Flippy didn't exactly want to sleep for now but his brother would eat and that was something not to pass on.
He followed Fliqpy to the place he talked about. The smell of the food made his stomach rumble. He forgot that they didn't take the time to eat before leaving the camp and before that... He was in the infirmary where he didn't think he has eaten... And before they had the mission....
And then he just realised how hungry he was...

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

The two ordered a large pizza and started eating. Fliqpy knew his body would hate him for this, but if it was going to make his brother better, he would do it even if he regretted it. They ate 3/4 of the pizza and called it too much so they saved the last quarter for their parents.

"Geez I don't remember the last time we ate so much..." Flippy said and chuckled.

"Me too..." Fliqpy added. But he felt so, so sick. His body was rejecting the huge amount of food. He couldn't help it even if he wanted to eat. His body wouldn't let him.

"I'll be right back"

He excused himself to go to the bathroom. He threw up once again, it just wouldn't go away. He sat on the floor for a moment, thanking God he was alone, before walking out. But he thought to himself, was it worth it...

"Hell it was!" he muttered to himself before joining his brother.

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

Wow, Fliqpy was right, food did act a bit like sleeping pills. Flippy felt his eyes closing against his will. He tried to stay awake, but failed.
At the moment he closed his eyes, memories of awful nightmares came back to his mind, flashing in front of his eyes. He shook his head and slapped himself. He had to stay awake for now. He couldn't have a nightmare in front of his brother. And in a restaurant to add to the list of reasons for why he shouldn't sleep right now. He saw his brother walking out of the bathroom. He joined him, they payed for the pizza and started heading home.

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

They walked through the streets together heading home through the city. It seemed quite empty but it was late and dark. Then the two saw a group of thugs smoking god knows what, nearby, and had to walk past them, when one of them grabbed Fliqpy's sholder.

"Well, look what we have here, soldier boys!" he joked and pulled him back as the gang circled around the two. Fliqpy wasn't very mad. Yet.

"We're not looking for trouble." He said as he tried to keep his cool.

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

"Well, too bad." another guy responded.

He brutally grabbed Flippy by the collar of his vest and pulled him in front of his face. Since he was bigger than Flippy, his feet were only touching the ground by the tips. He didn't expect the guys to attack like that.

"Come on, are those uniforms for show? It's not Halloween yet." said a different guy with a chuckle.

Flippy kneed the guy in the stomach, making him release him, feeling the sharp, sudden pain.

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

Fliqpy got mad. They were disrespecting them. They had their pride as soldiers, most definitely not for show. He took his brand new and shiny dog tags from underneath his shirt to prove a point before he grabbed a guy behind him and flipped him over his shoulder, making him stay on the ground after knocking the wind out of him.

"You have guts to offend ME like that. Let him go right fucking now !" he yelled to the guy holding his brother, who even after that knee was stubborn enough to hold him.
