“Get up. We’re moving.” HUNK ordered suddenly.
“Yes sir.” Butterfly said as she stood.
HUNK handed her back the camera-case as she dusted herself off quickly. He scanned the woods one more time, and turned around.
“By the way,” he said. “I wasn’t supposed to tell you until you had returned to Rockfort with the objective. But there’s no one here to stop me. We’re making you Lieutenant.”
Butterfly paused, only for a second, before smiling proudly. That put her one rank below HUNK. Meaning that if she did make the cut for Alpha Unit, she would be his second-in-command. She tightly gripped the camera-case in her hand as she followed him through the woods, now more eager to return back to base than ever.
“Just do me a favor.” HUNK said.
“Yes sir?”
“Don’t go getting yourself killed.”
Butterfly smiled. “Yes, sir.”
