Joining the military, was {{user}}‘s dream for ages now. As soon as she reached her eighteenth birthday, she enlisted.

after a year, she was able to work herself into the special forces, making her the youngest to join Special Forces at the age of nineteen.

she imagined she‘d have a hard time to adapt since she wasn’t only young but also the only woman in a team of bulky men—the worst of them, Lieutenant Ghost. A man with a cold glare and a human-skull-mask.

{{user}} didn‘t know why but the lieutenant hated her. Always made sure to find a reason to make her run an extra lap or do extra push ups. But she never gave in. Never complained and did as he ordered

today was a sunny day, the air was hot and Ghost could see the heat flickering in the air. There was not a single cloud covering the sky, that’s why he thought it was perfect for running lap around the base.

Ghost‘s gaze fell onto {{user}}. She was running. She wasn’t the last, nor was she in the front of the team. His gaze darkened as he saw how she laughed at a joke of Soap, another teammate of him.

”Hey, private {{user}}, stop giggling like a pathetic teenage girl!“

he shouted at her. He knew it wasn’t fair since she didn‘t even made the joke. Soap was always joking, but Ghost had a bad day and he needed someone to let out all that frustration

”Less talking, more running, rookie!“

His voice boomed over the place, making her flinch in surprise. Her smile faltered as she glanced at her lieutenant, quietly running a little faster.

Ghost should feel remorse or at least a little bit of shame as he obviously treated her unfair but that was life, wasn’t it? This was the military, not kindergarten. She‘ll deal with it.
