Morning, Day 2
After seemingly sleeping for two days, the soldiers awoke refreshed with a renewed sense of getting out alive. The men made their way over to the cook, who had convincingly managed to make bacon out of spam. A few men decided to go over to the two bound men and eat the bacon in front of them, but when they got to the large rocks where they had been bound, few could believe their own eyes of what they saw.
First where D’Artagnan59 had been bound only the sliced remnants of rope remained. Somehow he had escaped during the night, and after some thorough searching found him in his tent, almost as surprised to be untied as the rest of them were. When interrogated as to how he escaped, he said he had no idea, that one moment he was tied up and the next we was asleep in his tent. Disappointed they couldn’t eat their bacon in front of D’Artagnan59, they decided to go pay sirtommygunn a visit.
What they found shocked everyone. Discovered face first on the ground, sirtommygunn appeared to have been murdered, a single bullet wound through the back of his head. Footsteps at the scene of the crime pointed again towards insurgent activity, but the similarities between it and Johanssen’s murder were eerie. They didn’t have just a traitor on their hands, it would appear there is a whole rogue movement stacked against the soldiers, hell-bent on taking them all out before extraction.
With sirtommygunn dead, his tent was searched for anything of use to the rest of the squad. Emerging with a
Rifle, the soldiers decided to vote on who would get the weapon. With the morning’s events concluded, the men packed up their gear and started the trek west once more. The optimism shared by many in the morning had turned sour. With an apparent rogue agenda in their ranks and the constant threat of insurgent retribution, those loyal to the mission and command had to figure this whole mess out quickly. This was not going to be easy.
It is now day!
