Fighter (Simon Ghost Riley!)

All About You

"What the fucking hell are you playing at?!" Ghost shouted as he and the team met back up with price. Price casually pulled a cigar from one of his pockets lighting it.

"Ending the war" he spoke matter of factly. Ghost stood close to price, they stared at each other for a few moments probably trying to decide if they should punch each other or not.

"Alright. That's enough male bravado" Addy spoke, pushing herself between the two men, pushing them away from each other trying to ease tensions.

"You want to remember who is in charge Lieutenant!" Price called after ghost as he stormed off towards the evac point.

"What the hell price?" Adder questioned once the captain and herself were alone. They slowly began walking back towards the evac point.

"They wanted the war ended. I did it" he spoke matter of factly glancing over at the Sargent. She looked at him rolling her eyes.

"Did you not think to tell us?" She questioned her eyebrows pulling together in disbelief as she walked instep with the captain. Price chuckled lightly.

"Would you have tried to stop me?" Price stopped watching the Sargent, she sighed heavily. She didn't need to speak a word, the expression written across her face answering prices question.

"Exactly" Price spoke before walking away from the Sargent, Addy stood in thought for a moment, shaking her head slightly amazed the captains outrageous plan had worked, he had effectively ended the war single handed. Addy sighed heavily before jogging to catch up to the captain.

As They approached the field, Ghost, roach and the rest of the team took up defensive positions around the landing site, scanning the area for any sign of a rouge Russian soldier.

The ride back to base was tense, no one seemed to speak. Ghost occasionally glanced over to adder but most of the time he was watching the view out of the bird, Addy occasionally glanced towards the lieutenant, watching as he seemed lost in his own thoughts.

As soon as they landed shepard requested they go to the briefing room, soap met them their. Each soldier sat down as Shepard appeared infront of them, Addy glanced around the table before quietly taking the seat next to the lieutenant.

"It's been a tough week, gentlemen. We've lost more than we ever dreamed. But we will recover. I've got a blank check. And we're gonna use every cent of it killin' Zachaev Despite what the world may say, we are not savages, we don't kill civilians. We use precision. There's an evil man hiding in these shadows and we're gonna bring him into the light. Once his face is revealed, we will write history, gentlemen." Shepard spoke, the room as dark as a projector showed a satellite image of two possible locations. The georigia-Russia border and another in Afghanistan.

Addy gently poked the lieutenants knee, a small smile playing on her lips as he glanced over towards her. Turning his attention back towards the screen he carefully moved his foot, tapping his boot silently on her own, Addy rested her chin on her hand poking ghost once again twice this time. Receiving two small boot taps back.

"These are the last safe havens left on Earth for Zachaev and his men." Shepard continued turning is attention back towards the team.

"Sounds like we gotta be in two places at once" price chuckled looking at his team, Ghost smiled under his mask at his and Addy's little game, he copied her taps exactly, he could see the smile that graced her lips that she oh so desperately tried to hide.

"Impossible?" Shepard questioned leaning on the table infront of him.

"Not for us" price smirked.

"Fifty-fifty chance to take out Zachaev, eh?" Addy chuckled lightly.
