Chapter 1
Four soldiers stood silently in the night, guarding the gate to the city of Bridgeport. Two were standing in front of the entrance, while the other two were scrutinising the area from two guard towers to the sides of the gate. The gate was the only entrance point to Bridgeport, the rest of the metropolis' perimeter being marked out by hundreds of kilometres of powerfully shocking electric fences. Watchful, the guards kept constant, almost unblinking vigilance of their surroundings, waiting to shoot whatever moved in the direction of their gate.

Not watchful enough.

As soon as the guards were quietly sniped dead, a squad emerged from the brush and silently moved towards the gate. Grappling hooks shot out of the trees and locked onto the sides of the watchtowers. Several teenaged troopers made their way to the towers. Once they reached the towers, they pressed a few buttons on the consoles. The gates slowly slid open without so much as a hiss.

The soldiers entered Bridgeport, briskly but cautiously walking towards Bridgeport Federal Quarter. It was curfew, so the streets of the city lay silent, as if it had become those of a ghost town. Government troops prowled the cities on foot and by hovercar, searching for any unlawful citizens who remained outdoors.

Searchlights constantly scanned every centimetre of road, parkland and courtyard looking to illuminate any stragglers. The soldiers quietly slid, commando-rolled and ran out the way of the lights, desperate to remain hidden.

Lieutenant-General Benjamin Faulkner was not exactly pleased to have returned to his hometown. He hoped that soon all this would be over and he'd be able to begin his life anew in a world freed from the ever-tightening grip of the Federal Government.

He beckoned the soldiers forth. The young men and women forming the squad quickly ran towards their commanding officer's new location, careful to make as little noise as possible.

As they crossed an alleyway, a guard emerged.

"Hey!" he began. Before the guard could say any more, a bullet had silently been lodged firmly in his heart. He grunted softly before collapsing to the ground. Several soldiers split from the main group to clean up the mess before rejoining their squad.

After almost several hours of zig-zagging and quietly eliminating resistance, the squad finally arrived in the Bridgeport Federal Quarter. After dispatching the guards standing at the entrance, the squad sneaked in quietly.
