Burning light (task force an child reader)

Tip toe

You and the others had woken up and started to head on foot again once the sun started to come up. You and the others walked and walked until you saw a town off in the distance .
'' were coming up on the town , we got our humvee over there well get up and driving soon.''
Price said as you and the others stood on the sand dune looking down at the town .
'' were near the northern region .''
Alejandro said .
'' farah is the one bringing us our humvee .''
Ghost said as he looked over the city .
'' were burning daylight we should get moving especially if there's someone waiting for us .''
You said as you went ahead of them and kept walking . the others got up walking again and you slid down the dune . the sand got into your boots but you could shake the sand out once you're in town on concrete . The others slid down without hesitations and the only two left were ghost and Riley .
'' c,mon mate we gotta go .''
Price said as he looked up ghost .
You saw that ghost was trying to figure out a way to get Riley down safely and it all clicked in your head and you got an idea .
'' dad hold him and slide down .''
You said as you yelled and cuffed your hands near your mouth so he could hear you .
Ghost grunted in response and he picked up Riley gently throwing him over his shoulder and he solid down with ease . Riley wiggled a bit and ghost set him down and you all continued to keep walking . you put on your mask as you got closer and continued to walk. It wants long before you are at the entrance of the town . the smell of chiles en nogada and elote's . You saw kids run around with their friends and a street dog nearby . Ghost went next to you and kept you close to him . you looked around and one of the kids waved to you unfazed . when they saw Ghost they backed up slightly due to Ghost's intimidating aura . you waved back to the kids and you kept walking on the rocky concrete . There were street vendors handing out fruits and there were food carts . soap waved to the kids and kept walking and you guys had come across an alley and went down it . your stomach was a bit uneasy but you assumed it was because you didn't eat but you ignored the feeling . you pulled your knife from your boot and kept it close to your side hidden . Gaz noticed this and went towards you and gently grabbed your wrist and gave you a nod that it was okay . you sighed and put the knife back into your boots until you saw a humvee pull up and there was a woman in the drivers seat .
'' nice to see you farah .''
Ghost said while giving her a hand shake .
'' pleasure as always ghost .''
She said back .
The women wore baige tactical pants with a cloth
Mask covering her face . She had black boots on and had her tactical gear in place .
" I see you brought the kid with ya ghost ."
She said as she stepped out of the humvee.
You looked at the woman confused on who she was but Ghost introduced you to her.
" this is y/n , y/n meet Farah ."
Ghost said as he looked down at you and back at farah .
" Nice to meet you ."
She said as she held out her hand .
You shook her hand and greeted her and the others did as well.
" Thanks for dropping off our humvee ."
Price said .
" anytime ."
She said,
" I'll be heading back to los Alma's and I gotta run but keep in touch and keep the kid safe ."
She said as she left as quickly as she said hello .
" bye kid "
She said as she ran off and the other said the goodbyes as well and then got situated . Soap got in the driver's seat and Price went into the passenger's seat and you went on the left side while ghost sat next to you and Alejandro on the other side . Riley hopped in the very back and you pet him and bit and soon the engine started and you were on the move . Ghost stood quiet as the others talked and you stood quiet as well but every so often he would check on you.
" we're in the town of conlina rosa."
Alejandro said while looking out the window.
" you know Spanish "
Alejandro spoke .
" No, I thought you knew this ."
Ghost said as soap let out a little chuckle.
" you will ."
Alejandro said back with a smirk plastered on his face.
You saw something and looked out the window and Alejandro and you saw Ghosts grip tighten on his rifle .
" hey fantasma it's normal here ."
Alejandro assured .
" Guns are the jurisdiction of the police ."
Alejandro said as he adjusted in his seat .
" Where are the police ?"
Ghost said quietly and deeply .
" Las Alma's has a very serious problem with that but there are few here to uphold the law and many of those who resist corruption disappear."
He said as he turned to look at ghost .
" Who avoids the military?"
Soap said .
" or because we are well trained soldiers included by the narcos ."
Alejandro said .
You listened intently and looked at soap and Alejandro and back to Gaz and price
" why not you?"
Ghost said sternly almost as if was annoyed .
There was a slight pause until Alejandro spoke up again .
" we grew up here because those vaqueros, we love this place "
He said as he trailed quietly on the last part .
" and we'll die fighting for it ."
Alejandro said .
You passed more people and you looked out the window to see more street vendors handing out goods and food .
Soap looked out the window and he turned his head to see ghost staring like a predator stalking prey .
" It's gone, got some blues ."
Soap said .
" Narcos used generosity to win over the people , especially the children ."
Alejandro said.
You all looked out the window to see an alleyway blocked by some yellow police tape and the walkway's blood and covered with a sheet with words on it . you couldn't make out what they said but this made you wonder who did this until you saw the marking on the cloth.
'' what is it ?''
You asked while trying to get a better look at what it said .
'' cartel cloths, messages from the elsinombre. Warnings marking territory .''
Alejadro said while looking at the scene and back to you .
'' the streets of death .''
He said as he shook his head a little .
'' el ti nom bre .''
Ghost said while trying to pronounce it .
'' elsinombre , the nameless the leader of the los almas cartel .''
Alejadnro said .
'' but our missions is to find the muerte roja's .''
Alejdnro said to ghost .
'' this is a challenge but those muerte roja's like challenges .''
Alejandor said with a smirk .
'' with your mask , you will fit in well here ghost even y/n .'' aleandro said while turning to look at ghost .
Ghost stared at Alejandro through the rear view mirror of the humvee and you did as well.
'' if the muerta roja's are further out here there could be a chance that they know were coming i mean it could be a trap .''
You said in your thick british accent .
'' see Ghost i told you she'd learn some spanish .''
Alejandro said while giving you the look of a proud parent.
'' she's learning .'''
Soap said .
After driving for a another 2 hours it hit dark . you came across a building and it had multiple guards guarding around it you grabbed your rifle and you adjusted your mask straps and you gave the others a nod . soap parked the humvee in a dark spot where no one would notice and you got out quietly and let out Riley . Ghost gave riley a signal that this was a stealth mission and he sat in response to let Ghost know that he was ready . you saw the others step out quietly as well and you peered around the humvee and you heard a few of the muerte roja talking to each other.

( MR is short for muerte roja )

'' they should be coming .''
MR-1 spoke .
'' have you seen the duo with the skull masks .''
MR-5 said while scanning the area with his eyes .
'' Please there is nothing but a bunch of no one who hides behind a mask . los almas is better than those two . there the least of our problems .''
MR-4 said while turning to MR-5.
While they were talking you and Ghost had gone in a team with Riley while Gaz and Alejandro went as one and price and soap as another .
You crept up behind one of the soldiers and you took out your knife and swiftly stabbed him in the neck . he fell the floor with a thud while blood flowed from his neck as you took out your knife quickly and took out the other.
'' thats what you get for calling us a nobody stupid bitch,''
You said quietly and sternly .
Ghost took out another soldier with his knife as well while stabbing him multiple in the neck . The soldier struggled against ghost but soon died due to blood loss and he too fell to the floor. Both soldiers were dead.
'' tio we kill them how is it looking on your end.''
You spoke through comms waiting for an answer.
'' we got em .''
Soap said as he spoke out of breath .
'' seems like you put uf a struggle .''
Price said through comms .
'' we had a few more on this side but we should be good for now .''
Soap said .
'' well head in cautiously and kill anyone who gets in our way and the retrive the leader and see what's up and why there looking for us .''
Ghost said .
'' roger that L.T .''
Soap said .
This was gonna be one hell of a fight and gonna be a big pain in the ass .
