I just wanted to serve my country. Emphasis on the I.

“Listen up, you meat suits will be dropped in to eliminate the enemy’s weapons manufacturer and destroy the compound. Should be easy with what we’re giving you. Any questions?” 128Please respect copyright.PENANAo0pZ4UDHfr
128Please respect copyright.PENANAIJa8hyEAWI
No one said a word. They didn’t want to. This wasn’t our war anymore so why bother?
128Please respect copyright.PENANAqsA5TRaZKK
“Good, now juice up.”

A beautiful lady with long blond hair and a smoking hot body steps forward toward us. But what really got us to stand at attention was what she was wearing. At least we got to see something good before we go under. A small mercy.
128Please respect copyright.PENANADROdLoRaKd
Satisfied with the excited blood pumping through us, she hands the 13 of us a syringe with a strange red substance. Assassin type as expected.
128Please respect copyright.PENANAt4it9i8QIU
I take the cold syringe and stare at it while everyone else shoots the liquid up their veins. Is this really what I want to do with my life?
128Please respect copyright.PENANAHP15CXiP44
“Number 889, is there a problem?”
128Please respect copyright.PENANAv1fF7a2JLx
“N-No sir.”
128Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8FgYgYUZi
I look around at my fellow victims. Their eyes have already glazed over, the liquid quickly flowing to the brain and doing its work. Soon, I will be in their position.
128Please respect copyright.PENANA7c4rHSOfeH
I take the syringe and carefully insert in into my arm. I push the liquid inside me and instantly I feel the familiar sensation. The frigid fire courses through my veins, freezing then burning my blood. As if alive, it spreads throughout my body, getting familiar with the host. 128Please respect copyright.PENANAg6TXI8gK3s
128Please respect copyright.PENANAXPGS8eKJsf
My body begins to convulse uncontrollably as the substance slithers through my soul. Every bloody inch it scraps away, another part of me is submerged and overtaken. Memories blend and emotions fall to bedlam.
128Please respect copyright.PENANAAvgCyogEzs
Who am I?
128Please respect copyright.PENANAzx8Xb53p8v
What am I?
128Please respect copyright.PENANA2d41JI9vJF
I feel this body’s eyes roll back into the skull. There, in that twisting darkness of the minding, I can see it. Something…foreign to us. Us? Who are we? How many are in here? I’m so tired. I…we…they…someone wants freedom.
128Please respect copyright.PENANAdlyxHWZcoZ
But the chains of the mission don’t go away. The noose only tightens, blistering the writhing souls raw. Blades tears away at the skin but we’re unable to scream. Hammers crush the bones but we're unable to beg for mercy. 128Please respect copyright.PENANA0AfdT8Hs54
128Please respect copyright.PENANAtMkJFRVPzb
The body goes through unfamiliar but familiar motions. Howls of the dying and the smell of the decaying fill the atmosphere. So close to our memories yet so far from what we think is right.
128Please respect copyright.PENANAimKLy2cj3q
Soldiers, assassins, leaders, and more fight for dominance in the mind of the broken. Where-128Please respect copyright.PENANAxJtSixT4fN

“Snap out of it, the mission is over.”
128Please respect copyright.PENANAaujDTRVaXs
“H-Huh?”
128Please respect copyright.PENANAk1WbIQA7Oq
Suddenly, I am me again. I’m pulled from the depths of insanity and back into the waking world. But something is missing again. Pieces…lost in the torrent. Memories and thoughts are absorbed by the all-consuming black.
128Please respect copyright.PENANAYZzUnMPDuF
“W-Who are you?”
128Please respect copyright.PENANA9fZKYmeEug
“You commanding officer, now clean yourself up.”
128Please respect copyright.PENANADCNxoCFxb2
I hesitate to look down or around me, the smell tells me enough. The burning bodies behind me and the wetness on my hands. But…I had to keep going. No one will lead me out of this darkness.
128Please respect copyright.PENANAGrOkGflZhw
I opened my eyes to see the carnage we committed. We completed our given mission, paid by the blood of hundreds.
128Please respect copyright.PENANA1jdW56W3jC
“W-What have I done!”
128Please respect copyright.PENANAEWZ0HVzwAz
We all look toward the new recruit. A child no more than 14 years of age, forced to play host to some past killer. He couldn’t but empty his bowls after such an event. 128Please respect copyright.PENANAhVOmYXCyYW
128Please respect copyright.PENANAaC6ISL5xB1
“For fuck sake, someone clean after 900. Fucking meat suits…”
128Please respect copyright.PENANAUPbbqvyxf2
The rest of us closed our hearts to it and went back into the ship. Time blurred after that and now we come to the present.
128Please respect copyright.PENANAG2GZQCGfWv
Escaping the psych ward, I stand on top the military compound, looking to the merciful concrete below to end my suffering. 128Please respect copyright.PENANAEjVPJiOAT1
128Please respect copyright.PENANAZzBHCaPsaz
Voices in my head rattle and fight over my decision. I scrap them out until blood fills my vision. I have to end it quickly before more memories are ripped from me.

I picture my mother and sister. The warmth of their-

“What are you doing soldier!?”
128Please respect copyright.PENANA6b4YBRCohD
Soldier? Soldier!?
128Please respect copyright.PENANANyL9JvTyvN
I turn to face our commander. Or…what I think is the commander…
128Please respect copyright.PENANArrlXDc47fC
“I’m not a soldier, I’m just a meat suit remember? You never wanted brave soldiers willing to fight and die for their country. You just wanted slaves!”
128Please respect copyright.PENANA6iBCJjNOhO
“Get down from there. That’s an order!”
128Please respect copyright.PENANAVVl1wGB8Wf
I look back down and see only peace awaiting me. The screams of voices long dead ring further in my head. No matter how much I scratch, they won’t get out! I have no choice.
128Please respect copyright.PENANANCefFfkMsq
“Wait!”
128Please respect copyright.PENANAnuwW14WErx
I jump.

“Peace my son, this is all according to our Lord’s plan. Who else would gift our wonderful nation with the power to bring back the dead.”

“Sacrifices must be made for the greater good. Now, clean up the mess and find a new recruit. What number are we at again? Oh yes, 70000.”
