It was a beautiful day…to the small German Nazi squad at least. After a raid with the infamous "Jew Hunter" they successfully destroyed a family of 10, with 2 separate people being the ones who were hiding the…rats. Actually, they didn't completely destroy the whole family. One was sitting in the prisoners' car, shaking with fear. Probably due to the fact that a black clothed sack covered her entire head or the fact that she witnessed her family's death. They didn't really care. They just cared that Hans Landa was in a very merciful mood and decided to let her live just a little while longer. One out of the two German soldiers manning the car looked down at their "little Mouse" (a type of mock nickname that Hans Landa gave it). He put a hand on the prisoners' knee, causing the poor, filthy thing to flinch. Then looked at his fellow comrade, smiling.

"Gut da Oberst Hans Landa solch eine großzügige Stimmung war, warum nicht haben wir ein Bit des Spaßes?" (Well, since Colonel Hans Landa was such a generous mood, why don't we have a bit of fun?)

The other soldier looked at him sternly, "Wir reiten durch das Holz. Nicht erinnern Sie sich an die Gerüchte?" (We are riding through the woods. Don't you remember the rumors?)

His friend rolled his eyes and moved his hand up the young prisoner's leg, he leaned down so that his face was next to her neck.

"Gerüchte sind gerade Gerüchte. Nicht ist das nach rechts, kleine Ratte?" (Rumors are rumors. Isn't that right, little rat?)

She girl didn't know what to say, and before she could even hear the other soldier's reply…it seemed like thousands of gunshots were being fired outside of the car.

"Scheiße! Henrick!" (Shit, Henrick!) The soldier's companion whom he called "Henrick" had absolutely no time to take cover. Thousands of bullets mutilated his chest and neck area. Once he saw his friend dead, the lone Nazi grabbed the girls' leg and pulled her onto the ground with him, causing the girl to hit floor hard and start crying. The Nazi firmly covered her mouth and started beating her.

"Halt die Schnauze! Halt die Schnauze, Sie Stück Mist!" (Shut up! Shut up, you stupid piece of crap!) As soon as the shooting noises stopped, however, he stopped as well, shaking just like the young prisoner did before.

"Wicki, check that there car. Make sure there ain't anybody in it. Boys, claim your scalps from the front over here." A foreign voice echoed outside. It was English, and had a heavy…accent of some sorts. The soldier took Henrick's small pistol, picked up the girl under her arms and ran outside with the pistol pointed at the girl's head.

"Ich bin lebendig! Trieb und sie gehören zu mir!" (I'm alive! Shoot, and she goes with me!) The girl was utterly silent now. She had no idea what to do. With the sack over the head, she couldn't see anything…she could only help but wonder why the mean soldier was scared.

The soldier on the other hand, had every right to be scared. Once his eyes became adjusted to the light and everything stopped moving, he saw them standing all around him. Stern, hateful looks casted down upon him and he knew why. He just didn't care with that part. A rather big and tall man with a small mustache stepped towards him from his right side.

"Speak English?" The soldier shook his head. "Nein." He knew that had to be the "Apache" man. The Apache looked over at car where Wicki was standing and motioned him to come and translate.

"Ask him his name. Then tell him to put the girl down. He puts the girl down an' answers a few questions for us, we'll let 'im go." Wicki nodded and put his full attention to the soldier. Other than the talking, everything else was eerily quiet.

"Was its Ihr Name?" (What's your name?)

"Mein Name ist Alderic." (My name is Alderic)

"Setzen Sie das Mädchen unten." (Put the girl down)

"Warum?" (Why?) Alderic just pressed the barrel of the gun harder against the girls' head.

"Sie setzten sie niederwerfen, beantworten einige Fragen für uns und uns lassen Sie gehen." (You put her down, answer a few questions for us, and we'll let you go.) Alderic grimaced and laughed through clenched teach.

"Nein, nicht ohne dieses Kennzeichen… weiß ich! Ich würde eher sterben, als dieses verdammte Kennzeichen haben Sie-" (No, not without that mark…I know! I'd rather die than have that fucking mark-)

A gunshot filled the tense air, shooting through Alderic's heart and causing him to fall down with the girl still in his arms. Everyone was startled and looked around to see who fired that shot…all except for Rained.

"DAMNIT Stiglitz, what the fuck was that for?" When all of the talking was going on, everyone's attention was on the girl and Alderic. Hugo, already being on the far left side of everyone, took this opportunity to sneak around and give the young Nazi a sneak attack.

"If that fucking girl is down, yer gonna owe me two hundred scalps, you hear me?"

"He wanted to die, not her." Stigiltz replied with a straight face. Aldo hung his head in frustration, and then walked slowly up to the two bodies. He reached out and pulled the sack off of her head. Surprisingly, she was alive. Her eyes were shut tight and (despite her mouth being shut tight as well) were heavily breathing. Her hair was plastered and a bit greasy, but a brown color. Grime, blood, and bruises were covering the rest of her body. She couldn't be no more than 6…7 years old.

"Hey…hey, it's alrigh'. Yer with the Basterds, everything's gonna be okay." The young girl slowed down her breathing, and slowly opened her eyes. She only saw a dark red liquid on the ground, a color she knew too well.

"Ich wünsche meine Mama." (I want my mommy)

"What the…was that German?" Donny lifted his eyes in surprise, and even raised his bat a little bit. The girl finally sat up and looked around, then started sobbing.

"Ich-Ich(I wünsche meine Mama." (I-I want my mommy)

Frankly, Aldo didn't know what to do. He looked around at his soldiers, his eyes almost pleading for help. Except what he got were looks of shocked faces and he knew immediately what they all were thinking. What the hell was a young, German girl doing in Nazi-occupied France?


Well? What do you think? I know that the translation is probably bad, but hey it's a translator, what would you expect? Anyways, please review and you won't get scalped! (Jk, jk, but please review?)
