❤️Blood and trigger warnings❤️
Sam's P.O.V
I wake up to some rustling to my right. I rub my eyes and get up. I look around and see Britta lying on the ground. "It'll only take a minute" I think. I hear the rustling again and decide to investigate. "Hello?" I ask. I see a flash of green for a second and get even more curious. I step into the bushes and ask again "is anyone there?"
All of the sudden I feel a hand on my mouth forbidding me to scream. I hear a rough voice hiss "shut up" I wimper not knowing what else to do. "I said, shut up" I feel a sharp pain in my leg and feel warm blood ooz from it. Tears brim on my eyes as the voice talks to his accomplices. I don't comprehend what's their saying. My mind is going fuzzy. I hear other people talking in the distance. They must of heard hem to because all of a sudden I'm let go by my captors. They run as I stumble out of the bushes.
I see a blur of blond and brown. A boy with messy brown hair comes up to me and slings my arm around his shoulder, his hand on my waist. I see the blonde one pick up Britta bridal style. My eyes widen when I see what he's doing. "No, Britta" I try to wiggle out of the boy's grasp. He holds on to me and yells to the blonde "Tommy, stay with us. She's a little slow" He points to me. The blond- Tommy, nods and waits for us to catch up. When we do he keeps walking.
About fifteen minutes into our decent my head starts to bang. I start leaning on the boy, who's name I learned was Toby (we got to know each other a lot, and honestly, he's pretty cute). I finally decide to speak up and ask "d-do you have any water?" Toby stops his conversation and turns to me. "Uh yeah" he digs around in his bag for a little until he pulls out a bottle. "Here". He sets me down to lean on an acea tree. He tells Tommy to take a break for a little. I slowly slip down the rough bark to sit down. As I sip the water I feel my eyelids grow heavy. Eventually, I fall asleep.

I wake up for the second time today to chatter. I blink my eyes open and look around. I realize that I'm laying in a small bed in the middle of a some sort of trailer. I push the covers off of me and stand up. My leg is bandaged although it didn't seem that bad earlier. I limp out of the small room into a bigger one where I see four boys, including Toby and Tommy. Three girls, and... a furry? Britta turns around and sees me. She smiles and waves me over. I do as she says and walk over. She whispers to me "you see the guy with the beanie?" I nod and she continues "Lily is totally simping over him" I laugh out loud causing everyone to look at me.
Toby is the first to react. He puts his hand on my arm and says, "are you feeling better?" My breath hitches and I blush. "Uh, yeah, thanks." He nods and turns and back to talking to beanie guy.
Lily hugs me and whispers, "simp" I pull back and boop her nose. "I could say the same for you beanie girl!"

Humanity's End
Given a year to prepare by the mysterious ‘system’ for contact with the wider galaxy, humanity must work to ensure the Earth’s defense is ready to meet any challenge. Sadly, most of the world seems dedicated to tearing itself apart as the year-end deadline gets closer. The west is in barely contained Chaos, while the east descends into internal conflict and war. The Pillar Forts, one of the few successful projects of the United Nations headed by the United States, stand ready to defend humanity against any invasion that may come through the strange Connection Pillars that appeared on each continent. Massive steel and stone walls that surround the Connection Pillars. They are filled with deadly men and women trained in all manner of warfare, each trained in the newly acquired System with skills and magical abilities that they put to deadly purpose. Beside these brave warriors, tanks, helicopters, artillery and more stand ready to defend humanity at each of these powerful installations. But, can they overcome the disparity in levels and experience between themselves and the forces that threaten them and the rest of humanity? Main Characters Jessica Brown- A young African American girl. Her 18th birthday in Detroit was the same day the systems message appeared. She discovered she was Level 7, much higher than most of the rest of the world. Why she is blessed, or cursed, with the power she doesn’t know. But what she does know is that she rather likes the feeling that comes with manipulating magic. The week after her birthday, government workers started testing every person in the US in a massive census effort of skills and abilities. Jessica Brown found herself conscripted into the US Magical Corp, a new branch of the US Military, and shipped off to a Pillar Fort. Somewhere hot and muggy in her ancestors’ home of Africa. As she grows stronger, she finds she has some connection to the pillars. While everyone else sees beauty or danger when they look at the pillars, after connection is made all Jessica can see is a Tree. A tree the size of the entire universe. Isaka Smith - is a third generation American and farmer who just wants to be left alone. But she is dragged into the situation by events beyond her control. When people in her small town had to deal with rioters and looters after the system announcement, she rallied them to defend themselves, earning her a trait that the government found extraordinarily useful. After a visit to a local reservation, she finds herself conscripted to lead one of the many small support towns erected around the great pillar forts. Not near her old home, but in far-flung Africa. John McIntire, the “Fighting Bull” -The commander of the African Fort, but because of circumstances beyond his ability to contend with shortly after taking command after being re-activated from retirement, he finds communication with his chain of command increasingly difficult. The US government, hell, even the United Nations, seems to have fallen into complete and utter chaos. The African Union is embroiled in a bitter civil war just outside his door, and supposedly, most of the world governments are in similar situations. Meanwhile, John must do his best to be ready to facilitate diplomacy, or to match the hostile argument of whatever force might come through the pillar of light when the year timer finishes counting down. Can our heros defend Earth from outside threats, while it tares itself apart? Or will they need to rebuild from the ground up? DEDICATION: This story is dedicated to my father who passed away recently. Jim Holloway, you’ll be missed you old silverback gorilla. Love you dad. Always have, always will.
