章節 40: Eyes of a Broken Man
In the eyes of Porter Grieves...
*lights up a cigarette* I'll give you something to think about. Give a smart man a problem, he'll solve it. Give a sick man a cure, he'll take it. Give an ignorant person the truth, and they'll ignore it. Give an idiot a lie, and they'll believe it. The original SS.Hunters live by it. We've been identified as the outlaws of the military. Lost causes, outcasts of society... We've been lied too, betrayed by our own country once... Abandoned and surrounded by fifteen thousand men during our tour in Iraq. No lines to call back too. It was in short a living hell for us. I cannot withstand to return to that position again. Scavenging and other crap we have been doing just to live past by each day as we tried to return at least reaching a near-by UN base, but when we arrive there... We're screwed over by another attack and we didn't take that lightly either, we lost two more men that leaves us with only three of us me, a man named David Hanson who was later transferred to the Delta Force, Mark Kine who went MIA after that tour and later to be confirmed to be dead. I tell you, giving man guns won't make any difference. We were just sent there just to die and rot in that useless raid we had chosen to follow. It was sure mind-boggling that we've survived POW camps there with nothing but a rag and a few pieces of bread. Torture was scheduled every Tuesday and we called it Torture Tuesday. Electrocution, paddling, drug torture, and isolation. All of these we faced head-on and taking all of it like a champ.
But in all of those crap and lies, in the end, we didn't get any credit for their info they got from us. And now I'm under Her Majesty's men now, the SS.Hunters are now an independent private army that is fully supported by Britain and Germany as the specialists that do the dirty work that is protected and supported so we can do shit that we can do equal damage to those who've done
to hurt us. The Secret War is about to begin and the arms race for advanced weapon systems and soldiers are now being held secretly surprising, isn't it? After all of that our work was all for nothing. But now I'm back with a new group with sponsors this time and we'll sure to kick some ass in the process of controlling this secret war of enormous destructive proportions.
In the eyes of Tom McClain...
"So risking is the way you chose Tom?" I'm hearing that voice again... "Yes, why? Do you care about that?" He replied. "Not really just curious that you're actually overdosing yourself with the medicine. I'm surprised that you're even alive, did you know one of the ingredients of that medicine is cyanide? But don't you worry the dosage is certainly not lethal. Your potential to be the best is certainly achieved now. No one and I mean no one can stop you now Tom and surprisingly you'll have your own APEX since they deemed your life to be at risk so they chose to give you your own APEX just to save you." Well, I do feel the APEX initializing in me and adjusting to its environment. Honestly, if I follow Mr. Kirkstoic's steps I might cause something that will change the course of the life of everyone here. I've got to move carefully then to prevent dangerous outcomes that will risk the chances of me failing to achieve our goal. "Now that's the spirit, Tom! Be decisive be 4 steps ahead of everyone, knowing that you have everything laid out and let the dominoes just fall on their own. Plans will always get the results you want if its understood, well-laid out, easy to perform with a reasonable amount of grunt needed to execute, and of course the crazier it is the lesser
it's effectiveness so be crazy but not too crazy." Oh, we'll see about that Mr. Kirkstoic. "My oh my there Tom with an ego like that it'll soon backfire someday remember you can't be all willy nilly with that new ability you got from me. Soon you'll become the enemy you fear you'll turn if you don't control it. But be hasty or tomorrow will never come now, Tom." Honestly, Mr. Kirkstoic is one weird guy if you really get close to him. Well, he did change after that unsolved mystery of him reviving after getting shanked in the upper torso. "So you're asking about that incident... Well, we never got to capture the culprit but from what I've heard before I fell down during that time was a female voice in agony. I never really understand why she did it but she did miss my heart. Surprisingly, but to answer your question is I can't actually answer it yet. Sad I know and you'll see it for yourself
if it happens. With your own two eyes on how it happens. I'm not foreshadowing something bad here just saying that if it happens it happens. Don't take my word on the prediction I can't bend or mess with the future." I understand Mr. Kirkstoic but what's with all of this you're saying to me? "Well, I gave you hints for what you'll eventually see and warned you to prevent you from becoming
a broken man at the end of all of this. You might not understand this but-. Let's continue this in some other time see ya."
