10 years later:

The snow crunches underneath me as the sound of bombs and guns blare through the air. 'Stupid Nazi, this is all because of him, he should just kill himself already' I think to myself as I huff and tread in the thick snow. I decide to hide behind a tree to catch my breath, there are dozens of them surrounding me.

A tree branch snaps. I whip around and unleash my claws, I stay silent and still.

I hear a click then a shot, a heap of snow blasts into the air. 'It just missed me'. I begin to run, my heart thumping in my chest, not daring to look back. I hurl over tree roots sticking out of the ground and barge past huge trees in my way, painting out of fear. 'Is this it? Am I going to die?'

I come across a big opening in the forest, 'this is my chance to escape!' The footsteps get louder and faster. I angle myself, making sure I won't fail. Then I spread my wings and take flight, I get at least three meters above ground. But then I hear another shot followed by piercing pain in my waist, then another shot in my right wing. I scream in pain and fall to the ground. I hit the ground hard, it makes me light headed. I remove my hand from my waist and look at it, it's covered in blood. I cough and splats of it come out.

I lay lifeless on the ground, my eyes getting heavy. A figure looms over me, I look up.

"Soviet..."

He makes eye contact with me, not saying a word.

The darkness is consuming me, I strain in discomfort, trying to stay conscious. It doesn't work. 'Why would he do this? We were friends, I trusted him. But no, he had to sign that stupid treaty.' I think to myself. 'I loved him.'

I black out.

I stare at him lying on the cold floor, why? Why did I do this, why did I hurt him? His blood leaks from his body until all the snow around him is red. But he's still breathing. Good, I didn't shoot him in the lungs. I kneel down to pick him up, I do it gently so that I don't hurt him anymore. I hold him close to my chest.

I need to be quick I can't loose him.
