Belem Operations in Kecha
The Shadow Inquisition has been authorized to restart operations in Kecha in order to change the government to a more desirable system.
10 Inquisitors are on there way to Kechas capitol to meet a contact at the airport and begin operations.
Is this supposed to be public knowledge?
no. i should put private rp in the title.
hmmm it says 3 replies but theres only 2 replies...wierd..
IC: A contact of Mr. Cestero awaits in the Airport.
The captain of the group approaches the contact and hands him a contact card "your the guy from corporate right?"
IC: "That'd be me" the man said "You the folks we sent for?" he took the card and looked it over "Guess you are"
IC: "This way gentlemen, Mr. Sordu is waiting, and he is an impatient man"
The group follows the contact
IC: their travels take them to the top of an Apartment Building, a penthouse to be exact, outside the door the contact stops and turns to the Belemians "Try and keep things slow gentlement, Mr. Sordu is somewhat old"
"of course" captain santini heads into the office.
IC: Indeed, Mr. Sordu looks old, he is sitting in a wheelchair, he is bald, and wears glasses "Good afternoon" he said quietly "You are the operatives from Belem we sent for?"
"yes we are. Im captain santini."
IC: "And I sir, am John sordu, otherwise known as Major John Sordu, of the Militia, I've been on Inactive Duty Status due to age, and a blind left eye, for a few years now, how many are there with you Captain?"
"what intel do you have for us?"
IC: "We can tell you of a select few Armed Forces people who will side with us now if you need help maeuvering in the system"
"that will help. do you have any intel on regular politicians? We will need intel on anyone who is on the fringe and can be easilly convinced to join our side and intel on party hardliners who will have to be removed."
IC: "If you want fringe supporters, look for those who's families held power when Kecha was a young Republic, not many of them around mind you, but they won't be expected after literally ages have passed since the Republic Government collapsed"
"hmm..ok. anything you want us to do first?"
IC: "We need to make contact with a Colonel Brooke Pierce, she is Commanding Officer of some of those JOAP MKI Supertanks, and she might be willing to side with us, such weapons could help us a good deal"
"how much is the generals salary and what position will the general be granted after our success in the operation?"
IC: "She is a Colonel, she hasn't been contacted yet, so we've made no promises, we were considering offering her the rank of General, and a post in the new High Command after our coup succeeds, her pay I could tell you after some paper shuffling"
"We will make a generous cash offering. How much should we tell her about your goals and organization? and should we eliminate her if she refuses?"
IC: "Tell her we seek to improve and stabilize the Government, by bringing in a bit of Holy Guidance, something to that strain, if she refuses, kill her, and make it look like a professional execution, leaving her body to be found and all"
"Understood. Is that all?"
IC: "For now, yes it is, she lived in the Capital" he handed her address to the Belemian.
"Thank you." Captain Santini heads out of the office to join with his men.
---------------------
8 of the agents begin searching online sources for records concering whos in power now who was related to politicians in the republican days.
Santini and anothe Inquisitor head to the Colonels house at about 7 P.M. to check security around the perimeter.
OOC: Must go now, sorry, be back later.
IC: The agents find one name they didn't expect on the list of families who held power in the Republic, the name: DeRodney, the family name of General Aubrey DeRodney, Chief of the Strategic Command.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No visible security is around Colonel Pierce's home.
Santini and the other Inquisitor get out of the car and ring brookes bell.
IC: After a good minute, the door opens up, revealing a giant of a woman, with Blonde hair, Blue eyes, and dressed in casual clothes "Yeah?" she asked simply "Can I help you?"
"Colonel Pierce I presume? We represent a grassroots political organization can we have a moment of your time?"
IC: "I'm Colonel Pierce, and yeah, c'mon in" Pierce let her unexpected visitors in, closing the door after they came inside "So, what can I do for you folks?" meanwhile, she thought to herself 'This isn't good, political organizations seeking Military aid never is'
"We represent a group that wants to help stablize the government by improving the way it operates by letting more people have a say."
IC: 'Oh Lord' Pierce thought "How do you propose to do that?"
"By bringing back part of the republic and adding more faith to the world. what do u think?"
IC: "I think I haven't heard enough, no National Guard Colonel does anything on such little information"
Santini pulls up his briefcase and opens it exposing over 60 grand in kechan currency "we assure you it would be worth your while"
IC: Pierce looked at the crisp Tyras in the case before her "Holy $*@$" she muttered to herself "Before we do any deal making, what do you folks want exactly?"
"We just want your support. You will be contacted when we need your assistance."
IC: "Armed support, you want my Supertanks?"
"Possibly. possibly not. But we can assure you any support you give will be well compenstated...perhaps we can arrange an extra payment once the government is in ordre General"
IC: "Yeah, 'possibly' there's also a 'possibility' that I just might be a woman, possibility my @$$, you're making the works for armed rebellion, and you want a little bit of good ol' artilllery to do it with" she stopped for a moment "Yeah, I'll work with you, provided that promotion to General is a gauranteed thing"
"I can assure you, you will be promoted to general."
IC: "Good man" she said "When do you want it?" she asked.
"We will contact you." The Captain hands the Colonel the briefcase full of cash.
IC: "Yeah, I guess you will" Pierce said, then she showed the Belemians to the door, and saw them off, after they left she rushed to a phone in her kitchen, she dialed in a number "Hello, Chief of the Watch? this is Colonel Pierce, is Captain Smith there? good, I need to speak to her..."
OOC: Must go.
The captain and the Inquisitor head back to the safe house
-----------
The other Inquisitors continue searching for links to members of the old republic government.
IC: the Inquisitors find only one more name: DeLandry.
Over the next day 4 of the Inquisitors remotely hack low level politicians computers for dirt they use satillite connections so they cant be tracked.
------------------
Santini and another Inquisitor heads to DeLandrys house.
IC: The only person with the last name DeLandry is a man named George DeLandry, he is a Sergeant in the Militia, and for a civilian job he works on cars privatley, he lives on the northern edge of the Capital in a small, brick home.
Inquisitors drive there and ring his bell.
IC: It was dark outside when the Inquositor's reached the DeLandry residence, the door was answered by a man in a Militia uniform "Yeah?" he said.
Elsewhere: The lot was full of the first 50 of the group of 250 JOAP MKI Supertanks, they looked like they were in a normal inspection, except for the extra checks being run, and the engines roaring to life, belching smoke for the first seconds untill settling into their running processes.
"Hi. Mr. Delandry we are representives for a grass routes political organization that wants to bring power back to the people. Our records say your family was heavily involved in republic politics can we have a moment of your time?"
IC: "Sure, come in" George said, ushering them inside.
Elsewhere: The Supertanks were warming up, being checked in groups of 50.
The Inquisitors follow him in.
IC: George closed the door behind them, and turned around "So, what can I do for you guys?"
"We are looking to bring back the days of the old republic government and we are looking for supporters through political activism. We are esspically looking for people whos families were part of the old government."
IC: "An old ancestor of mine was a major member of the Armed Forces, to give you a clue of how long the Republic's been gone, it was before the MED Supervirus hit"
"Thats why it has been so hard to find members of the old government. If you are interested in supporting the cause you will of course be put on our organizations payroll."
IC: "You realize the current Imperial Government wouldn't allow a rise of the Old Republic right?"
"Even if we don't have a full return to a republic government we are hoping to negioate democratically elected officials and some power in lawmaking."
IC: "Like I said, they won't agree to an sort of change you propose, from how you describe your group, you're fringe people"
"We just see the government the way it is. The government is losing power and they are trying to maintain the facade of all powerful. Look at the last terrorist attacks, massive destruction to the city with attacks going on for weeks. Even after the cell was destroyed the ringleaders were never captured. We are trying to bring a stop to that and return to stability to Kecha."
IC: "Like I say to everyone who demands reform, the Government won't give up any power willingly"
"Well we can be very perssuasive if neccesary." The Captain takes out 10 grand of currency and hands it to Delandry "An advance on your pay if you choose to help us"
IC: "I doubt you can really persuade them to change their minds about what they're going to eat tonight, but I'll help you"
"thanks. We will contact you when we need your help."
IC: "Sure"
Elsewhere: Colonel Pierce walked in between two of the massive Supertanks, examining various aspects and such, trying to figure out exactly what, if anything was wrong.
"Thanks again sir. Have a good night." The Inquisitors get up to leave.
IC: DeLandry showed them out, he sat and thought on the events he'd just been through for a little while, then went to bed for the night.
OOC: did my hackers get any dirt on the politicians?
IC: Santini goes to see the boss.
OOC: They found out that the Empress is planning somesort of movement project, they also found out that the current Deputy Chief of the Kechan National Police Department has accepted bribes in the past, I'll need to log off soon.
OOC: k.
IC: santini goes to see sordu.
IC: Upon entering the same building and room as the last time, Santini finds Sordu reading a book, he looks up "So, any news?"
"We got both the colonel and a descendent from the republic. We are going after the police chief tommorow. What do you reccomend for phase 2 ops?"
