Edd's POV

Okay, I still have no clue as to what's going on... Tord is Paul's boss apparently, he said something about a base, I think I saw a uniform of some sort in his closet once...

Wait. Tord is a communist, Paul is a communist... uniforms... base- OH MY GOD.

"AAAAAAAAAH!"

OH GOD I SHOULD'VE COVERED MY MOUTH! I heard a knock on the door, and Matt asked me a question, though I couldn't hear him over my mind overflowing with thoughts.

I heard another knock.

"Edd...?"

"Sorry, can you repeat that?"

"I was asking if you were alright..."

"Oh, right! I erm... spilled my cola! Haha, yeah. That's what happened."

Silence.

"Okay then..."

I heard him walk away, and released a breath I didn't realize I was holding. Tord has an army...

How could he have kept this secret for so long...?

Paul's POV

I got dressed in my dorm room, and walked to Red Leader's office.

"Oh, you're here."

"What's the issue, sir?"

He scoffed.

"A spy got in, and apparently it was your roomate. Were you aware of this?"

"NO SIR, I WOULD NEVER LET SOMEONE LEAVE THIS BASE ALIVE IF I KNEW THEY WERE A SPY! Sir..."

He paused.

"Good, you are dismissed. Actually-"

"Yes, sir?"

"I almost forgot to tell you something."

"That being...?"

"You have a new roomate, his name is Pat, and he's coming in tomorrow. I want you to keep a close eye on him, understood?"

"Yessir..."

"Dismissed."

I leave his office, and close the door behind me. That was stressful.

**The Next Day**


I didn't have work for today, though I can't remember why exactly, so I've been sitting in my room with a book in hand, it was nice not having any work to do.

Then someone knocked on the door. I roll my eyes, then get up to open the door.

"What."

A tall man with semi-long, brown hair, and a yellow sweater stood at the door with a few suitcases. And woah... he looks HOT. (A/N: I wrote him to be openly gay in this, carry on.)

"Oh uh... sorry, do I have the wrong room? I'm the new soldier here..."

I facepalmed.

"I am so sorry, I forgot you were coming today!"

He flashed a toothy grin.

"It's fine, I'm Pat by the way."

He stuck out his hand for a handshake, but it took me a second to process what he was doing.

"OH, SORRY! I'm Paul."

I shook his hand, and invited him inside.

"This is actually pretty nice."

I'm pretty sure I unintentionally smiled in a weird manner, because he looked at me and laughed.

I think I'm gonna like this guy.

Tord's POV

I picked up my hat I was given on... that year, and sighed. (A/N: If you haven't read the story over, I changed the gift that Tom gave Tord, carry on.) That's it, it's been too long...

*RING*

"Yeah?"

"Hey Paul, can you watch the base for awhile? I'm gonna take a break from being leader, and you're second in command, can you do it? I need to do something I needed to do a long time ago."

"..."

Answer...


"Are you quitting, sir?"

"No, I'm just gonna be gone for a few years."

He paused again.

"Alright, full pay?"

I sighed.

"Yes Vord, full pay."

"Sweet."

I hung up and packed my bags, then texted Edd.

"Hey Edd, long time no talk."

EDD IS TYPING...

"TORD?!"

"You live in the same place since I last saw you guys, right?"

EDD IS TYPING...

"Umm... yeah?"

Off I go, someone's gonna get a surprise visit.
