I guess this could give future students a look into what life could be like. It could be used as a guide to not follow in my footsteps.

Sergeant Cameron 'Jet' Shipley was only six years old when they silently descended through Earth's skies in June of 2026, annihilating 85% of us. 16 years later, Earth is a wasteland, and humanity is painfully familiar with an inescapable truth: one look into the eyes of a gorgon, and it's all over. Terror lurks around every corner, and the rules of survival are simple: stay quiet, move quickly, and don't ever look.

The creatures arrived on June 6th, 2026, by the hundreds of thousands, silently drifting down out of the sky, hovering at a geostationary orbit for three months all over the planet, taking up positions. No one knew what they wanted...why they came...or why they wouldn't just go away. And then, three months later, the unthinkable happened. They suddenly came to life, hunting us down. We called them gorgons—after the mythical creature Medusa—because their eyes had the power to paralyze us with just one look.
