"So this is the guy who beat you up?" Otto said.
"Yep! The very same one." I replied.
"HAHAHAHAHA. This bastard!? Are you really saying you got beaten up by this little rat? He's the very same person who kept on misfiring his rifle! How dumb can he be!" Lena laughed her ass off as she kept on smacking her table.
"Heh...could you mind getting off of me?" Hermann said pointing to Amelia continuously staring at his face right next to him.
"Um, Amelia? We agreed on a truce. Mind leaving him alone?" I said.
"HA! Alone? How could I trust a person who almost killed you? I mean who knows if he will do it again!" Amelia protested.
But I just raised one of my eyebrow.
Amelia annoyed, agreed and backed off of Hermann.
"Thanks." Hermann said.
"He hasn't a bit since I last saw him. Appearance wise, I mean." Tomas said.
"Good because I loved his pretty face, it felt good punching him one time." Wesley made a punching gesture.
"Could we stop talking about our past? It's embarrassing..." Hermann asked.
"He's right, past is the past and we have a bigger problem at our hands right now. If we can't get together, how the hell are we going to survive in the front?" Mara said.
"Pfft. Yeah right, the only problem we have is the fact that you can't have fun." Lena jokingly stated.
But then Mara quickly moved her arm and grabbed Lena's ear, pulling on it.
"OW! OW! OW! STOP IT! IT HURTS! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Lena screamed out in pain as Mara pulled on her ears to the point it looked like it was going to be ripped off.
"OK OK! I GET IT! I GET IT!" Lena yelled.
Immediately, Mara let go of her.
"OOOOOOOWWWW! That hurts!" Lena rubbed her reddened ear in annoyance.
All of us slowly and quietly chuckled at the sight of her humiliation.
"Huh? I know you guys are laughing at me! Stop it!" She commanded at us to stop laughing but it was not like she was our instructor or anything right? HA!
While Tomas was laughing a bit, he noticed Tobias was no where near him.
Looking around, he found him at his bunk bed doing something with the sheets.
He stopped his laughter and got close to him.
"What are you doing there? You're not thinking of deserting are you?" Tomas asked.
Tobias looked up at him in complete confusion.
"What? No! I'm just...doing some here..." He quietly said.
"Doing what exactly?" Tomas asked.
"Nothing!"
When he gone back to working with the sheets, all of us already gathered around him in curiosity.
"Come on! Tell us what you're doing." Lena asked.
"Yeah! Looks fun! And we like to have fun!" Hermann said mischievously.
When we were all gathered around Tobias, he couldn't hide his laughter before he finally agreed.
"Alright! Alright! Get closer." Tobias said.
All of us formed a circle around him, getting very tight with each other and listening closely.
"Alright, I have a plan. This is how it goes."
Soon, Tobias laid out the plan we were going to execute.
Tonight...
***
Outside in the view of the night sky.
Most of us were in top of a tree carrying something in our hands.
Who knew what it was. Heh...
"When is this bastard gonna come out?" Lena quietly whispered.
"Anytime time soon." Tobias replied.
...
"Yeah right, I've been waiting here for 30 minutes now." Lena whispered.
"Just wait!" Tobias yelled at her.
"SSSHHH! They're gonna hear us." Mara declared.
"Hear us? Mara, my sweetheart. THEY ARE LITERALLY A KILOMETER AWAY. How the hell will they hear us!" Lena yelled.
"Kilometer? Do you even know how long a kilometer is?" I asked.
"Of course!...Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." Lena thought deeply on how long a kilometer was.
All of us exhaled due to her sheer stupidity.
Looking down, both Wesley and Amelia had a rope in their hands.
I chuckled a bit thinking what will happen if we were caught.
We would get in so much trouble.
I looked up and gazed at the stars.
Taking in the view of all the white dots in the black canvas.
I was always amazed by the sheer scale of the universe.
All of those stars were burning thousands or millions of energy per second.
As planets orbited around them.
But I couldn't get something out of my head.
Laura...
I wondered what she was doing.
If she was even alive in the first place.
A single thought of telling my mother of Laura's passing aches my heart.
If I were going to go home after war, I had to find my sister.
I must.
Why would I care about an absent father I've never met in my life.
Click! Click! Click!
"Huh?"
I turned around to see Otto snapping his fingers right next to my ears.
"What the hell were you looking at? You looked like you were completely lost in thought." He said.
"I was."
"Well, what ever you're thinking. It's not the time." He stated.
"Guys! She's coming!" Tobias yelled out and all of us immediately locked in.
Holding out something in our hands.
"The cry resounds like thunders peal...like crashing waves...clang of steel"
Burp!
Our instructor, Franziska walked on the dirt road barely even standing up straight as she kept on zig zagging.
She continued falling and tripping over and over again.
"She's fucking drunk." Lena said.
Franziska held a beer bottle on her hands as she drank it.
All of us were hiding behind and on top of the tree she was about to go through.
Just as she right under the tree.
All of us jumped out.
What we all held in our hands were a large sheet.
The large blanket completely enveloped her entire body from head to toe.
Amelia and Wesley acted up.
Using the ropes in their hands to wrap around her who was covered in the large blanket.
Tying her up which she couldn't escape from.
"HEY! Why can't I see shit!?" She said burping.
"Hah! She's not even aware of what happened." Tomas uttered.
She was wondering around aimlessly.
Hermann took the first action and pushed her.
"AHH!" Franziska screamed in pure panic.
Lena joined in and pushed her back as well.
And then Wesley shoving.
And then Mara.
We were playing around with her like she was some toy.
Like some soccer ball in a football field where the players kept on kicking it.
Soon, she fell on the ground flat.
Snore!
"Is she fucking sleeping?" Hermann stated.
"I guess, she got so tired of us bullying her she just decided to sleep instead." Wesley said.
We all chuckled at the sight of her sleeping soundly on the earth.
"Come on guys, let's make her reunite with her husband.
We collectively carried her entire body in our hands as we slowly walked to one place.
The one place where we suffered.
She slept soundly with her snore breaking through the air.
I could she her saliva slowly seeping into the sheet.
Making it wet and dark.
"Damn, this bitch really is enjoying her sleep." I said.
"Don't worry, she will sleep even better when she's with her husband." Tobias stated.
Yet again, we laughed because of the sheet sinful deed we were going to do.
We've finally reached our destination.
Which was our training ground which Franziska always trained us.
And where we all got dirty in mud.
We dumped her off on the muddy pit where we all previously laid upon.
And just like that, we completely left her alone.
Not even thinking twice of what we did.
***
[back at the camp]
At the dorm where they sleep at.
Someone entered the room all exhausted and buttoning his pants.
"Phew! I took a massive shit back there. What-"
Paul entered the room only to see no one was here.
"...Where the fuck did they go!" He yelled at the top of his lungs.
