14 The Escape Part III

Angela's POV:

'Dammit, they just keep coming, I have to disguise quickly as a German officer if I am to get these businessmen out of here.' Angela cursed in her head. ''Get ready boys we are getting out of here!'' I said to increase morale.

They were running towards the vehicle depot when they suddenly fell the ground shaking. 'IMPOSSIBLE!' ''EVERYONE GET IN COVER!'' Angela Screamed at the men running behind her. Everyone looked in horror as the saw Huge shells descend upon them from above. They looked at the castle was being shot to smithereens, ''152mm Howitzers, 152mm HOWITZERS!'' Angela screamed in horror.'How did they get heavy artillery on that hill, and that many, there has to be a minimum of 35 pieces located there!' Angela thought to herself.

Angela quickly got the businessmen on the 1/2 ton Military grade trucks. 'I have to be quick, If they change targets to the base in front of the castle/prison, we'll be doomed!' Angela started the truck and with the greatest speed headed towards the checkpoint leading out of the military camp.

''Papers please!'' The guard at the post shouted as he aimed his MP40 at Angela in German officer Uniform. Angela handed over the forged documents to the guard, He grabbed the documents when suddenly a very loud voice boomed over the entire military base, coming from the direction of the artillery fire positions:'' Hello Prisoners! It seems you are very keen on leaving today, But my name will not be Heinrich Himmler If I do not give even a tiny bit of a challenge leaving this beautiful Castle! GUARDS NO ONE IS TO LEAVE THE PREMISES NO MATTER THE COST!'' Himmler said whilst laughing. ''You have heard Himmler, proceed back to where you came from, no officer is to leave as well.'' the guard said still aiming the gun at Angela.'FUCK, why is Himmler here?!?' Angela's thought process was completely jumbled up, when suddenly ''BANG!'' The guard looked at Angela baffled, not knowing what just happened when he slowly fell down. Angela looked in the rearview mirror and saw the leader of the businessmen holding an old Colt .45 revolver, smiling at her and then saying:''Go, Angela, we don't have much time.'' As now the external alarm went off as well, meaning the prisoners already made their way out of the Castle grounds onto the military base. Angela stepped on the gas, speeding away in the direction of Kiefersfelden.

Going back to Kyle's POV:

''Hurry up! The castle won't stand a chance much longer!'' I said to the scientists above me. ''We are doing our best Kyle! We are only a few meters away from the exit of the shaft.'' The scientist that is taking the lead said. We climbed at a quicker pace when suddenly: WHAAAAA!'' a Scientist in the middle lost his grip and started to fall downwards pulling 2 other scientists with him, me being at the back reacted quickly. 'Shing' I pulled out my Katana and Tanto stabbing them both at the sides of the shaft than I did a handstand pointing my feet at the falling scientists,' I hope they are not damn heavy!' I cursed inside my head. The first scientist landed on my feet with his back, causing my knees to flex halfway, but before could even extend them again the 2nd scientist fell on top of the other causing my knees to completely fold, making me look like I was crouching upside down. I tried to extend my legs but before I could even try did the 3rd scientist land on the other 2 causing my arms to buckle under the pressure. I held on tightly to my Katana and Tanto, who were cutting down in the shaft. after cutting for more than 8 meters did we finally stop falling further. I grunted before asking:'' are you 3 okay?'' The all grunted as a yes. while slowly regaining their footing. ''YOU ALL OKAY?'' The other scientists shouted down the shaft. The other 3 scientists were looking worriedly down the shaft, but after seeing us climbing closer did they sigh as a sign of relief.

''We are fine'' I said as I climbed out of the opening of the shaft, I quickly started to run towards the entrance of the Castle, ''Let us hurry towards the entrance, Wolfram, Gunther and Mackensen should all already be there, and if we are lucky other scientists as well.'' After running less than 3 minutes did we run into Mackensen, ''Mackensen what are you doing here?!? And where is Gunther!?!'' I asked worriedly, ''Gunther should be with Wolfram and the other soldiers, and look what I found.'' Mackensen said with a grin as he opened the suitcase holding the documents he took,''Top secret documents!'' After exchanging a few words did we all together start to run towards the Castle's entrance. '' Did you hear Himmler as well?'' I ask Mackensen, '' Yes, It troubles me how he knew, and why those heavy artilleries are positioned there, The SS should not have that much power to move that many Artillery pieces, not even talking about heavy artillery!'' Mackensen replied.

''BOOM!'' Artillery fire came louder the closer we got to the entrance, eventually, we heard heavy machine gun fire and small arms fire. ''INCOMING!'' Gunther shouted as artillery shells started to rain close to the Castle's entrance. 'BOOM!' Another explosion hit the castle. 'We can't keep this up for long.' I thought to myself.

We ran towards Gunther's position, just behind one of the MG42s Positions. 2 soldiers were each manning an MG42, Besides them, there was Gunther with his Kar98k and 46 other Soldiers, all elite, who were deemed too smart and dangerous. Their leader was Wolfram, who was behind the other MG42 Position. ''Wolfram! Come here quickly!'' I shouted at him. He looked at me before nodding. It was then that I noticed that Wolfram has multiple gun wounds on his left arm.

After Wolfram joined up I gave him a worried look, and said softly to him: '' You okay Wolfram?'' It sounded like a brother worrying for his smaller brother. Wolfram nodded before answering:''I am fine.'' his voice was soft as well. Wolfram was only 15 years old but has the most fierce fighting style. He has single-handedly defeated all soldiers locked up in the prison, the only exception being me and because of that very reason did he demand to follow me. But because he was only 15 and him being an only child has caused me to be like a big brother towards him. He didn't mind and actually enjoyed a familial feeling. ''Okay Wolfram, you stay back and tend to your injuries,'' I said to him in a louder voice. ''I can still fight, I only need one arm to shoot!'' He said defiantly. I gave him a piercing look, which caused him to shrink back. ''Okay'' he said almost so that no one can hear. The other soldiers had baffled looks as they watched this, their fearsome leader actually was like a meek sheep around Kyle.

''LISTEN UP MEN!'' I shouted to attract their attention, ''We now go to the final phase of the plan, as promised, after we are free you have 3 options! One! Leave Germany and live a peaceful life somewhere else. Two! Leave the Country and fight against her with another organisation. Three! Work for me and fight for a German Organisation!'' Everyone was looking at me while thinking, the scientists didn't have to think before answering:''You saved our lives today and have saved us a period of our lifetimes not rotting in a prison, we are forever indebted to you, and thus we shall work for you.'' The 6 scientists he rescued all agreed with the reply their leader gave, even 12 other scientists who made it out fighting through the German blockades agreed. The businessmen had no other option, and they didn't mind actually, thinking they can get money and power quickly. Little do they know it will be a military organisation, where the businessmen will be supply routes used for gaining materials for the base. Clearly limiting their influences to outside the base. From the 50 soldiers, 40 just follow Wolfram's decision while the other 10 wanted to live a peaceful life after leaving. ''OKAY MEN, LETS START THE FINAL PHASE AND GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!'' I shouted as everyone took their weapons and started to head towards the armoury.
