Jack had just recieved a call he never thought he recieve again. The military, they wanted him back, they said just for one mission then theyd leave him alone. Of course Jack being who he was didnt refuse. He was suppose to report to the nearest base in 3 hours since the call. He needed to say goodbye to his daughter though.
"Kim?" He knocked on her apartment door. She pulled open the door and smiled. She always liked when her father visited her. She ushered him inside the apartment, that she and Chase had shared. They had just recently gotten married, a month ago, and now she had moved into Chases' apartment. It was a nice apartment, just big enough for 2 people, but not to big. It was perfect.
"Hey dad" She said while ushering him inside. "Hows it going?"
"Um...Kim, I just wanted to say good bye before I left, I am sort of in a hurry" Jack got right to the point, confusing Kim immensely.
"What do you mean? Where are you going?" She asked.
"The army called me, They told me I was the only one that could pull off this mission. I could not refuse them" Jack explained.
There was a long silence, Kim had contemplated about begging her father to stay, to stop going on these dangerous missions, he had enough trouble staying alive at work. The armys' missions were always undoubtfully more dangerous, but she knew she wouldnt be able to persuade him out of it. She was silently defeated before she started even.
"How long will you be gone?" Kim asked.
"They said 3 weeks at most" Jack smiled weakly, pulling his daughter into a farewell hug. Kim snuggled in for a long good hug, one of the last ones for awhile.
"Be careful" Kim said, as Jack started to pull back.
"Dont worry, Ill be back before you know it" He smiled then left for the base.
Later at the Base...
"So you want me and the team to go into the highly guarded palace and assisnate this person?" Jack asked reading over, once again, the objective of the mission. It seemed relatively easy, at least on paper. The palace was located in the city of Baghad(sp?), the capital of Iraq.
"The plane is waiting for you now, the team should be on their way to Iraq as we speak, This will be a quick and fast mission" The commander of the base explained.
"Thats what they always say..." Jack mumbled, shuffling the papers back into the file and heading off towards the plan.
2 Weeks later...
"Alright men, this is the day, we can get this done and get home to our families faster" Jack spoke to encourage the men infront of them. Each one of them in full camoflauge drag, along with himself. Armed with rifles and hand guns. This was the day they would break into the palace. This is the day that will end this mission, and then he can go back to his life, his family, and his job.
"Lets Go" He signaled his men as they went to their perspective places.
Jack then gave the go to enter the palace, as soon as he was about to enter himself, he realizes its a trap. He shouts for everyone to retreat from the building, but its too late.
Another 2 weeks later...
The army was starting to wonder why Jack and his team had not returned to the base. They get suspisicious as they send a team to search the area for them. They come apon the palace, its burnt down. The back-up team rushs to the fallen palace to find bodies everywhere, all the soldiers on Jacks' team were dead, they found everyone's body, except for Jacks'.
