"I beg your pardon?" Winston asked.

"My friend Jax left the army, so he's practically on the run like me."

"and you want to bring him here?" Karyn laughed. "That's really stupid, he could betray us."

"I trust him, and you should too."

Karyn sighed. "Fine."

Winston pulled Aria to the side, "If he kills anyone in my family, I'll kill both of you."

"OK, I understand." Aria said.

Gia looked into her father's eyes. "Please don't kill her."

Winston groaned. "He better not kill us all."

"Trust me, he won't." Aria reassured.

Gia grabbed Aria's arm and dragged her outside. "So, my daddy wants to know if you can use a bow?"

"Why didn't he ask me himself?" Aria asked.

"He didn't tell me why." Gia said.

"Well, Jax is more of an archer than I am." Aria laughed.

Gia began to walk back to the house.

"Hey Gia, tell your father that I'm going to go for a short walk, ok?"

Gia smiled back and went into the house.

Aria started down the dirt path. It was peaceful and there was nothing to disturb her.

The trees swayed in the wind, Aria thought of the rest of the world right now. How her brother's sacrifice had been the last thing that happened to Silvia, the only thing she ever knew was to kill. But now Aria was in charge, the kind, loving girl that Kelvin knew.

Aria's train of thought stopped when she heard footsteps. She pulled out her pistol (which she kept on her at all times when she left the house.) "Hello, who's there?"

"Silvia McCoy, this is the German army, you are under arrest for treason."

Aria fired towards the voice.

"She's armed, go!" Soldiers surrounded her instantly.

Aria looked around.

"Black Scarlet, do you copy." Jax's voice rang from her pocket. "Duck."

Aria bent down as Jax came out of nowhere and began to spray the soldiers with bullets from his gun.

Winston came from the house and tossed Aria her Hattori.

Aria charged towards a soldier who was distracted by Jax. She cut his arm off, turned around and stabbed him in the chest.

Winston hid behind a tree with his rifle at the ready. He shot the soldiers one by one.

Jax elbowed the officer in the face.

"Don't let them escape!" Jax yelled.

Aria hopped Infront of them. "Going somewhere?"

Aria woke up to the sound of yelling and screaming. "Mother!" She screamed

"Aria, get up." Her mother urged.

Aria got out of bed calmly. "What's going on?" Aria asked being the oblivious ten-year-old she was.

"Come on, we need to leave."

"Why?" Aria asked, still being the oblivious ten-year- old.

"Aria, as your mother I command you to leave."

something flew through the roof of the house and landed between Aria's feet.

"Aria, get out."

Aria listened and just as she got out, the house exploded.

Planes and soldiers destroyed everything in their path.

Aria ran with the crowd until a man with black hair and a type 4 rifle in his hand.

Aria, who was at the front stared at the man.

The man looked down at her, he said something in Japanese then said to Aria in a thick Asian accent "Where are your parents?"

"You killed them, you monster." Aria screamed and began to cry on the floor.

The man took pity on her and grabbed her hand. "I can give you freedom, if you let me."

Aria nodded not knowing what she was getting herself into.

"My name Akira Naramaru, and you?"

Aria didn't say a thing.

"maybe you'll feel better if we take a walk." Akira said sweetly.

Aria walked with Akira and learnt that the Japanese were working with more kids her age for a secret program to end the war.

Akira let it slip that they were working with the Nazi and before Aria could say another word, she was stuffed into a plane with twenty other kids.

"Hey, I'm Jaxon." One of the boys said.

Aria began to cry.

"It's ok, you'll be fine."

"You don't understand, my mother is dead, and I don't know if my brother and my father are alive." Aria snapped.

Jaxon didn't say anything after that.

The plane ride was quiet, nobody spoke a word.

Aria wondered what was going to happen. were they going to die, what program were the Japanese talking about?

Only time would tell. Aria had the rest of the plane ride to be herself, then she would become something else.
