I died in CQB

It was supposed to be routine seizing of company assets.

A company called Terracorp was conducting unethical and unlawful activities and their laboratories were supposed to be seized. I myself didn't know any more details. We were only briefed very simply, only being told the goal and getting shown a very undetailed aerial picture of the premises. We didn't think much of it, thinking it would be pretty routine. Nothing could have possibly prepared us for the situation we would found ouselves in.

We were a team of 10, all armed with automatic rifles and full plate carrier systems.

Entering the reception aerea we faced zero resistance. All the employees complied with our instructions and everything went according to plan.

The labs were underground and we went down a very long stairwell, about 7 stories deep maybe. At the bottom we exited the stairwell via double doors. Outside lied a long hallway, about 50 meters in length, perpendicular to the door hosting about 10 doors on ever side.  The whole place was bathed in a dim white and blueish light.

Our breacher Eduard (these names are only nicknames. We don't know eachothers real names) first took a step outside.

We were told the the possibility of armed resistance was low so we were a little bit careless and wanted to get the job done.  This job was more of an exploration for us to gather evidence etc.

Eduard crossed the hallway and we followed after him. 

We walked down the hallway halfway checking the multitude of doors and respectively rooms one by one. 

The hallway intersected another hallway leading to a big warehouse like open area filled with lab tents.

We decided to split up, one group keeps going on the hallway surrounding the „warehouse" as we called it, the other one checks out the tents in the „warehouse".

I was in the former group, advancing door to door in the hallway.

Suddenly our group hears full automatic fire followed by screaming from the warehouse.

We stopped dead in out tracks in the middle of the hallway.

The sound of the gunfire did not originate from one of our rifles. It had a faster firerate maybe about 800rpm unlike our 600rpm.

„What the fuck is happening!"

I screamed in the comms.

„We are being engaged by these fucking bastards *gunfire*!"

„Where are they?"

„They are across the warehouse from the way we came from!"

„Any casualties?"

„Yea Jeff lies on the floor and Eduard is fucking bleeding!"

„Motherfucker! I will send 3 of us to your position. Me and Ivan are going to try to flank them."

„OK"

-End of comms-

„Ok Ivan lets run to the end of the hallway!"

„Ok" he said in a calm voice

Ivan has always fascinated me because I have never heard any emotion out of his voice. He's always calm and collected no matter the situation.

At the end of the hallway another hallway was connected at a 90deg angle.

„Ivan ill go down that hallway you watch my back right?"

„Roger"

Ivan watched the hallway while I slowly walked along it. Completely disregarding the doors lying on the hallway.

The door directly to my left opens and I was greeted by a man holding a rifle. The next thing I know I'm lying face first on the ground in a pool of blood.

This Is it. This is how my life ends.

From the start of the engagement till now not even 3 minutes have passed. These 3 minutes have dictated how my life ends.

Now all I can do is lay on my stomach and rethink my life.

I've had colleagues die in my hands. This is just my turn.

My life ends after 1/4 of my expectancy.

My eyes slowly start to close.

Life flashes infront of my eyes.

Memories of my first years alive, sitting on a slide on the playground

A random moment in class while talking to my friend in middle school

Coding a project for my Highschool summer break assignment

Having fights with my parents about my nicotine addiction

Watching Netflix with my Ex girlfriend, the show was so fucking shit -_-

Being in a mission with my team as hostage rescue

My consciousness started to fade.

Everything went dark

What's happening

Am I not dead yet?!

I was going to see mom and dad in heaven.

Why is there Terracorp?

A lot of thoughts shot through my brain.

A lot of confusion.

I wake up to an unknown ceiling.
