Everyone changes

Chapter 72

Third Reich's view:

We should die and instead me and Soviet will find our daughter. I hug the two of them. I am so happy! I never want to let go of these two. I also close my eyes to enjoy the situation even more. Soviet kisses my cheek before he hugs us even more.

"Endlich sind wir zusammen. (We're finally together.)", Soviet whispers. I then gently kiss his cheek and our daughter's cheek, who also kisses us on the cheek. Our hug is warm and snuggly, just the way I love it. Suddenly I hear another shot and we all look to Britain.

FRG holds her hands towards the ceiling with the gun. There's a bullet hole in the ceiling. "Federal Republic of Germany, what the hell are you thinking of?", Britain roars at her. He elbows her sideways so that she falls to the ground. Britain takes her weapon.

"If you weren't the only one with the genes of Deutsches Reich's family who would halfway listen to my commands, I could now threaten to kill you if you made your next mistake. You have no idea how incredibly lucky you are have.", comes from him. She looks down at herself and seems ashamed.

Soviet Union's view:

I see Reich staring at FRG. His look tells me he feels sorry and doesn't like the way Britain has treated her. I understand that Reich raised her and loves her as if he were her father, but after what she did to him, I don't quite get it. She tried to kill him! To be honest, I don't really feel sorry for her.

I still want her to get her just punishment. Nobody can hurt my Reich. "Soviet Union!", Britain draws my attention. "What do you want?", I ask him annoyed. Britain said: "I'll give you one last decision!

Either you will come to our side and we can either deal about Third Reich, Deutschland or German-Russian Reich or we will kill the four of you without any negotiations." Reich said: "He will not negotiate with you, especially if he only has one can negotiate from us. We're a family-"

"I offered it to him and not to you!", he scolds. "The four of us are a family, it's all or nobody here!", I explain to Britain. "As you wish!", he says, whereupon he orders, "shoot them!" Reich helps his brother into a sitting position. We sit down together.

Reich takes his brother's hand and he takes my hand too. GRR presses against my chest. Reich puts an arm around me. I see people surrounding us and taking care of their weapons. I feel Reich put his lips to mine briefly before he says: "I want to kiss you while we die."

"I'd too.", I quietly say. "Ich liebe dich mein Sowjet~ (I love you my Soviet~)", Reich says as he looks into my eyes. "Ich liebe dich auch mein Reich~ (I love you too, my Reich~)", I say before I close the gap between us with my lips. I close my eyes in fear because I don't want to see Reich die. The fear flows through me.

I just got my Reich back, after an endless long time and he will be taken from me again in a moment. Why is life so unfair! I love him! Why does he have to be taken from me again? Tears form in my eyes. I hold my daughter tight to me. I found her again and again she is taken from me.

Everyone I love is taken from me. Now I know again how it feels for Reich when he wants to go to his family. We've both been robbed of the ones we love the most over and over again. I just want to have a simple and beautiful life with Reich and our family. Why do we just have to be countryhumans?

Third Reich's view:

There it is, the end. I never thought it felt so awful. Maybe it seems that way to me because I haven't really enjoyed my life. When I was with Soviet, I first really enjoyed life. Even in the darkest times, we were there for each other.

I want to enjoy at least a few more years with my family, but I guess I can't seem to do that anymore. I open my eyes and see tears streaming down Soviet's eyes. It makes me all the sadder. I'm not afraid of death, I'm just afraid that one of us will die in agony.

Family is the most important thing, my father taught me that. He always said the most important thing for a German was his family and he was absolutely right about that and now that I've lost a family and gained a new one I know more than ever that he was right.

I'm just grabbing the courage to get up and not crouch down like that and also to help my family up. It's my end anyway, so I'll do it. I break my lips from Soviet and run my arm down to his hand, which I take. Soviet opens his eyes and looks at me. I smile at him and stand up slowly.

My brother and my daughter look at me with big eyes. My daughter slowly gets up, and then my brother and after a moment's hesitation, Soviet too. We are all standing now. Deutschland is stands with the help of me and Soviet. My daughter is clinging to me. Soviet kisses me again. I glance at the people who are about to pull the trigger.

I look Soviet in his eyes. He cries even more than before. I'm ready, but he's not. He's scared and panicking. I put my right hand on his cheek and wipe away his tears. Then I hear about ten shots. Soviet narrows his eyes in fear and I wait for us to either feel the pain or just drop dead.

I wait, but instead I hear: "Deutschland?!" After a short time comes from him: "R-Russland?... Russland! (R-Russia?... Russia!)" He lets go of us and I hear him run. I break away from Soviet's lips and see my brother jumping at Russia and he has so much momentum that they both go down and Deutschland kisses him. I giggle with relief at the sight.

Soviet then hugs me and pulls us as close to him as he can and he's pretty strong. He kisses me over and over again on the lips, on my cheeks or on my forehead. I'm slightly exhausted from the excitement. Soviet lets go of us and slowly lies down on the floor, relieved and exhausted.

Poor guy! Me and our daughter come to him and I lay on top of him and I gently kiss his neck. Our daughter hugs us and Soviet puts his arms around us. Soviet needs rest from all the fuss. I can understand him well, after all we almost died. Luckily only almost.
