Bad Memories

I probably dozed off a half hour later, the toll of the days events getting to me.

I nearly fell out the car as Ghost swung my door open with no care whatsoever, causing me to sleepily glare at him, yet when i saw the sight of Jamie sleeping peacefully in his arms, my eyes flashed with a new softness i was sure i wasn't capable of, but it went as soon as it came. He simply gave me one last glance before walking away.

Mumbling a few incoherent slurs under my breath, i picked my bag off from the floor and drowsily followed behind them into a thicket of woods. Careful to not trip over anything, i kept my eyes trained on the ground with a newfound focus.

My feet slowly began to ache as i yelped, colliding into the back of something. Or someone.

I slowly looked up, the cold stare of Ghost glared right back at me, the moonlight only making his mask look more menacing, upon further inspection, i realised there was a smidge of blood on his mask.

"There's-" my voice fell deaf on his ears as he continued walking, a small abandoned house emerging.

Great. A lovely run-down safehouse.

At least it looked like that due to the many boarded up windows, yet as we entered the two story complex, i was taken aback by it's well furnished and cozy look.

I raised a brow. Seems too nice for military, at least back when i was an operator.

I dropped my bag near the door and walked onwards into what seemed like a kitchen and saw Kate leaning against a countertop, one of her laptops open in front of her.

"What now?" she sighed "I've answered all your questions and given you a reason-"

"No" i say cutting her off "You haven't given me a reason, we both know very well that after this 'favour' there will be another and another and another, because you can never repay Kate Laswell without owing her something else" i hissed.

"Look Summer lets be reasonable-" she started.

"No!" i say slamming my hands on the table "I dont want to be called Summer, i dont want to be called Maisie!" i yell "Summer failed back then and so has Maisie" i say angrily "Dont refer to me as a damned failure woman because i will not stand it!" i hissed.

"What do you want me to call you then?" she says raising a brow.

"I-"

"Your going to change your name again? Really?! Your going to run and hide again?" she questioned "I wont let you do that to yourself not again, have some bloody self respect for yourself!" she hissed.

"But what if i dont want to exist live off the grid just peaceful-"

"What if i can get you revenge" she interrupts leaning forward, my ears perked up as i stared at her intently "For both Summer and Maisie" she starts "I know what happened to you was....awful, and as a woman i can try to relate myself with you, but what if you help me, and i help you get revenge on both Hassan and those bastard generals" she whispers "Just think bout it" she adds

Revenge. Something i've been craving for since the day i was wronged, yet revenge was the one thing i had to surely push to the depths of my mind. I could taste it on the tip of my tongue right about now, it was at arms reach, just by the mere mention and promise of it. It was too tempting.

"Im in" i say hardening my gaze "On a few conditions though" i add.

"Go on" she says gesturing towards me.

"I don't want any jurisdiction on how i carry out my revenge, i dont want any limitations or rules, i'll get what i want how i want"

"Okay anything else?"
