Im not sure how I should start this story.
I didn't know it would end the way it did but im sure after all the pain and the happiness I have finally reached a point of where I should say my life has ended.
Well at least one of the pathways the life always brings you down,
Life is all just a path everyone goes down and no matter what you do you'll always get to the same place as everyone else.
The problem is everyone just walks... Just go down the path and end it.
Most people don't see that they only have one chance and everyone wastes it just trying to fit in and just go through life only to realize that all that was for nothing.
So what am I supposed to do, How am I any different?
Well at least I have acknowledged that life isnt how you seen it its a illusion.
Maybe im just lost in a mist of everything ever but I exist, as a friend of mine said once "I think therefore I am".
I have always had a interest in the other worlds and especially the learning of other lifeforms from those other worlds in my mean time I like to study and create new worlds with virtual reality.
I am interested because it provides a escape a brand new adventure from the normalness and conformity and blindness of society.
Everyone grows up, Goes to school, Then goes off to marry have some kids that will follow the exact footsteps of them then buy a house and every day they go off and just work and when there no longer of any use they are left to retire and are replaced with another strand of robots.
People never take in and question there existence and never take in the creation and destruction and the complexity of things,
Heck even in my years of thinking I am now even more in awe and confused on the grand scheme of things.
I think that the more I know the more I get lost the more the world makes sense but in a way that made it harder but I guess keeping simple makes everything more better.
So why am I telling you this?
I was on the course down a path that life had opened in front of me it was a path less taken by.
This small slice in the grand scheme of things is a story I want to share something that will give something to this thing we call existence something to lean on when the universe goes on and dies,
At least at some point during forever and eternity something happened and so I want to leave a mark I want to tell you my story of... Love. So maybe in this crazy thing of life I can walk down it and remember that mark I made near the path the smells I took in of fresh air and the footsteps I left on the path of life. So where should I begin...
The weather was cold.
The Atmosphere wet and depressive nothing to hold on to,
I am Kepler or if you must know my full name Gliese-Kepler Sound familiar? Thats because it does.
Kepler was the name to a famous astronomer who found out the planetary motions of the worlds near us they were all going on a path.
If you haven't than you must of heard of the planet finder Kepler? It was launched in 2009 in the search of planets that are like our own in other solar systems.
Now Kepler was my last name whats the meaning of my first name Gliese?
Well that's not really a name from a famous person it was a name given to a lot of planets in a star system some twenty light years from our sun that hosts up to three planets like our own so what you got from my name was that im really into space type of stuff if you did assume that than you were right.
I am studying and planning on getting a degree in AstroBiology which is the study of lifeforms outside of earth but also works with looking at worlds just like ours even though they seem so alien like.
Though I am still thinking about taking and getting a degree in Virtual reality game design or more like creating worlds from complete fantasy.
The people around me were almost complete strangers they were people that trained for this mission.
The same mission for which I was training. It was a complete shock when we were picked out for the mission more frustrated and angry than Happy and honored.
Lighting struck outside the windows with a "BOOM" the thunder roared in the distance and thus adding even more of a sad effect to everyone around.
The atmosphere was gray and wet I think the wetness was the rain pushing itself through the top of roof and down on to the floor.
No body said a word the air was dead silent as the world around us and possibility even ourselves.
Everyone had different emotions, some were just starring deep in thought lost in a whole other reality while others were praying to in a last grasp to catch some hope form a higher power if there was such being even if so I dont think it would hear there prays.
Rain poured on the outside of the plane it was usually and calmly soothing the rainy smell gave some sort of feeling to the entire area that spiced it up.
We all were in our army suits the classical green camplaogue clothes the very brief overview of the mission they did give gave me a pretty good idea on why we got these.
My thoughts were confirmed when I looked outside the window the entire land below was filled with dense jungle who knew what creatures were in there.
We all had a bag filled with various survival kits like food and water bottles and other such survival tools to make it through if they if the mission went wrong in anyway.
The people around me were despite being in different states of anxiety and uncertainty all were thinking about the coming events that would come about at anytime now.
I had a standard Black Ar-15 which could switch between fully automatic and semi automatic it came with a scope and the blackness did well in turning the gun invisible cloaking it into the night.
I fiddled with it for a while trying to get my mind off the upcoming events that were soon to come. The thunder boomed once again and rain dropped ever so quietly around us some rain drops hit right on my gun but I didn't care I was already wet every once in a while drops would splash on top of my head or my shoulders and slowly go down my suit.
I glanced at my left and then at my right, Two soldiers one that looked like your classically solder, Sort of strong, and White and on my left as someone who was a bit more weaker than I was and had glasses was sweating or was it rain? I didn't know.
The average strong guy had a Ak 47 leaning on his leg but his hands were preoccupied with handling his combat knife the guy at the left didn't have any gun but due to his appearance he could be a medic or a radio guy of some kind.
All over the plane were people of different colors and genders and personality's some had some Assault rifles like me some had shotguns others had snipers and the types went on and there even different varieties of each kind.
The plane we were sitting in was not your average type of plane, The plane was pretty barren and gloomy on the inside it felt like a empty department store not to mention the rain and thunder and quiet whispering from time to time made the entire atmosphere like something was going to go wrong and the world as we know it would be dead.
Plane seats went all the way across the each walls and no seat was empty every seat had a solider of some kind in it.
As things went along as they have been for the past hour or so until a flash of lighting boomed again but this time new happened, Seemingly out of no where a Guy what appeared to be a general, considering his many ranks and medals he had on his suit and the fact that he looked pretty old about forty or so plus he was very buff.
"In five minutes we will be going over enemy territory if you don't want to go down with this plane I suggest you get your asses ready!" He screamed.
The mission was simple... Get down and take out the target.
For this particular sort of mission we were going to take out the commander of the other side. The other side was of course china the year was 2025 and as everyone had expected, America fell into debt to china and while we had no money to pay it back china after a three year cold war with America invaded a couple of low countries like taiwan I was 20 when it started.
It came about like a domino effect first it was just America Vs china then Russia got involved then Nato soon almost every country was at war, Cites were bombed, Terrorist attacks sky rocketed , The recovering economies of most countries were hit badly with depressions it seemed like this was the end of times.
We did however make a deal with the other countries that no nukes would be used cause even if we did win what would be left to say? "I have it all"?. The sudden movements of people around me interrupted the silence of the trip so far.
People started to talk in confusion and worry, Guns and equipment rattled around it seemed like after a eternity that we would finally be doing something.
I glanced at the two guys at my sides they both stood up the guy on the right put his combat knife away and he picked up his Ak-47 and gave out a loud yawn and stretch and walked over to some other tough looking guys.
The guy on the left put on his backpack and and looked like he was shivering rather through being cold or fear though I had a good idea on what it really was.
I let out a sigh and stood up, I picked up my Ar-15 and hung my backpack over my shoulder I held the rail that was going straight down the middle on the roof of the plane as I saw other people start to do the same. My gun was pointed to the ground and even I started to shake.
There were two other planes at the side of us looking almost identical the same. The talking quieted down and now all that was left was the waiting of the inevitable.
After what felt like a eternity was really just thirty seconds I looked at the clock as it read 3:30 Am but as soon as I turned back to looking in front of me it happened.
A loud explosion right outside my brain completely destroyed the silence of the rain, at first I thought it was the thunder but that soon changed as rapid explosions coming from every single direction out roared the thunder as to almost make it nonexistent.
"EVERYONE GET THE PARCHUTES WE GOT TO JUMP NOW!" The general Roared like the thunder around us.
Chaos completely consumed the plane, Soldiers started to run toward the entrance pushing everyone and loud cries and chatter started to come about.
I looked outside to see the cause of the explosions at the sides the front and behind us loud fireballs stood out the gray and black as they quickly disappeared as quickly they appeared.
As the balls of fire came in and out of existence I soon realized we had to get out of there or else eventuality we would get hit.
Backpacks were being thrown into the crowd of the 100 or so soldiers that were crowding the door that led to the outside.
Suddenly the door opened as quick as a blink of an eye and the howling wind pushed itself , the rain and thunder were now more than ever heard the wind howled in... it felt like there was something unexplained something alien out there.
The explosions were now starting to hurt my ears and the reality of the situation hit me.
"Lets go! Lets go! The general started to yell, in groups of two soldiers at the very front started to jump out and the process was quick every three seconds a new pair of soldiers dropped out into the gray sky and black night.
I looked at the windows next to me and saw that the other planes were doing the same.
I started to push every so slightly the people at the back I quickly apologized and then I ran into around the mid part and saw that the strong guys were at the the very front.
The guy who was right next to me was shaking badly as I also noticed that he was the same guy from my left. Suddenly a loud explosion out competing the rest roared through the air I looked at my right and saw that a large chunk of the plane next to us was blown away and only fire and ash were left.
Some soldiers who I didn't even know were getting sucked out and same flew into the planes engines completely vaporizing them out of existence.
The plane lost control almost immediately and flew straight down toward the jungle below.
I watched in horror as the plane lunched into the darkness below a loud boom leaving behind a burning fire and red being seen very briefly below the darkness and grey. Rain and thunder and bombs were everything I heard we slowly started to reach the very front where the door to the outside was open and rain was pouring into the chaotic insides of the plane.
I Pushed my way as fast as I could past the guys in the middle in wouldn't be long until we were hit by something and my life would end.
I was almost there just a few more... just a few more.. before I was almost at the exit, the rain clawing its way on my face.
A hand suddenly grabbed my shoulder, the sheer force stopped me right in my path.
The hand forced me back and I landed on my backside on the floor I looked up to see that the guy who knocked me down was one of the guys who were tougher than me he then jumped out.
I gritted my teeth in anger before a loud explosion on the side of our plane shaking the plane making a lot of soldiers around me fall.
The windows all broke from the force of the blast, The soldiers distributing fell and the parachuting backpacks spread all over the floor all around them.
I quickly grabbed one of them stood up and ran as fast as I could and ran right outside to my unknown fate.
As soon as I felt the rain in its fullest form and the loud booms of thunder and bombs all around me a explosion came from right behind me.
The air blew through my hair and the cold took its tole on my skin, The rain pushed itself on top of me as well as in front of me as the force of me free falling collective collected on my face and all over my body.
I looked behind on the split second I had left before I plunged into the darkness behind me was a fireball as if god himself had appeared in front of me.
Metal shrapnel from tiny to large flew at sonic speeds all at the sides of me.
My eyes quickly closed at the fireball that was in front of me, I turned myself with my eyes still closed to my free falling body that was still tumbling toward the jungle below. I readjusted my eyes as fast as I could to the darkness and found out that with luck that my parachute was still on. The ropes that were in my reach and pulled as hard as I could. Suddenly without any notice I was thrown straight up, The air was pushed right out of me and I slowly took in large deep breaths.
The free falling stopped and I was not in such a rush anymore but then again there was still a lot more hell coming to me.
I tried the best I could to steer into a relative safe place though as the entire canopy below was just leaves the thought of there being anywhere was getting slim.
The plane or at least half of the plane, I was on just barely a minute ago tumbled just a few meters behind and fell into the jungle below causing a large explosion and fire to light up the jungle below only to be washed away from the heavy downpour that was pouring and taking its toll on the area around.
The bombs around me seemed to be seized and replaced with the thunder from before.
I could barely see clearly within a couple of feet from me, I sighed and took in the rainy air as my lonely companion as I with the rest of life came down toward the jungle below.
As I thought that the thunder and rain had replaced the endless destruction of the bombs only much less loud but they were nonetheless rapid And that didn't even explain the amount of small explosions that came from what seemed like every single place at once made the rate of fire impossible to count.
Then I noticed what was coming up, I made sure that my Ar-15 was firmly fitted and strapped on correctly at the side of my leg. As I took it out and held it in my hands and waited for the fight that was coming up.
Bullets were flying everywhere and hit almost everything. I was glad that I could not see the people near me as I was almost certain that they weren't there anymore.
Yellow streaks of lighting lighted up all around me in various amounts. After a few minutes of bombardment I suddenly saw that I was close enough to the ground to see the jungle I quickly turned myself toward the very tiny spot between each tree which even from this distance was almost not even visible.
I fell down toward the cracks and pushed myself close enough to fall through the leaves and I started to see the bottom floor of the ground.
The thick jungle trees or at least the trunks and the big thick leaves above blocked any sun from above and adding that it was night and grey didn't make it any better, The ground was dirt and grassy with some rivers and swamp like areas around it almost looked like we were somewhere from another world.
I landed into a good spot with dirt surrounding the area I looked around me as I took a moment to breath as I was falling for the past few minutes after composturing myself and standing back up I held the gun in both my hands and looked up to see if any of the people I jumped with were coming down with me.
When I saw none I looked around me and saw something horrible. Dead bodies... they were visible almost in any direction I looked dead bodies or only part of there bodies were laid out in different positions almost all around me.
I resisted the urge to vomit and looked right in front of me. Something was not right, Just a minute ago I was falling to the ground getting shot at and it was raining and thundering now none of the above were true the wind itself seemed to be dead.
Something must of gone wrong when I was falling, something strange was now surrounding me.
I suddenly felt a feeling come up my veins, I started to twitch uncontrollably the land around me started to fuzz out of its state of being.
The reality around me started to fuzz out like static on a tv screen. I fell to the ground with my hands held tightly around my ears, I screamed but nothing was heard. The High static noise felt like it came from everywhere.
I fell to the ground still twitching and my hands still at my ears as the world around me fuzzed into blackness. I then woke up... something had happened...
Submitting artwork or music for this story would be great :) Also tell me what you guys want to happen in this story and also should this be for equestria girls or the regular mlp world? tell me in the reviews. Also this was kinda rushed and i suck at writing battle sciences but hopefully this was good enough. Have a Good rest of your day/night :)
