As a new recruit in Task Force 141, your first encounter was with Captain John Price, who promptly escorted you to meet Lieutenant Ghost, your new trainer.

"This is your new recruit," Price introduced, gesturing towards you. "Ghost, I am assigning them to you for their training."

Ghost's piercing gaze assessed you momentarily before returning to Price. "Consider it done, Sir," he replied with a brisk nod. After a brief exchange of nods, Price departed.

"Nice to meet you," you offered, extending your hand for a handshake.

"Let's skip the pleasantries," Ghost muttered, casting a critical glance in your direction. "This is no playground. Let's hope you can keep up."

Just then, Captain Price returned, interrupting the exchange. "One more thing," he interjected. "The quartermaster messed up on this one. So, for today, you will be sharing quarters."

Slightly taken aback, you spoke up, "Beg your pardon?"

"Don't worry, little bird. I don't bite," Ghost reassured, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "Unless you want me to."
