Ghost: The Legacy of a Legend

Chapter 74 - A Mission of Legends

It was a quiet morning in Beverly Hills. Harry was drinking his coffee when the phone rang. On the other end of the line, the deep voice of a CIA agent was direct and objective:

— Mr. Potter, we have an urgent mission that requires your presence. The CIA is coordinating a joint operation with DEVGRU, Red Squadron, and we want you to participate.

Harry frowned, already knowing the weight of the invitation. DEVGRU was the elite group of the US Navy, and he knew that if they were calling him, the operation was of high priority and risk.

—Which team are we talking about? — Harry asked, already mentally preparing himself.

—Bravo Team, led by Jason Hayes. — The agent replied. — They will be the main operators in the field, and the mission will be to infiltrate hostile territory. Your experience will be crucial to the success of the operation.

Harry thought for a second before answering:

—I'm in. Send the details.

After hanging up, he picked up the phone again and called Kensi, who was in Los Angeles working with NCIS.

"Kens? I got a call. I have a mission to carry out with DEVGRU. I'm going to Dam Neck, Virginia. I don't know for how long, but I'll keep in touch."

"Harry, be careful, okay?" Kensi replied, with a tone mixed with concern and understanding. "You always go on dangerous missions, but I know you know what you're doing. I'll wait for you."

"Thank you, Kens. I promise I'll come back safely." He replied with a smile, before saying goodbye.

At Naval Base Dam Neck, Virginia, Bravo Team was gathered in the briefing room, led by Lieutenant Commander Eric Blackburn. The operators were focused, awaiting instructions for their next mission.

Jason Hayes, the seasoned leader of Bravo, watched his teammates, Ray Perry, Sonny Quinn, Trent Sawer, Brock Reynolds and the newest member, Clay Spencer, with his usual calm before any mission. But something was different about this meeting, and they could feel it.

Blackburn entered the room and looked at the team, his face serious, but with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Bravo Team, we have an infiltration mission into a fortified compound. Information is limited, but what we do know is that it involves a highly dangerous terrorist cell. Our mission is to neutralize the threat and gather data on their operations."

He paused before continuing, which kept everyone attentive.

"This mission will be a little different. You will have an additional operator with you, someone who knows this type of terrain well and has conducted operations of this caliber before. He will be essential to the success of the mission."

Sonny Quinn, always curious and irreverent, was the first to speak:

"An extra operator? Who is this guy? A SEAL from another team?"

Blackburn looked at Sonny with a slight smile before answering:

"Not exactly. You will be accompanied by a well-known operative in the world of special operations. He is British, codename "Ghost."

The mention of the codename caused the room to fall into absolute silence. The name "Ghost" was a legend among special forces operators. It was said that he had, on a mission in Iran, single-handedly eliminated a hit squad, escaping without a trace. His reputation was almost mythical, both in the UK and in the US.

Jason Hayes exchanged a look with Ray Perry, his second in command. Ray, who always remained calm, could not hide his surprise.

"Wait a minute, Ghost? The same Ghost who..." Ray began, being interrupted by Blackburn.

"Yes, the same Ghost. He is on his way to the base now to join you," Blackburn confirmed. "The CIA specifically requested his presence on this operation, and if he is here, you know how important this mission is."

Sonny couldn't contain his excitement:

"Oh man, I've heard stories about this guy! They say he's a real ghost in the field. I can't believe we're going to be operating with him!"

Clay Spencer, always the most thoughtful, raised an eyebrow, still processing the information.

"It looks like this mission is going to be even more interesting than expected," he commented, while Trent and Brock just nodded in agreement.

Jason Hayes, despite his experience and having worked with many elite operators, was equally intrigued. Working with a living legend like Ghost would be a challenge and an honor.

"Alright, guys. Let's focus. Ghost's presence here means we have to be at our best. He may be a legend, but we're still Bravo, and we do what we do best." Jason said, focusing his team on the mission.

Meanwhile, Harry Potter, the man behind the codename "Ghost," was already on the plane heading to Virginia, ready for another operation alongside one of the most respected special operations teams in the world. Another mission awaited him, but this time, he wouldn't be alone.
