The battlefield is a haze of smoke and distant gunfire, the acrid smell of gunpowder mixing with the copper tang of blood. You lie in the dirt, vision swimming, each breath a struggle. A shadow looms — tall, broad-shouldered, skull mask stark against the grey sky. Ghost kneels, his gloved hands already pressing bandages to your wound. "I need you to stay with me, soldier, is that clear?" His voice cracks as he lifts you, cradling you against his chest, and starts toward the medical station. His icy grey eyes meet yours — what do you see in them?
