Top Secret Location, Home of The Regiment.
"We've got a bomb threat, Harz power plant. Some Balkans are threatening to blow the place sky high, and spread fallout all over Europe, if their demands aren't met."
"Demands?"
"The EU hands over a dozen bombs."
"Looks like we've got a job, then."
12 Hours Later, Harz, Germany. Harz Nuclear Power Plant.
Two men in blue and white enter the underground fuel rod room, cautious. A brute weapon, a block of Semtex, is stuck to the fuel rod storage.
Beep...beep...beep.
The two men clear the room, and one of them approaches the block of Semtex. He pulls out a pair of wire cutters, and looks around the block for a wire, something that is there to trigger the bomb. The other man, wielding an M4, watches his back.
The man at the bomb finally finds the wires, and quietly exclaims "Yes!" His comrade turns around, just as a terrorist peeks his head out of the control room. The terrorist fires a 4-round burst into the man's back, and the soldier at the bomb takes cover. The soldier and the terrorist both quietly stay in cover, planning their next moves. The soldier moves first, ducking into a nearby hallway and flanking the terrorist. However, the terrorist hears his footsteps, and fires a few rounds at the stairway the soldier is taking. The soldier takes a burst in the chest, but manages to stay standing and fire three shots from his pistol into the terrorist's head. The terrorist falls down, dead, and the soldier slowly, slowly walks back to the bomb. He briefly glances at his comrade, but it only takes a single glance to confirm that he's dead. The bomb starts ticking even faster, and the soldier finds the wires again, holding his cutters.
"Oh, bloody hell. Cut the wrong wire, burn Europe."
Your vision snaps into view. You're a member of the SAS, codename Tom, who is about to make the biggest choice of his life. Which wire? Red, or green?
