Yes, yes I know. Another rewrite. Honestly, after being absent for so long, I don't really remember what I was going with it, so hopefully, this is gonna be the last one if I don't go out for cigarettes again and never come back.

PvZ: Total War

Chapter 1: Totaler Krieg

Anyone could be evil if they wanted to. Everybody has the capacity to hate that is different from person to person. Some people are naturally caring and lack the capacity to hate, others have an innate impulse to hate. A drive to hate fueled by the individual's willpower to obtain satisfaction. To find the meaning in the suffering they inflicted and achieve a form of peace. Zomboss is one of these people. He strived to get revenge on the Plants who 30 years ago inflicted the same hate on him and his people. To put it simple, he definitely achieved his goal. Zomboss leads an empire that spanned continents and had an army that numbered in the tens of millions. He made and still makes the Plants suffer for their alleged crimes by the annihilation of their species altogether. His dream that not long ago seemed impossible, was now fulfilled. The only obstacle in his way was an ocean away. The lone continent of America. Formerly controlled by Humans, now controlled by Plants, was the bastion of the free world. For Zomboss to achieve total victory he would have to crush them too and finish off the Plant race for good. Only one thing was certain now. This victory, if obtained, would not be the pushover wars of before. It would be brutal. It would be a Total War

The streets of Suburbia were quiet and empty. Devoid of any life that once flowed through the roads of the sleepy town. Buildings sat empty and abandoned. Vines and branches overtook the owners as the only living creatures inhabiting the houses and stores that littered the streets. Nobody was out shopping, playing, socializing with each other, enjoying each other. The only life left was the occasional rat or dog searching for food. The only noise being the quiet noise of gunshots and explosions far away.

Sitting alone on a bench was Peashooter, feeling empty as he gazed at once was his home.

Peashooter had served in Europe during the conquests of France and Britain, he knew what a ghost town looked like. But seeing his home like this saddened him to his core.

"Hey Peashooter, what's going on?"

It was Walnut, one of Peashooter's close friends. Walnut was always a happy-go-lucky person. Even though many of his friends died he didn't see the point of being sad, always looking forward until he found the happiness he desired. Everybody would be cheered up by Walnut just being near in the vicinity. Peashooter was no exception.

"Oh, nothing. I'm just remembering stuff". Peashooter exclaimed.

Walnut, for a brief moment, thought about his friends that weren't with him now to talk to him. For a brief moment, his plastered smile faded a little bit, but it was back before Peashooter noticed.

"Sunflower wanted me to tell you that she wants to know if your okay or not, you've been out for almost four hours now if my memory serves me correctly!' Walnut chuckled a little bit.

Peashooter cocked his head up, surprised.

"I'm fine, I guess. Tell her I'll be back in a few minutes". Peashooters face warmed up a little bit as he thought about Sunflower and how much she cared for him. He stood up from his chair and hugged Walnut before walking back to L.E.A.F with him.

When they got back Repeater was there to greet them and the three went through the big, metallic doors of the L.E.A.F complex.

"Where were you Peater? We were worried we lost you out there". Repeater said.

Peashooter sighed.

"I was hanging out near the park for a bit, I needed some fresh air". Peashooter exclaimed in a soft tone.

"I'm not sure you need four hours to get some air but to each their own, I guess" Repeater replied.

Peashooter passed his friends and comrades and walked back to his spot in the barracks. Sunflower was looking out a window when he came in. She flipped her head around and smiled when she saw him.

"Finally, you're back!" she cooed.

Peashooter smiled back and they hugged for a bit.

"I was sooooo worried about you out there! Don't do that to me again, alright?" She said jokingly.

"Yeah, yeah I'm sorry. But you know how I am these days Sunflower". Peashooter slugged off his heavy rifle and uniform and laid on his makeshift bed. Sunflower joined him.

"What were you doing while I was gone?" Peashooter asked.

"Just caring to the seedlings, wounded. You know, normal stuff."

"Huh"

Peashooter thought about his past experiences up to now. The friends he lost, the new ones he made, the scars of combat, and smiled. Even in times like these, he could still experience brief happiness like did back in his youth.

"Sunflower, I think I'm gonna go to bed".

"What? B-but you just got back here, why now?" She said distressed.

"I'm sorry, it's just I've had a bad day. I promise tomorrow Il be better".

"Fine, but promise me tomorrow you won't make me deal with Commando alone alright?" She laughed.

Peashooter chuckled and turned off the small oil lamp next to him. Maybe this war wasn't all bad after all, for now.
