I open my eyes and find myself on Bert’s back. Thank god it was just a dream. I think deeper into it and realize that the dream wasn't as farfetched as I originally thought. It is possible that the guys are pretending to be my friend, since they have no choice but to be with me. It would be smart to act like your buddies with a guy you don't like. Beats having it out for each other when you’re stuck being with them. Perhaps I should have had done that with Agent… nah, it's too fun to piss him off.
I look around to figure out what the situation is. I see PoopStain running with Bert and no one else. I realize that all the guys aren't here, but the one i'm most worried about is JJ. I need to see if my dream was true and if his legs are totaled. Guilt and pain fills my heart as the image of JJ in my dream comes to mind. His legs fucked beyond repair, his eyes filled of resentment, his entire face showing a deep depression. I hope my dream remains just a dream. I hope JJ is ok.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL3lfcxsVS
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0L2xES16K
"Where is JJ?" I asked.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOueIN8gN6R
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1C1dDMhdU
"Dylan, you're awake!" acknowledged Bert.
“Yeah, thanks for the lift man, I can use my own legs at this point,” I said.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZGp57fWNV
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXrPZkl8ny
Bert slows his pace and stops to set me down, everyone else stopped with us. sets me on the ground and says, "are you sure you can walk? You were out for quite a while,"393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz13vjAJVQQ
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mNi8LfkhE
I get off the ground and put pressure on my wounded leg. I hide the shooting pain as much as I could. I can't remember the last time I didn't feel pain, so I must be pretty good at it by now.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiaouVpPBM
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOURO4tU8u4
"I’m perfectly fine now. Just needed a nap," I said.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCP8qHX1AMC
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgepzmLHPvj
"Dylan. I can tell when you lie," said Bert.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDdwYg2JeO
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7istdNij8
"It was worth a shot,” I shrugged. “Where is JJ?"393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYFey2EUGw
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEYLhCoQM0
"He's at the hospital. We wanted to leave you there, but they patched you up and said they wanted to save the room for more serious patients," said PoopStain.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHPpt4WP2X
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYPwR2azAi
"So Bert just carried me around?" I said.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoStB5iMpBQ
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpArY7WJsxF
"We were going to take you to the barracks where the rest of the rejected patients go," said PoopStain.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2KNYVZH4C
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeKHyhevIk
"I'm good to fight. Just need a gun," I said.
"You can't fight Dylan. Just go to the barracks and rest up," said Bert.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNPDpdRHQH
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tANKSArW9
"Fine," I said.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOruhFfe5FL
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdIbPHIkDC
"That was not what I was expecting you to say," said Bert giving me a weird look.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72U4oFIfUG
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqk0xlfnpEL
"I don't want to be a burden on you guys. I don't need anyone to lookout for me. I'll find the barracks on my own," I said.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJurtlotJW5
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOwIzojHCv
"Ok. Me and Bert will go defend the hospital with the others," said PoopStain.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3H3SpjW47
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX7bpbWop1
"Oh yeah. JJ told me to give you this," said Bert handing me JJ’s engraved colt and a couple spare clips.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihcUOXF7Um
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPisubv0eF
"Why would he do that?" I asked.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXrlhadaOx
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh44zDJjByY
"Neither of you will be needing it so it doesn't really make a difference. But we really need to get going," said PoopStain.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDT7OA4mM9
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwZUtTmkMs
"Alright get going," I said.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMqahIEZ13
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1MS7rCgYQ
Bert and PoopStain run back the way we came. I make my way to the front line after Bert and PoopStain aren't in sight. It was never my intention to go back to the barracks and I wonder how Bert didn't catch on to that. Bert is not an easy person to lie to.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMKWHJwhSM
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63vZLgW7pa
I hear a nearby fire fight and I follow the sounds.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgTZYpAH3E
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKzyqKGFod
I come across Captain Cucumber and a large group of Marines defending a large road. They are gunning down Germans without a sweat. This position seems to be fine, so I’ll find another.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBinoUaZwU9
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYG0WMqAlZ
Before I move on I hear German voices from behind me. They must be planning an attack from behind. I cock JJ’s colt and go searching for them.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstw0wSjgzJ
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmmxuXUoKQ
It sounded like the voices where just behind the building that is behind me. I slowly peak around the corner and see no Germans. I slowly move to the next corner with the colt ready. I get to the corner and hesitate to peak.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6eGaAMRDZ
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk3SEDc3K4
I hear the voices again and I'm very sure it came from just around this corner. I turn the corner and see a squad of Germans with their backs against the wall. I quickly start shooting at them and they ran into the building.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOktYoMNRJ
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj62Ih2qhO
I only killed two of the six before they made it inside. I reload a new clip into the colt and slowly creep to the door. I wave the tip of the colt past the door and bullets start raining around me. I lunge back being glad I didn't peak my head instead of the colt.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGVyyyy8JC
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUjvF4jETv
I’m not going to try the door again because they are waiting for me. But I don't have the patients to out wait them. I search a dead German and find something that looks like an oil candle but also sorta’ looks like a grenade.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYkwAE9YWu
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMncEz2u1nz
I look at the bottom of the candle and see some writing that I don’t understand. I inspect it more and notice a pin by the wick. I look at it some more and confirm that it's not a candle, it's an explosive device. It's not likely to be a grenade with how bulky and awkward it would be to throw. I’m guessing its some sort of mine which gave me an idea.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0wZm12cpL
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7BDYTxVZN
I place the mine in the armpit of the dead soldier and pushed him right beside the door. I very carefully pulled the pin and backed away from it.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgyxVzG9yr
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZXe0D1hz6
I circle the building to see what's behind it. As I get behind it I see a shed with a window of the building just above the sheds roof. I'll see if I can find a way to climb it.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwk8heoHOP
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBq7UhRIppj
I have to go the long way around the building instead of crossing the door that I would surely get ripped apart if I tried. Or blown up.
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPdaQHe8TA
I walk around the building and see a dumpster up against the shed. I climb onto the dumpster then climb onto the roof of the shed. I slowly peak into the window of the second floor and see one German standing at the stairs aiming down. He isn't paying attention to me.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3lFgTtTvy
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5IM3Ekra5
I aim my colt at the German and shoot two times hitting the German both times. I quickly kick what’s left of the window, shattering it bits. I run to the stairs and the Germans run outside the door.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcGFZZXBXB
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpIkdWitaq
The thing I left on the body shoots up three feet in the air and explodes killing two Germans. The last German runs towards the Marines and I chase after him.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86MNQ1VltK
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KxyVv0gbW
He is very fast, even I can't catch up to him. It doesn't help that my wounded leg is hindering my speed significantly. I try shooting a couple times at him, but I missed. I need to stop to get a good shot, but I don't think I can hit him at this distance anyways. I’m wondering why he isn't shooting back at me.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8D3hZ8ZHO7
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLOlgJ05zt
I follow the German only to notice that he is charging the Marines from behind. The Marines are in sight and the German is running straight for Captain Cucumber.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjf5LwLf1F
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NvE3R09Fx
I attempt to yell but I'm out of breath, so it wasn't very loud. My only chance is to shoot him. I stop and look down the sights of the colt. I hesitate to pull the trigger because if I miss I may hit Captain Cucumber or another Marine. Here goes nothing.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMJzJkL2yO

393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Vp0Jlm5KO
I hit the German in the back and he falls to the ground. Cucumber and a few marines turn around, likely because they heard my shot.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV8R4ePvh6
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufgVIGTOu2
Cucumber waves me to come to him. I jog over to him and he says, "you saved American lives kid, and I thank you."393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9racewt7A
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XWxqJaZkE
"Welcome, but there was a squad of six Germans that were coming from the rear. I handled them, but the Germans will certainly try sending more through there," I said.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitjgB4fXUk
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLHJWtda54
"Where did they come from?" said the Captain.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfVTvikl68

"There is a road just over there," I said pointing where I saw the Germans come from. At least where I think I remember.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIa5NgAdDZ

"Corporal take your squad over there and defend it," ordered Captain Cucumber to a soldier beside him.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMPl2M6jih

"Sir the Northern flank is falling and they request reinforcements," said a Marine with a radio in his hand. I thought about the ones we just wore on our ear and wonder why he has that bulky backpack which is the radio itself still. Then again, we were testing the prototype.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32ccnNJJxt
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySxusFOzBJ
"Fuck we don't have much to send. I'll take ten soldiers from here and go myself," said Captain Cucumber.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3MV6wo0Sr

"Ready yourselves troops! Almost there!" announced the Captain.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O5ZM0S6cW
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3CvX9Xw4G
I see a road up ahead that turns right, and I think that’s our destination. There are buildings in the way, so we can’t see the Marines yet.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadvz2CsDz1
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVdEYpxSWn
"Just around this corner!" said Cucumber.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4WWAhav66
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOLyG3tfyC
Captain Cucumber turns the corner and pauses, he drops to his knees with the look of Hell in his eyes. I turn the corner and see sixty to seventy Marine bodies flooding the ground. Not much ahead of the bodies are German soldiers, walking towards us. They start to shoot at us and I grab Captain Cucumber and drag him back behind the corner.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbdwElOdNk
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPjRwmNwMH
"Captain are you hit?" asked a Marine.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5NHr8Pxz4
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEOTSFzUQK
The Captain stares blankly into space without answering. His eyes go watery and he starts to cry.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjXOadhfZI
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItWCNvq1bD
"Captain. We have to keep fighting. We can't let those soldiers die in vain," I said.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eBwUUWoFo

"So many precious American lives taken away by heathens. Those soldiers each fought and died for our great country," Cucumber takes a cross from around his neck and holds it in his hand and looks up to the sky saying. "As god as my witness, I will give each of those soldiers a funeral fit for a hero. I will personally tell each of their family's how proud they should be for their lost loved ones. I will make sure they are remembered throughout history. But only the winners get to remember history. For our lost comrades! For our family's!! For our homes!!!

393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RsfMD9PQq
The Germans start falling back. Their numbers get smaller as we get closer. We only lost a few Marines so far and we are almost to the dead Marine field.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpi98GLuq6
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHKvH7oXhU
Cucumber runs ahead of all of us and point-blank sprays down ten Germans with his Thompson. A German goes to melee him and Cucumber pulls out a pistol and kills the German. Cucumber kills another ten Germans single handedly.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGVMcc4pje
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibQnB2UyeN
Suddenly I hear chanting behind me. I turn around and see a massive army of marines running to us.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96XvRpzj4f
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5YSdas5JQ
"It's the Colonel! Support the Captain from here and let the others catch up!" said a soldier beside me.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0h6yKqNCl
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVroU5BZIzp

"NOOO!" Yelled the Colonel as Cucumber drops to his knees.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmSM4vzQYP
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCAiukJWCC
Captain Cucumber smiles and quickly gets to his feet and turns around with the swords still in him. He grabs the two samurai and pulls them into their own blades. He then pushed them away and pulls the blades from his back.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwHWS11ali
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46XAcOYTZj

393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDVx5jGvmU
The Colonel grabs Cucumbers Thompson with his left hand while he holds his own in his right. His eyes are blood red and his head starts shaking. His tears of sorrow turned to tears of hatred.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgskkWvPUQ

393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgBwtZSSqQ
The Colonel stands up and charges at the Germans spraying with both Thompsons. Me and the Marines try to follow him, but we are too exposed to be so aggressive. The Colonel guns his way into the middle of the enemy's force. It's unbelievable that he hasn't been killed yet.
The Colonel sprayed down around thirty soldiers himself. A few Marines try to join the Colonel only to get gunned down by German fire. I start to realize that the hostiles aren't just Germans. There are Japanese soldiers as well. The hostiles start to close in on the Colonel and its apparent that they want him alive.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwOulnh9qU
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEH8n4P9sL
A Jap with a bayonet charges the Colonel from behind and the Colonel turns around and uses his left Thompson to block the bayonet while he uses the right Thompson to shoot two Germans who were on the other side of him. He then kicks the Jap down and unloads both Thompson’s into him.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaVAKV4nl9
393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTCooUqd91
The Colonel's Thompsons run out of ammo and more hostiles close in on him. Me and several Marines try to get to the Colonel, but the hostiles are making sure we don't interfere by gunning down anyone exposed.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhrAUiC051

The hostiles go into a full retreat and I realize the soldiers that came to help us where familiar. They are people from my school back at home I believe.

I walk over to Captain Cucumbers body and have a moment of silence. I want to feel sad but a part of me tells me this is what he wanted. All his follower’s all lay behind him in a way that seems staged. He was their company leader and it only makes sense to be in the front center. The smile on his lifeless face tells the whole story.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutkCFrqt2a

I kneel beside him and shut his eyes. I notice something in his right hand. I open his fist and see his cross tangled with 2 red strings that he got from the tattooed guys. I take them from his hand.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdC5E84hu2h

I go back over to Cucumber and stare at his body. I feel like I could have saved him. Anger and guilt fills my mind and I wish it was me there instead of him.393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlEsYU8lb6

"I never got to repay him for what he did for me. And there is no way I can now," I said.
“Just because he's no longer with us it doesn't mean you can't repay him,” said Alfeo. “I know that is not the only thing on your mind though, now what else is bothering you."393Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P7Ls2PvBh
