"What did you two talk about?" Crawler asked as Kurt sat down beside
her.
"She won't cause any problems." Kurt assured her. "She lost her people to the Gestapo too."
"That's what makes these fights hard sometimes." Crawler pointed out. "Sometimes there are two sides to people, and we have to kill both to stop one side only."
"So if both sides were together..."
"There would still be differences in people of course." Crawler said. "Take your father for example. Yes, he was a Nazi and fought for the Reich, but he was forced to do it. It's like he has two sides to him; the evil Nazi, and the real person he is! It's all in the perspective of a person really." Seeing the look on Kurt's face, she tilted her head to one side.
"Are you all right?" she asked. Slowly, Kurt nodded and he smiled at her faintly.
"I'm fine." He said. "I think I just found the answer to a question from earlier this night."
"What was the question?" Crawler asked.
"It might mean nothing and it might mean something." Kurt shrugged. "I'll find out soon enough." Crawler smiled a bit.
"Good luck."
"Thanks." Kurt said, standing up and dusting off his pants. "I just might need it!" ***
When Kurt finally fell asleep, he wasn't surprised when he found himself in a misty field. Looking around, Kurt's tail curled up slowly as he waited to hear the sound of blades clashing.
As soon as he heard it start up, he ran towards it. Instead of SkyElf, he found Lightning Squad Nightcrawler fighting an invisible foe. He stopped slowly and he turned to Kurt, showing him that tears were falling down his cheeks. He walked up and just like before, he held out his rapier hilt first to Kurt.
Looking over his shoulder, Kurt watched as SkyElf walked up and did the same thing. Smiling, Kurt looked from one to the other, his tail swaying gently.
"You're both the same person." He said. "You're both my father, good and bad!"
With that, Kurt took both rapiers at the same time. ***
The next morning, Kurt found he rapiers resting beside him. Smiling, he sat up and he looked the rapiers over, the sun glinting off of the blades.
"Where did these come from?" SheCat asked, tilting her head to one side as she admired the blades.
"My father." Kurt said, smiling up at her. "I think I have a plan too. Go tell the others to get ready for a meeting while I have a talk with Callisto." ***
"Are you sure you want to try this?" Callisto asked, cocking an eyebrow at Kurt's plan. "It wasn't easy."
"I understand that." Kurt nodded. "But we need to take this chance, Callisto."
"You surround so sure about this." Callisto laughed softly.
"We have to give it a try." Kurt said, his eyes glittering. "If you don't want to help them, I'll go alone."
"There will be no need for that." Callisto said. "I'll help you." Smiling, Kurt stood up, his tail swaying side to side lazily.
"Good. Then let's go and try to convince the Nightscrawlers that!" ***
Moira had the base on full alert. The city was under full lock down, with all of the civilians forced to stay in their bunkers at all times. Those who left were shot on sight.
All entrances and exits were closed off, with double he amount of soldiers armed at their posts. Those who tried to enter the city were driven away, unless they were bringing in fresh supplies or soldiers.
Moira also kept all messengers from sending out messages to the Fuhrer. She didn't want any of this getting out to the Fuhrer until she finally had Kurt and the Nightscrawlers dead and done with.
She made everyone around her nervous. She was doing all of these things without permission from the Fuhrer. Anyone who did that was not expected to live very long. ***
"You want us to attack the city?" The Drastic Spastic asked.
"Yes." Kurt nodded.
"With it in complete lockdown with extra soldiers everywhere?"
"Yes."
"Including the Sentinels that just arrived?"
"That's my plan." The Drastic Spastic snorted, shaking her head a bit.
"You're insane!"
"This coming from the one who calls them self The Drastic Spastic." Kurt laughed.
"I'm not an idiot. What you're asking for is suicide!"
"I think it could work." Sorte Springer said. "If we got Magneto and his group to join us..."
"We'll lose half our people before we reach the city!" The Drastic Spastic argued. "Then we'll lose the rest of us when we actually get there!"
"Not if we planned it right!" Kurt said. "All we have to do is try to get Magneto and his group to join us! Can you?" he asked.
"I could do that." ^Sulfurous^ said, raising up a hand. "I could do it right now in fact!"
"Go do that." Kurt said, pointing with his tail, too busy trying to stare down The Drastic Spastic. "I say it will work. If we have Magneto, it will work when you attack the Sentinels!"
"The parts are made of plastic!" The Drastic Spastic said.
"Not the insides!" Sorte Springer pointed out.
"Look. I don't care if you guys want to help us or not." Kurt said, getting up in frustration. "All I know is that I need to get in that city so that I can go home! If you won't help me, then that's ok."
"I'm going with you." SheCat said, balancing a dagger on one finger. Swiftly, she flipped it up and caught it by the handle. "I want to use my knives on some Nazi throats!"
"Me too." Bamfman said.
"Count us in!" Slarti and Siona said. "You'll need some snipers on hand!"
"I'm going too." Rowena said, braiding her hair calmly. "It'll be fun!" she laughed.
Before too long, the rest of the Nightscrawlers; except for Maelstrom, Mad With Power, InterNutter, and Northstar's Love who wished to remain neutral in the decision making, said that they would help Kurt get into the city.
Snorting, The Drastic Spastic blew a stray strand of hair from her face.
"Fine." She said. "I'll help too." Smiling, Kurt twirled his rapiers before he slipped them through his belt.
"All right then!" he said. "^Sulfurous^, go and send a message to Magneto and all other rebel forces that can get here by nighttime, tell them the plan and everything!
"Tonight, we kick some Nazi ass!"
"She won't cause any problems." Kurt assured her. "She lost her people to the Gestapo too."
"That's what makes these fights hard sometimes." Crawler pointed out. "Sometimes there are two sides to people, and we have to kill both to stop one side only."
