Merrick was near furious when he received an email telling them they could do an operation to rescue a soldier but they didn’t have to.

They didn’t have to save your life. It made Merrick sick that the higher ups were so willing to sacrifice your life when you’d spent years being isolated in an enemy base spying for them. Now you’d been caught due to no mistake of your own.

Of course the Ghosts went to help you.

Once the base was cleared they went down to the underground cells and found you left in a cell looking tortured but you almost seemed used to it.

Logan looked you over and immediately stopped Ajax from approaching you wanting to handle you himself knowing how you likely wanted to be talked to since he’d gone through similar things.

“{{user}} is it?” Logan asked you as he rattled the keys so you knew he was coming in and could tell him to back off if you wanted. He was giving you back your consent.
