Third P.O.V

Walking home mindlessly he passes the early risers and opening of various shops,to anyone passing Y/n he'd look as if he's dead on the inside,but in reality he's reminiscing on the year's before the wave hit humanity,looking back on it the wave did humanity a favor people were worse than ever and crime was at an all time high with 47% of humanity either in prison or criminals committing various crimes,leaving the rest to fight in WW3 and stay at home taking care of the next generation.

Although humanity was at an all time low he still wished that there were more humans alive,because interacting with either a talking squid or talking octopus really didn't soothe the nerves,also who knows what the general population would do if they found out he was human,they might burn him at the stake or torture him for info you never really know with them.

Y/n P.O.V

Walking towards the house I'm thinking back on what I was doing before the wave,what I saw and survived I never wish to see again,and would never wish what I saw upon any one soul not even the worst people that have ever lived.

Flashback Start

Looking around me all I can see is dead land and bodies,land so grey it gives the color a new meaning no other color besides the blood that covers everyone's dead body,bodies scattered all around me that range from child soldiers to men that look to be in there 80s brutalized by war limbs blown off,getting unlucky and getting caught without your gas mask melting from the inside by the poisonous and toxic air,struck down by machine guns or exposed to snipers that pick you off one by one until your the last one in your squad.

Its depressing really while I'm out here fighting tooth and nail for my country there are people out there who disrespect the work I do,saying "oh its wrong to kill they have lives too" well news flash we're at war I don't have the time to think about their families because I'm just trying to get back home to mine its not like I want to do this,looking up at the sky its covered in smoke so black you'd lose your sense of time it'd be midday but you'd think its night because of the smoke.

Peeking my head over the trench I'm laying in covered and hidden by the bodies and blood of the people around me,I see the enemies in the other trench start to march over to our side quickly hunkering back down below the bodies I wait In silence and slow my breathing hoping I'm not found or heard,listening closely I hear voices approaching.

[Disclaimer I used German for this conversation ahead I'll translate under each sentence so you can read it]

"Markieren Sie, wie Sie sich über all dies fühlen"

[mark how do you feel about all of this]

"Es fühlt sich überhaupt nicht richtig an. Ich meine, warum machen wir das"

[it doesn't feel right at all I mean why are we doing this]

"Ich hörte, wie ein Höherer etwas über Rache für die germanische Heimat sagte"

[I overheard a higher up saying something about revenge for the germanic homeland]

"Es ist sowieso nicht so, als hätten wir eine Wahl, lasst uns einfach nicht klagen und es tun"

[its not like we had a choice anyway let's just not complain and do it]

Listing closely I try to make out what they're saying but I get nothing it sounds to me as of they're speaking German but,I'm not positive watching them walk past me I hear other conversations as more men walk past me,hearing a tank start to approach I watch as it rolls over my head the treads dropping more mud in the trench.

I've been waiting for a while now standing up I feel my legs go numb looking over the battlefield It looks exactly the same as when,I looked at it before grabbing my gun and shovel I stand up and climb out of the trench walking forwards,I slowly trudge through the dead land wanting to cry I remember Mom's homemade chocolate fudge and all the happy time that I've had before the war feeling a drop of rain,I look up to see a cloud black as night looking back down I fall backwards as my legs give out underneath me.

Staring at the sky I think to myself 'why did this have to happen' closing my eyes I feel the rain start to get heavy regaining the feeling in my legs I turn over and lift my self up looking towards the area the army marched I start to trudge that way but not before spotting a green speck on the ground in front of me leaning down I spot a 57 leaf clover taking and putting it in my breast pocket I think to myself 'is this some sort of divine intervention' I ask myself 'or am I just lucky' looking forwards he burns with an overwhelming hatred for the enemy force and he vows to himself "I will kill every one in that damned platoon even if it kills me".

Flashback End

Y/n P.O.V

Reaching the door I open ot and walk inside passing Marie's room and entering mine I collapse on the bed and close my eyes hoping to get some sleep in my schedule.

Dream Start

Jolting up I look around noticing that I'm in a familiar room but I can't quite place why its familiar hearing mom call me for breakfast I open my door and walk down the stairs watching my little brother run past me in a hurry "I'm gonna beat you down stairs" he yells out as he runs past me hearing dads voice he tells me "you better hurry now he'll beat you if you don't hurry I'll grab your sister" he teases looking towards the stairs I look to see him already running down breaking into a sprint I catch up quite fast being right behind him I yell out "I'm on your tail you better speed up" but I slow down slightly so he wins "well looks like you beat me" I cry out acting sad while he looks at me smugly "hah I beat you finally how does that feel old man" he replies proudly "alright I'll admit you won but come on you young whipper snapper we gotta eat breakfast" I respond in an old man voice walking towards the table.

I watch mom set out All our plates sitting in my chair I look over and see Daniel basically vacuuming his food up "oi slow down before you choke" I tell him he looks at me for a second before slowing down grabbing my fork I start to eat,hearing dad walk in I look over to see Emily eating her hand or atleast attempting to looking back forward I continue eating quickly finishing I see mom walk towards me with my backpack "so you just not gonna give me a hug before you go" she says "alright I am" I respond before walking towards her and grabbing my backpack and putting it on my back and hugging mom walking towards the door I yell out "I'm leaving for school now bue old man I'll see you later little Dan and Emi" I finish before walking out of the door being blinded by light.

Dream End

Opening my eyes I look over at the clock to notice its almost midday sitting up I smell food cooking getting out of bed I walk towards my door and start my routine.
