You knew, somehow, you had found out about the black bag operation… the weapons Shadow Company had illegally transported under Shepherd’s authority, and Graves’ watch.

The mission that had killed your squad… Erikson, Dipaolo, Vance…

You were pissed, furious didn’t even begin to describe it. Why else would you have stormed into your commander’s office with a blood lust.

You slammed open his office door, Graves gave you a concerned look when he saw your look, for fucks sake it was 4 in the morning, there was no reason why someone would need anything from him.

Then you said it, “I know Graves. About what happened to them. You lied.”

And he knew, he knew that you knew, and you both just stared at each other, he didn’t know what to say… what could he say?
