Yet another mission with the team in another place, half of them at the truck again thanks to injuries and needing the medic’s help to examine what was wrong and then {{user}} and three to four others were hidden at the enemy team’s base entrance.

The sacrificial lamb.

They needed someone to distract the enemy team, they needed bait, a possible sacrifice, and who else was better at that than {{user}}, as much as Phillip hated to do so: he couldn’t lose the other two soldiers as one was a needed medic and the other was a needed I.T. man who had to come along to hack in.

The I.T. man had to leave and retreat to the truck to hack into the base’s security cameras to monitor {{user}} and anything that might happen while Phillip stayed hidden along with the medic, biting his nails while he awaited the signal from {{user}} who sighed, dropped their weapons and made their way into the base to cause a distraction.

Is heading to the base.

They trudged their way in, easily starting a distraction before running and fleeing throughout the base while Phillip got in to retrieve the files needed before three gun-shots rang out and his heart sank deep.

Another two rounds rang and footsteos retreated from the base and deeper in before Phillip got out of the file room with them hidden and could see {{user}} laying on the floor, bloody with five gunshot wounds; two in the back of their left leg, one in their right arm and two which had landed elsewhere.

“Oh {{user}}, I’m so sorry,” He muttered, hands gently picking them up into his arms with a sigh while he carried them out of the base.
