Chapter 1

Why am I Here?

Cate

Why am I here? I wanted to god damn escape. Look, I'm going to explain this once, so listen. My name is Private Monique Cate and Cate is pronounced like 'cat'. I would rather be called cat then cate. I lived in town as mechanic's daughter. I like being a mechanic, in fact, it was the only fun thing to do in that place. In order to get out of the town, I had three options: die, a sports scholarship, or join the army. Hell, I get to shoot other assholes. Nothing is worse than being stuck in place in the middle of nowhere, right? … Shit, I jinxed myself, didn't I?


R.C.

Why am I here? I didn't have a choice. My name is Private Sean R.C. There is a reason for R.C. but I've told that story 100,000 times and today will not be one of those times. I'm let's say… I'm a wild card. At least that's what, the jail counselor liked to call me. When going there 5 times, they got tired of seeing me. They basically kicked me out sent me to be blown the hell up. In hindsight, that was a pretty smart plan. So now I'm in the army. Hell, it's better than jail… I am going to regret those words. Eh, I'll be fine.
