The day 6 lost his will.

It was a slaughter, everyone was killed, 6 and the last agent on feild were the only ones left.

Agent:"6..you gotta- go.."

6:"no-no evac is here, you can still be saved- you- you can..-I'm not."

Agent:"(sharp Inhale) I am not (gck) long for this world, go. Live."

6:"I can't just leave you here! I'm not going to!"

The Agent handed 6 their gun, "please. Just...do it"

6 held the gun with shaking hands "i-... i-"

Agent:"heh- (coughing) can't go out without a smile- it's okay to be afraid but- (pained inhale) you gotta...do this man"

6 held the gun to the agents head, he couldn't look at what he was about to do.

6:"I'm sorry, enjoy you're time in heaven"

The gunshot rang.

6 threw the gun against the wall, he leaned into the dead agents chest and started crying.

Then, he looked into the sky and yelled at the top of his lungs.

He continued crying into the agents chest for several minutes, finally headed for the evac.

STATUS: B R O K E N

THE AGENCY: CLASSIFIED LOCATION.

The drop ship returned, they were expecting the whole team of 10 Agents on the ship, no one anticipated the outcome.

An extremely distraught and depressed 6 shoved past the staff who were waiting for the hoped full team to emerge, when questioned where everyone else was, he responded by punching through the marble statue right beside him.

He went straight to his quarters, chell was waiting for him.

Chell:"hey! There you are! How was-"

Chell was interrupted by 6 tightly embracing chell, slowly beginning to cry again.

6:"I couldn't! They all! It- it was just- they slaughtered them all!"

Chell:"woah woah calm down! Wha-"

6:"the fucking agency knew didn't they?! They sent unprepared initiates to a slaughter! What was their plan?! Why send all those initiates just to die?!"

6 began hyperventilating

6:"is this just some sick play to bring me down?! Is this their way of testing my limits?! By killing innocent children! Most of them were no older than 19! They slaughtered children chell!"

Chell forced 6's head into her shoulder, trying her best to calm him down.

Chell:"(shhh) slowdown bud, you told me enough, deep breath, I'm here...just let it out"

To this day, 6 has never forgiven the agency for what they did.

As his sorrowful, muffled cries and screams flowed from deep within, and the calming aura that chell desperately hoped would be enough for 6 clashed, the trauma burned into his skull nothing could ever free him from this haunting nightmare.
