On April 24, 2004, an impossible archway opened on the South Lawn of the White House. What followed wasn't a clean invasion or a neat first contact; it was chaos, confusion, and a brutal fight for survival as soldiers faced enemies that shouldn't exist and weapons that didn't obey familiar rules. Staff Sergeant Michael Alvarez, a D.C. National Guard MP, survives Day Zero by performing his trained duty: maintaining the line. But when the smoke clears, the gate doesn't close, and the world doesn't get answers. As the U.S. government locks down the truth and builds a permanent foothold around the anomaly, something becomes clear: the Gate is not a temporary crisis.
