The hum of the war room in Delhi was almost deafening, a cacophony of voices and beeping monitors, the atmosphere thick with anxiety. Pathan stood in the center of the chaos, his eyes locked on the screen displaying the latest intelligence reports. The images were grim: troop movements along the India-Pakistan border, fighter jets on standby, and a dark cloud of uncertainty hanging over the entire region.

The situation was deteriorating faster than anyone had anticipated. What had started as a hunt for a rogue agent had spiraled into a geopolitical nightmare. Tensions between India and Pakistan, always fragile, were now at a breaking point. And in the midst of it all, a single man held the key to either igniting or defusing the coming storm.

Tiger.

Pathan knew that time was running out. The fate of millions rested on the decisions made in the next few hours, and the weight of that responsibility pressed down on him like never before. The stakes had never been higher, and the consequences of failure were unthinkable.

"Pathan," a voice cut through the noise, pulling him from his thoughts.

He turned to see Zoya entering the room, her expression as grim as the news she carried. She had been working tirelessly, piecing together the fragments of information they had uncovered. But even with everything they had learned, the full picture remained elusive.

"We need to talk," Zoya said, her voice low. "It's about General Rashid."

Pathan nodded, gesturing for her to follow him to a quieter corner of the room. The name alone was enough to send a chill down his spine. General Rashid had always been a wild card-a hawkish military leader with a penchant for aggressive posturing. But what he was about to hear would change everything.

As they stepped away from the crowded war room, Zoya handed Pathan a tablet, the screen displaying a classified report. Pathan scanned the contents, his expression darkening with each word.

"Rashid has made his move," Zoya explained, her tone urgent. "He's overthrown Prime Minister Sharif in a coup. The military has taken control of Islamabad, and Rashid is now in command."

Pathan felt his heart sink. A military coup was the worst possible outcome. With Rashid at the helm, the situation would only escalate. The man was known for his hardline stance against India, and with him in power, the threat of war was more real than ever.

"What's the latest from the border?" Pathan asked, his voice tight with tension.

Zoya sighed, swiping through the report to pull up the latest satellite images. "It's not good. Rashid has mobilized troops to the Line of Control, and there are unconfirmed reports that nuclear assets are being prepared. If this continues, we're looking at the very real possibility of a nuclear confrontation."

Pathan's mind raced, the implications of Zoya's words sinking in. Rashid's actions were pushing the region towards the brink of disaster. And the worst part was, there was no clear way to stop it. The diplomatic channels had broken down, and both sides were entrenched in their positions.

But even as the situation seemed hopeless, Pathan knew there was one last chance-one man who could change the course of history.

Tiger.

The news of Rashid's coup had sent shockwaves through both India and Pakistan. For years, Prime Minister Sharif had been a stabilizing force, a leader who had managed to navigate the treacherous waters of South Asian politics with a delicate balance of diplomacy and pragmatism. But Rashid was a different breed entirely-a military man with a vision of power that was as ruthless as it was uncompromising.
