Rather then list all of the names of those drafted within the city I will instead list who is with who. Jounouchi and Seto were in the same squad, Honda was with Marik, and, luckily, Ryou would be with Yugi... for a little while at least. We will also skip over basic training, as that is irrelevant to this tale.
Ryou sighed heavily while throwing his gun down onto the bed. They had been shipped out to their squadron's location that day. Yugi had done quiet well in basic training, he was skilled with the aim of a bullet and was in top physical condition. Ryou hadn't done so badly himself though he was still very worried about the rest of the group.
"Today's the day, Yugi, our first battle," Ryou gave a weak smile. Yugi nodded distantly. 'I know I can shoot it. I know how to aim, I've been trained to kill, I know how.' Yugi paused in his thought. 'I definitely CAN, the question is, WILL I?' Ryou walked up to him and patted him lightly on the shoulder. "Don't worry, we'll be fine, so will the others, I'm sure of it." Yugi returned the slight smile, but in his heart he knew that he would not be able to fight.
Honda flopped onto his cot with a huge grin on his face about three hundred miles away from Ryou and Yugi. "Marik, this is gonna be GREAT!" Marik too was smiling as he lay staring up at the top of the tent. He knew that even though so much was at stake, that didn't mean he couldn't enjoy himself, right? But something was still nagging him.
"I just hope everybody else gets out of here." Marik said blankly
Honda tried averting the subject away from their friends.
"C'mon, don't worry about them they'll be fine. Plus, today we actually get to fight! We'll show these idiots whose boss. I mean no one messes with us and gets away with it!" He struck a joking battle pose and he and Marik laughed lightly. It didn't seem SO bad here.
And about two hundred miles South of Marik and Honda, Jounouchi Katsuya and Seto Kaiba had just arrived at their positions as well. Jou jumped around excitedly. "Yes, yes, yes! Now we get to turn mentally deranged, cover the walls in perverted calendars and pictures, and listen to weird war music late into the night!!!" Seto grabbed his shirt collar.
"We haven't got TIME for that you idiot! And besides, where do you plan on getting all of that anyway?"
"Well, I don't know about the music but," Jou grinned evilly and pulled his bag which was stuffed full of.interesting photographs and magazine cutouts.
"Oh, good GOD, Mutt, give me that!" He snatched the bag and threw it into another near by tent.
"HEY!!! Whyd you go and do that?"
"If we're caught with any of that we'll be more busted then you've ever been before. Trust me, you do NOT want to be a troublemaker in this place." Jounouchi muttered in annoyance. 'Stupid Kaiba.I hate him, if only I had gotten to go with Yugi or Honda." his thought was paused when Seto suddenly had his gun out and was aiming at something outside.
"Okay, what are ya doin NOW!?"
"Shhh! Something is out there." Seto continued aiming out something shifting in the surrounding woods when suddenly another group of people from their own army walked into the clearing. Seto angrily threw his gun down as Jounouchi laughed hysterically.
"HA!!! Looks like SOMEBODY'S paranoid." Jou said as his laughter subsided
"Shut up Mutt." he muttered. The voice of their sergeant called from out side. The two emerged from the tent and so did a few others from surrounding tents. "Our mission begins tomorrow. Keep a sharp eye; these jungles are loaded with enemy trap. You must be able to watch everything at all angles, fail and you will surely die. Good Luck soldiers!" They saluted their sergeant. Tomorrow was the beginning for them, but the beginning was even closer for those several hundred miles away.
