Hope squinted her eyes at the plaque when he was finished, taking her time to read through all the names that were put onto it. A few she actually recognized, not knowing them in real life, but heard or talked about them from conversations in the walls. Hope heard them the most from Caroline, even though it was rare for her to talk about her past, just stuff about the present. If Hope ever asked Caroline something related to her training days or earlier Garrison years, she wouldn't stop talking about the topic until most of it was explained. Caroline managed to memorize most of the important names, almost all being currently dead. When Hope went back through all the explanations Caroline said to her, the palms of her hands starting to get clammy, making her form tight fists. She could easily imagine being in Caroline's point of view, watching her friends die in front of her or hearing it from other members that they passed away. Caroline always said at the end: [color=2e3192]"They didn't deserve to die."[/color] That very quote led up to the day Hope shifted when [i]those[/i] people died and didn't deserve it. Her squad members, the Scouting soldiers, the innocent bystanders. The life-changing event started flashing back to her. Now Hope was shaking violently next to Grant, staring at the ground with her hair covering her face, and her hands still closed tightly. She said repeatedly in a low tone, [color=ed1c24]"I'm sorry. I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry."[/color]
