Bishop here, still snowed in, so i'll tell you a story.
Operation Nine hammers was my first barbecue. Three way dog fight. (marines have gone rogue in Afghanistan, army rangers are there to retrieve them, local resistance is there to cause problems).
We were the resistance. most of our team mates arrived in desert camo to run and gun... not us. We showed up in full desert garb, prop I.E.D.s, and attitude... needless to say, we we're something else...
Many things worthy of story happened that day... but I'm here to talk about Hobbit, my girlfriend.
I didn't think she would have any interest in this. She's clumsy and has no interest in related fields. Needless to say i was surprised when the obligatory "do you want to come too"? Got such and emphatic response. I was much more surprised at her performance.
The game began! All teams rushed to take the city, we got there first. The good news is we held the city... the not so good news is that i was "killed" in the process. I went to re-spawn (because war has re-spawn points) and found my beloved there also fallen in defense of her "homeland". Time came to get back in.
We left with 12+ other team mates... 45 minutes later I turn to hobbit, motion to the last three alive, and say "lets ditch these guys". Yes...the last three! Here we are. Two newbies in bright white shirts alongside all these "experienced ass-kickers" (direct quote) in camo, i'm 6'3", 300 ibs. and spent must of the day functionally blind and we out survived them.
We head to regroup. she was three steps ahead of me. Two bb's move past my face, and one hits me in the elbow... I am dead. I call my hit, then sit waiting for Hobbit to go down. She turns, pops three semi-automatic shots and I hear two voices call out HIT!! And she takes a knee. I'm relatively stunned. All I could do was say "I love you" and wait to finish bleeding out. I did so, and walked to respawn... I didn't see her again til lunch...
The moral of this story; shoot Bishop all you want, but be warned. A cute girl may come through the woods and take revenge on your ass.
Yes. I am just that awesome.
