"Your out sits in the files shown before you paperwork that I personally filled out on a conditional freedom contract in the US that condition is that you help my team and I take you under my wing and show you how it's really done around here" Derron said
"and how exactly do I help your team?"
"you join us of course. you get ghillie suit training. you take a sniper class. you become one of delta squad then the 'help' varies from mission to mission but, I'm not here to force you into it since you seem to like being used as a pawn instead of respected for who you are." he said
"I don't need to be put through any type of training." she scoffed looking at him as if he was stupid
"you don't get to judge my life when everything you've ever wanted was handed to you fucking pigs."
"alright since everything is handed to me and I'm a pig I guess I'm also a heartless bastard for not attempting to give you a slightly better life you know even though I'm a 'pig'" he said
"nice one with the sarcasm, look why would I work for you?"
"better question why shouldn't you you've endured a lot of punishment from what you say and your still here which means you can take it which is useful"
"so what you want me because I can take a fucking punch?"
"no it's because you have fire and you don't break easily but I could just as easily as let you go then get captured again by someone not willing to work with you then sell you back" he said
Nikki sat for a moment looking at the ground and then looking back at the American "what you're food like here?"
"well here choose what you want I'll take you out consider it orientation" he said handing her a list of places on base they could choose from to eat
She took the list looking it over "um I have no idea what these are."
"pick a random one they're all good"
Derron waited for her to pick watching the time as military habit
"what about this one?" she said pointing to a restaurant hadn't really seen before, (idk just pick one)
"the steak place? Not too bad. Alright let's go" he said pulling a key out of his back pocket
"Yeah as soon as I get to let out of this chair. "
Derron undid her cuffs and helped her to her feet "now that that's settled go get your self some normal clothes"
She stood up and looked over at him "and where exactly would I get those?"
"From the cubby outside the door" he said
"I'm wearing a uniform? "
"no but I don't want you to be registered as a civilian either" he said opening the door for her "first door on your right can't miss it. It's labeled changing room"
"Okay so what exactly am I wearing then your not very helpful. " she said walking out of the door the changing room catching her eye instantly
