OOC: Sorry, not feeling witty on the title... (BTW-THIS IS CLOSED TO ALL EXCEPT VITICOMA)
IC:
Esmund International Airport, International Flights Terminal
Three men sat beyond the security barrier. Each was dressed in a dark suit, and each wore a different expression. The first man, Alan Baker, wore an expression of indifference. He worked with foreign service department, and was a former soldier in the Grand Army of the Community. Like every other Regular who passes through his mandatory term in the army, this was a dream job. About 90% of the time, it required the brains that the Lord had granted to Rottweiler, but it paid more and had greater benefits than many jobs that required years of college education. And the other 10% of the time it was exciting and he got to learn all kinds of dirt on foreign ambassadors. But what helped him advance in his profession as an armed escort was his ability to keep his mouth shut.
The second man, Dean Hobbs, was worried. Had he not been wearing his jacket, sweat stains would be visible under his arms. All he knew about this was that this foreign official would be entering Siap and he was to extend all accomodations to him and to not press him for too much information. In fact, as soon as they got him settled into the foreign official's residence, he was to be brought before a Council subcommitteee. And he was to report if he observed any suspicious behavior at the airport or around the residences. And the fact that these orders came by military channels severely unsettled him.
The third man was asleep. His name was Ryan Wyatt, and he was a colonel (out of uniform) in the Siapian Army Intelligence Division. He knew that the man they were waiting for was a Viticoman politician and an anarchist. And he knew that for one reason or the next the Council Subcommittee on External Affairs saw it fit that the Viticoman anarchists should have the final say in how the country was run. Why? He didn't care. All he knew was that he could get a large promotion out of this.
All three men awaited the arrival of the politician.
