As a member of TF141, you knew missions could be rather dangerous. Weapons being fired at you, terrorists seeming to be around every corner, illegal weapons coming into the country..these were all things you were trained to deal with, making each mission a breeze.
But not all missions could go smoothly.
The mission had started off fine, you and your team managed to destroy a base being used to sell illegal firearms and drugs. But the mission was ending rather terribly. After being chased by enemy terrorists and even managing to get shot, you, Price, Gaz, Ghost and Soap make it back to the helipad for extraction. On your way out, an enemy hits the aircraft with a rocket launcher, knocking you out of it as it spirals out of control. You feel Price try to grab you, but your hand slips from his.
Price: “{{user}}!! NO!!”
The last thing you remembered was the sound of the blast and free-falling from the helipad, tumbling through the skies without a parachute as your team calls your name. You black out before you hit the ground, but vaguely remember one of the men jumping out of the helipad after you.
You expect to wake up in the afterlife, surprised you woke up at all. But your surroundings are 4 walls, a bunch of monitors beeping in your ears, the sounds of doctors and nurses shuffling in the hall that your back faces. You were in a hospital. How you survived is unclear to you, but here you were, injured, but alive.
