The sad sad tale of a man named Dan Mcneelee
« on: November 19, 2011, 07:25:23 pm »

Dan Mcneelee was born on February 12th, 2128 in an underground hospital. His mother died in childbirth, and his father was a drunk. All the same, his father did his best to keep him out of trouble. They lived in a middle-class apartment in what used to be a place apparently called Moscow. Rahn Vance, Dan's best friend, lived next door to him. They would do everything together...execept dying.

When Dan was 13, Rahn and Dan were doing their usual weekend routine, which of course meant hurling a boomerang at pigeons. It was Rahn's turn to throw the boomerang, so he did, but of course he missed. It fell into the street and Rahn ran to get it back. Rahn never did see that crimson black truck barreling down the street. It hit him and it fatally wounded him. The force of the impact knocked him all the way to Dan's feet. Rahn looked up at Dan with those emerald green eyes, smiled, and passed away.

We fast-forward five years, and now Dan is eighteen years old. Dan's dad died from intoxication a day after Dan had turned 17. Luckily, he now has a wonderful girl-friend named Esther Quirk. Ah Esther, how they would hold each other, and the way they danced...how sad things that all good things  must have an end. Esther was talking Dan's ear off as usual, when suddenly, all the lights in the city went dark. Terrified, as this had never happened before, Esther got up from the bench she and Dan were sitting on and wondered around aimlessly. When the lights came back on about a minute later, Esther was sleeping on the ground in a pool of ketchup. That's what Dan continued to tell himself as she was buried in her grave.

Dan was devastated. He had already lost his best friend in a freak car accident, now his girl friend was gone as well! He decided to investigate who or what killed her. Dan searched the area around where Esther died, and found a torn piece of cloth. It had the signature logo of the Global Union on it. Dan snapped on that day, and he vowed that he would not rest until he killed every last member of the GU.

Dan didn't anticipate that there were others out there who also hated the GU. After hearing about these people he decided that he'd join up with them. He rose through the ranks, until he became general on his 26th birthday. Dan is tired of putting up with the Global Union treating humans like dolls. This is his story, and it has only just begun.
