All was still in the forest, the occasional chirping of a songbird, the chattering of squirrels, the rat-ta-ta of the men and women at the far away firing range. It was all peaceful. Then, a rustle of a bush, a man in camouflage armor crawled slowly from his hiding spot. Then several others crawled out from their hiding spots, intent on reaching their objective in time.
All they had to do was capture the enemy position without the enemy knowing that they are there. All of their weapons had silencers on them, just for safe measure. After a few minutes of crawling, sweeping the area, checking their location, and a long, difficult hill to climb, they reached their objective. They all stood up, weapons drawn, sweeping the premises, which was a small bunker, about 30ft square, textbook design. Machinegun turrets on the front and sides, a metal door on the rear, gravity operated in an emergency, staircase led downstairs to the ammunitions room, supply rooms, and sleeping quarters. The seven soldiers walked inside, guns drawn, one soldier motioned four of them to go downstairs and clear out the bunker.
Just as they were about to go downstairs, several safeties were heard clicking off. The soldiers wheeled around to the doorway and saw several soldiers in black armor, guns pointed at their heads. The one closest to the door took off his helmet, and facemask. It was John.
John sighed slightly, "That was the poorest excuse for a plan I've ever seen, you never checked the outside of the premises before you went in, also, you never kept some one on watch duty to see if the enemy knew you were coming. You all fail, again."
The seven soldiers slowly walked out of the bunker, guns hanging over their shoulders by their slings. As they walked back to the boot camp, an 'enemy' soldier walked up to John.
"Sir, You think you were a little hard on them?" she asked.
"Amelia, I know what I'm doing here, don't question my motives."
"Yes sir."
John turned to face her, "Nice job spotting them from that far away, even with your scope set on minimum, I'm impressed."
She stood straighter, "Thank you sir."
"I'm considering having you take on special sniper training. Are you willing to accept this?"
"Yes sir." She said, containing her happiness.
"Good, you're new trainer is Major Victoria, she is under my command tree, so she will report to me on your progress."
"Yes sir, thank you sir."
"You will meet her at the firing range at 2030 hours, be well rested and ready by then."
"Yes sir," she saluted briskly.
"Good. Now squad, back to the camp! Double time!"
"Yes sir!" they all saluted sharply and jogged back to the compound.
John was about to jog after them to keep pace when his radio buzzed. He took out the radio, "Lieutenant John here, what is it?"
"Ah, Sir john, I hope I'm not interrupting?"
"Of course not Walter, what is it?"
"Yes, well, it seems that Millennium has made an advance."
"Where?" he replied hastily.
"They've captured all of Germany, and are on the move toward Russia. Relatively easy for some reason. And because of that, their army has nearly doubled in size."
"Damn, I thought this was going to happen."
"What is it?"
"They're trying to do what Hitler never accomplished over sixty years ago, they're trying to recreate their Thousand Year Reich. And they're doing it the same way they did it. Walter, tell the Russians to stop them at Poland at all costs.
"Right away sir."
"Also, we need to hold the Germans at the French border, if we don't then we'll just have to do another D-day. Pray to god that we don't have to do that."
"Yes sir right away, I also have a message from Integra."
"Yes Walter?"
"She requests that all infantry training be hastened, I believe she has something special in mind."
"Of course Walter, right away. John out," he turned of his radio and ran off to the squad.

"I can assure you General, there will be insignificant resistant when we reach Poland."
"Of course mein Führer, but are you certain they won't be retaliating when we reach Russia?"
"They will retaliate, but they will be ill prepared. They don't have the means to stop our undying wrath. They shall all suffer for they're crimes against the Fatherland! General, begin the invasion Allgemein!"
"Ja Führer, sofort!" The general saluted and walked out of the office.

"Aim a little higher next time Amelia."
"Yes ma'am."
A deafening crack filled the air once more as Amelia fired of another fin stabilized .50 caliber round into the target dummy, the round blowing a fist sized hole into the head of the target.
"Good Amelia. Now try hitting the target while it's moving."
"But ma'am, I can already hit a moving target, surely this training isn't necessary."
"Yes, of course, but this target is moving at the same pace as the real FREAK vampire. Around 50 kmh."
Amelia did not reply, but simply rested her head against the but of the weapon, peering down the scope of the sniper rifle, ready to fire. Seras motioned for the target dummy to be set in motion around the range. Amelia slowly tracked the fast moving target with her eye, waited for the target to get into position and…crack another round splits the air, missing the dummy by mere centimeters.
"Better than I expected Amelia, but you need more training, we will continue the training tomorrow."
"Yes ma'am," Amelia began packing up her sniper rifle and set it into its locker. She was closing the door, when she paused, "Ma'am, permission to speak."
"Go right ahead."
"Ma'am, what is it like? To be a vampire, what is it like? The sensation of your blood being drained, all of it, what is it like?"
Seras paused as well, in deep thought, recollecting her memories of that particular night, when Alucard gave her the undead life. This brought back a wave of emotions, her comrades dieing in her arms, becoming mindless ghouls. She fought back these emotions as she answered Amelia, "It's a strange feeling. You can feel the blood being drained from your body. The warmth of your body escaping with the blood. It was scary at first, but, it's really hard to describe."
Amelia contemplated her memories, "And being a vampire, what is that like?"
"Its hard to get used to, not being able to go out in the light. Well, hard for me anyway. When you get hungry, your not really hungry, I remember trying to quench that hunger a few times myself, trying to digest human food, our bodies can't process it anymore, so its really difficult to adjust."
"I see."
means "Yes Leader, right away!"
ZR: Amelia WILL get more involved! Just be patient here. Anyway, RR please!
