Jake Smith wakes up, blonde hair, blue eyes, skinny, fifteen year old Jake. It's Monday and he'd be walking to school. He'd heard of that evil nation, The Germans. Jake would get very anger whenever he heres that that Axis win a battle. I wish in every god damned way I could go up to that man and slowly end him, Jake thought. Jake gets to class quite late and finds that nobody is in class. That'd mean that there is an assembly going on downstairs. Jake would walk out the class, through the wooden hallway, down the squeaky steps and into the gym where the assembly was held.
"I shall call out a random birth date. If you have that birth date, you will come and follow me!" Is what a U.S Marine soldier had told the students in his mean, deep voice right as Jake got down to the gym to regroup with his class "December 3rd, 1901!" A boy with light brown hair and green eyes would stand up, confused and scared as he followed one of the Marine soldiers out of the school into the bus. "November 2nd, 1898!" A redheaded girl with blue eyes stood up and followed another Marine soldier. "May 3rd, 1901!" Jakes eyes instantly widened, his heartbeat got higher, seconds felt like minutes. Jakes classmates stared at him as he got up and followed the soldier into a bus, confused with other boys and girls in the bus, about fifty of them ranging from the ages thirteen to twenty.
Jake and the others were greeted by a thirty something real old man with his U.S Marine soldier uniform. "Hello everybody. The name is First Sergeant, Chris Robeson." Everybody looked at him in confusion. "You kids, are now considered to be Trainees for the military." Everyone starts gasping, heck a few even started crying! But Jake. Jake was looking down, giving a creepy grin. I finally get the chance to go out to the battlefield and destroy those motherfuckers that killed my grandparents, Jake thought with anger running through his blood and his heartbeat going higher and higher as the bus leaves to go to the military training.
