Jackal's helmet visor hits the ground and shatters when it slips through his fingers to clutch the bullet hole in his side. He falls to his knees then sideways while clutching my leg.

"I'm sorry... Wraith..." He says through pained breaths. I shake my head 'I can't lose another brother in arms.' I hook the insides of my elbows under his armpits and start dragging him to cover. After I get the unconscious Ryad behind cover I stand and draw my Beretta M9 assault pistol customized to my needs and start headshotting the White Mask terrorists one by one. My left shoulder shoots back and I feel a slight pressure as I duck behind cover, I look over to see my shoulder oozing a crimson liquid. 'Blood' I realize as I look around and see Jordan looking at me with concern on his face.

"Get back to the mission," I say to him and he quickly gets up and shoots three White Masks then the room is silent except with gunshot echoes. Monika rushes to me and asks "Are you alright? That looks like it fuckin hurts like a motherfucker."

"Yeah, I'm fine, worry about Ryad." I tell her then over the radio I hear "All units report in." All I hear then is a chorus of radio checks. Someone smacks me upside the head and I get up then spin around to see the assailant that smacked me just to see Emmanuelle laughing silently to herself.

"The hell was that for?" I ask her angrily.

"It's your fault for not paying attention to your surroundings, bish." She gets out while caught in a laughing fit. I flip her the bird while chuckling myself when someone taps my shoulder turning around all I see is a massive fist coming towards my face. A split second later I feel a ton of pressure fly across the left side of my face causing me to stumble backward, instinct kicks in and I start to swing by then people held me, and whoever hit me back from each other.

"That is not what we do on a mission, Gaege and you know that!" Someone yells at me and I look up to who yelled at me who was Mike.

"What the fuck, man? What was that for?" Jordan says still holding me back.

"That was because he dropped his assault rifle and drew his sidearm with intent to kill, but his pistol doesn't have enough penetrative pow-" He starts to yell.

"Enough!" Eliza yells over everyone, "Mike is right you shouldn't have pulled out your pistol-"

"It's specified to my needs and would-" I start to shout.

"No, don't start Gaege, you know what you did was wrong but Mike you shouldn't have punched him in the first place. Once we get back to base you two are getting up bright and early then going for a nice and early jog." She states and both of us sigh and salute. A 'jog' in her terms is a 15 klick run in full tactical gear while she yells 'encouragement'.
