Fourth chapter! Notes:
Nothing for now.
Shout out to Nymus who's been leaving their thoughts on every single chapter! Thank you! Really, your comments motivate me to continue! Also, to the others who left their thoughts on my fic, thank you too! (You know who you are :D)
I'm starting to get accustomed to writing lemons, so I guess expect them from here on? Will happen to my future fics also.
Also, as of this chapter, I'm adding in the explicit parts that were previously unavailable here in here and the previous chapters, and of course, bumping up the rating to "M".
I've been caught up with college recently BTW, so updates won't be that sporadic.
TIMESKIP, 1 HOUR LATER
ROGUE POV
"Uraaaaa!"
"Za Rodinu!"
"Bey Fashistov!"
Cheers of "For The Motherland!" and "Beat the fascists!" have been a common sound lately, especially around this building we're in; with Soviet soldiers pushing for the Reichstag, they needed all the morale they can get to fight harder, even if it's through battle cries.
I have a "battle cry" for Sting sometime...
OI, ROGUE. CUT IT OUT WITH THE DIRTY THOUGHTS.
Yeah, ever since I confessed to Sting, my mind is constantly thinking of things like our house, our future relationship, all the times we could hug each other..
All the kinky stuff in bed with that hot blonde? Mmmm..
ROGUE! I WILL ORDER 227 YOU IF YOU DON'T CUT THAT SHIT OUT!
I can't help but laugh at my own monologues, since they're kinda true. I can definitely imagine the things Sting would do to me in bed.. and the stuff I can do to him..
He can be an innocent, handsome, and cute in normal situations; fierce, courageous, and brave during battle..
And from what I'm imagining, he's hot.. panting.. sweaty.. in bed.. just so damn sexy in general.. nghh, those hard muscles.. abs..
ROGUE FRIGGING CHENEY!
"Oomph!"
My daydreaming was cut off by me bumping into Sting. Guess I really wasn't paying attention to my surroundings now, eh? I really have to stop doing that, it'll kill me some day. Sting shot me a shocked look.
"Rogue, what's the deal? Quit pointing your gun at me." Sting asked, distrust on his eyes. My gun's pointing away from him, so what's the deal?
"My gun's right here." I said to him, raising my faulty PPSh into his view. What's poking him?
"Then what's poking my butt?" he asked, now stupefied. It's not my gun, and I don't have other pointy things with me, apart from a sheathed knife, but that's about it.
What the heck is poking him? Then I noticed I was.. hard.. and it's the thing that's poking Sting in his butt. Then Sting turned to face me, my.. situation coming into his view.
Fuck.
"Oh." Sting said to me as he looked at my.. erection that's showing through my pants, his face all red. I REALLY have to stop thinking dirty thoughts! Damn that ravishing Aryan! Now I've probably creeped him out..
Fuck.
"I-I'm-"
"Rooogue~ What'cha got there, hmm?" Sting said to me, a big grin on his face.
Wait, he's grinning?
"W-what?! I-uh-"
"Mmmm, what got you so.. hard~?" he said as he slowly went closer to me, palming my crotch.
What a pervert. I'd slap him so hard, he'll face-plant on the Reichstag, but it feels so good..
"Nghh, Sting.."
"I'd love to see you two get it on but we have a war to fight." a voice said to us, startling me and Sting; he quickly released his hands from my crotch, and we both went a few feet away from each other.
"You'd love to see us screw?!" Sting blurted out to the source of the voice, who happened to be Leo. Resident pervert indeed.
"Hey, free porn." Leo said, a sly smirk on his face.
"Leo, go back to shooting the fascists." I said to Leo with a very serious expression on my face.
"What was that?" Leo playfully said as if he didn't hear me.
"NOW." I glared at Leo, who cringed at my reaction.
"Okay! Okay." he said as he went away from us, fumbling with his rifle.
As Leo walked away from us, he gave us a side glance that meant "Just do it!", accompanied by another very sly smirk. I shot Leo a glare, making him look away. Sting then drapes an arm over my shoulders.
"Ya wanna.. take care of that~?" he said with a very perverted look while pointing at my hard crotch.
Is this guy for real? In the middle of a war? Really?
"Not now, Sting. We have to-"
"There's a back room over there~." Sting said as he points to a room down the hall of this semi-ruined building. He's smirking again..
Sting should really get his priorities straight. Not gay to straight, I mean! That would suck.. I meant prioritizing more important things like not getting shot at over sexual stuff.
But that would be nice, right? Never experienced anything sexual before, but it beats getting shot at..
"Sting! I'm serious!" I said to him sternly, fifty percent "no get your shit together", fifty percent "yes do me".
"Hey, you're winning, so no rush, right?" he said as he tried tugging me to the room.
"T-that's not-"
Then just when I thought I had control over the situation, the two idiots of Fairy Tail start to support him.
"C'mon, kommissar. We got ya covered." Natsu said to us with a really big smile.
"Natsu, don't support the idea!" I scolded the pinkette, who still continued smiling at us.
"Let us cover for you, kommissar." Gray butts in, supporting both Sting and Natsu.
Idiots will be idiots..
"I swear, the experience will be very fun~." Gray said teasingly, giving Natsu a dirty look, who blushed at it.
"Both of you-" I glared at the two to no effect. Then Sting forcefully tugged me again, this time I followed him reluctantly.
"This way, Roguey~." he said as he led me to the room.
This better be worth it.
As we got in the room, Sting closed the door and locked it, then kissed me as he palmed my crotch. The kiss was so heated, our tongues clashing and so. Then I noticed that he lifted up my shirt, and played with one of my nipples. His mouth then started to go lower from mine, licking my muscular chest then my other nipple. One of his hands then started to feel around my abs, then his licking went from my nipple to my abs, then he went lower and licked my navel, then lower as he stopped right at my crotch.
"I'm doing this for you, Rogue. Relax.."
Sting then went to work on my pants, sending them down to the floor. Sting started to tease me through my underwear, playfully biting my hard member through the fabric, making it twitch from the sensation.
"Ngghh.."
What a tease, but it feels so stimulating.
"I'll make this feel very good."
Sting then sent my underwear down, letting my hard erection spring loose from the fabric. It stood long and hard at a nice five inches, leaking precum. Sting stared long and.. while literally hard.. at it.
"Nice dick, Rogue~."
"Quit complimenting it!"
"Alright, Roguey. I'll get to work then~."
Sting then started licking my member from base to tip, the sensation literally overloading my head. He licked it for about three to four times repeatedly until he saw my kinda tense expression.
"Don't be so tense, Rogue. Relax." Sting said to me as he kissed the head of my member. An awkward gesture, but he looked so cute doing it.
"Stop teasing it already!"
"As you wish, kommissar~."
Sting then took my whole member in his mouth in one go. Rocking his head back and forth, he sucked on it while using his tongue to caress my member while inside his mouth. Damn, his mouth is so hot, I think I'm leaking more precum already.
Sting is really good at this. Shit, Gray is right, this is very fun.
I can feel myself getting close, and out of impulse, I gently grabbed Sting's head and made him move a bit faster.
"Sting.. ahh.. I'm close.. pull.. out!"
Sting kept on going, moving faster and faster, if I'm not mistaken. It's like as if he wants me to cum in his mouth?!
"Sting! I'm going to-"
"-cum!"
I came in his mouth, my semen filling it. Sting was actually enjoying it, evident by his tongue licking all over my dick, especially the head. I pulled out of his mouth shortly, and unbelievably, I came again, this time my white stuff coating his face.
Man, the sight of Sting covered in cum must be very hot.
ROGUE, GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER. NOW.
And as I snapped out from imaginationland, the sudden realization of me cumming on Sting's face hit me like a T-34.
"Sting! I'm very sorr-"
As I apologized, he licked away the cum near his mouth, then he used his hands to get the remaining cum off his face, licking his hands clean afterwards.
Hot! And very perverted of him.
"W-what did you just-"
"Can't let you go to waste, now can I~?" he said as he licked more of my cum from his hand, giving me a very perverted look.
"You're very lewd."
"Why thank you."
We sat against the wall of the room, resting before heading out again. That's when I've noticed that Sting was still hard. I thought he jerked off simultaneously?
Sting... I want you..
WTF, ROGUE.
"How about you?" I blurted out as I stared at his hard, clothed member.
Damn, he must be big..
"Oh, I can just jerk off, no big deal." he replied, putting a hand on top of his erection.
Yes! Now's your chance, Rogue! Do him like he did you!
OKAY, I'M OUTTA HERE.
"Umm, h-how about I-" I stuttered, my face all red and unsure of what I'm doing.
"Hmm? What?"
"W-well, I could-"
"You wanna suck me too?" he said to me with a big grin on his face. I guess he must've noticed me staring at his erection.
"I.. yeah..."
"Are you sure? If you really don't want to, you don't have to."
"N-no! It's fine. It's just.."
"I'm not sure on what to do, BUT I'LL DO MY BEST." I blurted out to him as I lightly grabbed his erection, my eyes still locked onto his.. and my face redder than ever.
"Okay, Roguey~. If that's what you want." he teased with an even bigger grin.
I worked on Sting's pants, slowly unbuttoning it until I saw his dark beige-colored underwear. I tugged on it until Sting's full length burst from its confines..
Shit! Is that seven inches?! Shit!
I stared at it for quite a long time, not sure if I could take that, then a cough from Sting interrupts my thoughts.
"Are you still sure? You can just jerk me off instead if that's-"
"No! You did it to me, and it's only fair that I do it to you too!"
"You don't have to-"
I slowly took in his erection in my mouth, about half of it, unsure if I could take the entire thing without gagging. I slowly moved my head back and forth while licking his length in my mouth.
"Rogue! Y-you-"
Apparently, I can't even handle half of his erection, and I started gagging. I released his member from my mouth, with me still in a coughing fit.
Great, thanks a lot.
YOU ASKED FOR IT.
"Rogue! You didn't have to, ya know?! Now you're coughing! I think I almost choked you."
"I just wanted you to feel good too, alright? Like what you did to me."
"Look, now that you know you can't handle it, don't force yourself, alright?"
"Fine, at least let me do this."
I lightly grabbed his still hard erection with one hand, and with the other I felt up his sweaty, muscular body. As I slowly pumped him, my other hand traveled all over his torso, feeling up his hard pectorals, then playing with one of his nipples. My mouth made its way to his other nipple, where I started to lick and suck on it.
"Nghh... R-Rogue..."
My other hand then started to feel up his firm abs, with my mouth following suit, licking all over his six-pack and navel.
"Ahhh.. R-Rogue!"
Without warning, Sting came, his semen ending up on my face and some of it on his abs.
Is this some kind of payback for earlier?
Then my body just moved on its own, going to Sting's erection, sucking the head dry and licking its entire length of any loose cum.
"You're kinda lewd yourself~."
"Shut up." I said as I finished "cleaning".
"Lemme clean you up, Roguey~."
Sting went up to me, licking the part of my face with his cum on it. At first, I was shocked, then a weird thought went up in my mind.
He's practically tasting himself.
I THINK YOU NEED A THERAPIST.
After Sting has finished licking my face, he kissed me again heatedly, tongues dancing for heated dominance. After a while, we just laid down on the floor of the room.
"That was fun, don't ya think?" Sting said with a bright smile on his face.
"I guess so. I've never experienced anything like it."
"Hey, we can do it again as soon as you guys win this war."
"But Sting, I want our relationship to be more than that.. more than just sexual stuff.." I said to him, my voice laden with a bit of worry. Then Sting pinched my cheek.
"Of course, Roguey~. Why do ya think I came with ya in the first place?" he playfully said, stopping his pinching.
"It's because I wanna be with you. I've never met someone who gave a shit about me before.." he said as he cupped my cheeks, making my face redden.
"You sound so sappy, you know that?" I teased Sting, making him uncup my cheeks in playful irritation.
"Yeah, yeah."
"..."
"Let's head back now, this war won't win itself."
STING POV
As soon as our "business" was done, we cleaned ourselves a bit more, grabbed our weapons and went back to the frontlines with the rest of Fairy Tail. The other guys had enthusiastic looks on their faces.
"Uraaaa!"
"Yeah! Screw you, you fascist pig-dogs!"
"Burn that Reichstag down!"
I looked at the other guys with a confused look on my face.
"Why's everyone so upbeat?" I asked them. Natsu responded with a fist-pump.
"You haven't heard? Soviet forces have made their way through the Reichstag's defences!" he said in a cheery tone.
Hey, some good news.
"Really, just now?" I asked in slight disbelief.
"Yes, now it's just a matter of getting in. The Wehrmact barricaded the doors and windows." Gray responded.
"Huh, let's see if that holds." Laxus added, pointing to a column of T-34s and an IS-2 on the road.
I nodded in approval of Laxus statement, then me and Sting made our way to a small room where there was running water. Surprisingly, it was clean, so we both drank and washed ourselves with it.
"Sooo, how was your private time together~?" a voice hollered from behind us, making me jump in surprised. Rogue didn't budge and looked kinda annoyed.
"It's called 'private' for a reason, Leo." he said to the orange-haired guy, who looked at us teasingly.
"You're no fun." Leo said, who pouted. Rogue just sighed at the "resident pervert".
"Why are you so desperate on knowing?" I asked Leo, who quirked an eyebrow at the question.
"Hey, I find it.. fun.. knowing what other people do in bed." he replied with a slight smirk.
"Even if it's gay?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Straight, gay, doesn't matter to me. What matters if it's hot.." Leo said as he approached me.
"And you two are, and so are they~." he added with a devilish smirk, pointing at us then at Natsu and Gray.
"Gee, thanks." Rogue replied, the sarcasm so strong with him.
"You should get laid." I said to Leo playfully. He took off his glasses and started to "fix" it.
"I've been trying, no luck so far." he replied while fidgeting with his glasses.
Then the tall, scarred, blonde guy came up to us with a blank expression on his face. I think his name is Laxus?
"I don't mean to intrude but we should get going now." he said to us, pointing through a window where we can see a group of Germans gathering for an attack, a Sabertooth Panzer V Panther among them.
"Yes, Laxus is right. We're in the middle of it." the green-haired guy said as he pointed at a group of Soviets on the opposite side with a T-34.
"We wouldn't wanna miss out on all the action, now do we?" Natsu said jovially as he grabbed his flamethrower, cranking it on.
"Your enthusiasm will get you killed." Rogue said to Natsu scoldingly.
"We'll see, kommissar." Natsu replied cockily.
"It would be wise of you to focus on surviving, not the prospect of killing. If memory serves me right, most of our former comrades died because they were too happy to slaughter the 'red dogs'". Rufus said. What he did say is true, a lot of grenadiers got killed back then because they were too happy to kill the "Red dogs". Now they're dead. The grenadiers, I mean. Molotovs and stuff..
"I sense that something bad is gonna happen." the guy with hair like Rogue's said from behind us, a gloomy expression on his face.
"Why do you say that?" Rogue asks curiously. Is that guy some fortune teller or something?
"The atmosphere, it's too positive right now. From what I know, if the current situation is too positive, something very bad will happen soon."
"C'mon, Alzack. You really believe that?" Rogue asked the guy, who's name is Alzack.
"After what happened to her back in Stalingrad, yes." Alzack replied to Rogue, half glaring at him.
"Right, sorry I brought that up." Rogue apologized to Alzack, who lightened up a bit. What happened back there?
"Let's just get going. And let's be careful while we're at it." I said to the guys, who nodded in agreement.
We trekked down a bunch of alleyways, passing through destroyed buildings in the process. Bloodied corpses of both Soviet conscripts and Wehrmact grenadiers littered every pathway we walked on; there were even some grenadiers that were hanged from the trees we came across, with signs around their necks that said "Traitor to the fatherland" or "Cowardice will result in summary execution". Guess their morale is getting low. That's good, right?
"I guess that's their version of Order 227." Rogue chuckled, looking at a hanged German corpse.
"What's that anyway?" I asked Rogue. I keep on hearing the number 227 for some reason.
"To sum it up for you, those signs." Rogue replied as he pointed towards the signs hanging from the corpses. So, kill anyone that threatens morale? That's harsh.
"Though the kommissars just shoot on sight instead of doing elaborate displays like that." Rogue added, tapping his holstered pistol.
"You wouldn't do that to me, would you?" I ask out of curiousity.
"Of course not, Sting." Rogue said to me as he cupped my cheeks, making my face burn up.
"Why would I? You're everything to me now." Rogue added as we were nose-to-nose.
"I'm flattered." I said as Rogue pulled away. Now he looks worried.
"Where are all these thoughts coming from, Sting? Just know that I'll never hurt you, alright?" Rogue said as he laid a hand on my shoulder.
"I guess I'm just getting paranoid, heheh." I said, letting out some fake laughs.
"Seriously now. Let's get going. Just a few blocks until the Reichstag." Rogue said as he motioned for me to follow him, and as he tried to fix his jammed gun.
So, we walked along this pathway until at one point it got blocked off by rubble and a Panzer IV wreck. Then Rogue told us to look for a passageway, anything that could get us to the other side. I looked around the site, finding lots of torn up propaganda posters and this iron hatch in the middle of a garden. Doesn't looked rigged or anything..
"We could take that." I said to the guys as I pointed to the hatch.
"That doesn't sound good." Alzack said as he looked at the hatch.
"We have no other choice, the other ways lead to MG-42 emplacements." Laxus said as he pointed to the paths that lead to the buzzsaws.
"We'll have to take this hatch." Rogue said as he lifted up the hatch. One by one, everyone got in but Alzack, who wasn't really sure on going inside.
"Alzack, since you can't use your rifle in there, take this." Rogue said as he handed his submachine gun to Alzack.
"What about you, kommissar?" Alzack said as he looked at the gun.
"I have my pistol, and Sting's got my back, don't worry." Rogue said as he shot me a look and a smile.
"I still don't feel good about this, kommissar. But it's your call." Alzack said as he cringed at the hatch.
"Heh, just hope it doesn't jam on you." Rogue said as he let Alzack through the hatch.
"How assuring, kommissar." Alzack said as he got in, climbing down the ladder. Me and Rogue followed after we shared a quick kiss.
The lighting in the underground tunnel is very dim. Wish I had a flashlight or something. It's kinda narrow, with some faint light bulbs and pipes to the sides, but it's kinda clean, except for some dust and rats.
We got to this section where it's really dark with no light; we went into that section anyway, since it's the only path. Sometime later, I bumped into someone in front of me.
"Ahh!"
"Akk!"
"Rogue? Is that you?" I asked in the dark, trying to feel for something in front of me.
"I'm behind you, what's up?" Rogue said from behind me, making me think of the worst possible scenario.
"Really? Then who-"
Someone with a lantern came up from a corner up front, and it turns out that I've bumped into a grenadier..
"KOMMUNISTEN!" / "COMMUNISTS!"
"FASHISTI!"
I brought up an arm to immediately punch the grenadier in front of me, bringing my fist to his face; he got knocked down. At the same time, I heard screams of agony and sounds of gunshots as the lantern went out, possibly dropped by the grenadier. Definitely worst case scenario.
"Feuer, schutzen!" / "Fire, soldiers!"
"Strelay!"
I got down on my stomach to hopefully pass as a dead body since I'm in front, and not wanting to get shot by those grenadiers or even my comrades.
I heard one thud after another, possibly someone getting shot and dying, a splatter of blood getting on my back, eww.
After the shootings stopped, after a minute or so, I got up and went to the possible last area of the lantern, aimlessly extending my arms at it's possible location until I felt warm glass.
"Ha! Here it is."
I picked it up, looked for the switch, flicked it open, and I saw..
I saw that two Germans were killed, the rest probably retreated. On our side, everyone was fine⦠except for Freed, who's face down on the floor, a pool of blood forming on his lower torso area. Laxus knelt down at him, checking for a pulse.
"Oh shit, Freed!" Natsu exclaimed as he saw Freed's bloodied body.
"I knew it! Something bad was gonna happen!" Alzack blurted out.
"Stop it, Alzack! We need to patch him up now!" Rogue scolded Alzack to hush, which he did.
Alzack retreated to a corner, squatting with his hands on his face. Then Laxus got up from his kneeling position, his face looking neutral but his eyes full of anger.
"Forget it." Laxus said as he tried to keep a straight face.
"What? Why?" Natsu asked Laxus, his face slowly going from angry to sad.
"I said forget it.."
"He's dead." Laxus said with a strained voice.
"Fucking shit!" Leo exclaimed, kicking a German helmet in front of him.
"I should have been up front, that way I would've burned those fascist bastards!" Natsu yelled as he cranked up his flamethrower.
"The fact that you're a pyro, they'll target you first, or your gas tank, killing us all!" Gray told Natsu, after which they exchanged glares.
After a short window to scavenge supplies from the corpses, Rogue just realized that they only killed two out of maybe five grenadiers.
"We have to go, they're probably getting reinforcements." Rogue said as he reloaded his pistol.
"Rest in peace, comrade." Laxus said as he placed Freed's arms in an X position.
"We'll kill them all, no mercy." he added, his voice seething with rage.
"Laxus, remember Gajeel? Rage won't do anyone any good." Rogue said to Laxus, throwing him a scolding look.
"Now, I just want to see how many of those bastards can die from a single magazine of a DP-28." Laxus said as he cocked his machinegun and started to march in front of everyone, with the rest of us following behind him.
"Sorry, Freed." Leo said as he took Freed's "secret" journal, then he went behind the formation.
At some point in the tunnel, we came across two possible options to take; one, a hole on the tunnel that leads outside, looks faster but unpredictable; or two, continue on the tunnel, also unpredictable, and might lead to more Germans.
Then we heard faint sounds of boots stepping in the tunnel a minute later, which means they did call for reinforcements.
"That doesn't sound good." Leo said as he heard the faint footsteps of the Germans.
"I'll hold them off, take the hole." Laxus said as he prepared his machinegun.
"Laxus, think straight! You can get killed!" Rogue said to Laxus, trying to tug him along.
"That hole looks like it could take forever for you to crawl through. Get in it now, I'll hold them off."
"Machinegun fire should make them scatter, and retreat, if ever." Laxus added with an evil smirk.
"Come on, we gotta go. If that's what he wants then fine. You can't stop him anyway." Alzack said as he tugged at Rogue.
"Be at the Reichstag courtyard later, got it?"
"No promises, kommissar. If I survive, I'll be there."
"Good luck, Laxus."
"They'll pay. For our fallen comrades."
Rogue got in the hole first, followed by Natsu then Gray. As soon as Alzack was entering, we heard the Germans shout orders already.
"Est ist ihnen! Feuer!" / "It's them! Fire!"
"Not on my watch!"
Laxus layed down a blanket of bullets on the Germans, killing one and making the rest scatter in panic. His blanket stopped after some ten seconds.
"Blondie, covering fire while I reload?" he said as he shot me a look.
"Coming right up!" I said as I swung my Sturmgewehr from my shoulder.
I went up to a corner, aimed my Sturmgewehr, and fired in bursts at the grenadiers. I managed to hit one in his leg, but by the time Laxus finished reloading, it was my turn to get in the hole.
"Thanks for the assist, but now you gotta get out of here." Laxus said as he started to spray at the grenadiers.
"Take care." I said to him as I started to get in the hole.
I went into the hole, arms first to give me some crawling capability. As soon as I was fully inside the hole, I looked to see that I have a lot of crawling to do. And Laxus is still shooting, so that's a good sign.
After about roughly five to ten minutes of crawling, I got out of the hole. Turns out that we're right in front of the Reichstag courtyard, the very seat of power of Germany, and now, it's under siege by the Soviets.
"The front doors aren't a viable way. Other kommissars would get suspicious of us as to why we're still alive." Rogue said to the guys, pointing at the courtyard that's swarming with Soviet Conscripts.
"How's that suspicious?" Leo asked while drinking from a canteen, some of the liquid dripping down from his mouth.
Eh?
"All, if not most, shtrafbats should be gone by now, their 'reserves' depleted, you get me?" Rogue replied to Leo, tapping his pistol for emphasis.
"As in dead?" I asked Rogue, who turned to me.
"Yes. Thrown into enemy fire and the like." Rogue replied, doing some kind of mock gesture of someone throwing something. I let out a small laugh at that gesture.
"Well, now what?" Gray asked while patting a fuming Natsu simultaneously. Rogue took out his binoculars and started to survey the surroundings of the Reichstag.
"The west side of the building looks clear, Katyushas must've cleared that area already." he said as he put his binoculars away, wiping its lenses.
"Alright, Rogue."
"But remain vigilant. There could be stragglers." Rogue said, a dead serious look on his face. I guess he can't afford any more casualties. Well, no one wants anyone else to die, except if it's the enemy, that is.
"Kommissar, your gun. I can use my rifle now." Alzack said as he approached Rogue, extending the drum magazine submachine gun to him.
"Right, thank you Alzack." Rogue said as he took the gun, trying to unjam the thing again.
That gun must suck a lot.. No! Not like that! Jeez. Well it is Rogue's..
Rufus and Orga came to my view, they were sitting down on the pavement while discussing some sort of "contingency plan".
"You guys good?" I asked my guys. They grabbed their rifles as they got up from their sitting positions.
"Yes sir, Hauptmann." Orga replied, clenching his fist for emphasis.
"I think I'm good to go." Rufus replied as he fixed his glasses and uniform.
We proceeded to trek towards the Reichstag's west side which was seemingly devoid of any life, Nazi or Soviet. It is full of bloodied, battered, and heavily disfigured corpses, though; there was even one body I came across that reeked already, and it's torso was blown in half, along with its limbs and head, a copious amount of blood and innards sprayed all over the place. There's also some Panzer IV and Panther V wrecks that smelled of burnt skin, probably the crews. As we walked, I saw Gray and Natsu progressively gravitating towards each other slowly while talking about something. I sneaked up behind them out of curiousity.
"Gray? I have to admit, I'm scared."
"I'm scared too, but you gotta get those thoughts out of your head, Natsu."
"B-but, it could be you! Or me.."
"Don't think like that! We'll make it outta here, alright?! Think positive, Natsu!"
"You're always so cheery and optimistic, use it here!"
"No one else in Fairy Tail is gonna die! Got it, Natsu?! Not you! Not me! Not Kommissar Rogue or anyone here! Only the fascists will die! Got that?!"
"Yeah."
"Good."
"Gray.. thanks."
"Please stop thinking like that, Natsu. I like you because you always find optimism during bad times like these."
"Don't give me a reason to ditch you, fire-breath."
"I won't, ice dick."
Their talk, it sort of reminded me how bad our situation is right now. I just wish it won't get any worse..
We continued to trek down a ruined alleyway, our guns, eyes, and ears at the ready. With all those recent deaths, I can't help but think so pessimistically right now. As we trekked, Rogue shot me a reassuring smile, telling me everything will be alright. I shot back with a forced smile, knowing otherwise. He looked kinda saddened with my response. He went up to me shortly, letting the rest of the group go ahead, leaving us at the rear of the group.
"Sting, I know everything looks bad right now, but it won't get any worse." he said to me. Out of impulse, I hugged him very tightly.
"Promise me! I don't wanna lose you already!" I said to him with a voice so shaky, and with tears in my eyes. I cried and cried as Rogue played with my hair and patted my back.
"I'll keep you safe, I promise. Just keep me safe too, okay?" Rogue assured me as he wrapped his arms around me, returning the hug.
I won't die on you, Rogue. I promise. We'll keep each other safe.
