 “ Setting foot into the bar was a figure that seemed to carry himself like nobility of some kind. Tom Zarek was his name. His outfit was simple, a leather jacket and a pair of jeans. No one would ever suspect who he was unless they recognized his face. Making his way into the bar. The older man offered a grin, watching the patrons a moment he spoke. "Perfect opportunity to relax while I make my way to Tal'Dor." The man said as he sat at a table across from Jackal and Tyro. ”

 “ Zarek said nothing, suprised no one recognized him from the media. His face was plastered all over Aschen media, then again his leather jacket and jeans likely concealed who he was. Aschen that came to Terra were almost always in uniform. Zarek was not. Though he was very high ranking, he hid it well. "What the hell is that abomination." He said as he watched Omega for a moment. ”

 “ Zarek continued to quietly watch the happenings in the bar. Shaking his head as he watched Cuddles for a moment, shaking his head he would slowly move to stand and walk out the bar, just as a harmless looking woman in an AHSC Uniform would be seen stepping into the bar. Orange jumpsuit with a patch on the shoulder that bore a phoenix motif and read 'Battlestar Acropolis BSG-79" Her hair was done up in a ponytail, and she would pass Zarek as he left perking up. "Sire.. is that you?" ”

 “ Stepping through the pitch black alleyway outside the bar, he would ruffle his leather jacket and adjust his glasses. Stepping forward he shoved his hands in his pockets and would start towards the street. He was glad Red Halo had decided to negotiate. He would be seen across the street from the Alleyway Nikolai was standing in, an older gentleman, he was at home in these streets, there was nothing denoting rank, he was just another Aschen face, unless someone paid close attention to Aschen Media, he would go unrecognized, looking up to Nikolai he spoke. "Two boats meet in the darkness... so you're my contact?" ”

 “ The man said nothing as he stepped forward walking through the alleyway, saying nothing. Zarek showed no fear, he was in these situations thousands of times. Raphael had put him up to this because he was too frightened to go himself. Zarek didn't care, if he died tonight his movement would live on. But of course Zarek couldn't help but speak. "I was under the impression there were no weapons." ”

 “ "That's what I thought." Zarek said calmly and with a straight face. Of course Zarek was not foolish enough to come unarmed. But what Zarek had was his secret. Looking to the playground he said nothing, just walked with the mercenary. Zarek's weapon was a special transmitter, a panic button hidden in his jacket, a beam out device in-case things went sour. Coming to a stop he would look around. "Reminds me of my days as a youth." ”

 “ With that Zarek smiled. "You're not going to see a single cubit until I see the girl." He said as he kept his hands in his pockets and looked to the figure before him. "Because I have no way of knowing.. that Marlene isn't already dead, so you're not going to see a single cubit, until Marlene is safe." The man explained, still not letting anyone know who he was. "Although i'm suprised that Red Halo was so bold.. a shame.. we could have had such a healthy business relationship." ”

 “ "That's better." Zarek said plainly before looking Khariq directly in the eyes. "Your cubits.. courtesy of Raphael McGregor." He said before he withdrew a remote and pointed it to the ground, a brief flash of light would be seen and several sizable suitcases would be seen sitting on the ground before them. "There's your cubits." He said as he looked to Marlene. "Yes quite." When Marlene was close enough, he would look to Nikolai. "Now let her go." ”

 “ As soon as Marlene was close enough, a bright flash of light would engulf her and she would vanish to be transported somewhere unknown, Zarek still standing there. "There's another matter I'd like to discuss... I'm in a position to broker a deal with Red Halo, my terms are simple.. i'm willing to let bygones be bygons, this hunt is costing a lot of cubits, i'm in a position of... power over the Aschen Government... which puts me in a unique position.. to broker a deal.. now don't think I'm just some government dog.. I was in your shoes once.. I spent 20 years of my life in a penal colony for it." He said looking to Khariq. ”

 “ "Leave our Tech Con boys alone... i'll... convince our good friend Miles Hagan to lift his bounty... you'll see significantly.. less men with guns here... now Terra.. I don't really care what happens here as long as the Trinnium isn't affected." Zarek explained as he remained standing. "An alliance... with the Confederation carries with it.. certain benefits... but you and your friend need to... call a truce with the boys back in Sagittaron.. it makes work for me.. so much easier if we all get along. I'm sure you know the Confederation is in a position of.. animosity to the Coalition... I don't care about your glorious future... I have my own visions... we can make a mutually beneficial alliance... i'm sure something can be arranged with Tech Con... as for others like me.. I'm not the only one who doesn't like how Langara's run." ”

 “ Stepping into the bar was a man clad in a leather jacket and jeans. He had a rugged look about him, from his hair to his face, which was scruffy and rather in disarray. Once he stepped into the bar he would look to all the various patrons before adjusting his jacket. "So many people in here always.. such interesting.." He trailed off a moment before his gaze fell upon Tommy Davids "A new face I haven't seen before." He said before he made his way to the table Tommy was sitting at. ”

 “ "New face around here." He said as he extended his hand. "Tom Zarek." The man said as he offered a rugged smile. If Tommy was one to pay attention to any of the media in Wing City or even the general news, he could likely recognize the man as someone who was on the TV, giving speeches related to Aschen-Terran relations. ”

 “ "Someone to socialize with... I can't put a good word in for you Terrans when Parliament convenes if I don't size you up." He said before turning to the other at the table, Carrickfergus. "Sire just so happens to be the honorary title for those who serve on Parliament of the Aschen Confederation, Sire or Siress... you'd do well to respect me, I hold a lot of power in this galaxy, I'm sure Tommy here can tell you some things." ”

 “ "Romanae?" Zarek asked as he offered a slight smile. "I'm familiar with Romanae, LDA has a file on her about as thick as a Battlestar's cladding." Zarek said with a shake of a head. "Romanae doesn't so much as shit without the LDA knowing about it." He then ordered an Ambrosia, which was promptly delivered to him. Of course, Zarek was probably exaggerating, but LDA did have a file on Romanae. ”

I'll be sure to have my Marines gun for you when the troops start landing.. I'm not afraid of Romanae's husband, a rag tag band of terrorists doesn't frighten the resolve of a superpower on the scale that I serve, Romanae got her file status for a reason, you're all known terrorists." ”

 “ "I'll be sure... to mention you to George and Minister Chaska when I get back to Langara, I'm sure they'd like to add you to the LDA's most wanted." He then rose from his seat and then turned to the Marines standing in the doorway. "Sometimes people have to do what has to be done.. to restore peace and security in this troublesome galaxy... sacrifices must be made, to preserve safety to all peoples." He preached before the Marines nodded. "I'm sure Siress Wenutu, and Sire Bagot will... see the light when I speak with them, so I may have their votes." ”
