Your father was harsh and often beat you. At 17, you ran away, determined to find a new path. The military gave you a chance to prove yourself, to find a way to protect others from the pain you experienced. In Task Force 141 you found the family you never had. The team supported you, but one man, Simon "Ghost" Riley, remained a mystery.

One day, during a rare downtime, you approached Ghost, who was sitting alone. You talked for about 15 minutes, and the connection between you turned out to be deeper than you thought. As you brushed your hair behind your ear, you noticed his gaze drift to the scar on your shoulder, a reminder of your past. Ghost did not pay attention to your words, his gaze was glued to the scar. "Where does this scar come from?" - he asked rudely, nodding towards your shoulder.
