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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorx3CncKJY
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkYE8tMOKX
"Where is JJ?" I asked.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiioKmCM5mO
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFNCu004Ha
"Dylan, you're awake!" acknowledged Bert.
“Yeah, thanks for the lift man, I can use my own legs at this point,” I said.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInEEDge7yw
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlm3wPdxY4i
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,"400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciPkYtchYH
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZd3ym8QZk
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VrFFdguCI
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwutRxX3EFH
"I’m perfectly fine now. Just needed a nap," I said.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboLEN5Zbe1
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gu1zSvROn
"Dylan. I can tell when you lie," said Bert.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ulwHJlZQ8
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKiF2DK6ZE
"It was worth a shot,” I shrugged. “Where is JJ?"400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb300CWB6iL
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME3Vbg5YcI
"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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCHGQ0OwgM
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuoqHU7wN4
"So Bert just carried me around?" I said.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLO0zOhedg
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkCLXfidXL
"We were going to take you to the barracks where the rest of the rejected patients go," said PoopStain.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNVONJf7BC
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHimvHJtyY
"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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPm1nBA1ZcH
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqw5fm99YA
"Fine," I said.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmZTfynd85
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YaasgQdSC
"That was not what I was expecting you to say," said Bert giving me a weird look.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiDpyKW9ak
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5zOB421FA
"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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmbKDSPpsq
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizGgkWDeuN
"Ok. Me and Bert will go defend the hospital with the others," said PoopStain.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEk070NEUp
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MbAsbKtqx
"Oh yeah. JJ told me to give you this," said Bert handing me JJ’s engraved colt and a couple spare clips.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfuYlyi4nu
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3O8IE4cgOn
"Why would he do that?" I asked.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bqclbMPju
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDRdRQrB3f
"Neither of you will be needing it so it doesn't really make a difference. But we really need to get going," said PoopStain.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjCN8046if
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYXrLnfcHx
"Alright get going," I said.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4phJ16QAs
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qPLj2G8fz
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXk0TbyHoc
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhu2lnmZMTd
I hear a nearby fire fight and I follow the sounds.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1k2jOlQzu
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgI9kCfvav
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0PMkq8JwB
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0K39BUVdi
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVM8EELhGaf
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqmC48XG3n
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPw8NHGDXY
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4G7MGObSA
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNakVR1Tds3
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYu5SDG3VX
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyrGFe24Kj
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepu6XsifbJ
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMtLzTBlrL
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMDU0euE7T
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpONBzk0ahz
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVDu2Ep0kL
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vgp5H9Ktb
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHao7BXzgk
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmD1AS71Cn
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqzwd0fGBC
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.
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhpnspG6jj
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoUwzpiM9a
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNw7p0QtSXV
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3foszVObM
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUajQ41Ixe
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKP0LDnyoH
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcptAl7csgQ
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3gt5IEGE2
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeDg9Vl0N8
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssZWmQfZTf
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡht6b4qwd14
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1nzxeV74H

400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpm4dDbT1u
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJRtImXEI8
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKruPeRdSl
Cucumber waves me to come to him. I jog over to him and he says, "you saved American lives kid, and I thank you."400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk00P77Q5Re

"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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodCGvPHnKm
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKogFWGjcS1
"Where did they come from?" said the Captain.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡja17Il9Au5

"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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7ekceqC1m
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJccyQ6cgb
"Fuck we don't have much to send. I'll take ten soldiers from here and go myself," said Captain Cucumber.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eHGP7eUbR

"Ready yourselves troops! Almost there!" announced the Captain.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLigie45ag
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YpMna8Id8
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhXXwVMQ5H
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9BW7D0iTJ
"Just around this corner!" said Cucumber.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOVy9Gm163
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPivrNEaJQ8
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAuH36BT9U
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSi2lEGFqE
"Captain are you hit?" asked a Marine.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnC1PvLIheQ
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BXoLsCAkW
The Captain stares blankly into space without answering. His eyes go watery and he starts to cry.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Oj7FxZXXE
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamDV5T0DlP
"Captain. We have to keep fighting. We can't let those soldiers die in vain," I said.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqthYtAuz2d

"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!!!

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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5nsX8T0EG
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRz59p5Prvd
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmpcU3Y0rU

400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr39DSQm05h
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8soZoEHwG

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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvErYEpCuY
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnVYh81W45
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2qlev8TY4

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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmvOn08hKf

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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8WhRla2hK

Agent comes over to us over hearing PoopStain and asked, "was the Colonel a Seal too?"400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESf4FiBGDr
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAlVmAPaqw
"No, but we did fight together in the last war," said PoopStain.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdAI2ecEK8
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNc6Zec2RZ
"Who is he?" asked Agent.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg5Oow5gRj
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX8oNkjSkV
"His name is Shepherd. And I thought he was dead," said PoopStain.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9Orl1Y6sL

"I just can't believe it. I saw him,"- "save it for another day. Today is meant for honoring the fallen heroes," said Alfeo interrupting PoopStain.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEw9OLTv9lK
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbvsGoVULU
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.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nwufPTKn9

"What's troubling you?" said Alfeo somehow knowing something is wrong.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXJIqUGHys
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgQLpTblE8
"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."400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdlUquXsnG

"Why is it that nobody's like me live, while heroes like Cucumber die," I said.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCp8vriDlp
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9C0QCJDw0F
"Nobody's?" said what sounded like Bert.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlkmMY2kyL
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOjhsWgTNT
I see Bert followed by Destroyer and Andrew on both sides of JJ helping him keep the weight off his legs. As well as Ashton, Sean, Connor, Hunter, Kyle, Reznikov, the General, the other hooded brothers, Julius and Wetherby.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrSvSAznLu

"Well that's what I am," I said.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGrhFb0nQe

"All of us kids are. We aren't like you ex Seals. We are just nobody's," said Destroyer.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNa8wHqdZSb

"Then who are we?" I asked.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JJPRzYUzV

There is a long pause and we wait patiently for Bert to answer.400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYxU6jNoQc
