The enemy surrounds Task Force 141. They struggle to take down the enemy. They all work together to take down the enemies. They are making progress taking the enemies down, but Ghost is shot and falls to the ground.
“Simon!” Jamie yells and runs toward him. Ignoring the enemy gunfire. She falls to her knees by him. “No, please don’t die on me.”
While the others protect Ghost and Jamie from gunfire, all Jamie can do is watch Ghost die. She lies on his chest, not caring she’ll be covered in blood. Jamie takes Ghost’s hand and cries. Jamie feels his pulse getting weaker until she can’t feel it. By then, the others have taken down the enemies. They know there’s nothing they can say to Jamie.
“Jamie? Jamie, wake up.” Ghost says. Jamie wakes up, terrified. “You’re safe. It was just a dream.”
Ghost didn’t expect Jamie to cry. He hugs her and rubs her back to calm her. Jamie grips his shirt.
Soon, Jamie calms down, but her grip on Ghost’s shirt remains tight. Ghost encourages Jamie to talk about her nightmare, not expecting to hear it was about him being killed in battle. What concerned Ghost is Jamie’s fear that the dream was a warning. He didn’t think she’d take dreams as a warning. They both know their job comes with the risk of being killed. Ghost isn’t sure how to help Jamie.
He hugs her close to him. The room is quiet until Ghost speaks.
“You know what we should do? A training course.”
The two stand in the training room, looking at the training course they’ll be running.
“Now you are no longer my friend and teammate; you are my rival,” Ghost says.
Jamie smiles. The two get ready to run the training course.
They run the course. Ghost trying anything that doesn’t count as cheating to win. Ghost tries his hardest to finish first, but Jamie finishes first.
“You cheated,” Ghost jokes.
“That’s what you think.”
“Yeah, yeah,” Ghost looks outside. “The sun is setting. Let’s go for a walk.”
Ghost hurries and grabs his coat. He knew Jamie wouldn’t choose to wear one.
Ten minutes into their walk, Jamie gets cold.
“You did this on purpose,” Ghost teases.
“No, I’m fine —”
Ghost puts his coat over Jamie’s shoulders.
“If you say so,” Ghost chuckles.
Jamie doesn’t remove Ghost’s coat off her shoulders. Ghost smiles, knowing she likes wearing his coat as they watch the sunset together.
