Day one - rebirth

Exited as always I turn my computer on, I see my friend online. This is going to be an awesome day in Dayz. Today was the big day, the day were we would go and repair an ATV. and how exited we were. When we logged in it was dark. Not just dark but dark dark. Our night vision goggles were turned on and we immediately took the parts out of our tent, filled the motor with fuel and drove off. We drove and I see our ghillie suits flapping in the wind. Swiftly we drove over the map. Searching for an ATV or even another vehicle it didn't matter what it was. Driving from Rogovo to Stary Sobor I noticed something on the road. It was an ATV!

We began repairing the ATV, though it was on its side we were sure we could flip it. After repairing all the parts we still couldn't sit on it. There was only one way left. We were going to drive with our motor into the ATV. I was busy trying to get the ATV on four wheels with the motor, my friends just on the ground there doing nothing and laughing at me failing. when we hear something....

GUNSHOTS! After a few seconds I realize it. Someone is firing at us. Quickly I drive away over the road. My friend is pinned near a tree. Luckily these people didn't have night vision and couldn't aim because all their shots missed. My friend ran near the tree line and I quickly picked him up and we drove away.

By now our motor was badly damaged and we decided to go loot the factory near Polana. Of course we couldn't find all of the parts we needed on one server. So we went server hopping just for the parts. I was checking the little houses around the main building as my friend was just in the server. I look to the left and I see someone crawling through a gap in the wall. I figured it was my friend, I just followed the guy around when I see another survivor. I decided to check the weapon of the guy and he had an AKM. My friend has a M4 COO SD. My heartbeat we up and quickly I take cover and ask him over voice if he is friendly. After asking a couple of times I get the response typed in that he is friendly. I breathe out and still feel the adrenaline through my body. I was looting the main building. When I got disturbed.

He Fired! I turned around and looked him straight into the eyes. Giving him a few swears words via voice. My life ended with the last word. Mothafocka. My screen gets filled with the words. ''You are dead''. I hadn't seen these words in a long time. I got mad at the guy then was disappointed in myself for not killing him. The one time I was friendly I get shot in the back. Then it comes. Acceptation. It's time for a new try.

I respawn. I look at the bottom right corner of the screen and see the word ''Balota''. A great spawn location. I go to the deer stands around the medical tents and karma clearly is on my side now. Picking up the PDW and AKM I decide to go to Cherno for a new backpack and some food. I've always liked Cherno and Elektro. Lots of loot. In Cherno I had a lot of luck as well. I got an Czech Backpack and Camo clothing. But what I didn't knew was that this was just the beginning.

I made my way to Elektro to meet up with friend again. He told me to go to the fire station and yet again I was lucky. Lying on the ground in all its beauty there was a M16A2 COO. It was the first time I found this weapon. I look out of the tower of the fire station and my heartbeat is raising again, adrenaline is going through my body yet again today. Through the scope of my brand new M16A2 I see a survivor. To be exactly a survivor with a coyote backpack and a hatchet. I make my way to him and shoot him in the back. Just for the backpack. I feel bad for this kill. He only had an hatchet, a makarov and some medical supplies. If you read this post I'm sorry for killing you.

After all this luck I figured it was better to leave Elektro. As I was sprinting towards Staroye with a horde of zeds behind me, something happened I was not too happy about. I got shot. Though only bleeding I couldn't stop running because of the zeds behind me. I had to kill the shooter. Quickly I turn from where the shot came. Then I see him there. A survivor in civilian clothing about ten meters away from me. I switch my M16 to burst and shoot a mag through his head. I looted the body though there was not much I could use.

After teaming up with my friend again we decided to go to the ATV again. We crashed the motor in the ATV trying to flip it. Only one wheel in the motor, not enough to get it going again. So we had to drive with 5 mph to Cherno in search for some wheels. Now we're stranded.....

What will tomorrow bring us?

After writing this I have to say a last thing. DayZ I fucking love you.

There can be some grammatical errors as this is my first time writing.

Criticism is always welcome!
