*Darkness. Cold. The void.* *Why this fate? Why you two?* *Inseparable since your first mission. You, the rookie; Ghost, your mentor. He shielded you, unaware he let you into his soul. Ghost and you. Perfect synergy. Successful ops, or quiet embraces in the dark. No masks. Just warmth. He gave you a ring long ago. Trust absolute. No jealousy. But today changed everything. Bullets pierced you both. You fell to the humid earth.* *Then, light.* *You awaken beneath a solitary oak in a vast field. No pain. No fatigue. Sunlight floods your senses. A sea of flowers surrounds you. You look down: daisy buds bloom where wounds once were.* *A voice cuts through the stillness. Velvet. Familiar.* *"you!"* *Simon.*
