[PERSON OF INTEREST] Two: This will be a very high profile incident. The news will be all over it. All of G-Corp's attention will be on it...
[PERSON OF INTEREST] And not what they plan on doing next. They need everyone distracted for a few days so they primed a very obvious, very destructive incident to keep everyone's attention.
[PERSON OF INTEREST] That base is almost certainly going to spring in to do something while G-Corp is distracted with both the incident and the meeting. G-Corp's defenses will be too splintered to stop them.
"Shit."
"Yeah." Ashley seems to pick up on the exact same things you're picking up on. "I imagine those spooks are mobilizing soon. You don't have a lot of time; They're probably ready to turn the streets red. <span class="mu-r">Maybe it's a coup, even.</span>"
[SEEKER OF THE CITY] G-Corp is one of the newest, least established, and weakest companies by Corporate standards. It could be a surebet by their standards.
Nothing you can do at the moment but you have to get into contact with that one G-CORP REP you have contact info for.
You finish your cigarette and toss it over the edge of the platform. "Mmh. Shit, thanks, that was bothering me ever since I heard it."
"No problem. Considering they tricked my brother into playing along with their stupid games, I have no love for them either."
With that handled, the two of you board onto the train. You plop down onto one of the longer seats so you can lay your body down on it. Physically, you're in prime FLESH and health but you're exhausted after another long mission. Dasha slowly approaches you while the others are busy chatting amongst themselves. You sit up so she has room to sit down but she gestures at you to lay back down.
"Didn't mean to interrupt your rest. I could imagine things were pretty rough, Tovarishch Nikola."
"It's Nicole. No need to be formal either."
"O-oh! Wasn't being formal. S-sorry, good with English but some words slip my mind. Companion? Close to that word."
Oh. You get what she's trying to say. "Comrade, eh? That's what you're trying to say."
"Yes, yes! The word those armed men were using." Dasha is trying her best to keep up a smile but it's obvious something is worrying her.
"What's up?"
"...This world is different from what I knew. I. You know lot, yes? Could you teach me? I don't feel comfortable with others, especially rotten man. I know he's kind but..."
"I get it, I get it." It takes a bit for you to sit back up but you soon find a comfortable position. "So. Let's do it quick. Most of the human race lives inside the walls of the City. Massive megacity that holds billions on billions of people. Shaped sorta like a fucked up circle."
"U-uh huh?"
"Instead of the nations you knew, there's 26 Corporations instead. Each of which holds enough land and resources to be on par with the nations you know of. They're listed A through Z."
"Alexis said we are in I-Corp, yes? Is the Union still around?" You almost don't want to answer this.
