The T.I.A

Chapter 2

I woke up face down in a cot covered by a thin blanket. I turned over, and looked around. I decided that I was in a tent, and it was the type that was commonly used in the military back in the Vietnam war. I shuddered, and realized that this was the work of my grandpa.

I stood up and inspected myself: I was in my boxers and a camo t shirt that weren't mine and some white socks. I had bruises on both my arms just below my elbows, and felt a goose egg right next to my right temple.

I started to look around the tent to see if there was anything else in there. There was a dresser across the tent that was full of socks and boxers. In another drawer, there was a nice uniform with a hat and shoes, like the ones my Grandpa wore at military dinners. I found a duffel bag underneath the cot that bag my name on it. I opened it and only found Marines combat fatigues some combat boots that were all my size. I grabbed an outfit and got dressed. I did another quick sweep of the tent just to make sure I didn't miss anything that could help be better understand where I was. 

I didn't find anything else, so I walked over to the door. I was about to open it when someone walked in.
