Furs At War

[JellyMuffins]

"Alright men, we're making this jump at night! You've all done this plenty of times in the past and this time is no different, the invasion has already begun and the Nazi's will have their forces focussed on the beach; our mission is to drop in about 5 clicks behind the German lines, breaking their supply lines and making sure that no reinforcements can reach the beach, you got that?" There is are shouts of approval and nods from the men as they settle back into the mesh seats. For the rabbit, it had been a long time since he had tuned out the roar of the plane's engines, keeping silent as the men conversed in shouts around him and then during their Lieutenant's speech. He shifted, looking around at the other paratroopers, wondering which of them would be alive in 24 hours time...

"war of atttrition.." Kitt spat over the side of the train carriage onto the rumbling tracks... "i hate it... always keep movin... never let em stab you in the back... well if the high-ups say this is what they want.. this is what they'l get..." putting two fingers to his helmet, and then to his rifle he whispered under his breath in slovak... "may my armour save me.. my rifle kill them... i fight for my country's people... and i best not let them down..."

[Armalite_]

The train shuddered to a stop. It was quiet outside. A whistle blew and one at a time, the doors of the train cars slid open. Soldiers poured out from their own cars while they hustled around carrying weapons and ammunation. Spike, Daniel, and Seigefreid hopped off the train car and looked around. Spike squinted his eyes in the blaring sun. He noticed the beach was unrecognizable since his childhood. The sands were stained black with axel grease and the rolling hills were scattered with machine gun nests and bunkers. He looked out to sea, the faint distant bumps of American ships on the horizon.  He turned around and waited for the rest of his squad.

[KittKat chunky~]

"and by the people of my republic... the people i defend with my life... i shall not die this day... and if i do die this day... i will die with a rifle in my paw... and the fire of a hundred slovaks in my heart.... for the motherland... and for freedom!"

Kitt finished the last murmured sentence and pushing his helmet back out of his eyes he stood and followed Spike and Seigfried out of the car, ignoring the looks he was getting from the other german troops at the fact he was wearing a slovakian helmet and uniform....   

"dont get me wrong here spike... but i do believe im rather unwelcome with some of the troops here..."  winking he slung the PTRS over his shoulder along with his SVT-40 rifle and stood at Spikes side staring out at sea.... and the dark behemoths that where the allied destroyers...

Spike shot a glare at the Germans still in the car that eyed Kitt. "There's no room in this army for childish attittude. We will all fight and die for the Third Reich." He said, looking back at Kitt. "Let's move. We need to get set up." He said, carrying the MG42 over his shoulder and turned to walk down the muddy road to the machine gun bunkers.

[KittKat chunky~]

"y'sir..." Kitt followed Spike off down the road, thick dark mud splashing up with every soldiers trudging step... a funeral march, every one of them knew they could be walking towards their deaths...

[Gabag]

Jumping out from the train car, Wolfgang ran towards the murder hole following the squad, sighting the American ships, he notted the ones that carried armor.
"Looks like the two transports on the left have some sort of tank, probably nothing compared to our Panzers and Panthers." Wolf muttered, still scoping out the Americans, when he spotted some on a ship fire at the front line troops.
"Incomming fire sir!" Wolf yelled, as the boom of Flak 88s and Pak 40s rang in his ears.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

When Cyrus' transport hit the beach, the door fell down and Orin pulled Cyrus to the back as the first ten men in the front were gunned down in an instant. "Those who charge first are often the ones to die first, or was the history of Troy just a story to you?" Cyrus huffed at him before taking aim into one of the pill boxes, capping a nazi by aiming just over the barrel of the machine gun. It stopped shooting for a good few moments before it began to fire again. "I took one out, but they've got reserve gunners so when I shoot one down, run for your life"

Orin nodded and rallied a few soldiers with him as Cyrus took aim again...

[Gabag]

Seeing the American Marksman (Cryus) take aim at Sergi, he fires a shot, knocking the Yankee's helmet off.
"Sergi, get down, sniper has a bead on you!" he yelled as Sergi went prone, covered by the sandbags, but able to fire down.

[Armalite_]

Spike set up the bipod of the MG42 on the snadbag bunker and opened the top hatch of the weapon, he fit on a chain of bullets andshut it closed. He pulled the lever back and held the chain up with his left hand and held the trigger with his right. He took aim at an American landing boat. The hatch lowered and the roar of the weapon sounded. Spike fired, eliminating the soldiers in the front row. As the bodies fell, one row after another was killed. Some jumped over the sides to save themselves. Spike already knew how deep those waters were. More than half would drown. Spike turned to Seigefreid, Daniel and Kitt. "Amerikaner!!! Eintragfaden! Eintragfaden!" He ordered. He turned back to the beach and fired. A mortar crew next to Spike were scrambling to load rounds into the tube.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

"Dang, he ducked out of my range....and my hats gone!!" Cyrus grabbed his helmet and made a dash with Orin, hoping the gunman wouldn't see them make a run for the hedgehogs on the beach to avoid gunfire...

[KittKat chunky~]

Spike turned to Seigefreid, Daniel and Kitt. "Amerikaner!!! Eintragfaden! Eintragfaden!" He ordered

"WHAT?!"
Kitt ducked as a shell from a small destroyer impacted just above their position...
"SPIKE! I DONT SPEAK FLUENT GERMAN!" (Kitt had been speaking in a mix of german and slovak words when he couldnt remember the german so far)

Looking from Spike to the americans he understood well enough and pulled out the anti-tank rifle... locking the bulky clip into the weapon he pulled back on the loading mechanism... satisfied with the loud ka-chunk... before lying prone on the sandbags... he fired three times in quick succesion... the large callibre rounds passing through the armoured lander with ease killing the driver.... the lander veered left into another, both ground to a halt on the beach.. men struggling to climb out of the wreckage....

[Armalite_]

Spike swiveled the gun over to the tank Kitt had forced the Americans out of. He began to fire, picking them off as the struggled to climb off. There was a thud from behind him. He turned around to see that a grenade had landed right at his feet. He immediately picked it up and threw it back, having it detonate in the sand below the ridge.

[Armalite_]

"The amour has made it ashore!" A soldier yelled. Spike stopped firing and looked over the sandbags. A sherman tank taking aim at his bunker. He looked back at Kitt. "KITT GET OUT!!!" Spike dove out of the bunker and into a imact crater. There was a boom in the distance followed by a large deffening explosion. Spike was sprayed with the blood of one of the soldiers operating the mortar while the other's legs were blown off and he landed next to Spike where he screamed in pain.

[KittKat chunky~]

Kitt had dived out of the bunker, several seconds after spike...  several seconds was all it took.... caught in the shrapnel and heat of the exploding bunker, it tore at him like tendrils of flame as he jumped and rolled... landing beside Spike he wiped a copious amount of blood from the side of his face and leg..... Swearing he loaded another round into the PTRS, and bringing the weapon up to his shoulder swung the barrel round to the Sherman. The first shot hit the armour plating and ricocheted, the second caught in the tracks sending a link flying, the third smashed one of the main drive wheels into smithereens... Grinding to a halt the main turret swiveled round, machinegun brought to bear against the foolhardy feline....
