The young soldier takes a deep breath, knowing that he's in a very bad spot just now. He could probably take down this woman with no trouble, but he'd hit Daryaei. If Daryaei died, it would turn this whole thing into a fiasco and the Pentagon would have a field day with it.
The United States didn't negotiate with terrorists and he didn't have any bargaining power, but he had to do something before this woman killed their link to the leader of the terrorist organization his team is hunting.
The sound of the guns behind him doesn't faze him much, but he has to play this correctly or at least two people were going to die in the next few minutes.
He clicks his rifle's safety to 'on' and lowers it slightly.
"I'm not authorized to bargain with terrorists. Who are you and what do you want?" he asks, stalling for time until his people can show up.
