''Dear God...What have we done?'' -Vasily after the First Russian Nuclear Test

Russian Nuclear Silos, Saratov, June 23rd 1643

the 25 Nukes located just 55Km From the city of Saratov were being geared to be fired, the Crews were making the last preparations for the 6 Nukes to be fired, as they did, the 2 men with the Keys were shaking, they would kill Millions, they could not help but feel utter dread. Alexander and Leonid were drinking Tea to help calm down.

''Comrade.Are we...really going to do this?'' Leonid said

Alexander said nothing, he was in a state of shock, after getting the order, he could not help but feel that he was going to kill so many people, they were not even told what they were attacking, just the faint promise of ''Not being a Civilian Target'' which did not help him in them being any less scared for the future.

''Alexander?'' Leonid asked as he saw he was not saying anything

''What? I'm fine, Just worried'' he said honestly

The 2 men shared a Light laugh as the Bells began to blare, the sound that it was Time for them to begin the fated last check. As they Checked the Fuel, The Trajectory and the Payload, they breathed a sigh of relief, it was to hit the Ocean, meaning it most likely was to scare the 4th Reich into surrender without killing Millions. As they saw the Keyholes waiting for them, they felt their legs getting turned into solid stone.

The Hatch to protect the Hole popped open, and both men placed the Keys inside, Leonid then sighed and spoke.

''Turn in 3...2...1...Now!'' He said as both men twisted the Keys

The Button flashed red and both men pressed it at the same time.

As they did they felt the world shake, as they fell onto the ground, they saw On the Radar the 6 Nukes they prepared begin to move towards their targets, as they saw it, the 2 Guards said what everyone inside the room wanted to say but was too scared to say it.

''Was this the right choice?'' they said in a defeated tone.

As they said that, A Gunshot was heard, as they turned, one of the men in Charged of firing the Nukes had just shot himself, feeling the grief of what they had just committed, Leonid and Alexander looked at each other before they sat down and began to softly weep, they cannot imagine what they were about to do.

In the Skies of Russia, 6 of the Most powerful ICBMs flew towards the sky, as they did, people pointed and felt terror, they all knew what it meant, but with the level of soldiers inside the city, the people were told that all was fine and that it was a simple scare Operation, But the feeling of what they had unleashed could not be described.

In 14 Minutes they would hit their Targets, and over 22 Million people would die, but to Russia it was life or death, they had to choose the option that let them survive another day, Since most in the country saw that the 4th Reich had to be destroyed no matter what so when the ''Nuclear Order'' were leaked by a unknown source, the worse the country had to face was a protest in Saratov due to them not being told in case they were hit in response.

Russia's Greatest killing Blow had began

4th Reich War fleet, middle of Ocean, 3840 KM from any Land, Same time

On the Bridge of the KMS Gross Adolf, Captain Linst looked at the massive Fleet, his H-44 Ship was in the center of the fleet. 11 500 Ships, 47 900 Jets, Hundreds of Thousands Missiles, nothing could described the size and power of this fleet, it could conquer Russia by itself, nothing was going to stop them. As he Looked at the Skies, he noticed in the Far distance, 6 little dots, he felt death coming.
