Chapter 11: Part 1: It's A Dog Fight.
Meanwhile, at the aerial combat competition, Grim Reaper 1 announced, "This is Lightning Speed....I got Visual confirmation of the Protector, 8 O'clock....get ready to engage....". Suddenly , without warning Grim Reaper 4 increased his speed and went ahead of the team as Lt. Troy Brionick (Widowmaker) wanted to impress his team mates by trying to defeat the Protector by himself....Saint yelled over the radio in frustration, "Widowmaker!...what the hell are you doing?...We're supposed to do this together!...as a team!....". She heard Widowmaker laughing and said, "Don't worry boys and girls, I'll bag this sucker in a few minutes time....". Garfield saw Grim Reaper 4 on his radar break ahead from the pack as he communicated to Chase on a secure radio frequency saying, "Chase, you've got Grim Reaper 4 going ahead of his team , 11 O'clock high, He's on an F-18 Hornet, he carries sidewinders....get ready to activate your flares as counter measures...". Chase glanced at his radar then looked ahead as Grim Reaper 4 closed unto him. "I got visuals on him...ok what dirt do you have on this guy?....". Garfield downloaded and quickly reviewed more of Lt. Brionick's past flight evaluations as he said, "Ok, Chase...I got it, his flight evaluations says that he is a very aggressive pilot but needs lots of improvement on his evasive techniques....Ha!...this guy's a piece of cake....very careless....poor defenses....takes lots of chances....So here's the plan....Let him chase you for awhile and let's frustrate him and when he gets closer, do a reverse loop and get behind him....".
Captain Brassman checked his system's defenses, "Primary shield at 98%....Main power at 98%....Let's rock and roll...". The Protector banked left and high as Widowmaker dove left to meet the Protector head on. As they we're about to pass each other, Widowmaker started firing his guns as several bullets hit the top of the Protector's helmet which was totally protected by his force shield. The bullets which hit him decreased his shield strength to 96%, Chase flinched for a few seconds then aimed his Laser targeting system straight at Widowmaker, his simulated laser fire lasted only three seconds, what he needed was five consecutive seconds to score a simulated kill. As they passed each other, Widowmaker did a reverse loop and started chasing the Protector. Chase slowed down his speed to let Widowmaker get closer and as Widowmaker started firing his sidewinder missiles, the Protector countered by releasing flares as the missiles zeroed into them exploding in mid-air. The Protector kept teasing Widowmaker by closing their distance then weaving, rolling and spinning as Widowmaker kept firing off his missiles and guns. But Widowmaker's F-18 fighter jet was just totally outmatched in speed and quickness which frustrated Lt. Brionick. Finally, when Widowmaker ran out of missiles, it was Chase's turn to show what the Protector can do offensively. While still being chased, the Protector quickly did a reverse loop and started to chase Widowmaker. In a matter of seconds, Chase aimed his Laser targeting system at Widowmaker but Lt Brionick was able to maneuver his fighter jet away from the threat by banking left then right. As the Protector closed in, Lt Brionick yelled on the radio saying, "I can't seem to shake him loose...this guy's amazing ...". Widowmaker instinctively did a rolling reversal which got him a little lightheaded and briefly disoriented. This gave Chase the advantage he needed as he got closer. Finally, the Protector was able to lock his Laser into Widowmaker for five consecutive seconds therefore scoring a simulated kill disqualifying Widowmaker from the aerial training exercise. "You're out'a there!....", Garfield yelled as he stood up from his computer terminal, imitating a baseball umpire's gesture. He sat back quickly to the delight of the scientists and other flight engineers who glanced at Garfield's excited reaction.
The other pilots observing and watching the duel were all dumbfounded at the skill the Protector had. Saint called out to her team saying, "Ok,...we all saw what we're up against....any suggestions?...". Hammer answered , "This is gonna be like catching a fly using chopsticks!...". Rebel quickly suggested with his thick Italian accent saying, "Then, let's not use chopsticks...let's use one of those sticky fly traps...what I mean is let's stick together and use some strategy....". Thunder Bolt sighed as he said, "Hey Rebel!...you've got to work on your analogy....your not making sense!....". Red interjected saying, "I think what he means is that we should use some strategy as a team , if we can't hit him with our missiles, let's use our guns in short range....anything to lower his shields and main power.....we can win if we all work together....". Lightning Speed then called out saying, "Just got a message from Naval Intelligence that last night, someone from Treasure Island downloaded all our data on our air to air combat maneuvering and strategy.....here's more...they also downloaded all of our personal flight evaluations from when we were aviator students until now....It's got to be Macrostrength Industries....I think Major Powers and Captain Brassman just stole our playbook boys and girls...they know our game plan and every air combat strategy we'll use. No wonder the Protector was so fast in taking down Widowmaker. Eagle Eye looked up at Lightning Speed's fighter jet as she asked, "Can they do that....obtain our personal flight evaluations?...Isn't that against Navy regulations...that's illegal....". Lightning Speed responded with exasperation saying, "Macrostrength has Top Secret clearance on all pilots, that's how they did the search and selection for the Protector pilot selection program, remember?....So what we need to do is to forget what we learned at Top Gun school....let's just ambush the Protector from all angles, he won't expect this and this will confuse him that he won't be able to focus on shooting us down....". Thunder Bolt then made a quick comment saying, " Well if that happens, don't forget to use your countermeasures....we won't win unless we take some chances...".
All the pilots agreed with the plan which was not to follow their game plan as they started parting at different directions headed towards a confrontation with the Protector. Garfield rubbed his hands as he glanced at all the scientists, technicians and engineers watching and listening at their own computer terminals. He felt as if he was a football offensive coordinator running plays in a big game. Garfield called out to Chase, "Ok, hotshot!,...one down...four to go....Go straight up 12 O'clock high....it's Grim Reaper 5....go get her.....". Suddenly before Chase could launch at a 90 degree vertical, something inside his suit compressed both his legs and feet as he asked, Hey! what are these things compressing my legs, they're really tight...". One of the scientists answered, "They're lower extremity compression devices which pushes blood away from the legs so when you go on a quick vertical. All the blood in your head won't leave your brain from extreme gravitational pull thus preventing you from loosing consciousness... ", after a slight pause, the Protector quickly went vertical closing into Eagle Eye.
Saint quickly radio'd saying, "Eagle Eye, the bandit is closing unto you....prepare for evasive maneuvers...". Eagle Eye quickly made a diving hard right to extend her distance from the Protector, but the Protector was too fast and swift as it started closing in on Eagle Eye. After a few seconds, the Protector started locking into her but she quickly rolled the spiraled as as a form of evasion, but still, the Protector kept the chase close. After a few minutes, the Protector was able to close the distance again, locking into her, but before he could activate his Laser targeting system for a simulated kill, a missile struck the Protector at his back as he tumbled uncontrollably through the sky. Chase shuddered as he called out, "I'm hit!...I'm hit!...", Garfield quickly inquired asking, "Chase, are you hurt?!...". Chase looked at his radar for any incoming missiles as he responded saying, " It feels like I got hit with a solid kick at the back during one of my TaeKwon do competitions...I think I'll be fine...".
The head scientist Rex Jaymailin of damage control announced saying, "It was a direct hit to the Protector's mid-back spine area....Shields down to 86%...main power at 95%....". The head of engineering , Dr. Henry Vanden quickly spoke into his headset alerting everyone as he said, "Listen up!....I'm getting readings of damage to the exoskeletal mechanical spine....located at lumbar four and five...I'm also sensing a leak to the double "A", main pressure control hose....we are bleeding ladies and gentlemen....". Damage control's Dr. Jaymailin quickly replied saying, " I'm sending one of the SPIDERRS to assess the exoskeletal's lumbar fracture....maybe we can stabilize and splint it....We don't want any metallic vertebral fragments to cut into Captain Brassman's flesh....I'm also sending the other SPIDERRS to try and seal the leak on the double A drive's pressure control hose....Hopefully, we can get normal pressure back....". Garfield didn't understand most of what's being said but he knew that the Protector's exoskeletal system was similar to the human body with electronics serving as nerves, metallic braces as the skeletal system and hydraulic fluid serving as blood, and this he quickly explained to Chase to alleviate Chase's anxiety.
(Note: The Protector's Exoskeletal system is made up of two hydraulic drives which are compared to having two human hearts. The double A hydraulic drive powers the exoskeletal system from the waist up and the double B hydraulic drive powers all exoskeletal system from the waist down. Each hydraulic drive can also power the whole skeletal system with half the power if one of them breaks down or is damaged. It's like having two human hearts where one will compensate for the other if the other gets a heart attack.
Inside a hydraulic drive are hydraulic regulators which regulates the amount of hydraulic fluid and pressure needed to perfuse the exoskeletal system [Too much hydraulic fluid can cause an aneurysm which is weakness to the hose carrying the hydraulic fluid therefore causing a ballooning which can eventually burst and stop hydraulic fluid supply to the smaller and thinner hydraulic fluid hoses which supplies the various limbs for movement thus causing a total loss of function of that limb. In humans, it's compared to being paralyzed from a stroke from high blood pressure. {SO FOR ALL HUMANS WITH A BLOOD PRESSURE OF 140/90 OR GREATER, SEE YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE YOU GET A HEART ATTACK OR STROKE. }. Meanwhile, less than sufficient hydraulic fluid levels can cause limb tremors, uncoordination and can make limb movement slow, heavy and sluggish. It can also cause overheating and damage to both rotary and linear actuators which is compared to driving a car without any engine oil and radiator fluid.
Then, there's the hydraulic pump which pushes the hydraulic fluid to the system. This is compared to the ventricles of the heart which pushes blood throughout the human body. Finally, there's the Pressure Control Hose which is like the heart's aorta, this is the main hose where the hydraulic fluid travels and divides into multiple peripheral pressure hose systems. These are like smaller arteries which perfuses the exoskeletal limbs. They also provide hydraulic fluid to all rotary hydraulic actuators which are smaller drives that give power to joint torques, they are compared to a human's shoulder, elbow, wrist, fingers, knees and ankle joints. Aside from this, there are also Linear Hydraulic Actuators which corresponds to the physiological structures of the pilot's human muscles.
Power and energy to the Protector comes from solar panels from it's helmet. Some of the solar energy are stored into the Hydraulic power pack which is like a re-chargeable battery system used as back-up energy used during night missions. Most of the solar energy harnessed through the helmet's solar panels are directed to it's main Electro mechanical converter system which transforms solar power into electric power.).
Garfield quickly looked towards Dr. Vanden who seemed rattled as he was trying to download more data from the computer as he asked, "Can someone tell me what's he talking about?....". Dr. Castle who was second in command behind Dr. Spain who was supervising and pacing the main floor stared at Garfield and spoke into his headset replying, "Major Powers,...the exoskeletal's spine has a fracture at the mid-back at L4-L5 area which can cause weakness to it's lower extremities. This might prevent him from walking or running if he has to land....The leak they're talking about is the upper main pressure control hose, right now it's leaking hydraulic fluid which is needed to provide strength and movement to the upper exoskeletal frame area above the waist....Without the right amount and pressure of hydraulic fluid, the Protector's movements will be slow and sluggish.....". Garfield glanced at him with a concerned look as he asked, "Chase, did you hear that?...Chase looked away from his radar for a minute as he scanned the skies for more incoming missiles as he responded , "Got it!...loud and clear...".
Garfield turned towards the scientists and asked, "Is this leak critical?....". Dr. Spain cleared his throat then responded saying, "For human's yes!...because we only have one heart....but with the Protector, we designed it to have two hydraulic drives which is like having two human hearts working at the same time. One hydraulic drive can compensate for the other if damaged....". Dr. Jaymailin (Head of Damage Control) announced, " Ok,...I have one of the SPIDERRS working on fixing the lumbar fracture as we speak and another SPIDERRS is presently trying to provide a seal to the pressure control hose leak.....and whichever finishes first, we really need to have one of the SPIDERRS do a diagnostic check-up to the hydraulic drives, regulators and pumps..just to be on the safe side...". Dr. Spain walked calmly but with his hands clenched behind his back as he thought deeply, he then looked to Dr. Jaymailin (Damage Control) then gave orders saying, "Ok, Rex...you have ten minutes to fix the leak, and if we're not able to seal the pressure hose, prepare to shut off the double A hydraulic drive and prepare to divert all hydraulic fluid to the double B hydraulic drive and have it power both upper and lower exo-skeletal systems....even though we have only half the power, as long as we're up flying, we'll be fine. We can't afford to loose too much hydraulic fluid at this time.".
Garfield turned back at his computer then stared at his radar as he wondered why this problem never occurred during the the rescue mission in the Philippines, then he realized that the Protector was only dealing with guns and a few world war 2 type bazookas, but now it's different, the Protector is being asked to absorb missiles which has a fire power 1,000 times greater. He then focused on what strategy these pilots were employing since he did not anticipate that missile hit to the Protector. As soon as the Protector was able to stabilize himself, he hovered in the air for a few seconds to clear his head and get his senses back in order, when suddenly another missile shot by him as he was able to duck at the last second, but a split second later another missile hits him as it exploded in front of him, hitting him at his right shoulder and sending him spinning uncontrollably through the air. The four fighter jets swarmed around him from every angle. Dr. Jaymailin (Damage Control ) reports, "I'm getting reports of severe damage to the right shoulder torque and actuator, we have a small flash fire to the right scapular motor drive circuits, I'm re-routing one of the SPIDERRS to contain the small flames before it penetrates Captain Brassman's fire retardant inner suit.....Shields down to 77%..main power...is at 88% and holding...". Dr. Forteza yelled, " I need more power to the shields or there'll be bigger damage to the Protector and Captain Brassman if he gets hit again!...". Dr. Spain quickly ordered saying, "Transfer 5% of the main power to the shields....now!....". Dr. Jaymailin leaned back in his chair as he grabbed the hair at the back of his head as he announced, " Shields back to 92% but main power down to 88% and holding...".Garfield called out quickly yelling, "Chase!, are you ok?!....". Chase stabilized the Protector in the air while watching his radar as he responded, "I feel like I have a really bad sunburn up the right side of my neck and down to my shoulder....I feel a little dizzy and....and...I can't seem to move my right shoulder and upper arm....". Dr. Jaymailin wiped the sweat on his forehead as he answered, "Captain Brassman, your right shoulder's hydraulic rotary actuator is severely damaged....the mechanical joint that makes you move your arm is broken and locked....that's why you can't move your right arm.....". Flight Surgeon Sherry Jonick quickly inquired, "Can we have one of the SPIDERRS do a quick brain scan to check him for a concussion?...". A few scientists stared at her with disdain as one of the engineers quickly answered, "You must be kidding me!....We've got multiple damage on hand...a fractured vertebrae that still needs to be properly fixed,...a leak to the hydraulic A drive, we're loosing juice, we have an uncontained flash of fire to the right circuits which could also destroy the right carotid infra red sensor relays which can cut off circuitry to the entire system and you're worried about a stupid head bump?....". Dr. Jonick started arguing her case with the other scientists on the importance of protecting the pilot's health and well being but was interrupted by Dr. Spain as he prevented the argument from escalating. He then reminded everyone to focus and prioritize the problem, to work as a team. Dr. Jonick asked, "How does your head, arm and shoulder feel?....". Chase rubbed his neck with his left hand as he answered, "The dizziness stopped but I'm still sore at my right shoulder and mid-back....and It feels weird that I can't move my right arm at all....". Garfield spoke trying to re-assure Chase as he said, " Don't worry Chase....we'll send one of the SPIDERRS to fix your right shoulder and stabilize your back as soon as they've completely contained the flash flame to your shoulder and repaired the hydraulic leak....hang in there buddy....". Chase answered back with a worried tone saying, "Yeah?....well, they better hurry up....my inner shirt is soaked with hydraulic fluid, I hope this mechanical suit doesn't bleed to death while I'm 30,000 feet up in the air....". Garfield smiled nervously as he responded saying, "Don't worry Chase, we're on top of your suit's telemetry readings, scientists and engineers here already have contingency plans in place...just in case.....Just focus on trying not to get hit again.....". Chase looked around on his visor as he responded, "Roger that!....".
Part 2: The Standoff:
CURE Corp. Building, San Francisco, California.....
Ensign Wright nervously looked at his wrist watch then announced, "We've got 45minutes left before North Korea launches it's nukes!...". Admiral Rivera turned off the T.V. knowing that time now is critical with the nuke countdown and the uncertainty of the U.S. President's safety at risk when suddenly cell phones started ringing again one after another. Admiral Rivera scanned the conference room as he saw nothing but nervous expressions as everyone was receiving more information about the state of the President's safety and health condition, but as he glanced at CIA Assistant Director Lawrence Villes, he was perplexed that he was smiling and way more relaxed while speaking into his cell phone which was unusual given the time pressure surrounding the North Korean nuclear missile crisis and the assassination attempt at the U.S. President. He walked over to General Cassidy Cheung and ordered him to have Agent Lawrence Villes investigated, his cell phone tapped and all of his calls traced, something was not right about Mr. Villes demeanor at this stressfull time of crisis. General Cheung quickly dialed the Army's office of Intelligence Affairs and the FBI.
Master Chief Cardenas suddenly stood up with a frightened expression while holding his cell phone to his ear as he shouted, "They shot the Vice-President....he's dead!....". Dean Johnson stood up and said, "What do you mean his dead?....". Everyone paused in shock except Mr. Villes who glanced at the group for a moment then continued talking in his phone without any hint of surprise and as if he expected to hear this news. After a couple of minutes, he ended his phone call and cautiously sat back down trying to act concerned and surprised as Admiral Rivera stared at him with suspiscion. Master Chief Cardenas explained,
"The Vice-President was on a hunting trip with his secret service men....they said one of his agents shot him on the head!....". Everyone looked stunned as the conference room got very quiet.
Admiral Rivera speed dialed his brother Raul Rivera who was a high ranking NSA agent for more information. His brother told him that the Secret Service Agency which were supposed to protect high ranking U.S. officials under threat were infiltrated by assassins. He was told that NSA and FBI agents have just recently arrested the top Director of the Secret Service Agency and that he confessed that he was an Active member of the White Aryan Nationalist Movement and was a part of their special forces called, "The Twelve Disciples of Timothy McVeigh", who each were given the call names of Jesus Christ's apostles. The call name for the Secret Service Director was, "St. James". He was then told that there were eleven other Aryan infiltrators who worked at top positions in the U.S. government and are planning to help Al Queda bring in and detonate a nuclear bomb in the United States. The FBI also learned that another goal of the Aryan movement was to seat another Timothy McVeigh disciple as President of the United States, this Aryan who is currently a cabinet member. Assassins will assassinate everyone ranked above him starting with the U.S. President, the Vice-President and cabinet members ranked higher than the McVeigh disciple in order to sit the Aryan cabinet member as the acting U.S. President therefore gaining full control of the country. They also learned that the Secret Service Director accepted assassins of the Aryan movement and made them Secret Service Agents as early as three years ago.
Admiral Rivera then asked his brother to investigate if the CIA had any connections with the planned assassination of the President and or if CIA Assistant Direstor Lawrence Villes was one of the twelve disciples of Timothy McVeigh. After ending his conversation with his brother, he announce to everyone in the confernce room that there were assassins out to kill the top U.S. cabinet members together with the President and Vice President. Admiral Rivera did not mention that he knew that one cabinet member was a Timothy McVeigh disciple because there was a chance that U.S. Secretary of Defense Dean Johnson could be that disciple, plus there was also a chance that there could be a traitor in their midst. "Could Agent Lawrence Villes also be a Timothy McVeigh disciple?....", he wondered to himself. Then he realized that first things's first, he needs to stay in control of the situation, specially with Director Johnson's insistence on taking control of the sensitive and fragile North Korean nuclear arms crisis. "This could be part of the Aryan movement's plan...to create chaos from a nuclear war in Asia, use it as a smoke screen while they create anarchy in this country by killing it's leaders and finally sitting an Aryan as the U.S. President....", he thought to himself.
Meanwhile, Secretary Johnson was also in deep thought when he suddenly stood up in panic saying,
"If they're killing top U.S. officials....then they might come after me.....Oh!...Shoot!....". He started panicking with a childish fearfull demeanor as he started calling out yelling, "Help me!...someone please help me....I don't wanna die....It's all my father's fault!...he pushed me into this job....", tears suddenly dropped uncontrollably from his eyes as he was unconsolable, grabbing people's shirt and ties until Admiral Rivera approached him and slapped his face which brought him back to his senses. "Calm down will you!...stop acting like a little child!....we'll protect you....". Admiral Rivera reassured the Secretary of Defense, but then wondered if Secretary Johnson was just acting and pretending to be scared, trying to keep his Aryan identity of being a McVeigh disciple a secret. He then ordered all spectators to leave the conference room including CURE corp. security personnel. Samantha quickly dialed her cell phone and called her company's security chief giving him and his staff orders to arrest anyone entering the building with a weapon.
Admiral Rivera glanced at Captain O'Bland as he said, "Captain, how many military police escorts do we have on our convoy this morning?....". Captain O'Bland thought for a moment then responded, "Sir, we have about seven guards sir....". Admiral Rivera suddenly noticed that people around him were all giggling as he tried to find out what was so funny at this time, someone pointed a finger underneath the conference table and as the Admiral looked underneath, he was surprised to see Secretary Dean Johnson hiding and lying in a fetal position shaking in fear and sobbing uncontrollably. Admiral Rivera stood up straight as he stared at the group with most of them trying not to laugh, with a serious facial expression he then looked at Captain O'Bland and said, "Captain, get all seven of your military police up here fully armed...we need to protect Secretary Johnson.....and tell them to bring extra side arms....all military personnel in this room will carry a side arm....". As soon as Captain O'Bland started to contact his men, Ensign Wright suddenly announced, "Admiral, we have 39 minutes left before they launch their nukes....". The Admiral gave him a nodd as he announced, "Right now, what we need to do is to establish who is in control of our country. Admiral Rivera reminded everyone the United States Presidential Line of Succession.
After the Admiral finished announcing the hierchy of the Presidential Line of Succession, Admiral Rivera pointed to General Cheung, ordering him to call the Pentagon to get an idea on who is the acting President of the United States. He ordered Ensign Wright to try and contact the Speaker of the House, then ordered Captain O'Bland to try and contact the Secretary of State. Suddenly, there was a loud knock from the room's emergency exit door, as Agent Villes opened the door, In came seven military police carrying M16 rifles, some of them took off their sidearms and handed it to a military officer who was not armed. General Cheung while listening to his cell phone suddenly yelled, "Quick!...turn on the T.V....", and as the T.V. turned on , everyone focused on news anchor Nancy Vanderfield who was reporting, "This just in...we've received alarming reports that the, " Vice President ", had been shot and killed while on a hunting trip....It seems that there has been a coordinated attack to to assassinate top U.S. officials to what I think is to de-stablilize our government..." Suddenly, someone handed the news anchor a piece of paper as she looks at it briefly then started reporting saying, "More breaking news....We have reports the the, "President Pro-Tempore of the Senate", has died from a gunshot wound a few minutes ago and that the ,"Secretary of Interior", had been stabbed by one of his secret service agents who was tasked to protect him, he is in the hospital and that doctors say that he is in guarded but stable condition. The FBI had arrested the assailant and is being held for questioning....They also said that the FBI has the , "Attorney General", and is being held in a safe location and was separated from his secret service agents who are all being held for questioning.....Also...I'm just getting news from my earphone that the, " Speaker of the House", is in the hospital in critical condition with a gunshot wound to the chest.....reports say that it was another secret service agent who shot him at close range but was gunned down by other secret service agents....So the main question now is....Who is running our country?.....No word on the Secretary of State....The Secretary of Treasury or the Secretary of Defense....".
While everyone was glued watching the news, the double doors to the conference room suddenly burst open as six secret service agents wearing black suits, with black ties quickly entered the room, each holding up and pointing a gun. The military police quickly engaged, pointing there rifles back at the Secret Service agents as the men in black pointed their, "Glock", pistols at the armed military men. The two groups were no more than four feet apart. The leader of the Secret Service agents who wore dark glasses stepped forward asking, "Where's the Secretary of Defense?...We're here to protect him....". The military men took two steps forward as Samantha, Admiral Rivera and the rest of the military officers stood behind the military police who were at a armed standoff with the Secret Service agents. Dean Johnson was still under the table trying not to make a sound, he knew that the shooter had to only bend down and fire at him since he was directly in the middle of the two groups who were at a standoff.
Admiral Rivera spoke up saying, "Haven't you boys heard the news...your group had been infiltrated by assassins.....there has been a coordinated attack by assassins in the Secret Service Agency to assassinate top high ranking U.S. officials....". The leader of the men in black took one step forward as he yelled, "That is a lie!....We've been together as a group for the last three years...now tell us where you are hiding the Secretary of Defense!...He might be the next leader of this country and we're here to protect him!...". Admiral Rivera started walking towards the men in in black as some of them pointed there guns at his head as he said, "A lie?....The NSA together with the FBI had already arrested your boss!...the top, Director of the Secret Service agency and he had confessed to this conspiracy...", as he stepped closer to the leader of the Secret Service agents then asked, "Should I call the NSA and I'm sure by now after injecting your boss with truth serum, he had already given a list of all assassins who are in the Secret Service...". The two men were now just two feet apart with the leader's pistol touching Admiral Rivera's forehead as he said, "Ha!...you're bluffing!...", the leader showed a fake nervous laugh then quickly cleared his throat while holding his pistol nervously. Admiral Rivera noticing this, slowly extended his right hand wiping off the sweat which had formed on the Secret Service agent's forehead. Admiral Rivera noticing this then said, "if I'm the one bluffing, then how come you're the one breaking out in cold sweat and shaking nervously...". The leader suddenly took a step back then pointed his gun to his temple as he cried out saying, "Damn you!....you'll never get me alive!...White power will prevail!!...", as he pulled his gun's trigger sending a bullet through his brain, spraying blood across the room, with some blood sprayed over Admiral Rivera's military uniform. The rest of the Secret Service Agents were stunned as they all lowered their firearms not knowing that there Secret Service leader was part of a terrorist organization. Military Police confiscated the guns of all Secret Service men, as Master Chief Cardenas took all the names of the Secret Service agents which they called in to the NSA and FBI for background checks to see if anymore of them had ties with the White Aryan Nationalistic Movement, just then, a platoon of FBI agents barged into the scene as they reached the end of the standoff...
