"Как вам такое - вы двигаете ногами отсюда и нихто из вас больше не подохнет тут!"
(How about this - you leave us alone and noone else from your group will die here!)
"Морду закрой, пидор! Смотри мне - щас приедут наши и мы вас в плен!"
(Shut your trap, fag! Our backup will arrive and you're going to prison!)

Filak went flipped the enemy commander off and jumped off of the tower where Skif was standing, he quickly found the commander in the bushes and shot him in the head, with surprised and scared screaming out of the bushes.

"The field in front of the base is a blood lake. Lots of Russie corpses - and blood on the ground. Smith nearly died. When we were retreating - the bastards shot him in the chest. Wesson got shot in the arm. Orsis had her legs disabled - again. Ugh. One side Opium second side Loss. Everyday is such a coinflip..."

Filak said that, sitting down, as Sauer pat him on the shoulder.

"But because of you, captain, none of us died! You should be happy because we really could've hit our finish line back there."
"...thanks Sauer."

Walther went out of the old house that became the hospital for the team - thank god the walls are still intact here.

"Alright - everyone is ok but Smith is gonna stay in for a while..."

"So this is gonna be our base for the meantime? Great. Hope we have enough food. SKIF! SIMONOV! LIGHT THEM UP!"

They both nodded and Skif began scoping in on the bushes, and shooting anyone who ran out as Simonov shot out of the RPK-16.

Noone was left alive.

"I can't see anyone through the thermal binoculars... They're gone, captain!"
"Alright... Stay on guard up there - both of you."
"Captain, let's go get you a drink so that you wont stress yourself."
Sauer grabbed Filak's hand and led him to the small hut near the barracks that became the kitchen.
"How old even are you, Sauer...? You're really short. (162 cm)"
"Uhm, I'm 22."
"Unbelievable."
"But it is true!"
"Alright. I just want some water nothing special..."

Filak sat down at the table as Sauer brought him his refilled canteen with water. He took it and began drinking, while Sauer sat down infront of him and watched him.

"Say, captain, what kind of women interest you?"

Filak stopped drinking - knowing he heard that question somewhere before, and began pulling on Sauer's hair lightly, thinking its Helian wearing a mask.

"OW OW OW STAHPIT CAPTAAAAAIN!!"
"...sorry, you reminded me of Helian and I thought you're just Helian under a mask."
"Atleast ask me if I'm Helian or something!!!"

She held onto her head and Filak expected a slap, closing his eyes.

"..."
"..."
"What are you doing?"
"So no slap??"
"Uhm... No."

After Filak told Sauer where his "Helian under a mask" comes from, he left to send signals through the radio to ask how the HQ is doing. He went inside, closed the door and connected to some signal.

"Hello?"

Quietness. The buzzing sound of the radio lasted 2 hours. He was about to hang up until...

"This is Beta. We have been deployed to the Northern Rhein theater. We picked up your line - answer right now."
"...This is Stardust."
"Stardust??? We don't have a team-"
"Alpha is gone. You connected us from the ruins, right?"
"Affirm."
"What's left are now called Stardust. We are made of a handful of soldiers. You could call us a special unit."
"And you are?"
"Captain Filak Burgundy."
"Aha. We will report to the higher ups immediately. Stay online."

Later on Filak got confirmation and Stardust became an official group. Everyone celebrated that at the base while they could.

"Alright folks - here's the plan. We will clean up and loot, and then we will rush to Cologne. That is our plan. Our team is also official now. But let's all get some good night's sleep and then get ready for a day of cleaning and looting."

Everyone went to sleep, and Sauer asked Filak to sleep with him, and just how generous Filak was he allowed her.
