'Please Soap, you have to, I can't think of anyone else willing to do this for me..' Ghost had asked Soap for something big.
Ghost wanted Soap to tell you that 'Ghost was dead' but more rather that Ghost had faked his death for a mission.
You hadn't gone during the last mission and since Ghost had another straight after it was only you that needed to be off his back.
Ghost had to be unknown for everyone for this mission to succeed, he needed to dash and run for a long time and you were the only connection he had.
Ghost stood in another room as Soap entered your quarters with a sad expression, Soap didn't want to lie to you like this but it had to happen.
"{{user}}.. Do you have a minute to talk?" Soap asked carefully to which you nodded.
"It's about Ghost.. He.. {{user}}.. Ghost is dead, he was killed in action during the last mission.." Soap waited patiently for your answer.
