Karachi, Pakistan
In the city of Karachi while on a beautiful morning, there is a Pakistani man with a shaggy beard wearing a Khyber Pakhtunkhwa with a pakol on his head walking through the crowded streets. He nervously looked around to make sure that he's not being followed. He then came up to a green car and gets into the passenger seat where there is a woman is sitting in the driver seat. She is wearing a Shalwar Kameez with hijab only revealing her face showing she has brown skin and green eyes. When the man entered the car, he was feeling afraid of the woman.
"ٹھیک ہے (Well?)" The woman asked in Urdu.
The man didn't answered as he was still feeling nervous with concerns of the woman.
"خالد؟ (Khalid?)" The woman called out the man to get him to talk.
"دیکھو ... مجھے اپنے خاندان کو دور کرنا پڑا. (Look...I had to move my family away.)" Said the man named Khalid. "چونکہ میں آپ کے بارے میں معلومات جمع کر رہا تھا، بہت سے لوگ میرے بارے میں بہت شبہ گزار رہے تھے. (A lot of people were getting very suspicious about me since I was gathering information for you.)"
"آپ اس کے بارے میں فکر کرنے کی ضرورت نہیں ہے. (You don't need to worry about that right now.)" Said the woman. "آپ سب کو یہ کرنے کی ضرورت ہے کہ مجھے بتاؤ جو لوگ اغوا کرتے ہیں اور ان لوگوں کو عمل کرتے ہیں جو میں جانتا ہوں. (All you need to do is tell me who are the ones kidnapping and executing people that I know.)"
"وہ مجھے مار ڈالیں گے اور میرے خاندان کے بعد جائیں گے. (They will kill me and will go after my family.)"
"اگر آپ جو کچھ کرتے ہیں، اور ہم آپ اور آپ کے خاندان کی حفاظت کر سکتے ہیں. (And we can protect you and your family if you do what I say.)"
There was then a moment of silence as Khalid started to think about his current predicament. After a minute of conversation, Khalid gets out of the car and walks off. The woman then pulls out a phone and starts to text someone. Suddenly a middle eastern man, who is in his thirties, wearing also in an Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, has short hair, green eyes and a scruffy beard witnessed khalid walking off. He then received a text from his phone and starts to walk to the car where the woman is. Suddenly a van speeds out from nowhere on to the sidewalk where the man was and four men rush out of the van carrying AK rifles and wearing chest rigs and ski mask to hide their faces and started chasing the man. The man was too slow to react as he was shot in the back of his leg falling like a limp rag doll. The shot echoed around the city's buildings and the onlookers stopped to look at the scene unfolding. The woman in the car was shocked that the man that she knows was shot. The armed men grabbed a hold of the man and started dragging him into the van. He tried to fight back but couldn't and the armed men manage to get him in the van and drove off with him. The woman just couldn't believe that this happened to the man and there was nothing that she couldn't do. Nothing but look at the man's blood left on the dirty city streets from his leg.
"Shit." The woman swore in english and even hit the wheel with her hand.
The woman hit the gas pedal and peeled out of the aria off before more masked men could come after her as well. A few moments passed and the bystanders went back to the daily activities as quickly it all happened as if nothing important happened.

Classified Military Intelligence Headquarters
In a control room of the headquarters building, military intelligence operatives watch the horrific footage on a big screen T.V. monitor in real time. In the footage of armed Middle Eastern men held another middle eastern man who is all bloody and bruised up. The armed me are wearing ski masks to hide their face and are carrying AK rifles. One of the armed men pulls out a pistol and aims it at the hostage and says:
"الله سب سے بڑا ہے. (Allah is the greatest.)"
The man then executed the hostage with a bullet to the head splattering blood everywhere and the hostage dies instantly. The footage then ended but the operatives in the control room couldn't believe that this happened and disgusted.
"Savages" One of the support staff operatives blurted out.
In the room is Commanding Officer Major Allura Brooks, a thirty year old African British woman with dark green eyes, brown skin and long, curly black hair which is tucked into a neat bun and is wearing a military multicam uniform along with the rest of the operatives in the Military Intelligence Headquarters. Next to her is Lieutenant Coran Smythe, a Caucasian British half irish man with black eyes, short orange hair, and a bushy orange mustache and wearing a multicam uniform.
"This is the fifth MI6 operative killed in Pakistan and this time it's our contact." Said Allura. "Amir Tabbal was operating in Pakistan for two years and was even ex-special forces of the British SBS."
"This has to be ISI doing." Said Coran. "There's no bloody way in hell that they managed to find out who those operatives are...they even killed one of my friends' operatives from MI6. His operative was very deep inside Pakistan giving information about ISI and a few terrorist cells operating there."
"Possibly but-"
Suddenly the tv screen change and shows images information of a middle eastern woman with long black hair, green eyes and have brown skin and wearing a suit
"Sergeant Trigel Khan." Allura explained. "One of ours. Ex-Royal Marine Commando and has valuable information about who's really responsible for this and needs to be extracted out of the country before these hostiles get to her."
"We're going to need a covert extraction team to get her out...a team who can get in and get out without drawing attention to the Pakistani government and even ISI."
"I've recruited new lions who can do the job and I'll be leading them."
Coran then turns to Allura with a questionable look on his face curious about her decision.
"You sure about these Yanks?" Coran asked.
"I'm positive." Said Allura. "I'll be joining them at the airfield and brief them on the Hercules. They should already be there."

In the airfield next to a C130 is a team in civilian attire checking their gear and waiting for someone to meet with them. They are most likely the new recruits for Allura's Military Intelligence Unit. All of them seem like their still in their twenties. One is Hunk Momoa, a young Samoan American man who is taller than the rest of the recruits and muscular, has medium brown skin, black medium haircut rather short, his bangs reaching just under his eyes, while the rest of his hair barely reaches his neck and has a beard and brown eyes and is wearing a orange long sleeve shirt with a green sleeveless jacket over it, green pants and sneakers. The other is Lance Santo, a young Cuban American man who is built as a athlete, has with light brown skin, short brown hair which has two strands of hair that sprout from the top of his head, thin eyebrows, and blue eyes and even has a scar on his right eyebrow and is wearing a blue button down shirt, white cargo pants and tactical shoes, next is Katie Holt, a young Italian American woman who is a moderate height in her twenties, slightly muscular build, has short light brown hair with two strands of hair that sprout from the top of her head, one slightly longer than the other, brown eyes but also wears glasses, and fair skin and is wearing a blue jean jacket over her green shirt and blue jeans pants and sneakers. The last recruit is Keith Yeun, a young Korean American man who is built as a martial artist athlete, with pale skin, black hair with uneven-cut bangs that tend to sweep to the left of his face, length averaging just under his eyes, but framing his face slightly longer and curled at his cheekbones and the rest of his hair reaches the base of his neck, fairly thick eyebrows, and blue-gray eyes and is wearing a red long sleeve shirt, blue jeans and sneakers.
"So...how is it that four Americans like us are working for the Brits?" Questioned Lance.
"It's a Global unit." Pidge replied. "Meaning it's not just British or Americans but everybody in the task force."
"Still feel strange about it."
"You'll get used to it."
"Well...can we introduce ourselves or are we going to be quiet all the time. I'll start first. I'm Lance Santos, former Marine Sniper."
Keith gives out a defeated sigh as he decided to go first.
"Keith Yeun...from the 75th Rangers."
"I'm Hunk Momoa...Rangers and EOD." Hunk introduced himself.
"Momoa? What kind of name is that?" Lance asked.
"It's Hawaiian. I'm half Samoan."
"What about you cutie? I'm guessing Air Force?" Lance asked Pidge who is busy checking her gear.
"Just call me Pidge and I'm Army...CST." Pidge answered.
"What that?"
"Cultural Support Team." Keith answered. "Most likely Rangers for women. Her job is to work with the female locals and children. Me and her served together since three years back."
"Huh...that's cool."
"Yeah but most of the women I was helping tried to kill me and my guys since they were working for Al-qaeda or Taliban." Said Pidge
"Yep woman strap explosives to their children, send then in to the crowded streets and press the detonator killing their children and everyone else."
"How can you reason with someone like that?" Hunk Momoa asked.
"With a 5.56 round to the head." Pidge answered.
Lance was then impressed of what military job that Pidge had and how she can take care of herself. Later a HMMWV drives up to the team and coming out from it is Allura where Keith, Pidge, Hunk and Lance give their full attention to her.
"Good...all of you here and most likely introduced yourselves. My name is Major Allura Brooks and I'm you're commanding officer of Voltron. Our mission today is to retrieve our own operative from Pakistan before she'll get killed by whoever hunting her and other undercover operatives stationed there. Five MI6 operatives were murdered in Pakistan and our operative have information who are responsible for these horrific attacks and we need to extract her."
"And we have to get out quickly before Pakistan government knows we're there." Keith guessed.
"Correct...even from ISI who might be behind these attacks. We get in, get Sergeant Khan and get out. This is a deniable op. Meaning no backup as no one will know that we're there rescuing our own. If the OP goes sideways, we will regroup at the United States Embassy and contact headquarters to figure out what to do."
Allura turns to the C-130 and walks into the plane with her gear.
"Welcome to Voltron, lions."

Karachi, Pakistan
It is now nightfall in the city in Pakistan and about to be midnight. In a apartment building, there is Sergeant Trigel Khan who is gathering her things. She even place some files into her suitcase. She then hears a knock on the which made her pull out her Glock and aims it at the door. Khan may think that it's the same people who kidnapped and executed the MI6 agent from the other day after she met her contact.
"أزرق. أزرق. (Blue. Blue)" Said a female voice on the other side of the door in arabic.
When Khan heard the codewords that's in Arabic, she holstered her pistol and opens the door. On the other side are Major Brooks and her team except for Hunk who is waiting in a car. Allura and her team are wearing robes with hoodies over their heads except for Allura and Pidge who are wearing hijabs over their heads and under their robes they're wearing casual civilian clothing but wearing tactical belts with pouches that holds ammo for their weapons and holsters for their pistols. Also underneath their shirts are their plate carriers. They are with modified AKMs fitted with eotech sights and suppressors and their sidearms are Glock pistols. Khan invited the team in. Allura removed her hijab as she wants to face Khan who was glad to see her.
"Glad to see you here, ma'am." Said Sergeant Khan.
"Glad to see that you're alive, Sergeant." Allura replied. "What can you tell us?"
"Ma'am...my contact told me that ISI are involved."
"Are these guys that good?" Keith asked.
"Yes but...someone has been giving information to ISI for them to snatch the agents and giving them to the people they hired them to kidnap."
Soon the sound of cars pulling up outside drew the attention of the Operators in the building. Even Hunk knew the the cars pulling up and had to ready his rifle.
"Is that more of you guys?" Khan asked as Keith went to the window quickly, looking outside to see who had pulled up outside.
"Shit… we're made we have to go now!" Keith said as he went to the door.
Opening the door, Keith saw two men running up the stairs with black shemagh over their heads and carrying AK rifles. Curse he raised up hid AK and open fired on the two men and killed them as a few bullets pierced into their bodies. After seeing two of their comrades dead, the rest of the attackers sprinted to the building. Keith, Lance and Pidge takes position as they were about to get into a gunfight.
"Time to go now!" Keith yelled to which Trigel nodded as she grabbed her gear.
"Alright. Let's get the fuck out of here." Trigel said drawing Keith's attention after grabbing her things.
As Keith turned his head to look at Trigel, an attacker threw a grenade up to their floor. As the grenade landed and rolled across the floor, the operators watched before some started rushing back into the room. Allura grabbed Khan and dragged her to the ground and into the wall, protecting her with her body, hoping her plate carrier would catch most of the fragmentation.
Outside, Hunk was taking fire as he was getting out from his SUV and had his head down to avoid the bullets flying above him. Coming outside are Lance and Pidge comes out of the building and helps Hunk get into the building providing covering fire.
"MOMOA MOVE!" Yelled Pidge.
"MOVING!" Yelled Hunk.
Hunk gets up and starts climbing up the stairs to get inside the room. Next was Pidge after pat Lance on the should and then rushes back to the apartment building while Lance provides covering fire. Lance was the last person outside taking on the armed men. Keith was next to the door and was providing covering fire to get his comrade in the building.
"SANTOS MOVE!" Yelled Keith.
"MOVING!" Lance yelled back.
Lance rushes back into the apartment building while Keith provides covering fire for him. Lance finally made it back into the building as he joins his teammates to hold off the armed men outside using his impressive marksmanship as he shot down and killed any combatant that is in his sights. More armed attackers keeps coming and soon the team are going to be surrounded and outnumbered.
"We need a way out of here!" Yelled Lance.
"No shit!" Pigde tells back as she ducks down and inserts a fresh magazine into her AK.
Hunk quickly thought of an idea as he quickly starts to dig into his backpack that he was able to pull out from his car and pulled out two Claymores and place them on the wall from the back of the room.
"Yo Hunk whatcha doing?!" Lance asked as he reloads his AK.
"Making an exit!" Hunk answered as he sets the explosives.
After arming the two claymores, Hunk stood back and pulled out a the two triggers that detonates the two explosives. When the team sees what Hunk about to do they starts to make room and cover their head so that they won't get caught in the blast as did the same to Major Brooks and Sergeant Khan.
"FIRE IN THE HOLE!" Hunk yelled.
Hunk triggered the charge and it exploded. After it explode, it created a giant hole in the wall which leads outside of the back of the apartment.
"That'll work!" Said Pidge.
"I got point!" Said Hunk.
Hunk got up and walks into the hole and the rest of the team follows.
"Lets go now!" Allura yelled to Trigel.
Allura helped Khan to their feet while the rest of the operators came out from the room through the hole in the wall, letting Allura and Trigel to trail behind a bit as Keith, Lance, Pidge and Hunk take point.
"Ma'am I can fight." Said Sergeant Khan.
"I know but we can't risk having you shot or killed." Said Major Brooks.
"Who the hell were those guys?" Lance asked.
"Possibility ISI." Keith answered. "Those guys can fight."
"Doesn't matter who these bastards are just fucking shoot them!" Hunk said as he checked the mag of his AK.
The team are now in the streets which people in the city starts to run for their lives when they saw the operators carrying their rifles. The team then knew that they have to get out of the city immediately before Pakistani police or military arrives.
"Hunk, Pidge." Allura said looking at the two. "Can you split off and find us a car and meet us here?"
"Will do, Major." Pidge excepted with a nod.
Pidge and Hunk starts to break off from the team as they look for a vehicle for the team to evac. As the rest of the team tries to hold off the ensuing onslaught of attackers.
"I swear there's more guys coming at us than the Chinese could throw at us." Said Lance.
"Are you seriously jinxing us right now?!" Keith questioned.
"Dude just shoot the bad guys and have some fun."
Suddenly more fighters who came round a corner and starts shooting at the operators and had to take cover as the four enters a market building. Keith and Lance returns fire on the attackers as they stand their ground until Pidge and Hunk arrives with cars.
"Hey Keith!" Lance called.
"What?!" Keith questioned while focusing on shooting at the attackers.
"Bet $50 I'll get more kills than you!"
"Seriously?!" Keith questioned and giving Lance a confused look on his face as he takes cover as he was getting shot at.
"Yeah seriously!"
"We're already in combat and you're fucking doing this now?!
"Yeah starting now! You in?!"
Keith was completely confused that Lance wants to play bets with him while they're in a middle of a gunfight against unknown shooters. He thinks that there is something wrong with him. Before Keith could answered, Keith and Lance sees the attackers shooting at something else that's making their way to the market. It was Hunk and Pidge "commandeered" two cars and drove up to pick up the rest of the operators.
"LET'S GO!" Hunk yelled as he pulled up to the group.
The operators started piling into the cars as rounds flew all around them tearing up the surrounding walls. As the Operators got in Allura and Kahn had gotten separated from the group getting into Hunk's car. Cursing under their breath from the incoming fire the two got into Pidge's car and peeled out behind Hunk. As the two drove off from the area and watched as the attackers disappeared as they turned a corner. In the car the operators let out a small chuckle as they followed Hunk through the eerily quiet streets. Allura looked up to the rooftops of the passing buildings.
"RPG! Rooftop!" Allura yelled as the fighter with the RPG fired.
Pidge swerved off the main road and into an alley to escape the certain death if they continued following Hunk.
"Damn, we have to link up with everyone else." Sergeant Khan said looking out the rear window as the fireball from the RPG died down behind them.
"I'm working on it." Pidge said as she turned onto a street from the alley and started following it. "We'll follow this road and we should…"
As Pidge was explaining her plan to Allura and Khan a car rammed into their side as they drove through the intersection, sending them into the wall. Allura and Trigel slammed into each other in the back seat of the car, Allura laying on the floor groaning in pain, while Khan laid on the seat. Pidge however was slumped over the steering wheel unresponsive. Soon several more cars pulled up and several men with AKs got out, walking over to the car. As they were prying open the door Trigel looked up at them and her heart dropped as the door opened. As she went to grab her pistol, she was grabbed and yanked out of the car, landing on the hard pavement with a thud before one of the men gave her a swift kick to her head. As her vision blurred she watched as Allura was pulled from the car and the two were bound and her vision went dark as a black bag was put over her head. Listening to what was happening she could only assume that the group was put into a car and then drove off from the site of the crash.
