*Above Texas*
"Modest? Shit you tell me, you seem to know just about everything anyway, don't ya." Barret said glaring at him. He turned back away from him again however after a short while.
"I don't need your dirty money or pardon. I'm only doing this because I've been compromised and I need you dirt bags off my case. There's nothing more to it than that."

*Joker* "Yeah, we're calling the Vatican" the man said handing the ID back to Joker. "Stay here, it may take a bit."
*twenty minutes later* The man returned and said "We'll let you in, but not all of you, only three people can come, the others need to stay out here and wait. Pick your people and let me know when you're done, I'll escort you inside."
*Above Texas* The man smirked again "We found you once, we can do it again my friend, if we really wanted to, we could force you to help then throw you right in the slammer afterwards now couldn't we." He stood up and began to move back to his seat "I'd tell you to think it over but you already made up your mind, just know, we" he stopped to correct himself "I'm always watching you." He moved back to his seat three rows up and sat down.

*Joker*
The man nodded. "Queen, King you are with me. Jack, Ace you are to check the parameters and see how badly they need our help."
They nodded, and left while King and Queen stepped up by Joker. "We are ready."

Havvok looked down at the body in his hands as he stood on the roof of a D.C. house. "Hmm. To bad. This one was pretty. If I weren't so hungry, I'd use her as bait." He dove teeth first into the cadaver, generating a blood-curdling sound.

Barret resisted the urge to pull out a sidearm and shoot him in the back of the head. He allowed himself to kick back on the plane and possibly try to relax for the rest of this flight. He was certain they wouldn't double cross him and put him in jail. No, if they wanted him eliminated afterwards they wouldn't do it legally...He wasn't about to go into this situation without an escape plan though. He'd get away.

"I've never been born," she answered smoothly, in a manner that, despite the claim, made it clear she wouldn't have even made a lie detector tick with it.

*Decorated Office* The Vice President chuckled "You have a sharp wit young lady, but I think you know how serious this is. Your quickness to spot things on a battlefield would make you a valuable ally, allow me to clarify" He stood, leaning up against the wall to the far right. "The President is going to be assassinated in the next 24 hours, if they assassinate him, it will have major repercussions on our government, it will make us seem weak...on top of that, I believe they're after me as well, if the both of us were killed... I'm not sure what would happen."
He kicked himself off the wall and continued "Now, If you refuse to help us, we'll detain you, that's the first thing, I have no clue what will happen after that, it's up to the CIA, whatever it is I'm sure it won't be legal. If you help us, we'll let you go and erase all evidence of you being here." He put his hand on his heart and added "Even if you fail."
*Oustide* "Target sighted." Said a man peering through a pair of binoculars "He's eating someone should I stop him or keep track of him?" He paused for a moment, the short rock wall he peered over made him difficult to spot by Havvok, but to those behind him it made him look to be a bit of a moron. "Rodger sir, continuing tracking as instructed." He stayed where he was and kept watching Havvok.
*Joker and them* "Alright, follow me." He stopped abruptly before entering the premises " Make sure you have no weapons, leave 'em because if the searchers find them, you'll be questioned." He knew that would be the least of their worries.

Her father would have been proud of her, how calm she remained while "captured" by the "enemy."
"If both of you were killed, the role of presidential succession would fall to the next in line," she answered, but didn't address the threat of the second part. Her countenance, however, suggested that for whatever reason, it was of little consequence to her. Perhaps she had already made up her mind, or perhaps she simply knew they couldn't successfully do so.

*Joker*
There was a small nod. "Allright... You better bring a crate for King though." He pulled out the whip and two pistols. Queen removed her weapons, but King waited.

*Decorated office* "I know that" Said the Vice President, "I'm worried about what that would mean for our enemies, if some rouge group could pull a stunt like that off, imagine what a whole nation would think they could do!" He attempted to look her in the eye and approached her slowly, "But you already knew that didn't you? You seem to be well versed in politics and no doubt understood this concept."
*Joker* "Why doesn't 'King' just stay here, with that type of equipment he shouldn't even be around here. " He waved his arms in protest, a figure on top of the White House ducked down.

"With all due respect, Mr. Vice President," she said with complete politeness, not shying away in the least from his approach, still standing like a proper young lady, "it is not a difficult concept. It is one children often suffer from when their surroundings shift suddenly, such as from a move or, a more direct comparison, a death in the family. They feel lost and confused, fearful of what else might come. Of course," she offered, "this is far more complex a situation for an entire nation, but yes, I believe the concept is comparable."

*Joker*
Joker sighed. "You should probably look at your man again, tell him to check his chest." He pointed over to Ace, who had a bead on the man.
King grumbled and started to empty himself of weapons. The pile kept growing, up to the point that when he finished with it it was almost knee high. He stretched. "Man.. I feel really light now. I feel like I am not wearing anything. Can't I keep just one of them with me?"

*Joker* "You might want to check your man as well.." There were six red dots, all on Ace's forehead. all but one were coming from an unseen source. "I said NO WEAPONS." He frowned at King and signaled them to follow him as he walked inside
After a seemingly endless series of weapon checks, they were in the White House's waiting room, just as they were instructed to sit down, the man with a wooden sword was just finishing preparing his cup of coffee and took a sip, claiming "Not the best part of waking up, but still good!" He turned around to see Joker, Ace, and Queen being seated. "Well well well!" He began "Who do we have here? Why do you seek an audience with the President?"
*Decorated office* The Vice President coughed a bit, then continued "See, the thing is.. I don;t think I even have to coerce you into joining the bodyguard program, I think that you'll end up helping anyway, what do you think Miss Stureisk?"

"I think I despise conflict and being made to hurt others," she answered honestly and without the slightest hint of snideness.

*Decorated Office* "Ah but that's not what I said, I said be a bodyguard. You don't have to fight, but you may have to to ensure your own safety, you could save the president by taking a bullet for him too you know!"
