To Xirnium: Do as we demand!

Terror of the World
21-12-2005, 09:35
A video tape was sent to Xirnium's government, its origins unknown aside from being sent from a Post Office in ViZion City, ViZion. It's content:

The camera is zoomed into the covered face of someone in a dark room with a spotlight on the person.

A voice seemingly coming from the person was spoken in a thick-accented, broken English in a deep, rough mans voice.

"You probably have been alerted that you have a missing child who was in ViZion with his family after ViZion notified you of their friendly views on your nation.
This missing boy happens to be with us. Yes, we have him. Right here."

The camera zooms out, and you can see the outline of two more people. A light is turned on, and you can now see that there are three tall people, completely covered in various cloth. Down at their feet is a boy, roughly 10 years old, bound, gagged, and his eyes covered by a black bandana, laying at their feet, his blonde hair long since covered in dirt and dust, much like the rest of his body and cloths. He is squirming around, but looks extremely tired from what you can see of his face.

"We have one demand. Declare all-out war on the nation of ViZion, demand your allies follow suite, and attack them. Bring them down in a blaze of flames.
You have until 12:30 PM GMT on Wednesday the 21st to make a public declaration of war on international television, with each and every one of your allies following suite within 12 hours, and a full-scale invasion into ViZion must start by the morning of Monday, the following week. If even one of those are not completely fulfilled by the deadlines we assign you, this boy will recieve an execution that will be videotaped and then sent around to news stations across the world to show what you would not do to save a young boy from a torturious death!"

With that, the video promptly ended.

International Ecclesiastical Edict

To: The International Community
From: His Most Worthy High Ecclesiarchy of the Holy Empire of Xirnium

The terrorist organisation "Terror of the World" is, quite frankly, woefully deluded if it thinks that the High Ecclesiarchy will declare a state of war with a nation friendly to Holy Xirnium, and whom is also a strong liberal democracy, simply because the terrorist group has cowardly threatened the life of a Xirniumite child in an audiovisual recording.

Holy Xirnium is a popular democracy and follows only the directives of the Xirniumite people, not foreign organisations or nations and especially not foul terrorist groups such as your own.

The High Ecclesiarchy can and will, however, proclaim that the "Terror of the World" organisation has been declared an enemy of the people and state of Holy Xirnium and that it shall be hunted down ruthlessly like the dog that it is and mercilessly destroyed with all possible haste.

The execution of the boy was to be video-taped and sent to news broadcasters across the world.

In what seemed to be the same room - all that was visible of the room were cement walls and a cement floor - the boy was chained to the boy, all but his underpants and gag taken off. A man stood above the boy, his entire body clothed to keep his indentity secret. He held two things. In his left hand, he held a weapon that was spiked on the top and on one side, with a large, clean, sharp blade. In his right hand he held a short pole with six different wipes, each with pieces of glass, metal, small hooks, and other small, sharp objects that can slice and cut away at flesh.

He looked over to another man, off camera, who gave him a nod.

The boy glanced at the man off camera, and seeing the nod, looked at the man towering above him. He pulled, trying to get free, but he was chained to cement and couldn't.

The man pulled back on the wipe, then went to work. One, two, three, four, five... on and one. The boy could be heard screaming through his gag, a sickening sound.

Blood splattered all over. Elevent, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fiveteen. Stop. The boy could barely move, his flesh torn up so severely it looked like someone had cut open and spilled the guts of some animal.

The man then began hitting the boy with the jagged side of the other weapon. Only some gurgling sounds could be heard from the boy anymore. After about 30 seconds, the man stopped. He, as well as the surrounding area, was covered in blood. He then took the blade and chopped the head off. The camera then turned off.

The videotape was duplicated. 24 copies in all were made, and within a day, they were all sent out from a Post Office in ViZion City addressed to the media of the world. Soon the world would see what happens if one does not do as Terror of the World demands. And it was only a small taste of what was to come.

President Villian and his staff stood to watch this video. Many could not handle it, and had to leave. President Villian, however, remained, watching it all. He knew this was punishment for Xirnium. And ViZion.

It had been replayed seemingly hundreds of times at every news station in ViZion today. It had become infamous.

"President. What do you plan on doing about this?" asked one of his secretaries, 21 year old Jessica, with long, shinny, flowing black hair. "What do you expect me to do? If I could, I'd send in the army and kill their asses, but their TERRORISTS! We don't know where they ARE!" he shouted. She looked down, "Sorry Mr. President." She began to turn, but he grabbed her shoulder. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have acted that way. Just a rather stressful day. We'll figure something out. They will pay for that." he said with a smile. She nodded with a smile and turned, heading out the door.

"General, get your ass over here!" President Villian demanded. General Asherland stopped his conversation with the Secretary of State and rushed over. "Sir!" he said. "General. Do you have any plans? Our country is already begining to cry out for the punishment. When the rest of the world awakes to see this video... my God!" he said. "Mr. President, I have ordered a full investigation to find out where that happened in, but we don't have much at all to go on. A cement room? That could be in the basement of any house in ViZion!" he cried. "We're on it."

"Good. Keep me updated, General." Villian ordered.

Villian Condemns Slaughter
Demands Terrorist Supporters To Come Forth

ViZion City, ViZion — President Villian today has condemned Terror of the World's slaughter of a young boy, believed to be roughly 10 years old and a citizen of Xirnium.

This came after Xirnium refused to turn on ViZion and invade, a demand Terror of the World made to them in their seemingly undying quest for the complete destruction of ViZion.

President Villian has also demanded all supporters of Terror of the World to come forth and hand over all information and terrorists, as well as pay a debt to the family for supporting a terrorist organization that gruesomely slaughtered this boy to death.

President Villian also is expected to make an announcement for a no-toleration pledge towards nations that support terrorism without coming forth and handing over all information and terrorists before being found to support them.

This comes a day after ViZion announced plans to increase the nuclear stockpile by 14,000 nuclear ICBM's as well as increase military funding. This is also on the same day that Villian announced the stockpile would increase in only three years, down from the previously announced five, as well as the announcement the military funding wouldn't just be increased, but rather doubled.

ViZion is expected to also lead a new-age fight against these terrorists and their supporters, and with the announcement of nuclear expansion and military funding being doubled, this could be a sign of things to come.

Today's VNB Poll shows the Presidents approval rating free-fall has slowed, down to 42.1%. Yesterday it was at 42.2%, and his high was six months ago at over 70%. These announcements, however, could bring some heavily-needed relief to the Villian administration, as it is expected his approval could actually improve over the next week for the first time in over six months.

The clicking sound of high heeled shoes walking on marble floors echoed ominously down a darkened corridor of the Grand Basilica of the High Ecclesiarchy. Lady High Grand Cardinal Heather Gilda (http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a25/Dennis134/Gilda.jpg) was in a foul mood, having just watched a full and unedited clip of the torture and murder of the abducted Xirniumite child. Her subordinates kept a respectable distance, not wishing to incur the Grand Cardinal's wrath. High Lady Gilda knew that in mere hours her office would be swamped with angry letters, as the Xirniumite news services would certainly have already gone to air with the uncut footage.

‘Your Eminence, Usea-Jason and Fourhearts send their condolences..’ explained an aid, walking briskly to keep up.

‘Really? Show me please,’ the Grand Cardinal commanded, taking the folder from the woman next to her and scanning the messages. Her furious expression softened slightly after she had finished reading what appeared to be genuinely heart-felt demonstrations of sympathy. I’ll draft a response as soon as I can get away from the meeting of the Patriarchate, she thought.

‘What will we do, your Eminence?’ asked the aid, having seen the harrowing images herself.

‘Hopefully that will be decided at the emergency meeting of the Patriarchate, but realistically we can’t hope for anything resembling quick justice. I’ve already talked with Norogoth from the Inquisition and he has explained to me that they will be diverting substantial resources to finding these filthy criminals. Like any grimy worm, however, it’s never easy to grab hold of terrorists, and it will take time,’ described High Lady Gilda.

‘I hope we get them, Eminence,’ explained the aid.

‘Oh, we will. The terrorist filth will be cleansed by the burning fire of our righteous rage,’ promised the Grand Cardinal savagely.

In Arn-Maciska, the Senior Cabinet stared at the video with the same equanimity with which they contemplated the weather.
A few of the junior staffers had run from the cabinet offices, most of the others had turned their faces away and the younger ministers had turned pale, but for the most part expressions didn't change.

Not a word was spoken during the video, although frequency glances were cast to where the King-Emperor was enthroned behind the First Minister.

The silence that followed the video's ending was broken by the Interior Minister.
"MNB International news received this a few hours ago. We have, of course, embargoed the tape for now; it's a little too graphic to show on Prime Time."
"Has Xirnium responded yet?" the Junior Science Minister said to Justina Valdir.
"Not yet. ViZion condemns it, of course, but-"
"MY GOD!" all heads turned to face the source of the outburst; a junior staffer, her face deathly pale.
"Do you all have icewater in your veins? How can you just sit there?" she seemed to wilt in the focus of so many penetrating gazes, then the First Minister rose from her seat and glided over, putting a maternal arm around the staffer.
"My dear, we have to think coldly, rationally," deMa'iska said, "if we let strong emotion interfere we could react in a way that could bring this nation to harm. And that we must not do," the tender tones she used were a surprise to everyone who only knew her as the Iron Maiden.
"I hope they are enjoying themselves," that dry, cracked, voice belonged to Iam Alberto Perez, Minister for Ecclesiastical affairs; he was looking at the King-Emperor, who had a faint smile playing around his lips.
"What? Why?" the staffer asked, her face and voice shocked.
"Because," the King replied in a soft voice, "when life is over, a nightmare awaits them," the room seemed to darken slightly at his words.
"And our official response?" asked Interior, breaking the spell.
"We have no official response," said Valdir, drawing a nod from deMa'iska. "We are neutral in all matters, but this is an affair between Xirnium, ViZion, and those barbarians. We will send our condolences to the Xirnium government of course, and the boy will be in our prayers, but beyond that...? We have more pressing concerns."
There was nodding from around the table.

Some background info on TW: He was originally based in the nation of Egypstan (RIP), but when Egypstan's insane leadership decided to use Acigoo wrecklessly and allowed terrorists to freely use their nation, a large number of nations, lead by ViZion, invaded Egypstan and decemated (sp?) it to nearly nothing. A few of their terrorists apparently escaped, and have since vowed to end ViZion, Jarridia, and any nations aligned or supportive of us. Egypstan rebuilt but has since disappeared.

Explosive laughter could be heard throughout the Great Hall as Minister Hartman and his associates watched the videotape from a Terror of the World cell. Lightweights.....fuckin' pansies.... and other jeering remarks erupted over the laughter, and after nearly 10 minutes Hartman was composed enough to make a statement.

If Terror of the World thinks that kidnapping and executing 1 pathetic child can coax Xirnium to declare war on ViZion, they are sadly mistaken. I'm afraid it will take a LOT more than that to do the trick, you inbred numbskulls.

Margaret Delray, the Kahanistan Minister of Foreign Affairs, spoke from a podium. She was an average-framed woman in her early forties with medium-length light red hair. She was in tears as she spoke to the international community from a prepared speech.

"Despite the strained relations between our nations, we would be remiss as a liberal democracy if we did not speak out against the abomination committed by Terror of the World. These animal people have murdered in the most barbaric fashion, in a way not even Kraven would contemplate, a citizen of an ally of Kahanistan, because it would not attack another of its allies."

Delray had stopped crying, but now was speaking very angrily. One wondered if what she said next was part of the original speech.

"The Government of Kahanistan promises a most hideous and brutal death to any citizen of Terror of the World who does not leave Kahanistan within one week, and to any militant or terrorist from that cancerous blight on the world unlucky enough to be captured by our troops."

"If Terror of the World does not surrender to Xirnium, ViZion, or Kahanistan all bloodthirsty animals involved in this atrocity, they will experience the wrath of Kahanistan's new nuclear arsenal, and Kahanistan will be importing billions of tons of glass."

I have consulted our Parliment and they have agreed. The actions taken by the Terror of the World demand a response in force. While I admit that my forces are minute compared to yours, the people of Fourhearts offers it's military in the effort to seek Justice. Our Airship Fleets make excellent transport craft for troops, supplies, and weapons. Our Marines would be proud and honored to fight beside you if the path of war is the one you must take. The people of Fourhearts are a noble people, and when we witness such injustice and inhumanity the people demand that we give an answer, even if this answer must be written in our own blood.

Regards,
King Drake Heart IV

The director of inteligence just shook his head, he was a vet of the thrid and most recent civil war so he knew about the major terrorist organization (being a Council agent tends to have you dealing with these types). He simply shook his head and passed a report on to the current president.

It seems terrorist organizations are like stepping in dog shit, as soon as you scrape it off you end up stepping in more. If suddenly the death of one child will force one nation to attack another then the whole world would be a nuclear hell hole. Next thing you know the newest terrorist attack will be pissing in the water supply.

Should the Kingdom of Fourhearts aid the infidels of ViZion, we small smother them with the wrath of Allah! - United Jihad

Dear Readers,

This was the message that landed in our email this morning. We laughed.

Yes, I know. This is a serious matter. Many of you attended the various candlelight vigils that were held last night in honor of the Xirnium boy. Many of you donated money out of the kindness of your hearts to a cause that shall be choosen by the Xirnium Government. What is more, is that there is a very large number of Airsailors, Guardsmen, and Marines who are more that happy to take up arms against vile monsters such as The Terror of the World and United Jihad.

So the United Jihad is threating the wrath of Allah.... It is our humble opinion that they should be worried about the wrath of The Fleet else they'll be seeing Allah a lot sooner than they think. If they think that Fourhearts can will shudder and shake because of a few words, then they have quite another thing coming.

I am proud to be a Heartsmen. I am proud that my nation seeks Justice. I am proud that countrymen are willing to fight alongside other nations for a safer world.

The object of terror is to cause fear, but let it be known there is no fear in Fourhearts this day. Only rightous rage.

Novacom Diplomatic Directive

From: Novacom Council of Ministers, Suprainister Denteth Tolion
To:Xirnium

We deeply feel your loss and a special rally of solidarity was held earlier to honour the poor child, our hearts go out to the parents. Should you require any aid from us please do not hesitate to ask.

The Message is signed in an indecipherable language, propably Novan

<Enclosed is a Viedo Tape>

The Streets of Novesia, bedecked in the Novacom Flag and banner echo with a mournful sounding yet cryptic language, Subtitles appear, "For those who have fallen, and those who will fall," Enforcers march by slowly, a single drum beat echoing throughout, "For a better future, and for a new destiny is what we hope for," The Enforcers and their Banners and flags flutter grimly in the wind, "Never shaken, forever stalwart, together we stand against the threat," Onwards the parade goes, drumbeats and slow yet perfectly timed marching echoing throughout the tall simple yet elegant buildings, "We stand with Xirnium, our friend and Ally, We stand together in griveing and in outrage,"

The long procession nears a platform, Novacom Flags at half mast and banners arranged in mournful position. A Podium with a forlorn looking individual, Suprainister Denteth Tolion looks up to the world his eyes burning with anger, Everything is silent, the winds whistle through the streets, the flags snap and flutter in the wind and the banners rustle gently, after a moment seemingly in the making for all eternity, the Suprainister speaks, "My People, we are gathered here today in mourning and in solidarity with the Xirnimite people, we must make sure that such an event is never allowed to happen again, such an act is surely true evil and it must be fought against, we can never allow such barbarity to happen again, I cannot allow it, we cannot allow it. Such an act isn't human, not even an animal would so such a thing, We will march forward with this as a symbol, a symbol of The World Terrorr's Destruction. We Cannot allow people who freely commit such terrible acts without remorse to exist in a world where hope eixsts," The Suprainister near the end punches the air with his fists, and a song is began, by all of those present, a great and epic soung of mourning, one over 6,000 years old there is no translation for this bit, but it is deeply moving and evocative of images of hope and redemption.

Official Inquisitorial Edict

To: Citizens of Holy Xirnium
From: His Most Glorious Inquisition of the Holy Empire of Xirnium

Thought for the day: It is not enough to have a clever mind, the main thing is to use it well.

The Inquisition advises all people living in Holy Xirnium that, effective immediately, our agents have been given the authority to randomly check the identities of any individual within the sovereign borders of the Holy Empire. We therefore request that all Xirniumite citizens carry with them at all times their identity papers for the immediate future.

It is believed by the Inquisition and other Xirniumite intelligence agencies that a small band of Kraven terrorists have infiltrated our sacred lands. A concentrated sweep of the nation should uncover their foul stench soon enough, and a return to normalcy shall be possible shortly. The newly passed Xirnium Home Secuirty Act 2005 clearly stipulates that our increased powers are to end in six months.

All Xirniumite citizens are asked to report the presence of unusually powerfully-built male adults to their nearest Inquisition or law enforcement officer, though they are not to be confronted, as this is the apparent physical description of the Kraven scum.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused, and thankyou for understanding. As soon as the Kraven filth is cleansed these new measures will no longer be neccessary.

A lone Wolf brigades man stalked through the streets at night, The Skies were black, and the only light eminated from the Full moon hung low in the sky, How fitting that during a Full Moon, The Wolf Brigade were hunting.

This part of the City was empty, it was about 3:30 in the morning, and the only people around were the Homeless, or those returning home from a late shift at work.

This Wolfbrigades man was armoured, His GPMG was slung to his back pack, and he carefully strode through the streets, avoiding Security Cameras and police Patrols with ease, He was a Wolf Brigadesman, all of this was second nature to him.

Ahead of him, a young man still wearing his work overalls from the Cinema quickly headed home, the news reports of Terrorists Operating within the city had been in the news for the past week, nervous and Anxcious he walked quickly with his head down.

The Trooper continued to stride after him, his larger massive frame slowly rising above him like a dark shadow sweeping across the land...

The Trooper grabbed the man with both hands, lifting him off the ground with ease, his small frame struggled against the strength of the Wolf Brigadesman, as the Trooper slowly choked the life from him... Within three minutes the wriggleing stopped....

the Trooper dropped him to the ground with a heavy thump.

The Man didn't even see who'd just killed him, A restless soul... lost for eternity.

But it Didn't stop there, The Trooper hiked the man up against the wall, then with a Mallet and several large nails, proceeded to nail him to the wall, his hands held out in a scene typical to a crucifixion.

The Trooper Cut the mans throat, the blood ran freely, still warm...

A black glove smeared the word "WAR" onto the wall...

Before disappearing into the Darkness once more....

Three Velkyan marines who were patrolling that street walked towards the scene of the cruxifiction, their ARC-4s slung on their shoulders, looking for a martket to chow down at. They passed a abandoned shop, instictively looking in.

"Holy fucking Christ!"

They ran over, viewing the grisly sight. A young mans throat had been slit, his body nailed and there was the word war smeared in blood on the wall. "Fucking Kraven scum!" one of the soldiers yelled. A second had an idea.
"He must have ran through an alleyway, hunt that fucker down!"They ran through the nearest alleyway, their ARC-4s and Omni-Scope scanning the darkened area. Footprints were visable on the floor as they persued the Wolf Brigade soldier. The third soldier got on his radio. "We've got a suspected Kraven Special Forces soldier in Sector 12, we need some aerial assitance, over!" The voice on the radio answered, responding, "Roger that, Hark 9, we've redirected a Luna flight to your position, over and out."

Lady Inquisitor Aleia walked alone distractedly along one of the gloomier alleyways of Braythern. The Inquisitor often walked late at night, especially whenever she had a lot on her mind, and rather enjoyed the empty quietness and ominous dark of the grim predawn hours. Besides, the Inquisition had just instigated a vast manhunt for the Kraven filth, and her appointed task was to patrol this sector of the city.

The faint sound of shoes scraping on pavement and a silent struggle instantly brought the Inquisitor’s attention back to the present. No ordinary person would have detected it, but even an Inquisitor as young as her, lacking in the decades of experience that others of her ancient order possessed, could discern the most minute sounds with her sharp perceptive abilities. The briefest flurry of her dark cloak and Lady Aleia’s deadly assault rifle was in hand, its dull steel cold to the touch. Barely a moments hesitation and her mind was made, it's the Kraven beasts!

Sprinting at an unnaturally fast pace the Lady Inquisitor set off in search of the source of the commotion, acutely alert to danger. With deliberate thought she flooded her cells with large quantities of adrenaline and glucose, consciously regulating arterial vasoconstriction and vasodilation to alter the diameter of her blood vessels, ensuring a large supply of blood was directed to where it was most needed. Her mind raced ahead, processing countless variables as she prepared to enter combat. It was the greatest strength of all Inquisitors, the almost superhuman mental capabilities that they possessed as a virtue of the training in the ancient secrets of their order.

The disturbance had been far away, but she would catch the culprit. Vaulting flawlessly over a steel link fence she pressed on in pursuit of her prey, her cloak billowing out behind her. The Lady Inquisitor was a silent wind, about to become a storm of absolute fury.

The Trooper had heard the Inquisitor land over the metal fence, his Optical Mag had picked up her movements on the Sonar and already he was waiting, Crouched low using the shadows to hide his form...

A few more meters... the Sonar was mapping it our perfectly...

The Trooper Side stepped out of the shadows suddenly, The Inquisitor suddenly surprised by this much larger Armoured foe, staring at her with Crimson Red eyes of the Gas mask, using her momentum against her, The Trooper effortlessly flipped her over his head, the Young woman landed on the ground hard, hitting her head, her vision was blury, she checked for her rifle, "Shit.."

The Rifle lay a few feet away, but was suddenly greated by a black Jack boot kicking it several meters away.

The Inquisitors vision slowly began to return to its norm, only to see the Steel blade of an eighteen inch Bayonet being driven towards her head....

[Edit, OCC: Ahh, I see you beat me to the punch, Velkya. For the sake of continuity assume the following occurs mere moments before your troopers arrive on the scene]

The Inquisitor blinked furiously, returning her vision into sharp focus. She crouched on the filthy ground, silently reprimanding herself for not having noticed the hidden enemy. No experienced Inquisitor would have allowed that to happen, she thought bitterly.

Her head screamed with agony, an indication that the Lady Inquisitor might have suffered a slight fracture from the fall. Noting the injury she quickly and totally switched of the pain from the affected nerve endings, removing the distraction from her thoughts. I can deal with it another time, she thought grimly. In the meantime, of course, the Kraven commando had not waited for the Inquisitor to recover, and was ruthlessly moving in for the kill.

Reflexively reacting to the stab of the deadly steel blade, Lady Aleia leapt back with superhuman speed, narrowly avoiding its sharp edge. Quickly seizing the opportunity the Inquisitor tightly gripped the barrel of the rifle (with apparently astonishing strength for a women of such a slender build) twisting the firearm expertly out of the Wolfbrigades man’s hands. With her free hand she delivered the trooper a devastating unarmed blow to the chest, consciously manipulating every individual muscle and ligament involved in the movement to coordinate the most powerful impact, causing the Kraven filth to slam backwards with a crash into the grimy brick wall.

Not willing to wait a moment the Inquisitor thrust the bayonet into the trooper, plunging it deep into his relatively unarmored abdomen.

The Knife slid into his abodomen, there was no sound of pain, no murmour, it just slid in effortlessly, The Inquisitor smiled, she thought the Job done. The Troopers red glowing eyes stared straight back into hers without a hint of emotion or care, just lifeless lenses.

The Black Fist was brought up, and with a hammering blow took the inqusitor off her crouched positon, she landed a few feet back, skidding a little and kicking up the dust...

The Trooper rose off the ground, removing the knife from his abodemen slowly, as one would carefully remove a blade from a knife block in a kitchen.

He approached the inquisitor, planning to kill her once and for all.

The Trooper grabbed the inquisitors long hair, then brought his Bayonet to her neck.

[OCC: What in the hell happened here… I’m gone for only a couple of hours and when I get back I find the storyline has been altered? It’s disappointing that you two couldn’t agree on some kind of a compromise.

You still have troops in the area though, don't you Velkya, trying to track it down? Or is my agent all alone out there?]

Though the Kraven trooper had viciously grabbed Lady Inquisitor Aleia by her lovely brown hair and prepared to slit her throat, he was far from in full control of the situation, and he elicted no flinch from his foe. Lady Aleia’s utterly logical mind immediately devised the appropriate counterattack strategy, based both on the deadly unarmed fighting method of the Inquisition and the dictates of the current situation. The Wolfsbrigades commando would soon learn the peril of getting overly close to a Xirniumite Inquisitor.

Timing her attack flawlessly, the Lady Inquisitor reached across to the gauntleted hand of her assailant, quick as lightening. Before he could even bring the blade to her throat the Inquisitor had broken his hand, twisting the soldier’s thumb until its bone splintered, thus releasing his hold. Continuing the fluid assault Lady Aleia delivered a savagely powerful elbow blow to the despised Kraven trooper’s neck, her goal to shatter the man’s larynx.

The force of the impact caused the Wolfsbrigades man to soar several feet before crashing into a cluster of aluminium garbage bins with an awful clatter. To say that Lady Inquisitor Aleia may have been slightly annoyed at the turn of events would be something of an understatement. Not only had her Kraven prey managed to surprise her when this encounter had commenced (something unheard of amongst Inquisitors, who are capable of noticing minutiae that others miss to a terrifying degree) but had survived impalement by an 18 inch bayonet, a wound that should have easily killed anything resembling a normal human.

Clearly the Lady Inquisitor was dealing with something formidable here, and there would be no more mistakes, no more chances taken. Though this was only her first encounter with the Kraven filth she had already gathered and catalogued a wealth of data from the observations of her enemy, and Lady Aleia now knew both his limitations and capabilities. Next time Lady Aleia would make certain he was dead, by severing his head.

Mercilessly the Inquisitor closed in on the Kraven filth, rapidly reaching him before he could get up. With phenomenal strength she lift up the unnaturally massive individual, hurling him with such tremendous force that he was propelled through the wall, crashing in a heap of shattered bricks on the other side.

Now it ends, thought the Lady Inquisitor grimly, pulling her pistol from a hidden fold in her dark cloak, under no illusions that her quarry yet lived and was extremely dangerous. These Wolfbrigades commandos were more then human, and only ruthless perseverance would take them down. Peering through the thick dust of shattered brickwork, not even the accute eyesight of the Inquisitor could make out the soldier's form. Lady Aleia could not afford to wait for it to clear, and fired several shots after the Kraven trooper based on hearing alone, hoping to slay the demon. Their ominous reports would quickly bring down a mass of heavily armed law enforcement and counter-terrorist agents to the area.

[OOC: The following is the post I was going to make before Kraven unexpectedly RPed his murder. This sort of happens at around a similar time to all the other stuff that's going on]

Lady High Grand Cardinal Heather Gilda sighed, removing her glasses to rub the bridge of her nose tiredly. The swarm of angry letters which had inundated her office had been even greater then she had imagined they would be, and what with her normal mountain of paperwork and the numerous diplomatic communiqués that needed addressing Lady Gilda had a nightmare of work to get through. It was already well past three in the morning, with no end in sight.

‘Busy, I see,’ observed Lord High Grand Cardinal Ertham Nidor, Chief Minister of the High Ecclesiarchy, as he quietly entered the Foreign Minister’s substantial office. His blood red cloak sparkled with the glint of rain droplets, clearly there must be stormy weather outside.

‘What are you still doing up, Ertham?’ asked the High Lady, her eyes narrowing in suspicion.

‘Oh, I don’t sleep,’ joked Lord Nidor grimly as he waved his wizened old hand in a dismissal of the very notion notion. Siting at one of the elegant armchairs arranged around a magnificent fireplace (now reduced to glowing embers) the Chief Minister poured himself a glass of bourbon whiskey. ‘Actually, I hoped you might be interested in a game of chess.’

‘I’m sorry but that wont be possible tonight, unfortunately. I’ve got a lot to do,’ explained the Foreign Minister, gesturing to the files stacked on her mahgony desk. ‘This “Terror of the World” threat is just what we need, with those Kraven brigands still roaming about,’ complained the Grand Cardinal.

‘I spoke to Lord High Inquisitor Sygnus Verdant earlier in the evening. He assured me that the Kraven filth won’t be a problem for much longer, that new counterterrorism methods would quickly flush the rats out into the open. Their days are numbered,’ spoke High Lord Nidor offhandedly, sipping from his glass.

‘Unfortunately the "Terror of the World” threat will be harder to contend with,’ mused High Lady Gilda as she inscribed her elegant signature on a finished communiqué. ‘The Kraven demons are actually in Holy Xirnium, and we need only adopt classic detective and anti-guerrilla tactics to defeat them. We know where they are. “Terror of the World”, on the other hand, will be difficult to uncover, precisely because we don't know their location, and the problem requires that we cooperate with foreign intelligence agencies to flush them out.’

‘In that case I’ll leave you to your work,' said High Lord Nidor, who turned to leave, 'see you in the morning.’

OOC: I was aware that I was the only foreign power with troops in Xirnium, Apart from Kraven Obviously, Like I said earlier this isn't a compotition, it's a story everything that is done must be to advance the story, taking him alive or at least making an epic fight out of the killing is the goal, putting a bullet a 20mm bullet no less in the victims skull straight off the bat does not make for good story.

IC: Nearby cloaked in the dust stood the form of Lieutenant Falkonois, to anyone paying atention he had seemingly "flown" over a fence, not jumped, he had sensed trouble, the area pulsed with psychic agony and distress, it was like a scar pulsating and oozing with pain it hadn't taken much to catch his attention, he had been probing the city for Kraven Terrorists, He had been able to yield something from his efforts, a name to this group, The Corporation called them The Wolf Brigade, interesting to know.

"Calm yourself Inquisitor, we must take him alive to break the rest of his cell," with a flourish he stepped out of the dust, reaching out with his hands he checked as to whether the Kraven Trooper still lived, only just barely it seemed, with a slight effort he marshalled his psychic powers sending them streaming through the Wolfbrigadesmans skull, the effect would be akin to fainting however this faint would last until the correct stimulations were given, In essence a Coma. With a casual hand wave the Kraven trooper would soar into the air hovering like a menacing scarecrow, the eyes, or rather lenses piercing the grim night with their evil red glow, "My Inquisitor you have been busy this evening, However though you must leran to control that temper of yours, indeed control all of your emotions, I could feel them from a mile away," His voice casual etheral and quiet, yet it echoed with power seemingly long lost and rediscovered, it was strangely charismatic and if the speaker had wished it, the air itself would seemingly arrange itself to doi his wishes.

Through virtue of her exceptional situational awareness the Lady Inquisitor had already noticed Falkonois’ presence, but did not immediately turn to face him. Instead she calmly ejected the spent magazine of her pistol, removing a new one from the folds of her dark cloak and inserting it with a satisfying click. 'Ahh, Lieutenant Falkonois, a pleasure to see you again. I could have used your help a moment ago,' she explained darkly.

The Inquisitor was ever vigilant, and kept her eyes cautiously on the Wolfsbrigades man. ‘He will live,’ Lady Aleia explained to the Black Skull Enforcer clinically, listening to the wounded trooper’s faint heartbeat and laboured breathing from a distance. The man was critically injured, but alive. Despite having fired blindly into the dust the shots had been expertly aimed, any ordinary individual thus hit would most certainly have died.

‘I’m somewhat surprised, Lieutenant, that you would be able to detect any emotions within me,’ admitted the Lady Inquisitor in her typically moderated tone, examining the floating Kraven terrorist with detached interest. ‘A folly of youth, I suppose.. I wonder if you could uncover the suppressed emotions of a veteran Inquisitor? Should I wish it I can manipulate the very electrochemical signals of my brain, feigning death which can fool even the most sophisticated medical devices. And yet you can sense what I hide… curious indeed. We will have to talk about this at greater length some other time perhaps.’

Absentmindedly the Inquisitor brought her hand up to touch her matted hair, withdrawing it to find it glistening with blood. Lacerations to the scalp, skull fractures, the Inquisitor catalogued, noting her injuries. If the Lady Inquisitor had not shut of the pain from that part of her body it would likely have been unbearable. By manipulating her own natural responses, injury recovery could commence rapidly. Dangerous concussion and bruising could be avoided, excessive bleeding stopped, skull and flesh damage repaired. It would all take mental effort, though.

‘People are approaching our position,’ the Lady Inquisitor announced unconcernedly, turning to regard the Novan Lieutenant curiously with her lovely green eyes. They were still quiet distant, but even at range she could tell by the distinctive sound of their footfalls that they were not Kraven, both their boots and build were different. ‘With any luck interrogation of the captive will reveal valuable intelligence, though we will need to transport him to a secure facility.’

Two Xirniumite police officers approached at a jog, evidently attracted by the sounds of shots fired. Armed with FAMAS G2 assault rifles the men looked grim, having been of course notified of the massacre of the small police station in southern Xirnium and not taking any chances.

‘Inquisitor..’ the leader stated, relieved to see the unmistakable cloak of Lady Aleia’s order. The two came to attention, though they looked at the mysterious Novan inquisitively.

‘Sergeant, inform your superiors that we have captured one of the Kraven terrorists. I want an immediate tenfold increase in law enforcement in this city and I want you to secure the area,’ ordered the Lady Inquisitor.

‘Yes sir,' the police constables replied, running off to carry out the command.

'So, Lieutenant, shall we begin?' Lady Aleia asked Falkonois, smiling weakly.

There is perhaps a bit of information you should know concerning Mr. Darkrain. He is an exile of the Kingdom of Fourhearts.

Long ago, Derek Darkrain was a promising Knight and Captain of the Black Gaurd. About two years ago, Darkrain's father was murdered in an act of gang violence. This did something terrible to Darkrain's pskye. He inflitrared one of the most notorious criminal gangs in the Kingdom and befriended their leader. Upon gaining the leaders trust, Darkrain brutally killed him and cut out his heart. He sent the peices to each of the other leaders of the gang and promised that if he ever saw them again he would do the same unto them. This struck such fear in their hearts that one committed suicide, two fled the country, and the rest turned themselves in.

It is important not to note the brutality that Darkrained used to extract his vengence, but that he is capable of thinking like a terrorist. This insight should prove most useful. Normally, this crime would have earned Darkrain a spot at the execution chair. However, by wiping out the leadership of one of the most violent gangs in our history, Darkrain was instead exiled.

We hope you can find him usefull.

Greetings, worthy ally.

We thank your nation for their statement of solidarity and sympathy to the Holy Xirnium and the family of the innocent child so cruelly slain by these foul heathens. The outpouring of concern shown in the Novan rally will doubtlessly be much appreciated by those affected by this latests pointless act of terrorism.

Your offer of assistance is appreciated, and the High Ecclesiarchy notes that you already have sent numerous Novan agents to Holy Xirnium in the attempt to wipe out the Kraven vermine which have infested our sacred lands. For this we shall be ever grateful.

To: The High Council of the Infinite Empire
From: His Most Worthy High Ecclesiarchy of the Holy Empire of Xirnium

Greetings to noble Yallak.

We thank our most honourable protector, the Infinite Empire, for their statement of solidarity and sympathy to the Holy Xirnium and those directly affected by this foul act.

Of course, we have already launched an investigation to determine the base of operations for these terrorist cowards, and when they are discovered we would graciously appreciate any and all help you could render in our efforts to cleanse their scourge from the face of the Earth.

We note that, at present, the Infinite Empire maintains slightly less then one and a quarter million troops in Holy Xirnium involved in reconstruction efforts. The High Ecclesiarchy asks of the noble Councillors of the Infinite Empire if these soldiers might be directed to assist us in our efforts to located the small band of Kraven bandits that has so far eluded detection. Their continued presence defiles the sacred soil of the Holy Empire, and cannot be tolerated.

It was raining when Derek Darkrain arrived in Xirnium.

His trenchcoat kept the rain off of his broad shoulders. Derek didn't mind the rain. His cool grey eyes searched the map that he had been given. Silver hair being tossed about by the wind. His black katana was affixed to his belt, hidden beneath the heavy leather coat.

The large collar also was hiding the Mark of Exile. It was a heart carefully torn in two that was placed on the back of his neck.

The 4 remaining troopers headed out from the old warehouse, leaving through the back door and climbing into the Van, it was a different van this time, the other one used for the Hit on the Police station had been dumped in the River a couple of miles from the city limits.

This time they were not going to hit a Military or Police target....

They were going to spill the blood of the innocent...

Perhaps then Xirnium would understand the price of Crossing the Corporation....

[OCC: Using fluidtime the following occurs a little after the events happening at the moment in the alleyway]

A gruff, slightly overweight man well into his sixties approached Darkrain, his coat collar turned up against the freezing wind. ‘Mr Derek?’ the man asked brusquely, checking his credentials with a scowl on his face, ‘Detective Inspector Faroth, Xirnium Criminal Investigation Department.’

The detective was conspicuously armed with a customised Protecta (http://world.guns.ru/shotgun/SH09-E.HTM) 12-gauge rapid-fire shotgun, definitely not standard police issue. When word had got out about the poor bastards who had died in the police station massacre, Faroth had proceeded to acquire the most powerful gun from the contraband weapons locker he could find, telling the suprised Superintendent precisely what he could do with the standard regulations. The firearm hadn't left his side since.

I wonder how well the Kraven scum will feel after a few good shotgun blasts to the head… he had thought to himself grimly. The Inspector may have been getting slightly on in life, but that hadn’t made him lose his edge, and he was still as good a shot as ever.

Shifting the shotgun to his left hand the police constable offered his right for Darkrain to shake, grinning. ‘Apparently the Inquisitor you're after is interrogating one of the Kraven filth down at lock-up. Anyway, I’m supposed to take you there.’

Lieutenant Falkonois had levitated the comatose form of the Wolfsbrigadesman (for ease of typing and reading I'll refer to it s a WBM from now on) before he and the Inquisitor had left however he had brought out a large container and collected a quantity of rainwater, focusing on it causing the very water to glow and hiss he caused a complex transmutation, "Here apply this to your wounds," Handing the container, which now contained a potent anti-biotic and healing agent with sterilising agents as well as anastehtical properties.

After that business had been taken care of he had followed behind the Inquisitor while keeping the WBM in the air, face up acting as a sinister umbrella for the pair, "If you wish we can discuss it, the interrorgation will be swift, and it will need to be." he pauses a moment cenbtering himself mentally, "I sense a hostile presence, I suspect it is a counter attack forming up, however though they have already entered the city, and they are in a particularly high density population area, I can no longer clearly distinguish them," the WBM would lower down to enter the secure facility that had been set aside, once inside Dalsulse would lower the WBM down onto a bed, unrestrained.

"this will only take a moment" Lieutenant Dasulse Falkonois would place both hands in the mans short cropped hair, abruptly all signs of his presence would seemingly vanish, only the fact that he was stood right there in plain view was evidence of his further existance, a faint purple haze suroounded him, Dasulse's eyes flicked beneath his closed eyelids the WBM would twitch and judder, Dasulse would be focring his mental presence through the very nuerons of the WBM, essentially rewiring the brain to suit his own purposes, plucking out trivial facts and preparing the victim for interrorgation.

"He is ready for questioning, have a care though start slowly once hs is revived he will be unable to move anything apart from his mouth, however though taking things too quickly could overcome what I've just done" He prised his grapsing hands from the sinister head of the WBM, The man would be unable to move, his mind had been rewired to unquestionably obey and fufil the directives of the Inquisitor and the Enforcer, there was no resisting it, whatever commands he may receive from the Command relay wouldn't affect him, however there were weaknessess, like Dasulse had said taking things too quickly could undo the rewiring of the brain, at least undo it too early.

With a face showing nothing but casual disinterest Dasulse took the WBM in at a glance, mentally applying the correct stimulii to the man, he would come round almost instantly finding himself near paralysed, "You have first question, Inquisitor, However you need not ask what division they are from, they are Wolf Brigade,"

The Lady Inquisitor frowned at the question, a little sceptical about what she had just witnessed. The strange abilities of the Black Skull Enforcer were beyond her utterly logical mind’s ability to completely understand. They cast slight doubts in her thoughts, doubts which she ruthlessly suppressed as soon as she noticed them.

‘There is only one question that matters, Lieutenant, and that is the location of the rest of the Kraven bandits,’ explained Lady Aleia, returning to the issue at hand. ‘However, I am reminded of your warning. Something a lot safer then, perhaps?’ she asked.

Turning to the captive her tone became forceful, ‘state your designation.’

The response was automatic, ‘XAQ 18.’

Shifting the shotgun to his left hand the police constable offered his right for Darkrain to shake, grinning. ‘Apparently the Inquisitor you're after is interrogating one of the Kraven filth down at lock-up. Anyway, I’m supposed to take you there.’

Darkrain shook the man's hand, his cold grey eyes admiring the shotgun.

"Nice shotgun. That would be a Protecta I persume?"

Darkrain and the officer talked as they traveled towards the prison. Darkrain was paying close attention to his surrondings. His senses becoming attuned to the new enviroment.

A sense of dread came over Darkrain as he approached the darkend building. Those outside Fourhearts regarded Heartsmen as having a 'sixth sense' of sorts. They knew things before they happened. They could sense danger. They knew when things were not right. Some even thought that Heartsmen were psycic.

This was rubbish. Heartsmen were merely raised to listen to thier intuition. Everyone could if they really wanted too. Gut feelings, vibes, funny feelings were merly the minds way of letting one know that something was out of place. With experiance, one could determine what was happening very quickly.

As Darkrain approched the building, he noticed things and made mental notes of them. The guards everywhere, even the ones that were not in uniform.

Walls do not talk, but Darkrain could almost feel the pain emmersing from within as they entered the building.

The Detective Inspector chuckled without a trace of mirth as he fumbled for his keys. ‘Yep, sure is. I see you know your firearms,’ he observed grimly. ‘Automatic shotgun with 12 round capacity, just what the doctor ordered. Since the police station massacre a short while back all cops have been heavily armed with assault rifles, and directed by command to wear protective vests. I thought I’d go one up on ‘em, however.’

The downpour of rain had steadily gotten worse, and even with the windscreen wipers on their highest setting it was difficult to see where they were going. Traffic, as always was horrendous, made worse by the weather. Xirniumite civilians still persevered though, all too familiar with Holy Xirnium’s atrocious weather, and could be seen hurrying about on the pavements with their black umbrellas or, for those without, with their shoulders hunched against the wind.

‘Here we are,’ Detective Inspector Faroth announced darkly as he pulled over and got out of the car. You’ve had your weapons cleared by the higher ups, so let’s go right on ahead and meet the Inquisitor.’

Showing his badge to the guards, who seemed to take longer then usual to examine it, the two entred the fortress of a building with something approaching apprehension.

The Troopers were getting ready for the next major hit, and despite the loss of their commerade, they were sure that the mission would be a success, random murders, and the strike on the Police station gave no indication what so ever the next hit would be a major civilian target...

Darkrain's first thought when setting eyes on Lady Aleia was that she was a very attractive woman. However, Darkrain's keen intuition was also informing Darkrain that this woman could probably snap his neck if he pissed her off. It was not so much a feeling of dread per se, but rather like being in a cage with a scarlet dragon.

8:10 AM, rushhour in downtown ViZion City.

Three white utility vans with black tinted windows moved slowly along a major road in ViZion City. It was a typical nice, clear, warm morning in ViZion City, and the perfect time to do some killing. It had been far to long since the last attack on ViZionarian soil.

The three vans, each placed half a mile apart along the busy downtown road, were filled with explosives of all sorts. Two in each van were also filled with nerve gas. But they lacked the big punch - nuclear weapons. Those would be saved for a much better use and time.

They each had a clock with the time in sync with eachother. At the exact same time, they would blow.

8:13:25 AM rolled along seemingly as slowly as the traffic for the commuters. The vans exploded, sending a blast roughly three quarters of a mile in all directions from the white utility vans. Cars were thrown into the offices and stores lining the street, many people right by the van incenerated by the blast and those farther away, picked up and thrown several feet, some into buildings or polls. And with the force of the blast, the nerve gas was thrust into the air to begin overtaking those left alive by the blast.

Explosive laughter could be heard throughout the Great Hall as Minister Hartman and his associates watched the videotape from a Terror of the World cell. Lightweights.....fuckin' pansies.... and other jeering remarks erupted over the laughter, and after nearly 10 minutes Hartman was composed enough to make a statement.

If Terror of the World thinks that kidnapping and executing 1 pathetic child can coax Xirnium to declare war on ViZion, they are sadly mistaken. I'm afraid it will take a LOT more than that to do the trick, you inbred numbskulls.

After most of the dust cleared, it was seen. Hundreds of mangled half-bodies strewn across the cement - or, what was once cement. Where the bombs had gone off, there were now craters, probably a good five or more feet deep, and longer than the vans that carried them.

Cars - and parts of them - were all around. Some were stuck in buildings, others on their tops or sides. Others came to rest on their tires. They were all damaged - blown out glass, crushed sheet metal, torn in half, or all in parts.

In the buildings, fires raged as the survivers within the building tried to comprehend what just happened. As one lady looked up from where she lay, just feet away from a window that had managed to escape a blow-out, she froze. Thrust partway through the window was part of a blood-covered person, to torn up to tell if it was a man or a woman. The person was just stuck their partway in, part way out, mouth gaping, staring down at her.

President Villian stood at his podium. The ViZionarian flags in the room were half-staff. The look on his face, usually a beaming, gleaming smile, was that of ultra-sadness. Looking at his glassed-over eyes, it was clear he had been crying, and was still on the verge of it. The first terrorist attack against our people under my command... he thought, Hundreds are dead... continued to repeat in his mind.

He put his hand up in the air to single for the press to calm and quiet down. They did so immediately, unlike their usual.

He began,
This morning at roughly 8:10 AM, ViZion came under attack. While no terrorist organization has yet taken claim to this, we are more than certain it is Terror of the World. Yes, Terror of the World, the same one the ravaged ViZionarians for years and years. The same terrorists that MURDERED President Chiefy. And, indeed, the same terrorists that went into hidding for many years now until they took the life of a young Xirnium boy this past week.

He passed for a second to gather him self as he took a deep breath and slowly let it out.

Terror of the World has returned, and they remain bent of the destruction of our great nation. They have once again begun to target ViZionarian civilians without care. Hundreds were dead before the emergency crews could arrive, and hundreds have dead since.

As he spoke, his voice cracked a little, his eyes began to run. He was fighting his tears.

These terrorists are nothing but cowards, but very deadly ones at that. They will use any and all methods to kill ViZionarian citizens and bring this great nation to its knees. But they won't! These terrorists have never brought us down, and they never will, now or in the future! Our resolve only gets stronger with each and every attack they bring to us.

ViZion will continue to rise, continue to grow, and we will destroy these terrorists with all our might! They will never beat us. Never! I swear to you that! ViZionarians cannot, and will not, be broken by these terrorists!

Now, please - spend some time with your family and friends. Go to your places of worship. Relax. We will win this war. They will be the definative looser. Stay on track and do not fear them. Continue with life. Don't let them break you - it is exactly what they want, my fellow ViZionarians!

Good night, and God Bless our great nation and its great people!

He quickly exited, not willing to answer any questions at this time.

The Lady Inquisitor turned away in disgust from the Wolfbrigadesman, who was still idiotically listing the designations of every single member of the Wolf Brigade organisation. This is a waste of time, we should just hand him over for trial to the High Supreme Court and get on with the rest of the investigation, Lady Aleia thought grimly. Looking at this new individual she regarded the Fourhearts exiles carefully.

‘Ahh, Mr Darkrain, I’ve been looking forward to meeting you,’ Lady Aleia announced, inclining her head towards the man in the traditional Xirniumite greeting and smiling warmly. The Lady Inquisitor wondered briefly whether the exile had researched Xirniumite customs to discover that greetings were usually made with bows or whether perhaps Holy Xirnium might share this convention with Fourhearts. ‘Thankyou Detective Inspector, that will be all,’ added the Lady Inquisitor, as the grumbling police constable left the room, muttering darkly.

‘As you can see, Mr Darkrain, we’re having less then resounding success interviewing the captive terrorist,’ continued the Lady Inquisitor.

Open Diplomatic Ecclesiastical Edict

To: President Villian of the Executive Government of the Constitutional Federal Republic of ViZion
From: His Most Worthy High Ecclesiarchy of the Holy Empire of Xirnium

The High Ecclesiarchy was disgusted and saddened to learn of the latest terrible outrage committed against the innocent people of ViZion by the cowards of the “Terror of the World” criminal organisation. Holy Xirnium extends its deepest and most heartfelt sympathies to the families of those affected, the Government of ViZion and the ViZionarian people.

The citizens of ViZion are a stalwart and brave people, utterly committed to the noble cause of liberty and democracy, and the High Ecclesiarchy has no doubt that they shall find the courage to endure the terrible atrocity that has been committed against them. Your stand against the scourge of terror symbolises the bitter conflict between the bright light of liberal civil rights and the hopeless darkness of tyranny. May the light never falter.

The High Ecclesiarchy stands in solidarity with your noble nation, and will render all assistance it can in helping you hunt down these foul criminals and brigands to the very ends of the Earth.

By now the man had finished reeling off all the information, Dalsulse would nod politley at the newcomer,

"Welcome Mr Darkrain, your presence was anticipated, now" turning back to the captive, "State Wolf Brigade protocol for capture of an infiltration operative,"

‘As you can see, Mr Darkrain, we’re having less then resounding success interviewing the captive terrorist,’ continued the Lady Inquisitor.

"It's not your fault. Probing the minds of monsters and puppets would seem rather....fruitless. If half of what I've heard of them is true, then they wouldn't know that the sky was blue. Much less anything of importance."

"Even Puppets have their uses, discovering what their procedure's are is beyond worth"

Managing a thin smile he continues, chuckling slightly

"You or the Inquisitor have next question, though you'll find they have a sense of humour and given time I could break this one's programming, an easy task but a time consuming one best saved till after we have gotten the information we desire out of him"

Upon hearing the Kraven's response to Darkrain's condesending remark, Darkrain burst out laughing.

"Mr. Dalsulse, I meant no offence." Darkrain said with a smile.
"Besides, it's been proven that our eloquent freind does indeed know the sky is blue. That's certainly something. "

Drake pondered for a moment.

"Mr. Dalsulse, can you ask it how it intends to find his comrades?"

Darkrain approached the Inquistor and asked quietly, "If we let our little lost puppy go, do you think it would run back home?"

The Lady Inquisitor motioned for the others to follow her to well out of earshot of the Kraven Trooper before responding.

‘Hmm, now that is an interesting possibility, Mr Darkrain. No doubt the internal connection that all Kraven Capital Policemen have with their comrades and the central command relay was severed in this unit when it was captured, an obvious precaution against interrogators such as ourselves extracting vital information about the current location of each unit,’ the Lady Inquisitor mused thoughtfully.

‘We could conceivably release it back into Holy Xirnium, equipped with a small tracking device and, erm… modified so as to pose no threat to others,' the Inquisitor explained, her grin savage and yet extremely beautiful. Clearly the "modification" would involve some manner of surgery, perhaps amputation of its hands or arms. 'Once no longer in our custody perhaps the uplink will be restabilised and it can lead us unsuspectingly to the others, where we can proceed to liquidate the terrorist cell in its entirety. Alternatively, perhaps it has an emergency regroup location it will go to, where the others will meet with it.’

‘What are your thoughts, Lieutenant?’ Lady Aleia asked the Novan Black Skull Enforcer.

Shrugging Noncomiitedly Dalsulse turns fully to face the pair,"Modifying his mind to make him incapable of violence could work, the hard part would also be undoing enough of his programming while leaving enough intact for him to follow orders yet not injure anyone, A Tracking device wouldn't be needed, through suitable modification his mind itself can be used to transmit, however I make no promises, I have only heard of such a feat done never done it myself, the technique is extremly advanced, though do have a care Inquisitor I have encountered Capitol Police before, this ones programming is different, more free thinking, it worries me"

Turning his head back to take a cursory look at the Kraven Trooper, "I beleive however we'll end up meeting with the rest of his team sonner than we think, they are in this city and somewhere relativley close as well, I've taken the liberty of informing Commodore Delmuzan but the chances of him dispatching a force out in time to get here in time for anything but mopping up are slim, and he specialises in rapid deployment or so i've been told," Shrugging again he takes a large drink from the mug of hot chocolate before offering one to the newcomer, the Inquisitors was still on the desk next to the Kraven Trooper.

‘At the very least we should insert some manner of explosive into the Kraven trooper so that we can terminate it if anything goes wrong, a small amount situated near the brain stem should be more then adequate,’ explained the Lady Inquisitor.

Watching the other two take their mugs of hot chocolate Lady Aleia turned and picked up her own. She frowned as she looked carefully at its contents, showing the typical Xirniumite suspicious of any drink that does not contain some portion of alcohol. Not wishing to offend the Novan Black Skull Enforcer, however, she took a long sip, smiling warmly. It was actually quite good.

‘You’ll forgive me, Lieutenant Dalsulse,’ the Lady Inquisitor continued, ‘but I’m a little sceptical about your mind alteration techniques. Of course, I don’t doubt that you are more then capable,' she added quikcly, 'but I think it would be ill advised to place all our eggs in one basket. Attempt your procedure, if you like, but I would still feel more comfortable if we include a more... reliable fallback measure, a tracking device, which can report the location of the Kraven filth.’

Darkrain shuddered and his insides grew cold. Mind alteration was a nasty trick. While independence was always part of the Fourhearts national character, for someone as distrusting as Darkrain, messing with the mind was a sin against nature and bothered him quite a bit. However, Darkrain knew how to keep cool and you'd have to be a mindreader to guess Darkrain's feelings.

Darkrain shook his head, "Well that takes care of that."

‘Indeed it does,’ replied Lady Aleia bitterly, returning the half empty mug to the table. She had suddenly lost her interest in it. ‘I think our interview with this filth is over, the Courts can have him now.’

‘Unfortunately, this leaves us fresh out of leads. I’ve increased the police presence in this city tenfold and even got round-the-clock helicopter patrols but, apart from waiting to make their next mistake there is not much we can do. Unless any of you have suggestions?’

The Lady Inquisitor didn't seem hopeful, the fact was that it was a big city and the terrorists could be anywhere. Sooner or later, though, the Kraven scum would slip up, the sheer number of people looking for them made that inevitable. Once exposed, they would be ruthlessly liquidated.

‘Sounds like a load of rubbish to me,’ remarked Acting Director Etham, of the Xirniumite Security Service, as he quietly entered the room unannounced. The XSS Director had heard of the Inquisition’s latest “coup”, and come to see the Wolfbrigadesman for himself. Having just entered the building from the horrible rain outside, Etham’s overcoat collar was turned up against the cold, and he held a lit cigarette in his right hand.

‘If you think we are going to allow one of these captured demons back out to prey on innocent Xirniumites then you are sorely mistaken. You’ll forgive me, Lieutenant Dalsulse, but I trust your “mind alteration techniques” even less then I trust the “arcane lore” of the Inquisition. That filth in shackles over there is going straight to the gallows, where the rest of his cowardly friends will end up,’ explained Etham.

‘Acting Director…’ Lady Aleia began, forcing herself not to lose patience.

‘And I’ve had just about enough of you too, Lady Inquisitor. Your investigation into these terrorists has proven to be a total farce. It has been several days and still you haven’t got any leads, nothing to show for yourself!’ the XSS Director snarled, his voice rising to a shout.

Lady Inquisitor Aleia was unimpressed with the Acting Director’s assessment of her work. It was not true that nothing had been achieved. Already, they had captured the first terrorist, and determined the city where they were located. All exits and entries into the area were now blocked off by the law enforcement authorities, and the Kraven filth were cornered like rats. The police and counter-terrorism presence had been increased in the area tenfold, and it was only a matter of time before the Wolfbrigades detachment was found and liquidated. All this the Lady Inquisitor planned to tell Acting Director Etham… but she stopped herself.

In a flash of calculation, Lady Aleia realised that they had all missed something critical. ‘Lieutenant Dalsulse, Mr Darkrain, please come with me,’ she asked, quickly exiting the room in a swish of her cloak. The Acting Director yelled something after them, but she ignored him.

Outside, it was still early morning, barely an hour after the latest murder. Sleet came down in torrential quantities, instantly drenching the group, but it was unimportant. ‘We’ll all take my car,’ explained the Lady Inquisitor. The Inquisitor drove quickly to the location, and would be there in minutes, at the same moment calling numerous individuals on her secure cellular telephone.

‘City morgue? Yes, this is Lady Inquisitor Aleia, I need to see the cadavers that I requested. Of course I mean immediately. I don’t care, wake the Coroner up then. Thankyou,’ the Lady Inquisitor spoke, instantly dialling a new number.

‘This is Lady Inquisitor Aleia, I want all the rapid response units placed on full alert immediately. Yes, all. I also want a drastic increase in police and counter-terrorist presence in the city. Good. We believe that the terrorists are a significant number, therefore I want all vans or larger vehicles stopped and checked. Exercise extreme caution. Finally, place all electricity and utility terminals under surveillance. Just do it, please. Thankyou,’ the Inquisitor ordered, returning the phone to the folds of her cloak.

‘We should be at the scene of the latest crime momentarily,’ the Lady Inquisitor explained, for the benefit of the others in the car.

Fixing the Foolish Director with an Icy Stare before smirking at the trooper who drops back down into his chair with a sigh as he mentally breaks his own programming, of course the director would not know, and when the trooper got his act together perhaps we would think twice of doubting a Black Skull Enforcer again.

When the Inquisitor Mentioned Car his train of thought was derailed for only the merest of seconds, Car? Before recalling the Novan word for it, yes a Car, similar to an ATEJ, but for civilian use, usually a cause of heavy pollution, sliding in reflecting on where he was before turning his attention back to the situation at hand, why on earth would they need cars in well planned cities was his final thought on the matter.

He could sense a heightened presence, Delmuzan’s forces were nearby indeed thinking to himself, the inquisitor is right trapped like rats is all too literal here, it is a pity they will die, they could have had some use, that other one was a gold mine of information until that fool came barging in.

“Yes indeed, if the subject was stored in the correct fashion I could glean an important fact from her mind, it takes time for a brain to truly die,” finishing enigmatically as the warmth from the air abruptly vanishes, whoever said dead men tell no tales had never encountered a Black Skull Enforcer, and the dead could tell a fair few tales…..

After a few moments the trio had returned to the scene of the crime, now swarming with police constables and their vehicles. Forensics teams were busy at work collecting valuable data from the deceased, and a covering had been erected over the corpse to preserve the evidence from the driving rain.

‘Report,’ demanded the Lady Inquisitor tersely, stepping gingerly over the police tape as she approached the murder victim.

‘As per your orders, my Lady, we have cordoned off the area and began canvassing local residents to find out if they heard anything,’ explained the officer quickly.

‘Who is he?’ asked Lady Aleia, gesturing to the murdered individual, grotesquely nailed to the wall like some kind of trophy.

‘Err,’ the Detective Chief Inspector hesitated, leafing through his notebook. ‘Graham Neine, aged 23. Worked at Cymex Technical Industries, a small manfactury.’

‘Why him?' the Inquisitor mused, rapidly processing scenarios. ‘What where his final movements?’

‘We asked around, my Lady,’ explained the police officer. ‘Apparently he had just come from a nearby Cinema.’

A cinema... is that significant? wondered the Lady Inquisitor. ‘Standard Inquisitorial procedure in these types of scenarios is to expect recidivism against similar individuals and in similar situations,’ explained the Lady Inquisitor as she removed her cellular telephone from the folds of her cloak. ‘Given the nature of this crime, I also calculate an increased probability of the next strike being against a more public civilian target.’

‘Such an attack would greatly expose the terrorists, my Lady, allowing us to destroy them,’ argued the Detective Chief Inspector.

‘Precisely,’ agreed the Lady Inquisitor, as she finished entering the number and waited for the telephone to ring. ‘This is Lady Aleia. I want significant counter-terrorist presence at all cinemas in the area and at all possible major civilian target. Make sure the counter-terrorists are unseen, and maintain the highest alert for the time being.’
