"Vell then!" He stands up and forces Stephano to lay down before covering him. "All that crying probably made your fever vorze, you muzt zleep. I 'ave vork to attend to zo I vill be out for avhile." General Bro opens the door to leave with the breakfast tray in hand.
"Uh... Ludwig?"
"Ja?" He asks looking at the bed.
"I love you."
"I love you too... und I vill try my bezt to zave Jennifer." He then leaves, back at the shooting range Pewdie fires off more shots at moving targets hitting all dead center, he laughs as he twirls the empty gun.
"Great job." Private Goodrich claps before taking away the gun and handing him a cross bow loaded with one arrow. "Alright, now we move onto arrows with these you have to account for the wind. We'll be in the castle most of the time but they might be guarding the door." Pewdie wets his fingers then sticks it in the air to check the wind, finding it calm he aims at the target on the ground and fires. The arrow sticks in the middle, private Goodrich is amazed at how good Pewdie is at shooting. "Wow... well I guess we can move onto a moving target and then we can go get some lunch after that we can fit in training with private Cole."
She says swinging the target, Pewdie aims and shoots hitting it dead center, he smirks before giving the cross bow back to the blond, they go to lunch. At the Barrels castle Jennifer sits in her stone throne on the very top floor of the castle. The walls are made of gray stone and the floors are concrete, also in the room is a man in his late forties. He looks just like the Barrel clones but much older, his brown hair is beginning to gray and he has a white bushy beard. He stands looking at the back wall which is made completely of glass, Stephano's sword is mounted on the wall.
"Jennifer," The main Barrel calls getting the young woman's attention. "we now know where the camp is. Why is it that we do not invade?" Jennifer clears her throat, gets up, and walks over to the main Barrel.
"With Stephano dead," Her voice shows that she's still grieving for the 'death' of her little brother. "their best chance is General Bro who'll be too grief stricken ta fight." Confused the main Barrel turns to face her.
"How do you know he won't want revenge?" Jennifer sighs.
"General Bro and Stephano were a team and a strong one at that. Apart the two are powerful but have more openings so even if dat's true he'll be in a blind rage and easy ta kill. Now if ya don't mind could ya leave me alone?" The main Barrel nods.
"Yes, I need to feed the clones anyways." With that he leaves, Jennifer picks up a picture of Stephano she has sitting on the arm of her throne, she remembers when he was almost erased.
Flashback
Stephano had been acting strange, he didn't train or sharpen his blade nor did he want to go hang out with Piggeh. He'd hung out with Sargent Bro but all he'd do is nap on the German teens lap while he read. Jennifer notices the strange behavior and confronts him about it, she looks all over the large eight story castle until she finds him slowly walking down the stairs to the first floor landing. Given how slow he's moving and that his room is on the fifth floor she can only guess how long it took him to get all the way down there.
"Stephano, we need ta talk." The golden boy stops and sits on the steps feeling drained of energy, Jennifer sits next to him. "Are you alright, you've been actin' strange lately and it's startin' ta worry me." Stephano leans on the wall before answering.
"I've just been feeling really tired lately... it's just because Pewdie hasn't called me for a while." Stephano moans and rubs his legs."My legs are killing me, they feel like jello and pin needles." Jennifer rubs Stephano's back.
"How long's it been since he called you?" Stephano pushes down on his legs trying in vain to make the dull throbbing pain go away.
"Two... maybe three months."
"Vhat?" Sargent Bro asks walking up the stairs, he kneels in front of Stephano. "That iz very dangerouz. He hazn't forgotten about you haz he?" Stephano mumbles something making Sargent Bro get closer in order to hear him. "Vhat? I didn't catch that."
"'M tired... could you take me to the couch?"
"Ja." He picks up the young warrior and carries him bridle style down the stairs to the couch. He tries to head for the door but is stopped when Stephano grabs his shirt, it's hot out so he's wearing camo pants, military boots, and a tight white shirt.
"Where are you going?"
"Training, love." He kneels down and pecks Stephano on the cheek. "I'm getting cloze to becoming ze general, can't zlow down yet. I vill visit after I'm finished." After saying this he leaves, he then leans against the two large doors when they're shut. "I'll 'ave to zee if I can do anyzing."
"Really, now?" Sargent Bro jumps after Jennifer emerges from a stone wall, do to her skin and clothes she can blend in with stone and become almost invisible.
