Saving Private Ryan

title of your story

Chapter 2

We all set off early as we walked into open space with some trees here and there in the French fields wondering our guns around to make sure no one shoots us before we do. Jackson who was in front of me turned around and gave me a smile that I've never seen on him before, I was so flattered because hardly anyone gives me smiles then he turned back around before the captain seen.

"Hey Jackson isn't it?" Tinder said trying to catch up. Jackson turned around and gave me a little nod with Wade chuckling to himself behind me.

"U-um no Upham actually Timothy Upham" I struggled

"Oh sorry still getting use to these names" laughed Tinder I laughed sarcastically because what he just said was not that funny.

"Where you from?"

"Umm I don't know you see because I travel a lot I never really asked my parents" Tinder said getting out his letter, it looked like he was pretending to read it. Jackson turned around to Wade lifting up his eyebrows. I tried to lean towards Tinder to see the letter I could see a glance of German writing I just had to ask.

"is that your letter from home"

"Yeah" Tinder said looking at me then looking back to the letter.

"Why is it in German?" I said loud enough for the rest to hear Mellish and Horvath looked at me but I pretended I didn't notice.

"Shut up!" Tinder whispered grinding his teeth together. At this point Jackson turned around walking a few feet towards Tinder.

"What!" Jackson said stopping in front of Tinder so he could not pass

"What did you just say to Upham?" Jackson was going bright red in the face I swear his cheeks where getting bigger.

"What's going on?" Miller shouted the squad stopped.

"I...I didn't say any...anything!" Tinder struggled like I would normal do.

"Jackson, what has gotten into you?" Reiben asked pulling Jackson away by the shoulders.

"JACKSON, UPHAM I want you both to stay away from Tinder until you both get you act together" Miller shouted at the front of the squad.

"What, it was him he...he was annoying me?" I shouted

"You annoy us Upham!" Reiben said, the others started to walk on when Jackson, Wade and I were still looking at Tinder in the same spot. Tinder turned to me and pushed me into the tree making a massive crack sound from my head which made me fall onto the floor. Wade ran to me and kneeled down before I could even blink.

"You alright?"

"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?" Jackson shouted but got pulled away by Mellish and Miller but Jackson was still trying to get to Tinder while Reiben went to Tinder.

"My head hurts" I wimped to Wade

"Let me have a look"

"HE PUSHED UPHAM RIGHT IN FRONT OF WADE AND MY EYES!" Jackson shouted on

"I...I didn't he tripped!" Tinder said looking guilty Wade looked at the others with his mouth wide open.

"You are such a liar!" Wade shouted "Upham is bleeding" Wade went on.

Wade helped me up and stopped my head from bleeding. The others went on while us three where walking slowly behind them.

"I can't believe they don't believe us. Tinder did it right in front of us!" Jackson said still red

"I know and he lied he is defiantly not right. Did you hear the crack on Upham's head" Wade said still surprised. Wade saying that made me cringe I put my hand over my forehead trying not to think about it.

"You alright Upham?" Jackson said softly which made Wade look at me

"Just a headache that's all" I lied because it really did hurt but it could not of hurt as much as being shot so I tried to stay strong.

"No Upham it's not just a headache he could of split you head open that little bug if only I had a gun!" Wade worriedly said.

"Oh don't you worry I will be using my gun today!" Jackson said sharpest.

"HURRY UP WE'VE GOT A WALL!" Miller shouted to us. Jackson and Wade ran up to catch up I just jogged still holding my helmet. When I finally got there we were all hidden behind a long wall of sandbags but they were not very high so you could just see our heads I reckon. I looked over the sandbags while Miller was mumbling on their were a big brick wall about a 70 feet away there was a gab in the middle of the wall I assume it was a door that was blown off but behind the wall was more fields, it just didn't make sense.

"That wall over there it needs to be clea-"I interrupted Miller before he could finish

"What do we have to do about that stupid wall?" I asked Miller looked at me with everyone else.

"Well he was about to get there until he was rudely interrupted!" Tinder said

"Shut up" Wade and Jackson said together I smiled

"There are Germans behind it, it needs to be cleared out" Miller carried on "Jackson I need you to do the first shot with your sniper then we will carry on"

"I can't see behind walls sir!"Jackson argued

"I don't care, Oh my lord what is wrong with you soldiers today? Just do it Jackson even if you don't get anyone!"

We were all squashed down covered by the sandbags while Jackson had his gun leaned upon the bags Jackson shot the first German that walked out then we all got up and started to shoot, I wasn't really shooting anyone but I was making it look as if I was. While the shooting was still going on I looked around, Wade was still covered I felt loads of shells pass me, I made cover and that's when I seen Tinder just watching all of us shoot he looked at me and raised his gun aiming at me Wade realised what he was doing and tugged Jackson's leg

"What are you doing Tinder you've got to shoot that way?" Jackson shouted which made everyone look but still shooting at the same time.

I felt the shell it was hit onto my shoulder so bad I instantly screamed

UPHAM!
