I don't know, I guess I've been in the mood to write depressing stuff, so, here's another one.
"Isaac, go to bed." Malcom said. I turned to look at him, drenched in sweat, "Just 5 more rounds." "You said that 20 rounds ago!" he reminded me, "Fine." I said, setting down my sword. He helped me remove my armor and then sent me to bed. "We're 4 HOURS past curfew man, why were you training so late?" "Reasons." I said, and he didn't press, smart boy. It was the Fourth of July, always hated that holiday. First off, I was in the army trying to prevent that from ever happening, second, fireworks. I don't know if you know much about me, but explosions...mess with me. I crawled into my bunk and instantly passed out, who knew being in full armor and fighting a dummy for hours would make you tired? Now, as you know, demigods have dreams, this one...it wasn't good. It started off with a rumbling, then a roar, and as I began to see things, I was face-down in the sand. I could hear, no, not just hear, FEEL the explosions around me. I gripped my rifle tighter, it was about to get ugly. The explosions stopped, and then the gunfire began. I knelt behind my sandbag and began firing. The tearing sound of the MG-42's was comforting, the screaming of the dead and dying was not. I could understand all of the words being shouted as the men below me were hit, cries for their mothers, wives, sweethearts, even to god. I was told to run some ammo down to the machine guns. Whoever knew that June 6th would haunt me forever? The firefight went on for a few hours, but the American advance was unstoppable. I heard my officer scream, "Isaac! Man that machine gun!" I dashed off to where it was, and found it on the wall next to the mutilated body of Wilhelm. I grabbed it from him and went to the firing pit. Loading a new clip, I began to rain all hell down on those Yanks. I began to attract fire, but I didn't care, all I had to do was keep them pinned until our Panzers arrived
