Chapter 4

Upham P.O.V

I woke up early before everyone else, my arm was in agony I really wanted to wake up Wade but he was a sleep I really hate disturbing people.

"Good morning I think it's still quiet dark out" Jackson said sitting up he looked at me then came to sit by me.

"You all right?"

"Yeah my arm hurts that's all" I rubbed my arm but not as hard as last night

"Wade, Wade, wake up!" Jackson was shaking Wade

"Don't wake him up, Jackson" Jackson ignored me. Wade started to moan like a child being late to school because they want to stay in bed.

"What Jackson?" Wade asked rubbing his eyes at the same time as sitting up.

"Upham's arm is hurting" as soon as Wade heard this he looked at me then he searched for his bag. Wade gave me a bit more morphine then started to talk to Jackson I felt a little left out.

"What's going on" I asked Wade and Jackson they both turned their heads to look at me

"Well we think Tinder is a German spy because of his dog tag" Wade whispered to me with Jackson nodding. I felt my mouth open.

"Goooooood Morning!" Tinder shouted from behind us. All three of us jumped I felt like I just got shot again.

"Bloody hell Tinder what you trying to do kill us?" Jackson said sniggering. Wade and I looked at each other with smiles.

"Ha-ha that's funny Jackson" Tinder shot back at him. We all looked at each other and back to him. Tinder then sat down with us he started talking about his travelling I felt so self-conscious around him I picked up my gun reloaded it and kept my finger on the trigger because I'm not having him shoot me or anyone else again. Wade and Jackson looked at me and realised what I was doing I wish I never off done that now because I bet they think I'm scared.

We all finally woke up and started our journey again crossing the fields. I have to admit France is a beautiful place. Tinder was behind us all slowly walking, I kept turning around every time I did he gave me glares which I'm use to.

"Hey Kantor how you doing back there" Jackson shouted the squad stopped and looked at Jackson

"Shut up!" whispered Wade

"Who Kantor?" asked Reiben and Mellish

"What is going on here" Miller shouted we all looked at Miller hopping he would forget it and carry on.

"You three got me" Tinder said walking past us all then turns around so he could see every one of our faces.

"PUT YOUR WEAPONS DOWN NOW OTHERWISE I WILL SHOOT YOU ALL" Shouted Tinder

"Guys do what he says!" Miller said nervously we all put our guns down. I refused to but my gun down

"Upham put it down" Mellish ordered I ignored him

"PUT IT DOWN I WILL SHOOT YOU BOY" Tinder was getting angry. Wade slowly walked towards me trying to take the gun off me he didn't fail because he took it out of my hand and dropped it onto the floor. Tinder moved his gun to Wade.

"Whoa" Wade was shaking putting his hands into the air he walked back a few steps, but tripped onto the gun and fell to the floor we all sighed thinking Tinder was going to shoot him

"I will shoot you right there right now Wade isn't it don't even think about getting up!" the gun was still aimed at Wade; I had to do something he was going to shoot. I walked forward; Tinder instantly moved his gun aimed at me now.

"Don't Upham" Jackson said calmly

"Tinder" I said a bit shaken I decided to talk German I didn't want the others to know what I was saying.

"dort 7 von uns und ein von Ihnen, aufzugeben. Lassen Sie Ihre Waffe und weglaufen nie wieder kommen oder ich werde dich erschießen!" (there 7 of us and 1 of you, give up. Drop your gun and run away never come back or i'll shoot you!)

"You haven't got a gun!" Tinder said

"What are you saying SPEAK BLOODY ENGLISH?" Horvath shouted.

"Oh really... Ich nicht fragen Sie wieder" (I will not ask you again) I felt myself burning up. Tinder hesitated

"eine" I shouted

"WHAT'S HAPPENING?" Miller shouted

"I wish I learnt German at school!" Reiben interrupted

"zwei" I shouted

"Upham please!" Wade begged

"I've never seen Upham so angry" Mellish shouted

"Shut up I think they are going to shoot each other" Horvath shouted

"drei" I shouted

"Upham?" Jackson asked confused

"Zeiten bis" (Times up) I shouted I felt my eyes watering. I got my pistol out of my back pocket and shot Tinder everyone stared at Tinder then me. I collapsed onto the floor and started crying Wade and Jackson came over to kneel besides me.

"We sorry" Miller said Wade nodded looking back at me.
