So welcome to Into The Fray! Now quick notes before you begin.

1. I used to be Kaylahunter1217 and lost the password to my other account.

2. If you are ever impatient for a new update go onto that account and the other 29 chapters are there. But beware they need to be edited and there are certain things that I'm changing to make it better.

3. This story will contain gory details, sexual comments, sex (though it's not in incredible detail. Moer like the sex scene in a movie. It cuts before they get to the good stuff.), cursing (lots of it), and death.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Get him inside!" Emmett said "The safe house is just up ahead!"

"Keep moving!" Seth yelled.

"Out of the bloody way! Get a doctor! Keep pressure on that wound!" Jasper said.

Seth applied pressure to my wound trying to get it from bleeding. "I'm trying!" he yelled.

"Hang in there Edward!"

We ran right into a room where the doctor was working on his desk.

"He needs help! NOW!" Collin ordered.

"We are losing him! Charging in three... two.. one... Clear!"

Edward

He let his feet dangle from the edge of the helicopter as it flew towards base. His gun was in his hand already beginning to cool from their more recent encounter with insurgents. Seth was behind him trying to keep still as Jasper did his best to patch him up.

"Man remind me not to get shot again!" Seth said.

"No problem." he said rolling my eyes.

Seth was young, about a year out of officer school, but he was bright. He knew exactly what to do in intense situations and always kept his cool. So when he had been put in his team he had made him his right hand man. So he was right underneath me in the chain of command, he was the first lieutenant. He was the Captain of this group for about four years and never once have they failed. And it's not just because of him but because of the teamwork and sense of family they have built up over the years. It's a big job and it was a lot of hard work to get here but it was worth it.

My foster brothers Emmett and Jasper were next in line, with Jasper being Second Lieutenant and Emmett being Sergeant Major. Jasper was the best with battle strategies and tactics, so he was head of mission briefing. Emmett was best at hand-to-hand combat so if we need to tackle a guy, Emmett was the one to do it. Collin was my best friend in high school and our comms guy, whenever your radio was broken or you want to call in evac he's your guy. He's fresh out of Spec Ops school, but I know I can trust him. Because I am the one that trained him.

Brady loved anything with an engine which is how he and Jacob had met. He could drive every vehicle known to man so he was our main driver. And last but not least was Jacob, I have had some rocky experiences with him when his anger got the best of him but overall he was a great soldier. He liked to spray bullets all over the damn place so he felt right at home with the heavy machine guns.

Our team was called the Vipers. Stealth came easy to us and we were know to strike quick and strike hard. Today was our last day before we were shipped back home, right on time for my foster sister Alice's birthday.

"Hey Frost!" The pilot yelled at me. "When are you going to get a girlfriend man?"

My team began to crack up. It was an old joke, my whole team either had girlfriends or wives except me and Seth.

"When your scrawny ass goes out into the field." I said.

The pilot laughed. "Then never Captain?"

"Never. There's no girl that has caught my eye yet." I said.

"Well you can't run away from love man."

"I'll give it my best shot." I said.

After another thirty minutes of flying we reached Camp Lancer and my team jumped off the helicopter.

"Hey get me a medic will ya!" I shouted towards a few soldiers.

They ran off into the camp and I helped get Seth on a stretcher.

"You doing alright Seth?" Jacob asked.

"I feel like hell, but I'll live." he groaned.

We picked up Seth and carried him inside while Emmett stayed back to grab our gear. We ran down the white and brown halls until we got to the infirmary. The doctor rushed from his desk and grabbed his white apron.

"What happened?"

"Sniper shot, 50. caliber. About 5 miles out. Probably broke in a few fragments upon impact." I replied.

"Alright well who is the medic in your team?"

"That would be me." Seth groaned.

"Well someone go fetch another doctor please?"

Jasper left the room quickly shouting for a medic.

"Collin take our guns and put them in the armory will you?" I said.

"Yeah sure." Collin said. We handed him our guns and he jogged out.

"Hey doc' easy on the tweezers please." Seth said.

"Sorry. Edward was right it's split in fragments. I'm going to have to knock you out in order to take them out."

"Do it." he groaned.

Another doctor stepped in.

"All of you need to leave if you want us to do a good job." the new doctor said.

"Of course let's go." I said.

We filed out and I lead them straight to the barracks. Everyone went their separate ways and I head towards the showers. I quickly scrubbed off all of the dirt and mud off of me and made sure to get the small pieces of grass and shrub still stuck to me from today's camouflage. I turned the shower off and put on an old Marine Corps Trainer t-shirt and gym shorts. He went to his bed and grabbed a few duffel bags from underneath his bed. He stuffed it with his clothes, family pictures, and his mother and father's flag.

His real mother and father were supposedly in the Army and got killed in action during a search and destroy mission. He didn't even know them, not even the faintest trace of a smile. Esme and Carlisle took him in when the whole world heard his story, about the boy whose parents were in the Army and died in Iraq.

"Doing some early packing?" Emmett said.

"We ship out tonight. This isn't early packing, it's late packing." I said.

"True." Emmett shrugged.

It was silent for a moment and I knew he had more to say.

"Spit it out Emmett."

"Alice has a friend coming over today. Jasper saying she's good looking."

"So basically you guys are planning to set us up?"

"Precisely. So suck it up man because you're going to get to old and no girl will want you." Emmett said with a smile. He walked out ending the conversation.

Did he want to get setup with a girl he didn't know? Of course not. Sure she trusted the men under his command in battle, but when it came to girls they were not the brightest. Everytime he went out with a girl they tried to "pair" him up with she ended up leaving looking pretty offended like I punched her dog. So he had stopped going out on these dates to spare everyone the pain.. He tried to push it out of his mind and closed his eyes.

"Sniper! Get down!" Emmett screamed.

BOOM!

"Man down! Man down!"

"Someone go get him I'll cover!" I said.

He shook his head. His recent battle was getting to his head. He tried not to think about the amount of men he killed today. He focused on Alice's birthday, she didn't know they were coming back and he hoped she won't hurt him for not telling her. He shouldered his duffels and walked out of the barracks and to the airfield. He spotted their ride and went right towards it. The sun was fading on the horizon making everything beautiful in it's purple and orange light.
