A week passed.
Ebony walked onto an aircraft as Ghost placed his pack under the seats.
After someone gave information about an ex-mafia boss causing chaos in Italy and Mexico, Shepherd ordered 141 and alpha squad to bring Marco Carmilo in for questioning after causing other issues in the past and disappearing after.
But it was also a capture-or-kill mission.
It had been a while since everyone had been on a mission together so she knew it wouldn't be easy.
"You're early" Ghost looked at her as she threw her pack under the seats.
"I've done this hundreds of times.
I know the routine" she said.
He grunted in response.
"Do you have any information about the target?" She asked as she sat down in front of him.
"He's a slippery fucker.
Not an easy catch" he said.
"Sounds fun," she said.
"Just don't get shot," he said.
She smiled "You know I can't promise that.
I can say that I can make sure that I get shot somewhere that won't kill me" she said.
"Last time you said that you were dragged back with a bullet in your stomach," he said.
"If I remember I saved your life by taking that bullet" she said.
"You're too sentimental," he said.
"When you watch five good men die in front of you, you get protective," she said.
He placed his hand on her cheek.
She leaned into his touch.
Everyone then made their way into the aircraft.
Ghost sat beside her before patting her thigh.
"There she is.
You owe me a fiver cap" Gaz said.
"I'll buy you a drink if we survive this" Ebony said.
"A drink from you.
That's worth more" Gaz said.
"Let's save the celebrations for after the mission," Price said.
"I still think this is fucking bullshit.
We've been after this guy before and he spun us around for weeks" Soap said.
"This time we won't let him get away," Price said.
"How?" Ghost asked.
"A pretty face," Price said.
Ebony looked at him "For fuck sake.
Who don't you tell me these things, John?" She asked.
"Because you would refuse.
Don't worry if you catch him you can be the one to get him to us.
Just don't kill him" Price said as he lifted her head with his thumb.
"I can think of about twenty places that won't kill him," she said.
"As long as you don't kill him," Price said.
"Fine," she said.
"Good girl," he said.
She looked into his eyes.
"Don't say that yet," she said.
He tilted his head.
"If he touches me he loses his hands," she said.
"I would pay good money to see that," Soap said.
"You know you're orders," Price said.
She nodded before watching him walk to the other side of the aircraft.
Ebony looked at him before hearing Alpha Squad fill the rest of the aircraft.
This was going to be overwhelming.

Once the aircraft landed in the middle of nowhere in Italy Ebony walked off with Soap beside her and the others following while alpha squad made their way away from the field so they could make their way to Mexico.
Ebony looked around "Price.
Where are we starting?" She asked.
"For now we need to find a motel.
Tonight we will go to the club He's seen most at.
Hopefully, if he's here this will all be quick and easy" Price said.
"Let's get goin.
We'll need to find a place to hide out before dark" Ghost said.
"Laswell looked up motels.
There's one nearby" Price said.
"Lead the way," Gaz said.
They walked thirty minutes to a motel that was completely empty and falling apart.
Once they were checked in they went to their room before locking the door.
"OK.
What am I wearing tonight?" Ebony asked as she looked at Price.
He took his pack and placed it on the squeaky bed before pulling out a black mini-dress and heels.
"Want to put this on now?" Price asked.
"Not really," she said.
She looked at the thing that was supposed to be a dress.
"That won't cover my tattoos," she said.
"Don't worry about them.
Most guys like that go for girls like you" Gaz said.
"Fuck it.
Hand it over" she said.
Price tossed her the dress.
"You owe me for this," she said.
"Yeah I know," Price said.
She smiled before going into the bathroom to change.
She hated everything about this but knew it was one of the reasons she was put in 141.
She then walked out causing all of them to look at her.
"Steamin Jesus," Soap said.
"You look ravishing Sargent" Price said.
"I hate it.
One wrong move and I will flash everyone in that bloody club" she said.
"Hey, cap we're going to be at the club right?" Gaz asked.
"Yeah," Price said.
"Glad to hear that," Gaz said.
She walked to the bed before sitting down.
"When do we leave?" She asked.
"An hour," Ghost said.
She looked at him "Ok" she said.
"You know we could warm you up, Bonnie.
Help you loosen up" Soap said.
She looked at him "I'll be ok.
This is a mission and I need to stay focused" she said.
"You act like you haven't slept with us separately during missions," Gaz said.
"Shut it," she said as her heart raced in her chest.
She would need a drink or two before even stepping into that club.
