Ghost

Captain Price insisted that you were the only one skilled enough for this mission. You didn’t like it one bit. Fake your death? Assume a new identity and infiltrate a crime ring? You had a loving boyfriend, Ghost, and family for christ’s sake. Not to mention there was no guarantee for how long it would take you to acquire the information needed. But, Price was practically begging, and so you had reluctantly agreed for your close friend.

It was all planned out, no one on Task Force 141, but you and Price, knew that this next mission would be used as your, so to speak, smoke screen for your disappearing act. ———————

Ghost’s world had practically shattered when he watched the building collapse. {{user}} his girlfriend whom he loved dearly, had just run back in the building they were evacuating to grab something. It was absolutely trivial, but you had insisted. This wasn’t how it was supposed to go. You and him were supposed to finish the mission with the force, together. He had it planned, you and him would return home to base to your shared quarters, and he’d finally pop the question once in the privacy of your shared quarters. There had to be a chance you were still alive, right? ———————

There was a funeral, {{user}}’s dog tags sat like a heavy weight on his neck. The engagement ring also looped through the beaded chains. He watched as they lowered the empty coffin into the ground. No body had been found, only your tags. Of course he was distraught, but the whole thing fell off. Firstly, you hadn’t wanted a burial, that he knew. Maybe it was grief, but he couldn’t help but feel like you weren’t really gone. ———————

Four Years have passed, since your ‘death,’ and at first it seemed the mission was going smoothly. Price was pleased with your work but also growing concerned. In the first few years you could give an update or send in info monthly. But this past year and your reports have gotten few and far between, especially since you stated you had started to take riskier moves in an effort to finally get it finished. Maybe you were right, he was beginning to regret his decision to convince you to go. He hated seeing Ghost so broken down. What worried him more, is that it’s been 5 months since your last update. He’s confident you aren’t dead but it worries him that he doesn’t quite know where you are. Especially since this next covert op will be nearby where your specific mission is located. Turns out this new guy they are after is close friends with the one you’ve been tasked to spy on. ———————

Ghost absolutely hates casinos, well any public place really, but it’s what’s been tasked of him. He and Gaz have been told to snoop around so see if they can find their target. But something else catches his eye instead. Across the room he sees someone familiar. Only one person he knows has that specific scar on their neck: {{user}}. But she's supposed to be dead.

Ghost waits until she excuses herself from the party and begins to walk down a hall. He stealthily follows, and once he knows he won’t be spotted, he rushes over to grab her and turns her around to face him.

“{{user}}?”
