Date: June 24th, 2011…..
It’s been over a year now, and America is still fighting in a war with Russia. We have 4 main forces in our military, Task Force 141; the task force is in Europe, Captain Price, and John “Soap” MacTavish, along with Yuri (The Russian) and Nickolai along with other men make up the Task Force. Then there are the Rangers. The U.S Army, Cpl Dunn. Sgt Foley and their squad. Then The Delta Force. Then there is Makarov’s group which is the group we are trying to stop. I was just 19 years old. My father is the one who runs team Delta, who goes by the name Sandman; he raised me to become the person I am today. I work hard to earn my spot in life. When I was just a private I endured so much, then in early 2010 I was picked to go with Captain Price and his squad which is known as Task Force 141. I was nervous at first, but they welcomed me with opened arms. I met a guy there, his name was John, but we called him Soap. He too was a private, we spent that whole year together, telling each other our history and why we chose to join the military. Later that year I was switched to the Rangers. I made history on becoming the first ever female to go into battle. Today the year is 2016, I’m now 24 years old, and it’s the day we go into battle, General Shepherd was sending the team out on a mission, but first I had to go through the pit and beat it in under 30seconds…
~At the Pit~
“Why look who it is.” Corporal Dunn said to me, he was one of my closest friends here and he was also the one to tell me the rules of the ‘pit’ “Okay Heather, so you are going to run through this pit, before hand I want to give you a few pointers, switch to your side arm.” He said, and I did that, “Now switch to your pistol…” he added. I did that as well “You see how fast that was? Switching to your pistol is always faster than reloading, also knifing helps too. Well I gave you everything you needed to know, now get out there and smile at the cameras, General Shepherd will be watching.” Dunn said, I just smiled made sure my weapons were loaded up and I walked through the gate just then targets popped up and I shot them, as I ran onto the next level Dunn was shouting GO GO GO! Once my side arm ran out of ammo I remembered what Dunn told me and I switched to my pistol, then he told me to sprint to the end, after I finished he looked at me, “13 seconds, not bad for a girl, but we need to work on your accuracy, he said walking over to me, he loaded up his gun and gave me some ammo for my weapon, then he walked me over to the target practice area, “Okay Heather, I want you to shoot from the hip.” He said. I looked then when he seen me struggling a little he gave me a helping hand, “From the hip… So put your gun right about… here.” He said letting go and I shot my gun and hit the target, “See there you go, you need to have control over your gun, if not then you end up spraying bullets everywhere, now let’s try popping in and out of targets, this allows you to lock in on another target.” He said, I did that then he looked at me, “Good job, now throw a grenade to take out multiple targets at once.” He said, I took the grenade and threw it. It blew up taking out 10 plus targets, “Great job Heather, if Shepherd doesn’t pick you then he’s missing out.” He said smiling, just then a alarm was sounding, “Oh shit, we got to go!” he said as we both ran into a car , Sgt Foley was in the car and he was explain exactly what was going on.”
Mission number one, U.S Rangers:
“Okay men and Heather…. Here are your missions, the Russians had compromised us, it’s up to you guys to make them fall back.” He said we accepted the mission and went on, “It’s too quiet.” Dunn said, “Yeah it’s a little weird.” I said, “RPK!!!!” Someone yelled, it hit a car next to ours and we tumbled over, I slid at least 4 or 5 feet from the car, Dunn ran over to me, “Heather are you okay?” he asked, I stood up and grabbed my gun, “Yes I’m fine.” I said, just then another RPK was coming right towards us he grabbed me and we both went to the ground, it hit a building that was behind us, he picked me up and we ran over to where everyone else was at. “OK team, here’s the plan, we need our tanks to advance over that bridge, but they need to fix it first, so I want you all to keep those men off our tanks! Got it?!” he said, we all nodded, I went in possession and started firing my gun, taking out some of the men, then someone yelled, there on the bridge! I looked and started firing at them, and then we were all clear to move up. I got in the vehicle and I got to control the big gun at the top of it! “Yes I get to play with the big gun!” I shouted, Dunn laughed, “I have another gun you can play with.” I looked at him, “You’re gross.” I said rolling my eyes, he just laughed, “Relax I was joking.” He said laughing, I just looked down at him, “Sure you were Dunn.” I said. We passed some of the enemies, and they were just looking at us. “Why are they just standing there?” I asked, Dunn looked at me, “I don’t know, but be careful.” He said, just then one of the guys got sniped, “Where the hell did that come from?” I asked, “There on the roof. Okay boys, light them up!!!” Sgt Foley shouted and I did what he said I was hitting as many targets as I can, I blew up the trucks that were following us, and we finally made it to the rally point then we had to cut through a school. “Heather throw a flash and clear them out!” Dunn said, I did what he said and cleared them out. Then we finally made it to the rally point. It was over… But it had just begun. Dunn helped me out of the car and I stretched, then General Shepherd came over to me and another private, “Private Allen and Private Heather, I’m promoting you both.” He said, I looked at him, “Really?” I said, “Yes come walk and talk.” He said to us, he looked at me. “You both are going over to the task force 141, Heather you are a little familiar with the group already, go pack up and you leave tonight, sadly you can’t meet Captain MacTavish until he gets back from his mission on a Russian air base to retrieve a ACS (Attack Characterization System) … But Allen, I have a mission for you, See I’ve been scoping this guy Vladimir Makarov I want you to disguise yourself as a Russian and go with him and his men. Got it? Good luck to you both.” He said walking away I got my stuff and walked over to Dunn, “What was that about?” he asked, I looked at him, “I’m going back to the task force.” I said, he looked at me “Well when do you leave?” he asked, “Tonight…” I said, we both got back in the car and drove back to base, I walked into the mess hall and grabbed a phone and called my dad. “Hello?” he said, “Dad, I’m going back to the Task Force.” I said, “Really, why is that?” he asked, “General Shepherd said so. I leave tonight.” I said, “Well that’s good news sweetie.” He said to me, “Yeah I guess I should be a little happier, I’m just not ready to go back, by the way. Who is Vladimir Makarov?” I asked him, it was a short pause, and then he said something, “Sweetie I don’t know. But I have to go now. I love you.” He said, “I love you too dad.” I said hanging up the phone, I leaned against the wall and then Dunn came up to me, “You okay Heather?” he asked, I looked at him, “Fine, why?” I asked, “I was just wondering that’s all.” He said I just looked at him, “I mine as well start packing, I have to leave soon.” I said leaning off of the wall, I was getting ready to walk away but Dunn grabbed me by the arm and pulled me into a hug. “I’ll miss you Heather, but I’m sure I’m not the only one who will. Good luck, and don’t die. I’d love to see you again.” He said smiling, I smiled back, “You be safe too Dunn.” I said walking away. I had walked back to my bunk and packed up my stuff. I got on a Blackhawk which took me to the Task Force Base…. I was ready to fight back in the task force.
~Private Allan’s POV: Mission: No Russians. ~
The date was 9/30/2011 and I was working behind enemy lines with Makarov, the guy General Shepherd was telling me about, his men were armed heavily and we were about to kill tones of innocent men and women in a Moscow, it was crazy that I was killing them as well, but I had to do it… It was my job. After we killed everyone in the airport we made our way out back, they had a squad out there, we took them out, I was just waiting for this day to be over, then we reached the end, there was an ambulance waiting for us. “I think we sent them a really good message.” One of Makarov’s men said “That wasn’t a message…. This is.” Makarov said, and then his pulled the trigger and shot Private Allan. “Once they find the American, all of Russia will cry for war.” Makarov said……
~Heathers POV~
“They killed him? Now Americas in a war with Russia, this can’t be good.” I said, “We all know Makarov was behind this. But we will need proof.” Captain MacTavish said walking in, “You must be Private Anderson, and Shepherds told me that you’re good. You’ll have to be if you want to live.” He said to me, when I seen him, he looked like I seen him before. But I don’t know where. “Our first mission is in Brazil, we have to find the person that supplied the weapons to Makarov. Captain MacTavish said, “Then this will get us a lead on where he is?” I said, “That’s right Private Anderson.” He said to me smiling, “Now let’s get a move on, the longer we wait, the longer it takes to find this guy.” He said and we all moved out.
~In Brazil~
“Ghost have you found him yet? We stopped five times, came up empty… Wait we are about to stop again.” Captain MacTavish said, just then the guy started to fire and he killed our driver, “Roach, Anderson lets go, we have to get him on foot, Ghost our driver is dead we are going after Rio de Janeiro on foot, I repeat we are going after him on foot.” Captain MacTavish said, we all started running, I seen him, “Anderson shoot his legs, we need him alive!” Captain MacTavish said, I did that, “He’s not going anywhere!” I said, walking over to him… “Okay, Anderson, go with Roach, Meat and Motor to find Makarovs weapon dealer Alejandro Rojas, this may take a while.” Captain MacTavish said, I did what he said and when with them, it wasn’t long before the militias group attacked us, we opened fire taking them out, one by one, it was hard because it was their territory and they knew it well, they were on the roofs, in corners etc… “Looks like it’s just you and Roach Anderson, I want you both to be careful and find that other guy! He can give us a lead on Makarov!” Captain MacTavish said, we did just that, we stayed close and cleared out the roof tops and corners, “He’s getting away!!” I yelled, “Not on my watch!” Captain MacTavish said as he busted through a window spearing Rojas, We found out that Rojas and Makarov had an enemy, Prisoner #627 he is in poisoned in a Russian gulag. “Then we will go in and get him, maybe he can help us?” I said, “He just might.” Captain MacTavish said, we all had some time to rest before we head out. So we all went back to base, mourned the men we lost today and enjoyed a well earned hot meal.
~Back at the Task Force 141 Base~
I really wasn’t in an eating mood, so I grabbed some guns and went out to the shooting range… the one I remembered from 5 years ago, I remember standing here in range number two and going through lessons, it brought back memories, “I remember my first time in here.” A voice had said, I turned around, it was Captain MacTavish. He walked over to me, “I stood right here in range number one. I remember a girl she had to have been a year younger than me; I was 20 at the time. She stood right there where you’re standing. She was a great shooter, her name was Heather I believe, I never knew her last name. But she was great on the squad, listened well and wouldn’t leave a fallen person behind.” He said, I looked at him, “Wait… is your first name by any chance John?” I asked him, he had a look on his face like how in the hell does she know this, “Yes… why?” he asked me, I looked at him. “Because… I remember when I was standing here 5 years ago, a guy named John was right there, but you can’t be him… They called him soap, and no one here calls you soap.” I said, he looked at me, “Heather?” he asked, I said yeah to him answering him. “It is you!” he said I looked at him, “Soap... You’re my captain now?” I said smiling, he just hugged me, “It is you!” he said, “I knew you looked familiar, I just couldn’t put my figure on it.” He said, I smiled, “Right, I knew I seen you before, but five years was a long time.” I said, “Yes it was. I can’t believe it, that it’s really you.” He said “I know right, you look like you came far.” I said, “Same with you.” He said, “But you need to work on your shooting still.” He said I laughed, “Really?” I asked, “Yeah try holding your gun like this...” he said going behind me holding his hands against mines and making sure my body was matched up with his, and he grabbed my figure that was on the trigger and pulled it back slowly then I shot the gun. “See, like that.” He said, I turned my head and his was right there leveled up with mines, we both slowly leaned in and was about to kiss, “Captain MacTavish sir.” Ghost said coming in, MacTavish quickly pulled away and we both just looked at him, “Shepherd wants us to leave early in the morning sir, we have to rest.” Ghost said, “Okay you heard him Heather…. I mean... Private Anderson we have to go to bed early. Have a nice rest.” He said to me, “Yes sir.” I said walking away, “What was that about sir?” Ghost asked MacTavish, “Don’t worry about it. Let’s go we have a long day tomorrow.” Captain MacTavish said walking out of the firing range.
