This is the story of Sierra Zero-Three-Eight aka Matt-038, the fearless SPARTAN-II supersoldier & marksman who will do anything to protect his family and friends. But can he do it?

This is purely fanfiction. I've set this story in a timeline that does not clash with the movies or any of the expanded universe. It has been a thousand years since the Jedi returned and Galactic Empire was defeated. The Sith have been destroyed and sent back to the shadows of the galaxy. The Jedi have regained power and help the republic maintain the piece in the way of things. It has been years since a war has been fought. All seems to be at peace in public's eyes. But tensions are rising. People are beginning to resent the governing of the Republic. Riots and strikes are breaking out in the outer rim and are slowly rising elsewhere. The Jedi are frequently called upon to maintain order, but there seems to be imbalance in the force. More unrest rises on Coruscant as the Jedi feel an immense amount of power suddenly rise in the force. A mother holds her child, the young boy's power uncomprehended. The Jedi council feels his power and debates the best way to deal with it...

This is a short story I made a while back. It is made of all real places I have been and people I have known. It follows me in the zombie apocalypse trying to complete a complete a mission. I find and lose old friends. I visit and leave places I have called home. I struggle with the aspect of Kill or be Killed. Please enjoy.
