The Art of War is an ancient Chinese military treatise attributed to Sun Tzu, a high-ranking military general, strategist and tactician. The text is composed of 13 chapters, each of which is devoted to one aspect of warfare. It is commonly known to be the definitive work on military strategy and tactics of its time. It has been the most famous and influential of China's Seven Military Classics, and "for the last two thousand years it remained the most important military treatise in Asia, where even the common people knew it by name."

"Ever heard of Sun Tzu?" She asked, eyeing him carefully. He looked up, thought for a moment before replying. "Yes. He was the guy that wrote 'Sun Tzu's Art Of War wasn't he?" The girl smiled. "Well yes, that's correct. But screw him, he knows nothing about war. If there was anyone who did, it's me. And I'm gonna let those bastards know who they're fucking with." ******************************************* In the late 2300s, the United States government declared war on China to reclaim the last of Earth's natural resources. The war lasted years and in 2375, China became a nuclear wasteland, forcing the Mass China Evacuation to take place. Millions of people were evacuated to neighboring countries such as Indonesia and Japan. The story revolves around four Chinese teenagers, who's family and country was brutally taken away from them. Their decision was to save the last of their people and reclaim what was theirs from the Americans. And maybe, just maybe, things aren't what they seem. After all, war is just like a game, it depends on how well you play it, and how many tricks you have up your sleeves. {science fiction #14} {warning: sensitive content and swearing and violence and injuries that can go pretty descriptive. Basically all war content is found. Don't go calling me racist. You have been warned.}
