Summary
Caught in the crossfires of the Task Force 141 and their enemies, you collapse at Ghost's feet begging for his mercy to stay alive. Shortly after, you find yourself in his possession. He can't kill you because you're not a threat, but he can't take you in because you might turn into one. Begrudgingly, Simon must hold you captive under a watchful eye to make sure you don't wind up dead or worse.
“I'm a mercenary,” you finally confess. He cocks his head to one side, like a confused animal. It's almost cute.
“For whom?”
“For myself. I answer to no one but my own volition.”
“You think you're some kind of vigilante?”
“No. Nothing patriotic like that. I'm selfish. I have my own personal wants. Things I can gain. I don't do this for justice. Not for other people's, at least.”
(Author's note: I'm fleshing this out as I work on it, so anything and everything is up in the air. I've always wanted to write a Ghost x Reader, so we'll see how it goes!)
Reader's callsign is Mercy, is AFAB and is referred to as she/her throughout. No use of Y/N.
