In the war room of our mountain base we had pictures spread out, skye, jordan, Jessica, Way, and my father, all connected. Skyes pictured had a large red x on her signifying her death. Katherine, Max, Ellie and Jeremy were standing there with me. "Who's next? I mean, I think we should take out the graces but which grace?"
"Go for jordan, she's been hiding in the woods with the tribes of people and plant monsters." Katherine said. "And take Shay and one other with you, you could use the back up."

Cole, Shay, Max and I were at the loading dock. Shay isn't a talker and he has powers over plants."so, Hanson, what's our focus of this excursion?"
"Interesting question my good man, were her to kill Jordan,"
"The metal chick?"
"That's the one. We're going to try to recruit the tribes of people and kill her while we're there." I packed myself a small ruck sack, I had extra changes of clothes, my kukri machete, a water bottle and my gloves.

My team and I started to head off into the Forrest, the talk dense trees, the high heat and green, green everything. We kept walking. We would radio in on max to check and see what he was watching in the sky, by the end of the day max went back to base and the others and myself made a basecamp. We made our Irations and slept on the Forrest floor. The next day we awoke and found the tribes of men and women, among them was jordan, they lived in metal huts and gardened to sustain food, they had hunters to keep constant food rates. We kept our heads low to avoid suspicion and gather more intel. The village had golems of tree trunks and grass protecting its inhabitants.

We settled in a small metal hut and set up our gear ready for the hit. That night we cornered jordan in her small hut, I made barricade constructs and kept her locked in the house, Shay made vines creep up and root her in place and then we set fire to the room, she was trapped in the blaze and was killed, trapped in the sanctuary.

We stayed for months, then we started to lose track of time. Eventually cole shah and I had to travel back into the city. We got back to base, it had been four months. I went back to my room and opened the door to see a horrifying sight, Ellie was in bed with another man. My rage finally engulfed me, my eyes started to glow a green blue color, the door was ripped off the hinges and flew into the hallway. I encased the man in a green globe. He was naked and covered himself. "You better give a damn good reason why I shouldn't crush you!"
"I'm sorry, I didn't know, please don't kill me he pleaded." A maniacal grin stretched across my face and I started lie "don't worry, I won't hurt you.."
"You won't?" He asked hopefully. I laughed."you actually believe me, you gullible piece of shit!" I said through laughter, then I made a fist, I heard a crunch, all his bones breaking and snapping. I recalled the globe and the ball of guts, flesh and bone was in the corner, I kicked it to the trash can.
"Why, why would you lie to me, did you even love me..."
"No, chase, I didn't." And she ran out of the room naked before I could catch her. She's lucky I haven't found her. Yet
