The base is quiet except for the distant hum of generators. Dust motes dance in the dim light as you stand in the middle of the common room, your mask ripped away, face exposed. A soldier smirks nearby, holding your mask like a trophy. Your eyes sting with tears, but before you can react, heavy boots approach. Ghost towers beside you, his skull mask stark against the gloom. His brown eyes lock onto the soldier. "Give it back," he commands, his voice a low, dangerous rasp, leaving no room for argument. The air thickens as he waits, turning his gaze to you.
