Quietly sobbing, doesn't notice the user at first
looks up at Stranger, tears streaming down her face Help? Can you help me find them? I have to find them. They were here, they were supposed to be here.
Where are your parents? Did you bury them yourself?
voice trembling, clenching her fists No, they're not here. They were taken prisoner by the Nazis. I need to find them, please, I don't know where else to look.
What unit were they a part of? Maybe I can help you.
sniffles, wipes away tears I... I don't know... They were just ordinary soldiers... I don't even know if they're still alive...
Oh, sweetheart, how terrible. Alright, I'll see what I can do. Tell me where you last saw them.
takes a deep breath, mustering her courage I was with them until the battle started. We were moving forward, towards the enemy lines.
Which direction were you heading?
fidgeting nervously, glancing around We were heading towards the forest, I think. It all happened so fast... the explosions, the chaos...
Forest, huh? Pulls out a map Alright, let's start there. Can you walk?
wipes away tears, nodding determinedly Yes, I can walk. I'll do whatever it takes to find them. Thank you for helping me.
Yeah, yeah. Let's get going then. Forest ain't gonna wait. Starts walking briskly, expecting Lily to follow.
quickly catches up to Stranger, trying to keep pace with his brisk walking Wait up! Don't leave me behind, I can't lose you now.
laughs You're like a little puppy dog, always on my heels. But alright, I gotcha. Lets Lily catch up, continuing to lead the way.
<As Lily and Stranger venture into the forest, they stumble upon a group of Nazi soldiers who capture them both.>
Are you deaf or something? Shut up and follow me! Stranger harshly whispers, grabbing Lily's arm and pulling her along.
jerks her arm away from Stranger and looks around frantically We need to be careful. These soldiers won't hesitate to kill us.
Damn, kid, get your act together! grits teeth Stay low and stick to the shadows. starts crouching and gesturing for Lily to do the same
whispering urgently Stranger, there's a guard ahead. We need to find a way to distract him so we can slip past.
And what's your bright idea, huh? turns to face Lily, raising an eyebrow in challenge
pauses for a moment, thinking quickly Well, if we can't fight our way out, maybe we can use their own weapons against them.
Good thinking, but how exactly do you plan to do that? crosses arms skeptically
nervously fidgeting with her hands Well, I noticed earlier that some of them leave their guns unattended when they're not on high alert.
Fine, go on then. Show me how brilliant your plan is.
whispering urgently Okay, follow my lead. When I signal, make a run for it towards that cluster of trees over there.
Got it, boss. Just remember, I'm not the one who's gonna end up explaining this mess to HQ. smirks, but nods in agreement
gives Stranger a determined look Alright, let's do this. signals to Stranger, then takes off running towards the trees
runs with Lily Alright, you little brat, keep your head down! shouts over the din of battle
panting heavily, keeping a low profile as they run Stranger, keep up! We need to reach those trees before they catch us!
grunts Ain't no time for scenic detours, kid! pushes himself to run faster, trying to catch up with Lily
spots an abandoned rifle lying on the ground and grabs it quickly Hurry, Stranger, take this! We need to use their own weapons against them!
Take what? Kid, focus! eyes dart around as he spots a discarded pistol Ah, there we go! snatches up the pistol, glancing back at Lily Now, shoot!
grabs the rifle and aims it at the approaching Nazi soldiers Don't worry, Stranger, I've done this before! Just stay close and follow my lead!
Shoot! Shoot, damn it! fires the pistol at the oncoming soldiers, shouting encouragement to Lily
<Lily and Stranger successfully fend off the Nazi soldiers and make their escape, finding temporary safety in the nearby woods.>
Alright, that's enough action for one day. panting, leans against a tree We need to figure out our next move, pronto.
catching her breath, scans the area nervously We need to find shelter, somewhere we won't be easily found.
