hehe


Ok part 3 Here now...one again wrote on my iPod...by the way I do this by writing it on an app called documents. Oh and my knowledge of the British army is pretty good and some of the things that I write about(not the combat) I have done when I was in army cadets...mainly the small details but I do have some exp with what I'm writing about.

Now this part I'm going to introduce some new characters but to make it easier to follow I won't switch characters as much this chapter. Also once you've read this please leave some feedback/ things you want to see because I'm writing this on the spot with no idea if anyone even likes it. .......... *the next day after the end of the last part*

Ghost had not even heard the gun fire of his fellow soldiers last night. As he put away the small 2 man shelter that is default for any soldier to carry he streached out his limbs. It had been a rough night sleeping. Alone with no contact. It was just like when he started out as a private back in his first mission, he had been sent out with some other men and got split up from them. It was 3 days before he re-grouped with everyone else.

Ghost hoped that it would not be that long for he had only packed enough rations for 2 days if he streached them out. He opened one of the packets that he was carrying. It was a silver foil bag but it contained beans and bacon. He ate half of it and tied the open end of it so he could have it later. Eating cold rations was fine, but it never tasted as good as a fully cooked breakfast.

Ghost then erased all traces that he was ever there and started walking in the same direction he had started it last night. After looking at the rising sun he worked out that he was traveling north east. He had also worked out that this was defently not the same forest that they set out into just yesterday. Ghost then checked his watch it read '06:04' so it would be another 30 hours until the base sent out a search party.

Roughly 20 minutes of walking with no result finally ended up with the end of the forest. Well more of a break in the trees with a hill blocking any site further that 30 meters. But that's not what had his attention. The main thing was just up ahead there was clear signs that someone had been there very reasently. There was a camp fire that was still smoking and there was even imprints in the short grass that proved that someone had walked there very reasently.

Ghost went prone at the edge of the trees and looked down the Acog sights attached to his SA80 A2 and slowly checked for any signs of people still being there. He waited for 2 minutes to be 100% sure that nothing had been missed and he slowly got up from his hiding spot keeping his weapon at the ready he entered the clearing and walked fowards the place where the fire had been.

Slowly rolling his feet to reduce the sound of movement he walked up to it and got onto one knee and ran his hand over the prints. Ghost then got a confused look on his face, these were paw prints. It apeared to from from some kind of canine. He then moved up to the hill and climbed it to get a look at what was over the other side and the result shocked him.

There on the otherside was a village of wooden huts. He couldn't count them all but it looked like atleast 20. Ghost went back down the hill he had came from and pulled out his radio and tryed to get in touch with someone. But it was to no avail. Then he remembered something that this model of radio could do. It could record messages and send them once a connection had been establised. He turned it on and said "NightStorm this is ghost I have come across a village, possablely has a community of people living here. I walked north east of the arches for an unknown number of clicks." Ghost then deeply thought out this next bit before saying "I'm going to contact them and try and see who they are. Ghost out"

With that he pressed send and hoped that it would get to someone sometime. He crawled back up the hill and aimed down his sights to look and see if anyone was there. It looked like everyone was out or not up. He then spied a hut with slightly darker wood forming it's structure, it looked like it has re-enforced aswell as it seemed thicker than the others.

He was about to get up when a male voice from behind his said in an alarmed tone "Whos that?!? Quick! Get him!" Ghost rolled over to see the speaker but only saw a flash of orange then felt a sharp pain in his head then black swallowed up his vision.

*unknown time later*

Ghost started comming around but his vision was still black. He tryed to move his arms but couldn't, they felt tied up. Ghost was slowly going over what happened in his head,which really hurt, someone shouted and... Ghost spoke out loud "ah damn I've been captured haven't I?"

A deep male voice replied "yes you have lad an' you'll not be goin' anywhere soon."

Ghost still a bit hazey from the knock to the head then said "who are you? Why did you attack me?"

The male said " I didn't attack you lad, that would be my hunters that caught you. And sorry for being rude and not introducing myself. I am light claw, leader of 'Red fire'...now it's my turn to ask questions, what are you? And what are you doing in my camps perimtier?"

Ghost thinking he was being interogated for information answered "callsign Ghost, I know nothing more"

Light claw laughed "haha so you don't even know what you are? So that's why you are in my camp, you were to stupid to even know you were here? In that case you probarly think your eyes are not working. Well we've covered them for you. Does your tiny brain understand that?"

Ghost remained silent.

Light claw then said "so you've forgotten how to talk have you?" Ghost then heard footsteps comming towards him then a sharp pain drag across his chest. Ghost flinched at this pain but did not cry out. Light claw continued to talk "this thing you walked were carrying" the sound of his SA80 getting picked up could be heard "what is this thing?"

Ghost stayed quiet

Light claw sighed then reared up and punched Ghost hard in the place that he had scraches at a second ago. Ghost coughed blood and strugled to get his breath back but still said nothing. Light claw then said "I'll let you think about those questions. Just remember that the ones that caught you wanted to kill you" and with that Ghost heard Light claw leave.

Not wasting a second Ghost pulled on the bonds on his legs and arms that were tied him to what he thought was a wooden pole, but they held firm. But while pulling he felt that he was still wearing his boots and uniform. He smiled because he had his way out of here if he could just get to his boots.

Outside voices could be heard there was 2 males speaking one said "so we have to guard this? Why do we always get the slow paced jobs?"

The second one said back "it's because you can't shut your trap while we are hunting!"

The first one replied "i'll have you know that it's not my fault when 'someone' pokes my with their spear!"

The second one said "well you should be more careful then shouldn't you?"

Ghost thought to himself "these guards don't seem very well trained, that can come in handy."

Just then a third voice broke the guards argument up, it was female. "has my dad killed him or can I see him?"

The guards said "Light claw let him live...for now."

The female walked in and stopped "wow...what are you?" Ghost then felt something soft touch his wound that Light Claw had made. "that's not very deep, you will be fine just...try not to get my dad angry, he likes hanging people that annoy him...by their ears."

Ghost then spoke up because this person seemed to be a little calmer than the last one "where am I?"

The female spoke "well your in the Red Fire camp...may I ask what camp your from?...or are you from the city?"

Ghost then replied "what do you mean? Other camps? And what city?"

The female then said "where have you been living? A cave?" She then laughed lightly "are you with the dark shade camp?"

Ghost then sounded annoyed "what is this Dark shade? What are you people going on about? I was with my Patrol and I fell through this White arch an..." he was cut off.

She shouted "you came from the White arch?!?...no wonder you don't know what's going on."

Ghost said "lady, what is that arch?"

She said "you can call me Grace please. Now if your really from the arch what did you say to get through?"

Ghost replied "I said nothing. My friend said Ersing or something like that. L...Grace can you please explain what is going on here?"

Grace seemed to go quiet for a second but then said "I...I can't yet, maybe if" her voice dropped to a wisper "I'm going to take of your blind fold but you must not react, got it?" Ghost nodded. Then he felt Grace pull the blind fold off. He blinked a few times to get use to the light then looked at Grace.

All Ghost could say was "How hard was I hit again?!"

.......
