January 2nd 1944, Majdnek Concentration camp Lublin, Poland
The night was dark at Majdnek. The lights were turned off early, and the only illumination came from the watch tower, his bright beams gleamed off the barbed which littled the walls and yard. Newfallen snow seemed to glow beneath the light.
Standing beside the infirmary, a lone figure added to the dim light, as he inhaled deeply the cigarette held loosly in his left hand. Its end flared when he inhaled, only to dim slowly as he released the smoke back into the air, adding a pinprick of light to the darkness.
Hans Shultz, vaunted recieved of the Iron cross, and general of the third reich had long vowed to quit this vile habit, but in the frigid colds of winter on the front, this alone game him the relief he needed. Inspite of the cold he stood tall, back straight, and uniform uncreased to a degree one generaly only saw in raw recruits. Most generals grew soft, and fat when in command, but Hans only seemed to grow sharper, as if honed ever more into the tool which his motherland demanded of him.
Even the planes of his face bespoke a certain coldness. His eyes were narrow, and an ice blue, while his nose was the thin, and well formed, a true mark of his aryan heritage. His lips were thin, and as he inhaled, his face rippled with the frown lines that accompanied his age. At 49 he possessed a body that was surperior to the average 30 year old, his salt and pepper hair the sole concession he made to time.
Alone in his thoughts, he flicked the cigarette from his mouth, and crushed it beneath his heel as he entered the building.
Ignoring the guards that waited on either side of the door, he seated himself in a stiff chair behind a heavy oak desk, and and spoke to the liutenant awaiting his command, as he opened a manilla folder before him, revealing the dossier of a young, half gypsie woman. The intial medical tests had looked promising, but Hans had dealt with failure enough times to want to see the her for himself. His careeer, and possibly his life were tied to the success of this mission.
"Bring in the next cantidate."
