"Yuri managed to get away, we were in a bad spot and pinned down. We had to pull back." Nina told Katyusha that the girl Brook was sent out to get had pulled out. Katyusha looked at her as she knew that her friend didn't catch the girl she was hoping for but at least the pulled out for sure and that was a good thing.
"We managed to take the tractor factory right away. With the factory gone, the liberals are running out of ground they can fight on. One last spot is the train station before the hills where the last rebellion was fought on, Nanshan, Te-Li-Ssu, Orphan, 174 Meter and 203 Meter hills. Reason we paid so much last time was the fact that they had a force and so did we. Now their so-called force is nothing more than a bunch of angry students. If we eliminate Yuri at the train station and the yard there. It will be hard for her to be able to continue her fight as the students are relying on her." Katyusha told Nina that she did her good but there was one last spot they would try fighting to the last before they would run out of ground to fight on even with the hills, they wouldn't be strong enough to hold them.
"So who are you sending in?" Nina asked as she was wondering who Katyusha chose for this final mission. Katyusha began to speak to the girl.
"Brook like usual and I want to give the girl some fresh air before we head into the final stages of combat." Katyusha told her as Nina nodded. She went to go find her friend. "Vodka is a luxury we have. Caviar is a luxury we have. Time is not." Katyusha reminded Nina what they were fighting for.
Klara was busy typing up posters for the final stages as it was clear that the rebels were going to surrender soon but the question was, how long should it take? Brook soon wandered in as she was bored and knew that she needed to catch up with Klara.
"Привет, Клара, я вижу, ты усердно работаешь." Brook began. Klara looked at her friend as Brook took off her Ushanka and wanted to settle down. She began dusting out her hair as she was getting bored with this conflict.
"Всегда был." Klara responded as she continued typing away on her typewriter as she wanted to get this finished. Brook soon sat down as she felt exhausted.
"Это восстание длится слишком долго. Я просто хочу, чтобы мы вернулись в школу и не ссорились. Я не спал так много с самого начала." Brook yawned as it was clear it was taking its toll on her. Klara looked at her as she continued typing away.
"Надеюсь, это восстание должно быть покончено со всеми счетами через пару дней. У них заканчивается земля, и тот факт, что вы разрушили большую часть их командной структуры, означает, что теперь все являются целью в ваших глазах." Klara responded as a soft knocking was heard as it was clear someone wanted to enter. "Войдите." Soon Sasha came in as he was looking for Brook.
"Brook there is something I wish to tell you." Sasha began. Brook looked at the boy as she soon began to speak. She wanted to figure out what the boy had to say.
"Begin." Brook told him as she was relaxing in her chair. Sasha looked at her as he began to speak.
"Well it's about Yuri and she is going to be heading to the train station, you might have a shot at taking her out." Sasha began. Brook was surprised as she soon looked at the boy.
"Kay says you hang out with her, but what for?" Brook asked, wondering what Sasha had in mind. Sasha began speaking.
"I don't even like her that much but I was sent in there to fix everyone's boots just for money as mother would say. I really like Kay and would wish to defect to her side. I wish to see you win. At this point I already know who the winners are and hopefully we can declare an end to the madness. When you decide to go out to track Yuri down, I wish to come." Sasha told the two of them what he did and his reason why he liked them. Brook looked at the boy as she was relaxing but she knew the time to completely relax wouldn't last for long as she knew she needed to finish the job. Klara was busy typing away as Brook knew she had to make her decision. She soon got up as she grabbed the rifle of hers.
"Well we have a job to do, Sasha if you want to come show us around the train yard, that will be a major help to us." Brook got up. She soon decided to grab her Ushanka and put it on her head as she grabbed the rifle she was using as she began to speak. "Rest will have to wait, we can take her down in the dead of night." The clang of the typewriter sounded as Klara laid back.
"Все сделано." Klara told them as she was finished with the piece. Now the final action of the adventure could begin, it was time for the end game.
The train yard on Saunders was huge as the locomotives were in ruin, freight cars looked burned down as the steel skeletons of the engines lay desolate, among the rubble, the two students and Sasha wandered through the wreck as they knew finding Yuri was going to be difficult in the darkness. Yuri was held up in a large rook like tower that sat in the South eastern sector of the yard before the Nanshan hill. She was looking out through her scope as she was scouting the area as she herself was feeling tired. She knew now wasn't the time to fire in the darkness. She soon spotted three students wandering the yard as she began to speak.
"Oh my goodness little Sasha, I knew it. You've betrayed me." Yuri muttered to herself as she made out the little boy who was walking with Brook and Klara.
"Well I think we should settle down here for the night. After all we got a long day ahead of us. I will get going early tomorrow morning if I want to find my mother." Sasha told them as he found some rubble which they could all rest in. They soon get in one by one as Klara sets up the lantern. Brook settled down as she knew she was going to be sleeping in the rubble. Soon footsteps were heard as someone was approaching. Sasha peeked his head out as he wanted to find out who was coming. It was hard to make out the girl in the darkness so Sasha soon grabbed the lantern Klara had set up as he flashed it over. The person approaching them was Kay.
"Sasha I wasn't expecting you to be out and about." Kay told the boy that she wasn't used to seeing him in the cover of darkness. Sasha looked at Kay as he was wondering what she had in mind.
"Kay what are you here for?" Sasha asked. Kay soon began to ponder for a moment as she thought about it. She soon remembered exactly what she came out here for.
"I came here to see Brook, where is she?" Kay asked Sasha if he knew where the girl was. Sasha soon remembered as he began to speak to her.
"I have her with me, come in." Sasha moved back into their shelter as he took the lantern back in. Kay soon followed in after him as he hung the lantern back up. Kay soon looked in as Brook looked like she was asleep.
"Brook?" Kay asked, shaking her a bit. Brook woke up as she looked at Kay. Kay was relieved to see her friend was still out here and looking bored.
"What is it Kay, I'm exhausted about all of this and need some rest." Brook yawned as she knew she needed to catch some sleep. Kay looked at her as she began speaking to her.
"I know you might seem exhausted but we don't have much longer until it's all over. This is the perfect setting which you can catch her right here and then. If we do we can declare the rebellion over and we can all go home but something I should have said was to have you come back to the school as even I miss you. You've changed so much from the day you first came in until now. I wouldn't mind if you transferred back." Kay was now telling her that she was going to miss her if she went back. Brook looked at Kay as if she was tempting her with some bait but when push came to shove. Brook knew she was smarter than she was back then.
"I know your ticket may seem enticing but I wouldn't dare to abandon my loyal comrades, Klara, Alina, Nina, Nonna and Katyusha. I'm sorry but no is no, I don't want to get the haunting memories of freshman year flooding back to me. I made a lot of terrible choices and I don't want them coming back to me." Brook bluntly told Kay as she didn't want a repeat of her choices that she made on her end. Kay soon looked down as if Brook was telling her if she was right.
"But who would come to me if I was under attack, if you were my enemy and I was in danger, would you come and save me?" Kay asked Brook if they were enemies, would she come and save Kay. Brook looked at her as she began to speak.
"Yes, yes I would. I feel like I shouldn't abandon someone if they were my friend no matter who's side we're on. It's always good to put your comrades first but you don't want to see the enemy take out those dearest to you. Maybe you should put your school in your priority if you're the leader." Brook soon laid down as she wanted to go to sleep as Kay soon moved and sat next to her. She soon began to speak.
"Yeah maybe I shouldn't be chasing around my fantasies of getting someone like you. You're beautiful in my eyes and you've grown up. If it's a choice that you want to make, then I wouldn't be stopping you. I should be making my own at this point." Kay told her as she knew she needed to take better care of herself. She soon placed a hand on Brook as she knew this girl was the one she knew she wanted in her life but would it be right for her to grow up and not have someone like her by her side. Brook was already dozing off as Kay soon rolled her onto her back as she soon sat on her looking down at her as she soon began speaking. "Brook, are you still there?" Kay asked. Brook opened her eyes as she was looking at Kay as she was dizzy and slowly drifting to sleep.
"Yeah I'm here, is there anything else you wish to talk about?" Brook asked, yawned as she was tired. Kay looked at her as she began to speak.
"Yeah I think your…" Kay couldn't finish her sentence as she gulped. She didn't know how to say it or react to the situation but she knew she needed to express herself over it. She soon gulped as she didn't know how Brook would react as she soon knew she needed to do it. Kay closed her eyes as she leaned in. Smooch. Kay was now kissing Brook directly. Brook's eyes shot wide open for a moment before she relaxed and drifted back down into a drowsy state. Once their lips parted, Brook needed to question it.
"I think you couldn't finish your sentence so you decided to speak with action." Brook blushed as she knew this was embarrassing but she didn't want to deny Kay what she wanted.
"I just love you too much and I didn't want to see you go." Kay told her as she was now on top of the girl. Brook giggled for a moment as she looked at her friend.
"Do what you wish. I wouldn't resist you like before." Brook told her, giving her complete control. Klara and Sasha were completely asleep as Kay looked at her friend. Her eyes closed as she leaned in kissing Brook again. She soon collapsed on her as she knew she was the one but how long should it last?
The next morning came as it was clear that everyone was going to head their separate ways. Klara was out scouting. Kay and Brook were asleep and Sasha was heading for home. He was crawling through a pipe as he knew that this was the fastest way back to his mother. He was just about there when a pair of leather boots awaited for him at the exit. Sasha peeked his head from the exit as Yuri was looking down at him.
"Good morning Sasha." Yuri greeted him. She soon grabbed him by the collar of his clothes and dragged him from the pipe as she began to walk with him, in her arms was her scoped Kar98k and a rope but for what. This morning was foggy as Yuri began to drag Sasha with her. "You always know where to find me. Do you think that's strange?" Yuri asked. Sasha didn't bother to answer as he was held hostage by Yuri. "Apart from me, only you knew." Sasha tried to wiggle free but Yuri kept her grip on the boy. "I don't hold it against you Sasha. You've done a brave thing, you've chosen your camp. I respect that." Yuri remarked on how he chose Brook and Kay over her. "But it isn't my camp. We're both soldiers, and we're both enemies, so I know you understand." She continued to walk with the boy as she continued to speak. Sasha didn't bother to say a word. "I'm annoyed with you little Sasha, for not staying at home as I made you swear to. I'm annoyed with you for obliging me to do what I'm going to have to do." Yuri soon walked to where the perfect spot for the boy would be a hanging water pipe on one of the sidings as she knew she needed to take out the boy right there and now. It was the last time they were going to see the boy.
Kay and Brook were both naked as they were beginning to stir. Kay knew she had the most amount of fun as she began to get dressed with her friend.
"I never knew I wanted it more than I would have imagined." Kay began as she was getting dressed. Brook looked at her as she began to speak while dressing herself too.
"Yeah I was too tired to experience most of it, I hope I didn't wake anyone up with your actions." Brook replied as she must have slept through most of it. Kay looked at her as she soon began to speak.
"I just wanted to give it to you before you left. Even if you do get married to a handsome man later on in life but if you change your mind then come to me and I can get married to you." Kay replied poking Brook on the nose. "I am very happy with you and hopefully can grow into me someday."
"Even though we may not be friends from the start, it would be a crime to declare something like this to go unnoticed." Brook told her as she began to take to her. Kay soon puts her arms around her as she holds her.
"We went from being mortal enemies to best friends in the span of a couple of years. I really do like that you can change to being a better person. And now I'm the person sleeping with you." Kay smiled as they were now fully dressed. Kay soon looked into her blue eyes as she soon began to speak. "I really do miss the hairstyle you first came to Saunders in, you looked much cuter that way but I feel like I should do your hair before you leave." Kay soon leaned in and began kissing Brook again. Brook's eyes closed as she began spinning around as they were waiting on Klara to come back and report to what she found. Soon Kay released her as she noticed something was off. After looking out for a moment unable to recognize the object in the fog. She grabbed the binoculars to get a better glimpse of the object. Kay gasped in horror as she saw what the object was.
The hanging object was Sasha, he was completely lifeless as he was dangling by a noose around his neck hanging from a water pipe. Kay began to break down from the sight of this.
"OH MY GOD!" Kay wailed as she knew Sasha had been killed. She raced over as she grabbed Brook's rifle filled with anger that Yuri would do such a thing. Brook tackled her down as she was wiggling from her. "Let me go! Get off me!" Kay screamed squirming from Brook's grasp. Brook knew she had to reason with Kay.
"NO! This is what Yuri wants! This is what she wants! If you go out there to get her, she'll kill you and if I go out there running after you, she'll kill me too." Brook told her that they shouldn't be stroking Yuri's ego and playing out what she wanted.
"Let me go!" Kay squirmed under her as she wanted to be free. Brook soon decided to make a promise to Kay.
"This is what she wants! I'll get her. I'll promise I'll get her. And her rifle too. I promise Kay." Klara soon came back as they knew that they needed to tell Tania about this as they soon packed up and left the area.
The next goal was to find and catch Yuri.
[A/N]: Poor Sasha. He never really wanted to achieve his goal but he does help out the main characters until his demise. I hope his sacrifice doesn't go unavenged. Brook's next goal is now entirely on Yuri as she has now killed someone. Hopefully Brook can get rid of her for her crimes. Let's keep the ball rolling forward. That is all for now. Goodbye.
