Growing Aknew

Lone Wolf

    Price asked me to set out on mission, he advised me to go alone to avoid getting caught. The mission was to steal the enemies new weapon. Its said to cause mass destruction on anything that it is set on. Can't be having that in the wrong hands now can we?

    I was dropped a few miles from my destination, all the while being told to be cautious. I don't understand why I'd have to be careful, I'm the best on the fucking team.

    I made it past multiple guard points with ease to a hidden opening. I quickly observed the inside before stepping in. It looked just like a laboratory mixed with asylum. There was padding on some walls and broken light panels. You'd think that they'd have a better base than this considering what they're holding in here.

    Standing against a wall I hear a few soldiers talking about this said weapon. Saying that they wished they were in separate labs so that they could actually be safe, they said that despite the protocols they have they will never be safe from it. Made no sense to me. What is this damn weapon? Why does it have men shaking in their boots?

    I finally found information on the area it was located in, sneaking past packs of guards. I eventually got to the door to realize it had an eye recognition inorder to get in. I turned to see I was spotted by a boggie, they however weren't able to live very long to tell the tale. I ripped out an eye and put it to the security door, watching it slowly open I see a group of scientists surrounding a table.

    They all saw me and went to go press an alarm, shot all of them in the temple with my suppressed pistol. I slowly walked in, pushing one of the scientists corpses off some files sprawled around the desk. Looking over the files I come to find out, the weapon is a human being. Tortured into listening to every whim of its "owner". I read more only to see that it can barely recognize the difference between enemy and ally. What a good cherry to have on the top.

    I grabbed the files and put them in my bag. "Found the files on the weapon." I relayed to Price.

    "That's great Ghost." He responded. "Now find the weapon and get out of there."

    "Copy that." I said, turning to a giant metal door with the word caution. Looking in the window I see a woman sitting in the middle of the room. I pull out my pistol, having it on the ready. Opening the door I knock on it to get her attention.

    She turned to look at me. I aim the gun at her and motion for her to get up. "You're coming with me." I said, cold and sturn. I glared as she stands up. I tense, realizing that she's completely naked.

    "Mask," she said, walking towards me only to look up and say "the skull mask." She embraced me, squishing herself against me. Stunned and confused on what the bloody hell was happening. It gently set a hand on her head. "Safe?" She muttered weakly.

    "Ghost?" Price questioned, "Ghost are you there?" I decided to ignore him, looking down at her. I only see her empty, hope filled eyes staring into mine.

    "Am I safe now?" She questioned, her voice breaking. I only stare in response. I slowly took off my cloak and wrapped in around her, turning around and getting down so she could get on my back.

    "Get on." I said quietly. She got on and I stood slowly, adjusting so she's comfortable. I relay, "Got the package, Captian."

    "Good work, now head out to pick up." He said, with a happier tone in his voice.

    I turned quickly to see a massive amount of boggies, ready to fire. I ducked as they all shot. I look around the room only to see a window open. I waited for a opening then quickly ran and jumped out. I almost started rolling down until I caught my balance. Sliding down the massive declining hill, I hear multiple enemy units yelling for back up.

    I grumble as I quickly jump over a river using the momentum of the slide, I started to run as fast as I could. I made it to a quad, climbing on and pulling the girls leg over my hip. "Lean when I lean." I demanded as I started it. I bent forward slightly as I started to speed off. Listening as enemy men shout and scream as I get away.

    Still looking forward, I feel the girl grip onto my vest. Driving with one hand, I gently put my hand over hers. "Almost there doll, don't worry!" I yelled, leaning and making a turn. She leaned with me and stayed close. I could feel her bring her legs closer in, shivering from the cold wind hitting her bare skin.

    I drift the quad into parking in, all the while getting off and picking up the girl as it parked. Walking over to the helicopter calmly, ignoring the uproar approaching behind me. Setting her on an empty seat, buckling her in I get on then grab a launcher. Taking aim and getting into the proper stance. I shoot a rocket into the mass of men. Watching all their body parts separate and explode into a frenzy.

    It sorta reminded me of those things that have candy in them and you have to break it open to get it. Staring at the bloodied mess as the helicopter takes off, I turn to look at the girl. Her eyes heavy, lips turning blue, and shaking like a leaf. I go over to her, take a seat and grab a makeshift blanket and wrap it around her. I buckle in and set the back of my head against the head rest.

    Everything is going according to plan.
