Anne was getting angry. Her hands shook slightly as she calmly gave her father his jacket back, before shrugging hers on herself, not bothering to do up the buttons of her blazer. In the background, as if played by an imaginary band, the faint notes [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwDvF0NtgdU]of a tune[/url] could be heard playing, as the otherwise diminutive woman seemed to, no, was actually, growing, until she was standing taller and in full military regalia, her breasts shrinking and stubble appearing on her face. Stepping forward, hard boots slamming against the floor, he stood over Serbia and physically restrained himself from grabbing this drunken, imbecelic fool by the collar and slamming him against his wall for the slight, "what my brother said was correct. You'd do well to remember who you're talking to old man. The time of your country is long past. [i]Accept that."[/i]

Stepping outside, a rifle now slung across his shoulder, he took a breath of the crisp air and pulled a packet of cigarettes out of his breast pocket, offering them to the rest of the party, before striking a match to light his own.  "There's a problem with the alliances," Samuel astutely said. "They're too fragile, and too likely to break apart. All it would take was for one small incident, and we'd all end up at each other's throats, as my father attempted to point out." He paused to take a drag on his cigarette, which despite the short amount of time that it had been in his hand, was already close to a stub. 

"I don't know about you, but I shall be preparing for war. If you find me and not Anne, don't talk to me." With that, he left, dropping his cigarette and squashing it under his boot, the crunch of gravel under his feet fading as the sound of a motorbike started up. Whilst Anne had arrived in a car, Samuel preferred a more practical mode of transportation, and it didn't take long before even that sound had vanished. After he was done driving, it was a short boat trip and he would be back home.
