Operation Golden Trail
Scene 1: Mission Briefing
Major Hamza's office, ISI Headquarters.
Major Hamza: "Gentlemen, we have intel on an Indian spy embedded in KPK. He's posing as a gold merchant and has established connections in the region. Our intel is sparse, but he's rumored to be collecting information on our military operations. Zayan, Ubaid, this one's for you."
Zayan: nodding "Do we know his exact location, sir?"
Major Hamza: "Not exactly. He's kept his movements quiet, but we know he frequents the gold market and has a private residence on the outskirts. You'll have to go in blind and find him using whatever means necessary."
Ubaid: "Understood. We'll start with the market and get a feel for who he's meeting and his operations."
Major Hamza: "Good. Stay low-profile, gather intel first. Only engage if absolutely necessary. This spy has slipped through our net before—don't let him do it again. Good luck."

Scene 2: Infiltrating the Gold Bazaar
Zayan and Ubaid walk through the bustling bazaar, keeping their eyes on the crowds around them.
Ubaid: whispering "The crowd here is thick. Hard to keep track of anyone without drawing attention."
Zayan: "Look for anyone who seems… overly guarded. Someone in a new role, not entirely at ease in the environment."
The two scan each shop, watching the interactions between the merchants and customers. After a few minutes, Ubaid spots a man with two bodyguards, positioned near a prominent gold shop.
Ubaid: pointing subtly "Zayan, eleven o'clock. Dark suit, two guards close by. Doesn't match the typical merchant vibe."
Zayan: "You're right. That could be our guy. Let's follow but keep it light."

Scene 3: Surveillance and Intel Gathering
Zayan and Ubaid discreetly shadow the man, noting every movement and person he meets. The merchant, with a faint scar on his cheek, finally heads out of the bazaar and towards a secluded area of the city.
Zayan: "He's headed out. We need to find his safe house."
Ubaid: grinning "I've already got a lead on that. He's rumored to have a place not too far from here. Let's tail him from a safe distance."
The two agents follow the man, keeping enough distance to avoid detection. Eventually, they see him enter a small, well-guarded house.

Scene 4: Planning the Approach
Zayan and Ubaid wait until nightfall, observing the house's layout and the number of guards.
Ubaid: "Two at the front, one patrolling the back. Might be more inside."
Zayan: checking his gear "We'll need to be quick and quiet. First, let's disable that patrol at the back. I'll take out the front guards. Then we'll go in and secure the spy before he has time to destroy any evidence."
Ubaid: nodding "On your lead, Zayan."

Scene 5: Infiltration and Confrontation
Zayan and Ubaid silently move toward the house, taking down the patrolling guard with swift, silent moves. Zayan then sneaks to the front and disables the two guards stationed at the entrance.
They quietly enter the house and move towards a room where they can hear muffled voices. Inside, the merchant is seated at a desk, typing on a laptop, flanked by two armed guards.
Zayan: whispering to Ubaid "On three…"
They rush in, and Zayan fires his silenced weapon, taking down the two guards. The merchant tries to slam his laptop shut and reach for a hidden gun, but Zayan quickly steps in and grabs him by the collar.
Merchant: struggling "Who are you? You can't do this! I am a respected businessman!"
Ubaid: smirking "Save the act. We know you're an Indian spy."
Zayan: "You've been collecting intel for weeks, haven't you? You think we'd just let that slide?"
Merchant: defiant "I don't know what you're talking about."
Zayan motions to Ubaid to search the desk and drawers. Ubaid pulls out documents stamped with Indian insignias and a small radio transmitter.
Ubaid: "Looks like we've got some damning evidence here. Trying to get messages back to India, were you?"
Merchant: sighing in defeat "You… you have no idea the forces you're up against."
Zayan: "We're not concerned. Now, you're coming with us."

Scene 6: Extraction and Escape
As they prepare to exit, backup guards outside realize something's wrong and start firing at Zayan and Ubaid.
Ubaid: grunting "They've got us pinned down, Zayan!"
Zayan: "We stick to the plan. Cover me while I get us an escape route!"
Zayan returns fire, neutralizing two more guards. Ubaid signals for extraction, relaying their position.
Ubaid: "Extraction team is en route, five minutes out. Can you hold?"
Zayan: gritting his teeth "We'll hold."
As more guards rush in, Ubaid takes a hit on his arm but keeps firing. Zayan manages to secure the merchant, holding him as a shield to stop the guards from advancing.
Zayan: to Ubaid "Stay low. We're almost through this."
The extraction team arrives, with reinforcements providing covering fire. Zayan and Ubaid, injured but determined, drag the merchant into the waiting vehicle.
Ubaid: clutching his arm "Well, that was one for the books."
Zayan: "Just another day on the job."

Scene 7: Debriefing
Back at headquarters, Major Hamza meets them, inspecting the captured evidence and nodding in approval.
Major Hamza: "Good work, gentlemen. With this evidence, we can prevent future breaches along the border. This spy will be valuable in gathering intel from the other side."
Ubaid: grinning despite his injury "All in a day's work, sir."
Zayan: "Mission accomplished."
Major Hamza: "Get some rest. I have a feeling there's more coming."
