a character in “When the Lion Wakes”, as played by Vain

Description

Nathan stands at a sturdy five feet nine inches. He has a filled out frame from his time in the service, but he's not the buff body builder type. He has a lot of muscle, but he's not ripped. His skin has slightly tan tint to it, heralding his Native American decent, but his hair is blond and his eyes are deep blue from his German ancestry. Nathan is clean shaven, like all military men, and his hair is cut short within military regulations; sideburns not hanging past the middle of his ear, the back cut off at the nape of his neck, bangs not touching his eyebrows, styled and tapered to the shape of his head to give a professional look. His face is hard and regal, unblemished by any form of acne or skin irritation. That is except for the cross shaped scar on his left eye he got from grenade shrapnel. His ACH hadn't quite saved him that day. Nathan's voice has a slightly deep undertone that always makes him sound serious normally, but his experience has taught him to change that when he needs to.

Personality

Like the sound of his voice, Nathan is a serious person. He gives off an aura of determination and once his mind is set it's hard to turn him away without a good reason for it. Despite that he's good with his team and will joke around with them every once in a while to ease the stress. He always makes sure the needs of his soldiers under him are met before his own, even if that means he doesn't get to eat tonight. Nathan's soldiers look up to him and he does his best to be worthy of that respect just as they have earned his respect. That doesn't mean he's a pushover though. He can be hard when somebody screws up and he isn't hesitant to give the proper discipline when needed. However, he also gives credit where credit is do. He tries to be fair and impartial in his judgments. The other side of his personality is he's a good actor. You have to be in his line of work. He's an interrogator, but he also does clandestine work that most don't know about unless it's his team or anyone else that has access to his records.

Equipment

Nathan's equipment consists of an M4A1 Carbine with an ACOG tactical scope and a combat load of 210 rounds. He has two frag grenades, two smoke, and a flash. He carries a medic kit with him at all times just in case and is CLS certified like all soldiers are. His other equipment consists of the HIIDE. It's a multipurpose device that allows you to gather photos, finger prints, and retinal scans in one easy to use hand held device and is directly connected to the military BATS (Biometric Analysis and Tracking System). It basically works like the police system. You take in a perp, get his data, put it in the BATS, and if he's released and you book him again he pops up in the system.

History

Nathan's history is pretty bland for the most part, that is the parts that aren't classified. He's thirty-two years old and has been in the military since he was 17, yea, he was a split option. He went to basic in the summer of his junior year and AIT (Advanced Individual Training) the summer after he graduated. The course was twenty-two weeks and five days long, with Nathan graduating at the top of his class with the silver STRAT award. Nobody got the gold that time around. Afterwords he was assigned to the 300 MI Brigade and participated in Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2005. He served three deployments in Iraq before they switched to Afghanistan and served two there. All the while he was making his way up through the ranks. After he made Staff Sergeant he put in his warrant officer packet. He's currently a Chief Warrant Officer 3. The rest of his history he's not at liberty to tell and his family is a personal topic.

So begins...

 “ The cabin jolted as the AC 130 touched down on Langley’s airfield. Nathan replaced the dossier into his black suitcase and spun the combination lock before inserting and turning his key. As the plane taxied around the runway to the refueling station Nathan readied himself for his coming task. From the reports, Tahira Ali seemed to respond to direct questioning well, but he wondered how much she would reveal. Why was she talking now; to prevent the death of innocents of all things? She’d never shown any problems with killing in the past. Did her conscience catch up with her in old age, he mused. Nathan chuckled at his line of thinking. Not likely, he decided.

When the plane came to a halt the cabin door opened up. To his surprise a lieutenant colonel boarded to get him. “Chief Carter?” he asked extending a hand. “I’m Lieutenant Colonel Mahaffey, welcome to Langley Airforce Base.”

“Good to meet you, sir,” Nathan replied shaking the colonel’s hand. “I expected a different welcoming committee.” ”

 “ “You mean they’re holding her in Lee?” Nathan asked dumbfounded. “Isn’t that a bit reckless sir?”

“It’s maximum security Chief Carter. She’s under the AG’s jurisdiction now. I know how you feel, but it was all we could do to get you in there. Don’t fuck this up,” Mahaffey told him.

“I won’t, sir,” Nathan replied as Mahaffey motioned for him to exit the plane. Carter followed him down the plane’s boarding ramp that ended at a HMMWV with a single man in ACU’s in it. As they reached the vehicle the lieutenant colonel turned to Carter. “I pray for your success Chief. Give her hell,” he said as he opened the passenger side door. Nathan climbed in and shut the door, looking over at the sergeant.

“It’ll take us about an hour to get there normally. I’ll get us there in thirty,” he said giving Nathan a sly smile. ”

 “ “In a HMMWV? Not likely Sergeant. This thing won’t go over fifty five,” Nathan countered.

“Maybe not, but if I take the back street’s it’ll be faster than getting through traffic. I know what I’m doing, sir,” the sergeant responded. “Staff Sergeant Richardson by the way. Nice to meet you, sir.”

Nathan just nodded and they were on their way after Nathan tossed his gear into the back. Carter just stared out the window as the world passed by in a blur of trees, the occasional car, and a buildings. ”

 “ It was mid afternoon when the HMMWV pulled up to the security gate of Lee Penitentiary. Sergeant Richardson unzipped the driver side window and handed the guard his ID. The guard swiped it through a card reader and handed it back to the sergeant. Two more guards opened the prison gates and the HMMWV drove into the government section of the parking lot. At the same time Nathan noticed a dark blue Camry pull into the parking lot behind them. It held FBI license plates. Hmm, this doesn’t look good, Nathan thought to himself.

“Looks like someone’s trying to beat you too her,” Staff Sergeant Richardson noted, pointing to the agents vehicle.

“Well, let’s hope we can do something about it,” Nathan replied, grabbing his suitcase and stepping out of the vehicle. ”

 “ Nathan hadn’t expected the agent to speak to him. It was typical of other agencies to stick to their own business seeing as they often competed. Instead he did much the same, heading towards the door with suitcase in hand. He entered the left side of the prison’s double doors next to the agent and headed for the interrogation rooms. As he approached the door he noted an officer standing outside. Nathan approached and showed the man his ID card. “Chief Warrant Officer Nathaniel Carter. I’m with MI and have authorization to speak with detainee number 29083564,” he told the man. ”

 “ “I thought as much. I don’t want to cause an uproar, but I’m going in first. I’ve got a mission to complete Ma’am don’t allow my leisure,” Carter told the agent. It was imperative that he got in that door first. He knew how detainee’s got after being talked to about the same thing over and over. They were never very pleasant and the more you talked to them with different people the more reluctant they became to give information. Nathan hoped that getting in first would give him a better chance of getting the information he needed. And oh did they need it. ”

 “ “I’m sorry Ma’am, but I don’t have time for that. I’m not here for a screening. I’m here to conduct an interrogation and my superiors expect fast results. The longer I take the more people will die. I don’t care what you do after I’m done, but I have to get in there now,” Nathan told her, his voice cold and unemotional as always. Things were starting get out of control. He wasn’t sure if she noticed, but the longer they talked, the more the agent started to fidget. Must be something subconscious, he thought. I’m guessing she’s angry.

 No, not angry, Nathan corrected himself. Nervous? No, that’s not it either. Could she be….afraid? “Thank you Ma’am. I’ll try to be as quick as I can,” Nathan said as he began sanitizing his uniform, removing his name and rank from the Velcro of his ACU. Then he nodded to the officer at the door. The man opened the door and Nathan stepped inside to confront the woman he’d been fighting against for years. The Ace of Spades. He noted the shackles she wore, strapped to the chair and held in place. “Remove her restraints,” he told the officer.

“B-but sir,” the officer stuttered.

“I said remove them,” Nathan ordered, this time more forceful.

“Y-yes sir!” the officer said, walking across the room and undoing the woman’s shackles before leaving the room; closing the door behind him. Nathan walked over and sat down on the chair across from Tahira. “Let me begin by introducing myself. My name is Nathan,” he told her. ”

 “ "Is there a reason you won't look at me?" Nathan asked. "I would appreciate if you would look at me while we talk." Nathan looked across at Ali making eye contact. It was never good to let the detainee look around aimlessly. ”

 That explains it, Nathan thought. So that's why everyone else I've talked to looks me straight in the eyes. No respect, he almost chuckled inwardly at the revelation. "I see, that's fine then. Now, what is one organization directly subordinate to Al Ulema?" Nathan asked, going back to questioning. ”
