The real monster / Reich x Sowjet

Chapter 6

The next morning, Soviet Union was the first to wake up and slowly got up before going down the stairs. He wanted to see how the wolf was doing right away and thought about Austria again. His thoughts were quickly away from her. He walked slowly from the hallway into the living room.

But when he saw that the wolf was no longer there and that a red Countryhuman was lying there instead, he could hardly believe his eyes. He slowly got closer to the Countryhuman and noticed that the Countryhuman was a young woman. She had old bruises on her back and a few scars.

Soviet Union felt sorry for her and wanted to find out what happened to her. He was still very confused, especially when he saw the fur on the ground. Was she perhaps a werewolf after all, as Austria had claimed. But werewolves were meant to be two-legged, muscle-bound killing machines.

This wolf form wasn't even scary or anything close to dangerous, in fact it was rather cute and genuinely friendly. Soviet Union now noticed that the woman was not wearing any clothes and quickly went to the sofa. After fetching her a blanket, he went back to her and covered her.

She immediately snuggled into the blanket. Then Soviet Union could see her flag. It was Third Reich. He could hardly believe it. Soviet Union couldn't help but look at her from every angle to get a better look at her wounds.

One scar in particular attracted him, it was on her chin. The tall Countryhuman knew immediately where she got the wound from. Reich wanted to run across the playground during the day, but it was relatively wet and Soviet Union had tripped her.

Since Third Reich didn't expect it, she fell onto the paved floor. She injured her hands, knees and her chin. Soviet and other children near the scene of the accident started laughing. Reich got up after a few seconds as if nothing had happened and went into the school building without crying a bit.

For a few school hours, she dabbed her blood away as it wouldn't stop bleeding. She was always ashamed because the blood kept dripping on the floor and she got in trouble for it. Sometime the teacher sent her to a doctor.

Only now, after all these years, did Soviet Union see more of what he had done to Reich. For the first time he felt a strong sympathy for her. His vision was slowly deteriorating as he began to cry a little. A wave of guilt rolled over him. He wanted to take her in his arms, but he made neither a movement nor a sound.

Slowly he calmed down a bit and thought about what he should do now, since he couldn't just leave her lying here. He came up with the idea of carrying her back into her house. Soviet Union picked up the sleeping Countryhuman woman in bridal style and looked to see if she hadn't woken up after all.

She continued to sleep peacefully in his arms. At some point she turned more to him in her sleep and snuggled a little on his chest. Soviet didn't know what to make of it as he kind of liked it. He carefully carried Third Reich out into the garden and went into the forest.

The street would be easier, but he didn't want anyone to see them together like that. It was only a few gardens before they arrived at Reich's house. Soviet Union saw the open window but checked the back door first, but it was locked.

Soviet Union thought about it and decided to use the ladder to get to her bedroom. Reich moved briefly, but only to snuggle even closer to Soviet. He waited a little longer and watched her. Somehow he felt happy to see her snuggled up to him so calmly.

He somehow started to smile a little, but when he saw her wounds again, his smile faded. Soviet Union placed the ladder and carefully climbed up. Once at the top, he carefully laid her down on her bed. He actually wanted to take the blanket back from her, but he didn't want to disturb her.

Soviet wanted to come back to her in a few days and explain the situation to her. Before leaving, he went downstairs and took her a key to the house so he could bring her back to her house after she stayed with him again as a werewolf.
