August 5th, 2044 - 05:55:45, Latin American Federation Black Site POW Camp, Amazon Rainforest, Brazil, despite the walls closing in, Sergeant First Class Logan 'Nightfall' Walker and General Alexandra 'Mother Wolf' Makarov discuss about their wants and needs. Even without the Latin American Federation around to confirm things.
Mother Wolf: Hmm, you have five minutes. Go on.
Logan: Orders are orders, ma'am. So I shall.
[explosion]
[gunfire]
[distant American chatter]
Activision
Logan: Throughout my entire life, I loved and remained faithful to the United States of America, as expected from someone who has chosen to take up arms. But despite everything I have done for her and her people, big or small, consequential or insignificant, they have always preferred the father-son team that consists of my dad and my older brother. And now the Ghosts are in the mix. Well, I wanna change that.
Mother Wolf: What could you possibly want to change?
[gunfire]
Infinity Ward
Logan: The fates of our missing units and the way America sees me. I want to bring them back, but under my uncontested command. I want my country and countrymen to finally know who I am and why I exist. I only got used to being unrecognized because of family. What the fuck could I do back then?
Mother Wolf: So you want to stage a coup d'etat in the United States? Hmm, what do I get from this?
[gunfire]
Neversoft
Logan: You? I ain't just talking about you, I'm also talking about the Latin American Federation.
Mother Wolf: We will get to that. In the meantime...
[explosion]
Logan: Freedom. Freedom to do whatever you want in the world and to the world, no interventions. We might even support you. And there will be no Task Force Stalker, no Colonel Elias 'Scarecrow' Walker and no Second Lieutenant David 'Hesh' Walker to thwart you. Justice for me, vengeance for you. All of these, to start.
[gunfire]
Raven
Mother Wolf: *smiles* I like the sound of that, Logan. Or should I call you "Nightfall". Rorke was right when he told me you were wise. I am not built like most generals. I do not punish people for seeing through bullshit, others or even my own. I reward them. Offer your loyalty and services to me and you shall leave this prison as Colonel Logan 'Nightfall' Walker, the new commander of the Federation Special Operations Phantoms. Help us drive the United States Military out of South America and we will fully support you in your coup d'etat until victory and victory only. So, do we have an agreement?
Lockdown: (quietly) Ready breach.
[beep]
Starlight: (quietly) Breacher up.
Logan: Breach incoming.
Mother Wolf: Stay here, I will be right back. *cocks Glock 19*
[explosion]
Lockdown: Sergeant First Class Logan 'Kid' Walker, call out!
[Glock 19 fire]
Starlight: Contact!
[Remington R5 fire]
Breaching and clearing the Maximum Security Area of the Black Site POW Camp is a six-man Task Force Stalker team looking for Logan. But Mother Wolf is able to ambush and kill four of them before engaging the last two in hand-to-hand combat.
During the chaos, the Sergeant First Class pulls a pin out of his wrist and unlocks his cell door. Just as the fight between the General, the Ghost team leader (Lockdown) and his female teammate (Starlight) is about to come to an end.
Starlight: Argh!
Mother Wolf: A woman playing operator. Interesting.
Lockdown: Drop your weapon and get on the ground, NOW! We have you outmatched!
Mother Wolf: I do not take orders from American scum. But unlike your friend, I know what I can do and what I cannot do.
[P226 fire]
Lockdown: *screaming in pain*
Logan kneecaps Lockdown.
Mother Wolf: I will take that as a "Yes", Nightfall.
Logan: You guessed right. Lockdown. Didn't think Zodiac would send you and your team in for me.
Lockdown: We should've killed you when we had the chance, you fucking KID!
Logan: Good to see you too, LT Commander. Starlight? And I thought you were just our armorer.
Starlight: I'm more of a Ghost than you'll ever be, Kid! You've disrespected us and your family for the last time!
Logan: Quite the contrary, First Sergeant. I'm not done making a mockery of you and my family for what y'all did to me. *smiles*
Then the commander of the Latin American Federation, General Aurelio 'Prime Grandmaster' Almagro comes in with Mother Wolf's AK-15 rifle. Accompanying him are two unidentified female operators from possibly two unrecognizable factions.
Mother Wolf: Captain Sonja Liu, Sergeant Major Cora Windsor, secure our new prisoners.
Sonja: On it, ma'am. Hi there.
[Logan smiles]
Cora: Copy, Mother Wolf. Hello there.
[Logan winks]
Lockdown: What the fuck?! I don't know who you're working with, Kid, but Zodiac will have all your heads for this!
[Logan laughs]
Gen. Almagro: Mother Wolf, you are okay. *gives AK-15 to Mother Wolf* What the hell is HE doing out here?!
Mother Wolf: He is the new commander of the Special Operations Phantoms, Prime Grandmaster. So please, show him some respect if you want him to be loyal. Colonel Logan 'Nightfall' Walker.
Gen. Almagro: Mother Wolf, I am not sure about him—
Mother Wolf: What other choice do we have then, huh?! Nightfall saved my life and joined us because America betrayed him. We owe him, so he is coming with us. Besides, we are going to need his help in the war YOU started and YOUR FRIEND RORKE failed to finish! Am I understood?
Gen. Almagro: Yes, Mother Wolf, loud and clear. *extends right hand* General Aurelio 'Prime Grandmaster' Almagro.
Logan: *shakes Prime Grandmaster's hand* How do you do? It's a pleasure to meet you. Now, let's move out quick or all of you will be next in maximum security.
Mother Wolf: Agreed. Grandmaster, Cora, keep Lockdown and Starlight close and moving. Nightfall, Captain Liu, we're on point.
Prime Grandmaster: Mother Wolf, you need to hang back. General's place is at the rear.
Mother Wolf: Not this general. Not since you failed to accomplish your dream.
Sonja: You still up for a gunfight, friend?
Logan: *kicks up Remington R5 ACOG Sight* Always. Let's move, ladies. *smiles*
Cora: Mmm, I like him already.
With a new friendship, not an alliance but a friendship, made, the deadly interview of Colonel Logan 'Nightfall' Walker for his position in the Latin American Federation begins.

Upon leaving the Maximum Security Area, Logan, Mother Wolf and Sonja engage the 75th Ranger Regiment supporting element Task Force Stalker brought along. And without a single thought of hesitation, the new Colonel kills his former comrades with semi and fully automatic rifle fire, and lethal hand-to-hand attacks.

[melee hits]
[crack]
[choking]
[P226 fire]
Sonja: You don't even need a knife. Impressive.
Logan: An unwritten benefit of being a combat medic, Sonja.
Once at the surface, since the Maximum Security Area is underground, Mother Wolf's squad, callsign: Wolfpack, faces a lot of Rangers. With that, she and Logan decide to level the entire camp with an bombing run from United Nations' air forces above.
Cora: That's a LOT of Rangers!
Sonja: What's with all this manpower?
Logan: Rescuing the other POWs here could be secondary. I might have been the primary objective.
Lockdown: You know nothing, Kid!
Starlight: Rangers, Target: Kid is a fucking tra—
[punch]
Cora: Shut it, bitch!
Logan: With the Ranger Regiment here and our friendlies falling apart, we can't shoot our way out! We need a fast extraction and a danger close fire mission, Spirit of Fire style!
Mother Wolf: Way ahead of you, Nightfall! A United Nations flight of twelve Su-47s is on station to level this place on our word! To survive, we need to get to my chopper on top of the Main Building!
Logan: I see it! Despite their capabilities, Army Rangers can still get outmaneuvered and killed! On me!
Sonja: Got your back, Nightfall!
Cora: Right behind you, new guy!
The Colonel, the General and the Captain proceed to carve a path through the Ranger squads ahead, with Prime Grandmaster, the Sergeant Major, Lockdown and Starlight trailing behind. Once on the roof of the Main Building, they board Mother Wolf's U.N. sponsored MH-X Silent Hawk gunship/transport helicopter hybrid and call in the bombardment.
Mother Wolf: I have the controls!
Logan: Come on! Come on! Let's go!
Cora: Get the fuck in there, Ghost!
Prime Grandmaster: You heard her, MOVE!
Mother Wolf: Sonja, call it in!
Sonja: (off comms) Roger, ma'am! (on comms) Wolfpack 3 to Firestorm 1 Actual. How copy, over?
Firestorm 1: Firestorm 1 here, Wolfpack 3. Go ahead.
Logan: Last man!
Sonja: Captain, requesting danger close fire mission on the Black Site POW Camp. Leave no trace or enemy survivors, over.
Logan: Interesting plan, Mother Wolf!
Firestorm 1: Understood. We are inbound, ETA: 15 seconds.
15 seconds later, Wolfpack Team is at a safe distance away from the Latin American Federation Black Site POW Camp. And the U.N. flight of twelve Su-47 Berkuts arrives and bombards the entire facility, leaving no survivors or even anything left.
[explosions]
Logan: Holy shit. Su-47 Berkuts? I thought the Russians scrapped that jet.
Mother Wolf: They did, but the United Nations were able to take their blueprints and make them for their own air force.
Logan: Cool. So, how did my interview for the Federation Special Operations Phantom go?
Mother Wolf: It went brilliantly, Nightfall. You did well today. I knew I made the right choice bringing you in.
Sonja: You sure did, ma'am. Very nicely done, Colonel.
Logan: Thank you, ma'am, Captain.
Prime Grandmaster: Rorke was a Ghost, Nightfall was a Ghost. How are they any different, Mother Wolf?
Mother Wolf: Unlike Rorke, Logan is fully healthy. I never needed to torture him, let alone brainwash him. Torture and brainwashing can negatively affect one's capabilities and awareness. And he is young. Rorke was not a young man anymore when he became one of us. He had gotten slow, careless and subpar in the field. Spent more time in the rear than in the front despite being one of America's best operators. That is why I believed he was not a good investment before you even started. *looks at Nightfall* You, on the other hand, I see a bright future ahead of you. Keep up the work you did back there and I will make sure you get what you truly want. Welcome to the Latin American Federation.
Logan: Thank you, Mother Wolf. I'm ready, I won't let you down.
Mother Wolf: There is no way you ever will. Time to uncover the full potential your father was too afraid to see.
06:50:05, Latin American Federation "The Safe Haven" Headquarters, Caracas, Venezuela, on final approach to the Invisible Federation HQ on the outskirts of Caracas, Logan decides the fates of his first captives as a Federation Soldier and Phantom.
Prime Grandmaster: Nightfall, I cannot believe I would say this, but... welcome to the Latin American Federation's Main Headquarters. We call it "The Safe Haven".
Logan: Good Lord, quite a fortress. Thought we still had a long way to go. I also thought that high-rise in the city was your HQ.
Mother Wolf: That was our more corporate and friendlier HQ, for the civilians who would want to enlist. This is where Federation Soldiers and Airmen are made. But ever since the United States turned LOKI against us, this place became our new main rallying point.
Sonja: Equipped with a Holographic Canopy, the thing that makes the base invisible to the naked eye and surveillance equipment. We bought it from the ATLAS Corporation. Costly but worth it.
Logan: Basically, the Wakanda invisibility shield.
[Cora tries not to laugh]
Logan: I know the ATLAS Corporation is the best PMC in the tech side of business but I didn't think they'd make something like this.
Lockdown: (quietly) Got all that, Star'?
Starlight: (quietly) Ugh! Affirmative.
Logan: Yeah, yeah, try to remember all that. Not like you're gonna get outta this shitshow. *shakes head* Fucking CIA wannabes in Halloween masks.
Mother Wolf: Not the first time I have encountered these "Ghosts", actually.
Logan: They've hunted you down before?
Mother Wolf: Of sorts. *looks outside* We are here. What should we do with our prisoners, Colonel?
Logan: I got a few ideas, the troops are gonna love 'em. *grabs Starlight* Get over here, ya filthy whore!
Prime Grandmaster: *grabs Lockdown* Move, tough guy!
On terra firma, the soldiers of the Latin American Federation cheer upon seeing the two captured Ghosts and start heckling them. Then Logan gives them their doom aloud and in Spanish for all to know, while Prime Grandmaster translates in Portuguese for the Portuguese-speaking half of the army.
[Logan takes Lockdown and Starlight's Ghosts Balaclavas]
Federation Soldiers: *cheering*
Logan: (Spanish) As I expected, as all of you expected! Nothing but an easily-broken man and a fragile woman underneath their fancy masks!
[Prime Grandmaster translating in Portuguese]
Federation Soldiers: *cheering*
Starlight: You won't get anything from us, Kid!
Lockdown: You're gonna have to kill us and move on, motherfucker!
Logan: (Spanish) You hear that?! Not even a minute in here and they already want to die! Too bad for them, as there are fates worse than death!
[Prime Grandmaster translating in Portuguese]
Federation Soldiers: *cheering*
Logan would then not only remove Lockdown and Starlight's gear, but also let the Federation Soldiers rip all of their clothes off for whatever purpose they desire.
Logan: (Spanish) Relieve them of their capacity to fight! Remove their clothes! Torture the man for fun and sport! Rape the woman non-stop! And do whatever else you want with them! As long as you destroy their will to fight and kill! That should penetrate deeper than any bullet!
[Prime Grandmaster translating in Portuguese]
Federation Soldiers: *cheering*
The Federation Soldiers proceed to rip Lockdown and Starlight's clothes off and take them away.
Lockdown: No! NO! YOU FORGOT YOUR PLACE, KID!
Logan: Like you forgot to give me the advanced training you gave David, Lieutenant Commander John 'Lockdown' Wheeler?! Let's see if Merrick cares about his protégé enough to come over here!
Lockdown: IT'S HESH, KID!
Starlight: You can't!
Logan: (Spanish) Hold it! *grins* (English) I can, I am. Besides, why shouldn't I, First Sergeant Katie 'Starlight' Collier? You seduced my dad into an affair with you, right there in his bedroom. You gave Hesh dating advice and chances to fuck older girls before he was 18. "To make him a real man." you and dad said. And lastly but worst of all, you scarred and ruined my mom. *nods* (Spanish) Proceed!
Federation Soldiers: *cheering*
Starlight: NO! YOU WON'T GET AWAY WITH THIS! *muffled screaming*
Prime Grandmaster: Welcome to the Latin American Federation, Colonel Logan 'Nightfall' Walker. *extends right hand*
Logan: *shakes Prime Grandmaster's hand* Thank you, sir. My honor.
As Logan watches Lockdown get tortured and Starlight get gangraped on the open field with a huge grin, he tosses their Ghosts Balaclavas up in the air and shoots them.
