The armored transport groans as it pushes through the night, the only illumination a dull crimson glow from the instrument panel. A deep, collective fatigue saturates the cabin, each soldier slumped in their harness—Soap, for a miracle, is silent. You rest your head against the cold steel wall, your rifle a familiar weight across your thighs, eyelids heavy. Then your focus drifts, and lands on Ghost. He's claimed his seat entirely, legs spread, head leaned back, the stark bones of his mask etched in the low light. Your breath hitches. A wave of heat crashes through you, defying the icy draft. He doesn't stir, but his eyes—tired, blue—drift slowly, deliberately, to lock with yours.
