The War That Transcends Timelines - 82 Phase Five Part I/II

Time: 5 Minutes after the go Signal was given for Phase Five

Location: A Large Oak tree in the Compound, close to the Vehicle Depot

POV: Shadow’s

‘Tsk, something is amiss, The patrols have increased, Men are more alert, don’t tell me someone fucked up.’ I thought with a disappointed look on my face. A luxurious car drives right under the tree I am sitting on, ‘Who is it?’ I peak over the thick branch to see who is seated in the car, ‘IMPOSSIBLE!’ Immediately many memories start to flood my mind.

POV: Shadow’s

‘Where am I?’ I ask myself, I look at my hands which I can see through. I try grabbing something but to no avail. ‘Is this an old Memory?’ I started to think of the possibilities. I look at myself in the memory in silence…

”Now. Tell me, where did you hide the primary teleporter transmission device!” A German Scientist, who has British citizenship asked, ”WHERE IS IT!” He shouted, ”I WILL NEVER TELL YOU, YOU TRAITOR!” I shouted. ‘Beep!’ ”If you do not tzell us where it zis I have no other option than to resort to more painful optzions.” The Scientist said in very broken English. Immediately Two needles with an unknown liquid were pushed into my arms and injected the Liquid, ”Tzis is the latest design of ‘Die kaiserliche deutsche Forschung program’, Serum XIV. Enjoy” He said before leaving the room, ”AAHH.” I shouted in agony, pain attacked every inch of my body, it felt like a million ants were crawling through my body….. The Memory changes again.

”Day 23, You have done well to rezist serum XIV, but I believe your time will come soon like your ally.” The Doctor said while pointing at another dead German, ”Rommel!” I shouted, it was not the Erwin Rommel we know as the Desert Fox, but the Father of Rommel. Blood is streaming from the edge of his lips, I could bearly hear his last words, ‘All hail the Confederation…’ and with those words, he breathed his last breath. ”BASTARD!” I shouted at him, ”Men Continue ze injection.” The scientist said before leaving again, my body was riddled with pain as the same feeling washes over me again…

”Day 99, Today ist your last day, It seems zat serum XIV doesn’t work on you, and we can’t keep you here as the British Intelligence agency might find us. But your memories are dangerous, we could kill you, but in ze future, we might have a more potent serum. We will only change your memories temporarily until we meet again, ja?” The scientist said again, ”YOU BETTER HOPE IT WORKS ELSE I’ll COME AFTER YOU AND KILL YOU, Dr.ARIBERT HEIM!” I shouted at him…

‘Dr. Aribert Heim, it seems I have a quota unfulfilled.’ I chuckled. My old memories started to flood my brain, but I endured. I keep my old name Shadow, the old one is kept in the past, ‘Why did he join the Union though?’ I started to think a bit more about the situation. I jumped from the thick branch onto the roof of a building in front of it after Dr. Aribert Heim passed by with his car. With quick speed and determination, I started to climb the massive bunker to the top.’The Commander’s Roome is located on top the Highest tower in the area, which oversees the Obj.289, Protected by exactly 34 elite Union Soldiers, 4 Machineguns, 2, 20mm flak cannons, reinforced concrete walls, steel doors and lastly thick bulletproof glass. Going to be a walk in a park, I guess.’ I chuckled. I Used a grey cloak to cover me while crawling up the Oval shaped Bunker, making it difficult for enemies to see me directly. ‘Easy does it.’ I said to myself while using rubber suction cups to slowly move upwards, sticking to the building. ‘Damn, the constant twisting to release the suction cups is quite heavy.’ I complained. It took me more than 8 minutes to reach the top of the roof of the complex, just behind the massive steel blast doors. ‘WHAT!’ I shouted in my heart as I see directly down into the Bunker, ”The doors are open!” I said softly to myself.

”No shit Sherlock that the doors are open!” A voice which was not that close but not that far from me said. I quickly turn around aiming my silenced pistol at him, ”Zero?” I asked in my hoarse voice. ”Yes, it seems something unexpected has happened, I have been trying to contact the Marshall, but something is jamming the Signal, my search has led me to the Commander’s Office.” Zero said, ”But since you are here, it means forced powerful Signals can be sent, but sadly only those can be sent not normal transmissions.” Zero lamented. I point at the Commander’s office and then at my flashing green light on my radio. ”Yes. You have your mission to complete. Do you mind if I help?” Zero asked. I shacked my head and started to run towards the Commander’s Office, the Guards are all stationed internally, not externally.

In less than 2 Minutes of running, we reached the bottom of the large concrete tower. I use my rubber suction pads which cover my entire front body to start climbing. ”Mhm, the Marshall has given you the Fish suite?” Zero asked while analysing Shadow’s armour. I just nodded before continuing onwards. The fish suite it is called because it has many tiny suction pads, so you make a wave motion with your body to climb upwards, causing always 50% of the pads to be connected and making it less tiring for the operator. Zero coughed lightly, I look at him seeing a rope in his hands, ”Could you.. you know, tie this up there for me to climb.” Zero said a bit embarrassed for failing to have any equipment for this. I just grabbed the rope and started to climb the tower.

(Aribert Ferdinand Heim was an Austrian SS doctor, also known as “Dr Death”. During World War II he served at the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp in Mauthausen, killing and torturing inmates by various methods, such as direct injections of toxic compounds into the hearts of his victims.)
