The Leafanistani Ministry of Justice hearby issues an arrest warrant for all members of Global Jihad and especially Omar Al Zarqawi leader of Global Jihad.

He is linked with the nuclear holocaust that ended the Saharistan War that killed 25 million+ civilians and has just been implicated in the assassination of the entire National Socialist Party of Rovonia and the slaughter of 18.4 million+ civlians in the capital of Rovonia.

Current intelligence indicates he is heading for El Caudillo however he may run instead to Ottoman Kaif. If you have any information to their whereabouts contact any member of the Saharistan War Coalition (McKagan, Halberdgardia, Tannenmille, and Leafanistan specifically) to warn us.

A reward of 985 million USD has been offered for the capture of Omar Al Zarqawi, and a lesser reward of 1 million USD for any Global Jihad member.

A Sierra Force team on the deck of an amphibious assault ship prepare for a mission against the heart of the terrorist cell they've been fighting for the last few months.

"Ok boys, ok. Weapons hot, stay on the sides, we're going in low and fast with 1 airship for cover." the team commander said as the Blackhawk and Adams Class helicopters lifted off and flew into a Rovonian river valley.

"On those door guns!" he yelled as he prepared his CX-3 rifle.

After a few moments of this the troops jumped out of the helicopter and set up a roadblock on the border, steathly and anxiously waiting for any car to come towards the border.

Yes...what was that whole Saharistan business about, and does Global Jihad exist as an organization?

Yes...what was that whole Saharistan business about, and does Global Jihad exist as an organization?

OOC: Yes Omar controls it on behalf of his brother and used it to carry out terrorist attacks in Saharistan and was planning a nuclear one in Halberdgardia and Leafanistan. The NSwiki has an article on it: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Saharistan_War

SkyHawk jumpjets taking off from the escort carriers in the Leafanistani Fleet flew toward the border roaring at nearly Mach 2, MiG-25G Seabats took off from a supercarrier and flew at Mach 3 to quickly set up patrols across Rovonia. BlackHawk helicoptors left the frigates loaded with High Guardsmen/women to set up border patrols. In the port that Leafanistan annexed, APCs began to move throughout the city.

Are we going to use this thread or the other thread?

Can someone capture him already!!!

Can someone capture him already!!!

OOC: I'll let McKagan handle this one, its up to him whether I cryo him or he goes to a McKagan prison.

Leafanistani MiG

McKagan special forces we have located large convoy moving at high speeds in excess of 120 kph moving outbound on a large roadway toward El Caudillo. Satellite says you are within 12 kilometers. Investigate please, over.

OOC: Does EC know y'all are RP having this large convoy heading towards him? One more thing, what part of El Caudillo is this large convoy heading towards? Because some of El Caudillo is next to the Dominion. Meaning if this large convoy is in my territories (Albania, Austria, Belarus, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republi, Estonia, Georgia [the country, not the state], Hungary, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Macedonia, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Serbia & Montenegro, Slovakia, Slovenia, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, and Western Russia [Adygeya, Arkhangelsk, Astrakhan, Bashkortostan, Belgorod, Bryansk, Chechnya, Chuvashia , Dagestan, Ingushetia, Ivanovo, Kaliningrad, Kaluga, Karachay-Cherkessia, Karelia, Kirov, Komi, Kostroma, Krasnodar, Kursk, Leningrad, Lipetsk, Mari El, Mordovia, Moscow (Province), Moscow (Federal city), Murmansk, Nenetsia, Nizhny Novgorod, Novgorod, North Ossetia, Orenburg, Oryol, Penza, Perm, Permyakia, Pskov, Rostov, Samara, Saratov, Smolensk, Stavropol, St. Petersburg (Federal city), Sverdlovsk, Tambov, Tatarstan, Tula, Tver, Udmurtia, Ulyanovsk, Yaroslavl, Vladimir, Volgograd, Vologda, Voronezh]), I will shot to kill and that means everything. The terrorists and the team hunting them.

OOC: We've been told Rovonia borders El Caudillo and that he is heading there but is still pretty far away.

OOC: Never hear of that. That is something new to me. Did Rovonia and El Caudillo tell you this? Or was it only Rovonia, who told you this?

The ATTN nations are what Rovonia told me border him. Of course I trust Rovonia as much as I'd trust a piece of paper with a particulury red rash.

Ask EC and OK then before y'all get any more in the RP.

OOC: Currently McKagan stands on the border waiting to intercept anyone who comes near. Leafanistani Troops also patrol the border, however no soverignty will be violated. He will be brougth to justice before he gets close enough.

Near the Rovonian/El Caudillan border

GLOBAL JIHAD AGENT "Sir, we have spotted a Leafanistani patrol further along our path to freedom, what do you want us to do?"

OMAR AL ZARQAWI "I suppose by now you have heard of the Islamic Jihadist Revolution in the Islamic nation of (-----------)? That nation is now under Allah's blessing and is supportive of our goals for Global Jihad. The SWC nations will catch me sooner or later, so I will give myself up in order for the SWC to be lulled into a false sense of security, they will think that Global Jihad is finished, with me in their hands. I instruct you to tell all sleeper cells around the globe to go the Islamic nation of (----------), from there Global Jihad will have a new leadership and new allies and training, this is a question of survival for our group. I am too wanted and well known to be a part of the future of Global Jihad, I must scarifice myself to the SWC while you help Global Jihad prepare for our great future with our new friends in
(-----------)."

GJ AGENT "Right away, Ill send out the encrypted messages with your orders"

Zarqawi's jeep nears a McKagan patrol.

Zarqawi shoots all of those in his jeep and sets it on fire, destroying his laptop and all his papers, save his old Saharistani passport.

He then holds a white flag and puts his hands into the air and walks towards the McKagan troops awaiting arrest.

OOC: First of all....I don't know who is this "Omar Al Zarqawi" and there is no "Global Jihad group" in my nation. I was not inform about this and if anyone cross with arm forces into my lands and shoot up my people without my permission, I will personal nuke your nation back to the stone age. And last I am not part of this rp and nor want to be...so just leave out of this rp..I do not have the time to rp this rp at the moment...so just leave me alone.

Don't worry Ottoman, I just said you and EC were next to me our of lack of imagination.

Omar al Zarqawi has now surrendered so there is no point for any nation to go near yours now, they are about to capture who they want.

Well is someone going to arrest omar or what!

After throwing Omar on the ground, cuffing him, and making sure he didn't have any explosives or drugs on him (this included a dental check,) Omar is loaded into a Blackhawk helicopter to be transported back to the battlecruiser out in the ocean.

"Sir, we've got him." a soldier reported back to the officer who was in command of this operation.

"Ok, call in the transport and the Adams, we're getting back to the ship." the Major in command of the extraction said.

"Ok boys, into the helo, now!" a Leiutenant holding the rear of the formation yelled as he walked behind his troops.

Both Omar and 38 troops (counting the Sierra Force party i originally send), along with 1 support helicopter, are on their way back to RMS Slither.

Re: Capture of Omar al Zarqawi

Congratulations to you and your men on the capture of Omar al Zarqawi. Global Jihad may not be defunct yet, but they'll be hurting with the loss of their leader.

I am wondering, however, what you plan to do with him. The HCIA happens to have some great interest in interrogating him before he's handed over for cryo-freezing. Perhaps we could arrange something before his imprisonment? Again, congratulations.

Re: Capture of Omar al Zarqawi

Thank you,

We are going to interrogate him as well. If your intelligence officials would like, they'd be welcome aboard here on Slither, alternativly we can head to a friendly port in either your homeland or Saharistan to meet with your officials.

We plan to keep him here for several days while he is interrogated, processed, and orientated with prison life. Then he'll be shipped into orbit by one of our Sultan Class Scouts and headed to an undisclosed prison camp in space occupied by the Republican Starfleet (RS).

Once there he will be allowed to talk to different representation officials at his will, we'll provide the transport to the location to anyone who would normally not be able to make it into space.

We do not yet know if our legal officials will want to freeze him, or if we'll be the only nation prosecuting him. If any other of the SWC nations feel the need to press charges not covered by what we are putting up we'll provide transportation up for them. Futher infomation forthcoming.

Re: OaZ

We'll be sending over a detachment of HCIA agents to rendezvous with Slither for interrogation of the suspect, if you don't mind. We'll try to glean as much information as we can out of him. Recommend he be handed over to Leafanistan for cryo-freezing post-interrogation. I'm sure OaZ will enjpy being frozen next to his brother.

OOC: I'm EST and up later then you! :p

I didn't just say IC i didn't know what we were going to do with him, I really don't know. I'll come up with something. Anyway, 'night.

On most major news stations across the globe, the main topic of discussion was the recent arrest of Omar al Zarqawi and the Global Jihad. However, another bombshell struck the news networks when the traditionally reclusive and isolationistic nation of Clownshoesia released a statement to the world press. As news coming from Clownshoesia is few and far between, normally limited to statesments made within the U.N., this was considered fairly important. The press release read as follows.

"From the desk of Foreman Porkins, current Foreman of Clownshoesia.
In the name of Clownshoes the First, Master of Clownshoesia.

We, the Government charged with operations of Clownshoesia in His name, feel that we should inform the world on our current policy on global terrorism. While the Nation and the Board of Directors, as a whole, feel that the global terrorist networks are not our problem, I would like to state on record that any and all terrorist activities inside our borders will not be tolerated.

Terroristic activities violates our current bans on foreign travel and unauthorized visitation inside our country. As it has already been stated, travel inside and outside of Clownshoesia is strictly forbidden and illegal unless proper visas have been issued. The penalty for such a violation is execution.

Noting that terroristic activities, by their nature, go against governmental functions, this also violates our current ban against non-government sponsored activities and illegal meetings intended to rebel against the government. The penalty for this violation is also elimination.

In closing, I will summarize what I just stated. We will not go out of our way to hunt down terrorist groups outside of our borders, but if any terrorists, rebels, or other anti-government factions or faction members find themselves inside Clownshoesian borders, they will be captured and sent off for "processing" at one of our bio-reclamation facilities.

Thank you for your time."

(Biochopshop)

And send us an itemized list and you'll recieve your reward for each terrorist that is taken off this planet.

McKagan: Congratulations on the capture, if you wish to turn him in there is a 985 million dollar reward on his head if you give him to us, after you all are finished with him. The spooks here at ONI want to try some new toys on him.

-Minister of Justice

At this point we do not know if we will give him over to you or fly him off world to our new prison complex. We just built a new prison system that lacks a high profile detainee. If you have intelligence officers who would like to be with the captive you should send them via helicopter or other vessel to RMV Slither.

If there are charges the Leafanistan Judicial System would like to press that are not covered in our document you can have a law team sent to the complex at a later date. For now he's staying aboard Slither, which is at this point one of the most secure locations in the world, for orientation and processing.

And...now! Two of our subs just surfaced next to the Slither. Expect our "spooks" to arrive on board a Frigate, the fleet is moving at cruise toward your position. Estimated Time of Arrival is 47 minutes from now. They will helo down to you form a South Sea class Frigate.

RMV Axl Rose, Weiland-class sub, is in the area. While it is a powerful fighting machine it's primarily been redesigned for intelligence. Thus, it's off placing and retreving wire taps.

Our deck security team has been increased from 25 to 37 men/women, and we're keeping an Adams Class attack helicopter in the air at all times.

We ask that you try not to get our fleet here into a tight formation incase we need to break it at any point, and we request that you keep air transport to a minimum.

To support fleet security 4 Advanced Tactical Frigates (ATF's) are headed for the region.

RMV Slither, Bridge

"Sir, we've got an incoming. It's those HCIA agents who want to work in our interrogation of O A Z." the Ensign manning the radar unit on the bridge shouted to the Commanding Officer.

"Clear them for landing." he repeated.

"Slither to Delta Five, you are clear for landing on upper helo pad. I say again, clear for landing on upper pad." the fresh communications officer who had just came on bridge under an half hour earlier said in a clear voice into the radio input.

"Get Squad A of the ship defense team down there and escort them to the conference room."

The Executive Officer walked to the rear of the bridge and got on another radio unit and within 2 minutes 6 soldiers in grey cammo walked up the ramp to the raised helo support unit.

Thank you, I'll be sending my Lt, the ONI "spooks" and 5 guards.

-Leafanistani 5th Fleet

Five soldiers in gray/black cammo with black helmets and CX-3 rifles walked to the rear of the ship. A helicopter was preparing to fly close air support for the fleet and it lifted off. The two most inexperienced soldiers tried not to let the loud sound of the supercharged engines on the Adams bother them, but the team commander noted that it obviously did.

As they got to the end of the helicopter runway/landing zone one broke from the formation and went futher towards the rear of the ship. One soldier got on the foward-most part of the gate that would open and kneeled to 1 knee as he looked through his optical sight to make sure there wasn't anyone in the water or out to sea, even though the ships radars would have picked up it long before now.

The final two soldiers walked in and opened small areas on boths ides of a stretch of wall and hit switches to allow the gate to be removed. It was moved towards the rear of the ship. Then they went back and let down the singer sheet of metal that formed a bridge down to the edge of the water. After a few moments handrails had been put in place.

Slither was prepared to recieve the delegation.

The imposing Flagship of the 5th Fleet, the battleship HFS Siege Machine moved against the Slither. A hatch opened on the side and a small walkway descended. A guard carrying 2 MP7s moved forward, followed by the delegation along with many more guards.

"Right this way." a soldier in his urban warfare suit called out as he turned and walked back towards a hatch that was guarded by two of the deck security personnel.

He led the men into the hatch, down a hallway, and up a set of stairs.

Inside the conference room the Captain and his Executive Officer were seated.

"Good day," the captain spoke "so you want to discuss our captive?"

Aboard RMV Slither, 1305 Local Time

Agent Rockwell stepped out of the SeaHawk. He had only a .50AE Desert Eagle pistol as a sidearm, but the two other agents were armed with MP5KA4s. He nodded to the nearest McKagan man, and then they were on their way to al Zarqawi's cell.

"Earlier he was a little bitchy to one of our security ops people, we had to give him a drug to knock him out," started one of the soldiers. "He'll be coming to now, but before we go below deck I'm just informing you that your helo will be taken into a hanger for refueling and storage incase a storm blows in while we're out here, as they've been known to do," he finished.

"Now, it would appear the other squad took the Leafanistan folks to the conference room. You have your choice of going there to see where we all stand, or straight to interrogation. After everyone has had a go at him and we have what we want we'll all meet back at the conference room for a discussion of his future and maybe dinner. So, where do you want to go?"

"If you don't mind, I'd like to meet with the Leafanistan agents. After all, they are our allies, and we ought to coordinate as much as possible. No reason in keeping secrets from each other, right?"

"That is true. It seems our own chain of command had a slip up, each squad got issued different orders." the soldier proclaimed.

"In either case we've got to get inside the hull before we start getting bitched at by the guys in intel about giving our signature away or some shit."

The soldier walked across the now quite deck and opened an inward slanted hatch and stepped in while his other soldiers stayed behind on the outside and went back to their concealed firing positions that were designed to allow for on deck security with minimal radar signature giveaway.

"The corridors on this ship aren't as small as on some," he said while ducking to keep from being knocked out by a low pipe that had came unsecured from a metal bracket. "Nevermind that, the conference room is just up these stairs, follow me."

"That is true. It seems our own chain of command had a slip up, each squad got issued different orders." the soldier proclaimed.

Rockwell followed the McKagan man into the depths of the ship, regarding the low ceilings warily, and taking care not to hit his head on that pipe.

"See, the big thing about this class of ship is that they're designed to be stealthy. And you can't be stealthy without giving up the ability to stick 50 cals on the side of everything with soldiers and ammo crated behind them. We came up with a way to solve that. We have bunkers that are made of a stealthy material on the deck that our soldiers spend their day in, but they look like part of the ship on a radar, and since the ship is basically invisable on radar....well, you get the point. Your helo is probably on the lower level of the hanger, that entier pad you landed on is an elevator that drops down to a hanger, not to mention drive on equipment bays. But that's enough about the technical specs of our ships," the Officer said while turning back around and just about knocking his head off on another pipe.

"Damnit!, I mean, inside that door you'll find the CO, XO, and the Leafanistan people," he said while walking past the door and standing semi- at attention.

The Leafanistani agents looked up. "Ah..the Halberdgardian delegation, so happy to meet you. And the McKagan people have been briefing me on how our friend is doing. We wish to interrogate him first, the ONI spooks have some sodium penthanol and a big burly guy to scare information out of him. You'd be surprised how much you can acomplish by just staring at someone. And the truth serum, he gets too relaxed to argue, we'll slip it into his water and he'll be high as a kite and too distracted to lie." The ONI spook chuckled to himself.

"Ok, we're all going in at one time though. We've already done our job on him, so we'll just sit back and watch, or, more like my Leiutenant, and see what you can do. You can do whatever you want as long as you do not directly put his life in danger or threaten brain damage or any other major injury." the CO spoke out.

"Be warned though, he has lashed out at our security earlier today. If you provoke him, or not, and our security have to put a dart in him it's going to make your stay here about 4 hours longer."

"Follow me" a Leiutenant who walked into the room said as he walked out a door and down a staircase.

Rockwell smiled and offered his hand. "I've heard much about the ONI. I understand that your agents are quite good at what they do. It's a pleasure to be working with you.

"As for the prisoner," Rockwell said, looking at the McKagan men, then back at the ONI spooks, "have we gotten any information out of him?"

"Follow me" a Leiutenant who walked into the room said as he walked out a door and down a staircase.

"Trust me, Lieutenant," Rockwell said as he followed the McKagan men and ONI spooks down to al Zarqawi's cell, "we've gotten good at torture that doesn't have long-term effects on the subject, as our laws allow for some forms of torture to extract information from particularly...recalcitrant captives. We've had practice on criminals back home."

Rockwell smiled and offered his hand. "I've heard much about the ONI. I understand that your agents are quite good at what they do. It's a pleasure to be working with you.

"As for the prisoner," Rockwell said, looking at the McKagan men, then back at the ONI spooks, "have we gotten any information out of him?"

"Nothing that will help you," the Leiutenant began. "We learned the name of a man in McKagan who was going to sell their cell in McKagan weapons and set up an ammunition dump. RMPF picked him up this morning." he said as he continued down a corridor and then a staircase.

"We've not been able to get much. Each time we've started to interrogate him he's gotten bitchy and our security folks have darted him."

"Trust me, Lieutenant," Rockwell said as he followed the McKagan men and ONI spooks down to al Zarqawi's cell, "we've gotten good at torture that doesn't have long-term effects on the subject, as our laws allow for some forms of torture to extract information from particularly...recalcitrant captives. We've had practice on criminals back home."

"That's the best thing the politicians ever did for our intelligence and police community. A few years back they combined our police departments and Central Intelligence Agency into a single unit. Republic of McKagan's Police Force, or, for short, RMPF. Of course, when we started pulling alot more people off the streets some people called it fascism. We later learned efficency had been boosted to 98% in the homeland and 89% in other nations."

"Nothing that will help you," the Leiutenant began. "We learned the name of a man in McKagan who was going to sell their cell in McKagan weapons and set up an ammunition dump. RMPF picked him up this morning." he said as he continued down a corridor and then a staircase.

"We've not been able to get much. Each time we've started to interrogate him he's gotten bitchy and our security folks have darted him."

"He say anything in particular when he gets angry? I'm trying to get an idea of his mood, what he's thinking. I want to go in to this interrogation as well-armed as possible. Figuratively speaking, of course."

"When he get's angry we have a few minutes before he gets to the point of needing to be darted. He seems to admit to stuff that he usually wouldn't. It's like he's not even thinking when he's like that. Ask him about his 'plans' too, especially once he's mad."

The Leiutenant turned a corner, and then another in the opposite direction.

"Ok, he's awake. Feel free to go ahead and ask whatever you want, either of you." he said as he unlocked the door and walked in.

"Good", the thinner spook moved forward, reached into his cloak and pulled out a Supersonic Injector, normally used for painless vaccinations, but inside it was filled with THC, enough to make our friend believe he is truly in heaven with 70 virgins. He also punched the prisoner, as he did, the other one moved forward and planted the truth serum in the prisoners glass of water.

"Now," the spook said "we can talk."

"So, Mr. Zarqawi, did you hear about the Global Jihad cells we cracked in Halberdgardia recently?"

OOC: Hes communistly revolting, how about you?

OOC: Yeah, ok, sure.

"So, Mr. Zarqawi, did you hear about the Global Jihad cells we cracked in Halberdgardia recently?"

"No, how would I do that? I'm in prison, remember?"

OOC: Yeah, ok, sure.

Rockwell was inwardly amused, but allowed nothing to cross his face. He pulled out a newspaper clipping:

THE HALBERDGARDIAN TIMES, 7/20/05

HFBI Cracks Terrorist Cells

WASHINGTON, D.C.--An official at the HFBI today revealed that HFBI agents, acting on HCIA intelligence, cracked more than a dozen major Global Jihad cells in Halberdgardia, arresting 90 suspected and known terrorists.

The arrests in Halberdgardia were coordinated with similar raids in Ribeirao Preto, where more than 100 Global Jihad insurgents were killed or captured.

The arrests came following the stunning revelation that the country of Rovonia was secretly supporting the terrorist group Global Jihad, who was behind the recent attack on a Halberdgardian military base in Ribeirao Preto, which killed 4 soldiers and wounded several others.

Even more stunning than this revelation was the development of the attempted betrayal of the Global Jihad leadership by the Rovonian government, the failure of which caused the figurative beheading of the Rovonian government and the deaths of more than 18 million civilians in a massive chemical weapons strike orchestrated by the Global Jihad leadership.

Acting on intelligence from unrevealed sources [OOC: this would be the fiber-optic cable tap I performed, and the data Dior transmitted before his death], HFBI agents raided dozens of apartment buildings and homes across Halberdgardia. Dozens of those arrested were on terrorist watch lists, and many others are assumed to be accomplices and subordinates. Among those arrested was Abu Ishmael Al-Sudayeen, the third-highest-ranking Global Jihad member. Al-Sudayeen has close ties to the group's leader, Omar al Zarqawi, and is said "to be cooperating" with HFBI agents and interrogators.

The apartments were also searched, and a variety of evidence was found: hidden stashes of automatic weapons, shotguns, and pistols, with large amounts of ammunition; bomb-making supplies; forged passports; terrorist "instruction manuals" that provide advice to operatives on infiltrating a country, blending in, and carrying out attacks; and various papers. Among the documents was a paper on plans to carry out a nuclear strike against Washington, D.C., detailing Rovonian attempts to acquire a nuclear weapon for use against the capitol. The HFBI and HCIA have stepped up security and intelligence efforts in light of this disturbing discovery, and Secretary of Energy Robin Metzer pledged to increase efforts at further securing nuclear assets within Halberdgardia.

"In light of this new development, it is now more important than ever that we work to further secure nuclear power plants, nuclear waste, and supplies of refined nuclear materials within Halberdgardia. I am willing to work however I can, and as much as I can, to do this," Metzer said today at a press conference following news of the arrests.

In light of the arrests, President Kir Kanos declared the threat from Global Jihad over in both Halberdgardia and Ribeirao Preto, but also urged vigilance.

"Though we have all but eliminated the terrorist presence both on our own soil and overseas, we cannot afford to lower our guard. Global Jihad is not completely defunct, and it would be unwise for us to think so and grow complacent. We must remain ever-viligant against further attacks, for the Islamic fundamentalists will never cease to hate our nation and attempt to destroy what we have created. We will fight them wherever they try to terrorize us or others. We will fight them in the name of freedom and justice," Kanos said at the press conference.

Halberdgardian military forces deployed overseas to Rovonia will be returning home, though some troops will be deployed to the new provincial territory of Coragem. The number of soldiers to be deployed to Coragem is expected to be around 10,000 to 15,000.

"Mr. Al-Sudayeen was a great help in helping us crack down on the final remaining cells in Halberdgardia and Saharistan. Global Jihad has been wiped off the map in those two countries."

Rockwell hoped that al Zaraqwi would get angry, and say something stupid in his anger. His knowledge of Global Jihad's attempts to obtain WMDs would be a great asset...if they could extract it from him...

"Mr. Al-Sudayeen was a great help in helping us crack down on the final remaining cells in Halberdgardia and Saharistan. Global Jihad has been wiped off the map in those two countries."

OaZ tried to remain calm, but it would have to eventually show through to anyone who was paying attention.

"Well... we.. I mean, you will still be destroyed! Next time we won't be so subtle!"

The burly ONI spook wiped the sweat off of OaZ's head, "You are exhausting yourself, you look nervous?" The spook smilied, "Have a drink."

"I am a little worried. I hate being surrounded by infidels. You might try to do unholy things to me!" OaZ screamed.

"Have a drink of what!" he said in a paniced voice.

"I am a little worried. I hate being surrounded by infidels. You might try to do unholy things to me!" OaZ screamed.

"I don't think I need to remind you that it was you who surrendered to us."

"Only to give others the chance at killing MILLIONS of evil infidels like you!"

The McKagan Lieutenant laughed.

"So, millions? There's no way to do that through conventional means...."

The Lieutenant paused for a few seconds to let the suspect think.

"Nukes, or some sort of bug, which is it?"

"Infidel! I owe you no answer!"

The conversation was now going in circles. The Lieutenant motioned to one of the ONI agents to go ahead with the insertion of the truth serum.

"How long does it take for the serum to start working?"

OOC: No idea, Leafys invention.
