A thousand emotions played on my face, happiness as well as sorrow, I fought to find the right words, however, I turned my attention back to Sean who was pushed to his knees,
"Don't. You. Ever touch me or say my name again because this is the last time you will." my tone was icy, and Sean continued to glare at me.
"You won't get away, have you forgotten the Kaiser? He will be after you next" After he said those words, I picked up one of the revolvers and aimed it at his head,
"I'm sorry to say but there will be no next time Sean because I'm out of mercy." I pulled the trigger and heard Sean scream, the sharp, metallic scent of blood filled my nose as Sean collapsed to the ground from his knees, blood pouring out of the bullet wound near his head and neck, he looked up at me before I pulled the trigger again, I heard the faint click of the barrel.
Blood spattered on my face and neck, I opened my eyes. Blood poured out of his mouth, his entire body jerked then he stopped moving, I kicked his body with my foot. Sean was dead.
and I murdered him.
"Evelyn- your face." Liam started to say but was stopped when I embraced him, after a few moments, Liam returned it.
"How did you find the Führerbunker?"
"It wasn't easy, however, I found him-" He gestured to Sean, "and followed him here, I managed to steal a SS Guard Officer Uniform." I released Liam.
Liam gave me a thin smile, then he looked over my shoulder, a look of disbelief on his face. I turned my head, seeing my father.
"I don't believe it- Detering is alive. I thought-"
"I was dead? Yes, the German High Command makes everyone believe that once you get taken by the Military police, your a dead man that's what Paul Bäumer believed, an old schoolmate of mine." Detering replied, Liam fell silent until shouting rang from the halls,
"We have to get out of the bunker, otherwise if they find us they will never get out," I was quiet but my mind was set, though Liam and my father could get out of here, I couldn't.
"What kind of a person am I if I flee?" I spoke, loudly enough for both Liam and Detering to hear,
"A smart one, and we would be able to avoid our enemies," Liam replied coming to my side
"Our enemies?! Your people you mean, perhaps I failed them after all." I snapped back, turning away, I felt Liam's warm hand on my shoulder,
"Evelyn, please...-I risked my life to come here and get you out, I can't lose you too." I turned my head to look at him, I reached for his hand on my shoulder, Liam looked down, his demeanor changed when he saw Princess Diana's sapphire engagement ring.
"Liam, no one is safe. Not until the monster with the iron grip on Germany is dead, it doesn't matter how far away I run, because Hitler will always find me, he was after me since my birth. Since that day I had one motive and that is to kill Adolf Hitler and end his reign."
