READ FIRST! IMPORTANT INFO! So...I got more reviews than I thought I would, so now I'm going on with "The Hornets Nest" mission. You guys have to forgive me for the typos. I don't have Microsoft Word on my comp and I have to use Wordpad. But I'll try my best to avoid any mistakes!
LOL, I felt kinda weird listening to the band I was whenever writing this. If you must know, I was listening to Papa Roach. Between Angels and Insects is such a kick-ass song! Listen to it!
Roach's Mental Notes
August 7th, 2016
15:25
Captain Mactavish called some guy named Nikolai. Oh, and whaddiya know? Chemo is back all of a sudden. Where did he go, by the way?
"Nikolai we're at the top of the favela!" The Captain yelled into his headset. See? Why didn't he just use that instead of the stupid payphone...
So it turns out we STILL have quite a ways to go to get to the LZ. Oh, and whaddiya know? More tangos...
15:29
At least we're back together. And I'm not having to do all the work. Some guys just drove up in a truck. Oh, they have a mini-gun? Nice.
Fuck my life.
15:35
"Roach! Take out that machine-gunner!" Captain Mactavish yells into my ear. We're standing side-by-side and its not even that loud and he yells into my ear like a banshee. What happened to talking normally anymore?
"Alright, alright..." I muttered lazily back. Hey...its been a long day. And, hell, I am tired. I shoot the guy on the back f the truck and I hear the order for us to move up. I see Chemo running nearby and I waltz up behind him. "Where the hell we're you?" I yell.
He keeps running, but replies nonetheless. "Oh, I was having tea and crumpets with the Captain and Ghost. Meat and Royce were there, too. Where were you?"
I stared wide-mouthed at him, my brain literally short-circuiting. So I WAS right? I had to do all that work while they sat and took a break? Jesus Christ, what has the 141 came to? They should just call it the Task Foce Roach. That'd make more sense...
15:47
We're getting closer to the roofs now. Me and the Captain are hiding behind some old car, taking fire from both sides. All of a sudden, I see the car catch on fire and pretty much know whats coming. Too bad my brain can't work as fast as my mind.
It explodes, sending me flying through the air and for a second, all I could think was, "Kewl." because I was flying in slow motion like from an action movie. But then my head smashes into the cement road and then its not so kewl anymore.
I am a very lame individual. And half the man I used to be.
I look up, one of my eyes blinded with blood and see that the Captain merely flinched for a second and went straight back to shooting. Instant recovery for the lose. Royce is yanking me back up by my arm. "Come on Roach! Man up!" He yells at me, handing me my gun.
Let's see you man up after being tossed through the air like a rag-doll, idiot. It's not as easy as it looks.
16:02
Nikolai tried to land in a wide-spot for us, but some freaking tangos spawned outta nowhere, so now we have to climb onto the rooftops to get to the new LZ.
I watched wide-eyed as the Captain, Ghost, and the others jumped up onto the roof like they were ninjas or something.
...Did I ever tell you that I couldn't jump? Worth shit.
The Captain, luckily, helps hoist me up so all I have to do now is run. I don't risk jumping across the roof-tops so I tiptoe quickly across the boards connecting them. I can see Nikolai's pave low now and I'm just thinking that now I can finally take a well-deserved nap. But then I see it. Satan in gymnastic form.
There's a huge gap between this building and the next and I'm not so sure about that 20 drop down. I see The Captain and others jump across it with ease, so I'm thinking that if they can do it, I can. I take a deep breath and sprint towards the edge and will myself out into the air with everything I have. But my legs go retarded and soon I'm spiraling downward.
My hand catches the edge of the rooftops and its on of those pseudo-slow-mo moments again. I see Captain Mactavish diving for me, hand extended. "Roach!"
"Aw, shit, shit. shit,. help me!" I call out, but his hand misses mine completely and soon I'm tumbling downward towards the ground. Goodbye cruel world.
16:10
I had a strange dream. Something popped up in my vision. At first it was unclear, blurry at first, but then it cleared up.
I then realized that god was giving me words of wisdom. He's telling me how much a single Javelin missle costs. Okay, thats cool. I don't think I could ever buy one myself, but thanks for the info anyway.
16:15
I'm slowly coming to and I realize that I'm not dead. I survived a fall that should've snapped my spine in half and I can hear Captain Mactavish yelling into my headset. "Roach! Roach! Get up, Roach!"
Did I mention my head was pounding me?
"Roach, we can see you from the chopper. Enemy militia is closing in on you, there's dozens of them!" Ghost is yelling at me, too. Great.
"Head to the rooftops, Roach!" Captain Mactavish pipes back in. "We can't get you from there!"
16:18
I'm sprinting with energy I thought I never had. I thought I was Superman. I thought I was Captain America. Fuck, I'd kick Captain America's ass. I'm Roach, bitch.
16:20
You ever see the one Green Day video? I think it was 21 Guns or something like that. This girl and guy are randomly standing in this room and then all of a sudden, a bunch of bullets starts whizzing by and busting everything to hell, but they're not getting shot.
Well, that's kind've whats going on now.
16:22
The Captain tells me that they're running low on fumes and I only have 30 seconds now. I don't think now is the time for mindless thinking.
I slid down this rooftop and kind've busted through the window like in a movie or something. Hmm...I notice that I refer to my life as a movie a lot. You think someone is secretly directing all this and at the end of the day, they're gonna walk out from behind a curtain and be all like, "That's a wrap! Nice job on those stunts, Roach!" I mean, if you think about it, it actually makes a lot of sense.
Oh, wait...I'm doing it again...mindless thinking...
The pave low is right in front of me now. The Captain is telling me to jump for it.
To jump from a high-ass cliff onto a dangling ladder that doesn't even look stable.
'Legs, don't get retarded on me again...' I pray to myself. With everything left in me, I jump for the ladder. And by some ungodly chance, I actually make it. Damn. I really am bad-ass.
"He made it!" Captain Mactavish yells to the others.
"Where to, my friend?" Nikolai asks in his thick Russian accent.
"Just get us to the sub..." Mactavish replies.
Wait...what fucking sub? I was gonna take a goddamn nap! And they're telling me that we're going to a sub? What the hell are these guys? How do they keep freaking going like they do?
Oh, that's right. I do ALL of the work.
18:05
I am incredibly tired now. But the Captain tells me that we don't start our next mission until tomorrow morning. Something about an oilrig and Prisoner number 627...I could really care less now.
I'm just going to lie here in my hammock and sleep. Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sle-
"COCKROACH!"
I jump and end up smashing my head into the ceiling of the room. Why did I chose top hammock?
Then I feel something smash into my face. It was awfully soft, but it was also really fucking irritating. I realize that Meat, who's limping by the bunk, hit me with it.
"Did I squish it?" He asked after I removed the pillow. I glared hard at him, resisting the strong urge to stick my tongue out at him like a 5-year old.
"Hey Meat. Your ass looks great." I mutter sarcastically, staring at his bandaged wounds.
"Shut up, bug." He tugs on the edge of the hammock and sends it swinging. I nearly fall off. "If you don't eat now, then you're not eating anytime soon tomorrow."
Right now, I could care less about food. I wanted sleep. "Food is for fat people." I tell him, then go to lay back down.
"Sleeping is for pussies." He retorts and flips the hammock, making me fall onto the steel flooring. "Now come and eat, lazy-ass."
...Sometimes I really do hate Meat with the intensity of a thousand burning deserts. Did I tell you that yet?
18:11
I sitting at a table now in a make-shift cafeteria in the sub. I'm just staring blank-eyed at my food and I can't stop keeping my head from bobbing up and down. I am so tired...
I feel something slap down on the table hard and it makes a shark clink! noise, hurting my ears. The screeching of two chairs against steel tempts me to look up. I swear to god, if that's Meat...
"Looking tired, Roach?" I hear the Scottish accent and I'm a little relieved to see that its merely the Captain and Ghost.
Sometimes I wonder if they're capable of doing anything without each other. They're like twins almost...not in relation or anything, but how they kinda follow each other around...is it weird of me to be thinking about this sort of thing?
"Completely..." I say the word, but it comes out, sounding like mush. Ghost laughs at me. "Shut up." I snapped back. Usually a person wouldn't even dare talk to their superirors like that, but for some reason, Captain Mactavish and Ghost just really took a liking to me. And I had to say that I liked them a hella lot better then some other guys in the 141.
The Captain pats me on the back. "Ah, well...eat now, sleep tonight, you'll be fine in the morning." A grin stupidly at the thought of sleep and force myself to finish my food quickly.
21:32
It's so late. I'm so sleepy. But I can't sleep.
You ever get those gut feelings? Y'know, how people talk about instinct and crap? Yeah...I'm getting one of those feelings right now.
I don't know why, but it feels like I'm going to die in about 4, maybe 5 days from now. In some sort of fiery pit.
Not only that, but I've been having these really bad gut feelings about Ghost. I can't explain it. I feel like someone's going to take a .44 Magnum and shoot him point blank...
...Must be my imagination?
21:56
...I need to pee now. Shit.
Oh, poor Roach! He and Ghost's death in "Loose Ends" made my cry! I HATE Shepherd...whenever I threw that knife into his eye, I was like "FffuuuuuuuuckYESSSSSSSSSSS! Revenge is a GHOST!" I'm still hoping that Ghost comes back in MW3, but we all know that Roach did die...who could survive getting hurt in an explosion, shot point blank by a magnum, them burned to death?
At least with Ghost, he has a chance. Maybe Shepherd wasn't aiming all too good. And you do know that they put hardly any gas on Ghost...Maybe Toad and Archer, the snipers, saved him? I hope so...BUT IMMA MISS ROACH! NOOOOOOO!
*Errrrherrrmmmmmm* Please review! Leave luvs for Roach cuz god knows he needs them right now!
