The Seventh U.S. Army's ships plunged relentlessly towards the coast of Sicily, their hulls cutting through the tumultuous waves like knives through butter. The skies above the Allied fleet roiled with the remaining jet fighters of the Italian and Axis Powers, their engines screaming like a swarm of enraged hornets, poised to unleash their deadly stingers upon the unsuspecting vessels below.

Lorenzo left the mess hall of the British Army, a wry grin tugged at his lips as he thought about the Shelby brothers. He never expected to find such suspicious minds even in the middle of a war, let alone among his own allies. The Shelby brothers' paranoia about his exceptional physique and performance during training drills had been amusing. Thankfully, they hadn't bothered him again after that day.

"Was this really necessary, Mom?" he asked, his voice laced with resignation.
Tomoko's expression softened, but her words were firm. "I'm afraid so, dear. You must look presentable for your fiancé." She addressed the group, "Please, make my son look his best."

To throw off the scent, they placed dead rats and a cat they had found earlier two feet down before finally filling the hole. The strong smell of the decomposing animals would mask the scent o...
