now for the story.<br/><br/>throughout mankind's history, many tragic wars have taken place. WW1, WW2, russo-japanese war, civli war, and many others. all of these combined however, cannot even equal a fraction of the horror that occurred when they came. it all happened on a perfectly normal day, the sky was blue, and everyone was happy. then, the universe was ripped apart. the sky turned red, night became day, and the moon turned dark red. gateways opened, and massive creatures marched through, into our world. they began slaughtering people. we tried to fight back, but our guns had little effect on them. they were like meth addicts, you could unload an entire xlip from an A.K. .212 into their head without making them blink. some people though learned to fight back. they learned that certain "rituals" could increase a weapons effectiveness, and certain weapons just plain worked better than others.
