Hello. This is my first fanfic about MGS. For disclaimer, all the characters are belong to Fookin Coon Army(Konami) and created by Hideo Kojima and there are a few original characters of my own creation. So, here's the opening chapter

And before the opening, there are a few things I would like to say that I can't write in the summary and very related to the story. If it's going as planned, the story will stretch all the way to MGR and there will a few major flops of climax in the story of everything going as planned. Anyway, here's the opening chapter

Prologue

1987….. Afghanistan, the land which perpetuated in war in 1980s, has now rejoiced by the statement of President Gorbachev. A statement that finally ended all the death, sorrow, and pain for the people of Afghanistan whose home and life are scorched by the never-ending attack of MIGs and Hinds and of course, relieve for the Soviet's families which endure in the time of war by living in hope for their love ones returning and assurance for a victory in the "primitive" desert outcast. Even though the Soviet failed to achieve their "Warm Water" political agenda, it's a far more viable to retreat and return home due to the lack of budget to fund the war and modernized their military's arsenal against the Americans which has introduced the world into materialism and benefits of being capitalist.

While the Soviet has announced their retreat from Afghanistan, there are a few "puppets" in the string of Moscow to established a totalitarian dictatorship and restored communism in Afghan land. The Mujahideen, which has sorted all of their resources for the war against USSR, now needs to fight their own brothers and sisters to strengthen the victory in a jihad against a totalitarian communist establishment. And in that fight, that's where Tixij played her role.

She went on the hunt on her own, butchering every soviet and pro-soviet soldiers, from the northern mountainous part of the country and inside the capital, Kabul. She made her stand against those who oppress the innocence and commit killings, rape, and scorching earth to put them down under the authoritarian rule. She made a long line of hit list where she started from the bottom to the top. Starting from the regular soldiers and all the way to their generals and also the Afghan communist's ministries are in the list and she made it halfway at the time. During the time of her assasination, she clouded herself from the people she saved and her action of killing the oppressor hailed her as the guardian angel of every tribe in Afghanistan even though they never see their savior. She spent most of her time alone in solitude, away from people no matter who they were. However, she's happy and willing to help anyone in distress, especially the ones that causing the distress was on her hit list. She travelled in the same place she operate during her time with Diamond Dogs with a few exceptions of making a few trips to the capital to narrow down her hit list . The butterfly flapped her wings and all to redeemed herself from the bad deeds she committed, especially to Snake….

When she's not operating or assassinate anyone, she rested in a used secluded cave in the mountains. The cave was used by a few groups of Mujahideen but left abandon after the soviets raided the area a few years ago. Afterwards, it remains empty and the area around was barren and quiet and people rarely passed the area, even the soviets and mujahideen. The cave still sturdy in the inside and comforting as natural errotion crafted a sustainable air conditioning system throughout the cave. She found the cave a few weeks before creating her hit list and occupied it as her own FOB and home. During the day when she's not going to kill anyone, she climbed the mountains and bathed on the top while humming her song on the air. She enjoyed the company of a few eagle and crows which perched around the cracks not far from her spot. She often observed the birds in the act to amused herself other than humming and bathing. She often tried to call the birds, hoping one will feel alluded by her call and became her pet. If she's done with sunbathing, she'll took a real bath in the river upstream. For a mountainous landscape, the river is very calm and clean. She often bathed naked without her attire in the river while enjoying the sun on her skin. She always ready her Wicked Butterfly and a standard handgun in case of a surprise attack or a plain stalker behind the rocks. The combination of a bright sunlight and natural warm water increased her endurance and feel refreshed more than she ever felt.

During the night, she rested inside the cave and planned her hit list with the help of a few sufficient lightings from an old rusting generator. A part of the cave was dedicated as her strategy wall and all the walls and tables were filled with papers of maps, documents, and another extended info which she copied from a stolen iDroid from a PF operator which sometimes enter her area of operation. After the planning, she cleaned and prepared the gears she needed for her mission. While she didn't have the need for a weapon arsenals filled with formidable weapons and equipments, she only needed her suppressed Wicked Butterfly and a suppressed pistol and a bowie knife as she operates under the depth of darkness and silence.

However, in a few moments, she contemplated her life before her exit, especially the time she spent with Snake. Her time in with Diamond Dogs may not be the best in terms of socializing since she received death threats from the man, especially the part where they alienated her due to her inhuman capability, but their boss, Snake, he gave her the opportunity to make amends for all the wrong doing. And because of it, She often took a look of the photo of herself while she remembering the moment the portrait was taken as it was the only artifact that related herself back to him after three years. She was staring out of the window and into the horizon while sitting in the chopper with the great Big Boss. The photo reminded her the click from the Polaroid Camera and seeing the Paper coming out. Big Boss then took the photo and illuminate the paper with sunlight. It took a few seconds for the photo to be clear and the whole portrait is visible for the eyes to see.

"This is a keeper." said the Boss with his heavy stoic voice. He pinned the picture with a duct tape on the cabin wall on his left and made sure the picture is perfectly placed with all the pictures of his life in Diamond Dogs.

He stared back at her and ask, "What do you think?" while giving a half smile.

She replied with a sheepish small smile, admiring the beauty of her own face and of course, the opportunity life has given to her to redeemed her mistake. The man, which save her from evil, has given her a life to live even though it's still far from a normal one like an ordinary simpleton. The man also showed her with good deeds and a peaceful meaning of life even though the man himself isn't a perfect candidate for a peacemaker or let alone, a good man in the eyes of the world. But she admired his stoic emotion and still committed goodness to everyone while he can and she falls for him by that standard. She never met a man like him, a man with resilient stronger than his enemies and a strength which never faded by time and the only man who care for her while no one care and even called her a freak. She loves and adores the man, but never know if he love her back or even develop a feeling for her and she was forced to break her own words to save her love and left the scene to save him even more from the parasite which will kill everyone, including him. Remembering the moments and the days with Snake brought her down with a few regrets of never paying his debt no matter how many people she has killed under his order or the number of times she cover him. The only time she has a meaningful life was with him and she left it for the sake of her new profound morality.
