Dead of the night

Chapter 1: The return

A vehicle, Camouflage green was driving back to Task force 141. Once it has arrived to the campsite everyone had looked up. They all realized who it was. Captain Price! He finally arrived home after his mission to Russia. He had left a month ago, he brought some soldiers with him on that mission. Sadly only a few returned home. Price had gotten out of the vehicle and held the door open for the soldiers as 17 solider's out of 25 were climbing out. They all had various expressions on them. They didn't know if the should be happy or sad that they all returned home after a long day of work. They had greeted Price At the gate as he walked through. They also welcomed the brave soldiers who were with him.

As Price walked behind the soldiers as they were greeted and guided to the Doctor. Price had stayed behind watching as his wounded soldiers went to get help. He looked at the ground happy to finally be back. A young man, about 6'0 tall, in all green and brown wearing a skull mask came walking behind Price. He placed a hand on his shoulder and said "You did good Captain, not only did u make it back alive but you also brought many survivors back with you." Price looked at him and smiled "Thanks Ghost. I appreciate the gratitude"

Ghost walked in-front of price but stopped. He turned around and looked at him. "Come on, Let's get you cleaned up and ready for the celebration" Price nodded and followed Ghost to the tent filled with the wounded soldiers that came back. They all looked at him. Through the silence you could hear the soldiers outside the tent speaking. "I can't believe Captain Price brought so many brave people to fight with,against the Russians" it was true, Captain Price brought the many strong, brave, outgoing soldiers with him to the Battle against the Russians.

Ghost smiled under his masked as he heard how heroic his captain was. Walking to one of the Doctors helping one of the wounded. He bent down to the doctors height and spoke, "The Captains here to be treated sir" the doctor whipped around to face Ghost who was bent over "Right away, Sir!" The doctor got up after stitching up the soldier he was helping and quickly sped walk to the Captain. Ghost was sweet and kind to his comrades but he was a emotionless soldier on the battle field. He could care less for his enemies all he cared about was his Captain.

Night falls fast. Everyone was celebrating the return of the soldiers. Drinking beer and hooraying. The soldiers who returned never expressed their true feelings they just enjoyed the day they returned just fine. Ghost and Captain price both standing around enjoying the celebration were chatting. Among the crowd of people, a short Women with blue hair, golden eyes came running to Price and Ghost. Out of breath all she could say was "Help me, Pleas-" before falling to the ground unconscious. Ghost and Price went into a panic.

Who was this young girl? Why was she here? Was she here to give away our position to the Russians? They couldn't trust her, they all looked confused at to why a young girl with Blue hair come running into their base. The only person who could answer that was the guard to keep a look out for enemies while others did their thing. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the young girl. Ghost looked at Price and then at the blue hair girl. "What do we do, Captain?" Ghost has said as he was kneeling down to the Girl unconscious on the ground. "We take her to Doctors and nurses" Ghost nodded and rolled the girl over onto her back. And he was putting his arm under her legs and under her shoulders. A small red and black symbol on the girls body appeared. Ghost looked at it and realized something about the girl.

Bringing the girl to the doctors he placed her on the bed and walked away towards price as the doctors did their thing. After about an hour Price and Ghost waited Impatiently for the young girl to wake up, but, she never did. The young girl was in a coma. They had yet to know who she was and why she was here. It was only a matter of time before she could wake up on her own.

Price spoke after quite sometime "Ghost I want you to keep an eye on her, when she wakes up tell me immediately" "Yes sir!" Ghost said. Price got up from where he was sitting and walked out of the tent. Everyone was standing their waiting for an answer. Price just gave them an nod and smiled.

The next morning, the young girl still hasn't awoken. This was worrying Ghost very much. He wanted her to wake up and ask about the symbol on her neck. He sat next to her with his hands cupped together waiting impatiently for her to awake.

Days went by and the blue hair girl was still unconscious. Ghost had sat next her waiting. He hasn't eaten or moved from his spot since price told him to keep an eye on her. After awhile Price walked in and saw that Ghost was malnourished from not eating or drinking. "It's been a week and nothing has changed" Price spoke softly while looking at the young girl. "Somethings gotta be wrong. She should have woken up by now" Ghost looked at the girl sad. Price noticed this but didn't say a word he just left.
