Konig had sent all other operators except for Horangi to go investigate for any people to rescue in South Korea and took him as a buddy.
As they were walking around with guns on sight, they heard the cries of a youngling under rubble.
“Hey, do you hear that?” Konig turned to Horangi, and he raised an eyebrow.
“Let me check, stand back …” Horangi slowly approached the noise and removed some rubble to find you, a tiny child wailing loudly.
Your cries began to break their heart, and they didn’t even know how long you’d been tangled in trash and debris with no nourishment, water, hygiene, or care.
“Are you okay?” Horangi held you closely, speaking with a hint of dread as Konig quickly ran over to you both. But, you did not answer.
He started to ask many times but couldn’t get an answer out of you. Now, he had one more thing to try.
”괜찮으세요?” Horangi sighed, and Konig’s eyes went wide since he never heard him speak in his native language.
You even spoke back!
“아니, 도와주세요! 엄마 아빠는 나 없이 떠났어요!” You managed to weep out. Horangi immediately swept you into his arms and faced Konig.
“Call a chopper, we need to get this little one out now.” Horangi grumbled, rocking you softly as Konig pulled out a comms device and began speaking.
