Streng Geheim

Chapter 14: In the Halls of Germania

It was a very long time since Miho has seen her sister for the last time, when she returned home after a long walk with her friends at the park, in her room she notices a letter with a symbol, which she has never saw before, on it; she opens it and begins reading it

" Deine Schwester stellt eine Bedrohung für uns dar. Wir haben beschlossen, es zum Wohle der Allgemeinheit zu beseitigen.
Verabschiede dich von ihr, wir holen dich auch bald

Sieg Heil"

"What the hell is this?"  She says

"I don't understand german, i....i will call Yukari, she probably knows it from the books she reads about tanks.."

Then she proceed to call Mako, to know what that letter means

"Yukari,  you there?  Yes, i need your help, i recieved a letter in german and i need a translator"

"Sure thing, Miho!  Let me see what is written there..."

Miho shows Yukari the letter, and immediatly she horrifies when she reads it

"Ehm....that's not good, at all"

"What do you mean?"

"it says that they took your sister and they are going to elimiate her for a better good, and they will search and find you after that"

"WHAT!?! ARE YOU SERIOUS!?!? Who is taking my sister? Who are they? Why they kidnapped her? And why are they looking also for me?!?!  EXPLAIN!"

Miho was shocked by the revelation, she was at the same time angry, worried and sad because of the thought of her sister being killed and she be the next target

"Please stay calm, there's no need to shout at me; i'll explain all:  the symbol on the letter is a curved swastika, the symbol of the Thule Society....a secret organization who operated back in WWII, but it was also the Official Logo of the Ordensstaat Burgund....a state composed only with SS soldiers proposed by Himmler on the mid 1941/42"

"How is it possible that all of this old stuff is back now?"

"I don't know for certain, but i think someone revived the idea of the Ordensstaat from the Himmler's one and formed it with the political changes happened in the last months, maybe they are the cause of all this world instability. The only thing i know is that, curently, they are the most advanced country in the world, no one is even close to them, maybe only..."

"Maybe what?!? Maybe who?!?!"

"Maybe the new German Reich is comparable to the Ordensstaat, but is unlikely...."

"We need to go there, inform the others"

"What!?  Have you lost you mind, Miho?!
Is it clear that both countries are literally one the most secret and probably the worst country on Earth, and the other is a continuation of the Third Reich?  Do you understand it?"

"...."

"You want to save your sister, don't you?"

"Of course, but i can't go alone..."

"Argh, fine...i'll tell the others"

"Thank you a lot Yukari!"

Then the call ends, now it was clear that Miho has to go to the other part of the world in order to even get a slight possibility to see her sister again, and to survive another day....

Gathered at the airport Miho, Saori, Hana, Yukari and Mako are making the most inportant decision of their lives, and now no one can change their  mind, so before taking their seats in the plane they do a mutual high five.

The plane was about to take off when they all nodded for their new goal, and after that the plane took of with a destination: Tempelhof.

Hours later they got off the plane, and the first thing they saw was the newly built airport with it's architecture....everything was big in there, so big that only the airport occupies several square kilometers; a voice welcomed them when they got into the main terminal: "Willkommen, Guter Aufenthalt in Germania"

"Are we arrived? Are we really in Germany now?"  Saori asks, feeling a bit sick from the jet-lag of the journey from Japan

"We are, and now we can't turn back..."  Miho answers

"Ehm...what now? Where is the city? Can we get a taxi, I don't feel like walking now" Mako says

"Tempelhof isn't far away from the main city, with a taxi we'll be there in 10/15 minutes, depending on the traffic" Hana says

Then the girls exit the airport, and what they saw was incredible: from where they were they could see the enormous cupola of the Volkshalle, the biggest building in the world...it was visible kilometers away

"Just....how goddamn big is that cupola for being like that!?"  Says Mako

"Apparently a total of 290 meters in height and 315 in lenght..."

"EEEEEEEEH!?!?"  All of the girl almost fainted from the dimensions of the Volkshalle.

Than they called a taxi, trying to say to the driver to go where the important places are, but he didn't understood a thing....the girls can't speak german, and Yukari's german wasn't understandable enough so a gentile man who was passing nearby helped them saying to the taxi driver "Großer Platz"

During the journey, the girls were astonished by all the greatness that the city was transmitting, all of it was the sign of power of it's heritage....of the original creators: Hitler's big dream and Speer's hand....their dream became reality

"It's beautifull....all of this, the architecture is magnificent...."

"Everything is enormous, even the streets...just look at this one, we haven't take a turn...in what, 3 kilometers?"

They were on the Prachtallee on the way to the Volkshalle, where they will find a nice surprise waiting for them
