《The French Conflict》Chapter 1: The Beginning of a Big Conflict
Advertisement
A gun fires, a cannon destroys a house, people scream.
I stand amidst the chaos with a confused look.
People are dying all around me, I look around and see an empty field with houses here and there. I look into the distance, I see a village.
Right when I confirmed that it really was a village in the distance a stray bullet almost hits me, but by the skin of my teeth I dodged it.
I stand confused and terrified but there's no time for that so I run to cover.
A soldier approaches me he suddenly starts speaking
"What are you doing!? Go and Fight!"
Is that French!? But I don't speak it, how could I understand what he said then?
I start speaking "Excuse m-" Oh my god, I just said something in French. But I have never taken French classes, in school I have Spanish. What the hell is happening?
The soldier runs away prepared for battle.
I guess I'll have to figure out what's happening later, right now I have to fight. It seems as though I'm on France's side in some conflict.
I rise up and rush towards the other side, Maybe I could try sneaking around them and attack from behind while they're distracted. I don't really want to fight and I certainly do not want to kill somebody, I might lose my sanity in that case, I could just knock them unconscious and let someone else finish the job I guess.
I lay on the ground to start crawling towards the enemies.
The tension is high as I crawl, at any moment I could be discovered and that would be the end of me.
While I'm crawling I try remembering what I did before "this". I remember that I was in school, specifically a history class I think. We were talking about something and I felt dizzy so I went to the toilet to freshen up, I can't remember any more than that.
I crawl slowly and eventually enter a house.
I hear some footsteps in the distance, I slow down and try to locate them.
I see someone's back in the distance, This is my chance!
I run as fast as I can and try to drop kick the person.

But it failed, the person turns around and looks me in the eye, I get a very surprised look. The person grabs my legs in the air.
He uses the momentum I built up and throws me with a lot of strength into a wall, The pain I felt was like nothing before, I almost passed out.
The person moves towards me, but weirdly slow.
I look up and feel some blood running down my cheek.
I'm exhausted but I have to get up and win, otherwise, I'm gone from this world.
I gather some energy and stand up, I start running and gather all my strength into one punch and throws it at the guy.
BOOM,
The guy grabs my fist and punches me in the stomach, I cough up blood.
I have to think fast or I'm screwed, I try to analyze the situation.
If I don't do anything best case scenario he'll have me captured as a war prisoner, worst case scenario he'll kill me right here on the spot.
The person grabs my collar and hoists it, I try to identify him but I can't see his face everything has become so blurry.
Damnit! If I could just somehow get out of here. The guy starts talking
"ho-ho-hoo, well well well, What do you think you're doing, sneaking up on the general like this?"
Shit, is this the enemy general!?
I glance down and sees his medals and sure enough, he's a general.
Now when I think about it, it sounds like this guy is speaking German or something similar.
A conflict where France and a German-speaking nation is at war. It couldn't be WW2, That's too modern. I don't think it's WW1 either, what could it be?
Think, I have to think, something a long time ago... At that moment it all made sense, This is the Napoleonic wars! The weapons they use, swords and guns. This option makes the most sense.
That means this guy's probably from Austria. The guy pushes me into the wall behind me and continues
"Looks like I'm going to have to teach you how to play nicely".
He took up his arm and started strangling me. I tried to struggle but I could barely do that. I could see half of his face, He made an evil grin and said

"What are you going to do!? You're gonna die at this rate, heheheheheeeee"
That line pissed me off a lot, but I couldn't do anything.
My vision started going dark, I guess it's my time to go. Too bad I had so many things to do and dreams to accomplish, but I would at least die struggling and with hope.
KABOOOOOOOOM. The roof of the house flew off and a loud explosion followed, The explosion was so strong that the Austrian General lost his grip and fell down.
I was so surprised, Yeah I can't die like this!
With new determination and hope I started running, the fastest I have ever.
My hate for the general who almost took my life away from me burned stronger than the explosion that had helped me survive.
I was determined to defeat the general that had taken my hope and will to live away from me for a couple of minutes.
I didn't have the time nor the strength to do it right now, The Austrian soldiers stormed the remains of the house that once existed, One caught eye of me and started shooting at me.
But I was rescued by a squad of French soldiers who had rushed towards the explosion to investigate if there were any survivors.
In the middle of all this, I had lost my gun, I searched around and found one on the ground.
I picked it up and looked out towards the vast battlefield, it seems as though an Austrian cannon had shot the house for whatever reason.
Did they not know that their own General was inside of it?
The only thing keeping me from collapsing and maybe dying was the big amount of Adrenaline pumping through me.
I went around the house to help that French squadron by attacking the Austrian's flank. After I would fire some shots to throw them off I would run away to safety.
I crept around the corner and snuck a peek. I heard
"General, We need to retreat! French reinforcements are coming in larger numbers!" An Austrian soldier said to the general
"We can't retreat! My target just slipped away, He's an important piece in this war! -----" The general said but I couldn't hear the last part because of the loud noises that the guns firing made.
I decided that I would shoot now. I reluctantly took aim with the gun and closed my eyes and took a shot.
"OOOOOOOOOOOOUCH" Is what I heard directly after that
"Shit, they're attacking our flank! Fall back" The general said with an extremely angry expression
I felt very bad about shooting that person. But for the victory, it had to be done.
The French started had started an assault that was very successful, the enemy was forced to retreat.
We had won
Everybody was celebrating the victory out on the battlefield, But I was scarred from the recent events. Barely having escaped death and being saved by a machine made to kill, Having gravely injured a person for the first time in my life, This was a big mess for me. After all this, I still had one unanswered question in my head
"Why and How did I get to the Napoleonic wars?"
Had I time-traveled to the beginning of the 19th century or is this one big elaborate joke. Either way, I had to find a way to get back to my home. But for now, I had to go with the flow and blend in for a while.
I rushed around the house to see if the French squadron who had saved me was okay, I turned the corner where the hole of the explosion was.
I saw five people, 3 women, and 2 men. Now when I thought about it, I think I saw a lot of women on the battlefield today. Maybe this is an alternate version of History and the Napoleonic wars.
"Hey, are you guys okay?" I exclaimed
"Yeah, We're fine, How about you?" A rather tall girl said
I moved towards them and said
"Yeah, I'm okay noo-" I couldn't even finish the sentence, The adrenaline in my body had stopped and I fell down on the ground.
"Hey! What're you doing!? Wa------" Is the last thing I heard before losing consciousness.
