Description
Gunshots and explosions rang out over my head. I could feel the breeze of a round whizz past my cheek as I faced the adversary. With a bullet loaded into my hunting rifle, I took careful aim and fired. It shot out with a cloud of powder and the hot dust hit my face. I smiled as I saw the bullet hit my target directly in the head and a fine mist of blood sprayed the ground as he fell. Now wasn't the time to dawdle. I ran while loading in another round, ran to safety. Or at least I hope that the shelter was safe. I needed more ammo and I needed it now. This was my last bullet and it sure as hell wasn't going to be used on me. I never managed to fire the bullet. Like an idiot, I walked straight over a land mine that some bastard from the other team had hidden.

YOU DIED in blood red dripping letters was plastered across my screen. God dangit I thought to myself as I threw down my PS3 controller. One more kill and I would have had a long enough streak to earn a new record and an achievement. I was so close and then I died. I hate landmines. I picked up the controller again as I respawned at the home base and picked up some health packs and my favourite rifle. Running around like an idiot was what I normally did, but this time I decided to try something different and got into a tank. Only once I was in and driving around did I realise that I didn't know how to drive a tank. Oh well, who cares. The tank went on a rampage as I fired at what I believed was the enemy forces. I guessed right, but what I didn't guess was that they had rocket launchers. I saw a rocket speeding towards me at a speed faster than I believed I could get out of the tank, but it didn't mean that I wasn't going to try. I died. Again. I didn't even get a good kill cam because my body was blown up into countless pieces and jets of blood.

Another respawn and another lot of running around the map. This time I went for a sniper and snuck my way around to behind their lines. There was just a guy standing right in front of me, not noticing anything. I couldn't resist, it was the best opportunity I would have. I pulled out my knife from its sheath and ran in for a backstab. He went down silently and quickly as I sheathed the knife. It felt good to get a points bonus for the backstab. There was much more running and lots more backstabbing as I wrecked havoc behind their lines, but it was too good to last. They caught me and turned me into a very holey Swiss cheese. Albeit a bit of a red Swiss cheese but a Swiss cheese nonetheless.
Without further ado, I respawned while my friend joined the game. CASPER has joined your team flashed up at the bottom of the screen. We joined up together and ran into an army jeep. I was driving while Casper manned the gun to shoot down anyone in the way. I found out that I was a terrible driver. We shot over the rough terrain, bouncing off the rocks and flying off the hills, both of us hysterically laughing. We didn't even make it anyway near the enemy base because I took a run up a hill and flew off the other side. We hit the ground and the jeep exploded with us inside it. There was more hysterical laughter as we watched the replay of the explosion.

We did it again. I tried to drive properly but it just didn't seem to happen and we flew off another hill and crash-landed but this time we survived. Only to get hit by a missile from an enemy plane. It was worth it, though. You should have seen how far we flew across the ground before we landed. This time I let Casper drive. He was certainly a better driver than I was, but he was just as reckless and crazy as I was at the wheel. We actually made it to the enemy base this time but died as we rugby tackled a tank and exploded, but the good thing was that we took the tank down with us.

Next to do was to turn it into a race. The both of us got into a jeep each, and raced towards the hill as fast as we could to see who could fly the furthest and, if we both survived, who could reach the enemy base first. Neither of us made it past the hill. He crashed at the bottom, and I hit a rock and went backwards. It was quite the fail, but I technically won since I did make it to the enemy base and managed to kill a few people before being blown up by the barrage of rounds piercing holes in my jeep. It was fun nonetheless, going round getting ourselves killed in stupid ways. Well at least it was fun crashing the different jeeps, helicopters and planes that we acquired. At least it was until we both got kicked off the server by an admin.
