An image of the gas attack on Arklov Military Base is displayed on a smartphone until a finger scrolls down to reveal the news headline, "ULF SUSPECTED IN DEADLY CHEMICAL WARHEAD ATTACK ON ARKLOV MILITARY BASE IN VERDANSK." The same finger scrolls down to the news article about the attack as an unseen man stands in line at a security checkpoint at Verdansk International Airport. The same man places the phone in the tray on the conveyor belt and slides it into the scanner.
News Anchor 1: A Russian delegation suffered massive casualties when they came under fire...
A security guard monitors the items in the trays on a scanner as the man walks through the detector. 
News Anchor 2: ...an estimated 158 deaths at the Kastovian base with more than 200 injured.
The man walks through a detector only for the alarm to go off.
News Anchor 2: Several explosions in an apparent chemical attack were seen by witnesses from miles away.
The man is revealed to be Vladimir Makarov as a security guard scans his body for any prohibited items. Makarov looks to his right and sees another man look back at him as he passes through the checkpoint.
News Anchor 1: The Kremlin blames Urzikstan for what they call a brutal and unjustifiable attack.
Makarov reaches into his jacket pocket to empty out its contents.
News Anchor 1: They are asking world leaders to join them in denouncing the ULF as a terrorist organization.
Makarov produces a metal item from his pocket and takes off his wristwatch as well. The airport guard nods and motions for Makarov to proceed. Makarov goes to retrieve his phone from the tray and puts it back into his jacket.
News Anchor 2: Urzikstan has been a terrorist hotspot for years, yet what has been done about it?
News Anchor 1: Absolutely nothing!
Makarov walks up to a flight board showing both arriving and departing flights at Verdansk International Airport. The other man from the checkpoint walks up and stands right next Makarov.
News Anchor 2: It's clear the ULF remains at large and, for all we know, they have weapons in striking distance of Moscow.
One of the flights displays "SOCHI", "18:45", and "ON TIME," which changes to "BOARDING". Makarov and the other man walk away from the flight board.
News Anchor 2: How do we know we're safe?
Cut to black.

SAMARA JALAL - FORMER ULF
PASSENGER
RUSSIAN FLIGHT 761
11 NOVEMBER 2023, 1930
Many passengers sit in their cabin seats on Russian Flight 761 until the pilot speaks over the audio speaker.
Russian Pilot: (in Russian) Ladies and gentlemen, we've reached our cruising altitude. You're free to move about the cabin.
The camera goes to reveal two passengers, one named Samara Jalal and a hooded man sitting next to each other by the window as Samara is seen texting in Arabic on her phone.
Flight Attendant: We're beginning out meal service. A list of selections can be found in your seat pocket.
Samara switches her phone screen to her wallpaper, which reveals her husband and two children. The hooded traveler notices the photo.
Traveler: (in Arabic) You have a beautiful family.
Samara turns to look at the hooded man.
Samara: (in Arabic) Thank you.
The hooded man's phone vibrates as he receives a text message. Samara's phone rings with a text message.
Traveler: (in Arabic) Family is everything.
Another hooded figure walks past Samara and the man.
Samara: (in Arabic) Yes. My daughter has a birthday coming. 
The traveler leans in closer to look at Samara's family photo.
Traveler: (in Arabic) Your daughter Rabia.
Samara: (in Arabic) How do you...?
The traveler smiles ominously as he points to Samara's husband and son.
Traveler: (in Arabic) Your son, Tariq. And Khalid, your husband. 
A small amount of turbulence shakes the plane.
Samara: (in Arabic) Do we know each other?
The traveler's face becomes more grim.
Traveler: (in Arabic) I know you...Samara. You were a soldier in the ULF. You fought the Russians.
Samara: (in Arabic) Yes. Years ago.
Traveler: (in Arabic) Years ago.
The traveler looks down the passenger aisle before he discreetly draws a 3-D printed X-13 Auto pistol and points it at Samara.
Traveler: (his name turns red) (in Arabic) Listen and don't speak. We are taking control of this plane. The flight crew, the air marshals. They're all with us. And so are you. For Urzikstan. Let's go.
The traveler gets up.
Traveler: (in Arabic) Get up.
The traveler grabs Samara's arm and hauls her up to her feet. Another bout of turbulence shakes the plane as the traveler looks around. 
At this point, the player can choose whether to fight to regain control of the situation or cooperate with the traveler. If the player chooses the latter, Samara takes advantage of the distraction and takes down the traveler while grabbing his pistol. The other passengers scream in alarm at the situation as Samara points her gun at the flight attendant who has her hands up.
Flight Attendant: (in Russian) She's got a gun! 
An undercover air marshal sitting among the passengers stands up and point his P890 sidearm at Samara, who lowers her newly acquired pistol and raises her hands.
Air Marshal: (in Russian) Security! Drop your weapon! (in English) Air marshal--! Drop your weapons!
Samara, not trusting the air marshal, shoots him. The passengers scream in terror as another undercover air marshal rises from his seat and tries to kill Samara. Samara kills the second air marshal in self-defense. Two hooded terrorists rush into the passenger cabin to attack Samara, who guns them down. The second hooded man deploys a flash-bang grenade as he goes down. The screen turns to white as an ear-ringing sound is heard. Samara nearly regains consciousness, but a third hooded man walks up to her and pistol-whips her in the head, knocking her out.
(If the player chooses to cooperate...)
The traveler puts Samara in front of him as they move down the aisle toward a female flight attendant. The traveler raises his pistol at the flight attendant who raises her hands in alarm. An undercover air marshal sitting among the passengers stands up and point his P890 sidearm at the traveler, while Samara raises her hands.
Flight Attendant: (in Russian) He's got a gun!
An undercover air marshal sitting among the passengers stands up and point his P890 sidearm at the traveler, while Samara raises her hands.
Air Marshal: (in Russian) Security! Drop your weapon! (in English) Air marshal--! Drop your weapons!
Samara: (in English) No no no, please, there are more-
Two more hooded hijackers appear armed with guns and speaking in Arabic.
Hijacker: Everybody down! NOW!!
Hijacker: Get down! Get down!
Hijacker: All of you! DOWN! NOW!!
Hijacker: Heads DOWN NOW!
Hijacker: In the name of the ULF!
One of the hooded hijackers calls out to Samara in English.
Hijacker: Sister! It's time! Come, now!!
Hijacker: Do your part! Join us!
The flight attendant tries to reason with the hijacker.
Flight Attendant: Stop... Stop it-! DON'T SHO--!!
The hijacker shoots the flight attendant, causing a shootout between the air marshal and the hijackers. Another undercover air marshal pops up from his seat and shoots the flight attendant's murderer.
Air Marshal 2: Drop your guns! 
Hijacker: FOR URZIKSTAN!
The two air marshals shoot the second hijacker only for three more hooded hijackers to enter the passenger cabin and shoot the air marshals in turn. The hijackers throw two flash-bang grenades in Samara's direction. The screen turns to white as an ear-ringing sound is heard. Samara nearly regains consciousness, but a third hooded man walks up to her and pistol-whips her in the head, knocking her out.
A short time later, Samara comes to as she finds herself being hauled out of the cabin by the hooded man. She notices a male flight attendant and a hooded man restraining the passengers to their seats and she is being brought into the galley where an air marshal stands by the hatch. Makarov enters the galley and meets another hooded agent who carries a bomb vest.
Makarov: (in Russian) We're descending. Give me the vest.
Makarov takes a cell phone with a timer on display out of the vest and carries the vest over to Samara.
Makarov: (in English) Hello, Samara. You exceeded my expectations today.
Makarov slips the bomb vest onto Samara.
Samara: Who do you think you are?
Makarov: This is about who you are, Samara...
Samara: What is this?
Makarov holds up the phone with the timer at 01:35:00. He presses the touchscreen and causes the timer to countdown.
Makaraov: History...
Makarov hands the beeping phone to one of his men.
Samara: Get this off of me, you fucking sunovabitch...
Makarov: Shh-shhh... You will be a hero for what you're doing here, Samara.
Samara: No one will believe you. I am not a terrorist...
Makarov: No... You're a citizen soldier inspired by Farah Karim to fight Russia. You're a freedom fighter.
Samara: You're Russian- this plane is full of Russians. How could you kill your own people?
Makarov: No, I'm not killing them... You are...
A male flight attendant enters the galley.
Male Flight Attendant: We are below eight thousand feet, sir...
Makarov nods at the attendant before turning to face Samara.
Makarov: (in Arabic) For Urzikstan, Samara... For your family...
The flight attendant opens the hatch, causing alarms to sound and air pressure to change. Makarov walks to the hatch and turns to his men one last time.
Makarov: (in Russian) Leave no trace!
Makarov and the flight attendant dive out of the hatch and into the air. A hooded man hauls Samara out of the galley and back into the passenger cabins. The passengers are passed out from depressurized air and oxygen masks hang everywhere.
Samara: Give me that phone, you sick bastard! We can stop this!
The hijacker turns to face Samara.
Hijacker: Are you a terrorist?
Samara: No...
The hijacker forcefully places his 3-D printed X-13 into Samara's hand.
Hijacker: You look like one.
The hijacker opens a curtain leading into another passenger cabin, holds up the phone timer for Samara to see, and tosses the phone into the cabin.
Hijacker: Go get it.
The hijacker throws Samara into the passenger cabin. She stumbles to the floor and rights herself up as she spots the phone several feet ahead of her. Some of the passengers, believing Samara to be a terrorist, also see the phone and place themselves between her and the phone. Samara tries to push her way past them to reach the phone
Samara: Help me! Give me the cell phone! We have to defuse the bomb!
A couple male passengers attack Samara, but she fights them off.
Samara: No! Let me go! I need to get to that phone!
Samara sees a female passenger holding the phone and trying to stop the timer
Samara: Hurry! Give it to me! Give me the phone!
The bomb explodes and destroys the plane, killing everyone on board including Samara.
The screen cuts to white.
End of level.
