I know where it is going and how it's going to end unfortunately the end...well I guess I'll tell ya'll later or you can just read.
Just a reminder the bold is when they are speaking in Russian.
Thanks RussianNekojinlover whose review got me writing this chapter and inspiration for the next. XD And also thanks to all those other reviewers who reviewed and made me feel very special. Thank you send love and kisses (chocolate) and hugs too.

Chapter 05 Time Off and Apple Practice
"The advance is moving slower than we anticipated" Kai said as he pointed to arrows on the map that was spread over a large table in the center of the room. "It's the British right? They are the ones that are slowing down" Bryan pointed out the British advance that seemed farther back than the others. "Surprisingly the Nazis have started to try and break their lines first. As you can see most of their remaining forces are facing them. Though the United States are doing a good job supporting them I believe it is General Eisenhower who is with them" Kai interjected pointing at the big star on the map that was beside a bell shaped piece. "So where exactly does that leave us?" Tala asked folding his arms.
Kai smirked and took a letter from a folder and threw it on the table. Tala warily took the letter and unfolded it. "Are you serious?" Tala asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Absolutely, they are giving us time to regroup."
All the officers looked at each other and smiled slightly.
"This is freaking awesome!" Ian yelled as he ran into their tent startling the Chinese who sat reading a book. "What happen?" Rei asked not believing that they had won the war already, Spencer shook his head "We get a few says to ourselves" he answered before lying down on his cot. Rei blinked and looked at the redhead who had barely walked in talking quietly with Bryan before the two nodded and Tala turned to Rei who was looking at him curiously.
Tala smiled as he moved towards him "I believe Ian and Spencer have already told you the good news?" "Yeah it's great to have a few days to relax" Rei nodded and leaned against Tala. Smirking the redhead turned his head to the side "You mean time for us don't you?" "Tala!" Rei blushed as the memory of what they had done in showers came back to him. "What? I didn't say anything bad" Tala tried defending himself from the slap coming his way.
"Hey Tal?" Ian called from his cot, "So what was holding up the showers a couple of days back?" Tala choked a little before his cheeks turned a bright pink. "What are you talking about?" he asked finally turning his back on the short sniper. "Well some of the guys were saying that you had locked the door to the officer's shower. I wonder what you could have been doing?" Ian smirked "For your information shrimp it's called taking a shower in privacy" Bryan cut in his voice hiding underlying amusement. "Yeah whatever that's not what Raphael said" Ian said with a chuckle.
Rei stifled a slight giggle as he witnessed Tala's horrified expression that slowly turned dangerous. "Well Raphael needs to go clean his ears" Tala pouted slightly crossing his arms and legs. "Heh whatever he also told he heard a nice 'I'm coming…I'm coming" Ian imitated Rei's voice. "Ian you have ten seconds before I skin your short ass" Tala ground out. "Shit!" the small Russian quickly vaulted off his bed and ran out of the tent an angry wolf behind him.
Rei couldn't help but laugh though he was also embarrassed that someone had heard them. "You show embarrassment too easily" Bryan said as he looked over at the raven haired teen who was still chuckling a bit. "What are you talking about?" "Don't play dumb with me kitty?" "Eh? Kitty?" Rei asked "You have features like a cat" Spencer murmured from where he lay on his cot a book in hand. Rei blinked and unconsciously touched his face.
"Ahh! That little shrimp!" Tala yelled out as he stormed back into the tent fuming ten minutes after taking after the shorter sniper. "He went into a tunnel didn't he?" Spencer smirked as he watched the redhead throw himself on the bed unceremoniously. "Spencer when you see that little bastard tie him up to a pole and leave him there for target practice" Tala said as he glanced at Rei who had a contemplative look on his face.
"Rei you okay?" "Yeah…do I really look like a cat?" Rei blurted out sending Tala a confused look. Tala blinked and looked at Rei closely "…Sort of…why?" "Well Bryan called me kitty" Rei said blushing as Tala chuckled at the name. "It's not funny you jerk" Rei muttered and tackled the redhead. "Whoa hey!" the two wrestled on the ground until Tala pinned the Chinese to the ground. "Shit kitty you just gave Red a workout" Bryan smirked as he watched Tala gasping for breath.
"I like the name I think it suits you Rei. The next thing you'll do is meow like a cat too" Tala laughed as Rei glared at him. "I'm not a cat okay. Leave me alone now get off your heavy" he whined "No actually I think I like seeing you under me" Tala smiled as the raven haired blushed "Shut up." "Kiss him already Tala we promise to turn around so we don't have to look at the gruesome sight" Spencer snickered somewhere behind them.
"Don't mind if I do" Tala said and leaned down and captured the other's lips in a kiss. "God did not want to see that" Bryan grumbled and turned over on his cot so he faced the other way. Tala couldn't help but chuckle a little as he released Rei's lips. "You idiot" Rei muttered as he raised an arm and wrapped it around Tala's neck "Why'd you stop?" he murmured and brought Tala back down into a kiss their lips moving against each other gently. Tala smiled as he fully covered Rei with his body putting more pressure into the kiss.
"Let's go see what Kai plans to do on our days off" Spencer said as he stood and tapped Bryan on the shoulder. "Alright, enjoy yourselves" he mocked as he walked out chuckling when Tala showed him the finger. "Have a good day sir. We will announce that you are very busy if anyone asks for you" Spencer murmured and the two Russians walked out.
"Bastards" Tala murmured as he pulled away slightly to retrieve air. "Mmm whatever you know they are just going to find Ian to make sure he doesn't come back in here" Rei soothed as he kissed the other's jaw nipping lightly at the skin. "Yeah…now let's get off this floor I imagine it's not the most comfortable of places" Tala said and moved off the Chinese extending a hand to him. Gladly taking it Rei stood and wrapped his arms around the redhead.
"Knowing Kai and the others I'm sure they are going to come at some point so let's go find a more private area" Rei purred nipping Tala's neck lightly. "Hmm sounds like an idea let's see where we can find a good spot" Tala agreed and teasingly pinched Rei's cheek "Oh you are such a cute kitty" he said in a baby voice. "You are going to regret that" Rei muttered as he followed the redhead out of the tent.
OOooOOooOOooOOooOOooOOooOO
"Concentrate, breath in and out slowly, keep your hands steady remember the sniper is resting on the cushion so it's not going anywhere" a soft voice lectured as the other took his sights carefully. "You have your sight now breathe squeeze the trigger and slowly release your breath and don't move the rifle until ten seconds have passed." The prone figure did just that and the shot rang as it fired. "Nice it looks like a pretty clean shot" Bryan said softly as he looked through the binoculars at the target. "Yeah it is" Tala muttered with a slight smile on his lips "Now let's see the damage." Rei slowly stood and followed the other two who were grinning from ear to ear.
"Alright guys, that wasn't cool okay I could have died" Ian muttered glaring at the three companions. "You so deserved it Ian for interrupting us that last day" Tala reminded him of the day him and Rei wanted privacy as he picked up half an apple. "Fresh fruit anyone?" he asked holding up a piece. "Yeah sure" Bryan muttered and took and cleaning with a little water he carried in a tank. "I hope you learned your lesson Ian. You're in luck that I didn't want to kill you" Rei said as Tala untied the short Russian. "Yeah, yeah whatever but that was a nice shot. You're getting pretty good" Ian congratulated taking the half apple Tala offered him. "For a pilot" Bryan murmured and Rei glared "Jerk."
"Anyways Kai said that the top officials are throwing a little 'Motivation Party' for us tonight so relax a bit Ian take a shower you stink and we wear dress uniforms tonight" Tala informed as he scanned a piece of paper picking out the more important details. "Nice can't wait" Ian's sarcasm dripping like water from a faucet. "And there will be plenty of cheap beer and vodka" Tala added with smirk. "Alright I am so going to be the first one there" Ian said and took off running Bryan following a little ways behind.
"Hey Tala I don't have a dress uniform" Rei said as they stayed "I know kitty that's what Spencer has been doing this entire time" Tala smiled and kissed the raven hair's cheek. "By the way that was an awesome shot for only doing it the fifth time" he complimented as they began to walk. "You sure?" "Hell yeah it takes a while if you don't have a good teacher. See I had fucking ass of a teacher so it took me a while to be able to hit an apple at that distance but I practiced every chance I got and I perfected my shot" "And that's why you are known as Sniper Wolf?" "Yeah but there is still some others that are way better such as Vassili and Nina she is the shit" he muttered darkly. "Nina?" "Yeah she's killed over four hundred Nazi officers. I've only killed like maybe one hundred and fifty so yeah I'm not the best in Russia" he mourned a little but held a smile on his face.
Rei nodded and couldn't help thinking about his squad in the RAF he hadn't had time to think of them with all the things that had happened to him but now he wondered what became of his friends. Remembering he felt a slight sadness in his heart he really missed the French pilot in his squad Oliver Polanski and his flirty Italian friend Enrique Giancarlo. And then the silver haired pilot with the cockiest attitude in the entire world came to his mind Garland Siebald. He sighed softly although the two were not in the friends category he still sort of missed him and his degrading comments on his flying.
"Rei, earth to Rei anyone in there" a soft knock on his forehead woke him from his thoughts and he looked around seeing where they had gone. "What happened?" "Nothing you just zoned out on me a bit" Tala answered softly he could tell that the RAF pilot had been thinking about his friends. Wrapping his arm around him they walked in silence to their tent. "Here is the uniform Papovich was being an ass but I got it" Spencer said handing Tala a package. "Great thanks Spencer you can go and do whatever" Tala nodded and handed Rei the package. "Here you go Rei your own personal dress uniform" Tala smiled.
Rei took it and looked at it he still felt weird, nodding he walked to his cot and laid the package on the bed before sitting and resting his head in his hands.
Frowning Bryan stood and motioned for Tala to follow him. "What's wrong with him?" Sighing Tala leaned against the medical building "I don't know but I think me talking about my betters probably got him thinking about his friends and stuff" crossing his arms he looked sadly at the tent where the raven hair sat alone with his thoughts "Sadly I realize that he wont be with us forever and he'll have to go back to the RAF after we rendezvous with the British in Berlin." "Tala I think it is you not us that realize it. We've known since we saw him. You took him in Tala you are the one who fell even though you know you have someone waiting for you back in Pskov" Bryan corrected knowing he was hurting the slightly younger Russian by reminding him that he had someone waiting for him, someone he knew was not his choice.
"Must you remind me of Rashka now" he muttered bitterly Tala was one of the few wealthy families who retained some power after Stalin took over. His family being smart quickly allied themselves to Stalin and the Red Party along with some other influential families in Russia and so retaining some of their wealth and power. At some point his parents decided that he would marry a girl that was from a very powerful family within the Soviet government. He absolutely hated the girl she everything he did not want to be or be close to.
"Tala you have to realize that the war will end and Rei will have to go back to Britain or China wherever the hell he wants to go. Don't let yourself become attached" Bryan advised knowing that he had spoken too late. "It's already too late Bryan I wont be able to let go of him so easily now" Tala spoke softly as he ran his fingers over his cloak. "I know, that's why I'm telling you to make as much of it as you can before you split ways" Bryan said and walked away.
Tala leaned against the wall thinking over what Bryan had just told him. Coming to some sort of conclusion he made his way to Rei. He stopped seeing the Chinese unfolding his uniform running his fingers over the some of the golden brass buttons. "I hope you take a shower before putting it on" he said lightly. "Yeah I was planning on putting it on right now while I'm still sweaty from the workout this morning" Rei nodded with a smiled turning to look at the redhead. "Hey no need to get sarcastic" Tala wagged a finger as he hugged the Chinese to him.
Rei knowing better than to ask just hugged the redhead back enjoying the soft silence and the warmth.
Well how was it? Tell me whatever you think. And yes the slight angst will be coming in. It has to in order for my ending to work out.
Well please Review I would really love it if you did. XD
Love ya'll.
