Ricochet (The Cast Part 4)

[i]"I've kept an eye on him. There isn't much to keep an eye on, when he's not deployed. He does the same thing, over and over again. He runs the same simulation, over and over again. Empty field. No cover. Unlimited number of simulated enemies. First of all one type---say, Drones---and slowly diversifying into things more likely to kill him based on how he's fighting. He fights until he dies. He always runs out of ammo. Guess he's been getting better. Stronger. Lasts longer without running out of ammo, because he uses fewer shots. Lasts longer once he's run out. Saw him beat down two Goliaths before he got swarmed under---I know it's a simulation, but I can't imagine someone wanting to die like that over and over again. He just goes back and does it again. And again, and again. You're sure this guy passed his psych eval right? I see him every time he comes out, too. He looks exhausted. Looks like he's seen a ghost. And he just looks... Guilty. Like he's done something he can never confess to. Might as well be visiting a grave of someone he murdered. Or his own grave. I dunno. ...Look, I'm just trying to say that... That I know I was assigned to track him for different reasons, but all I'm learning is that he needs a break. Maybe this is a sign, for all of them. Give them a break. The war'll still be there after they get some R & R. What happens if they [b]do[/b] have a point where they snap, and it's not on the battle field? I don't think he knows what to do, if he's not fighting. I don't think he knows what to do with the fact that he can fail. That no amount of killing for the cause will make him immortal, and he'll never know what happens after he goes down." ~ Unknown[/i]
