Be Advised: This will probably be the shortest op/chapter in this remake because this is just Farah and Hadir's origin story, of course. All I can really do here is update the locations and characters.

08:20:04, while passed out, Farah remembers the first, unforgettable moment she was forced into war. It all started when Imran Zakhaev had beaten Vladimir Putin for the position of Prime Minister of Russia back in August 16th, 1999 and initiated a campaign that will finish what the bygone Soviet Union started: the Second Soviet-Afghan War.

Farah Karim

Kabul, Afghanistan

--

Ten years had passed since the end of the First Soviet-Afghan War, and Russia unleashed Hell on Afghanistan once again. Starting off with a massive shock and awe 100 hour air campaign on the capital that demolished almost all of the tall buildings and trapped countless people under the rubble.

A seven-year-old Farah Karim and her mother, Fatima Karim, were among the victims. With some quick thinking under desperation, Farah got the attention of the Afghan emergency responders and was saved.

She and her father, Walid Karim, then immediately found out that Fatima did not survive the bombing of the store she and Farah were just in. With no time to even mourn, more bombs dropped in, and the Russian Ground Forces made their toxic entrance with their Sarin Gas.

So Walid and his daughter rushed to their home to fetch the ten-year-old Hadir Karim. Unfortunately, a Russian soldier barged in to kill the already decimated Karim Family before they could put their escape plan in motion.

This led to Walid, Farah and Hadir killing the enemy trooper with knives, scissors, screwdrivers and his own AK-47. But the father got wounded during the start of the fight, which made him tell his children to leave him behind, get out of Kabul, and survive by any means necessary.

So, with two gas masks, Farah and Hadir left their home and snuck out of the city and into the outskirts. They then spotted an empty KamAZ-4350 troop transport truck that only had two Russian soldiers guarding it.

To take it, they used their cellphones and a civilian's Smith and Wesson Model 29 revolver to line them up and double headshot them. However, before they could have driven away, more enemy troopers found and captured them for Prime Minister Imran Zakhaev himself.

Who was around to establish a concentration camp for The Afghan People.

Imran Zakhaev: (Dari) So you are the little devils who killed three of my soldiers. Interesting. *chokes Farah out cold*

Farah and Hadir were then kept in a developing death camp until The Wolf and his Al-Qaeda and Taliban men raided the installation, rescued them, and raised them as terrorists to be used during the early years of the War on Terror. But when they started realizing what they and their fellow Al-Qaeda/Taliban brothers and sisters were actually doing to Afghanistan eight years later, they broke off with some trustworthy friends and gave the Afghan National Army valuable intel in exchange for lifelong military service.

And the rest is history. Present day, 08:40:13, the British S.A.S. arrives at the village with gas masks and start searching for Farah and Alex right away.

Captain Price: Farah! *helps Farah walk*

Kyle: Alex! You're alright, you're alright. *helps Alex walk*

Farah: Where is he? Where is he?!

Alex: He's gone, Farah.

Farah: No. Hadir! HADIR!

Captain Price: Farah! Stop! Stop, Farah! Stop!

Farah: (Dari) YOU DIRTY FUCKING TERRORIST DOG! WHERE ARE YOU?! *coughs* (English) It was Hadir. Hadir was the thief. I'm sorry, Captain. I didn't know. I didn't know.

Captain Price: There's no way you could've known.

Alex: It's okay, Farah. We'll get him.

Captain Price: We need to un-arse this target! Now!
