Life On Helghan.

OK been busy with MK online lol and the PSN coming back up and everything, you know how it is, anyway chapter 14 is here.

Chapter 14

My attaempts to sleep through the night had failed since I'd been out most of the day my brain didn't need the rest, the morning after my long night of boredom the doc came round and spoke to me.

"How are you feeling this morning Captain Lente?"

"Ready to get out of this bed and put my uniform back on."

"Well let me run a few tests on you to find out your mental state and we'll see what happens."

"OK."

The doctor got with the testing and after he'd finished he told me I was in peak mental condition and that he'd send word to the Chairman of my state, I melted back under the covers, I just wanted to get up and get working, I could go to the Chairman's office myself for Visari's sake.

I was waiting three hours before I saw Stahl walk through the door and come toward my bed.

"I got a message about you being fit to get back to work, if that's the case why didn't you come to my office?"

"I wanted to but it was the doctor who told me to wait here for you and said he was gonna send a message, believe me I'd rather not have spent three hours lying here doing nothing waiting for you."

"Oh yeah let me guess Dr Velash, he's far too cautionary with his patients and doesn't like letting them get up and walk out alone if he can help it, fuck he doesn't even like discharging them, very odd man...anyway come on."

I jumped out of bed finally and followed him out of the sick bay, outside the door he stopped and turned to me.

"Right now that's done you get your arse to the lockers and put your uniform on then come to my office."

"Yes sir."

I went to get my uniform then went to his office, outside I knocked, this was the first time I'd knocked on somebody beside the late Colonel Radec's door so I wasn't expecting a 'come in' straightaway, I jumped when I heard it and went inside.

"Right Lente...I've got some bad news, your friend Captain Hakha has been captured, normally I'd abandon him but you two are VERY effective as a team and you need him back more than I do to remain effective, so I've decided to authorise you to take a team of men with you to get him back, they'll be under your command, as far as I know from intel the marines got lucky after the captain made a slip-up, I never should've sent him out on his own anyway his job was to sabotage a plan by these marines to disrupt our supply routes in the southern wastes, they're using guerilla tactics. I'll be sending you to the mission site then it's up to you to track them down."

"Yes sir, I'll bring him back or won't be back at all."

I turned to leave but Stahl called my name and I stopped.

"Good luck."

I left the office and headed to the landing pad where the men along with two dropships were waiting for me, there were a lot more men than I was expecting, I spoke to them.

"Listen up boys, we're on a track and rescue mission, we'll be getting dropped off at the target's last known location and then it's up to us to track and rescue him, enemy resistance expected is minimal but we should be ready for anything, OK everyone board the dropships and we'll get going."

I got onboard wondering where we'd get dropped off.

End of chapter 14.

Well there we go chapter 14, if anyone's figured out what I'm hinting at then send me a PM and I'll explain why I'm hinting at it lol, and please don't put any spoilers in the reviews.
