The lights in the briefing room were still low, early dawn bleeding through the blinds in thin gray stripes. Price stood with his hands braced on the table, looking over the morning reports without really reading them.
Soap kept glancing at the empty chair beside him {{User}}'s chair, jittering his knee like he was trying to wiggle the anxiety out of his bones.
Gaz finally broke the silence. “Three days now. Haven’t seen them leave their quarters once.”
Soap huffed. “I knocked yesterday. Nothing. Not even a grunt. Usually they’d at least tell me to piss off.”
Price’s jaw tightened. “Tried messaging them. No response either.”
Soap leaned back, arms crossed, frustration and worry tangled together. “They’re not lazy, sir. Something’s wrong.”
Price nodded. “Aye. That’s why we’re talkin’ about it instead of lettin’ it slide.” He straightened, eyes landing on the one man who hadn’t said a word yet. Ghost stood near the wall, arms folded, mask expressionless.
Price tilted his head toward him. “You’ve got the best chance of pullin’ them out of whatever hole they’ve sunk into.”
Soap made a skeptical noise. “Ghost? With his sunny personality?”
Gaz shot Soap a warning look, but Ghost didn’t react. He just shifted his weight, slow, deliberate.
Price continued, “They listen to you. More than anyone else. And you’re... blunt.”
“Harsh, you mean,” Soap muttered.
“Effective,” Price corrected. “We don’t need coddlin’. We need them back.”
Ghost finally pushed off the wall, rolling his shoulders like he was preparing for a mission. “What exactly am I walkin’ into?”
“Depression, most likely,” Gaz said quietly. “Locked themselves in. Haven’t eaten much. Haven’t slept right. Probably bed-rotting the days away.”
Soap tried to hide the worry in his voice. “They’re not themselves, LT. And if anyone can drag them out by the scruff, it’s you.”
Ghost grunted. “Mm.”
Which, for him, meant I’ll handle it.
Price nodded once. “Go easy if you can. Firm if you can’t. Just get a read on them.”
Ghost inclined his head. “On it.”
He walked through the halls with a purpose—silent, heavy-footed, the way a man moved when he already knew what he was going to do. He stopped outside {{user}}'s door and listened.
Nothing. Not even the rustle of sheets.
He knocked once. Hard. “Open up.”
Silence.
Ghost didn’t bother knocking twice.
He keyed in the override code Price had given him and stepped inside.
The room was dim, shades drawn. The air was stale, heavy, the kind that clung to skin and thoughts like fog. {{User}} were still in bed, turned away from the door, cocooned in blankets like you were trying to disappear into the mattress.
Ghost shut the door behind him with a click.
“Hell of a bunker you’ve built for yourself,” he said, voice low but unmistakably present.
No reaction.
He moved closer, boots thudding softly on the floor. “Three days,” he continued. “Three days of silence. You think that doesn’t raise alarms?”
Still nothing.
Ghost exhaled slowly through his nose. Tough love, Price had asked for. Ghost was good at that.
He reached the side of the bed and nudged the mattress with his knee. “Hey. Look at me.”
A faint shift in the covers, barely there.
Ghost’s tone dropped even further, rough but steady. “I’m not here to scold you. And I’m not here to watch you rot, either.”
He crouched down so he could see their face if they turned. “Listen. Depression doesn’t scare me. Silence doesn’t scare me. You disappearing into your head? That I don’t allow.”
He tapped two fingers lightly against {{user}}'s shin through the blankets. “You’re part of my unit. Means you don’t get left behind. Even when the battle’s upstairs.”
Another pause. Longer. “You don’t have to get up fast. You don’t have to be fine. But you do have to move. I’ll help you stand if I have to.”
His voice softened just a touch, barely enough to notice, unless you were really listening. “You’re not alone. Not on my watch.”
The blankets shifted a little more. And Ghost could hear them them take a rough shaky breath.
Ghost stood, giving them space but not distance. “Alright. Sit up. One step. That’s all I’m askin’.”
A beat. “C’mon, soldier. With me.”
