FIRE!!!!
As we fired our first barrage, the result was success killing the first enemy advancement.
ВРАГ ВХОДЯЩИЙ!!!!! (ENEMY INBOUND)
We duck on our respective trenches to dodge the barrage and many of our men got wounded or killed by the first barrage in all directions and we fired back but, they took advantage of the terrain. However, we don't what will happen next. The screams and gunshots heard around the area multiple men were getting pinned down so fast that even a machine gun can take us around 0.10 seconds, damn these bastards will never give us a chance to fight back. I have no choice but do the suicide charge then, as I was reloading and pick my bayonet to attach on my Karabiner 98 while observing the enemy's barrage. "First battalion!!! I shouted the battalion paid their attention to me. I continued " Do not retreat, we still have the numerical and tactical advantage. In the meantime, we need to hold them off as long as we can until the reinforcements get here to assists us, Kazimir get the horn and inform Sora to bring about 500 men and also inform Chul-Moo on the other side, that we can hold our enemy at bay around 2 days". As the SG43 provide covering fire along with two of my men trying to firing back while they were in heavy fire. I called Bahadur to get the flag and wave it to signal the men to attack, while I was reloading my karabiner 98 then pass on to my right side to give him a weapon and took out my Walther PP9 on my left waist and turn off the safety then cocks it and I look left and right. I barked " Men, we were going to charge, say your final goodbyes and your final moments before we commence the attack". the men were looked at each other to say their final goodbyes and take out their sacred items to remember the most beautiful day in their life then put it back on where it belongs. After that, they ready themselves and their faces suddenly change. Because they knew that they will die and their dedication to bringing peace and harmony to our world and also bring pride to their country and especially their family. When I saw my watch and it's already 9:55 A.M. "Men, get ready and check your weapons" I command them. After that, they looked at their respective rifles and pistol to check that if their weapons are not malfunctioning or jammed to replace it and they took out their bayonets then attached to the end of the barrel of karabiner 98. After they check the atmosphere, they began to change into a heavy and cold breeze. I sighed to ready myself to lead my men in battle, I stand up while pointing my pistol to the enemy's advancement. I pulled the trigger and-

BANG!!!!!
As a result, the enemy in front died while readied his gun before he killed me. After they heard the gunshot and I shouted "Атака! Заряжать!!! (ATTACK! CHARGE!)" I charged while my men back me up with their famous war cry that can bring an enemy into a bloody fight.
URA!!!!!!
*Meanwhile*
No One's POV
(Location: in the last line of defense/ Borya's line)
As Borya's men were readied the defenses they were stopped because they heard their national war cry and suddenly shout.
URA!!!! URA!!! URA!!! URA!!!! URA!!!! URAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
As Borya was calming the men he saw Sora with his 500 of his regiment he asked in shouting tone " What is this?" Sora replied " The first line of defense was on the brink of collapse because the enemy advancement suddenly fired in all directions with medium casualties. Luckily, John rounded up the survivors and gathered them to perform a suicide charge to keep 'em at bay they were waiting for us to assist him". Borya looked at the small map which shows the line of defense in John's line, he nodded and salutes. Sora nodded and left.
*Meanwhile*
As they were running towards the enemy position they were in the wall of gunfires, while the adrenaline rushing through their bodies and they keeping up the pace to reach them. While they were running some of the demons were smile and confusing? why? because they feel something nervous or scared? they didn't know what is that 'feeling'. but, they feel a sensation in John and along with his men are like a hoard of bears with a white tiger, blue and red eyes. While John and his men were running they returned fire after fire to cover their men to run forward towards the enemy, then John firing his pistol left and right killing two or four demons in the head. as they were close to performing a hand to hand combat, Sora and his 500 men were on the trench going to their position to defend the line. "I need two mortar teams to cover John's retreat we need them alive, the rest get to your position and fix bayonet, gents". They nodded and go to their respective positions to ready for covering the retreat. As both sides clashed, dodging, punching, pushing, kicking, yelling, jabbing, thrusting, slashing, ducking, firing and more. the momentum of the fight falls in human's favor because of the suicide charge they execute, the men were still in an adrenaline rush and killing the enemy who stands in their way. The demon was now dwindling, their numbers they decided to retreat and reproducing their numbers because of the 'disturbance' they felt a moment ago, John cut the chase and saw their enemy was retreating. he smiled and shouted "ЗА РОДИНУ!!!! (For the Motherland)" the men roared and lifting their hands and weapons for their victory cheering and congratulating each other but when they turn around and saw their fallen comrades they pray and weeping for their brothers who fell in battle. they decided to do a proper burial for their fallen brothers to earn their peace and glory. As they dug and place the corpses to perform the burial ceremony. after 2 hours, they said their final goodbyes and left to go back to their line.

The battle cost about 497500 lives both human and demons, on John's side, about 2000 casualties and on the demon side about 500000 casualties. After John listed the casualties while walking, as they reached on the hillside and saw Sora with his 500 men ready themselves reloading their rifles and SG43 machine guns while Sora standing, waiting for John to tell what happen during the surprise attack. Sora ordered, " Guys, help these men and give them some space". The men nodded and helped their comrades to rest and congratulate them for their first victory.
As John was sitting on the sandbags, Sora sits beside him and asked " John, how many casualties we had?". John answered" 2000 casualties and we have 2000 left on this platoon, with you and 500 that is total 2500". Sora sighed and massage his temples he looked at his watch and said " we have one day to leave this place and the reinforcements are coming around 12 o'clock in the afternoon". he saw the terrain and he continued " the enemy will come back at any time before the reinforcements came. Come on, get some rest I'll be the first watch you need it tomorrow". John sighed and nodded while high five Sora and left to his office, Sora looked at the terrain and said " God help us all". after that, he sits down then observed the terrain and the trench itself while drinking a coffee.

Nowhere to Run
Nina is a young priestess that just started her journeys in the Highlands, in a faraway land. But everything falls apart when greater forces are scheming and unknown men are suddenly after her. She will have no choice but to resort to her wits, make unexpected allies, and navigate her way through unforgiving lands in order to survive. Will she be up to the task? Greetings, reader! First of all, thank you for taking an interest and read my story. This is a story I've been working through all my life. But since I'm a first-time writer, I wanted to start with something small. This is just a small part of something much greater that hopefully one day I'll be able to translate into words as well. I will try to make it interesting as possible but please bear with me. Please understand that English is not my native language, I worked really hard to write in English the best I could. So please if you find any typos and grammar errors let me know. I'll try to upload new chapters as soon as I can. Although I had originally planned to deliver a chapter a MONTH, I think the real estimate would be a chapter EVERY 3 MONTHS since I also have to earn the daily bread. Cover picture made by me. The background picture is from Google but I modified it enough from the original. The story is also available on Wattpad, Inkitt, Scribblehub, and Webnovel.

Authors Note- This story is inspired by DnD, Dark Souls, Guild Wars 1, and my love of eldritch horror and dark creepy dungeons. Also completed doesn't mean end of the line.
