With everything in place; walking back to the briefing would be rather uneventful for Demor, and Ivera. The Marines stationed outside their door would escort them back the way they came to the briefing room.
Inside, Kathryn was going over a three-dimensional holographic projection of Origin, zooming into the planet to reveal a three-dimensional holographic projection of Questrios City.
Shimmering blue lines were displayed all throughout the city projection, landing calculations for the missile deployed drop pods. They had been chosen at random, but close enough together to where everyone could meet.
The Marines ushered the two into the room, while Kathryn was busy looking over the projection, breaking her concentration for just a moment to look up at Ivera. “So you think she was taken to this casino?” The IIA Operative asked, zooming in on the New Directions casino building.
“The nature of this world makes long range scans difficult, so our intelligence is limited, which means we’ll have to go in and scout the place out before we make a move.”
“Demor you’re with me. We’ll be posing as a couple to infiltrate the casino, so I trust you’ll act the part. Once we’ve ascertained positive confirmation that Montrose is being held there, a rescue plan will go into immediate effect.”
Gesturing to the door on the opposite side of the room, which chimed, and slid open to reveal three new faces. Kathryn waited for them to enter before introducing them.
The first one was a woman, raven black hair, and a stark complexion, dressed in a black great coat. Slowly she moved to take a seat at the briefing table. The second was a man, easily six hundred pounds of solid muscle, and almost eight feet tall. His footfalls made an audible thunk as he walked across the room, a lit cigar perched between his lips as he sneered at Demor, and Ivera. Moving towards one of the chairs, he sat down. The chair creaked, and groaned in protest, but held fast as the man slammed a meaty fist on the table, ashing his cigar onto the console.
The third man Demor would recognize as the agent that was working with Kathryn in the beginning, when they confronted him in his apartment.
Gesturing to them, Kathryn spoke up. “This is Special Agent Erin Solis, She’ll be working support, EOD, and will provide counter sniper, marksman , and augmented support through a combat skin in case we run into any trouble. She is very good at what she does, and will provide valuable assistance.”
She gestured to the second man, and continued her introduction. “This is Khaine, an adept of war. He’ll be providing heavy weapons support.”
She then gestured to Michael. “This is Special Agent Samuelle, he’ll be providing tactical support, and will be in charge of Team Beta, who will move in and extract us if we run into any trouble.
“If we get a confirmed ID, we’ll book a room in the hotel with a balcony, where additional supplies will be dropped in via UAV, I’ll suit up in a combat skin, and we’ll do a smash and grab hopefully get out before the authorities know we’re here.”
Focusing her attention on Demor, and Ivera, Kathryn continued. “Once we’ve extracted safely, you two will be compensated for your assistance, and released from service, and hopefully we can leave this gods forsaken star system.”
“Any questions?” Kathryn asked.
