World War II

Chapter 12

3 Years Later

I connect the last string to a pin with a German mans picture on the wall.

I then write the name on a slip of paper and tape it under the picture.

It reads: "Adolf Hitler"

I point to this photo and look at the crowd of soldiers behind me.

"We've fought for this day!" I yell to the crowd. "World War Two will be brought to an end wth this man!"

The crowd cheers.

"Today we honor our lost and catch this man! Adolf Hitler will be brought to the grave!"

Everyone cheers and raises there guns.

"Now let's go catch this killer."

•••

Everyone climbs onto the 20 helicopters to fly us to Hitler's home.

The ride is completely silent.

We shoulder our guns.

I am the first to speak.

"I have a son." I say.

Afew men look up at me.

"How old?" Asks one.

"3." I reply smiling. "He's a car fan." I chuckle.

The man smiles. "You'll see him again." He says.

I look at him smiling. "I know I will."

The men all salute.

I return the favor.

"Whatever happens in there is for our country. Ok?" I ask.

All men nod and yell, "Hoorah!"

I smile.

The pilot looks back at us. "Landing in 30 seconds."

I nod and stand up. The soldiers follow.

Robert gets up and walks over to me. "You ready?" He asks.

I shake my head and chuckle. "Not even close."

•••

Gunfire starts quickly.

I dive to cover and open fire taking 5 guys to the ground.

I move up.

"Get the commander out of here!" Yells a German.

I pull out my phone and text Christina.

I send a voice message.

I begin to speak.

"Christina. I love you so much. Tell Jason I love him. The men are getting Hitler and we can't let that happen. I love you Christina."

I tear up and send the message.

I pull out my pistol and sigh getting ready to stand.

With that I take off.

I cock my pistol and fire at any German I see.

I sprint towards Hitler moving my body side to side.

A huge pain hits my arm.

I yell and continue firing down soldiers.

Robert begins to fire at the soldiers in front of me.

I gain on Hitler quickly. I dive at him throwing him through the door to his house.

He hollers stabbing a blade into my shoulder. I holler and rip it out.

We both get to our feet.

I look at him dead-eyed.

I holler charging him.

I hit his jaw then his gut.

I grab his knife and go for the neck.

Two pain shots hit my back.

I fall to the ground yelling in pain.

I roll over to see a German brute staring me in the eyes with the barrel of a gun aimed at my forehead.

He collapses after a shot is fired.

Robert stands above me smiling.

Hitler goes at Robert from behind.

I grab my gun and fire randomly towards Hitler.

A body falls backwards.

I look at Robert who looks behind him.

Germans begin to run in fear.

All except one.

He aims a gun at my head.

I fire at him but my gun clicks.

I rush to reload my firearm.

Robert falls now injured.

The German looks at me.

And he pulls the trigger.

All I see is the German now with a knife in his back and a US soldier on him.

The soldier approaches me and Robert.

My eyes shut.

•••

My eyes slowly open in a hospital.

A beeping.

I look up to see soldiers standing over my head.

They all smile.

I look beside me where Christina and Jason stand.

I smile at them and sit up. I hug them.

"I love you both so much." I say crying.

Christina cries. "I love you too."
