The War That Transcends Timelines! 36 Operation Unity Part Ii/Ii

''Sir after the votes the burial of Angela and Wolfram will be held, would you like to attend?'' Rudolf leaned in and asked me. ''Yes of course!'' I replied. ''Sir if I may be blunt, why did you even come up with plan 3, it is unreasonable with our current resources and will incur the wrath of the [Unknown] Organisation.'' the head of Education/drills stated. ''I fully agree the head of education, I have put plan 3 to see if everyone is still thinking rational.'' Rudolf replied and immediately after speaking did the new Hauptmann step forward, ''THE VOTES ARE IN!'' He shouted. ''Please tell them Hauptmann'' The head of Intelligence demanded. ''YES SIR, The votes for plan 3 are 1, The votes for plan 2 are 7 and the votes for plan 1 are 5 SIR!'' The Hauptmann reported before leaving. ''It seems Plan 2 has won with a slight majority over plan 1.'' Rudolf said before continuing, ''I hope all sector heads do know that plan 2 is much harder to achieve than Plan 1, and that Plan 2 has a much Higher risk of exposure to the [Unknown] Organisation.''

''We understand Commander Rudolf, but remember No risk no reward.'' The head of logistics said. ''So does everyone agree with the final voting?'' I asked them. ''Yes, Marshall!'' They replied in unison. ''Rudolf than explain or first phase of the plan'' I ordered Rudolf. ''Yes Kyle. The plan exists out of 6 Phases:

-Phase one will be establishing a small base of operation in Bern and gain a foothold in Swiss Politics,

-Phase two will be the expanding of our political foothold to get more than 50% of Swiss politicians under our influence and start foreign recruitment, this time we do it all over Europe, making it hard for the [Unknown] Organisation to strike us everywhere,

-Phase three will consist of rebuilding our Mother base in the Swiss Alps, while only keeping and strengthening our political foothold,

-Phase four will be the transfer of all our a.s.sets in Europe, aka our factories, foreign recruits, etc Into Switzerland.

-Phase 5 will be to build on top of the Swiss Forts already build and expand it to encompa.s.s the entire Border, we need the entire countries industry to be able to start this project hence the previous phases.

-Phase 6, extend an alliance agreement with the Country of Austria if refused our phases will end here. If it is accepted our plan will be exactly the same as we do in Switzerland.

We will need each and every single one of the sector heads to work together in teams to accomplish this plan.'' He answered. ''But Commander Rudolf, what about our current a.s.sets here?'' The head of construction and Storage asked. ''We will dismantle them and transfer to our new construction site. That is why the head of Construction and the head of Logistics will stay here. Together with the Last Black Skulls. But if the enemy attacks again you are to drop everything and retreat to Switzerland!'' Rudolf replied. 'It is harsh on our personnel' I sigh, 'But I will sacrifice anything now, I know what will happen, I will guide these men, I will guide my people. To destruction or to salvation.' I said in my heart.

''Okay gentleman, besides the Construction and logistics sector, start preparing the equipment, we will leave in 3 days,'' I said to them. ''Rudolf lets go,'' I said, Rudolf nodded and stood up to go push my wheelchair. ''Kyle, are we making the correct choice?'' Rudolf asked softly, ''I do not know Rudolf, I only know, that we have to fight to survive and people will suffer. I cannot change that, I can only protect the people under me and sacrifice the rest.'' I replied. There was only silence after that as we started to approach the burial grounds. 'Thousands of men have been buried here, fighting for a cause they do not fully understand, fighting to defeat an unknown enemy, fighting not for the greater good, but their idea of what they are fighting for.' I apologise to these men in my head. ''We are sorry Kyle, but we couldn't make anything fancy, I hope you understand'' Rudolf said. I just nodded.

We arrived at the burial ground, 8 pallbearers all in the black skull uniform were holding up the

two coffins. There was only silence, there are no clergymen and no religion in our organisation, we just buried the 2 men in silence. 'I must stay strong, I CAN'T BE A CHILD ANYMORE!' I roared in my heart. 'The pain, the taste of blood and defeat, the death. It is all my fault, not Rudolf's, not the sector heads. it is mine!' I blamed myself. The air of responsibility and the aurora of resoluteness and Authority which was weak that started to form last speech were increasing in strength exponentially, The Black skulls were starting to feel the pressure, even Rudolf started to sweat under the indirect pressure. Wisdom and decisiveness extruded Kyle's eyes.

All emotions were suppressed, anger, love, hate, sadness, anxiety, sorrow, Resentment, Guilt, Despair... The only one blazing right now are Confidence, the confidence stemming from knowing the future! 'I shall show them, that I will be the last one to laugh in the end!'

The Burial lasted 30 minutes, Rudolf gave a speech. No one clapped, no one dared, as their Marshall just looked, No tears, only confidence. At this moment, although Rudolf couldn't put his finger on it, he knew Kyle has lost something. Even Kyle doesn't know,... that he has lost a shred of his Humanity.

The men slowly left the burial grounds after they covered the coffin with dirt. ''Rudolf, prepare the convoy for departure in 3 days as well,'' I said while still looking forward. Immense pressure was out on Rudolf's heart, and with a heavy voice, he replied, ''Yes Si...Kyle, I will help with the preparation.''

''Good, also how is it going with the Panther?'' I asked. ''The panther has a 5 cm wide hole in the frontal armour and the sh.e.l.l destroyed the entire driver section and transmission, the past 2 weeks we have repaired the transmission, but repairing the entire driver section will take time, Kyle.'' He replied. ''Take your time. Also, I remember a Location for the new Mother base, it is close to a village called Blatten, there is a valley, if we build it a the end, no matter how many enemies come, we can crush them.''I said ' I went skiing there when I was younger, it will be a great Location.' I thought to myself. Already imagining the thousands of men dying under continues fire. ''I will head to Bern first, to establish contact with a few Politicians. Prepare my car.'' I ordered Rudolf. ''But Kyle, we first have to persuade Zero to be your bodyguard again!'' Rudolf replied anxiously. ''Just get me Mackensen and the Sector head of Intelligence to go with me. Also if Gunther gets out of his coma to send him as well. Zero will change his mind, just give him some time Rudolf.'' I answered.

''And what about your weakened condition Kyle?!? You are in a wheelchair!'' Rudolf tries to persuade Kyle to stay a bit longer.''It is just the Muscles that need to recuperate, that will take at most one day.'' I answered calmly. ''I understand Kyle, I will then prepare the cars.'' With that said Rudolf headed off, but just before leaving he ordered a gold skull to push me around.

''IN THE MARSHALL WE TRUST!'' The Golden Skull saluted as he approached me. ''At ease, get me to the armoury Soldier,'' I ordered him. There was no small talk, a certain distance was kept between the soldier and the Marshall. I just watched the scenery as I was pushed forward, but that did not last long as after 4 minutes of pushing did we arrive at the armoury, which is almost devoid of people. All guns and ammo were recollect meaning it is jam-packed with weapons and ammo. ''Soldier, go get me 7,92 x 57 mm Mauser ammo. Also, go get me some grenades and throwing knives as well.'' I ordered. ''Yes Marshall!'' He replied. I just waited as he was getting the requested materials. Only after 7 minutes did he step out with the materials. 6 grenades, 8 throwing knives, 4 boxes of MG42 ammo. 'I already checked, although I have 10 storage slots, I can make stacks of 10 in them, with Heavy weaponry being an exception.' ''Please get someone to carry these to my car, also add with it 3 MP40s and enough ammunition,'' I ordered. ''The gold skull saluted and walked away with the materials towards the vehicle which was currently being refilled, stocked and prepared for leaving. 'I guess I will wait a bit here.' I looked at the sun High in the sky while thinking about the Organisations Future. ''Kyle!'' My thoughts were interrupted by Rudolf approaching me whilst saying: ''The Cars are prepared, The people you requested are waiting. Also, we have gotten a Gold skull as a driver, for protection.'' ''Thank you, Rudolf, I will expect you to also come to Bern in a week time, by then I will have hopefully already gathered a few politicians to our side,'' I said to Rudolf while he was pushing me towards where the car is parked. 'That is my car?!?' Many thoughts ran through my head as I saw the car, or should I say cars, 2 pristine Black not Bentley's but Mercedes's were parked behind each other. ''Sir these were 2 cars specially ordered by Angela when you were not here. They are 2 1930 Mercedes-Benz SSKs. But we supplied the materials and engine, We used t.i.tanium plating and a heavy diesel engine, they are faster and stronger!'' Rudolf said. 'Tsk, Angela, u sure have good taste, I wonder what your expression would have been if you saw them complete right now.' I thought. ''Thank you, Rudolf, I expect you to be there ON time,'' I said to him. ''I will Kyle!'' He replied, with that said Rudolf walked off to prepare the convoy, while I was helped into the car at the back. I was on in the right seat, while the Gold skull was in the driver seat. In the car in front, there was the Sector head of Intelligence behind the wheel and Mackensen on the other seat. 'broooom' The engines started up,

''IN THE MARSHALL WE TRUST!'' The remaining soldiers saluted as the cars slowly drove off out of the base. I saluted back, 'It might be rushed decision leaving already, but I must! Time doesn't wait for anyone.' I thought to myself, 'Thank G.o.d they left the wanderer gear next to me in the Hospital, so I could easily change back into it before we headed off to the meeting.'
