Jaz POV
It was supposed to be a simple extraction of an American teen from a Somalia war lord, the teen had been at the wrong place at the wrong time. Though our plans never seem to go as planned and never seem to stay simple, but you don't because a part of a special ops team for simple and easy we go in when there is no plan. But for once we had hoped it would stay simple.
We had been in the car half way to the exfil when things started to go wrong. And even though we were half way there it was still over 4 miles away. It started as the road we wanted to take had been close because of a car crash up ahead. And in the middle of the city it happened.
"command we need an alternate rote, rode was closed" Dalton said looking ahead Amir was driving and Dalton was in shotgun. Samantha the teen we were trying to get out of here was in the middle between McG and I and Preach was in the back. She hadn't stop shaken sense we got her out of there.
"Turn left up ahead" Hanna says over the coms "go a mile down that road then hang a left and the next right. That will put you back on the road the exfil."
Right after we took the second right there was a loud bang and the car lurched to the right. Making Samantha whimper next to me.
"Hold on command we have a flat we'll get it fix and then we will be back on the road." Dalton said. McG and Amir got out to fix the flat, they were almost done when all hell broke lose and bullets were flying. Right as we started to return fire I was thrown back against the seat and left shoulder was on fire, and the world started to blur and black out.
Dalton POV
When the bullets started to fly I know we were in trouble. I look back to tell the other we were going to make a run for it, but me eyes landed on Jaz her head was leaning against the window and blood was seeping from the left shoulder. And we had to move know, but I don't know what to do my mind is spinning out of controlled the only though in my head is this can't be happening not to Jaz.
Preaches voice cuts through the fog and I start to come back to my senses.
"Command we need a place to hide we're under fire and Jaz is hit"
Not a second later Hanna has us a safe house to hide in.
"McG, Amir get in the car and get us out of here" I yell at them "Samantha get in the back with Preach. McG, Jaz is hit bad." I'm still looking back at her I can't take my eye off the slow rise and fall of her chest, I'm afraid of I do it will stop, and I won't know.
Three minutes later we're are at the safe house and McG hasn't let up the pressure on Jaz's shoulder since he got back in the car, but it's going to need a lot more work then just that.
"Preach, Amir get Samantha inside and safe" we all get out of the car except for Mcg and Jaz. I walk back the door behind him and open it up.
"Top we need to get her onto a kitchen table or something fast and she's gone need some blood."
"Alright I'll grab her you get the stuff you gone need, and you can take as much as she need I'll be fine." In this moment I have never been so happy to be a universal blood donner. I lean down and slide my arm under she legs and the other around her back. Carefully and quickly picking her up and taking her inside, with McG on my heels.
We get her set on the table then I pull up a chair and sit next to her. I hold down pressure as McG get and line running between us and her color starts to come back. Thou it doesn't stay for long with McG trying to get that bullet out of her shoulder. I don't know how long we have been at this kitchen table weather it been a minute or and hour, but it feels like an eternity before McG can get the bullet out.
"Well she's lucky it didn't hit anything to important, but it did tare her muscle to shred so she will be in a world of pain and not have much use of that arm. I'll give her a shoot of morphine now and leave another her for if she walkup"
By this point I'm starting to get a little light headed from the blood transfusion, but McG is bandaging her up, so the worst of it is over. I sit back in the chair and call all the guys over. "All right guys we are going to be all night so way don't we all try to get some sleep Preach take first watch then Amir then McG, and I'll take last."
With that everyone heads to try and find a place to sleep. Once I know everyone is settled I rest my arm on the table and grab Jaz right hand where I can feel her pulse before drifting off.
