Writing Sample:
Scenario: You’re alone behind enemy lines and you get the eerie feeling someone’s watching you. You’re trying to remain quiet, stay low, work your way back to the frontlines - but you can’t help but feel you’re being followed… (How does your character React? What’s running through their mind?)
Sink wore the shoddy clothes of a beggar almost, scraping his Officer Uniform and chevrons, for the garments of a local French Farmer. He’d seen the clothes hanging to dry on a nearby line, so they wasn’t completely dry either, which caused a displeasing chill against his skin every time the breeze beat against his chest or flailed around his stern nimble limbs.
A sudden eerie feeling did seem to follow Liam for quite a while, but being behind enemy lines, he wasn’t surprised. The French had made a complete mockery of British forces in France, trying to stop the Nazis from invading, why on hell would Churchill allow the French to control their glorious men? It baffled him, but one thing sure, was that the French had completely let the Nazis through and now Lieutenant Brentwood was behind enemy lines, racing to get in front of the German Frontier, back to his battalion at least!
The English was on mass retreat and Liam must’ve got lost due in the night, as his platoon and company came under heavy bombardment. Now, he walked lonely across farmland in damp clothing, looking more conspicuous than average and normal, that was until vehicles in the distance caught his attention and had Liam falling to his belly within the midst of the hay field, crawling deeper into the foliage, in fear he’d be seen.
“Bloody marvellous…” he muttered to himself angrily, as he watched German Panzers rumbled down the dirt-path in the short distance, Nazis hollering back and forth to their commanders, whilst their tank crew captains sat atop of their steel deadly tank stallions to look ahead with their binoculars, indulging themselves with their fat egos in watching the British retreat - more so knowing they was already winning the war after little effort, this was only the beginning and the Nazis already had France in their grip! Next, Britain - right?
Liam watched in ore, unable to do much, knowing fully well he had to let them past… So he laid dormant in the bristle of the bushes until the coast was clear… However long that took, idly playing with his webley revolver, the British officer’s side-arm.
