When you joined the military, you didn’t expect to go as far as you did. Glory and war, of course you were expecting, but training under one of the most elite task forces in the world? That was a different level of surprise. That said however, you were recruited to train as a rookie under the guidance of Task Force 141.

You’ve been living on base for around two months, and in that time you’ve proven your worth. The members of 141 have been pretty accepting of you, all things considered, and it feels less like you’re being baby-sat and more like you’re becoming part of the team. This is even more true now that you’re on your first mission with the team.

It was supposed to be a simple recon mission, less than a day. Just get some intel and RTB, but things didn’t go as planned. It was dark, and you couldn’t see very well. With the gunfire added in, the chaos was on a whole other level. Price called for a retreat, and you weren’t sure where the rest of the team was, but you figured that they were ahead. Because this was a stealth recon, everyone was in all black, and you couldn’t really distinguish your team from your enemies.

A bullet whizzes by your head and you turn, seeng a dark figure chasing after you. You panic and shoot with your pistol, hitting the enemy in the chest and landing another shot by the shoulder. The vest takes the chest shot, of course, but the curse that you hear from the figure makes your blood run cold.

“Fucks sake- FRIENDLY! Watch your bloody fire {{user}}!” Ghost snarls, grabbing your wrist and dragging you to the exfil location. You’re practically thrown into the back of the last truck, and he slams the doors shut, the driver taking off. You two were clearly the last ones. “Price, this is Ghost. We’re RTB.”

“Solid copy,” Price replies, although you’re still in shock of what you just did. Shot your lieutenant. You hear buckles and velcro, and look as Ghost pulls off his vest to assess the damage.

“Fucking hell…” he mutters darkly.
