2270 Warfare Academy

Generations into the future technology has evolved but not like you'd think...
2040 is the year they've marked in the history books as the true beginning of World War III. Across the nations conflicts had been brewing, with every world super power made to take a side.
Over the years the government had poured every dollar into funding warfare advancements to get the edge against the enemy, but the rest of the world was always quick to follow suit. Over a few decades the economy began to crash, and by 2270 the free market economy that the United States so knew and loved became completely nonexistent. In these days, and in the generations before, the government had been paying families to send their children off to academies in order to train for specialized warfare. There were no schools, no grocery stores, no public services for anyone. The streets were desolate and overgrown. Cities run amok with renegades. There was only farming, looking out for your own, and bartering and selling, or else buying supplies directly from the government. In these times, you only had two choices, obey the government and fight for your country, or join a renegade gang and face becoming a federal enemy.
This story follows the experience of a young recruit Micah and her experiences joining the warfare academy for the first time. Accompanied by her older brother Ashton, who's about in a years time about ready to graduate, and play his part in the real war effort.
