It all started on a normal day, that began as any other day. Gumball stretch as he awoke in his bed, next to him was Darwin who was still asleep in his fish bowl. He smiled to himself, he would have never made it through the past couple of weeks without him. A war was raging between the allied and axis forces. Many people of Elmore were recruited for the allied forces. Many of the adults were taken such as Mr. small, principal brown, and even his father. When the letter came in the mail that Richard was being drafted every one was dumb struck even Richard. He had left a couple of weeks ago and they received letters from him every now and then but it was still pretty hard without him. Gumball sighed he missed him, but he couldn't worry about that now he had to get ready for school, he hated it but even when their was a full blown war going on only a couple hundred miles from Elmore. Gumball got dressed and he walked down the stairs to eat breakfast. When he got down stairs he saw his mother making his breakfast.
"good morning" she sniffled
"morning mom you okay" asked gumball concerned
"yeah I'm fine" she said dabbing an eye with some tissue.
Gumball decided not to ask any further, so he just ate his breakfast and waited for Darwin to go to the bus stop. Gumball tried to act like the war wasn't happening like other people did but it was hard to talk to people without mentioning the war in some way. The bus ride to school was a relatively quiet one. The silence was broken when gumball stepped off the bus, he heard a low droning noise and looked up. He saw what looked like planes fly over head, at first he didn't think much of it probably an allied practice run, but as he heard explosions and felt the ground rumble he knew that Elmore was under attack.
Sorry, I know this is extremely short but I am new to this and will try to make up for the short chapters by posting new ones sooner. any ideas are welcome.
