Private Bainbridge: Damn this Anatolian winter. I know we're enemies and all, but did they really have to be so cruel to empty the wine cellars before skipping town? God knows I could use some bubbly ale to keep me warm...
Lieutenant Harper: So you'd rather be out fighting on the frontlines? I'd sign your transfer papers right now if it shuts you up once and for all. Stop yapping and stay sharp.
Private Bainbridge: Sorry sir. Whoah, there's a rider approaching!
Lieutenant Harper: Hold it right there lad, state your business
The rider looks up from the handlebars of his bike, his face flush from exhaustion.
Corporal Lincoln: Sir, you're a sight for sore eyes. How far are we from Saint-Alexandre?
Lieutenant Harper: Saint-Alexandre? That's at least 20 miles West! You won't be getting anywhere near there on that bicycle of yours, especially not at this time of day. Who even are you?
Corporal Lincoln: Aide de-camp to Brigadier Ashby, sir. I have with me classified intel that I need to deliver by tomorrow.
Lieutenant Harper: Tell you what lad, there's a resupply convoy arriving tomorrow afternoon. You can spend the night here and hitch a ride with them tomorrow.
Corporal Lincoln: Thank you sir. I was harassed by some Anatolian skirmishers, though I managed to shake them off.
Lieutenant Harper: Hmm, let's hope they don't come anywhere here, you're safe with us though.
The next morning...
Lieutenant Harper: Corporal... corporal! Wake up!
Corporal Lincoln: Wha...mornin' sir. What a beautiful day isn't it?
Lieutenant Harper: You tell me. Those Anatolians that attacked you yesterday, sure they weren't following you?
Corporal Lincoln: Positive sir, I was able to escape them and ride off undetected.
Lieutenant Harper: Uh huh, then what's that out there?
The lieutenant pointed his finger out the window, revealing two squads of Anatolian conscripts amassing on the edge of town.
Corporal Lincoln: Oh shhhiteeee.
