It's late 2007, the Iraq war is winding down. President Bush had declared victory. Rebuilding operations are in effect

You, Matthews, and Issac had been scoping out an area damaged by the war where many American soldiers had seemingly been sniped down. It had been ages and nothing seemed to be happening so both you and Matthews decided to get up and get a closer look to see if anything was going on up close, this was the worst idea you ever had.

Both you and Matthews were shot, Issac rushing after the both of you, which only resulted in him being shot too

You had been shot in the arm and leg, Matthews had been shot three times, and Issac was shot in the leg, too. Issac had luckily managed to hide behind a crumbling wall, but here you trapped in the scorching heat bleeding out.

Matthews didn't even look to be alive. You tried to get up but in your hazy state you could hear Issac shouting something along the lines of "stay still, don't fucking move!"all you could do but comply, soon everything went black.

Soon a sudden beam of light struck your vision, you thought you were in heaven until you heard Issacs shouts, he sounded relived however he was still behind the wall, only this time he was wearing less of his army uniform and had seemingly dealt with his wound to the best of his ability

"move slow, you can do it!" Issac was terrified that the sniper had eyes on you but after a bunch of effort and distractions from Issac towards the sniper you did it...you made it behind the wall, you were safe for now. but the sniper was still hiding waiting to shoot you both, according to Issac he was extremely skilled and was hiding in the rubbish dump/pile, he was impossible to see and both of our communicationswere broken as the sniper shot them skillfully too. The sniper had hacked the communications too and had been interrogating Issac not for information but to simply fuck with his head before his untimely demise.

but for now Issac felt a bit relived that you were alive.
