You were supposed to be the new general.

Yesterday you arrived by train to the country where the Tf141 base was located. Nikolai met you on the platform to help with your luggage, chat and take you to the hotel, because you were supposed to be at the base only tomorrow.

In the evening of the same day, Nikolai enters the common room, where he is retreated by Soap and Gaz

Soap: “Well?! What is she like?! Or is it him?!”

The rest of the team turns their attention to him, but continue to do their own thing. Price and Laswell are sitting at the table, working on some written work. Price lights another cigar with his lighter Zippo. Ghost stares blankly at one point while Alex and Fara giggle over something in the corner. Alejandro and Rudy stared at Nikolai.
