"You should really join our group then, if I ever get out of here. I'm really the only woman there, it would be nice to have another."

I see the battleship and wave. I don't think he can see me.
"God bless America!"
"So where was I, Helene?"

As you wave the ship is briefly hidden by a sheet of flame as the deck guns fire a salute. The reverberating blast of half a ton of gunpowder detonating reaches you several seconds later.

"I would love to join... If we ever get out of here... Maybe we can start up a cell inside the cell. hah hah..." Even if I wasn't so weak, I wouldn't have laughed at that.
"I was looking for your organization just before I got captured actually."

"I'd love to have you join. Consider yourself a member. I'll get you the card as soon as I can, but right now, I think I'm going to meditate for awhile. I'll figure a way to get us out of here."
Simona closes her eyes, and focuses her mind on a plan.

"Thank you Simona... I think I'll... Meditate... as well..."
I close my eyes and fall unconscious.

When Ki-Lin leaves I complete more paper work and await news from Mr. Moroii about the peacetalks.
At least LIF has been dead as of late.

"Why don't we show the world what we can do yet again?" I ask no one in perticular. I am on the bridge of my ship, and I now plan to make my presence known. "Target the LIF base that we were tipped off about and fire at will..."
About five minutes later a retrofitted SLBM launcher fires it's deadly payload, a Trident-III ballistic missile loaded with a single 300-kiloton thermonuclear warhead. Every single launch detector in the Weastern hemishpere instantly sees the rocket begin it's flight.
17 minutes to impact.

I stand up.
"Of course Red Infinity is in the position to ask this of us, but think of what you would say if we asked you, Red Infinity, to remove all of your influence of the world, and to cease all activity outside of Beijing. You would laugh in our face. That is how ridiculous I think this demand is. You essentially want us to dissolve all of our revolutionary activity, in exchange for a promise from an organization that stabbed us in the back several times in the past? You are out of your mind, Mr. Moroii, as is Lady Violet if she thinks we will go along with this."

Suddenly, reports flood into my office that the LIF base in California has been attacked by nuclear weapons. We have no information on this group. Our intelligence sources say that the anarchists do not have nuclear weapons, so we know it is not Antero Black, and the rebels would not pull something like this, since they are working out a peace agreement with Red Infinity. No, this is something from a source that we are not yet aware of. I make the necessary calls.
I first call Dr. Adrian at the ministry of science, he is the head nuclear physicist there. I tell him that I want him to up our nuclear weapons program at once. If someone is attacking LIF, we are sure to be next on their hit list.
I then call our agent Mark who is supposed to be spying on the capitalists. I tell him to go to Dinari Dollar, stay with him, and report any suspicious activity. I then make a call to prime minister Lin-Sat.
"Mister Lin-Sat, there is a nuclear weapon in the air as we speak."

"Mischa, I'm not selling us out to Red Infinity. I just think that a cease fire for the short term would be helpful to both groups. But let's see what the other rebels have to say."
Bassarov turns to the other rebels at the table, and those just now coming in.
"I want to hear what each of you has to say about a short term peace with Red Infinity."

Now sixteen minutes into the missile's flight it is clear that the warhead will not reach China, as it is targeted at a small LIF base in California. It's last minute of temporal existance is spent as a bright shooting star which explodes a mere 1,000 feet off the ground, enveloping everything in a 5,000 foot radius in a ball of atomic fire. The resulting mushroom cloud rises to an altitude of 100,000 feet and is seen by everyone within 1,500 miles.
A moment later a call is placed to Red Infinity...

I report to the ministry of terror after completing my mission to capture Simona. She'll be put through trial, and then if found guilty, which is the most likely scenario, she will be put to death. She seems like a kind enough woman, it is always tragic to take the lives of people such as this.
+++++++++++++
After some paper work, I leave my office late, and head home. I see that all of the damage done by Genovia was fixed by St. Celeste. But St. Celeste is in my room crying.
+++++++++++++
I go to my bedroom, I put my arm around her, and in a soft voice I say "I'm sorry I couldn't get back here sooner, I had an important mission in Capital City. But I'm here now, so please don't cry."

I get a call from one of my fellow CEO's who was on vacation in California.
"Alex! You're not going to believe this... A nuclear weapon went off in northern California! They're not after US, are they??"
"Settle down Thomas, I doubt it... Although why would they attack northern California, there's nothing there... Or wait... I'll call you back later." I hang up.
I run to Dinari.
"I'm beginning to like this general of ours!"

I get out of the pool and put a towel around my waist.
"Don't mess with the U.S.!"
"We should just get drunk-ass drunk to celebrate!"
