Prologue
On February 1, 3023 a United Nations world summit was held in New York City. The meeting was about the planned colonization of Venus. At approximately 2:34 PM, several nuclear devices were detonated inside of the city. With most of the world leaders dead, many nationalists took over during the power vacuum. With the world thrown into disarray, war broke out over issues long forgotten. Russia demanded that the United States return Alaska to its rightful owners, a new aggressive Swiss government annexed Austria, China invaded Mongolia, Korea broke into civil war, and India and Pakistan were thrown into nuclear war. With the world in chaos, people who had the money evacuated to the colonies on the Moon and Mars. Those left took up arms for their country. All alliances where nothing, all friendships nullified, and the end imminent.

I am a killer. My father was a soldier. My grandfather was a warrior. My brothers were marines, but I am a killer.
Its my first battle since being drafted into the Army and I'm already on a highway to hell. We are fighting for control of Zurich, said to be the new financial capital of the world. As I sit up here in a mountain cave, my fellow countrymen risk their lives fighting the enemy, while I sit in a cave, leisurely killing people with my rifle, knowing they in no way can fight back. Every time I peer down my scope I see men pushing forward, fighting for their country, desperately shooting at the men behind the sandbags, not knowing that the real threat is behind them, inside the mountains. A tear trickles from my eye every time I pull the trigger, but I must for I have a country to fight for. Another one. Another human being. Ruthlessly gunned down by a murderer in the mountains. I reload my gun, slowly as to try to allow my victims to live extra seconds longer. I again peer down my scope and see bravery, courage, and death. All in the name of their country.
My commander just informed me of a priority target. The enemy commanders are having a meeting in an abandoned church known as the Grossmunster. I adjust my view and aim a the church. Watching, waiting for one of their commanders to wander into view so that I may strike down yet another soul. There's one! I steady my aim, increase my scopes magnification and. Dead. My 20th kill today.

I awoke this morning to the sound of a massive explosion. As I stumbled outside of my cave I could no longer see Zurich nor the lake it was built around. In fact nothing was visible outside of my cave. It would appear as if the entire world was obscured by dust. I was still groggy when I heard my radio talking. It was command. I responded with a polite "what the hell was that!!!!" they replied "we're going to your position for extraction". I repeat my statement and was met with silence.

I waited and watched as the smoke cleared and saw stunned people stumbling around the streets covered in dust. Many of them took several steps before falling over and presumably die. I look through my scope to get a better view and I can see one of the spires of the Grossmunster, and next to it destruction. Every other building has been reduced to rubble, I can see a tank sized hole in the roof of the train station. As more of the dust clears I can now see ground zero, a crater the size of a football stadium frozen solid and one thought came into my mind. Nitrogen Bomb. A weapon that utilizes liquid nitrogen to freeze everything within two miles of the crater. Now that the dust is settling, I can see the two armies, frozen solid. Some of them looking as if they were still fighting. I knew that the battle of Zurich was over. Now I can hear a helicopter coming closer probably to take me to another area of the world to kill.
