Even though he was physically not human anymore ... this was still his body. He woke up first.
So why the hell did the stupid German have to ruin it for him?
As soon as Rainer’s conciousness woke up, Anatoly was able to leaf through all of his memories as if it were a schoolbook. If only he had this sort of power back when he was in the Red Army ...
Do not go through my mind. Rainer had said.
That was the first sentence spoken between the twinned souls. And it certainly wouldn’t be the last.
Sharing a body with another soul when both were conscious proved difficult. Add the little detail about their first life ... namely that the two of them were on opposing sides of the second world war in their universe — Soviet and German — and of course, there was a disaster. It was a miracle they survived a night as a European mink. They had almost gotten eaten by a hawk. They had only been saved by a baby squirrel. It had fallen out of its nest and the hawk took it instead, since it was closer to its perch.
Seen worse. Rainer sighed in that rough German accent of his. Want to make bet? Anatoly sneered.
It did not take long for them to stumble into the Pitt’s borders. The European mink stood up on his hind legs and his nose twitched in the air. A group of animals lives here. Rainer sounded excited. Both of them wanted to find some way of freeing themselves from this cruel and unusual curse. Perhaps, in this different world, animals had sophisticated societies akin to humans. All they could do now was wait for something to happen. And hopefully a hawk would not scoop them up.
