Leningrad Stories

Zhanna is a twenty year old from New York caught in the midst of the hell of the 1942 Leningrad siege. In a last desperate race to save her wounded father from death, Zhanna discovers some deep truths about herself and everything around her.

A half-fictional short story about the siege of Leningrad that happened during world war 2. It is diary style from the pov of Sofia Petrova and Tanya Savicheva.

Even if this story is a work of fiction, all events have their roots in documented history. Cold war era's struggle for information and the Cuban missile crisis of 1962, the whimsical regulations laid by Queen Catherine after her crowning in 1762, the avalanche in Nuristan (Afghanistan) in 2017 that killed more than fifty people, are all verifiable facts. It is said that related souls travel together across lifetimes and they carry learnings from each lifetime. These learnings are not carried as logical packets in our brains, but as intrinsic prints in our souls as feelings. The deja-vu that we experience sometimes, is just our soul recollecting those feelings, behind the veil. Even if it is tough, we ought to remember, 'time' is a human perceived concept. Outside of human perception, it is impossible to prove that 1762 came before 1962. The other thing to remember is that the concept of birth and death loses its importance as they become just events in the journey of a soul. As the soul journeys through lifetimes, the soul grows wiser. One more fact to know- Sankt-Peterburg, Leningrad, Petrograd and Saint Petersburg are all the names of the same city. [Number of words = 1500, exactly.]

#1 in Leningrad War has come to the Soviet Union at last. On the night of June 22,1941 ,Adolf Hitler orders the Wehrmacht to breach the Treaty of Non-Aggression he signed with Stalin a couple years prior and invade his supposed ally. Soon, the former allies are bitter rivals bent on destroying one another. As the war comes to the doorstep of Viktor Dragunov , a young Red Army Captain, he must lead his troops, the Red Army's 76th Regiment, to victory not only to defeat the Nazis, but to protect all that he loves, including his home, family, and honor. As the Nazis conquer most of Western Europe, relentlessly bombarding the United Kingdom, the Soviet Army and their partisan allies seem to be alone in their fight against fascism, especially with the the American President declaring neutrality. Hope seems lost, but will Captain Dragunov, along with his lieutenant Sergei and the female partisan fighter who he develops feelings for, be able to overcome the greatest evil to take shape in the 20th century? Particularly when the outcome bears heavy consequences for the rest of the globe.

It was a cold and chilly morning, he could see his breath in the air in a mist. As he walked down a crumbly ruined street he stopped for a quick breather and heard a faint but audible sound. The sound was a rock accidentally knocked over but by what he thought a person or is it the enemy or is it a.... !BANG! The sound of a rifle was audible all around the ruined neighborhood and the only sound that could be heard was the sound of a rifle being reloaded with a fresh new round. Mickhial was staring out his foxhole he had just killed another fascist and pulled out a pocketknife to carve a notch in the butt of the rifle. He didn't feel sick to the stomach over the life he had just took but he felt like, he had at target practice, peace and contentment. He looked up from his notch and noticed 2 figures moving in the distance toward his direction. More fascists. He quickly picked up his rifle aimed and just before he fired he froze something big was coming his way it had tracks.
