Chapter 1:

Today a battle is won and tomorrow another begins. That’s what everyone said in this little grey town. It was only till 9pm at night that the soldiers returned. With sad expressions they hauled themselves back home and into bed. Nothing had ever been the same after world war three. The planet had been destroyed and now they had moved to another planet only to find that they weren’t the only ones living there. They had discovered alien life and had stupidly declared war on them and then, the once beautiful land and sights had become a battlefield. Every day was the same story. Get up early, eat, pack and leave. This war had lasted over 10 years. This never ending war meant that as a child you would grow up in a boarding school where there was no holidays and you would often only see your parents once a month. But for some children they never knew their parents because they were… Gone.
