"What was the purpose of that ?"

Flippy was standing in front of the officer, his voice was cold and filled with anger. The attention of the soldier turned to him after they saw his brother calmly walk away.
The officer crossed his arms on his chest.

"He had to be punished for being self-"

"No."

Flippy cut him right off, making the officer flimch and some soldiers to whisper.

"Don't cut m-"

"No that was not the purpose of this thing you just did."

He cut him off again.

"If it was you could have done it afterwards, in a more private place. But you did it in public. In front of everyone. You needed people. Because that talk was just to frame my brother. To destroy his reputation in the eyes of everyone. You just called him a spy in front of practically the whole camp. I have to say that if he's a spy, so am I."

The officer was gritting his teeth, he tried to talk back but Flippy didn't give him the time to do so.

"Now I don't care if you take my rank or kick me out. But I saw what happened after the last attack at the old camp. When we got back there, there were corpses everywhere. And too many of them ware from our side. And that is what could have happened today. If it wasn't for him."

He pointed at the direction his brother went.

"I know everyone here wants to fight. But it would had been a slaughter. You said he destroyed buildings? We can rebuild them. We can rebuild the whole camp, like we did last time. But we can't bring people back from the dead. We. Can't. So thank you officer for trying to make everyone hate the one who took care if the situation by himself and ending with zero losses on our side."

At this point, Flippy was shaking in anger. His hands were balled into fists. He just gritted his teeth without saying something he would regret much more than what he already said. He just turned his back at the shocked soldier and followed his brother.

..............

Fliqpy walked away, not really knowing where to go, so he just went to watch the ruins, and the pile of corpses of the enemies at one of the places of the explosion. He starred at them, not really bothered, while smoking the cigarette, when his brother joined him.

"Hey"

He said rather plainly.

"So ? Is officer-ass still going bananas over it ?"

He joked and the two smiled, though Fliqpy saw his brother stared at the ground away from the corpses. He couldn't blame him, it was beyond his own comprehension how could he himself watch them without even flinching, while his brother and any normal person felt sick at its sight.

"I don't know, I gave him a piece of my mind and walked off."

Flippy replied and shrugged, and Fliqpy smiled. He then started laughing, not really knowing why. Was he going nuts already ?

"What's so funny ?"

Flippy asked him confused but also smiling.

"Well... I have no clue. I just feel like laughing."

Fliqpy replied awkwardly and started to walk off.
Did it feel good to kill the enemies?
To prove himself by killing so many?
What was wrong with him?!
He couldn't figure it out.... He must be going crazy....

"I'll help with the burial with others. I'll go grab a shovel."

...............

"I'll come with you. I seriously need something to do to calm myself down."
