Night has fallen in Yakustk, that bone-chilling cold is so easy to make people fall asleep, yet it's midnight and there are still people awake, normally he hides in the woods to play at night but today, he had another mission of his own, which he knew he shouldn't do but his intuition told him that no one was safe anymore. He didn't think he would do this one day, but he was eavesdropping on the conversation of his superiors. Pressing his ear against the cold, frozen wall, he heard voices in that room:

-The situation is very tense, at this rate, Srednekolysmk will fall into enemy hands.

-I think we should send the cadet to battle tomorrow.

-Are you sure, should we notify them?

- Let them sleep, this may be their last night to get a good night's sleep, tomorrow morning call to gather and send to battle.

Well, that's clear, he was about to go to war, he felt his life was in danger but most of all he was worried about Natalya, his best friend. Suddenly a voice behind the wall interrupted his train of thought:

"It turns out there are people who don't need a good night's sleep."

-What are you talking about?

- I'm used to it, it's not the first time, Cairo Aslanov.

-Hmm, he found out

Without thinking, Cairo ran into the woods and disappeared into the night before the people in the room came out to check. Surrounded by darkness, snow at the feet, and snow on top:

-Nat delivered the mail in this deadly weather, it's not okay, it's not okay. The place where the war took place was half as cold as here, how could such thin uniforms keep warm and protect the body.

A 30-second pause:

- there is only one way....

your fur and that of the Aslanov family is extremely valuable because this family is being hunted and is on the verge of extinction, which has the ability to retain heat and resist strong damage like bullets or arrows, even radioactive. It became the safest material to protect people at this time and was also an important part of the Aslanov family members who played the role of protecting their body and keeping warm, covering up the biggest weakness of the Aslanov family. them, cold tolerance.

Thinking about that was enough, Cairo returned to his room, rummaged through his pocket, a trimmer and a military uniform at Natalya's bedside, and then quietly walked back into the forest late at night, the cold as Yakustk's flesh cut the flesh. more clearly, but inside he was making a reckless decision: to leave his natural protective shield to Nat. He knew well how low his tolerance to the cold was without it but for the sake of his comrades' long-term safety, he would do anything no matter what.

- Nat if I know I'm doing this, I'll blame myself for it........ but that doesn't matter anymore, your safety. we are above all.

Without hesitation, Cairo gripped the trimmer tightly and brought it close to his fur, trimming a line from head to toe, his hair falling with the snow, for the first time he could directly feel the horrible cold here. , his hair is getting thinner and thinner, he bit his lip to stop himself from screaming because of this deadly climate:
- Well, it seems like 12 years of cold showers has not helped, right?

Stab the javelin, you have to follow the javelin, after you hit it, you have to do it, he took a few more decisive cuts despite his body constantly shaking and his mouth starting to exhale white smoke. Finished, he quickly grabbed the Ushanka hat and scarf that covered his face, now only his tail was left with the hair he saw that it didn't need to be cut so left it to keep warm, he gathered the fur and brought it to a shop May there be a voice nearby:
-Is there still someone coming at night, what do you need?

-Hi, can we use these feathers to make an outfit similar to this one?

He showed Nat's uniform:

-Oh, for me, this is simple, we have never disappointed customers

-Good, so what's the price?
-Oh, this is about 2 million Rubles, can you come get it tomorrow - Um...can you come tonight?

-Then 3 million rubles, happy shop owner

Why are these so expensive, he worried.

- What about adding a mask like this with a fake tail made of synthetic nylon?

He was going to pretend like nothing happened...

-Then add 500 thousand rubles

-Is there any cheaper material?
-Artificial nylon is the cheapest

-Then take that one

- Then give me your full name and phone number to contact

-I'd say Cairo Aslanov, maybe they'll take all that fur-He thought

-Well, Cairo Nikolaev, and I'll be back in 30 minutes to sit and wait, so no need for a phone number

-Thank you for your support, I'm curious what this feather is?

"Sheep," he replied coldly, without hesitation, for that was the closest thing to the Aslanovs' fur.

Cairo's attitude makes the shop owner a little scared

- V. ..yes I'm going to work right now

He left and trimmed the tail feathers to sell to get money to pay the tailor.

- Luckily, my family's fur can be sold for a good price, knowing that I learned to sew a little better

Around 4:30 a.m., he took this new uniform and left it at Nat's bedside

-It's nothing too much but it's safer for you

Well, these nylons are just for the looks, they don't even keep warm but it's fine, it's not so good to be exposed.

Usually when going to military drills, cadets will have to get on the bus at 5 am to the battlefield. Although he didn't want to, he shook Nat up:

-Nat, Natalia! Wake up, sorry to call you and now but we have something important

She rubbed her eyes and sat up, yawning as she asked:

-Whoaaaaaaa, what's wrong Cairo?

He calmly said:

-The situation is that we are about to enter the war, I think you should have time to mentally prepare

She vaguely grabbed her glasses, but as soon as she heard the word war, she felt like she was stuffed with a cup of coffee. She quickly asked me:

-Huh? How do you know?!

-Yesterday I heard from my superiors that we are going to battle soon.

She suddenly looked at me with suspicion. You're dead, if she knew what you did yesterday, she'd die. But instead of asking, she glanced at his left arm, which was bandaged with white yesterday, and whispered:

-Ugh- no way. And if so, what do we do now? I haven't even recovered yet.

He didn't understand what the hell, knowing that someone was injured, they still made the decision to send the cadets to battle. He tried to be as normal as possible to reassure her:

-You should put on your military uniform and prepare to focus, there's nothing we can do.

-Haiz...that's right, because it's an order. As soon as she put her head through the collar, she was surprised- Eh, why is the military uniform so warm today?

-Must have been modified to suit the weather where the war took place

-That's right, the previous delivery made me an ice queen

She smiled and walked out but stopped when she was walking.

"What's wrong ?" He asked

Tepy also woke up, she looked at the bear sadly and said:

-Not to worry but...what if one of us dies?

He sighed.

-Injury or sacrifice is inevitable, we can only accept it, once we have chosen to be a soldier, the only thing we aim for is the country.

-That's right-She put on her familiar AK gun-But really if I have to sacrifice, choose a glorious death, I worry about those who stay... Because when we die, the battle still may not be over, the team will be short of two soldiers and the distance to victory is getting shorter and shorter-

In a firm voice, he replied:

-Just fight hard, you can rest assured that in this battle, only one of us will have to die or not die at all.

His words seemed to lift her spirits. She is excited:

-Okay! We'll try!

-Um, for the country

The colonel knocked on the door:

-Today we will move to the battlefield to get ready to fight, ask comrades to get ready and get on the car.

-Yes, Colonel!- The two shouted in unison

She slung her handbag and put the calorie on her head:

"Let's go." She pulled his hand

But instead of letting her pull, he pulled his hand back so she wouldn't find out he shaved. She was surprised:

-Why did you pull your hand back like that? Every time I pull your hand, do you ever pull away?

He hesitated:

-Oh, don't pay attention, I got an electric shock

Normally normal people wouldn't say anything, but with Nat, a person with a genius mind, it was impossible to ignore.

"Strange, the electric shock only happens when you or I wear a sweater" she asked

-I'm wearing wool gloves

At this point she began to doubt:

-I did shake hands with some cadets, they also wore gloves, but there was no response. Also I thought you didn't like wearing gloves and socks?

"I said I don't like wearing gloves, just socks, and electric shocks don't happen that often." He began to worry.

-If so...you prove it-She smirked-Remove the gloves.

"Don't you believe me Nat, what do you think I'm hiding from you ?" He said in a dangerously low voice.

She was silent but looked at him with eyes filled with suspicion. The two looked at each other like that for a minute when a glove flew straight at Nat's head. She held her head and looked out, the thrower was her sister VUSSR:

-Are you planning to let the team wait until tomorrow? Out quick!

-Tch, I'm leaving now!- She forgot to suspect him, ran out

-I owe you a thank you, Miss V-He thought to himself and ran after her
