Arriving at the Heart of the Council, he walks in the large lobby and up to the secretary. "I need to see the council, NOW!"
-
"Im sorry sir but unless its urgent they're having a comity meeting." She replied.
-
"I don't give a fuck if theyre having tea! I need to speak with them."
-
"Shouting isnt going to help you, Mr. Hermitage." She said calmly staring back at him. A ZPAA guard arrived behind her and beckoned for Hermitage to come with him.
-
Regis sighed and followed the ZPAA guard...
-
He was led to the Council room, hal the council present and some glaring at him. "What is so blasted important, Mr. Regis?"
-
"Have you seen the reports on ZNN?" he asks them and turns on a TV thats in the room.
"... We're here are the scene where a large explosion occurred earlier today. Rumors tell us that Zarethian Intelligence Director and INTERPOL Agency Superviosr Eric Mann was in the hotel. Sources also indicate that his remain were found, but nothing has been confirmed." the reporter says.
-
A councilman nodded. "Yes, what about it?" He asked nonchalantly. "It is presumed that he is dead, though we arent certain."
Another spoke up. "If he is dead then it leaves us one less loose end." He said matter of factly.
-
He sighs... "The Hand needs a director councilmembers. This leaves us in an odd position."
-
"Well, seeing what he was accused of and that the whole of the hand was behind him...."
-
"Are you implying something councilman?" He asks.
-
"I am simply implying that because we can no longer particularly trust the late Eric Mann's word or his choices in associates, we have no choice but to follow his death with a full investigation of the Hand."
-
He sighs. "Fine, but be warned of the sever lag this will cause on the Intelligence Community." He eyed the council members.
-
Right at that moment, a ZPAA guard burst into the room (if you don't mind, Zak), escorting Yairhoff Haydenn, who had a look of pure terror on his face. He sheepishly eyed Hermitage before looking at the rest of the council, at which time, he broke out in, "Please forgive me, council members... I couldn't say anything, or he'd kill my family.... Eric Mann... He.. He was not who he said he was."
