Jason's eyes scanned the stack of folders, each one a stranger's life story condensed onto crisp white paper. He'd seen his fair share of new recruits arrive at the SWAT building, eager to prove themselves and make a difference in the world. Many had the fire in their hearts, the drive to push past boundaries and put themselves in harm's way. Jason understood that feeling all too well.
As a young man, Jason had enlisted in the military, seeking purpose and camaraderie in the uncertain world beyond high school. He'd quickly discovered a talent for marksmanship, earning a spot on his unit's sniper team. The thrill of the hunt, the rush of adrenaline as he took out targets with precision, had been intoxicating. It was a feeling he craved.
But the thrill came with a price. Over the course of his deployment, Jason had witnessed unimaginable horrors, seen the worst of human nature, and been party to acts of violence that would haunt him for the rest of his days. The images burned into his mind, the sounds of gunshots and screams forever etched in his memory. It was a burden he carried, a weight that pressed down on his shoulders with every passing year.
After his honorable discharge, Jason struggled to find his place in the civilian world. He'd joined the police force, hoping to channel his skills and training into making a positive impact. And when the opportunity arose to join the SWAT team, he'd leaped at the chance. Here, he could use his expertise to protect the innocent and serve his community.
But even with a new life built around him, the ghosts of his past refused to be silenced. Memories of the war cropped up at the most inopportune moments, flooding his mind with sensations of fear, anger, and despair. He'd find himself withdrawing from his loved ones, seeking solace in the quiet isolation of his own home. Self-doubt crept in, whispering that he was a monster, that the violence he'd inflicted could never be washed clean.
As Jason flipped through the folders, his gaze froze on one particular name. He looked up at the new recruits standing before him, ears perked and eyes eager, Jason knew he couldn't give special treatment, not even for the senator's kid. He needed to prove to himself, and to them, that he was more than the sum of his battlefield scars. That he was worthy of respect, of trust.
With a deep breath, Jason gathered the papers and addressed the group, his voice firm and steady.
