(The speech that Alexandr makes is from Call of Duty Finest Hour)
/The group walked inside the Hermitage to see Chase and Aelita watching television with depressed looks, Aelita had red eyes from crying/
"Hey guys" said Miranda
/Chase and Aelita turned their heads/
"Hey" said Aelita
"You doing okay?" asked Ulrich
"We've been better" said Chase
"Well we got a surprise for you two" said Yumi
"What is it?" asked Aelita
/Jeremie handed her the two subdigital tickets, and when she saw them she went wide eyed/
"OHMYGODILOVEYOUJEREMIE!" said Aelita in one breath and a scream
/She tightly hugged Jeremie with a very happy face/
"And Chase, Jeremie set up a simulation for you" said Dylan
"Something to do with that question you asked a few hours ago?" asked Chase
"The battle of Okinawa" said Jennifer
/Chase went wide eyed/
"Really? Okinawa?" asked Chase
"Yep" said Dylan
/Chase had a huge grin on his face/
"OHMYGODTHANKYOU!" said Chase
/He joined Jeremie and Aelita in a hug/
"Alright that got a little weird" said Yumi
"So you don't have a problem with Okinawa Yumi?" asked Jeremie
"I'm a little steamed at the choice, but I'll digress" said Yumi
/Chase let go/
"Uh, I can settle for Stalingrad" said Chase
"Stalingrad? I thought you like the war against Japan?" asked Jennfier
"Yeah but my favorite battle of all time is definitely Stalingrad" said Chase
"Alright, can I come?" asked Alexandr
"Sure" said Chase
"Isn't Stalingrad a Soviet city?" asked Odd
"Yep, bloodiest battle in all of warfare was at Stalingrad" said Chase
"How many dead?" asked Yumi
"Over 850,000 on the Soviet side, and over 1,150,000 on the German side" said Chase
"My god" said Miranda
"Everyone except for Jeremie and Aelita are going" said Jennifer
"Alright, you two have fun at the concert" said Chase
"We will" said Jeremie and Aelita
/Jeremie and Aelita walked out the door/
"So, who wants to see Stalingrad?" asked Chase
"Me, I had a great grandfather there" said Alexandr
"What was he?" asked Miranda
"He was a sniper in several areas of the city, he even sniped in Pavlov's House" said Alexandr
"Really? What else did he do?" asked Jennifer
"Killed a hell of a lot of Germans" said Alexandr
"Lets go" said Rebecca
/The group walked out of the door/
"So how is it being a ghost?" asked Odd
"Eh, can't complain" said Chase
"What did you do? And what unit were you with?" asked Odd
"I was literally a myth, and the unit I was with is basically denied to exist all around the world" said Chase
"What unit?" asked Miranda
"Task Force 141" said Chase
"Anything special about them?" asked Ulrich
"We did things that nobody would consider morally right, we killed, we saved, but I hid in the shadows the entire time" said Chase
"And that's why you're called ghost?" asked Odd
"Yep" said Chase
"Huh, any war crimes?" asked Miranda
"Oh yeah, lots of incursions in Russia and China" said Chase
"What did you do there?" asked Miranda
"We are not at liberty to say" said Dylan
"That bad?" asked Alexandr
"Worse" said Chase
/They got to the manhole/
"So did you lead anyone?" asked Jennifer
"Yeah, I had a squad of thirteen men under my command" said Chase
"What happened to them?" asked Miranda
"All dead" said Chase
"All except me" said Dylan
"What happened?" asked Rebecca
"I really don't want to talk about it" said Chase
"Same here" said Dylan
/The group looked at the two of them with suspicion, then they climbed up the ladder and onto the bridge/
"So you got a nickname Dylan?" asked Rebecca
"Yeah, after a thing I did in Mexico I was called el lobo" said Dylan
"What?" asked Rebecca
"The wolf" said Dylan
"Why were you called the wolf?" asked Alexandr
"Oh I just killed a bunch of people and I blew up a few buildings, then I howled after it" said Dylan
"Uh, that's disturbing" said Miranda
"I know, be thankful you haven't had to live with him for over thirteen years" said Chase
/They walked into the elevator/
"You kill anyone famous?" asked Ulrich
"Actually I did, Muammar Gadhafi" said Chase
"Wait, Muammar Gadhafi?!" asked Yumi
"I thought you said you got a bunny from him a few months ago?" asked Miranda
"Yeah, and we were assigned to help the rebels attack his convoy" said Dylan
"And I shot him in the head, I was ordered to by one of the rebels" said Chase
"Huh, you are both full of surprises" said Rebecca
"You haven't even hit the tip of the iceberg" said Dylan
/They all walked to the ladder, and climbed down into the scanner room/
"So Jeremie's got it all set up right?" asked Yumi
"Yeah, we should be good to go" said Ulrich
/They all walked into the scanners/
/Chase landed with a hard thud on the Soviet side of the Volga river, he saw everyone else by the Soviet transport boats/
"Welcome to Stalingrad everyone!" said Chase
"How bad was this battle?" asked Yumi
/They heard a whistle and saw soldiers heading towards the boats along with fires and AA fire coming from the town/
"Bad" said Odd
"This isn't hell, this is ten times worse!" said Chase
"Hoorah" said Dylan
/They ran to a boat and sat down in it with several other Soviet soldiers, they started rowing, Chase tried to get up but Alexandr stopped him/
"I'll handle this" said Alexandr
/Alexandr stood up, and took out a Tokarev TT-33 pistol/
"Welcome to Stalingrad comrades, you are about to begin the greatest moment of your lives" said Alexandr
/The group looked at him with interest/
"The Germans have lost hundreds of tanks and planes, Hitler's brutalized hordes are marching towards Stalingrad over mountains of their own dead bodies!" said Alexandr
/Chase shouted 'URA!'/
"Our Bolshevik party, our nation, our great country, has given us the task to not let the enemy reach the Volga and to defend the city of Stalingrad!" said Alexandr
/The soldiers and the group shouted 'URA!'/
"Forward! Against the enemy! Up into the unremitting battle comrades! For Stalingrad! For our great country! NOT ONE STEP BACK!" shouted Alexandr
/An explosion next to the boat killed a few soldiers, and made three other soldiers jump out for their lives, Alexandr started shot them dead in the water/
"Cowards and traitors will be shot! Do not count days, do not count miles, count only the number of Germans you have killed!" shouted Alexandr
/The soldiers along with Chase and Dylan cheered 'URA!' while the rest of the group looked at him with wide eyes/
"Kill the Germans! This is your mothers prayer!" said Alexandr
/The soldiers cheered/
"Kill the Germans! This is the cry of your Russian earth!" shouted Alexandr
/The group looked at him with awe/
"Do not waver! Do not let up! KILL!" shouted Alexandr
/The boat docked/
"Death to the German invader!" said Alexandr
"Death to the German invader!" said all of the Soviet soldiers
/The soldiers climbed out with another 'URA!' while the group met up with Alexandr/
"Dude that was extreme!" said Odd
"Yeah sorry about all of that Ulrich, I was just trying to get them all riled up" said Alexandr
"No problem, its only asshole Nazis we're fighting" said Ulrich with a smile
"That was a nice speech Alex, even if it was very violent" said Miranda
/She kissed Alexandr/
"Lets move" said Rebecca
/They saw soldiers lining up for weapons/
"We got to get a gun" said Ulrich
"Good luck with that, their was a massive shortage of weapons on the Soviet side of Stalingrad" said Chase
"How bad?" asked Yumi
"About five men had to use one gun at times" said Dylan
"What?" asked Jennifer
"Like the first guy dies, then the second guy takes the gun, then when he dies the third guy gets it, and so on" said Chase
"Holy hell, how did they allow that?!" asked Yumi
"Simple, Stalin didn't care" said Alexandr
"That is awful" said Rebecca with disgust
"Lets just try and find a unit to group with" said Chase
/The group noticed a unit charging on the hill in front of them/
"Oh I forgot" said Chase
"What?" asked Odd
"If you turn around on that hill, the commissars will shoot you" said Alexandr
"Really? So we turn and we die?" asked Ulrich
"Sums it up" said Dylan
"Lets just get in the damn line" said Jennifer
/They went to the line, and somehow managed to get enough guns for all of them/
"What do I got?" asked Ulrich
"The Mosin rifle, very effective and very deadly" said Chase
"And me?" asked Odd
"SKS" said Dylan
"Lets move!" said Alexandr
/They starter running to find a group/
/Jeremie and Aelita were walking out of Kadic/
"So how did you get a simulation of Stalingrad?" asked Aelita
"I have my ways" said Jeremie
/He winked at her, causing her to blush/
"Stop it!" said Aelita playfully
"So how do you think you'll like the concert?" asked Jeremie
"I, Will, Love, It!" said Aelita
"And maybe you'll love the extra surprise" said Jeremie
/Aelita looked at him with a mixture of happiness and suspicion/
"What is it?" asked Aelita
"It won't be a surprise if I tell you" said Jeremie
/They laughed and met in a kiss as they got to the concert hall/
/The group was dodging MG fire from up the hill/
"How many Nazi's does it take to screw in a lightbulb?" asked Odd
"Not in the mood for jokes Odd!" said Miranda
"How many of them?!" asked Yumi
"Enough for us to kill!" said Alexandr
/They saw Chase down the hill signaling them to follow him, so they ran down to him/
"Any bright ideas?" asked Dylan
"Move through the sewers" said Chase
"NOT AGAIN!" said Yumi
"Its not like we're going to get covered in sewage again" said Chase
"What do you mean 'we'?" asked Dylan
"Just get in there!" said Chase
"What about the MG's?" asked Alexandr
"We'll flank them" said Dylan
/They walked into the sewer grate/
/Jeremie and Aelita sat down within a huge crowd/
"Alright, what's the surprise?" asked Aelita
"Look at the stage" said Jeremie
/She looked and saw the subdigitals walk on/
"Hello Amiens!" said the singer
/The entire crowd cheered/
"We're dedicating this song to one of our biggest fans, Aelita Stones" said the singer
/A big screen showed Jeremie and Aelita, she had very wide eyes and he had a huge grin/
"You didn't" said Aelita shocked
/Jeremie grinned, she pulled him in for a kiss causing Jeremie to get wide eyed and the entire hall of 5,000 to cheer for them/
/The group walked in the sewers/
"Ugh, you Russians have way too much Borsht in your diet!" said Odd
"You're going to make me sick Odd!" said Miranda
"Hey I thought the exact same thing" said Chase
"All of this liquid has to be processed vodka or something" said Dylan
/Miranda made a sick face/
"I'm gonna be sick!" said Miranda
"Okay! We'll stop!" said Yumi
"Yeah, lets just get rid of those MG's before they rip our men to shreds" said Alexandr
"Yeah we should hurry then" said Rebecca
"Double time it everyone!" said Dylan
/They all ran to a ladder at the end of a hall/
"Climb up and take cover, the Germans are at the other end" said Alexandr
"Woo Hoo! Time to kick some ass!" said Odd
"Odd, just please be quiet" said Ulrich
/They all climbed up and removed the manhole, they took cover behind some rubble and saw the Germans shooting an MG42/
"What do we do?" asked Yumi
"Watch me and I'll show you" said Chase
/Chase snuck up behind a German and tapped him on his shoulder, the German turned to look down the barrel of a PPSH, Chase pulled the trigger/
"Move up! Weapons free!" said Chase
/The group shot at the Germans until they all either fled or were killed, then they regrouped/
"What now?" asked Ulrich
"Now we watch the charge" said Alexandr
/Alexandr pointed to a group four stories below them, getting ready for a suicide charge/
"They're going to kill themselves?!" asked Jennifer
"Victory can not be achieved without sacrifice, we Russians know this better than anyone" said Alexandr
"What, the, hell, are, you talking about?!" asked Yumi
"They die for the glory of the motherland" said Alexandr
/A whistle sounded and the men below them ran into the open, red banners were flying everywhere as they started getting cut down by Germans/
"Oh my god" said Miranda
"I know, its a terrible thing to send men to certain death" said Ulrich
"We got to do something!" said Yumi
"We can't, its in their hands now" said Alexandr
"Why do we even care? This is a simulation and they are just cheap AI's" said Chase
"He's making a lot of since right now" said Odd
"Yeah maybe I shouldn't care if the AI's get killed" said Ulrich
"Lets try and find more Germans now" said Dylan
/They started running out of the building/
/Jeremie and Aelita were walking out of the concert hall/
"THANKYOUSOMUCH!" said Aelita in one breath
/She hugged him tightly/
"You're welcome princess, how did you like it?" said Jeremie
"That was amazing! Thank you!" said Aelita
"No problem" said Jeremie
/She kissed him again/
"You ready to head back to Kadic now?" asked Jeremie
"What about the Hermitage?" asked Aelita
"Well I thought you were a little lonely there with your brother, and I- uh" said Jeremie
/He blushed as Aelita looked at him with a grin/
"Sure, I'll stay the night" said Aelita
"Really?" said Jeremie
"Yep, but no happy endings!" said Aelita
/Jeremie blushed deeply/
"I'm only kidding!" said Aelita
/Jeremie grunted and kissed Aelita on the cheek/
"But seriously, nothing like that" said Aelita
"Got it" said Jeremie
/They kissed again/
/The group saw the German command center, then they saw the Nazi flag fall and the hammer and sickle flag replaced it/
"Well what now?" asked Dylan
"I had fun, but now I want to go home" said Chase
"Yeah Jeremie left us a devirtualization code" said Ulrich
/Ulrich typed it in on a datapad and the group exited the scanners/
"How did you like it?" asked Jennifer
"I loved it! Stalingrad is my favorite battle of all time" said Chase
"I can see why" said Miranda
"Thanks again guys" said Chase
"No problem" said Odd
/They all walked to the elevator/
/Jeremie and Aelita walked into Jeremie's room/
"So where am I sleeping?" asked Aelita
"You can have my bed" said Jeremie
"But-" said Aelita
"I would never forgive myself if I made you sleep on the floor" said Jeremie
"That's not what I had in mind" said Aelita
/She walked and laid down on Jeremie's bed, she patted a pillow/
"Ah, I see" said Jeremie with a grin
/He turned off his light and walked over to his bed, he laid down and started cuddling with Aelita/
"Love you princess" said Jeremie
"Love you too" said Aelita
/They both fell asleep within minutes/
