Chapter One

My first story! Don't judge me.


It had been a cold night considering it was only October and Lebeau, Newkirk and Carter were coming back from a mission. Hogan had received a message the day before from the underground wanting them to pick up some film that had pictures of new German weapons on them. They were to meet there contact at the abandoned house on the old Cedar Road.

All went well and they were on there way back to stalag 13. That's when it all began.

"'Cause we gon' rock this club We gon' go all night We gon' light it up Like it's dynamite!

'Cause I told you once Now I told you twice We gon' light it up Like it's dynamite..."*

"Carter will you knock it off with your ruddy singin!" Newkirk snapped "A patrol is goin' to 'ere you" Carter gave Newkirk a sheepish grin "sorry, singing songs help me when I'm sca-...Do you like strawberries? I like strawberries. My mom used to..." Newkirk gave Carter *the look* "you were goin' to say ruddy scared weren't you?"

"Well not the ruddy part"

"You knew what I meant. So what's got you all hung up?"

"Well, do you know what day it is?"

"Wednesday"

"No I mean the date"

"Let's see now...I'd be...October 31"

Just then a lightbulb went off in Newkirk's head. He laughed. "Andrew I've never know you to be the superstitious type" Newkirk gave Carter a cheeky grin. "Now you don't think there'd be any ghost running around now do you? Ya know I bet there's probably one right behind us now. Searching for some human soul to feast upon. It's been looking and looking for his favorite meal...boys from Bull Fog, North Dakota. But in the middle of Germany it's almost impossible. But still he won't give up hope. Finally he finds ones. Walking through the forest next to a handsome englander."

Lebeau who had remained quite this whole started acting out what Newkirk was saying. "Closer and closer he comes step by step"

Carter's eyes which kept getting bigger and bigger with every sentence were now the size of tomatoes. "finally puts on the evilest grin he can manage and and taking a deep breath he shouts..."

"BOO!" Came Lebeau's ear splitting voice. "Aaah!" Carter hollered. Newkirk and Lebeau burst out laughing tears streaming down their face. "You should have seen your face" Lebeau managed to say in between his chuckling. Carter was still trying to catch his breath. Suddenly Newkirk stopped laughing.

"Cor Blimey" he muttered. "What is it?" Asked Lebeau. "The patrols...we completely forgot about them" Just then they heard shot being fired.

"Run!" Newkirk shouted. They all took off in different directions. Newkirk went left, Lebeau kept straight and Carter who had come out of shock when he heard the shots went right. They ran for a good half mile, zig-zagging in between the trees, before they lost the patrols. "Bloody 'ell, "Newkirk sighed. "That was close." He stopped and leaned against an oak tree.

When he had his breath back went to search for the others. After no more than 10ft Lebeau approached him. After making sure he was alright, Newkirk asked "Where's Carter?"

"You mean you don't have him?"

"No, I thought you 'ad 'im!" Newkirk sighed "and 'e 'ad the film too, if the Gestapo found him..." He couldn't finish the sentence. " Do not worry mon ami," Lebeau put a hand on Newkirk's shoulder. "Andre can take care of himself." Just then they heard a terrifying scream. "Can he?" Newkirk announced as they took off to where the scream had come from.
