The Attack on Exciteland was a massive battle that took place during The Food Wars, towards the end of the war in a desperate offensive carried out by the FSA in an attempt to gain some ground. The battle was considered to be one of the biggest terrorist attacks since 9/11.

## Prelude

A week earlier, the FSA hijacked flight 141 to Anaheim California, which allowed the FSA to deploy a company of soldiers in the area, leaving behind two men to sell the idea of there being no threat. The militia members all checked into hotels in the surrounding area, preparing for the attack that would be carried out in the height to Exciteland's popularity, hoping to use the park as a staging ground for the homeless population in the state, giving them food and shelter.

Three days before the battle, Stansbury High School from Utah had it's annual cheerleading school trip to the Exciteland, where 30 School Security Service operatives accompanied the students, per SSS regulation. The school checked into the Exciteland Resort, which was where the majority of the FSA military was waiting.

The high school was able to enjoy the park for two days before the battle.

## The Battle

The battle began in the middle of the day, at the height of Exciteland's popularity, where the Hounds, a local Anaheim gang, opened fire on the ticket booth, holding the civilians trying to get in hostage. The shots rang out around the park as the Exciteland Security attempted to stop the gang, but were ineffective.

The park quickly began evacuating the rides as the park tried to evacuate the civilians through emergency exits. This proved to be a bad idea as the FSA militia and the small homeless population that joined them entered the park this way, subduing and holding the civilians as hostages, killing anyone who tried to fight back or run.

During this time, the SSS quickly regrouped at the Land of Tomorrow, where they gathered the children from their school, as well as a massive number of civilians and a small group of Security. The SSS took control of the situation, ordering the civilians and security into the Space Adventure 4D ride, as it was an underground ride, and was the safest place in the area. The SSS then broke into squads of five, with one squad staying behind in the ride to help the security officials while the rest of the squads moved out, trying to rescue the civilians to the ride.

The FSA militia began to move through the park, bringing hostages to various centralized locations to stall any potential police or security interference as they moved towards the restaurants and looked for the park managers. During this time, the homeless that joined the FSA moved through the park with their own mission to secure areas for the homeless population to take shelter. They stumbled across the SSS, and opened fire on them as they were trying to save a group of civilians. Two SSS agents were killed as they returned fire, killing several homeless, before the two groups took cover behind various rides. The shooting alerted both the FSA and the Hounds, who began to converge on their allies position. The Homeless, untrained and uncoordinated, were cut down by the better equipped and trained SSS agents, with all 20 of them killed, but not before the FSA and Hounds entered the area. The Hounds took up position in elevated positions, some even using roller coaster and other amusement park rides while the rest of them used the monorail system to fire down on the SSS, with the FSA militia moving in on them, killing three more, and wounding five. The SSS fell back, trying to draw the FSA away from the Space Adventure ride. SSS officer Andrew Scott and three other SSS agents circled around the area to protect the ride and bring back the wounded agents while the rest of the squads separated and hid around the park.

The Hounds mission changed, with them abandoning the entrance while the FSA went down to hunt the remaining SSS. The SSS ran off towards the Exciteland Stronghold, an attraction that people could visit, and prepared an ambush inside the gate. The initial squad of seven FSA operatives were unaware of the potential for an ambush here and were gunned down. The remaining 36 operatives fired into the stronghold, killing three more SSS agents, before the SSS ran off into the Fairytale land. Exciteland security fired on advancing FSA operatives killing two more before they themselves were gunned down.

Meanwhile, the Hounds located where the SSS retreated to, firing into the the rides entrance. The Security forces there moved up from the underground portion of the ride and assisted Scott and his men at the entrance, killing several Hounds. The combined forces were able to hold out for a time but were unable to last long against the numbers of the gang. Ten security officials were killed, and Scott ordered the remaining eight to retreat back into the ride to keep the civilians and the students safe, while he and his men prepared a last stand inside the ride. Using the natural darkness, the three agents set up an ambush and the Hounds poured in. Scotts men opened fire on them inside the darkest part of the building, killing several as they returned fire blindly. This didn't stop the Hounds as they pushed forward, killing Scott as he tried to hold them back. His men attempted to run away, but were shot down, with the last operative shouting a warning to hide before he was executed. The Hounds quickly regrouped and did a head count, and found they were down to only 19 men. The quickly caught their breath before they moved further in.

The FSA pushed through the Fantasyland world, engaging in battle with SSS operatives conducting hit and run tactics as the civilians hid in whatever they could. The sound of police sirens was heard all around the area, mixed with gunfire and screams. The SSS and surviving members of the Security guards took position in the castle of the ride Little Universe, shooting at the advancing FSA. A long range fight ensued, with several security and FSA operatives killed as the SSS tried to get word about the status of Scotts team, praying the police would arrive soon.

The remaining Hounds began their final attack, pushing into the lowest part of the ride, searching every room they came across before being fired on in the maintenance hallway. The gang members killed the four security guards who fired on them, moving around the corner, shooting into the room. One SSS agent quickly blocked the opening, trying to stop the bullets from hitting the civilians in the room, but was unable to prevent all of them. Five of the students were hit by the shots as the agent fell over dead. The remaining security and SSS operatives fired into the hallway, killing several gang members, before another Agent was killed in the shooting. Once the smoke cleared, the gang was found dead.

The FSA were now alone, and were trapped in their position, unable to run due to the SSS having a tactical height advantage. The FSA were down to just 16 men, and the police were beginning to move into the park. The FSA realized it was over, and quickly surrendered to the SSS and Security. The SSS subdued them and tied their hands behind their back as they split up. Security and SSS operatives moved around the park to get help from the police as well as offer aid to the civilians and make sure the Space Adventure ride was safe.

## Aftermath

The battle was significate for many reasons, and was considered to be one of the biggest terrorist attack after 9/11. The SSS team present was awarded for their heroics by both the School Security Service organization and the general public. Stansbury High School never did the trip again. The United States began to push for the end of the Food Wars, and prepared for the most daring offense in the war.

## Trivia

* It should be noted that California remained neutral, but started supplying national guard forces and supplies to the main US forces.
* This remained the first and only battle the School Security Service was apart of in the Food Wars. Despite this attack, SSS units in areas near the FSA did not join in the war, but instead upgraded their defenses in case an attack came.

* Exciteland is the exact same as the real-life Disneyland in everything but name for both the location and even several of the rides. It is however, unknown if they have any sort of movies or are in fact the S.C.A.R.E.D.verse version of Disney, although it is more than likely they're simply a big amusement park that exists in the US.
