( I've been recently playing Modern Warfare 2 and been hooked on it. Ghost became my favorite character and I decided to write a little fanfic between him and my OC Shiva. :3 I hope you enjoy. )
THUD. Being able to see nothing but blur in front of her, a figure of someone dragging her from her feet for what seemed like forever. A trail of blood followed her until they had come to a stop. Cuts and bruises had covered the silver haired female as she struggled to even stand up but was unable to. Fearing death was coming soon, she was mistaken when the captor spoke.
"How I would love to finish you off but…I would find it much more humiliating to leave you off to die" said a sadistic voice.
Right now the only thought going through was where exactly was she going to be dropped off and how was she going to die. If it took long enough she would die from loss of blood. At least trying to lift her head up, it was granted as the captor grabbed her head but then slammed it back on the ground. Hearing laughter with each thrust that was made, she was finally released only to be lifted up from the back of her cloak and hovered over something that was drawing in air. By this time her eyes were forcing themselves to close as her vision was slowly growing dark.
"Let's see how well you do when you are reduced to being a simple human" said the voice.
At that point she felt her body completely light and suddenly black out. Without realizing it she had been transported into another dimension. The location had plenty green around, light showers and buildings. Right where she had been dropped was somewhat of a hill and there were three buildings nearby: a long building that seemed to stretch from one side of the are to the other and was connected by yet another building that stood two stories high, a couple of shacks across from it and yet another building right above her. Right about now her blood was still pouring out of her and chances of dying soon were slowly going up.
Footsteps could be heard a couple of yards away and with it came voices. They were a small group from the military doing their daily patrol on the Underpass area when one of them spotted something.
"Sir, I think I see something over there" said one of them.
"Stay alert, someone come with me to investigate" said another.
Putting up his index and middle finger up and waving them over to what seemed like someone, they kept their weapons pointed directly at what was a body on the ground. Slowly coming up on it, one of the men stayed behind while the other walked slowly to the body and examined it carefully. From what he could see, the body wasn't strapped with anything and needed medical attention.
"It's clear, but we need to head back to HQ and report this" said the voice.
The other men nodded as one of them scooped up the body and headed out with the others back to HQ. It would be about a week until the silver haired female woke up from her slumber. Groaning upon waking up, there was a medic in the room keeping track of her vitals. Hearing her groan, the medic turned to face her.
"How do you feel, miss?" he asked.
"Hmm? Where am I?" she said.
"You're being taken care of by the military" he said.
"What happened?" she asked.
"You were found over at Underpass and you were in critical condition" he said.
"How so?" she asked.
"Massive bleeding for the most part, luckily no bone injury from what I could examine. A couple of cuts and bruises to add in. What is your name, miss?" he said.
"Shiva…Shiva Armetige" she said as she tried to get up.
Stumbling over, the medic proceeded to catch her and guide her back over to the bed.
"You're still healing, give yourself a little more time to finish healing up" he said.
To describe exactly where she was, it was a tent. There were a few cabinets surrounding her where it held all the medical supplies and two beds. It wasn't really spacious but it was comfortable enough to fit in maybe four people at once. Bandages covered her forehead and a couple were added on her left arm and leg to cover up her cuts and bruises. A man walked into their tent and stared over at them.
"She's finally awake. All she needs to do is rest up and she'll be fine" said the medic.
"Good, after she rests up we'll send her home" said the man.
"Is that what General Shepard ordered?" asked the medic.
"Yes. There is no use for her here" said the man.
Shiva was confused right about now. How did she even get here? What had happened before this? All these questions and nothing could be answered. Going home sounded good right about now. Laying back down on the bed, she went right back to sleep to finish up her recovery. The man who had entered the tent continued talking with medic about some 'abnormalities' she had and he couldn't figure out what it was. Unaware of the discussion, Shiva didn't wake up until the following morning only to be greeted by an older man wearing a barret with a patch that displayed "Task Force 141″, the standard military uniform and a semi lit cigar . Her eyes were quick to open and stay open once she felt that he had been watching her for a while.
"Miss, where did you come from?" he asked.
"Esther" replied Shiva.
"Where exactly is that located" he said.
"In Gala" said Shiva.
"There is no such place as Gala here miss" he said quickly pulling out an M9 and pointing it at her face.
"Who sent you" he demanded.
"No one. I don't even know how I got here" said Shiva.
There was a brief pause as the older male continued to point the gun at her and looked over his shoulder to get confirmation from one of his men. One of them happened to be the guy that had entered the tent before she went to sleep. He wore a balaclava that had the bottom half of the skull imprinted on it with goggles to conceal his entire head and the standard military attire as well. That man stared at Shiva and then looked over to the older man.
"She tells the truth" he said.
"You sure about that, Ghost?" said the older man.
"Positive" said the man named Ghost.
Staring straight at Shiva one more time, he lowered his gun to stuff it in its holster.
"Not sure if you're just extremely talented in lying or you're telling the truth, but…you've got some real guts for a pretty little lady such as yourself" he said.
"Ghost, set up her tent and bring her what she needs. If she's going to be living here, she better do her service to the military" he said.
Nodding to what he'd been ordered to do, Ghost left without saying anything.
"The name is General Shepard and I'll be your commanding officer. You will respond to my every orders and if you don't…death shall be the price" he said.
