Unexpectedly, the story Continues (Please bear with Fantasy and stuff, it's interesting to make story this way :))
Chapter V
The Flicker of Hope
That evening on the Serene Mountain summit, Fraulina standing in the front of a big rock with a name written on it. As she looking at it, a single tear drips down from her right blue eye as she remember something so painful from her memories. (If only I know that's gonna happened, this will not happening). She takes off her hood, A cold breeze began to blow, she folded her hands around body with her hand as the cold started to coiling around her body.
The Sun start to dissapear to the west, Fraulina turn around to see Belyy, who bring lots of flowers in her hands. "Fraulina, what happened?" She ask. But without saying anything, Fraulina starting to walk past her, this makes Belyy confused. Fraulina stop near a path that leads downhill, from there she can see a vast Atlantic Ocean. She takes off her officer cap, letting the breeze wavering her long, beautifull hair, she look at the silver strip on her cap, where an emblem is supposed to be there.
Moments later, Belyy is catching up to her "Fraulina! wait!" She run and stopped right next to her.
"Hey, Belyy, what year is now?" Fraulina ask
"Eh..? it's 2018 now"
"So it's been 73 years..."
"What?"
Fraulina makes a slight smile, she look at the beautiful ghost beside her "Will you lend me some of those Lily?" she ask as she put her cap back to her head, "Sure" Belyy answered. Belyy gives some of her flower to Fraulina, and they began to walked back to the 'grave', kneeling down, she arrange the flower in front of the central rock, alongside the raindrop flowers. Belyy, who is standing behind her, is looking confused.
"Do you know something about this grave?"
"I just happend to know these people, thats all..."
"What?"
"Ehm, it's nothing, Lets go!" Fraulina stands up and suddenly grabbed Belyy hand, pulling her "Eh?! G-Go? Go to where?", But Fraulina is not answering and continue to drag her donwhill.
After a long trip far east back to Germany, they arrived at the Alps, a mountain range that border Austria and Germany, It's already night by the time they arrived at the entrance of a thick forest, at the valley of Zugpitze. In the forest, Fraulina and Belyy walking along an old road that leads to uncertain area, with moonlight, mist, and sound of an owl accompanying them. Belyy feel uneasy about this and hold tightly into Fraulina's arms as they slowly walk.
"Stop clinging into me would you?" Fraulina trying to get Belyy off her hands, "But-But, I'm scared..." (Useless Ghost). "I always wonder, how could you live in that old house alone if you afraid of dark..." She sighed. "Well..., I always turn the lights on and locking the windows..." She said. Suddenly a cracking sound makes Belyy jumped into Fraulina and the two of them fell down "Ugh..., What the Fuck is wrong with you?" She said agrily "Sorry..."
They walking deep into the hearts of the forest, the thundercloud start gathering in the sky, blocking off the moonlight, moments later, they arrived at some kind of Old Japanese Torii Gate with a long stairs leading up to small hill.
"Um..., Where are we heading to exactly, and why are we bringing this shovels?" she said with a nervous voice, "We're going to visit someone's home" Fraulina answered. They climb the stairs, it's soo high and tiring, but they eventually reach the hilltop, where they find a building that looks like an abandoned shrine. "Uh...Eto... this...?" Belyy shudered as she stares at the creepy building "Ja, let's go to backyard" said Fraulina.
They circle around the building to find a big tombstone at the the backyard, it's so worn out and covered in moss, "So, She still here..., right! let's started to dig!" Fraulina said with excitement. "Wh-Wh-What the hell?" Belyy who can't stand the horror of the scene started to cover her eyes. After few minutes digging, Fraulina's shovel hit something hard, it's a wooden coffin with a Chinese word 'Curse' on it. Without further delay, Fraulina used her shovel to open the coffin.
Inside the coffin, there is a corpse of a young looking girl with an ancient chinese dress, a pale blue skin and a hair tied in braids. Fraulina grab her by her shoulder to a siting position and... "Wake up moron! you're sleep long enough! she said this as she whack the girl's cheek, "Kyaaaaaaa!" Belyy who watching this screams in terror. Suddenly, the corpse girl eyes opened, glowing purple as if it's been cursed, "Who dare to interrupt my sleep?!" she said angrily.
"Good Morning~" Fraulina said this with a false smile on her face, suddenly the girl expression is turing pale "Y-Y-You? I thought you're already dead?!" she said in panic. "Who do you think I'am?" she said as she continue to whack the girl's cheeks. "Okay, okay, please stop whacking me already!"
"Sorry"
"Lets go inside, It's more warm and comfortable to talk in there" said the girl as she rummaging her coffin to find a key.
The girl opened the Shrine door by unlocking a lock on the keyhole behind a padlock, and they go inside. The outside of the shrine may look aweful and dirty, but the inside is clean and well maintained.
In the big room where a fireplace lit, Fraulina and The Girl is talking about something, while Belyy taking a nap because she is exausted from her long journey with Fraulina.
"So youre still alive after all" said the girl "I know, you still can't beleived that I'm in front of you right now" said Fraulina
"So why you coming here? do you need something from me?" ask the girl with her arms folded, "I just want some information from you, since you are our trusted informant"
"Well, I'm not eavesdropping again since 1960s, so you can't ask much from me..."
"Okay, do you know what happened to my army after I got defeated that day?" she ask with a serious expression. "Hmm..., from what I hear your army got massacre, but strangely, their bodies never get found after war..." ,
"Is that so..." Fraulina lower her head, looking at the floor.
"Don't worry, I still have another info, It is said that there is some sightings in various place around the world about people from your army, it's just a rumor, but if thats true, they maybe still alive"
"So thats why..., I can still feel their precence somewhere" Fraulina start to regain her hope. "Youre a great leader, General, maybe your connection with them is not just a mere simple relationship..., thats why you can still feel their precence..."
The cold night continues as their hot discussion almost come to an end, a light rain started to coming down outside, the sound of rain makes the two of them feels a bit relaxed.
Fraulina makes a slight smile "I have to find them!" hearing this The Girl is a bit surprised "But how do you will go search for them? the reports of their location are from around the world!" she said it loudly
"It's no problem with me, maybe there will be some problem, but as a Leader, I can't just sit here without knowing the condition of my Comrades" she folded her hand and smash the wooden floor, making a hole.
The Girl smiled "Okay, I get it, but you need some money during your journey, do you have some?"
Fraulina rubbing her pocket, there is just a shirt button inside..."Uh..., nein..." she sighed "Do you have any info about job that paid well?"
"Hmm..." The girl started to exploring her head looking for an info, it's hard becaused of her brains are full of information documents. After a few minutes, she snap out of her minds. "If I'm not wrong, there is a Elite School called 'Panzer Elite Academy' at the town of Nebelburg, and they always short of employee becaused of their requirement to enter as a teacher"
Fraulina seems interested in this and started to ask more "Oh, what kind of requirement do they need?"
"It depends on your choice of category, but it is said that so many people have failed at the entry test, either student or teacher"
"Hmph! I'll try it then!" Fraulina said it with excitement.
The rain is getting heavier and the temperature is dropping, but Fraulina and The Girl is warm because of a huge fireplace in front of them. They feel comfortable for the first time since the end of World War II. The girl want to break the boring silent of the night and started talking. "By the way, who is that ghost girl?" she ask "Oh, she is the one who rescue me when I'm buried in the snow at the bottom of the cliff" she said as she rubbing a wounds on her body. "Hmm~ She sure wrapped those bandages with
feelings, look at that ribbons at the side~" tease her, "Yeah" -_-. By the way, do this shrine have a bathroom?" ask Fraulina, "Of course, it's at the back, but it's a traditional bathroom, you have to heat the water yourself if you want to take a bath"
"Well, I guess I have no choice..." Fraulina sighed as she heading to bathroom.
Fraulina walk into bathroom, she look around, a bit small but clean japanese style bathroom with a wooden bathtub, to the left of changing room, there is a room with fireplace to heat the water. Fraulina filled the bathtub with water, then take a couple of fire logs from the box and lit in inside the fireplace. "Sure this is a hard work..." after a few minutes, the water inside the tub is warming up. In the changing room just outside the bathroom, She carefully takes of the bandages from her body, revealing her slender figure. "Well, looks like the wound is completely healed" she then takes off her tattered uniform and put it into small basket, and finally, she takes off her stocking and panties.
Fraulina picked a towel hanging beside the door, wrapped it around her body and enter the bathroom, already filled with warm steam, She hang her towel and enter the tub, feeling a warm sensation around her body. "Haaaah, night bath once in a while is nice..." As she enjoyed herself, someone can be heard knocking the door. "General, is the bath still okay?" Fraulina heard the Girl's voice from the other side of wooden door "Ah, yes it's still good" she answered "Okay, take your time inside~".
"Hehehe~ it's payback time for what she did to me earlier~"
Fraulina getting out of the tub and pickup a soap to clean her body, as she wash her body, she somehow feeling uneasy. (Somethings wrong... why it's so quiet...) she then wash her body with a bucket of water and go back inside the tub, she take a look at the outside from the small window next to her.
"Maybe it's just my imagination..."
Not long after that, a strange purple mist coming in from the window and filling the bathroom. Fraulina head suddenly feels heavy and her consciousness is fading away (Not good... I have... to get out...). With her last remaining strenght, She stands up and pick up a towel and wrap her body with it, but nevertheless, it's useless. Fraulina passed out, lying beside the tub.
Hearing her collapsing sound, The Zombie girl enters the bathroom with only towel wrapped around her pale blue skin. "Hehehe~ no one can't stay awake from this poison mist, now then lets have some fun~" The girl closing on her, and she start to fondle Fraulina's breast with excitement, she then shoved her face into her clevelage, she feel so happy and relaxed as those bouncy thing around her face is fulfilling her 60 years desire...
-Meanwhile-
Belyy is waking up from her short nap, she wear her glass and looked at the clock, it's already 10.30 pm (Oh well, I haven't take a bath yet) She walk out of her room, looking around the shrine for bathroom, after liotering around, she found herself at the backdoor, looking around outside, she found a mysterious glowing charm on the wall (It's like the one that girl always carry, maybe she forget to bring it inside). Belyy take the charm off the wall and bring it inside. Somehow, it stopped glowing. Belyy continue to looking for bathroom, she notice a wooden door in the hallway leading to backdoor.
(How can I not seeing this door?) she sighed. In the changing room she saw a steam coming from bathroom, she also notice some clothes placed in the basket "Hello, is anyone in there?" she asked, but no one answer (Maybe they already use this bathroom and sleep) she thought. taking off her ghostly clothes off, Belyy went straight passing through the door...
Only to find that Zombie girl is trying to kiss Fraulina...
Seeing this, her face turned bright red. "W-w-what the fuck are you doing?" Belyy run to try stopping her. The zombie girl snap out of her mind and look around to see a naked ghost running towards her.
"Oh, crap..." unfortunately Belyy doesn't see a soap lying on the floor and stepping on it, making her slipped and falling towards the two.
*Crashing Sound*
"Gaaaaack!" Fraulina cried out as the zombie girl's head ramming her stomach.
"Owowow" Belyy and Zombie girl cried in pain. As they try to get up, they realize that their hand were grabbing something, they look up... to find one of each their hand are groping Fraulina's breast...
"Do you girls really want my chest that badly~?" She said with a false smile written all over her face. "Eto..." the two girls face turned pale seeing her.
Fraulina angrily grope their head and smashing them into each other with full force, knocking them lights out.
Later in the main room, the two spiritual girls is seen siting in front of Fraulina with their heads looking down. "Now then, how can you gals explain?" When the two look at her, they saw her left eyes turning sharp bright red, as if it was a blood, with a fireplace behind her, she looks like a demon from hell who want to make them as dinner, especialy with that false smile all over her face.
"We're Sooorryyyy!" they're bowing their head begging for mercy.
"Hmph!, well, I let you girls go this time, but I'm still gonna punish you two!" she said
The two girls shudder in fear as they hear this.
"But, unfortunately, it's already late now, I punish you guys sometimes later"
"Eh?" they feel releived and collapse on the floor. Belyy, thinking of what's gonna happened to her, closed her eyes and try to relax, while the Zombie girl still look confused about something.
"Hey, the heck you trying to do to her?" Belyy ask
"Oh..., well.. um... I was drunk and can't control myself..." (Of course it's a lie)
"Hmm..." Belyy unsure with her answer
"By the way, I don't know your name yet"
"Oh, Then let me introduce myself, My name is Jian Lin, I'm a WZ-111 Alpine Tiger from China"
"My name is White Tiger, just call me Belyy, a VK4501" (Wow, we are The Two Tigers, hehe)
They happily sharing about each other and chatting until midnight, unknowingly to them, Fraulina is smiling to them from the hallway.
The next Morning, the fog from last night rain makes the forest look calm and fresh, Fraulina, Belyy and Lin gathered at the bottom of the stairs leading to the shrine.
"Thanks for your erm... hospitality Lin, I will go to Nebelburg now"
"But, how will we get there, I can't walk anymore..." complain Belyy
"How about I give you girls a lift there? it's a good change since I haven't change my form for 60 years"
"Ah, if that's fine with you, okay, please lend us your support"
Lin standing in the middle of the road, preparing her energy. "Change! WZ-111!"
The wind suddenly blowing, and from out of nowhere, a horde of charm appears spinning around Lin, shortly after, a bright light strikes and a WZ-111 with a tiger carving pattern appears in front of Fraulina and Belyy.
"Come on, mount up!"
They climb her tracks and enter her fighting compartment through her hatches.
"It's a bit rusty here"
"Well sorry about that" -_-
Lin started her engine, and they began their journey to the town of Nebelburg.
