"Thank you, Kith. Now then, since no one has any questions, there is a buffet style meal in the other room--show your party membership cards and you will recieve a plate." Stalin said.
He stepped down from the platform and ate dinner with the fellow party members, schmoozing and getting good photo oppurtunities. He signed a few autographs, shook the hands of some high-school students and their children, then left for Beijing, feeling quite good about how it went.
Now it was time to adress his concerns to Lady Violet. He arrived at her office but found there were people already there, so he politely sat back and waited, since he was in a good mood.

I wake up in a hospital in Capital City. I thought that I had died. I remembered it. Going to Mexico, running from Red Infinity, being eaten...alive by Kith.
This does not make sense at all. Why am I here? Why do I feel so weak?
I get up out of my bed and walk around the room. My body..it is different. These hands aren't mine...and my hair...it's black?
I go to a mirror and look at the reflection in horror.
"Who am I?"

Dr. Murdock teleports into the room Ai is hiding in. It wasn't hard. Finding anyone is remarkably easy when the possibility of fame dazzles people. People will tell you whatever you want if they think that they will be famous.
She recieves the news that Olga is dead via telepathy. Fantastic. That lovely ninja fellow should be the next leader. He had charisma, and he was willing to do whatever she wanted. Those are two things that are greatly apreciated when assisting the party. She would have to watch Kolov more closely now. Due to the purging of Morton and that ex-LIFer Hera, he is a liability.
Ai appears to be sleeping. She walks over silently and wispers gently in Ai's ear.
"Hello Ai."

I notice that Stalin is at the door.
"You may as well come in as well, Stalin. I am not that busy and my business with the feminists is nearly done."

"Thank you, Lady Violet." Stalin said, squeezing his way into the door and standing to the left of Ms. Wolf.

I am startled by the person in my room, but relieved that it is only Dr. Murdock.
I pull my blanket up to my neck and turn to the Minister of Information.
"Dr. Murdock, so good to see you. Would you believe that Red Infinity wants to purge me? I have been quietly working beside Lin-Sat for several months. I am hardly a threat to Red Infinity."

"What have you come to discuss, Stalin?"

Dr. Murdock doesn't say anything. She just smiles. The lighting in the room is dim, but the small amount of light that leaks through the blinds from the window reflects off of her glasses, so that her glasses almost glow.
"I've missed you. I haven't seen you in so long."

"I really need to leave the International HQ more. I've missed you too, Dr. Murdock."
I rub my eyes and throw on a thick robe. The room is so dark and chill. I reach for the lamp to turn it on, but accidentally knock it over. It shatters on the floor...

I wake up, feeling wonderfully refreshed. Sleeping next to Bassarov may not be as good as sleeping with him, but it's still good. I get dressed and begin making breakfast. I make omlettes, one of the few foods I can cook well, vegetarian for Bassarov and normal for myself.

"It was very nice meeting you Lady Violet. Have a nice day," BB says politely before excusing herself.
After getting far enough away from International HQ, BB lets out a sigh of relief.
"Holy nuts, that was tough. Oh well, mission partially accomplished."

Stalin waits for the feminists to leave then sits down before Lady Violet's desk.
"I wanted to let you know that I gave my lecture on Communism and it went over very well." Stalin said, pulling out a cigarette. "You don't mind, do you?"

I watch the feminists leave and turn to Stalin.
"Yes, that was very nice of you to teach some classes on communism. Many people in Red Infinity need to brush up."

"Oh dear, what a mess. You should relax. Hmm..." Dr. Murdock says softly, still smiling. She looks disdainfully at the glass, and teleports so that she is right behind Ai.
"How about I run a bath for you? I always find baths relaxing."

"Yes, baths are nice, but really, I don't want to trouble you Dr. Murdock. It is late."
I take shallow breaths. I feel hungry for air. I feel so anxious that my throat seems to be drying up and closing.
