There was a fireteam sent to scout the area near the Einzbern castle. Troublesome to say the least. The snowstorm and forest gave us cover to eliminate them without detection. However, we can't have German troops disappearing. I signaled the others to knock out the troops. They did it with little effort. I looked behind me to check for more troops but all I notice is James somewhat farther behind. He seems slower than usual. I walk towards him.

"James, you alright there?" I notice the body next to him.

"A little help with the prisoner would be appreciated," James responded with fatigue in his voice.

"Prisoner? Since when did we have a prisoner?" Frank said, surprised by James' response.

"They tried to escape the castle without any consideration for their homunculus brethren so I thought they were suspicious," James reported

"I guess I'll help," I said. James kept a gun pointed to the prisoner's head as I walked closer. I noticed now that it was an Einzbern that he caught. That could help with gaining more Intel. Just by looking at her, I can tell that she is a Justeaze model of homunculi. She seems to have a command spell mark on her hand. Maybe trying to leave with some information. I see that Jack found some rope and tied her hands with it. Interrogation seems to be the best option for getting intel. I signal the team to pat her down. However, I notice the homunculus' bleeding leg.

"Will, the prisoner is injured," I said. The homunculus' leg had a bullet hole that was bleeding from it. It stained the snow as we stayed in place

He went over to take out the bullet. He was able to take it out and completely heal the wound. We tie her hands and feet up so she can't escape. Now to begin the interrogation.

"You have the potential to be a master, you know that?" I ask her.

"....Yes," she answers emotionlessly.

"Is that why you left? To find a catalyst to participate in the war?" I already found out her motives. Now to negotiate.

"...." she doesn't respond, as expected.

"Well, I don't like playing a game unfairly, so..." I pull out my pocket knife and put it near the rope until I'm pulled away.

"Hey, I don't know what you're thinking but it's dumb. We need to kill her, not set her free idiot," Avenger gave her input quietly. I needed to explain myself.

'I don't like the idea of war without allies, do you understand? You can't protect the king without some pawns,' I told her with my mind, trying to explain my reasoning while being somewhat passive-aggressive. I think she soon understood but didn't like it. I walked back towards the homunculi.

"Anyway, I will provide you with a catalyst and freedom if you give me that key," I point to her pocket. She stayed silent.

"...Alright," she probably realized this was her best chance of survival. I severed the ropes and I was given the key. Then, she left into the forest. It looked like she turned her head back for a moment. Strange.

"You sure that was a good idea?" Frank asked

"Yes, it is. I think this key is of some importance. Why else would she try to escape with a key and nothing else?" Will responds in place of me.
