[ WP ] Its the year 2459 . Tension between Earth 's and Mars ' governments have grown to the breaking point . The war for Mars ' freedom from Earth has begun .

Nathan was a simple man. Nathan kept to himself. He spent most of his time with his family. He loved his family more than anything else in the world, his world, Mars. 
 
 Nathan was born to the west of the Olympus Mons, the side that spoke primarily English. However, ever since the Language Barrier broke in 2278 with the invention of the Language-Bot which could turn your voice into any language of whom you are speaking to, language did not matter. 
 
 Nathan and his family were scared of what was yet to come. He spent countless hours of his life building a home with his wife, Maggie, to support their three kids. 
 
 **Shocking News: The War of Mars begins** 
 *How will this affect me? We're nothing compared to Earth's population! * 
 
 Nathan wanted to tell his family that everything would be alright, but his wife and him knew that would n't be the case. 
 
 Nathan knew that he had to fight, crying in the inside but wanting to look brave, he gave his children hugs and kisses, and one last night in the bedroom with his wife before he was on his way. 
 
 Joining the ranks with his younger brother, Ryan, they both were lucky to be selected in the same squad. They celebrated, but both knew what would happen in Space. 
 
 **January 24, 2460** 
 `` Are you strapped in?'' Nathan said to Ryan over the intercom of their *Starlancer Linj's* 
 
 `` Nathan... You know the answer the that. I'm worried more about you. Ever since we've been told about this day, you've seemed... nervous, to say the least. I am too, Nathan, I'm scared too. However, I want us to break apart from Earth. You did n't have to join, you have a family. I do n't aside from my immediate. I do n't have a girl back at home waiting for me to give me hugs and kisses. This war was meant for people like me, not longed for this world but hoping to make a difference... I love you, Nathan. Good luck.'' 
 
 Without anything coming out of his mouth because he knew what his brother had said was true, he simply muttered back, `` I love you too, Ryan.'' 
 
 06:00 
 The Battle of Star Antares begins 
 
 06:45 
 The first ships begin to rage havoc on the others. 
 
 8:00 
 The death count is reaching up to 10,000. Earth taking more causalities due to the size of their army. 
 
 9:00 
 Ryan closes in on another Earth-citizen. Shoots, and eliminates. 
 *God, I'm going to be sick to my stomach. I thought I would n't be second guessing myself but this is just disgusting. * 
 
 Nathan is becoming jerkier on the shooting, retracting back and fourth from the battlefront. 
 
 *I should n't have done this. Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. How do I know when it ends? Should I go back to base? * 
 Without another thought, Nathan's ship is shot once, critically damaging the ship's central exterior. 
 
 Ryan can see from the background, but knowing he ca n't do anything about it. He knows the game of war. Tears coming out of his eyes, he kills every last Earth-ship he can find. 
 
 Back at base at 19:00, Ryan goes back to his camp, his brother nowhere in site. Ryan knew what happened, but did n't want to admit it. 
 At 19:28, Major Junibel comes in to Ryan's tent, personally, to tell him the news of his brother's death. 
 
 `` I'm sorry, Private Smith...'' Major Junibel saw the way Ryan looked. Ryan was not afraid to let out his emotions. Ryan wanted to sob but knew he was in front of the Major. `` Major Junibel, my brother's death means a lot to me. It does. I'll miss my brother more than anyone else in this world. This wo n't be the end of me, however. This fuels my thirst for our independence. I want us to become an independent planet, not just for my brother and his killer, but because I want there to be an end to this inter-planet violence. Major, my name is Private. Ryan Smith, and I am a soldier for the Mars Olympus Mons Task Force. I promise to give my best and only my best.''
