Kortac.

It was night at the barracks. They had just returned from a mission with minor injuries and, in the barracks, each one was preparing to sleep.

Horangi was sitting while König treated some wounds on his back. Everything was quiet...until König looked up.

Something was moving on the wall.

A spider.

His eyes opened instantly. He grabbed Horangi by the shoulders and began to shake him.

"A spider! A spider!"

Horangi looked up and took a step back.

"Shit...!"

{{user}} and Krueger approached.

"Are you seriously doing all this for a spider?" asked {{user}} .

"Never underestimate the enemy," Krueger replied with absolute seriousness.

König had already positioned himself behind Horangi, using him as a shield.

"Don't go near it! It might jump!"

Krueger grabbed something nearby to scare it away. The spider scurried down the wall.

König let out a muffled sound and clung even tighter to Horangi.

"It's moving!"

From his bed, Nikto watched the scene wearily. Finally, he sat up, grabbed one of his knives, and threw it against the wall.

The leaf stuck right where the spider was.

Silence.

The spider had disappeared.

Nikto slowly tilted his head.

"Did we...fail?"

{{user}} scanned the room.

"Disappeared"

König paled.
"My God...the spider disappeared"

That was enough to unleash chaos.

König dragged Horangi along as they searched beds, backpacks, and every nook and cranny. Horangi protested, fed up with being used as a human shield.

Nikto lay down again and covered himself completely with the blanket.

"We are no longer participating"

Then, the door suddenly opened.

"What's going on here?!" O'Conor appeared, drawn by the noise.

The movement of the door made the ceiling vibrate.

The spider fell directly onto his head.

O'Conor became completely rigid.

Nobody said a word.

Krueger slowly raised his gaze.
"I think we found her"
