When I came across this pic I saved it because of the location/background. I liked the empty/vastness of the region they were driving in.
But I wasn’t sure what the idea was or how I would use this.
Until now.
The last two Creativity Posts (57,58) have had the CIA villa as a link to them and that’s how I got the idea.
We had the two snipers from Creativity Post 58 who were heading out to do something. While it was never said what they doing, everyone assumed they were heading out to kill some of the terrorists operating in the region.
But what if they weren’t.
What if they were going to kill the guys in this pic?
So, then the question is, who are these guys?
The easy answer would be to call them rogue military units the U.S. trained and now needs to eliminate.
I like the idea but what if we went one step further. What if they’re a merc firm? Maybe they’re training terrorists or have gone rogue with the military units they’ve been training. Maybe we don’t know what they’ve done.
What if they’re a British firm and the United States is sending a secret kill-team to eliminate them.
The fallout from such actions could be huge and could have all kinds of ripple effects.
Which would make for a great story. ?
