"when you know,you know."
Lana Del Ray
Being in the military at a young age of 23 and as a woman was tough,but you know what's even tougher?Having complete bastards as your teammates.
Idiots.
Bastards.
Bullies.
Dickheads.
Did I mention idiots?
But thankfully,all that changed a year ago when I was invited to join the Task Force 141.I gladly joined,and all the people there are sweet!We have Laswell,she is a watcher at our missions and she gets all the information.John Price,the captain.The sweetest man alive.Sergeants Soap and Gaz,stupid boys(just joking,still love them).And lieutenant Simon Ghost Riley...literally the best friend I never had until now.Cold hearted,but it unfreezes then and there.And...general Shepherd...the only one that makes me loose my mind.
6:34 am.
"Fucking hell,I'm sooo sooo late!"I screamed as I struggled to make my slicked bun that I always wore.My clothes were all around the floor,my bed messy,my whole barrack a mess.Probably because of the work Shepherd flooded me with since I became the colonel of the task force.I dont have any time for myself
When i finally managed my bun,I put on my compression shirt which goes into a balaclava that only covered my mouth and nose.I always wore it,I never left my barrack without the balaclava.
You may wonder why...
Well...
A rough past is the answer.
A very rough one.
When I managed to get ready,it was already 6:45 and the meeting started 15 minutes ago.I was always late,never on time for anything.When I got my boots on,I left my barrack and started running to the office as fast as my short legs could run.
When I finally reached the door,I gently placed my hand on the handle.
1...
2...
3...
I counted in myself as I barged into the room.Everyone's attention fell to me.I firstly looked at the table,everyone was seated there,and Shepherd was the only one standing.He looked...pissed off.
"I'm so,so sorry that I'm late...I had to...uh...feed my K-9 unit!"I lied.I always did.And no one said anything about it.Talk about a good team.
"Well,sit.We didn't start yet.Pay attention today."Shepherd said while literally glaring at me.I just silently nodded,rolling my eyes at him but thankfully he didn't see it.
I walked over to the long meeting table and I sat down next to Ghost where I usually sat.
"Good morning Jane,starting the day off strong?"He teased.He knew I fell asleep.He always called me Jane because it irritated me.
"Good morning to you too,Siso."I joked.My little sister always calls him that,so i provoke him back.He just smirked,but i gave him the most devilish grin ever.Then,Shepherd started talking.I was excited to hear the news he had for us...
Are the new recruits arriving?Do we have a scouting mission?Oh,maybe he is taking us all on a well deserved trip?
My non realistic thoughts were broken by his harsh words.
"Tomorrow,another task force will be coming here to help us with our upcoming missions!We share the same enemy and they will be a good hand to use!"He said with a smile on his face.
'What the hell?' those words echoed in my mind,I was so not ready for this.I turned to look at Ghost,but he was already looking at me.I just gave him a look of confusion as Shepherd started talking again.
"Their name is KorTac..you probably heard for them before,and now...they are joining us!"He said with a soft smile on his face which made me want to throw up.
"We will be meeting in the mess hall tomorrow morning at 6 sharp!Don't be late!"As he said those words,everyone's eyes fell on me.I just rolled my eyes at them.
"Today you all are free,if you want you can use the gym,but no special training needed!"he said as he looked at all of us"Well,that is it for today!"He said as nodded to his own words and slowly made his way to the door.We were all still sitting at the desk.
"Another task force..?Why does he need them?"Gaz said to all of us.
"That is a good question.."Price nodded.The rest of us were just speechless.
"Do y'all wanna watch a movie at my barrack tonight?"Soap broke the silence between the 5 of us.
We all agreed that that was a sound plan.The rest of the day was pretty boring...but tomorrow would be a...rather exciting day...I could feel it.
