Author's Note: This fanfiction is based on characters that appeared in the 2004 film "Downfall" (or "Der Untergang") and the Downfall Parodies on YouTube based on scenes from that film.

Anyway…

Chapter 1: The Warning

Adolf Hitler was sitting in his office, not feeling angry for once. It was strange. Usually one of his retarded minions would piss him off in some way. They always had a tendency to do so. Hermann Fegelein, Hitler's brother-in-law and his number-one nemesis would usually pull irritating pranks or antics against him. Alfred Jodl, one of the German military commanders in the Fuhrerbunker, would almost always object to the plans Hitler had made. Hans Krebs, one of the German generals in the bunker, always made comments about his fish. Krebs's obsession with fish and maps disgusted Hitler and aggravated him to no end. Wilhelm Burgdorf was a heavy drinker and a terrible singer. Hitler told Burgdorf many times to stop drinking in the bunker, but Burgdorf never listened to his instructions. Burgdorf often sang about Hitler, calling him a poor old man. Hermann Goring ate so much of the food in the bunker. His eating was dangerously excessive. Otto Gunsche, Hitler's informant, was not as annoying as Fegelein or Jodl, but he was still weak and useless. Gunsche would always inform Hitler about every little detail-details that Hitler already was aware of. Hitler often asked himself why he had to tolerate these morons on a daily basis. Even though they were useful at times, they seemed to enjoy pissing him off and provoking his temper.

But for once, his bunker generals did not bother him. Goring didn't eat Hitler's lunch, Fegelein did not prank Hitler for at least three weeks, and Jodl did not object to any of Hitler's plans that day. It was a great day.

In fact, it seemed too great. Hitler wondered how long it would be before one of his generals…

Gunsche rushed into the room.

"What stupid shit do you have to inform me about today, Gunsche?", Hitler asked.

Gunsche seemed nervous.

"Actually this seems serious. Rochus Misch told me to give this package to you. Misch said this package contains a message from the Soviets."

The Soviets? Hitler wondered. Whatever this message was about, it could not be good.

Hitler carefully opened the package. So much for my perfect day, he thought. Hitler found a letter and started to silently read it.

To Adolf Hitler, one of my most notable enemies. I know your generals are obviously being useless as usual. But what can they do to you is nothing compared to what I can do to you. I am sending this message to tell you that I am planning on invading several countries around the world and expanding the influence of the Soviet Union. If you or anyone else in the Third Reich try to stop me, we will declare war on your country and your people will ultimately die. Don't be stupid, Dolfy. Don't be responsible for World War III.

Forever your rival and opponent,

Joseph Stalin

Hitler dropped the letter, shuddering. His perfect day was ultimately ruined.

"Gunsche, have everyone meet me in my office. Now!", Hitler shouted.

Author's Note: What do you think so far? I'm a huge fan of Downfall and the parodies on YouTube. Truly amazing.
