"This isn't the right choice"

"For you or for me?"

"For all of us"

"Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were getting abducted with me"
I raise my eyebrows

"Enough ghost"
Price says

"This by far is the dumbest decision you've ever made captain"

"Adira is accepting the mission and we'll capture wolf even if he's not alive. Then we're done"

Ghost frustratedly laughs, turning away
"He's not the only one who won't be alive"

"Excuse me?"
I say walking closer to ghost

"Enough"
This time, price shouts loudly. He puts his hand on ghosts chest and slowly pushes him back

"Get out of here and get ready"
He says to ghost

Ghost walks out and price turns to me

"You'll be fine. I know you will"

"Thank you Price"

"No. Thank you for putting your trust in me"

I trust Price. I am more than capable of living, but if I do die, there isn't a way of them knowing until after the four days

"Wolf will more than likely keep you in the small cell. It's dark and has no bar doors. A solid room. If you do anything stupid, he will move you to a cell with bars, and a fence surrounding it in case you get out"

"Seems like a real treat"
I smile

"Adira-"

"Relaaax. I'm just joking"

"When you get there.. Comply Adira"

"I get it. Comply"

"Alright then. Let's get this over with"
He flips his gun over his back

I turn around and begin to walk away

He gently grabs my arm
"Ah Ah- no guns. We're not trying to get you killed"

"Hmm that's funny because"

"Shut it"
He laughs between his words interrupting me
"Let's get in the truck"

I follow behind and head out the door.
We get to the truck and the team is already in

"Good morning gaz, soap, Alejandro... Ghost"
Ghost had his head resting in his palms cupping his face. He looked agitated and refused to answer. The rest looked calm and collected, or perhaps they were gathering the fact that this was actually happening. I sit down by ghost who is to the right, and soap is to the left

"You ready for this hotshot"
Soap says

"always"
I give him a nod

"Don't pull anything young lady, you're already on their list"
Alejandro says

"Always encouraging words, Alejandro"
I joke and he shakes his head
