The Civil War

From the moment his parents died in a freak accident, Jon began growing up far faster than he should have. Rescued from an orphanage and given a good home, in time he learned that opening up to let others into the protective shell he had created for himself became easier. Even the rare opportunity for love became possible. By the time the Civil War broke out, he had grown into a teenager. Too young to enlist and yet desperate to do his part, he lied about his age and joined the Flying Corps. Through luck and the help of his newly found friends, he completed his training and found himself on the front line. What he discovered there were the harsh realities of war. In the fast paced and ferocious battles that took place he soon learned the hard truth that not everyone could go home.
