Ch. 1: The Graveyard
"Not another step of I'll shot."
"You give that to me Rolfe"
"…I'll kill you."
Liesl walking towards the car heard these words uttered by the one she used to love. Tears filled in her eyes. How could he do this to them? She thought Rolfe had really loved her. Still Liesl felt the whole predicament was her fault because she had made noise when discovering Rolfe was a Nazi. She turned around knowing what she had to do.
"Liesl!" Maria called as she watched her daughter run back to the graveyard. "Come back this instant!" Maria watched hopelessly as Liesl continued to run. "Freidrich, make sure your sisters and brother get in the car safely." He nodded as Maria ran back with Liesl. She ran back and found Rolfe pointing the gun point blank at her husband.
"Rolfe, don't you dare, stop it!" Liesl cried in terror. Rolfe looked over at Liesl and became even angrier.
"Rolfe, you will never be one of them." Liesl continued, further infuriating Rolfe. He pointed the gun and shot at Georg's leg. Georg tried to move but it the bullet pierced his skin causing an unexpected scream from him. Liesl tried to run to him, but Maria stopped her.
"Liesl, listen to me. Get into the car right this second. It is for your own good. Please. I will take care of this." Liesl, through her tears nodded and ran back to the car. Maria ran over to Georg, as Rolfe was about to call for the Lieutenant. He was shocked to see her.
"Georg are you alright?" Maria asked kneeling down and comforting him.
"Maria, I thought I told you to stay in the car." Georg told her slowly wincing in pain. "Go back please, let them take me save the children and yourself."
"No, I will never leave you." Maria told him under her breath. Rolfe circled the two and then suddenly pointed a gun at Georg.
"So do you surrender Captain? We seem to have won. If you do not you will be dead." Rolfe told him. Georg looked down at Maria's face. He didn't want to do either.
"Answer me!" Rolfe said putting the gun to Georg's heart. Georg began to shake his head when Rolfe got impatient.
"Answer now or die!" He said coldly beginning to pull the trigger. Maria saw him pull it and leaped in front of Georg. Instead of hitting Georg the bullet landed right on Maria's ankle. Rolfe froze frightened at what would happen to him for shooting a woman. He still did not like the fact of harming innocent people, even if the Nazis wouldn't think of it as bad. In his shock the whistle fell from his mouth.
"Georg?" Maria said wincing in pain. "Leave now please. I think Rolfe is in shock, please leave."
"I'm not leaving without you, come on." He told her. Georg wanted to carry his wife out, but to his utter dismay he found he could not do it safely. They began to try to crawl out of danger. Maria was behind Georg when she noticed the Rolfe walking in yet again talking to someone.
"The Captain got away you see and I tried to kill him, but then I misfired and shot his wife Maria, who is still here." Rolfe told the man. Maria faced Georg in the shadows.
"Georg, go, quick. If you stay we will be in even more trouble now that Rolfe told that lie. Please go." Maria told him.
"Maria, I am not leaving you here to let the Nazis kill you." He told her.
"They won't. I am to smart for them." Maria croaked.
"You have been shot and you have never been at war before how do you think you can survive?" Georg asked unconvinced.
"God…" Maria cried as someone pulled her up on her feet.
"Is this her?" Asked a Nazi officer.
"Yes." Rolfe said sadly. He had hoped they would both escape. Little did he know the wounds he had made were the reason they were unable to slip away.
Georg rolled over in the shadows coming out trying to help Maria.
"Who is this?" The Nazi demanded.
"Oh he is that strange man I have been telling you about that wants to be a Nazi badly, but can't fight because of his age." Rolfe lied to him. The Nazis officer went over to him and knocked Georg out cold.
"When he wakes up he will never remember any of this." The Nazi said. He glanced down and smiled evilly at Maria. Maria glanced up terrified by the pain in her foot and by the Nazis horrifying look.
