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?” 120Please respect copyright.PENANAUo3S8D7B2O
120Please respect copyright.PENANAenQKVzRnlF
No one said a word. They didn’t want to. This wasn’t our war anymore so why bother?
120Please respect copyright.PENANA5n9bcOTStL
“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.
120Please respect copyright.PENANAhpcVl1Cx3v
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.
120Please respect copyright.PENANAcCSYqJk3x0
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?
120Please respect copyright.PENANAtPnuwsSnF3
“Number 889, is there a problem?”
120Please respect copyright.PENANAuWG9jE9dnA
“N-No sir.”
120Please respect copyright.PENANArbou4dcrKo
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.
120Please respect copyright.PENANAsNbujPXNow
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. 120Please respect copyright.PENANAxt9CzN3L37
120Please respect copyright.PENANAQu25saw62c
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.
120Please respect copyright.PENANAlydvrbdugD
Who am I?
120Please respect copyright.PENANAmlaRvfmOFB
What am I?
120Please respect copyright.PENANA3ACeapzFBQ
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. 120Please respect copyright.PENANAhZDrzzOH94
120Please respect copyright.PENANAOARMFO5QW7
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.
120Please respect copyright.PENANAuhQxhQGqyG
Soldiers, assassins, leaders, and more fight for dominance in the mind of the broken. Where-120Please respect copyright.PENANAC31HD8SC6G

“H-Huh?”
120Please respect copyright.PENANAUYhTSc4GYG
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.
120Please respect copyright.PENANAIUgd4xTrzq
“W-Who are you?”
120Please respect copyright.PENANAeJs7apOrsw
“You commanding officer, now clean yourself up.”
120Please respect copyright.PENANA5sKz0M23P3
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.
120Please respect copyright.PENANA8ogUm35SGg
I opened my eyes to see the carnage we committed. We completed our given mission, paid by the blood of hundreds.
120Please respect copyright.PENANAtbbThTNSX3
“W-What have I done!”
120Please respect copyright.PENANA25KbQDi4Tn
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. 120Please respect copyright.PENANAiJYZ8zBGql
120Please respect copyright.PENANAoN3t0hy9bh
“For fuck sake, someone clean after 900. Fucking meat suits…”
120Please respect copyright.PENANAjHALuhnb60
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.
120Please respect copyright.PENANAGYEjzOZj2Y
Escaping the psych ward, I stand on top the military compound, looking to the merciful concrete below to end my suffering. 120Please respect copyright.PENANARVdvVykUSg
120Please respect copyright.PENANAJNjBw3Kcy3
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.

Soldier? Soldier!?
120Please respect copyright.PENANAPJhGILB3vJ
I turn to face our commander. Or…what I think is the commander…
120Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6XROzWGhI
“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!”
120Please respect copyright.PENANAecqVs98SNL
“Get down from there. That’s an order!”
120Please respect copyright.PENANAAsnALEGjoe
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.
120Please respect copyright.PENANAxc1DNID1G1
“Wait!”
120Please respect copyright.PENANAiQeiQtCfTi
I jump.
