Thanks to Vikishus and Me1anch0lich0lic for reviews!

Ludwigs POV

Ludwig frowned as his brother ran off. That boy was too much to handle...he just didnt want him to get close to the Russian...Ludwig lips formed a thin line and he went to his office. He started to take his jacket off when a soldier bursted through the door panting. "Sir!" He said and Ludwig acknowledged him with a nod.

"We have some news from the frontline." The soldier said. Ludwig nodded and motioned for him to continue. "As such they have lost many soldiers and are in need of some replacements..." The soldier stopped as Ludwig put up a hand. "I see were this is going, but sadly prisoners need guards, guards can't be replaced that easily." He growled. "Uh...well...they told me to give you this." The man said giving the papers to Ludwig.

"Are you sure this will work?" He asked. The man nodded. "It has worked in other camps...We can have everything set up withing a few days..." He said and Ludwig nodded. "Interesting..." He read the papers over and smiled a cold smile. "Great...then you will have a list of guards to take." He smiled waving the man off who went to talk with some of the lowers ranks to help set things up.

Ivans POV

Ivan looked around for the blond man or his brother and was disapointed when he didnt see them. He ran into a guy who was giving orders to some men as they started building a new building. Ivan frowned. "What are you building?" He asked the man who jumped as Ivan put a large hand on his shoulder. "Oh dear...Uh...Showers..." He said trying to slow down his frightened heart. Ivan's eyebrows knitted together thinking. "For what?" He asked.

The man let out a shaky laugh. "The jews and fags..." He sighed. "They go in one end and they basically come out in body bags on the other." The man said smirking. Ivan felt a small flame of anger when he commented about the people like that. Especially the ones like him...Ivan shook his head and left the guy alone.

"You look troubled." Ivan twirled aroud to see the Albino male walking up to him. "Something on that mind of yours?" He asked his red eyes seeming to bore into Ivans soul. "Nyet..." Ivan lied. Gil knew that he was lying. "Sure...mind if I join you in a walk?" He asked. Ivan shrugged his shoulders. "Nyet.." He repeated. Gil pulled a smoke out and lit it. "Sorry would offer you one, but Bruder took the pack from me." He scoffed.

Ivan smiled and then thought for a minute. "You should know about Ludwig...what is he like?" Ivan asked. "Why you gonna ask him out?" Gil scoffed at the Russian. "Hes a hard ass, and he thinks hes better than everyone else." Gil snorted and saw someone wave towards him. "Be right there...Listen...he's got a hard heart, he doesnt need friends...well at least thats what he always says...Just...dont get close to him." Gil said before walking off. Ivan frowned. Could the Albino German really tell that he was in love with his brother? Nyet...he would of had him arrested. Ivan sighed. He would have to keep these growing feelings to himself...dammit.

Gilberts POV

Gil sighed and took the letter that the man had given him. He read it over and let out a strangled cry. He dropped to the ground and cried. Ludwig came rushing to his brother and knelt beside him. He took the letter and read it.

We are to inform you of the passing of Roderich Edelstien. As the benifactor to his property that is currently in the possesion of the Nazi party, his property will be delivered to you upon the ending of the war. If at anytime you are not avalible to recieve his property they will be given to your next of kin, Ludwig Belishmidt.

Roderich Edelstien died from natural causes in the Berlin Concentration Camp, he was incarcerated for homosexuality. As you are the closest you have as kin, a childhood friend, you were to be informed of his passing.

Ludwigs POV

Ludwig held his brother as he cried. "Bruder..." He cried with him. "Its my fault..." Gil cried and Ludwig patted his head soothing him. "Nein...It is not your fault..." Gil cried harder. "If me and him...he would still be here not in that damn place...Natural causes my ass! He starved most likely!" Gil cried and Ludwig tried his best to calm his screaming brother. He did not want the other soldiers hearing this.

Ludwig was the only one who knew that his brother was gay, Roderich his first and only love. Ludwig knew how it felt to have someone he loved die...he would never forget Feli...but how many times had Gil told him to buck up and find someone else? Now Ludwig realized he had to tell the same to Gil.

Thanks for reading! Please review! I know, its sad, I almost cried...there will be flashbacks to when Gil and Roderich were together and also about Ludwig and Feli ^^ Thank you!
