Questions and Answers:
ExcaliberShooter: I have been watching a WW2 historian YouTuber called "TIK" and I learned that Nazi Germany was suffering major economic problems thanks to the policies of the National Socialists and the amount of money they were spending on of the military and alot of their economic policies were not helping at all and so if Hitler didn't invade Poland when he did, Germany may have had a major economic crash. Plus I heard alot about the supply problems the German army was suffering from. Like a major oil crisis throughout the war, large food shortages, and terrible logistics that were a complete nightmare. I wonder how that's going to play out in this story. When the Nazis run out of countries to brutalize and conquer and steal resources and run out of manpower their economy is going to bust.
A: Hehehe~. (Looks at the later chapters and back at the reader.) What economy? Now that we got that out of the way. Forgive me for using Google translate. Translations will be at the bottom. Now on with the show.
(Should I post this story on Ao3 as well? And yes the intro and outro will change in later chapters.)
Intro:
We see our characters both friends and foes alike, sitting in a bar(like the one in Who Framed Roger Rabbit with Jessica Rabbit) waiting for tonight's entertainment. McArthur takes a huff and puff of his corn cob pipe with Van hunched over beside him as he watches Tatsumi walk towards the table that is in front of the stage. On one side of the room Hitler and the Count discuss something while Benito Mussolini takes another swing of his drink and Hirohito gives Tatsumi a sideways glance. At the main part of the bar BF and Louis Fox started a drinking contest.
As Tatsumi approached the table he saw Mine was already bored until she saw him pulling up a chair beside her and sat down. She gave him a warm smile which he returned to her. As he looked around the room again he saw Candice starting an argument with Quetz as Brochan ate some food at another table with Dave sitting beside him with his arms crossed over his chest. The lights dimmed a bit and a white spot light hit the red curtains as the music started to fill the room.
(What Could Have Been)
I am the monster you created (The room grew cold.). You ripped out all my parts. And worst of all, for me to live, I gotta kill the part of me that saw (The sound of metal dragging across wood filled the room). And I needed you more. (Her cold lips ghosted over his ear.) I hope you know we had everything. (Esdeath's hands traced his body leaving a cold touch regardless of clothing.) When you broke me and left these pieces. (Her hand rested on Tatsumi's throat.) I want you to hurt like you hurt me today, andmI want you to lose like I lose when I play "What Could Have Been". (Her hold tightened.) Oh, "What Could Have Been"… (She released her hold and walked around the table not letting her eyes off of him.) Why don't you love who I am? (Leans in closer.) What we could have been..?
(Tatsumi ran out of the bar and into the streets away from Esdeath. He came across a car wreckage that had Mine laying face first on the hood of the car unresponsive as the blue haired general collected the pink girl's blood in a cup. She looked at Tatsumi with a sideways glance.)
I am your ghost, a fallen angel. You ripped out all my parts. (She looked down at the glass and back at him.) I couldn't care what invention you made me. (The glass met her lips allowing the red liquid to pass through. Blue clashed with green as the red was finished.) 'Cause I, I was meant to be yours. (Tatsumi ran away from the nightmare that played out in front of him.) I hope you know we had everything! (Tears welled up in her eyes as a black glove hand touched her shoulder. She looked over and saw the Führer.)
(She watched as the Führer offered a hand towards her.) When you broke me and left these pieces. I want you to hurt like you hurt me today, and I want you to lose like I lose when I play… (He pointed towards the red button that glowed in the blackness.) I want you to hurt like you hurt me today, and I want you to lose like I lose when I play… What Could Have Been.

"Where the hell did this storm come from?!" A guard asked his partner while they continued their patrol around the outer perimeter of the American side of the strait.
"How should I know Gunther your guess is as good as mine." Johann replied as a search light illuminated their backsides.
"Oh ladies." A voice called out to them from the mg42 nests. "How's the weather? Makes you nice and wet doesn't it." The rest of the men laughed at the two.
"Very funny Otto!" Gunther yelled over the rain. "Why don't you join us? I'm sure you'll love it."
"Sorry boys but I'm not playing in the mud like those American pigs. Maybe you should start oinking like one too. I mean look how mucked up you two are." The men continued to laugh for a moment until they heard no reply. "Alright boys that's enough you can come back just remember to dry yourselves off before coming back." Yet still no response. Otto grabbed the radio and spoke. "Give me light." A single flare was shot from an artillery piece illuminated the night revealing all to see its secrets.
Across the vast field three crosses stood off in the distance with one person nailed on each cross. The officer took out his binoculars to see who was on the cross and found both Gunther and Johann were crucified before them. His eyes landed on the final cross to find a scarecrow watching him with glowing orange eyes. Otto moved the binoculars away from his eyes and saw the scarecrow hoping off the cross.
The men watched as Dave walked away from the crosses and towards them as the light died out only leaving two eyes and a smile glowing orange in the dark getting closer by the second. "Ready your rifles men." It was at the halfway mark. "Aim." A quarter left. "Fir-!" A scythe emerged from the darkness silencing him and pulled back into the night as his head rolled off his shoulders. Yet it didn't stop his men from following his orders as they released a wave of bullets at Dave. Dave stumbled back at the bullets that hit his body. As the guns ran dry he stood before them, holes littering his body like swiss cheese only for the fabric to stitch itself back together leaving the men speechless.
"My turn." He said as he raised his hands towards the men and closed his fists. In a flash the men burst into chunks of flesh and pools of blood. As the bodies hit the floor a white mist came forth from the gore and towards Dave. He watched the mist dance around his body as he absorbed it unaware of the guard in the watchtower aiming the MG42 at him.

"Outpost come in repeat. Otto response at once." The officer threw the microphone at the radio in frustration and looked at the guard. "Prepare a small party to get across this damn storm is messing up with the equipment." A guard entered the tent and saluted. "What is it trooper?"
"Sir, a guard from the otherside is approaching us."
"Ah good, perhaps he'll explain what is going on over there." He said as he and the two guards left the tent. As they approached the bridge they saw the officer in question approaching them slowly which started to annoy the commanding officer. "Tonight trooper!" He yelled back. As the trooper stood before them they saw him shivering. "Probably from the cold." He thought. "Salute your commanding officer trooper." The trooper gave a lazy salute which angered him. "Do you think this is funny cause I will not tolerate disobedience under my command!" The trooper still had not answered and only stood before them. "Answer me!" He backhanded the man knocking him to the ground revealing his face to them.
Both his eyes and mouth sewn shut. His cries were barely heard by the three as he wiggled in pain. One of the two guards looked towards the base. "Bring a medi-!" His shout was silenced by a gunshot. Both guard and commander watched as the guard fell to the ground for death to take him. The commander looked back at the trooper and saw him holding a pistol in the direction of the guard.
"What is the meaning of this?!" He questioned but the trooper pointed the gun at him. Seeing what was about to happen he yanked the remaining guard in front of himself as a meat shield and tossed the body on top of the man and ran towards the base. "Guards! Guards!" He shouted as he approached the base only for explosions to knock him back onto his back. He groaned in pain as he started to get up on his feet only for one of his legs to be yanked from under him by a large hand. As he was pulled up in the air he came face to face with BF huffing and puffing. "W-Wait! P-Please don't eat me." BF let loose a loud roar silencing him as Quetz approached him.
"Here'sss the deal. We fail the misssion you die." He explained as Candice turned his head to face her.
"Any gossip you give us is false, you die." She said as tapped his nose with a jolt causing him to yelp but was silenced as BF lifted him up higher.
"You start a forest fire, we'll eat you."
"We don't do that-." Quetz explained but BF continued shoving his finger in the Nazi's stomach.
"If you touch kids-!"
"Enough!" Quetz called out and looked back at the commander. "You get the point." The man in question glared at his captures.
"Why would I betray my Führer and country for you freaks?" BF squeezed his leg causing him to scream in pain.
"Wrong answer." Candice sang to him.
"Halt die Klappe du Hure!" He yelled at her.
"Oh what was that?" She turned to BF. "Hey B put him down for a second." BF dropped him before her on his back causing him to yelp in pain. She circled the Nazi. "Can you tell me what you were really saying?" She asked sweetly but the man stayed silent. "Oh a strong silent type. This will be fun." She said as her eyes began to glow yellow.
"Whaaaahhh!" The man yelled out as Candice grabbed his head with both hands and gave him a good amount of juice. As ten seconds passed the shocks stopped.
"Oh my it seems like someone wet themselves." The man looked down and saw the front of his uniform was soiled. He looked back up at her and saw her enjoying his humiliation. He did what any man would do to someone that had power over them. "D-Did you just spit in my hair?" Her only reply was a glare. "You. Are. Dead!" She drew her fists back with sparks jumping off of it and swung at the man.
"If it's the answers that you seek!" A voice called out.
"Then you will have to beat us, you freaks!" A second one joined in.
"And think twice for we are not weak!" The last challenge.
"Well, Well, Well if it isn't the Boo Brothers." Candice called out.
"We know nothing about those brothers you blonde harlot."
"But continue to insult us and the earth will be scarlet."
"Why you-."
"Then who isss it that we are ssspeaking to?"
A monk of orange and gold appears before them. "Sanga is the name." The wind picked up across the field as another appeared in green and gold.
"Kazejin, for there is fame." The crash of water drew everyone's attention to the last monk who wore blue and gold.
"Suijin is in play so prepare to drown in pain."
"Rhymes hurt."
"It is alright my big hair monkey." Kazejin dodged the nazi commander that was chucked his way.
"Careful brother, he seems to be a bit grumpy."
"Enough!" Candice tossed a ball of light at the two brothers who gave her a sideways glance. As the orb approached them Sanga jumped in front of the two with both his arms reaching out and absorbed the electricity.
"I believe the fun is over dear brothers." The two nodded and jumped away with the third close behind with their voices shouting to the heavens as a bright light engulfed them.
"Elements of Thunder, Water, and Wind. We Sanga, Suijin, Kazejin begin. We meld our powers in eternal light. We will show you fools our unstoppable might. We are pain beyond description. We'll mark the graves with your inscription. We are the Gate Guardian!" The Guardian stood before the group and let out a loud bellow. It held both its hands together as an orb of light grew between them.
"Candiccce with me. The ressst of you prepare for a counter attack." Quetz grabbed his shield and filled it with energy along with Candice. The Guardian released the ball of energy towards the duo. As the orb came closer the shield gave off sparks of electricity as it reached its limit. "Now!" Both shield and sphere clashed causing those around to cover their eyes from the brightness.
As the Guardian regained its sight an artillery shell slammed into him causing it to stumble back slightly. "More!" BF called out to Dave.
"Keep your hairs on big guy." He tossed him another shell with his threads towards the big guy as he swung with a Tiger turret like a baseball bat. He looked over at the Guardian and saw it had no effect on it he turned back towards his partner. "Alright speed round. Go!" Dave began tossing two then three shells at him at a rapid pace.
The Guardian raised its arms to cover itself as the onslaught continued to increase. With a loud rumble it lifted its foot and slammed it back down causing a torrent of water to burst out of the ground in front of it to act as a shield taking the artillery shells in its place. "Now Tatsssumi!" The boy uncloaked as he sliced off the Guardian's left leg causing it to fall over but caught itself. It stayed on its hands and knee until Suijin started to disappear to the point where the Guardian's legs didn't exist leaving the other two alone.
The Guardian let out another rumble as it took in a large breath of air and blew at Dave and BF. Seeing this BF grabbed Dave and slammed the turret into the ground using it as a shield against the strong wind. As that was happening the Guardian raised an arm towards Candice and Quetz unleashed a constant beam of energy at the two. Tatsumi watched as the other arm was aiming at him until a pillar of ice pierced the remaining parts of the Guardian causing its attacks to seize.
"Ara, Ara what do we have here?" A feminine voice called out behind Candice as a gloved hand grabbed her arm. "So this is what the Americans can muster up." The gip on Candice's arm tightened causing frost to appear but Candice ignored it and continued to glare at the blue haired general. "A monkey." She said as she looked at BF. "A snake." Quetz kept a neutral expression. "A puppet." Dave also kept a neutral expression. "And I know you're out there in the shadows!" She yelled out into the night and looked back down at Candice. "Even a whore to complete the collection."
"DonnerSchlag!" A large bolt of lightning struck down on the two causing the group to retreat from the scene. As the dust settled only Candice remained in the small crater steam and sparks coming off of her as she glared where Esdeath once stood her fists still where it made contact with the blue haired general.
"My what straighten you have. I didn't think a dog such as yourself would have such a bite." Candice could feel her eyebrow twitch at the insult as she felt the cold air that spilled from Esdeath's lips against her ear. "Aww come now none of that. You should be grateful for the compliment. It's hard to get such praise from me, you know." She could feel Esdeath's own hands on her shoulders leaving goosebumps on her skin. "Such a nice body for a doe and for a mate wouldn't you agree."
"Entladen." A blue light was all Esdeath could see. She tried to move but her limbs couldn't respond to her. As the light died down something large smacked her body across the field. She bounced several times and was snared into some metal threads. "This seems… familiar." Esdeath thought to herself as Quetz appeared on her right with his club sparking while BF came running at her left holding onto a barrel of a Tiger King with it still attached to the main body. "Not bad." She thought with a grin as both slabs of metal clashed against her body causing her to groan but was not heard as the ringing of metal was heard all around. She slumped in the metal wiring as both pieces of metal were pulled back allowing both combatants to approach the third as she licked her lips. "All that for a bit of blood. Sigh Quite a shame. Beißen Frost." She spat a wad of blood which was blocked by Quetz's club.
As he pulled it down he noticed frost danced across the metal surface at a rapid pace causing him to release the weapon as it was consumed by ice. As the weapon made contact with the ground it shattered upon impact. Seeing his club destroyed he looked back at Esdeath only to see herself thrashing in the wires causing them to cut into her flesh allowing her blood to cover them which had the same results as what happened to his club. The wires started to strain causing Quetz to think of a plan. "Dave, and BF give sssupport and do not engage unlesss it's necesssary. Candissse, we need to buy them sssome time and Van we need you to pull usss all out when it'sss too hot."
"Tck, you don't need to tell us twice." Candice spoke up as she pulled her glove back while Dave retracted his wires back as BF picked him up and retreated back towards the other side of the bridge. Both combatants watched the third as she got to her feet as Quetz spoke to her.
"What'sss Hitler'sss plan? What'sss hisss endgame General?"
"Aww. Then that'll ruin the surprise my little pet." Esdeath answered.
"Pet?" He questioned as her head tilted to the right as she watched the two of them. "I'm afraid that isss imposssible, General." He said as wings appeared on his back.
"Oh and why's that?" She said as she looked at Candice seeing that she also had wings but less colorful.
"Caussse God'sss ssslay monstersss." He disappeared and reappeared in front of her with his right fists pulled back and punched her only for her to block it by raising both arms, both locked in a power struggle.
"Then who do you think I am?" Was her reply as she moved her face closer to the serpent only to shove him back and catch Candice's leg who appeared above the two and went in for a drop kick. Esdeath swung Candice down into the ground face first. As Candice got back on her hands and knees Esdeath crouched in front of her. "It's nice to see another female with such strength." She grabbed the blonde's face forcing Candice to look at her. "Can't let someone like you take Tatsumi away from me now do we, though I'm sure the Reich wouldn't mind needing you for your abilities."
"In their dreams bitch."
"Oh how cute." Esdeath replied with a blush on her face. "I love it when you fools believe you have a choice."
"Do I?" A voice called out catching her off guard but quickly composed herself and smiled moving her head towards him.
"I knew this was going to be quite entertaining." She slammed Candice's head into the ground and faced Tatsumi while blushing. "I knew you'd come back to me my love. I'm quite relieved that these Americans have yet to turn you on me." As she approached him she noticed that he took a step back causing her to look at him in confusion then started to smile with no happiness to it. "I see."
"Look Esdeath-." Tatsumi explained but was met with fists to the side of his face causing him to be launched across the field rolling and tumbling. As he regained his footing a cold hand clamped down on the back of his head and shoved his face down into the ground.
"You just had to ruin everything again, don't you my love." She growled at him as she lifted up by the back of his head. "We come to this world." She slammed him back into the ground. "To start a new life." Pulls him up. "And instead of killing you as I had in mind instead I trained you to be my equal, and do you know what I get in the end Tatsumi." The boy refused to answer as blood dripped from his nose. "A boy that has a heart that bleeds so easily at every sob story he hears. A boy that doesn't look the other way or mind his own business. A boy!" The ground cracked as she slammed his head down again. She huffed for a moment and began to speak. "A boy who doesn't listen to his mistress that only wants love and affection from him who constantly gives it to him." She released him and crouched down beside him. "Which one will it be Tatsumi? Are you going to be a good boy for me or be a pet?" She pulled him up by his hair to look him in the eyes for an answer which caused her to blush. "Aww. Love you too sweetie." She grabbed his chin while licking her lips.
Before she can claim him a tiger king torrent slammed into the side of her body launching her across the field. Tatsumi got up on his knees as Quetz approached him. "Help with the evaluation of the prisssonersss while Van and I ssstall her." The boy nodded and left towards the bridge with the others.
"Weissschnabel." Esdeath watched as the serpent dodged the pieces of ice without a problem. "Reflektierender Spiegel." Two chunks of ice appeared on both sides of Esdeath and took Esdeath's form. "Weissschnabel." Both copies and the original spoke in sink causing him to dodge multiple pieces of ice as Esdeath threw both copies of herself at him at great speed. Quetz, seeing this, grabbed his shield and slammed the first out of the way as the second one latched on his right arm. "Beißen Frost." He looked to see the original coming towards him with blood dripping from her mouth. He raised his shield only to find his other arm was held by the first copy. Before he could yank his arm back the original grabbed both sides of his head and all he could see was red across his vision.
The three of them released Quetz as he tried to rub out the blood and frost from his eyes but it refused to budge, this caused the snake to hiss at her. "I don't need my eyesss to sssee the likesss of you." He thrust his hand to the side causing a bolt of lightning to appear in his grasp and lunged at the original. Blades of ice and light clash into one another causing steam to appear after each strike. He dodged a strike from his left-side and released a blast of lightning from his maw at the other copy as he blocked the original once again.
The fight continued onward towards the bridge as Quetz continued to parry both combatants as the third jumped over and lunged at him but was blasted away by another lightning attack causing the copy to roll halfway across the bridge. "Weißer Hagelsprung." Multiple pieces of ice chunks crashed into the bridge causing it to wobble and begin to crack and fall into the sea. Quetz landed on a chunk of debris (yes that's how it's spelled) as the other three landed on the water's surface causing it to freeze over before the piece could sink below the waves. The original lunged at him causing him to dodge and for the piece of debris to be destroyed by her attack but she kept up her pursuit as the other two stalked them from the opposite sides of the battle. The battle moved across the ice as he parried another attack only for his leg to be pierced by a piece of ice causing him to fall over and to be encased in ice.
"That was quite a fight my friend. I'm sure if you bend the knee to my Führer I can guarantee that no harm will come to your followers along with control of some territory. One word is all I need."
"Checkmate."
"What an interesting choice-."

"Do you mind explaining it to me again, MacArthur? Cause what I'm hearing is that we use nuclear weapons against the Axis powers, cause I will not be the one who brings this world to the Lord's doorstep." Kennedy glared at the American Caesar who gave him a blank look.
"MacArthur said that we would use them strategically against them. We will be using smaller bombs except for the general herself of course." The Marshal explained. "A B53 nicknamed Deathmark should be enough to wipe her out of the game Mr. President."
"Bomb of the Stars? Hmm, fitting that it'll take that much fire to put out a cold." Kennedy said as he looked over the documents and glanced back at the Marshall. "And Hitler? What's to stop him from pressing the button?" The American Caesar chuckled at the President and handed him documents.
"Not everything is sunshine and rainbows in the land of snakes Mr. President." He took a huff from his corncob pipe. "Once the Führer falls the others will follow suit and when the dust settles they'll be too exhausted to fight back." Kennedy looked over the documents one last time and back at the old man.
"I pray that this plan of yours works, MacArthur."
"MacArthur knows what he's doing."
"By the Lord's name I hope so."

The number stayed on a yellow three above the conference room as Kennedy reached for the red phone and looked over at one of the men in the room. "Bring in the football."
"Yes Mr. President." Generals and Admirals watched as a silver briefcase was placed in front of Kennedy.
Kennedy looked around the room at each man. "Don't pray for easy lives gentlemen. Pray to be stronger men for what is to come."

The red phone rings, breaking the two men's conversation. One of the men answered the phone. "Launch Control Sir, yes sir." He grabs a binder. "Code-word launch authority is confirmed." Both men pull the keys from around their necks. "Awaiting your go order." Both keys are in place as the lights turn red. Outside the hatch opened to the world as the missile saw daylight once again.

The men watched as the number moved to red two. Kennedy glared at MacArthur as he watched the fight at the strait on the monitors.

The number turns to a white one.
The two men turned their keys in one go allowing the glass case to open allowing the red button to be free as both men looked at each other. "Launch." A single word was spoken through the phone causing the operator to move his hand towards the button each second seemed like an hour to him as he hovered over it. He took a deep breath and allowed gravity to do the rest.

Tatsumi could only shield his eyes from the bright white light that engulfed his vision. As the light died down all he could see was a large mushroom cloud with multiple others following suit beyond it deeper into Russian territory. "I sat upon the heavens and saw the white horse running towards earth leaving not a sound as it left."

"My Führer, it seems General Esdeath has failed her mission." Hitler watched through the window as he looked at the sleeping city.
"No."
"N-No my Führer?"
"She has played her part, my friend. Now." He looked down at the red button. "We may proceed with the next act."

MacArthur and Kennedy watched as Germania launched a multitude of warheads. "What is he doing?! MacArthur you-."
"And MacArthur has kept his promise!" MacArthur said as he looked back at the screen and saw the warheads hitting Russian territory. "It seems that the backdoor to Europe is closed for us, Mr. President. For now we must focus on the Phoenix Empire."
"Yes, the Empire. From what we've collected their leader Azula from what we've gathered we know next to nothing. She also has her own group Yōso no jinpi shugi-sha." He said as he looked down at the documents. "Do you have a plan for her as well?"
MacArthur took a huff of his corncob pipe and huffed before answering. "MacArthur always has a plan. As of now the invasion force consists of twenty-five battleships, forty-two cruisers, four hundred destroyers to escort fourteen infantry divisions of five hundred thousand. From the air one thousand B-52 bombers softened up the beachheads of Kyushu and Kanto near Tokyo. While the invasion forces make their way on the beach MacArthur's task force will intercept anything supernatural or nuclear."
"And what makes you think that I'll allow around half a million men to die for this ridiculous plan, MacArthur? I will not agree with men throwing themselves in front of gunfire." MacArthur placed his sunglasses on and looked back at Kennedy. Both men watched each other until the American Caesar gave him a smile.
"You already have Mr. President. The fake task force that was supposed to be heading to Sokol to divert attention from the Bering Strait is now on its way to Kanto."
Kennedy stood up causing his chair to fall over onto the floor. "I order you to turn those ships around MacArthur."
"Action must be done Mr. President unless you forget." The tall man walked up to Kennedy causing the two secret service agents to get in between the two. "If you fail to uphold your duties in office, MacArthur will remove you until the government is brought back into order. Under the military until all threats foreign and domestic are eliminated."
"You are walking on thin ice, MacArthur. Thin ice!"
"So MacArthur is. So MacArthur is." He took another huff and puff while watching the President. "MacArthur wishes you a safe trip to Dallas to straighten your party and begin your reelection campaign." He turned his back to Kennedy with his things in hand and out the door leaving the president alone in the room with secret service.
"MacArthur sir." He looked down at the officer that walked beside him trying to keep up with him.
"What is it son MacArthur is on a schedule."
"The fighters you requested have been approved sir." He handed the tall man a folder labeled Lockheed CL-346 and looked inside.
"You did well son." He closed the folder and looked back down at him. "MacArthur expects a full mass production of these fighters by the end of the week, and prepare a meeting in Nevada alert no one of MacArthur's meeting to said destination."
"Yes sir." The officer stopped and walked away but not before looking back at the Cesar. "Which base, sir?" MacArthur continued walking away and said a single sentence.
"The land of dreams kid. Land of dreams."

"I don't know much about the second great war but only parts that my father has witnessed as a volunteer along with the old man across my street Ryan I think his name was. Anyway that was the past, this is now. We didn't know what to expect at first we thought it might be a new weapon, a new type of truck, or an aircraft. We got nothing but a weird bird-like creature or plague doctor that was far from what all the men in the barracks said or saw. Even Sergeant Husk threw his alcohol away like it was water after seeing it. The general told us to have our gear and weapons ready. But I've yet to see any troop transports as of yet."

"No warning whatsoever, just plop down in the middle of the enemy camp. Funny right, wrong. That bird thing just envelope us in a black sphere and just dropped us there. It was funny to see those japs looking baffled at our presence until one of them charged at us with a spoon causing us to open fire at everyone at the camp. Poor bastard didn't have a chance, though I give him credit for being bold. After a good hour of fighting from door to door Midway is ours again. Equipment, fuel, and supplies started to appear on the island like how we did by that thing.
Apparently MacArthur was planning an invasion on those yellow monkeys, but it seemed that the president was not in on the plan or informed about it. Some of the men were a bit if-ey on the idea of MacArthur going on his own, but we're relaxed when it was announced that he'll be present during the invasion-."

"H-(Burp)-Hey D-Digger stop writing in your g-girly book and hurry up w-were about to leave already."
"Until you stop saying alcohol is good for your mutton chop look Husk. And the name's Diggory."
"Pshh all the things I do for ya kids a-and I still don't get any respect from y'all. And for the name request no." He reached for his helmet and looked back at the private. "I mean it when I say hurry up. Don't want to miss out on the tradition now do we?" He left with the young man hot on his heels.
"Whatever you say grunkle Husk." The older man said nothing as they approached the runway. They watched as B-52 bombers took off leaving black trails of smoke in their wake.
Husk wrapped an arm around the private. "Y-You see that kid w-with birds like those i-in this war and it'll be over in a month at most." He took a swing of his bottle and walked across the runway as another B-52 started its run. Seeing this Diggory rushed towards the drunk and yanked him towards the other end of the runway causing some of Husks beer to spill. "J-Jesus kid watch w-where you're tugging just because it's cheap booze doesn't mean you can spill it."
"And drinking on an active runway is?"
"Hehehe, got nine lives, kid."
"That makes no sense only cats do."

"Hitler's war has pushed this world to the brink of extinction." The storm continued to rock the chopper. "And time is not on our side. If it wasn't for those monsters we would be dead. And those monsters reminded us of who we really are. We will fight but not Hitler at least not yet but they knew we were coming." Some of the boys kept throwing up in the CH-47F Chinook as the coastline got closer. "I don't blame them. I'd do the same." "Alright you chick's and dicks, listen up!" He took another swing of his bottle as they heard the B-52s continue to drop bombs ahead of them as well as darkening the sky's above to the point that it looked midnight and the cockpit was the only light in the transport.
"Clear the ramp! Thirty seconds! Godspeed be with you all!" Our pilot called out from behind the closed door. "Chicken shit."
"Move fast and clear those murder holes. I want to see plenty of beach between men. Five men is a juicy opportunity. One man is a waste of ammo."
"Fifteen seconds!"
"Keep the sand out of your weapons. Keep those actions clear. And I'll see you on the beach." I placed my night vision goggles in place as did they.
"Sergeant Husk, are we gonna die?" The private called out. "Don't make any promises you can't keep Husk."
"Five seconds!"
"Two-thirds kid." "Best pep talk you'll get from me, kid."
"Jesus…" (Buzz sound effect) The back door dropped open into the darkness as a green light illuminated our surroundings.
"Go, go, go!" The kids rushed out as I took one more swing and followed them to the gates of hell.
Kanto Coast Defense HQ
(Many) Minister(s) Tojo Hideki
The Japanese Defense HQ sat on one of the many cliff sides looking down at the battlefield hidden well enough from the American reconnaissance aircraft. The Ministry of War Tojo was in charge of the defense force and watched as the Americans began to pile up on the beachfront. "Shall we commence firing."
"Wait." He continued watching more Americans dogpile.
"The men want to fire." Yet the old man refused to answer. The officer picked up the phone. "Hold your fire." The defense force continued to watch as the entire beach head was filled with men.
"They'll gain a foothold if we don't fire now!"
"Wait a bit more. The battle hasn't started yet." He raised his binoculars to see the enemy beginning to move away from the beach. "Commence firing!" The officer picked up the phone.
"Fire!"
Sergeant. Husk
"I don't know what came first, the sounds of thunder above us or the enemy's artillery? Either way it was still hell on earth. Lost four when the shit hit the fan. Not sure if I should be happy that I don't owe any money either way I'm sure it'll get me a spot at the round table with Satan. Maybe he'll force me to babysit his kid who knows hahaha. I ducked down as low as I could. I'm sure the others know to follow suit. The loud explosions continued and I couldn't tell who was firing more. I looked back at my men and saw many things that made me think I was drinking too much. Maybe it was Jap fighters kamikazing in the landing craft, some of the amphibious ones just exploding at random, or maybe it was the three colorful samurai cutting, crushing, and freezing my men with different elements. Wish I was definitely drunk as fuck."

Candice Catnipp
Candice watched as the pilots gathered near their new toys. "Hey guys get a load of this! Not only do we get new toys, but also a morale booster for ourselves." A pilot called out from the front of the group causing her to smile at the attention.
"Awww stop it, you're making me blush~."
"I can make you do more than blush doll." Her iris glowed in a bright yellow.
"Oh really." Walked towards them with a sway in her hip. "Then perhaps some one on one time is needed." She wrapped her arms around his neck as he moved his up her back. "But I have some rules."
"Oh believe me doll I'm a rule breaker." He closed his eyes and leaned in for a kiss as he held the back of her head.
"Yes you are sugar~." Others watched on with amusement until they saw their friend light up like a Christmas tree and collapsed to the floor smoking and growing in agony. "There's one rule that everyone must follow if they want a piece of me." She pressed her heel against balls. "Never." (Slam.) "Touch!" (Slam.) "My!" (Slam.) "Hair!" (Slam.) The man wheezed and groaned in pain as he glared with tears in his eyes.
"What's the matter with you!"
"Who me? Well let's see." She tapped her chin in thought and started to grin with sparks jumping from her eyes. "I'm just some doll, a damsel that was an easy catch for you. Well tough luck boys. I'm my own person."
"All you are is just a pair of legs and titts that needs to be put into her place!" A random pilot called out from the group. Candice raised an eyebrow and threw her head back in a fit of laughter.
She looked back at the men with her hip cocked to the side and her arms crossed under her chest. "Then what are you waiting for, boys?" Her arms pushed her boobs up causing the men to think with their dicks than their heads. The leader finally got back on his legs and glared at her.
"You heard her boys rough her up."
"And how are you going to do that son?" A voice called out behind him.
"None of your business…" Every ounce of anger dissipated from the young pilot as his reflection looked back at him from a pair of black sunglasses with puffs of smoke breaking their lock.
"Speak up son, MacArthur couldn't hear you or the sea."
"N-Nothing sir."
"Hmmm. Just as MacArthur thought." He looked at Candice. "Agent Thunder B. Follow me the rest of you. MacArthur expects results gentleman. Now go." The pilots scurried away from MacArthur and Candice leaving the two alone. The two stared at one another. "MacArthur told you not to wear that ridiculous outfit young lady."
"Tch, look who's talking. I mean who talks in third person? Second, you're not my dad."
"If MacArthur knew him you'd still be with MacArthur regardless."
"Whatever old man, what are you gonna do nuke me? Oh, wait you almost did. Are you gonna do it again this time?"
"It'll be the Japanese this time unfortunately. MacArthur is on thin ice as it is with the president. It'll be on your shoulders and those pilots to stop those nukes from launching do you understand."
"Whatever old man, when do we leave?"
"Right now actually." A third voice spoke up.
"Agent Pinky. Have you done what MacArthur has told you to do?" Mine smiled up at the General with excitement in her eyes.
"Yes sir. You and Lockheed have some interesting imagination when it comes to warfare, fufufu." He showed no emotion to her news. "Well you're no fun. Anyway, your few dozen CL-346s and AH-56 Cheyennes are ready for the first assault. Anything else?"
"That'll be all Agent Pinky." He gave her a hand shake before she left with Agent Van.
Agent Pinky (Mine)
Location: Unknown
Mine looked down at the folded paper in the palm of her hand that read. Begin Operation Iron Phoenix.

USS Enterprise
Candice Catnipp
Candice stood at the edge of the Enterprise as she listened to the comms link. "Alright this is as far as we can go without espousing ourselves to the Japanese. Remember to assist the invasion force in any way possible, and secure any nuclear sites. Agent Thunder will provide backup if things get out of hand. Godspeed gentlemen. Godspeed to us all." Each jet started their engines as they began to vertically take-off.
"Agent Thunder, where's your bird?" The voice on the comms link spoke up.
"I'm giving you a head start captain."
"I better see your ass in the air now Thunder." I reached for a pair of goggles and secured them on.
"Fine, don't say I didn't warn you." Sparks and arcs of electricity jumped over my body traveling to my back taking the shape of a pair of wings. I bolted across whatever distance was left of the Enterprise and skimmed along the water's surface. I've always felt free whenever the air combs through my hair regardless if I was in a war zone or not it still brought me joy.
"Agent Thunder I still have no eyes on you."
"Coming from below Captain."
"Stop messing around Thunder- (Tap Tap Tap)." The captain looked over to his right and saw Candice smirking at him as she reached for her comm piece.
"Think your new toys can keep up cap?"
"Focus on the mission."
"No promises." With a flap of her wings the men were left in the dust. "I'll scout ahead and assist until you catch u- (Boom)."
"See you around Tweety bird." She watched as the rest of the airmen flew past her.
"Why you little."
Kanto, Phoenix Empire
Sergeant. Husk
Original time
"Bastard!" I yelled out as loud as I could, which caused the blue one to stop freezing some of the guys and looked at me. I raised my flamethrower at it and pulled the trigger. It summoned a wall of ice to block the onslaught of fire which in turn caused me to stop. The wall continued on to my right which caused me to throw the flames towards that direction unaware that it jumped over the wall of ice.
It's funny in a way that I can see my life flash before my eyes, but I still felt the same, just as cold as I watched my childhood pass by within seconds. Success and failures played like a broken record. Yet I didn't care to shed a tear to it all as I watched death's cold blue dagger reach out towards me. I did what any sane man would do… I closed my eyes and waited. Instead of death's cold touch it was a wet and warm substance that touched my face. I opened my eyes and I regretted it.
Private. Diggory
I was never one to step into the spotlight. I was just a guy that was just there, nothing more really. A dad that had no respect for me, a mother long gone, friends, never had them until I stumbled upon Sergeant. Husk. He's an interesting man. Like you may think you know him the next he throws that out the window completely leaving you at step one behind.
But that still didn't explain why I jumped in front of him to save his life. All we did was drink and play pranks on the others. I mean sure he got me into trouble but I still stay by him cause I see him as a friend. I'm not sure if he sees me as a friend but I do. So when I took his place at the end of the rope I felt happy in a sense to know that Husk didn't have to die at that moment. Death felt so nice and a little cold.
Sergeant. Husk
I wished it was raining again so I couldn't feel my tears. "D-Dig." It was the only word that could spill from my lips as his body was tossed aside like an empty bottle of alcohol. "Dig!" I watched as his body embraced the sand with a bloody smile. The sound of thunder broke me from my gaze and back to this blue samurai or should I say water samurai.
"He seems like a good man." Ah so it's a she if it wasn't life or death I'd find it amusing good thing that Diggory's already dead. "You'll join him soon enough."
"Lady's first bitch."
Original POV
Husk rushed at the female samurai putting the flamethrower on full throttle ignoring his own safety. Seeing this the samurai summoned a shield of ice to defend herself from the onslaught of the flames. Steam blocked her field of vision as the flames disappeared along with their owner.
She watched the fog that covered the battlefield for any sign of Husk but it was futile as shadows of troops ran around her along with the occasional explosion of an artillery shell. A raised arm blocked the dirt that fell upon her until something fell down with the pieces of earth and rock. At first she thought it was just a stone until she caught the design of it.
The wall of white surrounded her as the explosion occurred before her. Soon another hit the ice as quickly. Looking through the ice Husk stood there with another grenade and threw it like a baseball player causing more damage to the dome. "You know I thought you Japs were something else and it seems like I was right!" Another was thrown at her causing a large crack. "Nothing but snakes!" He threw a fast one at the barrier. "Come on! Where's your honor?!" The last one broke through the ice causing her to be knocked over and for him to run through it and tackled her.
He wrapped his hands around her neck as she clawed at his face which didn't faze him as she peeled back some of his skin with her nails. "Heard you like some water." The coldness of his voice brought her back from her panicking state. "Take a good gulp for me, it's on the house." He watched as her face was consumed by the muddy waters with a few bubbles rising until a blast of mud hit his face causing him to release his hold on her.
She pulled herself from the mud gasping for air while wiping it from her face as Husk was distracted. Collecting herself as she wiped the last of the mud from her face she stood up and walked towards Husk with a dagger of ice. She was upon him with the ice poised above her with her opponent on all fours facing away from her.
Husk hung his head low, spitting out another wad of mud from his mouth while collecting his bearings. He opened his eyes looking at a bottle of booze and reached out for it.
"You Americans are all the same as well." She lunged at him for the killing blow until her legs were swept underneath her. She stood on her knees as Husk watched with little care as he drank from the bottle. This caused her anger to boil. "Just pigs that take until there's nothing left!" The blade pierced the right-side of his ribs causing him to release the bottle from his lips allowing the alcohol to soil his clothing while he spat the rest in her face. "Ahh, you bastaaahh!" Her swearing was silenced as the glass bottle met the right-side of her face. She pulls her blade back to strike again only to find her arm locked in with his. She opened her left eye and glared at him to see a blank face with no emotion. "Who do you think you are!?"
"You already know." He held up a single burning playing card. The card had an image of the emperor's head with a black ace behind him. She watched as the flames danced along the edges of said card as Husk flicked it towards her.
She raised her other arm to summon water to wash away the card's flames but was seized by Husk as he locked his fingers with her almost in a dance position with death as the fire explored their body's.
Off in the distance two other samurai watched as their comrade was burned alive. One green as the earth with moss growing on the armor and the other was gray as metal completely clean as new. "Shame that Katara was the first to die out of the rest of us."
"That's enough sister we have an objective to do."
"Tch, what I may not have liked her but she was a close friend and she didn't deserve to die like that!" She pointed in the direction of the burnt corpses.
"Sigh. Toph stop it now's not the time to fight each other." She raised an arm to stop the oncoming bombardment. The youngest glared at her sister.
"This isn't over Lin." A hole opened up in the ground below her and jumped in leaving the elder on the surface as the next wave of the invasion force began.
Lin turned her wrist which caused the shells and rockets to face the ships and helicopters. Before she could throw them back another samurai was tossed into her causing the ammunition to fall and explode on impact. Collecting her bearings Lin marched over to the other samurai and grabbed him from the front of his armor. "What's the big idea Aang! You're supposed to be clearing the skies of enemy aircraft!"
"Well you s-."
"Well, well, well what do we have here?" A third voice called out. Lin glared at Candice who hovered above them with a bow of lightning pulled back. "Two of the four remaining Elements. I'd tell you to surrender but let's cut to the chase where I step over your corpses ok." Before they could answer the bolt was released heading towards its target. As the dust cleared the two opponents disappeared. "Come out, come out wherever you are?"
The two elemental samurai watched from a distance as Candice looked for them. Aang looked over at Lin. "What do we do?"
"We have to wear her out like any electronics. So move fast and quickly but keep on your toes." Aang gave her a playful look which earned him a glare.
Candice watched as more men got on the beach slowly burning out fox holes and kill boxes after losing interests with the two elements. "Damn they're dug in really well like gum in a girl's hair." She continued to watch on unaware of the M48 that was launched at her from behind. "Oh now that's just dirty." Her body vanished from view letting the armored vehicle hit the earth where she once stood.
"Where'd she go?"
"I don't kn-aaahhh!" Lin's body lit up as electricity coursed through her with Candice pressing her hand against her back. Aang could watch as Lin fell to the ground knocked out.
"I can play dirty too." He jumped back as Candice's fists hit the ground where he was. The young man sent a blast of wind which cut some pieces of her clothing and hair. She glared at him. "You! You basta-!" A pillar of rock slammed into her abdomen knocking the wind out of her as she was launched off in the distance into one the districts of Tokyo.
"Thanks for the assistance Toph."
"Yeah, yeah save your praise for later we got a bird to cook."
"Right."
Kanagawa District, Phoenix Empire
Original POV
"Banz-!"
"Enough with the yelling!" Candice had enough of these buffoons charging at her as they're being slaughtered by both her and the infantry. She sent a pulse of electricity towards them causing paralysis among the enemy troops. "Bullets, blades, fire, even fists didn't stop these savages. They're relentless even though this city's on fire and in ruins." She couldn't believe those bastards got in on a cheap shot. "Alright boys! Slow and steady to the palace, we don't want them to overwhelm us do we?"
"No sir!" The men yelled out.
"Good you have your orders, and remember to shoot all enemy combatants regardless of age." The men moved onward as the M48 drove over the paralyzed bodies, and rubble while the infantry hid behind killing those that the tank missed. A man kicked down a door to a building and moved out of the way allowing another holding a flamethrower in and pulled the trigger. She watched as more Japs jumped out through some of the lower windows covered in flames. She walked along until a slab of earth hit her across the face sending her down the block away from the troops.
"Agent Thunder-!" Before the trooper could speak a spear of metal pierced his body. The others watched as the man slid down the pole unaware of the pins being pulled from their grenades. A few saw pins and started to remove the explosives from their person but it was too late. The M48 continued onward until it started to sink into the ground as if it was a quicksand until only the barrel was seen.
Candice groaned in pain as she laid upon the rubble as a small brown cat sat on her chest with blood dripping off its face watching her. "Seems like you Americans are demons after all." She looked behind the cat to see the three elements standing across the street from her.
"You know some of those guys were my drinking buddies." Lin glared at her.
"Tch, like you would know what it's like to have friends."
Candice grabbed the cat by the back of its head as she watched its slit eyes. "What's that supposed to mean?" Toph smiled at her.
"Oh you know what we mean. From the way you sound and look I'd say you have daddy issues right?"
"And you sir." She stood back up on her feet. "Look like a cat person!" Candice chucked the cat at the blind woman.
The cat latched on Toph's face, claws digging into her flesh causing her to scream in pain as she tried to yank it off. Both friends watched on as the cat grew a set of horns on its head. Soon its fur grew wild and untamed like that of any beast. It's size continued to expand until it was too much for her. The last two Elements and Candice watched on as the beast hunched over Toph at a height of ten feet tall. The leathery wings blocked out Toph's body from the group but sounds of muscles being ripped apart drowned out the noises around them.
"T-Toph." Aang called out to his friend. The monster turned towards the Elements with a piece of Toph's ribcage in its jaws. Its glowing red eyes pierced his body with cold fear as he watched it swallow the flesh of his friend. Both traits of dog and horse dominated its face, while its serpent tongue licked off the blood that stained its maw. The beast's clawed hand held Toph's mangled body as it rose to its hind legs. Air filled its lungs until it couldn't hold anymore and released it.
The monster had one of the most saddening and terrifying screams that had ever been heard – sounding both like a tortured human being and a vengeful predator. The scream caused the two teammates to be paralyzed in fear.
The Jersey Devil threw Toph's corpse at Lin causing her to be knocked into the burning building behind them with the monster giving chase like a drooling dog. "Lin!" Aang prepared to toss the monster away with a gust of wind but was struck by a bolt of lightning.
"Now, let the little kid have some fun baldy." He threw a glare at the blonde. "Awww I thought we were best friends." Her only answer was a blast of air to the face. Candice felt her hair and glared at Aang. "You did not just ruin my beautiful hair!"
"Please like you had any to begin with." He dodged a bolt of lightning.
"Shut up and die!"
Meanwhile
Lin shoved the corpse of her former friend off herself as she looked around the burning building for any signs of the beast, but only saw the flames licking the bones of the building. A low rumble drew her attention as it got closer. A few moments she listened to the loud steps of the monster, realizing that it was a floor above her. She slowly walked out of the burning room while holding in every cough so she wouldn't draw the creature's attention. She made it down the hall and found a young woman with her legs trapped under some rubble. Noticing Lin, the woman started to call out for her.
"P-Please! Help! Don't leave me!"
"Shhh! Keep it down, you'll attract the monster." But the woman sobbed too much to listen to her until the roof above them collapsed on them. As the dust settled Lin saw the creature above the dead woman with a hoof dead center on her chest. Its red cat-like eyes watched her every movement like a cat stalking its prey as its tongue licked over its own jagged muzzle leaving globs of spit in its wake.
She raised her fists and took a stance as she glared at the abomination before and smirked. "You're no monster. Just a… mistake." The beast used its wings to propel itself across the room barreling towards Lin as she held her stance.
She jabbed her open palm at the charging monster causing several chunks of metal from their surroundings to wrap around its jaw. She closed her hand and yanked it back causing the metal to dig into the new jersey devils skin and was pulled along into the wall behind Lin.
It tossed and turned in the rubble as more debris fell around them. Seeing a chance Lin made her escape. She dashed up the stairs not caring if she was quiet or not. Ignoring the sight and smell of burned bodies as she made it up the second floor until a beastly hand burst out from under the floorboards grabbing her ankle causing her to fall on the floor face first.
Meanwhile
Tokyo Tower
Aang flew through the metal bars of the tower as a bolt of lightning struck another beam causing it to be blown apart. "Come on baldy you gotta do something besides dodging." Candice called out as she got ready for another pitch.
"No thanks." Dodges another. "Love living." He stopped behind one of the four main supports.
"Tch. You Japs never know when to give up do you? Oh well. At least you know how to play baseball." The wind elemental looked around the corner to see Candice facing her back towards him slowly stretching.
"Sweet Emperor." Her white gloved hand dragged up along her white boots and onto smooth skin leaving small arks of electricity in its wake. His eyes followed her hands as they danced across the white leather that clung to her skin until they reached her hip and thigh. Palms spread out showing off her youthful fertile appearance. Aang continued to watch Candice stretching with a burning face as she raised her leg allowing Aang to witness her flexibility.
"Gotcha." A ball of light struck the support beam he was hiding behind causing the structure to wobble at the impact. "Good game, shame it's over now." A ball of light appeared in her hand. "Now say che-ack?!" The orb of light dissipated as a stream of mist spilled from her lips. She followed the strip of air and found it around the monk's fists.
"I'm sorry it has to be this way." With a yank Candice could feel her lungs tightened, unable to draw in a breath. She covered her lips only for the mist to slip through her fingers. "It's over please stop resisting." "It's over. It's over. It's over. It's overIt'soverIt'sover!"
"It's not!" A bright light engulfed them. "Ärgern Sie den Himmel, Thunderbird!"
:Outtro: (Nuclear by Mike Oldfield)
Tatsumi stood and walked towards the edge of a cliff as the sunsets before him. "Standing. On the edge. Of the crater." MacArthur sat in his office looking out of his window at the sunset as well. "Like the prophets once said." He looks over his shoulder at the sunglasses that sat on his desk then at the flag. "And the ashes are all cold now." Hitler looked down at the flashing red button. "No more bullets and the embers are dead." Candice walked along the coastline as large skeletal remains poked out of the open ocean's surface. "Whispers in the air tell the tales of the brothers gone." BF sat down on a roof of an abandoned building overlooking the destruction left behind. "Desolation, devastation." Tatsumi closed his eyes. "What a mess we made, when it all went wrong." Van sat at the meeting table alone with a cat and Brochan. "Watching from the edge of the circus." Hitler looked over at a crate that sat across from him. "For the games to begin." Mussolini looked at the picture frame one last time with a sad smile. "Gladiators draw their swords. Form their ranks for armageddon." The clock ticks past midnight. "I'm nuclear, I'm wild. I'm breaking up inside." Tatsumi could only watch as the mushroom cloud grew. "A heart of broken glass. Defiled. Deep inside." A pale white hand reached out for him. "The abandoned child." He opened his eyes and looked down at the white rose. "Standing on the edge of the underworld. Looking at the abyss." He looked up at the heavens. "And I'm hoping for some miracle to break out to escape from all this." The light starts to fade. "Whispers in the air tell the tale. Of a life that's gone." BF walks towards the woods. "Desolation, devastation." Candice watched as seagulls picked at the large chunks of flesh that have yet to rot away. "What a mess we made, when it all went wrong." MacArthur covered his eyes as another mushroom cloud rose off in the distance. "I'm nuclear, I'm wild." Mine sat alone in her workshop with a blank look. "I'm breaking up inside. A heart of broken glass." Candice let the tears fill her eyes until she couldn't hold it anymore. "Defiled. Deep inside. The abandoned child." Red lights flashed on and off in the meeting room as the three occupants sat near one another. "I'm nuclear, I'm wild. I'm breaking up inside." Dave hugged Mine from behind as the red light filled the room. "A heart of broken glass. Defiled. Deep inside. The abandoned child." Hitler looked over at the small white military hat and gave it a small smile as a lone tear fell down his face. "Deep inside. The abandoned child."
:Outro over:
Rejected intro:
We see our characters both friends and foes, sitting in a bar(like the one in Who Framed Roger Rabbit) waiting for tonight's entertainment. McArthur takes a huff and puff of his corn cob pipe with Van hunched over beside him as he watches Tatsumi walk towards the table that is in front of the stage. On one side of the room Hitler and the Count discuss something while Benito Mussolini takes another swing of his drink and Hirohito gives Tatsumi a sideways glance. At the main part of the bar BF and Louis Fox started a drinking contest.
As Tatsumi approached the table he saw Mine was already bored until she saw him pulling up a chair beside her and sat down. She gave him a warm smile which he returned to her. As he looked around the room again he saw Candice starting an argument with Quetz as Brochan ate some food at another table with Dave sitting beside him with his arms crossed over his chest. The lights dimmed a bit and a white spot light hit the red curtains as the music started to fill the room.
(Song:Bloody Mary by Lady Gaga)
"Money, Money, Money." The lights cut off covering the stage in darkness soon the spot light illuminated the stage and revealed Esdeath standing in front of the mic cresting it like a lover (outfit is like Holli Would's the second one that had two slits that showed off a lot of leg but blue). "Love is just a history that they may prove and when you're gone, I'll tell them my religion's you." She said as her eyes glowed blue and glared at Tatsumi and Mine. "When Punk-tius comes to kill the King upon his throne I'm ready for their stones." She looked over at Hitler's table to see him nodded and closed her eyes. "I'll dance, dance, dance." She pulled her hands against her chest cresting herself as her hands moved up, as her hips swayed to the rhythm. "With my hands, hands, hands. Above my head, head, head." She clasped her hands together and looked up to the ceiling as in a prayer. "Like Jesus said!" She closed her eyes and moved her hands against her body once more as a small poll of ice appeared behind her. "I'm gonna dance, dance, dance." She grabbed the poll and twirled around it with her right leg wrapped around it as she held onto it. "With my hands, hands, hands. Above my head, hands together."
Her momentum slowed down as she slid down the pole, and gave Tatsumi a lustful look and raised her right leg giving him a sideways smirk. She saw the boy blushing and Mine glaring at her. "Forgive him before he's dead because I won't cry for you. I won't crucify the things you do. I won't cry for you See, when you're gone, I'll still be Bloody Mary." The lights went out leaving the room in darkness. "Love!" The lights came on and revealed men in white uniforms with Esdeath's Teigu symbol on the armbands with their faces covered with military grade gas masks with weapons pointing at the room. The men opened fire at the room causing chaos.
"We are not just art for Michelangelo to carve." Tatsumi ducked behind a knocked over table gathering his thoughts. He looked around and saw BF being smacked across the face by Fox with a glass mug. "He can't rewrite the agro of my heart. "I'll wait on mountain tops in Paris cold. He looked back at Esdeath, her blue eyes watching him as the chaos continues around them. "Je ne veux pas mourir toute seule." She pleaded to him but saw him pulled away. Causing her eyes to glow blue. "I'll dance, dance, dance. With my hands, hands, hands." The boy watched Dave and Brochan massacring the troops in the room, coloring it in red. As they made it out of the room and into the hall he saw Van's wings wrapped around McArthur and pulled him into the shadows.
"Above my head, head, head like Jesus said!" They looked down the opposite direction and saw the three Axis leaders heading towards the back exit while the Count walked towards them. "I'm gonna dance, dance, dance. With my hands, hands, hands above my head, hands together. Forgive him before he's dead because." Quetz charged a beam in his mouth and released it at the vampire as Candice dragged Tatsumi towards the main entrance. "I won't cry for you. I won't crucify the things you do. I won't cry for you. See, when you're gone, I'll still be Bloody Mary." The two burst into a dark room with the doors closing behind them. "Love!" A large monitor turned on showing the world map along with hooded people standing before it.
"Gaga, Gaga, Gaga, Gaga." Blips started to appear on screen moving across the map with many others. "Gaga, Gaga, Gaga, Gaga."
We see Esdeath back on stage twirling around the ice poll her dress stained with red. "Dum dum da di da, dum dum da di da. Dittie da di da, dum dum da di da. Dum dum da di da, dum dum da di da. Dittie da di da, dum dum da di da."
Tatsumi could only watch as warnings flashed on screen. "I won't cry for you. I won't crucify the things you do, do, do. I won't cry for you." A parent of Bloody arms wrapped around his neck. He turned around and saw Esdeath grinning at him. "See, when you're gone, I'll still be Bloody Mary."
"Gaga, Gaga, Gaga, Gaga." Tatsumi couldn't hold in his tears as Esdeath tried to wipe them away with her blood soaked hands. "Gaga, Gaga, Gaga, Gaga." A Bloody finger traced over his lips. Their eyes lock once more as Esdeath's lips close in on his.
"Liberdade e amor."
