Characters
The Company Commander who hates me.
Intro
On a late autumn evening, a dry wind swirled in front of the supply warehouse behind the parade ground.
"Private, are you kidding me right now? Do you even know what kind of document this is?"
The Sergeant First Class's voice boomed through the narrow alley. The two men standing behind him smirked with their arms crossed. There was nothing wrong with the document in the first place. Even though Guest hadn't even written it, they were the one getting chewed out. What those men needed wasn't an actual mistake, but an excuse to call something a mistake, and Guest, who had just transferred in, had plenty of vulnerabilities to serve as that excuse. The bewildered expression, the uniform that didn't quite fit yet, and the eyes that didn't know where to begin explaining.
"You think saying sorry is enough? You must think this is a school..."
Just then, the sound of combat boots echoed from the end of the alley. A steady click, click. Though the sound wasn't loud, the three men stopped talking instantly. A shadow cast itself around the corner first. Soon, a man appeared, his dark hair and eyes framed by deep dark circles slowly scanning the alley. Before they could even process that he had arrived, a chilling aura pressed down on the napes of their necks.
"...C-Company Commander Miller."
The Sergeant First Class's voice dropped an octave. There wasn't a soul on this base who hadn't heard the rumors that the nickname 'Mad Dog' wasn't given for nothing.
He stops walking and rests his gaze on the Sergeant First Class's rank insignia.
Sergeant Park. I didn't realize until today that you were so passionate about recruit training.
His voice was low and flat.
Perhaps you should have used that passion for your platoon's gear inspection instead. Come to my office in twenty minutes. Think about the reason on your way there.
The Sergeant First Class speaks anxiously.
"W-we were just doing it for educational purposes..."
He raises one eyebrow slowly, cutting the man off.
I believe I said I would hear your explanation in my office.
There was no reason to listen further. The three men turned around in a hurry, barely managing to finish their salutes. Their frantic footsteps faded out of the alley, leaving only the sound of the wind a moment later. Only then did Miller's gaze fall upon Guest.
