Story: Strike witches ~Unleashed~ (chapter 14)

Waltrud stopped in front of the weight room as she listened to Kanno beat the hell out of the punching bag inside. She tried to smile as she knew Kanno was hurting badly and pretending nothing was wrong would only piss the Fusoian off.

“Hey Kanno!” The countess stormed in grinning as the Fuso girl didn’t even look over.

“I know that stuff they said sounds crazy, but I’m sure Nikka is ok.” Waltrud assured lightly as she watched Kanno strike the bag repeatedly, sweating like crazy.

“Come on, let’s grab a drink.” The brown-haired girl thumbed the door as the black-haired girl stopped punching and glared at her fellow “breaker.” witch.

“Why aren’t we out there looking for her? Why do we always have to WAIT!” Kanno round-house kicked the punching-bag as the hit ripped it in half, spraying sand everywhere. Waltrud gripped the angry girl in a tight hug as Kanno’s small form resisted instantly.

“Why Walt!!!” The Fuso girl screamed viciously as Waltrud squeezed her even more. Kanno began to loosen up in the Karlsland’s arms as the “countess” tilted her head back and wiped her tears away. The dirt blonde’s smile held for only a moment then turned to a dark frown, lips trembling as Kanno sobbed lightly, looking up into her greenish eyes.

“We’ll find her Kanno, I’ll follow you into the burning fires of hell to get Nikka back you know that! But we can’t be stupid!! I won’t lose you too!!!” Kanno wiped Waltrud’s tears this time as they embraced again. The two parted as they felt the raising heat of the moment. Karlsland’s and Fusoians were passion pilots and soldiers, so the bonds between them were tightly forged, even if they were from different countries. Their lips begged for one another, hoping to hold off the pain as a light knock came at the door.

“Shit!” The two girls pulled away from one another as they quietly wiped their eyes and cleared their faces.

“Kanno? Waltrud? Are you in here?” It was Aleksandra Pokryshkin pushing in the door as both girls turned back around, heartbreak in their eyes.

“Why didn’t you tell us?” Waltrud demanded sternly as Aleksandra was surprised at Waltrud’s tone, she expected it from Kanno, Waltrud was the cool-headed one of the three.

“I didn’t want you two to worry.” Pokryshkin defended herself as Kanno and Waltrud stood red-eyed and angry now.

“You should of have told us before hand, not hearing it like everyone else.” Waltrud continued callously as the polar bear girl now wiped her eyes.

“How do you think I feel? I couldn’t tell you! I was under orders and I didn’t need you two going berserk! Attention, now!” They both stared at their commander defiantly as they both suddenly came to attention and saluted, needing to hear only one thing.

“Gear up! We’re first squad, patrol in 15!” Aleksandra saluted back as both girls smiled, knowing they were first out. Aleka also knew the two girls would disobey and kill anyone or thing to save their comrade and she didn’t want it any other way.

“Now let’s get Nikka back!” Aleksandra turned and walked out as both Waltrud and Kanno quickly flanked her. If what was said was true, they were about to face a daunting challenge and that killing instinct would be needed, even used against their fellow pilots…

…And who better then the brave witches to lead the way.
