It’s strange how some people just click and Billie and I did just that. She with her short hair and freckles. The truck trundled towards the Dark Core base. Billie and Buggings had the honour of keeping an eye on me. There wasn’t any point. I wouldn’t run from the truck because I knew they’d all die. Simple as that. I was young, quick and skilled maybe, but inexperienced. But others were not so. Maybe they were scared of me but in comparison to the people who trained me, I was a spoiled 4 year old.
I sat back listening to Billie complaining about the quality of the wood. I wondered if Billie would die as well. Could I save her? Could I even save myself? Did I want to? After about 10 hours we arrived at the Dark Core base. I think the weather understands pathetic fallacy as it was raining. You could only feel as you could feel it: it was so dark that you couldn’t see your hands in front of your face. Finally, the raid started. JI8s men and women ran in with their guns screaming “It’s JI8, get on the floor”. From where Buggings had a hold of me I heard the last screams before a bang. Throw in a bit of begging and the sound of running and then you have the orchestra of battle. It took about 5 minutes for a Dark Core woman - I think it was a woman anyway - to find us. She raised her gun. “Drop your weapons,” she told us. Since I hadn’t actually been given the honour of having a weapon I stood still. Billie dropped her gun with a clatter but Buggings didn’t. He was shot. That sounds so remote but I had no feelings towards Buggings plus it wasn’t the first death I’d seen. Billie started sobbing but to her credit, silently. “Which one of you is Spectre ?” “Me,” I truthfully told her. She looked at me. Nodded before she aimed the gun at Billie and pulled the trigger. I gasped. Literal pain spread through my body. Not the pain of loosing someone, the pain of a bullet. My gasp had cost a lot. Would Billie and I die or would they spare us? I knew neither of us had been fatally injured if we had treatment. Well, you never know. Not every story ends happily.
