It was just a stupid patrol. But he took them off route. And that's ended up with ghost sat in a cold metal shed for the week- as far as he could tell-, no food or water to drink.

Ghost thought so many things over the last few days, including that it wasn't just roach betraying him but his whole team. Nobody came to look for him... nobody came to save him.

The lock keeping the shed shut clicked open and the door swung wide open, if only he was strong enough to stand and get out. But even if he were, roach was stood in the doorway with a gun and full ballistics gear, he wouldnt stand a chance.

"Roach! Gary please- I- just give me a hand and-" ghost pleaded and reached a hand out to roach roach kicked his arm aside and stood on ghosts thigh. "Please- just-"

Roach leaned down over him and pressed the gun to the centre of ghosts chest. "Stop. This is pathetic." Ghost reached out to roach again and roach held his hand, pulling his arm forward so that his gun was pressed even further into ghosts chest.

"Roach please...." Ghost said, tears falling from his eyes as roach pulled the trigger and ended everything.

Roach flicked ghosts hand to the side as his body went limp and blood started pooling on the ground beneath him.

He walked out, confident and victorious until price, Gaz, Alejandro and soap all ran towards him and the metal shed.

"ROACH! Did you- what did you do..." gaz asked and took a step back, seeing the blood splatter on roaches cheek.

Soap looked at the bloody gun in roaches hand, the blood splatter on his body and noticed the shed in the back, obscured by a few trees. "Gary. Where is ghost. Where is he." Soap asked coldly, not taking his eyes off that shed

Alejandro seemed to figure out the implications first and roach raised the gun to fire at him but price pushed the barrel up and pinned roach face agaisnt a tree within a matter of moments.

"No. No...." Soap whispered and looked at the bloody barrel.

"Does anyone have cuffs?? I know we don't carry them often but- thanks ale!" Gaz called and cuffed roaches hands behind his back.

Soap ran, darting through trees and over roots to get there as fast as he could. He looked into the shed and covered his mouth. "GHOST'' he yelled and got everyone's attention. "No no no! LT cmon.... Please." He ran and held ghosts body close to him, trying to find vitals, kneeling in a pool of ghosts blood.

"Gaz! Price! Ale!" He yelled and sobbed agasint ghosts balaclava. "Please!" He cried and rocked ghosts body back and forth.

The other three all ran at his insistent yelling and gaz froze in his track, seeing the scene before him. Alejandro hit him round the head "focus! We have to get him help!" He barked and gaz nodded, starting to pull soap off before price put a hand on his shoulder.

"Captain?" Gaz asked and price shook his head with a grim expression. "You don't- your sure?" Gaz asked, starting to tear up.

"Check yourself if you don't believe me." Price said lowly, holding soaps shoulders.

Gaz checked ghosts pulse and even checked if he was breathing but there was nothing. "Shit.... How long.... Can't be more than 10 minutes, we only just heard the gunshot." Gaz whispered and tried to hug soap and move him off the corpse but soap lashed out and pushed him back harshly. "Okay. Point taken" gaz sighed, holding back tears.

"Jhonny.... Please. You've gotta let him go... we can't give him the burial he deserves if your holding him. Please." Alejandro tried to reason with him and just got a sobbing, choked 'fuck off' in response.

Price lifted the back of ghosts balaclava to just barely reach for the ball chain that held his dog tag's and take them off. "Soap.... Listen to me.... I know it's not the most proper, but listen. I want you to take care of these. You were closer to him than all of us." Price said and pressed ghosts dog tag's agaisnt soaps chest so he paid attention. "Now." He said to gaz and Alejandro.

Gaz and Alejandro took the moment of confusion to pull soap away from ghost while price started to deal with the body. Soap tried to fight out of Alejandro and gaz's hug-pin combo and failed, just ending up sobbing and clutching at the dog tags in his hand

"It's all my fault" he sobbed and gaz hugged him close. "If I'd been quicker-" he cried.

"Don't think like that... there's nothing any of us could've done to save him."
