    The gunshots rang in the distance, their cover was getting shredded by enemy rounds and explosives. Private Luke Roberts of the 1st Battalion fought ferociously, his M16 was scorched due to the number of bullets he was firing. However, it was not enough, the situation was hopeless and the squadwww.onedoor.cc went down, one by one. Waiting for his time to come, Luke muttered a prayer and continued to retaliate against the army ahead of him. “Take cover!”The ominous shadow of an explosive loomed over Luke as he dove into the nearby sand.

It sounded like some humdrum bible verse; the kind a monotone Quaker preacher might drone on with to his congregation, in a musty Massachusetts one-roomed church house, during the dead heat of summer.
