A new series called Gears of Survival

Preview of Chapter 1 Nightfall

What was becoming of this world Marcus laid in bed thinking to himself alone in a quiet dark room which was the most common place this war-torn Gear could be found…alone, but shouldn't he be out partying and celebrating the end of this wretched war you asked? Potentially but there was too much pain inside him…too much regret, what he'd done and what he should've done during the war will haunt him forever, he should've been there more for Dom he thought to himself his thoughts slowly loomed off towards his father Adam Fenix he immediately regretted now being around his father enough and taking him for granted something he would never do again. His thoughts were interrupted when there was a knock at his door "I'm busy" he yelled but the knocking persisted he finally opened it to find Cole "AYYY BABY YOU GOTS TO GET DOWN HERE MAN WE GOT BACON AND EVERYTHING YOU BETTER HURRY THOUGH CARMINE'S GOING ALL IN HAHA" the large gear shouted with enthusiasm and laughter but that was all cut short when Marcus broke the mood "Listen Cole thanks for checking up on me but I'll pass" he said in a gruff annoyed voice "alright suit yo self stay tight baby" Cole said in a much quieter voice this time and left the room as he was closing the door Marcus quickly changed his mind "wait Cole on second thought I'll come" Marcus said in a defeated voice "Good" Cole shouted "Cause some people are getting a little too close to Anya now that you're not there" Cole said. This got Marcus pissed Anya was his counterpart she had been through just as much as he had and those fucking stranded weren't worthy of her time "Ayy Marcus Baby just don't storm the place take it easy aight" Cole said cautiously, he knew he shouldn't have said but if Marcus saw without any warning he probably would have gone back to his room and came back down with his lancer and started spraying everywhere regardless of how many children were there they headed towards elevator. It was different to be back on land everything felt so peaceful, he looked out a window and saw a Billboard sign that said "Building the New Ephyra you deserve" and all around the building they were in were buildings and skyscrapers being constructed and within weeks there would be an entirely newly renovated city the thought of this was crazy just two weeks after the war and already the population was rising and humanity was starting to flourish again just then as the elevator doors opened standing in the center was Baird himself he looked so different Marcus thought to himself "Never took as a suit-wearing guy" Marcus remarked Baird then proceeded to make a sarcastic comment then following up with "So you coming or not you're making Anya look bad"
