Everyone quiets down and settles at the couch or around it as Richter starts.

"So everyone here knows about how I was a Nazi for, now that I know about the brainwashing, about five or so days before going awol. So I know a tiny bit about how some of the higher ups think because I hunted down quite a few myself. They all wanted to be the real man in charge but knew that Hitler's image is what solidified the reich."

Adam seemed to be listening intently but was growing bored, "So? What does this have to do with allies?"

"I'm getting to that. In life a lot of the top brass for the nazis weren't exactly a big fan of so much funding and resources going to the lab coats so they were never on good terms. Josef was especially disliked as he saw everyone else as a tool or an obstacle. No one had any real value to him beyond what he could use them for to forward his own goals apart from the reich."

He stops for a moment to see if the others were catching on yet. It had become apparent to me just what he was suggesting, but I am not too keen on such an idea.

"What I'm saying is we can pit Nazi cells against him if we give them a target."

Instantly Vaggie stands up, "Are you insane?! You want us to ask Nazis for help?!"

"Would you rather some hotel guests die fighting Josef, or Nazis? The choice seems pretty obvious to me."

Lucifer then cut in, "But how do we ensure that they wouldn't simply turn on us?"

A smile creeps onto Richters facez, "Remember when i said that they don't get along with each other because they all want to be the boss?"

We nod. Something seems to dawn on Pentious' face before Richter continues.

"You plan to send multiple cells at Josef without telling them! They would be too busy fighting each other and Josef to even think about doing anything with us!"

"Precisely!"

Emily looked at Richter kind  of shocked.

"I know they're Nazis, but this still sounds kind of messed up."

Richter shrugs, "They dug their graves when they set me free. Now, there is one other thing that *looks at me and Emily* you two in particular aren't going to like."

I raise an eyebrow to signal him to elaborate.

"Well we are certainly lacking security with the current threat coming our way. And just hear me out, I knew a Nazi that was...interesting to say the least. I believe he may be of use for a certain 'in the hotel' job."

The immediate reaction was flat out rejection.

"You want to use them to throw at Josef? Fine, but we are not bringing any of them into our hotel!"

Vaggie's looked like she was about to try to slap some sense into Richter when Emily stopped her.

"Why did you say that me and Al would be especially against it?"

"Well...that's because I was going to suggest that he guards your kid."

"WHAT?!?"

Me and Emily both shout as Richter holds up his hands in panic. Even Sera is looking at him in disbelief.

"When I said he was interesting I meant it! He died a traitor just like me, but just a little differently. He went along with the Nazis for practically the whole time as far as I knew, but then when they were making their way through a Polish town everything happened at once. Some scouts had discovered a family of jews hiding under someone's floorboards. The general ordered for them to be executed but the person I' talking about stepped between the rest of the firing line and the family.
