Night had already fallen, and the stars were out.
The rain fell about them in great surges, an insistent electric thrum that blanketed the forest. Surrounded by the gnarled giants, dark and black in the dimness of the dying dusk, in moments brightly illuminated, ghostly silhouettes starkly painted against the fiery white light of exploding lightning, stand the two men, the Kommandant and the Fated, motionless in the heart of darkness, thronged by silent watchers.
The soldiers had deliberated long. They were angry, and united, unanimous in their desire to kill, tonight when the Kommandant had come. There was no hesitation when they named their target: Karl Dunst. The traitor, they whispered amongst themselves, the turncoat. They spat at him as he was drawn out of the crowd, into the cold open. He shivered, drew his coat tight around him, as the Kommandant unholstered his revolver with a muffled click from within his jacket.
And there they stood, facing each other. The others had quietened, then begun moving, fidgeting out of nervousness in the suddenly still air, then stopped, frozen, as the cold emanated from the two in the middle of the clearing. They gazed upon one another in silence.
Here they still stand, timeless, motionless. The unceasing curtains of rain buffet them both, and drench the watchers - soon, they shiver, too cold, too wet. The pair remains - resolute, indomitable.
Then, as if he had enough, Karl lowers his gaze, then shuts his eyes. The air cracks as a single shot is loosened, and he falls to the ground.
Before the Kommandant can say the word, the others come toward the body to search it - he watches them in silence. Triumphantly, one of them takes out a Soviet passport and papers, as well as a handful of small pages of notes in cryptic, unreadable Cyrillic. The Kommandant, approaching them now, takes the passport and papers and leafs through them. After staring for several moments at a page in the passport, he holds it up in the air.
“Good work. We have killed a spy. This passport is for Nikolai Ivanovich Kuznetsov.”
“Now, retire to your tents for the night. We’ll begin anew tomorrow.” He looks them over for a while before walking off, sheltering himself from the rain under the wide lapels of his trenchcoat.
Karl “zombie urist” Dunst was lynched! He was a
Soviet Mastermind.
The Night will end Monday, 8PM GMT.
