The flashbacks from around a year ago were disturbed by Shepherd since he started talking to us.My eyes were still concentrated on the tall man in front of me.He was looking at me with those piercing,gorgeous blue eyes.

"Price,Charly,step forward to me."Shepherd ordered.I took a quick glance at Price before we both walked to the front.

"Okay,this is Captain John Price,on the missions he will tell you all what to do,got it?"Shepherd said.
"Got it,sir."The KorTac members said in sync,but his voice stood out to me.The masculine,deep voice with an Austrian accent...pure perfection.

"And this lovely lady here is Charlotte Jane Lopez,the colonel.She is the one that gives you guys the instructions." I just nodded at the new members.I caught König looking at me once again.The blue eyes...there is something about them that makes my blood boil,in a good way.

"You all are dismissed now,141;you will show them around.By roles,of course."Great,that meant that I had to show König around.

"Go on,introduce yourselves!"Shepherd said to us.We then walked over to the KorTac members.I was walking slowly,like something made me slow down.The adrenaline,the excitement and nervousness all mixed together at once,creating an electric shake that made me walk slower.Suddenly I saw König walking over to me...great.

"Well,hello colonel,nice to meet you."He said to me as he extended his arm for a handshake.I placed my hand in his and shook it
"Hello,you can call me Charly,no need for formal names."I said as I broke the handshake first.
"Well Charly,you can call me König.I believe we have met before,but im not sure when...do you remember?"

Oh...

So he doesn't remember.

Or he does.

Maybe he is acting stupid?

'Such a pretty face...what a shame.'

Snap out of it Charly!I was literally yelling at myself from the inside.The scar he left me was visible,even though my mask covered half of it,you could see it on my temple and my cheek.

"I'm not sure,I don't think we have met before."I lied.I obviously had to since we would be teammates now.
"Well,shall I begin the tour?"I asked him with a smile,I mean,he couldn't see it...but my eyes wrinkled

"Sure,anytime you're ready."He said and at his words I nodded and began walking.We left the mess hall without saying a word to anyone else.
I walked over to the hall that led to his and my office.I was walking in front of him,but I felt his taller and larger frame behind me.My blood boiled again,a weird sensation in my chest.

"So,for how long have you been in 141?"He asked.A shiver was sent down my spine at his voice,an comfortable warm sensation in my lungs,my heart beating like hell.I slowed my walking so that I was walking next to him.

"A year ago.How about you?"I asked.
"I joined KorTac when I was only 19.I volunteered at the Austrian army when I was 17.I wanted to be an recon sniper but my size made it impossible.I got an invitation from KorTac and decided to join."I was speechless.We had almost the same history,I joined military early too.

But what surprised  me was how he opened up to me at his military past..wow?
"Wow...I joined military early too."I said as I nodded
"How come?"He asked,his voice gentle but still serious.
"My parents died when I was 17,my sister was 4 then.We were left with nothing and I got an invitation from SpecGru to join them.I did,and those were the worst few years of my life."I said.I looked up at him,and to my surprise he was already looking at me.

Those icy blue eyes...

"I'm so sorry about your parents...do you mind telling me how they died..?"He asked,and honestly I decided to tell him.I really dont know why.
"They died on their mission in Moscow...they served in the military as well."I paused for a second
"I had to watch them die because the Russian terrorists kidnapped my sister and me."I said as I kind of slowed my walking.
"My God...I'm so sorry you went through all of that shit...it must be tough now."He said

"Im okay now.Well...look,there is your office."I said as we finally reached it.

I placed my hand on the door handle,I had a key in my other hand.I unlocked the door of his office and walked in.It looked quite nice,almost like my office.

"So,this is your office.My office is just next to yours so if you need anything I'm there."I said as I walked over to his table and sat on it.
"Here is the key."I said as i threw the key at him.He caught it with one hand.

"Thanks,good throw by the way."He said with a smile on his face.I could tell because the corners of his eyes wrinkled.

"Okay...lets go,I will show you where you barrack is!"I said as i hopped off the table and began walking to the door to exit the office.Suddenly I felt his hand on my shoulder.

"Hey,thank you for the tour...this place is quite huge"An electric shock crept down my spine like a tornado,a warm sensation in my chest.I felt like a gun went through my heart when I felt his hand on my shoulder.

"No problem...l-lets get going.."I mumbled.I swear I felt butterflies in my stomach.

We started walking towards the hall where all the barracks were located,and when we reached that hall we saw everyone standing there in a circle.We just walked up to them.

"Hey guys,what's happening?I didn't know we had a meeting?"I joked,but suddenly I felt someone stand right behind me.I literally looked up and saw König standing right behind me.I felt an electric wave in my chest,again...

"Nothing much,we all just finished our tours so we just started talking."Gaz replied to my question.
"Well,we would love to stay but I still need to show König his barrack."I said as I started walking towards his barrack
"Bye guys!"I yelled as I started walking a bit faster,but I quickly felt Königs presence behind
me.When I reached his barrack I tossed him another key.

"Here you go,this is your barrack!"I smiled,"My barrack is there,all the way down the hall"i said as i pointed with my finger "so,again if you need anything,you know where to find me"I said those words in a different tone,I dont even know why.

"Well,I better get going now,I still have some things to do in my office.See you around"I said as I began walking towards my office.

"Yeah,see you,Charly..."Something about him saying my name made me feel like I was on a different planet.Not even a planet,a whole other universe...God,what is wrong with me..?
