p class="p1"Shan's sleeve had a hole torn in it. He had been just about to assassinate al-Baghdadi. He had seen him with his almost bald head, and bushy beard. President Trump had put a bounty on his head of a million dollars. Shan was technically on leave, so he didn't have backup from the UEO with him, but he had found al-Baghdadi thanks to Lucas' hacking skills. They would split the million dollars, if Shan could just catch him without getting himself killed. He watched him carefully through the scope on his sniper rifle. He was talking to someone Shan didn't recognize, but those were the only two people in evidence anywhere around. It was now or never. Shan pulled the trigger, and watched as al-Baghdadi crumpled to the floor. His conversation partner hit the floor too, hiding himself behind a car. Shan knew he had to get out of there before this man called an alarm and they found him. He ran. It had been a quarter of a mile shot, and they'd look much closer first. He got to a busy street and then started walking down the street. He didn't exactly fit in, being Korean in Iraq, but he could be any soldier, and wasn't necessarily the man who had just killed al-Baghdadi. He went to the nearest army base and told them what he had done. They seemed to not quite believe him, but sent helicopters to check out the area, and confirmed the kill. "Congratulations, sailor," said the base commander. "How did you do it?" They debriefed him at length, and finally sent him back to the seaQuest, with a million dollars to his name./p
