A/n-hehehehe I'm backkkkk , enjoy the chapter :)

"Wake up."
A loud banging noise erupted from the other side of your door causing you to jolt out of your sleep and look around. You yawned and quickly stretched before kicking the blankets off you and you got up and unlocked your door to be met with a familiar tall skull mask man. You had a tired annoyed look on your face but ghost wasn't fazed by your annoyance one bit.
" get ready , I'll be waiting so hurry your ass up"
Ghost spoke in a gentle get firm tone as he leaned against the wall waiting for you to do something.

" it's the crack of fucking ass man give me a damn minute."
You muttered triedly as you closed the door and stepped back into your room going toward your closet and grabbing a pair of cargo pants and socks along with your boots that lay under the shelf near your vest. You took off your shorts that you slept with last night and you folded them neatly and placed them on your bed. As you went to put on your cargos you heard more banging on your door.

"Dusk hurry up, we don't have all bloody day."
Ghosts voice boom throughout the hallway from behind your door.
" give me a damn minute to put on my pants jackass"
You shouted loud enough for him to hear on the other side as you put on your pants quickly and you threw on your socks and the put on your boots, tiring them as quickly as you could.

You didn't need to change your shirt since you were going to wear the one you slept with last night since it wasn't a big deal and as you finished changing you finally got up and brushed yourself off and you made your way into the bathroom and grabbed the toothbrush that was with the toilet trees and you put some toothpaste on your brush and quickly brushed your teeth.

More banging could be heard from your door but you ignored it and finish what you had to do before rinsing  your mouth out and setting your room brush on the sink ledge and you rushed out of the bathroom and you made your way to your door and opened it to still see ghost standing there and you gave him a look.

"No need to bang so loud and wake up the fucking dead yknow."
You huffed and crossed your arms and looked up at ghost. Ghost wore a black hoodie with blue jeans and his Ususl skull mask. His arms lay down at his side as he looked at you.
" can't wake the dead if they're already up."
Ghost matched your tone but it was almost like he held a smirk behind his mask.
You shook your head and you sighed before following ghost as he walked down the hallway and into the rec room.

"What's on today's agenda that you had to hang on my door like you were doing a coke bust?"
You looked up at Ghost who kept his eyes ahead as he opened and walked into the rec room. You followed behind in suit waiting for an answer and he turned to you for a moment and looked down at you.

As you entered the rec room you noticed a small table with a few chairs and a decent sized fridge and a trash bin next to it with a few cabinets above head. The room was dimly lit just like the rest of the place , giving off the old used up military vibe but you also saw soap drinking coffee.
" like I said yesterday if you were paying attention, you will be training with me today"
Ghost said bluntly before handing you a gray package that read MRE on it from the cabinet. You took the package and you looked it over and you gave ghost a confused look as you took a seat in one of the chairs next to soap.

"You givin her the ol PT treatment aye L.T?"
Soap smirked as he took a sip of his coffee and ghost sighed and turned away from you and him.
"It's a MRE , now eat."
He muttered.
You shrugged and opened the grey packing to find some crackers and peanut butter spread and some other items that were stale. You gave ghost a sort of disgusted look and you looked back at your food and then him.
" this shit looks like it's been through the trenches what the hell..."
You say in a hushed disgusted tone as you sniffed one of the crackers.
" either you eat or you don't , not my problem."
Ghost explained and soap let off a chuckle.

It's better than nothing.

You quietly munched on the stale crackers and ate whatever was given to you in the pack and you left whatever you didn't eat. You thought for a moment and even you knew this was better than what you used to eat. It was better than eating scraps out of the trash and whatever you used to eat. Some days you didn't eat at all but now this was luxury to you and you knew that.
You finished eating and threw the packing into the trash bin next to the fridge and you looked up at ghost intently.

" Follow me , keep up and stay close."
Ghost turned on his heel and pulled open the rec room door and left down the hallway with you following behind him like a lost puppy.
" bye soap"
You say quickly as you left.
'' see ya soon kid.''
Soap said as he sipped his coffee still and stood in the rec room.
as  You looked around trying to take note of what and where everything was and you saw a door and staircase that led all the way up to something , you assumed it was the roof so you took a mental note as you kept looking around.
After a little bit of walking down the dimly lit dusty hallways ghost came to a halt , causing you to bump into his back for a moment.

You stepped back and he gave you a look before looking at the door and opening it.
" This is where we will be training."
He spoke as he walked inside.
You followed and looked to see a few black mats on the floor along with other workout equipment including a water fountain on the wall.
"So am I getting my ass dropped today or what."
You say sarcastically as you step onto the mat along with ghost.
"Quit your yapping and show me what you know dusk."
Ghosts deep British accent came out more pronounced as his tone grew louder.

"Alright"
You said as you got into a fighting stance and ghost did the same.
You went to throw a punch but you missed as ghost swiftly moved out the way. Undeterred you try again but your timing is off and ghost easily blocks your punches and he twisted your arm and you winced in pain as he did so and he pushed you back before letting go. You went to kick but ghost kicked your other leg causing you to fall harshly on the mat.
'' your dead.''
Ghost says as he watches you get up again.
'' thanks for clarifying..''
You shot a glare at him as you brushed yourself off.
You remembered some of your training with rex and a light went off in your mind.

You got into a ready position again and you decided to go at him , you made it seem like you were about to go for a punch but instead you pulled back and went to kick him again. Ghost quickly grabbed your leg and pulled you from off your feet causing you to fall again.

Your dead.

"How the hell..."
You muttered as you stood up again.
"Been here for years , know too much. Your using shadow training tactics , not surprised since your with them."
Ghost says firmly.
"We will sit here all day till you manage to kick me down so get off your ass and get ready."

Your fight isn't in sight but you know it wil take long till you get it right.
