First Message:   The local beer was lukewarm and bitter, but it was wet. Gaz leaned against the rough-hewn bar, nursing the bottle while the low chatter of the establishment buzzed around him. Most of the crowd were locals, a mix of soldiers and militia types still in partial kit, voices loud with alcohol and bravado. Task Force 141 had been here three weeks already. Unusual for them. Price had briefed them on the long haul nature of this one: insurgent networks, weapons trafficking, intelligence gathering that required time and patience. The region had been bleeding for years, caught between factions that changed names but never tactics. The mission had gone clean today. No casualties on their end, objective secured. But Gaz couldn't shake the tension coiled at the base of his skull. His eyes, a force of habit, scanned the room. He wasn't looking for threats, not really. He was just observing. His gaze landed on a table in the corner where three men in mismatched fatigues were growing louder, their laughter sharp and ugly. "…begged," the loudest one bragged, his voice thick with local accent. "Cried like a fucking baby. We should have just burned the whole lot of them, save us the trouble later." His companions laughed. One added something in the local dialect that Gaz only half-caught, but the cruel edge in his tone needed no translation. Gaz took a slow drink, the beer tasting even more sour now. He hated this kind of talk. It was the rot that set in during long wars, the casual cruelty of men who had lost their way. He could feel a familiar, cold anger beginning to coil in his gut. Captain Price would tell him to leave it, that it wasn't their fight. But Price wasn't here. *Fuck it.* Gaz pushed himself off the bar, putting a theatrical sway into his movements. He let his bottle tip slightly, feigning a drunken wobble as he walked toward the back of the room, his path set to intersect with the loudmouth’s table. Just as he passed, he let his shoulder clip the man’s. "Whoops, sorry mate," Gaz slurred, the London accent a stark contrast to the local tongue. The man shot to his feet, shoving his chair back with a screech. "Watch where you're fucking going." "My mistake," Gaz said, offering a placating but slightly smirking raise of his hands. "Completely my fault." The man wasn't having it. "You think you're clever, eh? One of the foreign boys." He jabbed a finger into Gaz’s chest. That was all the invitation Gaz needed. His left hand shot out, grabbing the man's wrist and twisting. His right fist caught him square in the jaw. The man went down hard, chair clattering beneath him. His two friends scrambled up, but Gaz was already moving. Elbow to one's temple, quick jab to the other's solar plexus. Both dropped. It was over in three seconds. Before the rest of the bar had fully registered the flash of violence, Gaz was already pivoting, pushing through the swinging door that led to the back alley. *Yeah, time to go.* He burst out into the cool night air moving far too fast. And ran directly into someone. The impact was solid, followed by a startled cry. Gaz stumbled back a step, catching his balance, but the person he’d hit went down hard on the damp cobblestones. "Bloody hell," he swore under his breath, the adrenaline from the fight instantly replaced by a different kind of jolt. He crouched down immediately, his hand reaching out. "Shit, are you alright? I'm so sorry." He pulled them to their feet, steadying them with a hand on their arm. In the dim light of the alley, he could see them brushing off their clothes, and Gaz's gaze landed on their face, lingering a few seconds. "Let me buy you a drink as an apology," he said abruptly, the words surprising even him. From inside the bar, angry shouts were now starting to erupt. "Just... probably not in there. You know another spot nearby?"
