Chapter 1

The eight SAS soldiers from K Unit and B Unit were on exercise when they found her. It had been Wolf, the leader, who had seen her as he was at the front of the arrowhead formation, which was best for crossing wide, open spaces that were at risk. Wolf halted the squad, they went down on one knee straight away, and then after ten second they went down on their belt buckles, pointing their SA80 rifles in front of them. Wolf got up and went over to the girl who was propped up against the pole of the beacon.

"Hello?" Wolf asked but there was no response. He stood in front of her and noticed her eyes were closed.

"Snake," Wolf called to him. "I don't think she's asleep!" Snake came over to have a look but he couldn't get a response either.

"What do you think we should do?" snake wondered.

"Get her back to the barracks, get her warm and try to find out why she's here." He told him. "Ok? I'll take the squad back; you stay behind us with her."

"OK" with that he picked up the girl up in his strong arms and walked behind the squad as they patrolled back to base.

As soon as they got back, B Unit went to the classroom to assess the exercise they had just done. While K Unit stayed with the girl. Eagle went to see the Colonel, to ask what they were going to do with her. He explained the whole story.

"Well, I guess she'll have to stay here…for now. "

"Ok, Sir," he saluted the officer and left his barrack.

Eagle went back to K Unit's barrack where the girl was laid on Wolf's bed. Snake had put a blanket over her in hope she would warm up.

After about twenty minutes she woke up. Fox offered her a glass of water; she took it and drank it down quickly.

"Where am I? She asked handing the glass back to Fox.

"The Brecon Beacons." He replied, putting the glass by the white sink. He had so many questions to ask her.

"What's your name?"

"Amelia and yours?" she asked, Fox hesitated, was he to tell her his code name or his civilian name.

"Fox," he told her.

"What about the others?"

"The black guy is Wolf, tall guy is Eagle and Snake is our medic, he is the one who brought you in."

They carried on with their small conversation until Fox asked what she was doing in the Brecon Beacons alone.

"Looking for a family member, my brother." She went to get the photo out of her pocket but it was no longer there.

"Oh no, my photo, it's gone! That's all I had left of my family!" A tear pricked her eye and ran down her cheek and dripped off her chin onto the covers, where it stayed for a few seconds before soaking in. She started checking frantically in all her pockets but found nothing. She scanned the floor; there it was trapped under the mat, which was in front of the door. Amelia wiped back a second tear that threatened to fall, and then pulled back the covers to get out of the uncomfortable, military style bed. She had got up too fast and had a small dizzy spell which meant she had to sit down for a few seconds. After it had passed, she stood up and went over tot the door mat, where the photo lay. She picked it up as if it were a piece of gold. She held it in her hands, wishing she could remember the day it was taken, but she tried and tried again to search her memory but it never came back to her, not even the slightest. She held back the tears and went over to where Fox was standing.

"Here..." Amelia held the picture up to the light do he could see it. She pointed to the boy she assumed was her brother.

"When did you last see him?"

"I can't remember. The accident wiped my memory."

"Go on, " Fox urged.

"I was told that I had been on holiday, we went to, erm, where was it? Italy! But on the way back, the plane had crash landed into the airport after being hijacked; I guess I was just lucky"

"Gosh, it mist be hard loosing someone like that." He thought back to his loving parent back in Liverpool.

"What about your brother?"

"Apparently I was the only survivor and after all the bodies were recovered and identified, none of them were my brother!"
