating the dark room, she watched as one man stood over the grid and look around the room, his gun pointing at each of the lockers like he was going to fire. Laura's heart beat began to quicken, there was no way that the thin metal which the lockers were made out of could withstand a hail of bullets, if he opened fire she was dead for sure.
Laura heard a voice come over the soldiers radio, unable to understand it, her mind pondered to what he or she could be saying, luckily seemed to order the men to leave he room, letting out a sigh of relief she opened the locker and climbed out rushing over to the grid and once more lifting it off "Okay guys they've gone, now hurry up!"
Setting

She thinks about her parents, had they been able to get away or were they dead like all the other students at her school? No, They will be ok, they probably fled the house as soon as they heard the gunshots coming from the army, ofcourse they had, they wouldnt be dead, they are waiting for me somewhere, they might even have gone to gingers grandparents! The tought calms her down until she hears voices coming from a radio, she listens, trying to figure out which language it was but its almost impossible, it was going to fast and the low for her to understand. She can hear the soldier with the radio mutter something and then foot steps leading away from the spot and Laura opens the grid again. "Okay guys they've gone, now hurry up!"
"I dont mind going faster" She says to nobody in particular, looking at each and one of them, the guys heaving up the girls through the hole one at the time, until it was her go. she goes to jagger and puts her foot in his hands, feeling how her balance is failing her until she's somehow sitting on the floor next to Ginger. "Uhm, one question, how is the last person going to get up the hole?"
Shit.
"Someone could pull them up?" Ellie suggested as she slipped through to the other side. It was a weak suggestion, but a suggetsion none the less. She tried to keep her mind off her parents, but the more she tried not to think about them, the more she -oof
Ellie landed with a slight thump painfully on her back. "I'm okay," she said to no-on in particukar. "In case anyone was wondering." As soon as she was up on her feet again, though, her mind wandered back to the scary subject of her parents lives. Were they dead? No, she refused to believe that. She sat down on the stone ground, and gave a small sigh.

"I'll go up last," he volunteered quietly. "I have long legs and I don't really weigh that much"
He wasnt that muscular. He didn't play much sports. However, he was lean because of the huge amount of time he spent swimming. Xavier was sure he would be able to pull himself up. He looked up at his friends one by one. There was frustration, panic, fear. ... Well of course. It was only natural. But Xavier needed to stay calm. Otherwise his impulsive decisions would get him and maybe his friends killed.

Re: When the War Began.
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
I wouldn't say Japan's army is in this alliance, we protect them so technically all they have is a defense force. Which is pretty much a police force. Personally I'd say the Asian Alliance should consist of China, North Korea, Cambodia and Vietnam. Those guys alone would give the US a run for its money. China has the manpower, NK has the nukes, Cambodia controls the camps and Vietnam is just a jack of all trades. But again that's my opinion.
And lovechanning:
A small town hostage deal would work but they brought in tanks, helicopters, jets, planes. The only way they would get to a town in SC is by jamming all signals. Im sure some military base would notice the jamming and someone would notice the aircraft and naval vessels incoming. Yeah you're right no alliance would take over the states without the rest of the people knowing but an unprecedented attack could create a foothold for an invading country. Once that foothold is there they could stay in the states for as long as their resources hold.
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
Okay now that's cleared up, None of your character can know the scale of this operation or who the invading bodies are.
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
IMO I think it should be North Koreans, Cambodia, Iran, Iraq, Venezula all make an Alliance or something
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
Also, what country or country alliance is attacking us?
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
Calvazara, I vote we should start the attacks now, cause I think we are losing people
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
There are no cell phone signals, on the radio is just static and then just before they show up at the school the power goes out. Hope that helps
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
Have people basically continued life as if nothing happened? Need...more...info! o.o
[Edit] I'm gonna go infer from the posts then :P
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
Re: [OOC] When the War Began.

Re: [OOC] When the War Began.

Re: [OOC] When the War Began.
@Imperial Waltz well I got the idea from Red Dawn and the Tomorrow series and other than the basics (such as the invasion) yet events won't be the same we, it is up to us what we do and the outcomes :)
