OK, I might get a talking to over this one but here goes. I ACCEPT you under the conditions that you WILL read the rules, you WILL, from now on, post in the past tense, and you WILL NOT refer to yourself in the third person, I think second person is what we use, it isn't writen anywhere though. What I mean is don't say that "James decides to move to the (Whatever)" instead put it like this "James walked over to the (Whatever)" or strolled or crawled or whatever you wish, follow me? GOOD!

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?)
James slowly opened his eyes and looked around, he saw what was left of the truck he was riding in, and what was left of his squad. James slowly rose to his feet, M1 at the ready. James notices that he is near a road, leading towards a French village, so James follows the road, but keeps hidden in the forest. As james continues down the road, he gets a feeling that he is being followed, so James decides to move only at night to avoid detection. As James continues he still feels that he is being followed. 'Ok, Ill need to think of a plan, i need to loose who ever is following me' James thought as he remebered reading about an old trap,so JAmes found some tree's, then bent some braches back, and created a branch wip. As James sontinued down the forest path, he heard the traps go of, knowing that he may have only slowed down his chaser, James gets cover behind a fallen tree, and waits. After waiting for about an hour, a German soldier emerged from the woods, and looked around. James waited for him to turn his back, and when the soldier did, james sprang from cover, and ramed his combat knife into the soldiers neck. James then took the soldiers weapons, then dragged the body into a small cave. James then continued down the path towards the village.
