It was time when the sun is starting to set, silvery wind lifting everything that was very light, streets of Kunamoto city were completely empty and deserted, it was a time when people tired of work and life rested. But not everyone.
Eleven years old girl with light brown hair with twin-tailed style and blue eyes dressed in white school uniform, black skirt and black shoes just stood in front of a sizable white mansion. She was undoubtedly waiting for someone, a singele minut of waiting seemed to be ages.
Girl seemed to be losing hope on arrival of the expected person but despite this, she remained adamant and stubbornly waited. She was not a type of human who gives up easily and quickly. Every now and then a silvery wind touched her young and smooth face and tried to kidnap her clothes.
Finally after a many minutes through the open gate on the area of the mansion house entered dressed in a white school uniform with black pants and black shoes fat boy , however all his clothes were jagged and ruffled.
Despite this he walked proudly, his legs though greasy were moving neatly, his dark blonde hair though messy were seemed to glow and as his blue eyes.
Girl was glad to see him and the tears started to build up under the eyes but don't run down over her beautiful cheeks.
Boy after a while of march found himself in front of the girl. They looked at each other for a few seconds without a single word. They were almost the same height but in fact boy seemed to be a bit taller.
"Otouto, I was worried about you."Girl said with sincere concern in her eyes and voice.
The boy was not thrilled with this answer even though she expressed in her statement solicitude.
"I don't need your concern."He said with anger in his voice but despite this he said it camly, expression on his face seemed to confirm it.
Girl smiled in the response. She knew perfectly well that he will said this.
"You should accept the care and help of other people, you can't do anything alone Otouto."Girls said.
That answer made him even more furious. His blue eyes seemed to glow and emanate of determination and wrath.
"I don't need your care and help, I don't need care and help of other people."He said and he clenched fingers and his hands began to tremble."I don't need friends and our father, I will become..."
And he for a while pondered what to say next.
"I will become someone important, someone with great power and someone respected by all. You will see, shimai."
Next day, Kuromorimine Girls Academy 6:44
Erika just woke up, her heart was beating fast but after a while everything is back to normal.
{This man, that's all what he has experienced... How is he still sane?}Erika said it in mind.{So much suffering, so much emptiness and he still is powerful and completely sane.}
Erika's mind was full of sincere admiration for her boyfriend, Oberstgruppenführer Lothar Rou. She's mind was still in that conversation which took place in previous day. Previous day might just be good. But because of this what happened previous day now was for Lothar and Erika unforgettable. This one day changed her and changed him but how much? Time will show us this.
"Lothar, yesterday you almost started crying but in the end you didn't do that."
Next Erika got up from the bed and began to prepare for today, she know perfectly that Maho will want to talk to her because of Erika's absence yesterday.
Although Erika was busy preparing it still she thought about Lothar, yesterday he told her how difficult his life was, he told her about his mother's death during childbirth, childbirth during which he and Leila were born, he told her about his great difficulties, he told her about his father's obsession with so-called pure blood and his father's plans. Erika had the impression that she was about to cry, yesterday she started crying but Lothar then hugged her and using the sleeves of his suit wiped away Erika's tears which literally shone on her face at that moment.
After twenty minutes everything was ready. Breakfast, black bag with notebooks and books and of course Erika herself was ready too, she dressed regular Kuromorimine uniform, featureless grey jacket with a black collar and black skirt.
She still thought about Lothar, he impressed her, even more, she fell in love in him.
{I thought that you are powerlust monster, full of senseless cruelty and total madness.}Erika said it in mind and tears started running down her incredibly beautiful and smooth cheeks.{I made a huge mistake. I will never commit it again, I swear it, you have my word Lothar, I will change and I will become the same as you. Our common road will be long and difficult but ultimately we will achieve this what we want.}
Strong and angry blue-eyed valkyrie and goddess of war in one. Once eternally hungry of victory dressed on the battlefield in black and red uniform.
Crafty and extremely intelligent snake in human skin and god of death and intrigue in one, once eternally hating everything that is alive dressed on the battlefield in gray uniform.
And now this two people have become something different than this what they be once. These two had changed, in some respects slightly but in others completely.
"Yesterday you gave me some valuable advice, I won't waste it and glory will be belong to me and those who shall be follow me. Our way will not be easy but we, me and my kameraden shall be go through the mud and rain to the green meadows."
And next she sat down on a chair at the table and start eat breakfast.
Carrier New Berlin 7:15
At the moment inside of Carrier New Berlin in room converted into an office on armchair behind a simple oak desk sit Führer of the LSSAH Military High School, Walter Rou.
His facial expressions and eyes indicated that he is very nervous and it was true, Walter since yesterday waiting for the report about explosion which took place on board of Carrier New Berlin.
The nervousness began to build up after a while, he began to look around the room rapidly and he saw on the left side of the desk bunk on which he slept that night.
{It was very uncomfortable night and by the way sleepless.}Walter said it in mind, for some reason the thought calmed him and he adter a while was completely calm.
Suddenly door leading to office opened and to the inside entered short, medium-height boy in gray uniform with pale hair and green eyes.
Flaps on the collar made it clear that this man have Standartenführer rank.
"Standartenführer Otto Günshe."Said Walter to him."Is anything known about yesterday's explosion?"
Otto stood at attention and next he bowed, only after this he started speak.
"Mein Führer, the cause of the explosion was bomb in the car belonging to Reichsführer Heinrich Relmmih."
Walter paled upon hearing this.
{July heroes made their moves, earlier they to the outbreak of the uprising against me and now they murdered Reichsführer.}Walter said in mind and frowned, it looked like he was thinking and planned some moves but his eyes denied it.{Traitors are everywhere, now I am shure that the leader of the july heroes is Reichsmarschall Eduard von Künzell. He want to take away my power, he is responsible for all these events, undeniably.}
Walter next began to think about his moves and after a while he said to Otto.
"I want call situational meeting, in thirty minutes here. I want to see you, Reichsmarschall Eduard von Künzell, Oberstgruppenführer Reinhard von Künzell, Oberstgruppenführer der Flieger Mamoru Keserling, Brigadeführer Hideki Tajō, Brigadeführer Hermann Egelein and Oberstgruppenführer Lothar Rou if of course they are on deck of Carrier New Berlin. Additionally, find Rottenführer Keiji Morl, he is to come to me immediately, I need something for strengthening my mind and my body."
"I want also see here also Untersturmführer Shō ichiro, he has to introduce me to all important reports."
Walter just yesterday ordered Untersturmführer Shō ichiro to swap one of the rooms below deck in radio central and after this supervising this.
"But before you call them all you inform Unterscharführer Tomio Morl that I woke up and I waiting for his injections."
On Otto's face awhile was obvious anxiety, after a long while he took a step towards the desk and said.
"I was looking for Brigadeführer Hermann Egelein but unfortunately I did not find him, people who are subordinate to me are already looking for him."
Walter after hearing these words almost went berserk.
"So look for him, if he escaped from Carrier New Berlin or he preparing to flee, this is desertion, verrat(betrayal)."
There was silence for a moment, Walter and Otto looked into each other's eyes until moment when Walter got up and started screaming:
"Bring me over here Egelein!Egelein!Egelein!Egelein!"
At the same time in other part inside of Carrier New Berlin Oberstgruppenführer Lothar Rou just woke up.
{Such quarter is not much comfortable but for me it's not too bad if I take under attention fact that I had to sleep many times on more worse things and in more worst places.}
He in the next second remembered about Erika and about everything what he said to her, Lothar still can't believe that it really happened. Yesterday they both confessed to themselves love through a kiss.
{That feeling...}Said Lothar in his mind and his eyes literally seemed to glow, his long lost feelings just woke up.{...Is really wonderful, I regret that I didn't want to experience it early but on the other hand if I'd do it that I wouldn't have now such a pleasure.}
After a while of delight at this wonderful moment which took place yesterday yesterday he returned to his focused state and light in his eyes lost its recently strength.
{I hope that she will will take my advice into account.}
Next Lothar got up from bunk, he took off his pajamas and next he went to the improvised bathroom which was located behind one the door.
{Yesterday's conversation with my father I can consider as consent to take over power in the LSSAH Military High School.}
Yesterday, residence of Rou family, 17:30.
Lothar just stood in front of birch door full of intricate gold decorations leading to his father office, he was prepared on insults and humiliation which his father provide him always when they talk together.
{His days are numbered too.}Thought slightly smiling Lothar.
Meanwhile, inside of dark room, next to massive oak desk was standing man. It was slim and tall man after sixties with oblong and full of wrinkles face, short gray hair combed back and blue eyes.
{My first born son turned out to be stupid fool, my daughter is weak because of her kindness and childishness.}Thought old man, then he sat on black leather armchair in front of the desk and drank whiskey with a glass which was on his desk.
After emptying the glass he threw it with all strength on the ground and the glass fell apart on thousands pieces of glass.
{I am disappointed.}
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"You can come in."Old man said with calm voice, he expected to see his son.
Next to the inside of room entered Lothar dressed the same as a few hours ago when he hosted Erika.
"Father"Lothar said after standing five steps in front of the desk and next he bowed.
Old man, actually Horst Rou. He smiled and after a while he said:
"Good to see you Lothar, my soon."
{Always you were fat and gross, I never expect from you and once I would never even think that you can become heir of our family. Once upon a time we, übermensch from von Rou family were proud nobles and warriors. Now we are cunning and rich heirs of national socialism. I wanted that we would become again proud nobles and warriors, that is why I thanks to my influence in Japan government, thanks to my spy network in asia and thanks to help of Organisation der ehemaligen SS-Angehörigen I was able to lead to the outbreak of war between Japan and Philippines. Thanks to this that I was sent you there you finally have become a man who is perfect for living in this rotting world...}Horst said in mind.{However for nobles and warriors there is no place in this world abd you fortunately did not become this which you in my opinion should become.}
Lothar wanted to burst out laughing but he managed to hold back.
{Now you call me your son, do not think that I forget how you called me until recently.}Lothar thought.
Next Lothar and Horst looked straight into each other's eyes. Lothar looking at Horst's eyes noticed remnant of his old strength, fatigue with life, huge experience but also he saw void in the eyes resulting from fatigue with life.
{Old man who soon will die and who what he was supposed to do he did.}
Horst in his son's eyes noticed huge experience worthy of old man, extreme intelligence, cunning worthy of a fox, deceitfulness worthy of snake, strength worthy of a lion and flame.
{My son, you have a great future ahead of you, once I thought that you will be only pathetic trash who might as well die, I thought that you will be an ulcer on our family's ass.}Horst thought and he began in mind despair of his own stupidity.
{I have never made a more major mistake in my life than this thoughts about you, I underestimated you but with other side, but your strict upbringing almost surely made that you become what you are now.}
"Are we just gonna look each other in the eye?"Asked Lothar.
After his words Horst realized that they looked at each other in silence for a few minutes, father and son who really hate each other with all their heart.
"Of course not, now please sit down."And Horst pointed his index finger at leather armchair in front of desk. Lothar immediately after hearing his words sat down on the armchair his father had indicated.
"Why you want to see with me father? Why you want to see your worst and most worthless descendant? Or perhaps I am no longer useless trash and you have some important role for me."Lothar said with voice full of obvious reluctance.
Horst smiled broadly and in his eyes appeared positive answer. Lothar saw it immediately and with no any problem.
{So now my alternative solution is really unstoppable. Really great, my brother will be destroyed, Reichsmarschall Eduard von Künzell and his subordinates will be destroyed, Maho Nishizumi and old Kuromorimine and my father will be destroyed. Erika will defeat Nishizumi style and I will defeat those who glorify above all SS, NSDAP and science of race superiority. It will be great, rebirth of LSSAH Military High School in a new form and rebirth of Kuromorimine Girls Academy.}
"Probably you wonder what role you will get."Horst said and in answer Lothar shook his head affirmatively.
"You will you be my new Führer of LSSAH Military High School, you must take this position because your drug addict brother will ruined plans of ODESSA."
{So you want to ordered me kill my brother only because he is threatening your plans by his stupidity and already actually detachment from reality. That's why you were a role model for me after all, you never allow yourself to be sentimental and you always do what is most profitable, regardless of feelings or other people.}Lothar thought and on his fat face appeared sadistic and broad smile.
{This smile, as I can see he really want to do this order, just as I expected.}Horst said it in mind.
"I see that you liked it, its very good. You have too eliminate Walter, no matter how."
"For sure I don't have any restrictions?"Asked Lothar, he wanted to be sure does he have to refrain from certain actions.
"Yes, no restrictions. You can do everything you want but you have to stop him for good."
"As you wish, father."
Horst smiled and said:
"Great, now let's move on to the second point. You you asked me in message for a few german tanks from the period of second world war and additionally that tanks must be adapted to Sensha-dō. Isn't it?"
"Yes, that's probably not a big deal for you. I'm wrong?"
"No, you are not wrong, I know also why you need this all. You have to form male Sensha-dō team and this ordered you Renta Tsuji."
Lothar smiled, blinked his eyes and after a while he said only:
"Yes"
Horst also smiled.
"You probably know why he want this."
"It's his second backup plan."
Horst frowned, he couldn't find logical reason why Renta Tsuji decide to somethig like this.
"Why would he need it?"Asked Horst after moment of silent.
"He want to close Ooarai Girls Academy. This Sunday he will start liquidation and in a few days after this Ooarai Sensha-dō team will be fight against All-Stars University Team. In case defeat of the university team event connected with admission men to Sensha-dō will let MEXT and Sensha-dō Federation save face. Also in that case LSSAH Military High School Sensha-dō team will be have to defeat Ooarai."
Carrier New Berlin, now.
{Fortunately, he agreed to produce these machines, will be delivered in this saturday so few days before Ooarai fight against All-Stars University. Now I just have to do two things. First, clean this dung in LSSAH Military High School. Second, I have to find team but it shouldn't be hard. Second thing will be hindered by this civil war but I and those who will follow me win ultimately.}
{Not to even mention that my only rivals on road to power got drunk with their present power. They only can prepare pathetic intrigue.}
Every thought about it made him euphoric. He now feels like never that this is the beginning of his time. However after a while all fire inside of him just evaporated, there was no trace of it.
Instead of this now his brain started analyze the situation, he today must notify the most important people about necessity to implementation of alternative solution.
This solution was less careful than his original plan, it was definitely more reckless and risky but he must take that risk if he want to take over power in LSSAH Military High School.
For now there was no need to worry about it so he diced to focus on other things.
Within fifteen minutes Lothar took a bath and put on his gray uniform.
"And now..."
His monologue was interrupted by sound of opening door. Lothar immediately turned towards that door and saw Standartenführer Otto Günshe with serious expression of face but at the same time Lothar saw in his eyes unimaginable amount of sadness.
"Herr Oberstgruppenführer, Führer called situational meeting in about thirty minutes."Otto said.
"Great."Lothar replied, after this words he unbuttoned the collar of jacket which he was wearing, next he put a tie.
"I have impression that Führer will chose new Reichsführer today."Said Otto.
On Lothar's face immediately after his words appeared cold and unfazed smile.
"Undoubtedly."
Lothar had known that from yesterday, after all he got from Christa Günshe the message at 4 p.m. yesterday which content was Reichsführer is delta out.
{Just a few more days and I will be the new leader of LSSAH Military High School, I have to be patient.}
"By the way, are you alright Otto?"Asked Lothar.
{This psychopath asking me is everything alright with me?"Otto thought.
Expression on Otto face suddenly changed, now was more sad and full of pain.
"I just found out that my mother and father..."Otto said and said rest of this what he want to said was for him really hard."They are dead, they died yesterday in a car accident."
When he said it he just had to look down at the floor. Meanwhile Lothar walked to him and raised his head and after a while they both looked straight into each other's eyes.
"Do you and your siblings have any relatives?"Asked Lothar with care in eyes and voice.
{He...He is more human than most of the people I met. Beyond any doubt he is not a psychopath.}Otto thought.
"No, we don't have. To be completely honest, I'm afraid for our future."
Lothar sighed deeply and said after a long moment of silent:
"So henceforth you and your siblings are under my protection."
{Excuse me?}Otto said in his mind which after receiving this information has become unstable.{He... This powerlust monster...This ruthless beast and crafty snake in human skin offers me and mine siblings protection.}
He looked at Lothar in infinite disbelief. Lothar understand him perfectly well.
{He can't believe in this what I said. It's hard to believe it because so far I only show him lie which was to convince him that I am powerlust monster without feelings. It's realy funny if take into account fact that I always show his sister also lie. However, in this lie I was an idealist hungry for justice. I am really deceitful and my life is full of lies...}
Suddenly Lothar remembered something.
{Hans soon should start operation Berliner Garde.}
Kuromorimine Girls Academy 7:40.
Erika was just in the middle of her daily journey to school. This morning was wonderful, sun adorn everything around her but at the same time temperature even in the sun does not exceed twenty-three degrees. Erika was walking briskly but as always with grace.
"Erika-san."Said someone behind her with voice without even hint of hot feelings but at the same time this voice seemed strangely familiar for Erika.
Surprised Erika immediately after hearing this words turned back and she saw Koume Akaboshi. She seemed to be as it always was but this time she was different than usual. Now her usually full of care and heat eyes was full of listlessness and in some sense deep sadness. Erika began to wonder why Koume looks like this but no logical explanation crossed to her mind.
{All what's left is wait until she starts talking.}Erika thought with big anxiety in mind.
"Can we talk Erika-san?"Akaboshi asked her.
Erika in answer nodded and pointed to the bench which was on her right side. They both sat down and started talking.
"Did something happen Akaboshi-san?"Asked Erika wanting to find out why she is in this condition.
Koume sighed deeply.
{I have to ask her about it, I have to help her if my guesses are real.}Koume thought.
"Is your boyfriend is Lothar Rou?"She asked Erika.
{How does she know that?}Erika asked herself mentally and frowned to don't show even the smallest weakness.
"Who told you that?"Erika asked her determine but also calmly.
"It doesn't matter at the moment."She replied."Now it matters that you are in a relationship with monster who is monster completely devoid of feelings."
Erika was surprised by this answer but at the same time he began to feel a presence of someone else. Erika felt that now she and Lothar are really unity, she realized that no matter what happens they are connected forever.
{Lothar... I know that you are not monster. You are someone completely other than those lie which you show me until yesterday.}
"Monster you say... Completely devoid of feelings you say."Erika said it and smiled warm."You're wrong, until yesterday I was thinking the same as you but I was very wrong, same as you."
"I am wrong?!"Screamed Koume and cracks appeared on her face."Impossible, you feeling to this blod and power lust monster will lead you to death, I know this because I also loved him once! Then I saw that he is human who only fights for power, I felt pity for him and I was try change him but he in answer in decisive moment when I saw good chance to do it. In that moment I tried to tell him that he only wasting his life but in answer Lothar slapped me and said that I am pathetic girl who is guided by animal feelings! After this I almost committed suicide but fortunately this attempt was unsuccessful so I'm sure that he has not changed and he will not change, at this point he almost shure pretends to love you and uses you."
Erika listen her lamentation with stoic calm but she understood that Lothar was more like her than she ever imagined. Meanwhile Koume was full of pain after saing these, she suffered. Every second these memories was suffer impossible to compare with anything. Her eyes showed how much she suffers.
{Me and him were more alike than I thought. I'm glad that this is only past which now can be forgotten. Our not glorious past now can be die in the cursed abyss of hell because our future begins.}Erika said in mind.
Erika next blinked and after this she looked straight in the Koume's eyes. Warmth emanated from Erika's eyes and Koume felt warmth all over body.
{Yesterday I knew that she has changed but I wasn't shure how did it happen.}Koume said in mind.{Lothar you bastard. Now I am shure that you had change her but how can I be sure that you are not using her only to achieve something.}
"The woman you knew does not exist anymore and man you knew also not exist anymore. They have become different that what you knew."Erika said with angelic voice."This two ghosts of the past no longer exist and will never come back. You have my word."
After Erika's statement Koume's eyes back to normal. They were again full of heat and cordiality.
"I understand you although I did not experience such a situation but please trust me and be the same happy girl like always. I know now that your life was full of pain and sufer, first this case with Lothar and recently what happened to you after our defeat in 62nd National High School Sensha-Dō Tournament, I feel sorry for you with all my heart what happened after that but please be happy."Erika said and sincere smile did not disappear from her face.
{She is so cool.}Said Koume in mind.
{Miho, once I hated you with all my heart but now I see that your methods are profitable, now after consoling her I feels better than usual. It's better than brute force.}
Suddenly Erika said that Koume cry and tears run down her cheeks.
"E...rika...-san..."Koume said to Erika after a while and folded arms."Arigatō gozaimasu Erika-san, you are so gorgeous!"
Erika blushed and felt a warmth in heart. Koume after a while was unable to control emotions and she hugged Erika with all strength but Erika was strong woman and it didn't hurt her.
"So Erika, you have really changed. Koume yesterday was right about you. Now gather your allies and friends and prove you can be my successors for the position of commander."Said quietly some smile girl dressed in normal Kuromorimine Girls Academy uniform with short dark brown hair, dark brown eyes, and slightly above average stature."Koume was right yesterday, you've changed yourself for the better."
{So, its looks like Koume's idea worked.}She said in mind after a while.
At the same time, Carrier New Munich.
Standartenführer Otto Günshe dressed in a gray cotton coat, black leather officers boots and gray cap M43 just watching how last soldiers of the ninth battalion go on transport boat.
Hans's blue eyes tell nothing about what he thought, just like his stoic which have stoic expression.
{Operation Berliner Garde soon will come to fruition and my battalion son will be on Carrier New Berlin and when it will happen operation Valkyrie will be feasible.}Hans thought. That thought made him smile but no one could see it because collar of his coat did not fall, but it was raised so his face was hidden.
"Herr Standartenführer."Said Hauptsturmführer Lishi who was approaching to him."Division of Steiner was defeated, Gruppenführer Martin Steiner is captured and Carrier New Munich is under control of rebels."
"It's a disaster."Hans said it with absolute seriousness but he was actually enjoying it.
{Soon this junkie Walter will be deprived of power and Eduard von Künzell and his dogs will be destroyed. This is beginning reformation of our school and beginning denazification of our school. If that happens soon our school will not be a factory of mindless cattle but independent thinkings soldiers who can become real soldiers so guards of law and order.}Hans thought and every split second thinking abut that gave him childish joy.
After a while Hans remembered this moment yesterday when he talked with five chosen by Lothar, Hans during this conversation ordered them to spread the word about plans of total Nazification LSSAH Military High School.
{Hauptsturmführer Wilhelm Goertzmann did a great job, initially I though that he is type of crazy fanatic but now I see that he have flexible mind and many talents.}Hans said in mind.
"Herr Standartenführer, everything is ready, we have to leave Carrier New Munich before rebels crush tenth battalion."Lishi said with totally serious voice."By the way, I just received message from Standartenführer Otto Günshe, he wrote that Oberstgruppenführer Lothar Rou calls a meeting of his friends at ten a.m., you are invited and car with driver will be wait for you.
{I need to get stronger and more cunning to become perfect soldier and well serve to Lothar. Without that man I and my siblings would nothing achieved. We will meet soon Lothar.}Hans said and next he headed towards ramp leading to transport boat.
"The collapse of the old order is just beginning."Muttered quietly Lishi under his breath.
Meanwhile in front of headquarters of the Kampfgruppe Heer, on a vast square whose focal point was made of metal monument which presenting Walter Rou. On square is located a crowd gathered. Crowd which was largely composed of cadets of LSSAH Military High School, they all chanted sentences like for example hang on a rope Walter Rou. They were deadly furiously, at the moment they burning flags with the white crossed keys on a black background and overthrow the monument of the Walter Rou which has ben placed before headquarters four months ago on Walter's order. He do it to emphasize his own authority.
"Death to the Führer!"Shouted someone from the crowd.
"Death to the Führer!"Shouted everyone in the crowd.
Two seconds after that monument of the Walter Rou monument collapsed on paved streets and shattered, so hard that head fell off and began to roll. Yesterday symbol of power today is a testimony of it fall.
Suddenly the crowd began to part because on the square droved armored personnel carrier Type 96 and stopped next to the fallen monument, after a while from inside came out dressed in a normal gray uniform of LSSAH Military High School and officer's cap Hauptsturmführer Wilhelm Goertzmann. He looked around and next entered on the Type 96 and cadets started come up to the armored personnel carrier.
"Gentlemen and ladies!"He shouted with all strength of his lungs and voice was heard on all square."Yesterday Führer and almost all senior officers tried to introduce rules which accompanied ones of the greatest murderers in history of human kind but we and cadets froom Carrier New Hamburg stood brave against their madness! We cadets froom Carrier New Munich shed blood in the fight against this madness, several of us lost their lives but ultimately we defeat those whoserved this madman froom Carrier New Berlin!"
Everybody gathered around started cheering and scream.
"Goertzmann!Goertzmann!Goertzmann!"
Wilhelm gesture of hands show all gathered that he asks for silence. All gathered stopped making sounds and began to listen to him.
{Krešimir, Miklós rest in peace. We knew each other briefly but your sacrifice will allowed us to turn to ash this abominations called LSSAH Military High School.}Wilhelm said in mind.
"This isn't over, Carrier New Frankfurt, Carrier New Breslau and Carrier New Berlin still are under power of the madman, those who are still loyal to Führer can attack us so we have to be ready!"Wilhelm said, these words ended his speech and crowd started cheering again.
{Lothar, now all in your hands.}He said in mind, his body started shaking because of amazing emotions created by heat in his heart.
Carrier New Berlin 7:50.
Inside of Carrier New Berlin on one of the room which has been converted for a makeshift conference room are almost all invited on situational meeting convened by Walter.
Everyone inside created groups where they are talking. Topics of these conversations are various, some groups are talking about this meeting, others about current situation and future of LSSAH Military High School or about what to do in the current situation.
Suddenly to inside entered Lothar Rou, his entrance here caused considerable confusion. Everyone was watching him but he didn't care and after bowing he walked to the table which is in the middle of room.
"Oberstgruppenführer Lothar Rou."Said one of those present in the room.
Lothar turned slowly towards the place from which comes the voice and he saw that this said his eternal rival, Reichsmarschall Eduard von Künzell.
"Oberstgruppenführer Lothar Rou, as far as I know you has arrived on Carrier New Berlin yesterday and you don't know situation. Isn't it?"Said Eduard.
But this conversation has been suddenly interrupted by entrance to the inside Führer Walter Rou.
Situational meeting convened by Walter just started. Almost all invited are in a small but sufficient for that meeting room, in the middle of room is large and simple to make oak table on which are maps and few piles of documents and around are all invited officers. Walter sat down on the chair behind the table.
"Oberstgruppenführer Rou, I want to congratulate you. Now you are new Reichsführer of the LSSAH Military High School. Unfortunately in the current situation you only have power over commanders of Luftwaffe Kampfgruppe, Sicherheitsdienst Kampfgruppe and perhaps Kampfgruppe Heer."Said Walter with an indifferent voice.
Lothar already knew that Carrier New Munich is now under control of the rebels but he had to ask about it to not arouse suspicion.
"What do you mean mein Führer?"
"Herr Reichsführer."Said Oberstgruppenführer Reinhard von Künzell with the desire to make him aware of it."As you probably know we are struggling with a rebellion, people on carrier New Hamburg refused to obey orders of the Führer but on New Munich over half of the cadets rebelled against authority of Führer and we don't know what the exactly situation is."
Suddenly the only door in the room has been opened and into the inside entered Untersturmführer Shō ichiro and everyone looked at him. He bowed and next began to speak.
"Mein Führer, I'm sorry for interrupting meeting but we just got the report about situation on Carrier New Munich."
"So said what is the content of this report."Walter said without any interest in the voice, his mind was now really mired in potentially ways to get rid of Eduard von Künzell. Also he began to analyze others in the highest command, now it was really obsession. Obsession and maybe even paranoia already which ordered him to looks hidden enemies everywhere.
{My enemies, enemies of Odessa organization are everywhere, recent events prove it perfectly, successful assassination attempt on Heinrich Relmmih so on proponent of the full Nazification of our school leaves no illusions anymore to me.}Walter said it in mind.
"Carrier New Munich has been taken over by rebels, LSSAH Military High School currently controls only Carrier New Frankfurt, Carrier New Breslau and Carrier New Berlin."Shō said it with trembling in the voice.
Walter suddenly after hearing these words fell into a state of complete fury, he stood up abruptly and next started scream, called everyone around traitors and after a while he also hit the table with his fist after Otto Günshe urged him to calm down. In response to this Otto said that this behavior is unworthy of the someone who is Führer of the LSSAH Military High School but Otto said it with raised voice so effect was counterproductive.
"Be silent! Don't you dare to admonish me once again, otherwise I will give order to shoot you for treason!"Screamed Walter and his voice was full of endless rage.
His eyes seemed to emit red and blinding intense light at the same time. From his back emerged a dark and sinister aura whitch betraying his murderous intentions for all in the room.
This state of affairs lasted about two minutes. Atmosphere in progress of this two minutes were incredibly dense and intense. Walter was ominously looking at everyone present and his right hand began to tremble but this detail was only noticed by Lothar and Eduard von Künzell.
They perfectly understood that time of confrontation between them is coming, soon a great fight for power will begin.
Meanwhile in another part of Carrier New Berlin.
In some apartment close to Volkshalle was asleep someone who yesterday was deputy of former Reichsführer. Brigadeführer Hermann Egelein yesterday rented a apartment where he was sleeping now. He wasn't going to get up today because Egelein yesterday got drunk incredibly and now he have a powerful hangover.
In the room he slept in there were many valuables, cash and dozens empty bottles after alcohol, someone who will come here and know that here is someone in Brigadeführer rank could start thinking that this Brigadeführer is preparing to flee but before he had a lot of fun.
Suddenly he began to hear steps of several people, Hermann paid no attention to it, he was too much tired to do whatever.
{What am I supposed to do?}He said in his mind.{Relmmih is almost sure dead and I was left without orders, I shuld...}
His internal dialogue was suddenly interrupted by the sound of a door being breached, Hermann had no strength to fully open his eyes so he could only rely on his own sense of hearing. He heard steps of five pepole who go to the room where he sleeps.
"What's happening and by what right you came here?"He muttered.
"Brigadeführer Hermann Egelein, you are under arrest."Said some serious girls's voice.
Hermann opened his eyes slightly and saw that in front of his bed standing beautiful, medium-height girl with blond hair, blue eyes dressed in female versions of LSSAH Military High School uniform, so she was dressed in gray jacket adapted to women's waist with gray collar on which are insignia which heve pepole in Hauptsturmführer rank. Additionally gray skirt and black boots.
Behind her stood four tall men dressed in LSSAH Military High School uniforms and armed in MP5.
"I'm curious for what?"He said with a smile on his mouth and with contempt in the voice.
"For desertions, are you going with us."Girl replied with stoic calm in the voice.
"You can at most kiss my..."Hermann said but he was unable to finish his speech.
Girl nodded and her subordinates immediately moved towards bed. After approached sufficient distance they made an attempt to dragging out Egelein from bed.
"Let me go, you have no right to do this!"Hermann screamed but this not worked. They continued.
Kuromorimine Girls Academy 12:55.
"I do not understand."Erika said to Maho.
They stood facing each other inside of the same hangar in which yesterday Leila talked with Maho. The faded tanks are mute witnesses of they unusual conversation.
"I thought that after this what I said day before yesterday you'll want revenge."She add after a while.
Maho smiled in response.
"As you can see, you were wrong."She said to her with a voice which Erika never heard.
Maho's voice was full of sincere warmth. Until now Erika only heard her cold and calm voice.
"May I ask why you say that?"Erika said with unhidden surprise in a voice and face."For several days you speak with voice which is full of feelings, you do not hide your emotions."
Maho giggled after hearing her words. It also surprised Erika.
{It's like she's been hiding her emotions all these years under icy facade.}Erika said in mind.{It seems that this facade melted and now you show everything inside of you.}
"My lovely shimai made me realize that I should be honest with my feelings, everyone should be honest with them."Maho replied immediately after Erika's words.
"I understand."Erika said with smile on face."Now, if you don't mind. Let's back to main topic."
"Hai."Maho said immediately.
"Why did you bring me here?"Erika asked after a while.
"Because I want to show you all these tanks, they remember the times of the our school greatest splendor."Maho replied to Erika, she thanks to talking with some hope in the voice.
{That's so sweet.}Erika said in mind.{But I have to do something else before we start talking in earnest abut Sensha-do.}
"Kommandant Maho, before we start, Gomen nasai."Erika said and she bowed.
"For what do you apologize me?"Asked Maho, she was really embarrassed by Erika's apology.
"I want to sorry you for all."Erika replied."For everything what I said about you shimai, what I said about you and for everything unpleasantness which I did to your sister."
"I forgive you."Maho said immediately and without any reflection.
Carrier New Berlin 14:36
Elevator in which Lothar is just stopped and the doors swung open, he went out and saw total mess. A room which until yesterday was the Führer secretariat now was room in which there is a total mess, scattered papers, overturned tables and chairs.
{Hard to believe that just yesterday this room at this time was full of working people.}Said Lothar in mind, think about this put him in a strange mood.
He looked around for a while until he noticed doors, second in this room. This dors are lead on great lectern in Volkshalle, specifically for lecterns from which spoke hose who were in the Führer's rank.
Lothar after a while opened the door and walked over to the position from which his brother spoke to the gathered. He remembered those moments from the time when he was in Reichsmarschall rank.
After a while full of memories about this old times he walked over to microphones and he looked around.
{Once this position was very tempting.}Said Lothar in mind. But despite this he had an impression for a few seconds that he said it out loud, so loud how could.{So much power it's a realy tempting offer. I am ready to take it and rule. I am ready to let everyone in LSSAH Military High School watch Lotharus rise.
After saying it in his mind he smiled widely, nonchalant and ominously.
{This sunday operation Valkyrie will be completed and I will take over power in LSSAH Military High School. I've been preparing for this since more than one and a half year. I planned everything carefully. I've manipulated people and events and all this for one target. I have become a murderer and a war criminal for this but now I have to ask myself about something.}
His mind through all of these months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds and nanoseconds was totally committed in gaining full power in LSSAH Military High School but now...
{Did unlimited power should be intended for a single person? In some situations it is a good solution.}He saw it in his mind and after a while he remembered the example of Julius Cesar and a few more historical examples.
But after a while Lothar remembered how his brother gained full power in LSSAH Military High School and what were the circumstances then.
{But I won't do it. I'll take power in LSSAH Military High School but not completely, I must give away a large part of power to competent people. If I do it I will manage to reform effectively LSSAH Military High School and bring lasting order.}
"I've waited a long time for this. For the end of this broken order."Said Lothar and before he said rest of this what he want to say his eyes began to literally sparkle."This is beginning of Kaiserreich Military High School."
After saying these words Lothar left the platform intended for speeches and he opened the door to the Führer's office where his loyal allies waited for him.
"You were right otouto."
