Without great solitude no serious work is possible.

Walking out of the dark shipping container that I was trapped in for hours was a relief, but also a risk of death. I have no guns, no knifes, nothing. The only weapons I have is my fists and skills that is tore beneath my skin, ready to fight any moment. I sneak around the property that has multiple watching decks.
The hold guards to watch over the area. My stomach sinks. I decide to hide behind the shipping container and hope that the team gets here soon, or else I might have some company
It's not to long before I hear the man that's locked in the container start groaning from pain *shit* I think to myself. The groans quickly turn in to footsteps, and the panicking sound of the lock rattling, followed by screaming. "Fuck" I whisper. This ain't good
I hear fast footsteps of the guards some closer to the container to investigate. I stay hiding quietly behind the container hoping that they don't check
Guard-1: what the hell happened?
"The gir- the girl. That motherfucker"
Guard-2: how the hell did she get away
"SHES WITH THE FUCKING TASK FORCE 141 WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK HAPPENED" the man try's to say as loud as he can with his jaw remaining broken
Guard-1 you fucking bastard. How the hell did she get away? She's a woman
"Stop running your damn mouth in help me"
They help the man and don't waste their time looking for me. I let out a breath in thankfulness and I hear a truck in the distance. I look out to see that the truck isn't for them, its Alejandro and the rest of the team
(I recommend putting on Imagine dragons-believer) while reading it, I guarantee you, it's worth it)
They rush out the truck with their guns, spotting the men. They spot my team and start firing, they take cover behind the truck

"DOWN, DOWN. GHOST, GO AROUND THE BUILDING AND LOCATE ADIRA" Alejandro shouts
"Don't have to tell me twice" Ghost kills to of the men with his throwing knife and runs across the property without being spotted. He comes across a beige shipping container and his heart sinks

"GAZ, ON YOUR LEFT"
Gaz shoots a guard sneaking from behind him, taking his grenades
"TOP DECK, ILL TAKE THE LEFT, YOU SNIPE RIGHT" Price shouts at Soap as he spots two snipers
"One, two, three" Soap and Price kill both men
"Four more rowed up against the bush, she bullets will go through. Take line up, we'll shoot them all" Price says

"Bloody hell" I say as I rush over to the shipping container. As I go to unlock it, Someone comes around the container instead
I raise my gun, only to see its Adira. I drop my gun and immediately pull her back behind the container
I freeze, looking into her eyes. This is the moment we're all the anger, stress, worries, flowed right out of my body. She was her, and I was too
"Ghost" she says as her eyes light up.
unexpectedly, she wraps her arms around me burying her head into my chest as tears drip from her eyes
I wrap my arms around her, resting my head against hers
"You scared the shit out of me" I say as I lightly smile beneath my mask
"I'm okay...I'm okay" she says
Her breathing calms down as she lifts her head back up. She stares deeply into my eyes. She slowly brings her finger tips to the bottom of my mask, holding them there as if she's asking to slide it up. So she does, but just over my lips. She moves in, but Alejandro comes around the corner. I quickly pull my mask down and back up from her
"Adira, your alright" he says as he takes her into a tight hug. The rest comes out, sighing out of relief and we lead her to the car
