*One Week Prior to Niihama Negotiations with the Taiyou*
In one of the corporate buildings the board of Sullen Enterprises was gathering. The meeting was unexpected most of the members had their hands full with trying to deal with a financial crisis and attempting to reign in the chaos caused by the Taiyou efforts to make a blow to the SEC. And to further the turmoil President Holiday had authorized the war on the Cybrans. Many were skeptical of her decision but they all knew war is what would drive their profits.

President Holdiay stood before the board, her normal demeanor was changed she looked taken a back and a bit tired the transition to leadership was still weighing heavily upon her.
"I'm sorry to call you here on such short notice, but due to recent developments I feel this is of the upmost importance. There has been a recent purchase that I'm sure all of you are aware of that has constituted this meeting. Lochlyn Haley CEO of Juniper Corp. has bought the largest sum of stocks to date. I cannot tell you his intentions as I do not know normally I would suggest we make an effort to stop this but given our current status I have invited Mr. Haley here to discuss his motives first as you all know these are difficult times and I urge you all to take this into consideration. " Holiday said.

After she finished a small chuckle could be heard from the corner of the room where a Luke Sullen the former President and CEO of the company sat. Though he was imprisoned being the founder he had an entitlement to come to the corporate meeting. Beside him sat a younger version with brown eyes and dark hair and the former heir to the company Josiah Sullen.
