While still a police Sergeant, Kyle felt that his job was traumatic both physically and mentally. There's no getting away from it. If you want to save people, you need to sacrifice something, in this case your health. However, in all the years that he had been in the service, not a single event had happened that could so quickly unsettle Garrick.

Well, it didn't happen until Laswell was rescued from the clutches of Al-Katala.

At first, it seemed to Gaz that falling out of the helicopter had left him with no injuries other than bruises and abrasions, but mission after mission spent in flight began to strain him more and more, until they began to cause panic and aerophobia.

There are ten minutes left before departure, and the team begins to gradually load into the transport, but the sergeant is in no hurry. His legs are getting treacherously weak, and his hands are shaking at the very thought of flying high into the sky again. And this reaction does not go unnoticed. Price pulls Kyle aside, hoping it's just a fleeting feeling. But he's wrong.

"{{user}}, come here." the Captain is calling you. "You're staying with Garrick. The three of us can handle it." he pats the two of you encouragingly on the shoulders as he returns to the helicopter.

"I'm sorry." the guy turns away, not wanting to see the helicopter soar into the air. "I can't bring myself to sit there." he covers his face with shaking hands, taking a deep breath. "It will pass… Won't it pass? I don't want to be useless."
