Lifetime Rating for ZergGoneMad: 6.0000 |  | “Simulation over” “Finally” I said taking off my helmet. We were doing a two week simulated survival course. “I only got hit once,” my friend Weston, said. “Twice for me,” I said. “Ha! Ha! You got hit twice, I got hit once,” he said mockingly. “At leased I didn’t have a giant rock land on my chest and almost kill me!” I said laughing. “Lets just go to debriefing.” “OK” Weston said
“You all did very well” are commander said “Except for Weston’s rock incident, you did almost perfect, for that you deserve a week of R&R, dismissed”
“Brett, hey Brett,” Weston said. “What,” I said. “What to go to the gym and shoot some hoops,” he said. “No I got to take a shower and shave,” I said “Well you’re going to have to take a shower afterwards and I think you look better with a beard anyway,” He said. “You’re right” I said “just let me get my jersey,” I’m pretty good at basketball because I’m tall, but I can’t shoot at all so I mainly rebound, lay-up, and dunk it. I got to be a team captain so I choose Weston and some other good people. It was a fun game, the play of the game was when my team stole the ball passed it to me and I slam it at the buzzer and won the game 102-103.
“Yea! We won!” I said to Weston “Now lets go to the barracks, take a shower, shave and go to the game room” “OK” he said. As I was walking to the barracks I ran into my girlfriend, Joan Ryan, she was the reason I joined the war. One day she came up to me and said “Brett I’m going to fight in the war as a medic,” I knew I couldn’t let her go so I joined the war as a marine, just so I could be with her. I would have rather bin a Wraith pilot or a tank driver but I choose to be with her instead.
“Hi” she said “Hi, what are you doing tonight?” I asked her “I have to go to a medical class,” she said. “Are you going to be free any time this week?” I said “No” she said “Well I got to go” “As soon as this war is over I’m going to marry you,” I thought to myself.
As I got in the shower I started to think to myself, “Why are we fighting this war? Where fighting this war? Where fighting for a barren rock that’s temperature is 300 degrees F. it’s atmostsphere is carbon mioxide. The only reason we are fighting for this planet is because it’s the best source of vespeion gas and minerals in the galaxy. Oh well.” I shave, man it felt good to shave.
I went to the game room and saw Weston, he was playing my favorite game, ”Carnevil.” “Hey” Weston said, “over here” I went over there and slipped a game token in the machine and started playing. An evil clown popped up and I shot it straight in the head. “Nice shot” Weston said.
All of the sudden warning lights went off and the speakers said, “Warning all personnel get in your combat suit with live ammo and go to your dropships this is not a drill.” “Crap, lets go” I shouted. I got in my suit and grabbed my gun and ran to my dropship.
“Are you ready to take off,” the pilot said. “Yea,” I said back. I felt the ship take off. I looked around, there were me, Weston, Joan, 2 firebats, and 3 marines in the ship. “Crap, we’re taking ground fire,” the pilot said. All of the sudden a spine from a hydralisk penetrated the hull and bounced around and nailed a marine in the heart. Blood splattered on my visor “Joan see if he is alive,” I said, wiping my visor clean. “No,” she said “died instantly.” Right after I said that red acid type stuff started to drip thought the hull. “Were going down!” the pilot said, “crash positions!” I felt the plane start to descend. “Ohhhhhhhhhh craaaaaaaaaaaaaap!” Weston said. Then my life started to flash before my eyes, my first fight with a bully, (which I won), my first time I saw Joan, my first kiss, then I realized that I have to live. Then we hit the ground, a big hole got ripped in the ship where I was sitting and I fell out of the ship and rolled. “Good thing I’m wearing this suit,” I thought as I ran into a rock. I saw the ship crash into a roc k and blow up into a ball of fire. “Oh no,” I said starting to cry. Then I saw Joan, Weston, and a marine run out of the ship carrying the emergency supply kit. “Where are the other guys,” I shouted. “Dead,” Weston said “They were knocked out and burned to death,” the marine said. “Now what?” Joan said. “Let me see a map with the bases on it,” I said “look, there is a base about 50 miles from here” I said. BOOOOOOOM the firebats fuel tanks exploded sending shrapnel everywhere. “I’m hit!” I shouted. “Where!” Joan said. “In the shoulder.” I said. “I’m going to pull it out,” Joan said. I groaned in pain as she pulled it out. “I’m going to give you some pain relievers” she said. “Why didn’t you do that before?” I said weakly. “What’s your name?” Weston said to the marine. “Nick,” he said. We all introduced are selves. “Well we better get going,” I said getting up. “Yeah, lets go,” Weston said. We walked for about a hour before we stopped for the night. We found a cave to spend the night in and went to sleep.
In the morning we were all hungry but we couldn’t take off are suits so we had a problem. Then I figured out we could put stomach acids in the inject in to us we would feel hungry but we wouldn’t die. We could drink water through a tube in are suit.
“Well, lets get going,” Nick said. “Ok,” I said moving my arm shoulder. “Are you feeling better?” Joan asked. “Yeah,” I said. We started walking, talking, making jokes, and singing along the way. We stopped to eat and I took a map reading, we had walk about ten miles in two days. “We have about 4-5 days till we get to the base,” I said. “We have about 3-4 days of food” Joan said. “One sec don’t we have to go over Mt. Trevor,” Weston said. “Mt. Trevor is a giant active volcano we would have to walk around it and that is another day,” I said. “If we could get some zerg we could eat them,” Nick said. “Lets get going,” Joan said.
One day as we were over a hill we found some zerg “Yes!” Nick said “If we could shoot some are food problem would be over” “Ok we shoot on three,” I said “1,2,3.” 5 inch slugs fired at hypersonic speeds penetrated the hides of the zerg dropping them quickly. “Yes, food” Nick said. We went down there and found that we had and found that we had killed 7 of the creatures. “Well lets start gutting them,” I said. 3 days later when we were walking Nick said, “I see something.” I turned on my binoculars “It looks like a base,” I said. “What are we waiting for? Lets go!” Weston said
30 minutes later we were at the main gate of the base banging at the it. “Who is it,” said the guard. “Private Brett, Weston, Joan, and Nick,” I said “Ok, come in,”
he said. They took us to the debriefing room and the commander came in and started to ask us questions. “Where did you come from?” He asked. “We were from training base B they told us to E-vac and we got shot down and walked here,” I said. “We don’t know why they told us to E-vac,” Weston added. “Your base was overran by zerg,” the commander said “Follow the guy outside and he will we show you to you room.”
When I got to my room I saw that they had put food in there, I was famished, I started eating, after I had eaten I took a shower and started to think about the crash and wondered how I survived and how Joan, Weston, and Nick survived. As I was getting dressed, I heard a knock at the door “One second,” I said then walked and opened the door. “Hi,” Weston said “I came her to talk to you about something,” “What is it,” I said “We can go home,” he said. “How!?” I said. “According to G.I. law 845-83 it states any G.I. shot down in enemy territory can go home,” he said “but it will take transports 5 hours to get here” “I got to go,” I said “I have to find Joan” “Go get her,” Weston said. I ran to Joan’s room and knock on the door “Who is it,” she said. “Brett,” I said back. She opened the door “Joan we can go home,” I said. “How?” she asked “It’s a law,” I said “We can go home.” “Ok,” she said “lets go home.” “It will take transports 5 hours to get here,” I said. “I can wait,” she said.
“Alert, Alert, base is under attack.” “Crap not again,” I said I ran and got in my suit and ran to a firing hole. I saw hundreds of dog-like zerglings running towards our base. I started firing zergling after zergling fell. Siege tank rounds blew up in their ranks. Wraiths fly in and shoot their lasers. Firebats run in and incinerate the zerg, and through it all I still shot at the zerg. The zerg were climbing over bodies making them easy targets.
4 hours later the battle was over. We lost 45 people they lost 4,500. “Joan, Joan,” I said. “Over here,” she said. I’m so glad you’re all right,” I said. “I’m so glad you’re all right,” she said. “Lets go inside,” I said. “When are you going to ask her,” Weston said. “Soon I’m waiting for the right time,” I said. We went inside I told Joan to meet me in the mess hall in 30 minutes. I took a shower shaved and went to the mess hall. I saw Joan sitting at a table I went over there and sat down. “Hi,” Joan said “you wanted to see me about something?” “Yeah,” I said. I got down on knee and said “Will you marry me?” “Say yes!!!!” everyone in the mess said. “Of coarse I will,” Joan said. I put the ring on her finger. “Good for you Brett,” Weston said. “Way to go,” Nick said. Everyone in the mess hall was cheering. The end
