The year is 2025, and as far as I'm aware I am the last human. The problem first started in the year 2015. When earth's scientists managed to make a portal.

To where we do not know, but it must have been similar to our Earth. Cause these anthropomorphic creatures came through. They spoke the same languages as us. It's too bad all the government's of Earth fired first.

Once we fired first, their invasion began. The portal is located in germany. In less than a year they took over the country. The world tried to nuke it, but they had ways to counter that.

In the following four years they had taken over europe. The three largest counties launched a full scale attack. The loss of lives measured in the millions.

For propaganda we took to calling them furries. In the years that followed, we humans chose death before surrender. Now I am the last human, and the enemy wants me alive.

My name is Allen Tagert, and I was a private in the military. This is my story as The Last Human.

Present Time

I keep crouched near the rubble to avoid being spotted. I'm currently in ruins of a small town. Trying to gather food to survive. I can't hunt since any gunfire draws attention.

Upon reaching the store I hear a helicopter. I quickly duck inside to avoid them. My hope was quickly torn apart, by the sound of it landing.

I take up a defensive position near the back door. Soon I hear a door being kicked in. "You sure this is where command said they spotted the human?" a voice asked.

"Our scouts spotted the human in the area, and since no gunshots have been heard. This is the only way they can get food. Now everyone be on guard their most likely armed." another voice ordered.

Seeing no way to take them on I choose the door. I try to open it quietly, but it gave out a loud creak. Realizing they must have heard I slam it open, and run.

Gunfire erupts from the doorway. I go to a crouch, and return fire. Once I suppressed them I keep running. Then I hear the helicopter spin up. I'm only thirty meters from the tree line, when pain erupts in my leg.

I hit the ground, and look at my leg. A small hole, the idiots were using full metal jacket. Turning as best I could I open fire. Once the mags empty I bind my leg quickly, and keep going. I make it to the tree line, and keep going.

I reach cave, and take shelter inside. I don't hear any movement outside the cave. I unbind my leg, and reclean then wrap it in gauze. Once I finish I hear footsteps heading my way. I check my ammo only to see I'm empty.

I pull out my last bullet that I saved for myself. I load it into my pistol, but as I put it to my temple a fist hits my face.

??? POV

Our scouts spotted the ghost, and now we're going to bring them in. We load up into the chopper ready for dust off. "Command this is pack one we're en route to target. Over." Veronica told command.

"Roger pack one. Inform us when the target is in custody. Over." they replied.

"Hey captain. What if this human opens fire?" I ask.

"Well sargent. If that happens we shoot to incapacitate. Another thing do not let this human kill themself. Private Dom, and corporal Rita will be running point. Remember team this human is the last one. So no kill shots, alright let's go." she told us.

We took off heading towards an old town. The trip took about ten minutes to reach the town. We landed next to an abandoned store. We hopped out of the chopper, and walked to the doors. Our heavy Dom kicked in the doors.

"You sure this is where command said they spotted the human?" Rita asked.

"Our scouts spotted the human in the area, and since no gunshots have been heard. This is the only way they can get food. Now everyone be on guard their most likely armed." captain answered.

We suddenly heard a door creak in the back. Then the door was slammed open. Rita opens fire at the door, but the human was already outside. As I reach the door bullets rip through it.

When the gunfire stops I look only to see them running. "Helo one dust off get us eyes in the sky." I radio. I take aim with my sniper rifle, and fire. The bullet hit it's mark right in the leg.

I have to quickly take cover as they open fire. When it stops I check again only to see them bind their leg. They take off towards the woods. I Sprint after them into the woods.

I track them to a cave, and find them putting a pistol their head. I charge forward, and punch their face. The pistol fell from their hand. They recovered quickly, and swept my legs.

Once on the ground I tried to restrain them. As I was grappling I rubbed some of their face paint off. Getting a good look at their face I see it's a guy. He looked like he's in his twenties.

As I was distracted he landed a hit on my face. The hit dazed me, and he took off.

Allen POV

I managed to daze the furry, and now I'm running. I don't have anything to defend myself. As I'm limp running, I hear the furry charging my way. I try to keep going, but I realize it's futile. I pull out my knife hoping to cut off my bandage.

If I can cut it off I might just bleed out. The bandage falls off as I'm tackled. The last thing I remember is the room going black.
