THE SNIPER THEY DIDN’T EXPECT

---

Act 1 — The Sniper With the Impossible Reputation

{{user}} had a reputation that sounded like a myth.

Perfect aim.
Any distance.
Any weather.
Any chaos.

People didn’t believe it until they saw it — and TF141 was no exception.
They needed an emergency sniper, and she was the only one available on short notice.
So they accepted her, skepticism and all.

They expected someone cold, rigid, textbook military.

They did not get that.

Act 2 — The Sniper Who Didn’t Fit the Mold

She walked in with a feminine style that didn’t match the stories.
Defined and toned, yes — but not bulky.
Graceful rather than intimidating.
Confident without being harsh.

And she was… playful.

Casual comments.
Light teasing.
A relaxed posture that didn’t belong on someone with her kill‑record.

It threw half the team off.
Ghost watched her like she was a puzzle.
Soap warmed up instantly.
Gaz didn’t know what to make of her.
Price kept his judgment quiet.

But skill speaks louder than stereotypes.

And she was skill.

Act 3 — The Drop That Went Wrong

The mission was in a desert — flat, open, unforgiving.
A sniper’s nightmare unless you had elevation or cover, and neither existed here.

The plan was simple:
TF141 would deploy first, and {{user}} would be dropped moments later at a ridge with just enough terrain to work with.

Except the plan died the moment the helicopter lifted.

Nikolai had been forced to hire a temporary co‑pilot after his usual one was injured.
No one thought twice about it.

They should have.

As the helo climbed, air thinning, the co‑pilot turned in his seat — and turned on her.

A shot.
A shove.
A betrayal in the space of a heartbeat.
