Nation 10 - Occupied France
Prologue 10
The tour guide led the way through the underground passage. He only had one tourist but the man paid good money and he didn't turn down a wealthy customer. The guide explained the history of the village and the purpose of the tunnel for the resistance fighters. The tourist then pointed to a section that was sealed off with tape.
"Where does that lead to?" asked the man.
"It's off limits," replied the guide. As he was about to continue the tour, he felt something pressed against his back. "What? What are you doing?"
"Tell me what's inside," said the man calmly.
"It's not fully excavated yet. Some parts of the tunnel collapsed over the years. Please don't ki-"
A muffled gunshot echoed in the tunnels. To an untrained ear, it sounded no different from a cough. The man caught the corpse in mid-flight and dragged it to a dark corner of the tunnel. He then entered the section declared off limit and pulled out a small metal detector.
"I could only hope they are correct," muttered the man as he worked.
A quick scan of the tunnel confirmed what the guide was saying. Parts of it collapsed onto itself which left only a small area for the man to work with. Because he entered with a guide, the man couldn't exactly bring a shovel. He swept his metal detector in a back and forth motion not anticipating success. Few minutes later, his detector needle went off. The man went digging at once and, moments later, found what he came for. He wiped off the dirt before tucking the item into his pocket. His job was complete.
Note: Borders are only meant to give a rough idea so it lacks accuracy.
Our tenth nation will be France. The starting date is August 24, 1944. You are a French resistance fighter hiding in the village of Maillé. You are slightly wounded and have reasons to believe the German soldiers are on a lookout for you. You know not who is your friend and enemy in the small village which complicates the situation further. Little did you know, the enemy had other plans for the village. Unknown to you, a great tragedy is about to befall on Maillé. Two options are available to you. You can either flee on foot hoping you can escape to a safe location or you can remain behind and face the terror that also await the villagers. Of course, you must take into consideration the letter you hold that could change the course of the war.
