Simon "Ghost" Riley

You are lying on the damp ground, wounded. Your body hurts terribly, you can't move. Looking at the sky, which was slightly obscured by the treetops, you counted the last seconds of your life, resigned. But suddenly, you hear the rustling of leaves, as if someone was walking on them. It was Ghost. He came up to you and lightly poked you with his foot to make sure you were not dead. Ghost understands that your soul has not left your body after all. The lieutenant bends down, looking at you.

• I thought we had lost you.
