This chapter was requested by John.B-1859. He's a huge history fan, while I most certainly am not. His request was based on an actual historical event so I had to do some research. If you guys wish to understand what's going on in this chapter, I highly suggest reading the introduction of the Wikipedia article 'Raising a Flag over the Reichstag'. Honestly, just reading the introduction will suffice.

Disclaimer: I do not own YuruYuri. It belongs to Namori.


Hey, Yuruyuri Student Council members! You are soldiers of the Red Army and have finally managed to capture the Reichstag. A famous soviet photographer is on the scene. He wants to photograph the triumphant red banner of socialism waving over the crumbled fascist lair! So who gets to hold the flag, and be immortalized in the glorious photo?

Ayano : We have finally captured the Reichstag!

Ayano: Well done, troops.

Chitose: Yes, everyone did really well. Congratulations!

Himawari: Thank you, senpai.

Himawari: Though I don't think you should be praising Sakurako…

Sakurako: Hey! What's that supposed to mean?

Himawari: It means that we almost lost our lives due to your carelessness.

Sakurako: If you think that using both guns and grenades is careless then I don't think that you're a good soldier, Himawari.

Himawari: You're not supposed to use them at the same time, you idiot! You just threw the hand grenade, started laughing like a maniac and opened fire.

Himawari: You're supposed to throw the grenade and then take cover. I almost got killed trying to save you!

Sakurako: That explosion wouldn't have killed me.

Himawari: *facepalms*

Ayano: Calm down, you two. Don't argue.

Ayano: We have something more important to discuss.

Ayano: A photographer is here to photograph the triumphant red banner of socialism waving over the crumbled fascist lair!

Ayano: The 45th Student Council battalion will be immortalized!

Ayano: So who do you guys think should hold the flag?

Sakurako: Me!

Himawari: No way! Why should you get to hold the flag?

Sakurako: Because I'm the fiercest soldier. And the bravest one.

Himawari: You're not brave. You're just foolhardy.

Himawari: I'd be a better choice to hold the flag. I actually look smart.

Himawari: Unlike a certain someone.

Sakurako: Hey!

Chitose: Don't fight, girls. Please.

Ayano: Yeah. You shouldn't fight over who's going to be in the photo.

Ayano: After all, we're your seniors. Don't you think that it would be wrong for one of you two to be in the photo while your seniors stand by and watch?

Sakurako: Does seniority really matter? I'm the best so I should be in the photograph.

Himawari: Sakurako! That's enough out of you.

Himawari: *salutes Ayano*

Himawari: I apologize for our rudeness, senpai. You're correct. Neither me nor Sakurako should be in the photo.

Sakurako: But-

Himawari: *glares at Sakurako*

Sakurako:

Sakurako: Y-You're right, senpai. We shouldn't be in the photo.

Sakurako: *smiles a forced smile*

Ayano: *sweatdrops*

Ayano: Well, then. Who exactly is going to be in the photograph?

Chitose: Of course it should be you, Ayano-chan!

Ayano: W-What?

Chitose: What's wrong? Don't you want to be in the photo?

Ayano: Of course I do. But aren't you going to make a case for yourself?

Chitose: Why should I?

Ayano: Don't you want to be in the photo?

Chitose: That might be nice. But I would be much happier if you were in the photo.

Ayano: ...Why?

Chitose: *takes off her glasses and clasps her hands together*

Chitose: Because then we can show the photo to Toshinou-san of the 44th Amusement Club batallion!

Ayano: Wh-Wh-What are you t-talking about? Where did Toshinou K-Kyouko come from?

Chitose: It's the only logical course of action. We'll show her the glorious photo and then she'll be impressed by your valor, beauty and grace. And then… Hehe…. Hehehe…

Chitose: *nose spouts blood*

Ayano: Chitose! Put your glasses back on!

Ayano: *looks around frantically*

Ayano: Do we have any tissues? We need tissues!

Sakurako: I might have some in my pocket…

Himawari: That's a grenade!

Sakurako: I still have a grenade left? You think I can use it?

Himawari: Not now!

Chitose: *faints*

Ayano: Ahh! Chitose!

Ayano: We need tissues!

Rise: *shakes her head at the chaos*

Rise: *climbs to the top of the Reichstag building, holds the flag and gets her photograph taken*

Ayano: WHERE CAN I FIND SOME TISSUES?


I'm not sure if I succeeded in doing what John.B-1859 wanted me to do but I hope everyone enjoyed this chapter nonetheless.
