2 weeks later from last chapter

It had been two weeks since the ambush and we hadn't gotten anywhere with who these people might be. I talked to Meghan but she didn't really have anything useful either. Dom woke up and his eye was fine, he just had to wear an eyepatch for some time. The Germans made me a gift basket as a thank you with all sorts of things from Germany and Denmark in it, including gummies... For obvious reasons I had to hide them from Nøkk if I wanted any for myself.

I was currently on my way to the cafeteria because Harry had called all operators down there for an announcement. I walked in and sat down among some of the others and heard Jordan, whose codename was Thermite. Ask James "so you can't own any guns in the UK right?" James, without looking at Jordan, calmly answered "shanking is our culture" The cafeteria went quiet as Harry walked in and up on the stage "thank you all for being here on such short notice. I am here to inform you that the White mask threat has become even greater. As we all know the masks have gathered some new playmates. These new folks are highly trained which leads us to believe that they are former spec ops. Therefore I have made an agreement with Nighthaven to work together with us-" the whole cafeteria exploded in protest "are you mad!" "We can't trust them" "they only care about money" Harry just stood there for a minute before he calmly and with a stern tone said  "I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was done talking" they all mumbled their apologies and Harry continued "now as I was saying, we are going to work with Nighthaven but not as close as you might think. Nighthaven will stay at their own HQ while Rainbow does the same. We will share Intel and perhaps do joint operations with them if we are to catch these new elite masks faster. As per request by Kali, there is to be a liaison between Nighthaven and Rainbow, the liaison will stay at Nighthaven HQ and be a middleman between the two and I need a volunteer." One could hear a needle drop. I, being the one who didn't think that Nighthaven was all bad, did what all the others wouldn't "I'll do it" everyone looked at me, some with shock and surprise, some with pity, and some with suspicion "thank you Mads, that's big of you, I'm sure you will do a great job. You leave in two days. With that said I wish you all well, dismissed" I got up from my seat and went for my morning run and some weight lifting since I had lost some muscle from my two weeks of being injured.

I was running around the track when I saw Ela get onto the track, wonder if she still has it out for me. We locked eyes and she didn't seem too happy to see me, guess that answers my question then. She started running and she was hauling ass. Me being the petty one here, wouldn't let her pass me and I started running faster and faster, she ain't gonna pass me, I'm gonna pass her. I began putting some distance between Ela and I. Some operators were watching, probably wondering why we were sprinting around the track like there was no tomorrow. I was closing in on Ela and she was looking over her shoulder every third second. she gave it her everything but it wasn't enough. I slowly passed her "on your left" she let out a frustrated groan filled with malice as I continued running my last lap. 

I finished and went lifting, nothing too big but still up there. Alex came up to me with a concerned look on his face "you look troubled my friend. What's on your mind" Alex shifted lightly "comrade are you sure it's a good idea to go to Nighthaven, if something happens we won't be there to have your back" I sighed "why is it that all of you are so worried about them backstabbing us or whatever it is your afraid of?" He lifted the weight I was using and set it aside "look Mads, these people care more about money than each other, they think that the sims we do here are just a game. Last year Nighthaven participated in a tournament and it didn't end well. Kali, the CO of Nighthaven was on teams with Eliza, they won but the way they did it was wrong. Kali used Eliza as bait to lure out the last enemy. The enemy came out and Kali 'killed' the enemy but also grazed Eliza's ear. So Kali got them the win the wrong way, there is no telling what she will do to you to achieve victory if it comes down to it" This Kali chick sounded like a lady with some interesting viewpoints, but not something I was going to really worry about. It was one thing to play dirty in a simulation, it was another to do it on the field. "Well I'll keep that in mind Alex, I appreciate your concern but this is happening whether you all like it or not" I reached over and picked up the weight again. Alex sighed "very well comrade" he walked away and out of the gym. I did a couple more sets before going to the dorm.
