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?” 110Please respect copyright.PENANAEbdGdYKiQF
110Please respect copyright.PENANANnIFAlQjCx
No one said a word. They didn’t want to. This wasn’t our war anymore so why bother?
110Please respect copyright.PENANA6wQ89ITAmX
“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.
110Please respect copyright.PENANAHYjO5rbITS
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.
110Please respect copyright.PENANAl5rn1QCwwO
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?
110Please respect copyright.PENANAzZEG9HpndZ
“Number 889, is there a problem?”
110Please respect copyright.PENANAjbyZaqCyZq
“N-No sir.”
110Please respect copyright.PENANAfpQcS0Y327
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.
110Please respect copyright.PENANAJBJYvxRG6r
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. 110Please respect copyright.PENANAC70bEaF4l6
110Please respect copyright.PENANA5SMNWubwoL
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.
110Please respect copyright.PENANAll874aIUvT
Who am I?
110Please respect copyright.PENANAYf8hyXV91K
What am I?
110Please respect copyright.PENANAZO2T3dxd87
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.

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. 110Please respect copyright.PENANA2anF2U7X8z
110Please respect copyright.PENANAWmhREga3EC
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.
110Please respect copyright.PENANAVUBnSOZyFW
Soldiers, assassins, leaders, and more fight for dominance in the mind of the broken. Where-110Please respect copyright.PENANAZohOQ8eiyg

“H-Huh?”
110Please respect copyright.PENANA97C924YPl3
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.
110Please respect copyright.PENANALD0k8YYqTY
“W-Who are you?”
110Please respect copyright.PENANA3kM2MfQHxu
“You commanding officer, now clean yourself up.”
110Please respect copyright.PENANAKSIwqdegvK
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.
110Please respect copyright.PENANA4XeULyk5gp
I opened my eyes to see the carnage we committed. We completed our given mission, paid by the blood of hundreds.
110Please respect copyright.PENANAVYoCUFOkhV
“W-What have I done!”
110Please respect copyright.PENANASqmkgVbyLq
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. 110Please respect copyright.PENANAKnxJc5BbvM
110Please respect copyright.PENANAgXgF5MKZEV
“For fuck sake, someone clean after 900. Fucking meat suits…”
110Please respect copyright.PENANAoeNzvinUCP
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.
110Please respect copyright.PENANAOGFop065dL
Escaping the psych ward, I stand on top the military compound, looking to the merciful concrete below to end my suffering. 110Please respect copyright.PENANASFPzNznXVw
110Please respect copyright.PENANAPX597o6cA3
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-

110Please respect copyright.PENANAowFciwS1qe
Soldier? Soldier!?
110Please respect copyright.PENANAomxh08mWxn
I turn to face our commander. Or…what I think is the commander…
110Please respect copyright.PENANA76vzel5xQq
“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!”
110Please respect copyright.PENANAJLuiuYmvKJ
“Get down from there. That’s an order!”
110Please respect copyright.PENANAlolmi5VHTC
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.
110Please respect copyright.PENANAnRwLncjpIs
“Wait!”
110Please respect copyright.PENANAJn3ueLDCB4
I jump.
