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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Dq23dRYVd
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsJhdZnpO1
"Where is JJ?" I asked.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeU4daKLzj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9OE6QU6W5
"Dylan, you're awake!" acknowledged Bert.
“Yeah, thanks for the lift man, I can use my own legs at this point,” I said.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssaiEaTZMH
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt77JxcWzdd
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,"425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8jRd3UW93
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwy8Kd1I5r
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvQgqNKFFH
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV8JBICTBx
"I’m perfectly fine now. Just needed a nap," I said.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYwCdy5MkR
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jRnQ0eguq
"Dylan. I can tell when you lie," said Bert.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XRaQRRSgq
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XU6KtxR4f
"It was worth a shot,” I shrugged. “Where is JJ?"425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZynn0EtR2Q
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqR9PKWUyJp
"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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2m7JnGNIu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMf2YjZMqrL
"So Bert just carried me around?" I said.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGDt1hrZqe
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKrrtXgZTn
"We were going to take you to the barracks where the rest of the rejected patients go," said PoopStain.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OXVHpZzA1
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83fKTj2bsu
"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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyunVrCRjC
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmZfk2YT8M
"Fine," I said.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5oTvsYiLG
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrLe1cvCAQ
"That was not what I was expecting you to say," said Bert giving me a weird look.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbvfyP2XAw
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvgjD7sBIk
"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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJy4XJiY4H
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxRswwNAKb
"Ok. Me and Bert will go defend the hospital with the others," said PoopStain.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8LtNRZhnu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLC8a7mS7f
"Oh yeah. JJ told me to give you this," said Bert handing me JJ’s engraved colt and a couple spare clips.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMycjpFk9W
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLIJhMxn8a
"Why would he do that?" I asked.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhV5QMH5j6
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J0v5PmYWN
"Neither of you will be needing it so it doesn't really make a difference. But we really need to get going," said PoopStain.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhLlqv0Mt1
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPATPV7cZr
"Alright get going," I said.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrO5I5Njyh
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCLpQ2EiKG
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvitaH6x9Yg
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKhqVHR6b1
I hear a nearby fire fight and I follow the sounds.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14LLpGJfD2
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMVktsKGkb
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZiTzINsei
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKgjtMlh3j
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEL9uqPGrIM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7ZerPwlDH
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe77srPTZAi
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOo1tmuZ78
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmPUvs69lf
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMvyxnbYcc
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgzmlkNbAo
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoCseaLY62
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSaYmzoUic
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiKYkSIA2J
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9RiqNZbkI
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HMkb5qPCN
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XokmWVLNU
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOFuwiKNOu
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8NRG35Fg8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50jLSRZMn2
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.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP77WWO52V
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMTq1I5Ztj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSrp6AVAZn
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppzPO97dr8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqhHJBTeNJ
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSepTEH8LKw
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJR9XSGp3e
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYw4DP8rBY6
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm99n5LBMLV
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrqux1yns0
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZ5OvdqOZ1
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAhFsyrECk

*Bang*425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFcg7KZxpG
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pdOBtwo6G
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rALZIGhQA
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQUs59qmWG
Cucumber waves me to come to him. I jog over to him and he says, "you saved American lives kid, and I thank you."425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ744HpN4XIw
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrSsQvQgkY
"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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqjR04A1aC
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPdoz7mC58
"Where did they come from?" said the Captain.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3k6gKHQj6
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoJ4cR4C6Z
"There is a road just over there," I said pointing where I saw the Germans come from. At least where I think I remember.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrmXI08E5Y

"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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzykmCOLLb
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqFHAuLjnj
"Fuck we don't have much to send. I'll take ten soldiers from here and go myself," said Captain Cucumber.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VHzTFEY2Z

"Ready yourselves troops! Almost there!" announced the Captain.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtm1y4QKO0
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIoMmJksxv
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgZg8HGw9e
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqPBdRp2qh
"Just around this corner!" said Cucumber.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Naz18PEpM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLN14eKW7X
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsfBanwi1U
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0DcZosvrr
"Captain are you hit?" asked a Marine.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVjuBuU6CG
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ189U2BpjWY
The Captain stares blankly into space without answering. His eyes go watery and he starts to cry.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm7SQgrOS0
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHXuhXtW92
"Captain. We have to keep fighting. We can't let those soldiers die in vain," I said.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOZBGxtAe6

"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!!!

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3y1dSvTLr
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EPWQEdKgM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbDBR2DU67
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeSUo5wnXY
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rKTwHFF2P
Suddenly I hear chanting behind me. I turn around and see a massive army of marines running to us.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5jXMckl1G
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVWeSUjd4o
"It's the Colonel! Support the Captain from here and let the others catch up!" said a soldier beside me.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPZk6E4mwX

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf8i20N4iL
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoGCnDymma

"They will pay for this. They will fucking pay!" warned the Colonel followed by a terrifying evil war cry.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3zTlvs7xx
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXRncpfm85
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRvWQCCheu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQofOklXLd
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vLOlRXFNN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuq3Zn3rYJH
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgz2xp0rtAN

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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyKOBIkqtw

Agent comes over to us over hearing PoopStain and asked, "was the Colonel a Seal too?"425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKo4CZ7Yf3S
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnJy8MVjVi
"No, but we did fight together in the last war," said PoopStain.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKx3bJx9Lv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFsX7hYUkv
"Who is he?" asked Agent.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuaQJn1Bwj

"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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQ1K25W4mI

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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOegshvbChN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiKR2VrynD
"What's troubling you?" said Alfeo somehow knowing something is wrong.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvi4xj3gk5
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8b5d7Jprx
"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."425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu402tfTXc

"Why is it that nobody's like me live, while heroes like Cucumber die," I said.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpV2MCXOzw1

"Nobody's?" said what sounded like Bert.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyk2LX7yHlm
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7cJgJruki
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.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPivfG8Tgij

"Well that's what I am," I said.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMPrtDVr1l

Me and the others look at each other wondering what is funny.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOc3v0Ldlj

"You guys are not nobody's," Bert made known with a grin.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRcjPUwNNV
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bgT8t6Cs6
"Then who are we?" I asked.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0T3plaAzL
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLG9jf8aA5E
There is a long pause and we wait patiently for Bert to answer.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IVOFY1zVJ
