A/N: It's been a while guys! Thanks to everyone that read the one shots and took the time to review. For anyone that's new, this is a sequel to In My Blood so be sure to read that first. As a heads up this fic will switch POVs but I'll be sure to indicate who's it is every chapter.
Since this fic covers the events that happen after the game it is going to get pretty damn dark at times. I'll try to post appropriate warnings in the A/Ns as needed, but I am a bit of a space case and there's a chance that I will occasionally forget. As a blanket warning the fic is based on an M rated game and as such will have similar content so expect the following to regularly occur: blood and gore, intense violence, strong language, and suggestive and outright offensive themes.
I will try to post regularly, I made sure to get a handful of chapters written already, but I'm not sure how often that'll be yet. Maybe once a week, maybe once a month, maybe sporadically... I don't know and I don't want to make any sort of promises given how well that worked out last time and how crazy life is at the moment. That said, chapter one will definitely be up next week. I don't own COD: Ghosts or COD: Ghosts - Devil's Breath or their characters etc. I do however claim responsibility for Charlie's snark and awkwardness, along with Ryder. As always, reviews are welcome.
"My name is Charlie Shea Walker and I won't break. My brother is David Walker and he goes by Hesh. My mother was Katherine Walker and she died when I was young. My father was Elias Walker and he's dead too. Rorke killed him."
It's humid here. I live in a pit. They keep me awake and let me sleep sporadically; they only take me out to try and break me. They try beating me into submission and waterboarding me for sport. When they get bored they bring out the electric rods, run current through me until I dance on my chains. Occasionally they throw in something new like bullet ants or poisons, mostly they just stick to the classics. It hurts but I won't let him win.
"My name is Charlie Shea Walker and I won't break. My boyfriend is Ryder Evans and he loves me. My captain is Thomas Merrick and he's like a brother to me. One of my best friends is Keegan Russ and he really doesn't talk much to anyone but me. We're all Ghosts. So is Hesh. So was my dad. Rorke wants to destroy us."
They try to give me food, but I won't take it. I know better than that. It's probably poisoned. I refuse water for the same reason. What little I take in is either from rain or bugs. Some of the ants here don't actually taste half bad. It's not enough though. I'm hungry, dehydrated and hallucinations have started but I can't let him win.
"My name is Charlie Shea Walker and I won't break. I'm 23. I'm a sister, a daughter, a friend, a lover and a fighter. I'm a Ghost, a soldier, a sniper and I can't break. Rorke wants me to."
Beating, waterboarding, electric prodding, repeat.
"My name is Charlie Shea Walker and I won't break. My team is coming for me. I can't give up, not like he did. Rorke broke."
Hit, water, shock, repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Tubes and restraints, gagging and tears.
"My name is Charlie Shea Walker... And I might break."
