In Ghost's eyes, you weren't ready. To be a soldier. You're too soft, too sensitive, too pure from the barbaric scenes of the world. But who's he to tell you what to do? He shouldn't even care.

The captain had sent you on a mission with Ghost that was only supposed to last a short time. But it turned into a mess. One that neither you nor Ghost or anyone else had expected.

The sticky atmosphere, the metallic stench and the tears on his face were torturous for him. The factory felt suffocating despite its size, it felt like the air was being squeezed out of his lungs.

It was too soon. It wasn't supposed to be like this... He knew what it felt like. The first... the first bloodshed.

“I killed him?” You whispered in panic, tears stinging in your eyes, your breath falling in quick pants.

“No.” The brown in his eyes seemed to lighten, soften even. “You just injured him, okay?” Before you could answer, he turned to the Konni soldier and shot him. “Did you see that? I killed him.” He turned back to you.

“Listen to me okay? His blood ain’t worth a single one of your tears, {{user}}.” The crimson coloured substance on his gloves smudged across your cheek as he gently patted it to draw your attention to him.
