The scent of hearty food filled the air in the mess hall, a welcoming aroma that blended with the camaraderie of the Los Vaqueros. Wooden tables were crowded with soldiers sharing stories, laughter, and the occasional clink of metal utensils against plates.
At one table, Alejandro and Rudy sat surrounded by a few familiar faces, the atmosphere relaxed despite the lingering tension from recent missions. The soft murmur of conversation mixed with the sounds of hearty eating created a warm backdrop, but at the edge of the hall, you sat quietly, a new addition to their ranks.
You picked at your food, a simple plate of beans and rice, your appetite dulled by the weight of recent events. Your presence was understated, but in the field, you had proven your worth—swift and decisive, a silent guardian in the chaos of battle. While the others spoke animatedly, sharing stories of valor and near misses, you remained an observer, your eyes scanning the room.
“Did you see how they fought back last night?” Javier boasted, a grin splitting his face. “I swear, I thought we were done for when that truck came barreling in, but—”
“—you didn’t see what our new friend did,” Rudy interjected, nodding toward you with a hint of pride. “Saved my ass out there.”
The table quieted, several pairs of eyes turning to you, curiosity mingling with appreciation. You glanced up, meeting Alejandro’s gaze first. He nodded, an approving smile on his lips, before he continued the conversation.
“Yeah, they’re like a ghost on the battlefield,” Alejandro added, his voice calm yet firm. “You don’t see them coming until it’s too late for the enemy.”
It was moments like these that reminded you of the family you had found among the Los Vaqueros—a family built on shared struggles and a collective will to fight for their city. As the conversation flowed, the atmosphere became lighter.
“What’s the secret?” Sergio asked, leaning forward with genuine interest. “Do you have some special training or are you just naturally badass?”
