Chapter 21 - 21: Heading back

...

"Alright. Well thats that. Everyone prepare to leave, Nelly i probably don't need to worry about your team with the beats tank so we will be heading out." The commander nods to nelly as he then turns around and waves to lena and prima who nods and wave in return.

"Awe... well atleast we finnaly get to rest." Slumps zoe.

"Hah! Keep in mind that we are still probably going to encounter some while heading back." Laughs zoya as she slaps zoe's back.

Nodding, raisa leads the group. While zoe and zoya follow behind her, then the commander and both of me.

As we navigate back through the seigfried line and dealing with some passing beast tanks that have either newly arrived or the ones that ran away from the fighting before having returned.

After a while...

The commander sighs, "status report."

"Gear is all good, half of my ammo have been used however." As raisa checks her gear then looks at zoya who nods.

"Same here, just some scratches on mine but it'll buff out. Ammo though is still more than half."

Meanwhile zoe crouching down next to jumbo and patting it, "jumbo has been hit a bit but he is fine, and so am i. Ammo though uh... i only have 19 shells left..." as she stands up with a embarrassed frown.

The commander shakes his head upon hearing zoe's ammo count, then looks at me.

"We're doing fine just some small scratches from moving around."

As i then nod with johan stabding next to anastasia, "yep, and as for ammo thanks to zoya helping me salvage some we've still got plenty of shells left."

With zoya laughing heartily, "hahaha! Well of course anastasia still has ammo to spare, she's hit almost every shot she fired at the beast tanks compared to zoe!"

With a shock zoe quips back, "muuu! Im not THAT bad a shot am i!? Unlike them i have to dodge the incoming shells!" (#`皿´)

Causing zoya and raisa to laugh and giggle, while the commander stifles a chuckle.

As the commander then stands up and nods, "alright, alright thats enough. We still have quite a bit of walking before we reach the jeep. So let's get moving before the sun starts to set."

As the girls all nod resolutely, i follow the commander as the group starts moving once more having already passed the seigfried line a while ago.

With the girls having slowing their pace since the commander, and both of me are just normal people and having walked quite far away from the seigfried line it has become more of a scenic walk since the amount of beast tanks encounter has lessened. Although some groups do stray a bit towards us most of the ones that notice us dosen't dare to approach.

After a bit more walking we finally make it back to the base that we fixed up before and decided to rest there for the night since the sun already set and the commander didn't want to risk moving at night.

"Alright since no one manning this base at the moment and it will probably still be a while before someone does, lets make use of this base for now. Because i have a feeling that we might be going back to the research institute." As the commander enters a room and closes the door.

With me and the girls now looking at the door then back to everyone else.

I look at myselfs then nod,

"We'll go look for a room, since we Preffer to stay together." With anastasia leading down the hall, i follow behind with johan leaving the girls to busy themselfs with their gear.

'Ok. This has been one hell of a day and i am dead tired. Mentally and physically. Sure the cannon that anastasia is holding isn't much and so are she bag filled with its shells. Its more so that having to lug them around the whole day has my arms and back a bit sore, which im sure a good rest will fix right up.'

As i spot a room and enter it, being a small bedroom and a bunk bed. Perfect.

Meanwhile... somewhere out in the wilderness...

"Hmmm...."

"Yep. Im lost."

"Lost and hungry...."

"And these animals aren't that tasty... and dosen't really fill my tummy even a bit!"

"I swear! When i get back im gonna complain a lot!"

"What even was i supposed to do again?

"Well.... first i need to figure out where i am... oh mighty stick! Point me where to go! Pew!"

Plonk....

"That way it is! I hope theres something to eat that way..."

...

...

...

Meanwhile back with the jagdtiger squad.

"Nnhhhggggg! Nelly! Why do we have to pull this monkey without your help? You're the strongest out of all of us here!" Lena grunts as she and prima drags a sedated gorrila onto a transport vehicle.

With prima nodding with a frown.

"Shh im busy!, yes. Yes. Alright i understand. We will get there in a few hours."

With nelly talking on a radio by the truck. Leaving prima ans lena to pull the gorrila onto the truck by themselfs.

After a while...

With nelly driving the truck, prima riding shotgun and lena at the truck bed by the gorilla scouting for potential enemies while the truck travels down a highway.

"All clear! I don't see anything for a few miles." As lena opens the rear truck window hatch to report, nelly nods.

"Alright, take a break. It's still a few hours till we arrive anyways." As nelly looks at the rear view mirror seeing lena nod and stitring down on one crate by the cab of the truck.

"And make sure the beast is secured properly. Wouldnt want it to fall down now do we?"

As a pained groan from lena and a sigh from prima could be heard down the highway as the truck speeds through the setting sun.
