"My grandpa fought in ww2 against the Nazis," Anna explained.

She showed me a huge mansion.

"I sure wish I had someone to share it with."

She pecked me on the cheek and walked off.

"I'll get your stuff from the armory," she said.

Then I heard gunfire. "Dangit, not again…"

I ran through. We met each other on the upstairs floor. We both nodded. Time for action.

I ran down the stairs, span around and capped a tango in the head.

Anna whipped out her Anaconda Black and shot a soldier in the face.

I jumped up and jabbed a knife into the back of a head while Anna went out the window, m4 blazing.

Then-

a scream.

I looked down and saw her lying there.

"Anna! NO! STAY WITH ME!" I pleaded.

"I'm dying Axel…it's time."

"I can't let you!"

"I know who I wanna share my house with…" She slowly closed her eyes.

"DANGIT!" I yelled. "EVERYONE I'VE WORKED WITH, EVERYONE I'VE LOVED, THEY ALL DIE!"

I found that b****** Overlord, and I stuck a grenade in his mouth and kicked him out the door.

"For you, Anna."

I saw a butterfly. It led me to the library in the house. I opened the book it landed on, and saw a picture of her in her gear.

The back said, "Axel, I am always with you…"

and I believed it.

THE END
