Chapter 1 - 1

"Bullshit,I did what I had to!"inside a United States military camp,stationed somewhere in Iraq.Shane Wilson,slammed his hand onto an old wooden table,housing various maps that highlighted multiple points of interest.

Shane glared towards the old man smoking a cigar,he was a man who Shane has bumped heads with at every turn,Colonel Price Avery.an older white man with scars ranging all across his face,dressed in his fancy uniform with all his medals.

"Major!lower your tone when you're talking to me!"shane clenched his fist,today was without a doubt Shane's worst fucking day.he had personally led a squad of rookies straight out of ranger school to a damn simple,routine patrol to shake that fresh nervousness they all carried off.only to be ambushed by the last thing they expected to see in Iraq,A supe!

"Oh yeah!Or what!What are you going to do to me Colonel!Those where good fucking Men And Now there Gone!"pent up emotions that he held back,for not being able to do a damn thing to that bastard,who had took them by suprise and nearly killed all of them.

"Major!you want to know what I want to do Huh!"marching towards Shane,he tossed his cigar to the ground,and glared directly at him.

"I'm right here!"shane said spreading his arms wide,as the smell of alcohol and ash slipped into his nose,

"You abandoned half your men!Left them to die in the hands of a terrorist,That you say was a supe!"Colonel price anger was at a all time high,but so was Shane's.

"I didn't abandon anybody!you weren't there!I called for backup but not a damned person answered!"shane yelled he had,had enough squeezing his fist he lashed out at the colonel nocking him back on the ground,as a short stream of blood erupted from his nose.

No more talking,whatever words he said weren't getting through,jumping ontop of the colonel he swung his fist down upon him.

"I fought!I FOUGHT!I FOUGHT! DAMNIT AND IT WASENT ENOUGH!"feeling a hand wrap against his throat,The colonel glared towards him.but Shane didn't care swinging harder,he had,had enough.

Just as he cocked back his right arm,something hard impacted the back of his head sending him falling to the ground next to the colonel.his ears rang,his vision slowly blacking in and out as he heard the sounds of multipe voices.

"Get the colonel!"a gruffy voice said loudly.as Shane noticed a figure?holding that man by his shoulder yelling at him,while pointing at Shane.

"Shit!Major what did you do!"feeling a sudden hand grip his shoulder ,Shane could barely see anything before falling unconscious.

**

Sitting on a bus heading to queens New York,Shane Wilson sat with a broken nose and multiple bruises and stitches across his face in silence.

He had been dishonorably discharged,for his actions against the colonel and for being under the influence causing the loss of lives under his command.

"What a bunch of bullshit."he said wincing to the aching pain in his nose,sighing Shane leaned his head to the window beside him.he had been set up,the rookies that survived,testified against him but they couldn't even look him in the eye as they lied to his face.

'It was a set up'that everybody was in on but him,a damn joke.

Closing his eyes,Shane served for this country only for them to toss him away.Like his commitment was nothing ,his time was nothing.his anger boiled beneath his skin.

Suddenly a vibration shook in his pocket coming from his phone,opening his eyes Shane sighed.reaching in he grabbed it and saw the person calling him.Martha.

Smiling Shane answered it."hello."various noise sounded,with a whispered shush and light giggles,Shane raised his eyebrow,as a gentle voice spoke.

"Hellooooo~"the giggles where louder,as the sounds of feet hitting the floor where heard,Shane lightly shook his head holding his smile.

"Martha."he stated,while she responded.

"Shane."she spoke with a light laugh,that seemed to just blow away Shane's troubles,feeling a warmth and fullness in his chest Shane spoke.

"Martha."gently uttered she spoke right after.

"Shaneeee~"extending his name,Shane played her game.

"Martha."suddenly a beautiful soft hum,was heard from the other side.as they continued there little game for a while longer.

"You almost here,love?I could've picked you up at the airport."Martha said,curiously.

"No it's fine,how could I let my pregnant wife go through that trouble,bus ticket was free anyways."looking through the window,Shane was given a paid for seat from an old colleague of his before being sent off.

"Okay,still I can't wait to see you it's been months!I missed you so much!" Listening to her happy voice,Shane nodded.

"I missed you too,how's my princess doing?"Shane said reminiscing about his little girl at home.his little Tasmanian devil that was just a bundled up,joy of energy.

Shane could hear the sounds of giggling,and jumping."oh?hmm I don't know she's a big girl now and doesn't like listening to mama,I don't think your going to want to see her."shaking his head,at her teasing and the sounds of stomping he said.

"Really?hmm maybe your right,I think I'll just go back and."just as he was about say more he was interrupted,by a squeaky voice.

"No!I want to see you!Mommy Lying Please don't Go!"hearing soft whimpers,Shane heart started to hurt.

"Oh okay,Your right mommy just a big lier!and don't you worry daddy will set her straight."Martha voice cut through.

"Hey!"shane laughed,as his ray of sunshine spoke.

"So you are coming home!"she said excitedly.

"I'm coming home."the sounds of her small feet hitting the floor of his home,resounded through the call.
