New York City, USA- 12:30 PM

Life in the big city started as usual, The streets were lined with taxis, people filled the sidewalks in a hustle, and the subways came and went. Oh yes it was a typical day in the Big Apple...Or so we thought. Not long after noon, the skies darkened. Many denizens figured it was about to rain and simply took out their umbrellas...Well they were half right. It did rain, but not rain drops, oh no, it rained green shots, from flying objects descending from space.

Suddenly this typical day turned into one of sheer horror as more and more UFOs began to rain hell on the defenseless city. Citizens now panicked, running to avoid the shots fired, and the streets echoed with the screams terrified. It had seemed that Armageddon had began at last.

Arlington County, USA- 12:45 PM

It wasn't long at all that news of the invasion spread to the Department of Defense at the Pentagon. At that moment a panicked soldier rushed to deliver the news of an alien invasion to General Lovecraft.

"General Lovecraft!" The frantic little man said, still struggling to catch his breath.

General Lovecraft was a stern man in his 60s. He had a large across the bridge of his nose and stripes of grey on the top of his head. He had been in the service since his 20s and had even served in World War I. At this point in his life nothing seemed to surprise him.

"What is it soldier?" Lovecraft responded hardly acknowledging his presents.

"Sir, we have an emergency on our hands."

At this point Lovecraft finally turned to face the soldier as he handed him a folder containing an incident report. Lovecraft snatched it as he began to flip through.

"UFOs in New York?"

Surely this had to be some sort of joke, the General thought. I mean that was stuff you'd only hear in science fiction.

"Uh General..."

The General looked up from the folder to a soldier standing in front of a monitor.

"You might want to see this..."

General Lovecraft's eyes widened as he watched the newscast on the screen before him.

The newscaster spook frantically

"This is the scene across the world as UFOs have filled the skies all over the Earth."

The scene shifted to Paris, France, now in flames.

"From streets of Paris..."

It shifted again this time to Tokyo, Japan, now under siege.

"To Japan..."

Then it shifted to a familiar scene in New York City.

"To even the USA..."

The General could hardly believe his eyes.

"At this rate the end of the world may be sooner than we think!"

"My God men..." Lovecraft said, his eyes still glued to the screen.

"Yes sir?"

"I believe we have just entered a war..."
