I can't remember a time before the beasts came to our planet. Their presence has plagued the districts since I was an infant. I grew up watching the war from my backyard, there is no safe place here. All we can do is continue our daily lives and support the fight against them to the best of our abilities.
That's what I want to do, I want to fight. About 17 years ago our government hired my father to create large man operated weapons that could be used in battle, he created what we now call Belli Apparatus' or in English, War Machines. Giant metal humanoid robots with weapons stored in their bodies.
After they perfected my father's prototype they enlisted 100 men and women to pilot the machines. In order to qualify you have to be a high school graduate with an IQ above 130.
Sadly when they did the first enlistment I was only six years old but there are rumors of a second enlistment coming soon and now that I have graduated high school I qualify to be a pilot.
Being the son of the creator it's practically assured that I will be picked. I have complete confidence that not only will my father support my decision, but he will also send in a recommendation.
After all, he is my father, I grew up under his influence. Through his guidance, I have become who I am today. Honestly, I don't see how he could not be a part of this when he is the reason these machines exist.
