Why Am I Here

Chapter One: One Call Away

(Mercenary 5869 aka, Nemo)

I took a deep breath then focus on my target I took out a camera took some shot then made my way to my employers. "It's empty. No one in no one out." I gave them the pictures and they gave me my money suddenly I gotten a call, "Hello?" I said "Hello Nemo this is your friend Caboose." I sighed, "Caboose, what do you want?" "I need you help"- I stoped him there. "Caboose, I'm not going back there." "Please, Nemo." "That's not my name. It's mercenary 5869." "Wait your like Tex, right?" "Excuse me?" I said angrily and a bit shocked, "I mean you like money well if I pay you can you come and help me and Church?" I groaned a bit while rubbing my temples trying to think I eventually sighed telling him, "Fine, I'll help you guys but just this once and want to be paid up front." "Oh thank you Nemo, I knew it you could help us." "I- "We're at this place. He sent me an image of a rocky terrain with trees and mountains. I quickly where they were, "Son of a bitch." I muttered angrily. They were at the crash site, I'm making Caboose pay extra for this. I made my way to it only to hear gun shots and alarms. I saw them sneaking to where Sheila was so I followed, Only to heard the crash log. I gasped while trying not to cry. However I overheard them talking and I recognized Washington's name. If he's there then where's everyone else i wondered while watching them i head him say south. "South?" I heard him say suddenly. I frowned worried I quickly followed them to where South Dakota was, I heard Washington's orders so I quickly stayed by South Dakota's side making sure she didn't escape however i didn't want to help her yet but once they arrive Delta revealed she killed her brother. "You killed North Dakota!" I said in horror but as Washington and delta continued to talk he gave him the suggestion to kill south Dakota. I gasped as she laid on the ground causing Washington to pin me to the wall, "Who are you and what do you want?" I was about to answer when Caboose yelled out happily "Nemo you came!" He lessen the hold a bit asking, "You know him?" "Caboose, I told you to call me mercenary 5869." "Yeah, you know that's never going to happen." "Shut up, Church!" I snapped as Washington asked, "So wait, How do you know each other. He's some mercenary that kind of was there for everything." I rolled my eyes telling Washington I was hired to assist red team but since they were in battle with the blues I watch them until my services were needed." I rolled my eyes as Church treating Washington like a psychopath, as delta explained I frowned but glared at Church however when Washington was done disposing of South Dakota's body he told us that he told command that Caboose killed her because if he said if Church did it it wouldn't be believable. Causing me to laugh. As he and Washington argued about his aim I joked, "I'm sure you tell all the ladies that." "Shut up, Nemo." "I told you not to call me that! "Why can't we call you Nemo, it's a nice name?" I sighed you can call me that Caboose but he can't." "Is it because Church is mean?" "Something like that." I answered him. Soon enough we made our way to the bikes one was missing that's to the meta. Delta then examined the scene. As Washington explained AI's to Church delta followed it up by explaining by talking about the alpha, I groaned a bit however as Washington explained the alpha to them his recovery went off it turns out Maine was the meta. I yelled for Church to shut up because I trying to hear what was going on.
