Subject: Advance Wars prologue
Prologue:
The Black Hole troops' bullets were shredding through Green Earth forces, yet nary a casualty was seen on the opposing side, bullet's ricocheting off of rocks and tree's, Green Earth's forces were completely outmanoeuvred. It was a overcast day, it would rain later on for certain, but for now, Eagle's mind was completely on the task at hand. Black holes forces suddenly charged into the open, cutting a gap right through the middle of his forces. Eagles troops fought bravely, but the enemy seemed to be able to take more punishment than ever, even while a black wind ripped through the battlefield. It flowed over the water, through the mountains, striking at whatever enemy it could see. Eagle knew of this power, he has had to deal with it in the past. This battle was over.
Lieutenant Blain already knew the order was coming before he heard it. He was gathering the remaining troops under his command in this congested area of the forest when Black Hole troops opened fire from seeming nowhere, he was surrounded already and had no idea how. Spotting an enemy crouched behind a rock, his bullets left his enemies blood painting the gray granite red. 4 bullets sliced through his only corporal's chest, and he fell over in a heap, blood leaking from his mouth, convulsing violently. No time to help, he had to get his men out of here, those who were still alive.
Lash jumped into the air gleefully as she watched the rest of the Greens forces retreating through the forest, still being gunned down in the process. This was perfect terrain for her troops, a valley filled with little else than forest and surrounded by mountains on all sides, yes this would be the location of the laboratory. "Why do you think they were defending this crummy old valley so hard anyways?" she directed at Hawke. He glanced at her sullenly "Hmmm, I wonder". "What is that supposed to mean?" Lash responded curiously, blinking up at the tall man who was staring off into the distance, apparently his mind was on something else. Hawke's white streaked, jet black hair seemed to stand out in this overcast whether. She admired him, he always seemed to look out for her. She rested her gaze back on the valley, arms crossed and contemplated her surroundings, there were countless pillars of smoking rising from the forested area beneath the hill she was based on, gunshots and the occasional explosion could still be heard in the distance, although much less frequent than they were 5 minutes ago. She smiled and turned her back, walking slowly down the other side of the hill, Hawke watched her as she left.
