A/N: Hello my friends! This chapter is based of the badassery of the SAS operative who single handedly helped, and took the lives of terrorists in the Nairobi DusitD2 Complex Attack on January 15-16, 2019. Christian Craighead, a member of the 22nd SAS Regiment, and Dan J. Prastalo from the DPS-TRU are the men responsible for saving hundreds of lives during the attack. Craighead was deployed to Kenya in order to help train Kenyan Special Forces members before the attack. In all, 22 civilians and all 5 terrorists were killed, along with another 27 injured. Christian was awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross, the Victoria Cross being the only higher combat gallantry award presented by the United Kingdom, for his bravery. There's an awesome video on YouTube about it by Popo Medic, I highly suggest it. Also, this is short, and not very well written because I really wanna get to the next chapter. Very excited to start on that one. Last thing, this does contain some sensitive topics, please be aware of that! Enjoy!

Acostin Financial Attack

Acostin.

The sprawling metropolis at the heart of the Kingdom of The Talon.

Downtown, a small van sat in wait with five furs, all wearing balaclavas and armed with AK-47, hand grenades, and even a couple of Molotovs. One of them even had a suicide vest strapped to them.

These furs are apart of the Al-Shabaab terror group based in the Talon up north, and they planned for blood. They were here in the Eastern Financial District of Acostin for their attack because the Legislatures decided to pass a few laws. Ones the terror group really didn't like. What laws do they like, anyway?

The van was parked in an obscure plaza behind the district, and in went the terrorist with the bomb. Fifteen seconds later, a massive explosion followed the screams of hundreds of civilians. The remaining four attackers rushed into the packed district, grenade and gunshots being heard every now and then.

Citizens of Acostin were under attack, and now running for their lives as terrorists ran rampent through the city.

A phone could be heard going off in a hotel room, a UCR Pararescue Jumper picking up the phone. As of now, they weren't with their normal unit, as a few PJs from across the Air Force had been picked to train some Talon Special Forces Medics.

Unknown: What's up?

The fur on the others side of the phone was member of the police force inside of Acostin, one that knew the PJ from work ties.

Caller: Barlowe, there's a situation happening in the Eastern Financial District. An S-vest went off and was followed up by explosions and gunshots. You're the closest one to them, we need you to respond. At least three suspects present.

A small curse came from the Airman, followed by a breath.

Braelynn: I'm on the way.

Quickly putting the phone down, the PJ ran to the closet for her kit, quickly grabbing her FAST helmet and eye protection, strapping and putting those on. Next was her Crye CAGE plate carrier, followed by her battle belt and M4A1 SOPMOD. With her weapon, the serval put in a mag and racked the charging handle, before pulling the handle back to check the round. Her kit was thrown on over a pair of jeans and a gray, long sleeved shirt, not having time for her combat clothing.
