[u]The last Stand[/u] [b]“INCOMING!” Someone yells as shells start to rain down on the regiment. The shelling was pretty much routine for the 16th Guardian regiment or the Ironclads, they were positioned at a shopping mall in the center of a city known by the men as the Buried City. For 7 days they have been bombarded, and for 7 days the men were wondering when the enemy will strike. All the men knew they would be fighting the “Fallen”. They couldn’t think of anyone or anything else who would attack them. Or is there? On the 8th of June, the shelling had stopped. The ground that beheld them was scared with craters that could be as deep as 15 feet. The men were worried about what would happen next. A few hours pass and the men are on their guard. They know that an attack is imminent, but they’re not sure who now. They never knew that the “Fallen” could pack such a punch with their artillery. All was silent. The silence was deafening. Someone spots something on the desert horizon. “I’ve spotted something in the dessert sir”. A Hunter shouts out. “Ready your weapons!” The Titan orders. The mysterious figure comes into view. It’s a fellow Guardian. “Stand down, it’s a friendly over there” Says the Titan. But right after he says that, the Guardian is killed by something. Straight after, a massive force emerges from the horizon. “Weapons free!” Shouts the Titan. The regiment didn’t think twice they fire off everything they got on this unknown enemy. They’ve never fought them before and had no knowledge of their strengths and weaknesses. The battle rages for hours. As the dust settles. Corpses lay dead and even wounded. But the corpse at the building adds up to the entire regiment. [/b] Hope you enjoy the read as I enjoyed writing it. Exactly 298 words that was close. =)
