I wake up from another torture session, screaming as I wake up in the middle of the forest surrounded by mildew. I look to see no one around. I get up to feel that my arms wet and sticky because of the mildew. 'No one goes on morning runs I see, at least I have assured alone time.' I sit there looking over my body for over an hour. My mind runs through everything that's wrong with me as I'm in a trance. I can feel something coming so I immediately get behind the tree I that was propping my up and lie down to listen. I large and small footsteps come close and I hear voices.
female #1: "He's probably long fucking gone by now, I don't get why were trying to search for him." She says in frustration.
Radio chatter: "He'll be here, he was caught on the camera's last night. I'll be over watching the area making sure he isn't able to get in."
male #1: ... "He might be hiding" said an English accented voice with a doubtful tone.
I thought to myself 'I need to get back inside soon, and NOT be caught'. I waited for them to mosey on for a few minutes as they did a half-ass job searching. I crawled around for most of the time looking around for cameras and possible snipers. I can tell it's early morning by the suns position and the fact that they're all a bunch of fumbling idiots at the moment. I crawl as fast as I can past everything I can see and roll to the door I walked out of last night. I stand up and speed-walk to my room without being noticed by anyone. I get to me room after a bit of back tracking and see they've taped a few caution tapes on my door that I left open. 'Dammit, I should've closed it.' I walk in not disturbing the tape and shutting my door quietly, locking the door behind me. I walk to the bathroom to take off my clothes and take a shower. I stand in the shower not doing anything besides let the slightly warm water run down all 10 scars. I have about 2 scars on my chest, 2 on my back. I have 2 on each of my arms. The rest are on my thighs. For some reason, my torturers didn't touch my face at all. I get out of the shower after I get myself to wash. I put on sweatpants, a white t-shirt and a hat. I look around my room and it doesn't feel right. I look up at the right side corner by the door to see a camera. A fancy security one. I go up to it and pull it off the wall to disconnect any wires but find that it wireless. I dismantle it taking out the SD card and removing any receivers or transmitters. I reinstall the camera to make it look like whoever installed it thinks it's still working09. I put whatever I didn't put back into the camera, mainly just the transmitter and the SD card, into my desk. I put my gym shoes on and then my artillery balaclava with sunglasses. I then walk out of my room hoping everyone is at the cafeteria since it's 15 past noon. I start to walk towards the cafeteria but bump into someone. It's the French girl with the stupid drone.
Frenchie: "Watch it White Mask." she says looking at me with disgust.
"My apologies, ma'am." I glance at her then walk off.
She looks back at me confused but I ignore it. I walk towards the cafeteria and when I get there some people still look at me with disgust while others go back to their conversations. I grab a banana and 2 bottles of water. I sit over in the corner where I was originally going to sit last time. I see Monika waving but I gesture with my hands 'thank you, but no'. I quickly eat the banana to hopefully avoid interaction with others. I get up and to throw my banana away when the redhead stops me.
redhead: "What are you doing White Mask? Why didn't you beat Lion down yesterday." She stood in front of me blocking my path.
"I have no coral with that man. Why would beat him?" I said trying to just get to the gym.
Redhead: "Because he's an asshole. Also hey, my name is Eliza by the way!" She says grabbing my wrist
In an immediately reflex I drop the banana peel and grab her arm. I twist her around before realizing what I've done. I let go of her and throw my banana peel away and quickly walk to the weight room. I forgot the water bottles at the cafeteria but didn't realize it till I was already halfway through my daily workout. I do 200 push-ups, then 250 sit-ups, after that I do 150 pull-ups and finish with a 5-mile run. I do lifting when I can so since this place offers it I use it. I generally do 200, 250 lbs benches but today I was feeling good so I steadily lifted 350 lbs. I take up an extra 30 minutes with my workout because of the extra lifting did. I had taken off my shirt and pulled up AB (Artillery Balaclava) because of the rigorous workout (the balaclava is blinding me). Also your not allowed water till the end. I get my dry towel and wipe some of the sweat off of me. I drink from the nearby water fountain and let it run on the bottom of my face for a few seconds. I put my shirt on and start to walk out still blinded by my balaclava. I walk out the door to sense 2 ladies by the water fountain and vending machine outside of the workout room.
"You two need to work on your spying skills," I say casually as I walk past them.
???: "Hh-ho-how?" said a woman with a Polish accent
???: "U-uh." Says an American woman dumbfounded.
I pull down my balaclava and put my shirt back on when I get close to the cafeteria. I noticed that I was still sweating so the white shirt I had put back on was hugging to me, now wet with sweat. I walk past the cafeteria as fast as I can without running. You make it to your dorm and that's when the PA announcement goes off.
PA system: "Operator Black Kaiser come to my office immediately."
'Dammit, I was gonna take a shower...' I thought to myself as I put a cleaner, less sweaty, shirt on. I put a leather biker jacket on and some blue jeans and headed to Six's office. I searched my around the base and eventually found it with two guards on the outside of the room. I respectfully knocked on the door.
Six: "Come in." She said while sitting at her desk with a file in front of her.
As I walk into her office I notice that it is generally unlit all except for her desk which is lit by a lamp.
"What did you need me for ma'am?" I say sitting in the chair across from her.
Six: "We're you trying to escape last night? Also, while you answer that for me, I need you to fill this personal file out so we have some information on you." She passes it to me along with a pencil.
"No I wasn't I need fresh air and I passed out, and will do but, I have two requests. 1, You don't put this in your online database. 2, you don't allow any operators to see it until I allow. I will find out if you have let them see it." I say taking the pencil and scribbling down my information.
Six: "I forgot to tell you that you'll be doing tests to see if you have the skill to pass our orientation. You'll be doing CQC against one or more operators, more than one if you're looking for a real challenge. A hostage simulation and a track record. Just so you know you'll be in a cell till we find you trustworthy." She says looking at me as if she was expecting some sort of surprised reaction.
"For the CQC I get to choose who I want to face," I say as I get up leave Six befuddled with my response.
I head to my new cell and fall asleep to wait for another nightmare with a guard outside my door, watching.
