--Chase-

I walk up to my door to see a note on the glass.

"I'll be in contact, if there are any issues. Just call." The note read, with a phone number. Presumably Mike's.

I check the mail box to see a letter and some other things like bills. I fish through the mail as I walk inside the empty home.

"PVT Blade

Delta Company

1-174th Infantry Regiment

Fort King, Afghanistan
BC 59106" The address read.

I throw all the mail onto the table except for Kevin's letter and rush to open it. I rip the letter open and unfold the piece of paper to see Kevin's handwriting, a smile unwillingly forms on my muzzle.

Dear the love of my life,

I have arrived safely at my base over here in Afghanistan. We already are in the fight and it's just unreal. There are a lot of reminders of home here. Everyone has each other's back and I hope someone has yours while I'm away. I want you to know that everything is fine. Getting into a firefight is our specialty. Please don't worry.. I can't stand the feeling of being away from you. It's almost unbearable. I hope everything is alright at home. Kailtyn and Alex better be taking care of you if you need anything as they said they would. I'm not sure when I'll be able to call you or skype you. They have computers with some sort of Internet connection here. So I'll try my best to call you when I can.

One more thing... If anything. Happens. If death does due us part.. I don't want you to morn for me. I want you to carry on. Be happy, maybe find someone..

-Your wolf

I wipe away the tears and put down the letter, sobbing quietly.

I miss him so much.. I want to tell him what's going on.. But I don't want anyone to worry or get involved.

This is my battle and I have to fight it on my own... I have to stay alive. For Kevin.

A knock on my door knocks me out of my trance. I quickly race to take off the heavy vest, shirt, pants and boots. Quickly throwing on a pair of shorts and shirt as they knock again and louder. I spot a mark on my left peck. A small tattoo. Two crossed rifles and a wolf head above it in black. I shake my head and go to the door, opening it mid-knock. Almost getting a punch to the face by-

"Chase!" Kaitlyn exclaimed excitingly. Hugging me with Alex behind her with a smile on his face. She begins to cry on my shoulder before pulling away and wiping her tears with a smile on her face.

"I'm so happy you're ok! Are you?" She asked.

I nodded while shedding a tear. She hugged me again, tighter.

"What happened to you? Where did you go?" She questioned.

I cant tell her

"I.. I-" I choke on my words.

".. I went on a little vacation."

"Chase.. we know you were with Mike." Alex speaks up.

I gulped and looked at them both. I have nothing to say.

"What did he do to you? Want with you?" Alex asks me.

"..."

"Chase.." Alex pressures me to speak.

"I don't know.. I don't remember."

"You can tell us, Chase. We are here to help you." Kaitlyn speaks.
