[b]Municipality of Lingayen - 9/30/2022, 8:17 UTC+8[/b][/center]
[hr]

As a War Correspondent, Ayahime arrived at the Municipality of Lingayen seventeen minutes after the fighting had stopped. Ayahime had a 14-hour, 52-minute flight from Sacramento, California, to Lingayen, Philippines, but she had to divert her flight somewhat because of Chinese Aggression in the region. She officially arrived by car at the Municipality of Lingayen, safe enough that she drove herself since the news waited for no one. It didn't help that Ayahime had jet lag from the long trip, and having her flight diverted slightly from going straight to Lingayen, Philippines, was a pain. [color=#8B4513][i] 'Christ, this place was turned into a wreck by the Chinese. Oh god, that must have been some battle. Too bad I was late in getting here to see it.' [/i][/color] Ayahime thought to herself, with one of those looks of war is so much different when looked up close. She did go through War Correspondent training to understand the pros and cons of being one.

Ayahime parks her car nearish to what would seem like a good parking spot and gets out [url=https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/X8LUsjBdBuRbQat6U9eU8P-970-80.jpg.webp]Sony A7 IV, Camera[/url], which is the best identifier of being a War Correspondent, Freelance Journalist. She places her Sony A7 IV Camera around her neck, holds it carefully, and tries to figure out what to do since the buildings in this city are slightly damaged from the fighting. [color=#8B4513][i] 'Hopefully, no one will notice me.' [/i][/color] Ayahime thought to herself while walking towards the Sison Auditorium. 

Ayahime got her camera off her neck and started taking pictures of the surrounding buildings that [i]did[/i] have damage in Lingayen, Pangasinan. She was too engrossed in taking photographs as she walked down the street towards the Sison Auditorium. However, Ayahime did remember that she needed to report to the highest-ranking military officer in the region. Thankfully, she called where she got her War Correspondent Credentials to learn where the allied army locations were in the war-torn areas of the Phillippines, Vietnam, etc. since previous War Correspondents did return to the United States. [color=#8B4513][i] '96-year-old buildings being converted into military barracks is depressing, but war changes places.' [/i][/color] Ayahime thought as she walked and stopped on the street with the large building behind her. She sighed slightly, looked behind her, and took a picture of the Sison Auditorium. After taking the picture, Ayahime placed her camera back around her neck.
