Where Nuremberg Failed

[Unit 4]

i enter his body. the knife drops onto the floor beside him

once inside i increase the intesity of my projection, so that i become a burning light inside his body.

[Machiavelli]

"we will fly. I am sure there are a lot of bodies in Helsinki right now lets go and raise your army."

Mac goes outside and transforms into the magnificant black dragon shaking his massive head and back making his oily black scales ripple. The light dances within making them look wet and many colors refect.

Come on...

[Raz Nili Ze'ev]

((OK, I'm bored, so we'll just assume Kaze has finished installing a Zwei-proof firewall, and Raz's systems have been reactivated.))

Raz gets up. She looks considerably better.

"Thank you very much. It is somewhat embarrasing that I am so dependent on something mechanical. If the IMI scientists were still alive, I'd have a talk with them."

Raz shakes Kaze's hand.

"If you ever need any help with anything, let me know. I owe you."

Then, Raz takes out her teffillin, her kippah, and her tallit.

"If you don't mind, I am going to pray for a bit, before resuming my mission."

[Antero Black]

"They are all off doing their own thing. I don't know where. They always forget me."

[Mikhael Nadyezhda (Mischa)]

I jerk my head back, and let out a scream of inhuman proportions. I consider biting off my tongue and killing myself by drowning on my own blood, but decide not to. I'm not in the army anymore, I'm not as expendable.

I resist the urges to call her a string of profanity that probably wouldn't come out coherent anyways, and just make me look like a jackass. I close my eyes, and try to find my power animal.

[Ixyanarosir]

I close my eyes and my body begins to expand. Glossy black scales with an almost mirror finish begin to emerge as my body reverts to its full, serpentine glory. My eyes open to reveal silvery pits swirling with darkness.

My massive leathery wings snap out, and I flap them a few times and lift off into the air.

"I am ready to depart when you are."

[Kazenara Miyajima]

Kaze smiled, "That's ok. But if you need more help I guess you know where to find me. By the way the name's Kazenara Miyajima but that probably isn't important."
She walked to the door, "Hey where am I so I can get back home?"

[Andrew Kasher]

A few hours and about fourty rescued people later, Andrew gets a sick feeling in his stomach. It isn't a premonition. Someone that he knows is in considerable pain... He doesn't know who though. He follows the signal, but it is muddied. Whoever is in pain must be in a null zone.

Andrew sits on a chunck of cement to take a breather. He focuses on the signal's location, but it is also quite vague. He surmises that it is coming from somewhere in Europe, but that isn't very helpful, except that he knows Sayuka is safe.

[Lila]

She turns and raises an eyebrow at him.
You sound like me. My parents always forgot me...unless they wanted money.

[Erika "Zwei" Faust]

"Excellent... Quite excellent." It feels good to inflict pain like this, to get back at those who caused me so much pain. "Perhaps when you have been properly conditioned you could amuse me in other ways. But for now your suffering will suffice." I watch as the caustic bubbles against his skin. "Unit 4, withdraw for now. We don't want to kill him... Yet." I throw vinegar onto the wounds, neutralizing the alkali.

[TheWyrm]

After several hours of looking, I'm still 'Hopeless'. Helsinki is a big city... Then I get an idea. If I can find the epicenter of the explosion, then maybe I can get an idea of where some key parts are.

I start looking for a satellite dish...

I find one near an old abandoned government building. After several hours, I finally get inside, and hook up at an old computer terminal. Good thing I'm patient with computers... I'm able to link up to a satellite above Helsinki, and can see where the explosion originated.

"Hmm, that looks like it's near the rebel base... I wonder if they're okay."

I close up, and head to the rebel base.

["Zero" Americanski]

As I walk I suddenly see someone familiar... "Wyrm... Are you here to help or not?" I demand.

[Raz Nili Ze'ev]

"Helsinki, or what's left of it," Raz states.

"My name is Liutenant Raz Nili Ze'ev of Hagana, although I suppose rank is irrelevant now, since my organization's base has been destroyed, and General Dagan is dead."

Raz puts on her tallit (prayer shawl)

"Baruch ata ADONAI elohenu melech haolam, asher kidshanu b'mitzvotav, lehitatef b'tzittzit."

She wraps her tefillin around her forearm, and ties the other part to her forehead.

Then, she puts on her kippah.

She closes her eyes, starts rocking back and forth, and whispers Hebrew quickly.

[Mikhael Nadyezhda (Mischa)]

I close my eyes, as the relief washes over me, I fall into a deep, almost coma like sleep. I think of ways to justify this swastika...

In some cultures, it was a sign of good luck, that's it.

[Unit 4]

i slip out of mischa's body, it was dark and cramped in there.

I NEED SOME TIME OUTSIDE.

i teleport outside to be in the sunlight.
