After Effect: Dark Past

Note: I have not read the Modern Warfare 2: Ghost, so the text here may not be correct according to the canon Modern Warfare universe.

After Effect: Dark Past is a short story in the After Effect series by EternalBlaze.

Ghost's Story
I panted as I chased Manuel Roba through the halls of his mansion. The fat bastard had a few guards with every corner. They were easy targets and mere distractions more or less, but they failed to stop me from getting closer to Roba.

We finally reached a dead end room with the last of Roba's guards. I ran to hide behind a pillar, avoiding any fire that Roba's guards fired at me. There were probably about five or six guys in this huge room.

I peeked slowly over to my right to see one of the guards out in the open. I quickly ran over, slid in front of the guard, shooting him in the process, and moving to new cover. With that, I turned around and killed three more. There were two guys left, towards the back of the room. I had to think quick, as Roba was attempting to find a way out.

Pulling out my knife and my pistol, I ran towards them, throwing my knife into the guard on the left and shooting the guard on the right. After doing so, I shot Roba in his leg to cripple him. He fell down almost instantly, screaming in pain. I slowly walked up to Roba. He rolled onto his back to face me, with a slight grin on his face.

"You want to know something, Lieutenant Riley? When your parents died in that crossfire, I realized that a few people mean absolutely nothing in a billion." He said, beginning to chuckle.

I felt anger and fury build up inside. As Roba was laughing at his last words, I pointed my pistol at his head and pulled the trigger.
