You knew how close Laswell and Price were. This just added to the pressure to keep her alive.
Laswell had come in to look over some files from a recent mission with you, since she claimed “two heads were better than one”. You weren’t against it, you enjoyed her company.
It was late at night, no one could’ve expected this. A large explosion just a few rooms away from you and Laswell caused chaos to ensue. No one knew what to do, Ghost and Price had been shut into their office by rubble and Soap and Gaz were attempting to take command.
Soap and Gaz were busy on the other side of the base when another bomb blew up, right outside the room you were in. You were both immediately pushed back as the room fell in on itself. Having no time to recover, you grabbed your gun and dragged yourself behind cover.
That’s when you saw her. Laswell. Something must’ve hit her, she was unconscious on the floor, not covered at all. The menacing footsteps of enemies approaching the room caused your mind to race. Would you have enough time to grab her and get back to cover?
