APPRECIATE YOU MEETING ME ON SUCH SHORT NOTICE.
THAT’S QUITE ALRIGHT.
HAVE TO SAY, I WASN’T REALLY EXPECTING THIS.
MAN OF YOUR CALIBRE, THOUGHT THE MEETING PLACE WOULD BE... I DON’T KNOW, MORE THEATRICAL.
IT IS, IN A WAY.
WHEN, THE PLACE WAS FIRST BUILT, I HAD THIS CHAMBER ADDED. COMPLETELY OFF RECORD.
REALLY? DIDN’T KNOW YOU OWNED THE BUILDING. WELL NOT OFFICIALLY, ANYWAY. HAVE A SEAT.
YOUR FATHER AND I USUALLY HELD MEETINGS HERE.
YEAH.
I’M SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR FATHER, HVID.
THANK YOU... IT’S BEEN A FEW YEARS NOW, WE’VE ALL MOVED ON.
SUCH IS LIFE. HE CERTAINLY HAS BEEN MISSED. ATLI WAS A GOOD MAN. I ALWAYS CONSIDERED HIM A FRIEND.
SO, YOU SERVED TOGETHER, BEFORE CLIMBING THE CORPORATE LADDER?
NOT QUITE.
ATLI FIRST WORKED FOR ME DURING OPERATIONS IN SOUTH
TOWARDS THE END OF VIETNAM.
WHEN WAS THIS?
SHIT, DIDN’T KNOW YOU GUYS WENT THAT FAR BACK. FUCK WERE YOU DOING IN SOUTH AMERICA? ...SORRY, CLASSIFIED INFORMATION.
I MET ATLI JUST AFTER HE’D ACQUIRED LEADERSHIP OF WHAT IS NOW YOUR ORGANISATION. WE WERE THEN IN BUSINESS UP UNTIL A YEAR BEFORE HE PASSED.
I’D LOST CONTACT WITH HIM. ONLY WHEN I SOUGHT HIM OUT AGAIN FOR A JOB, HEARD THAT HE BOUGHT IT IN A MISSION JUST OFF THE BLACK SEA. A SOLDIERS DEATH. DE HE WAS BETRAYED, STABBED IN THE BACK BY HIS OWN FUCKING GUYS.
I TRULY AM SORRY TO HEAR THAT. WELL, IT’S CERTAINLY NOT SOUND BUSINESS, LEADING SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE. HONESTLY THOUGHT THE ORGANISATION DISBANDED AFTER HIS DEATH. DE ALMOST DID.
AFTER RETRIBUTION...
...THINGS GOT COMPLICATED IN THE POWER VACUUM...
SO WE HAD TO DOWNSIZE OUR OPERATIONS.
THAT’S... UNFORTUNATE... HMM. NONE THE LESS, YOU MANAGED TO SURVIVE. SOMETHING YOU’VE INHERITED FROM YOUR FATHER NO DOUBT. HIS ABILITY TO SURVIVE, THAT IS. THINK SO? MUCH GOOD IT DID HIM IN I’M TALKING THE END. ABOUT SURVIVAL. DEATH
IS A CONCLUSION AND AN INEVITABLE ONE. EVERYBODY MUST FACE THEIR FATE, EVENTUALLY...
...REGARDLESS OF HOW CUNNING THEY ARE...
YOU DON’T LOOK MUCH LIKE YOUR FATHER DO YOU?
NO, NO I DON’T. WHICH IS GOOD, BECAUSE HE WAS QUITE, UNSIGHTLY.
HA HA. OFCOURSE, I MEANT NO OFFENCE.
WHEN I DISCOVERED YOUR ORGANISATION WAS STILL OPERATING, YOUR NAME IS WHAT INTERESTED ME THE MOST. FACT THAT YOU’RE ATLI’S ONLY CHILD, HIS ONLY HEIR. YOU CAN PICK UP WHERE YOUR FATHER LEFT OFF. THAT’S ONE OF THE REASONS I’M HERE.
GOOD, SO WE’RE ON THE SAME PAGE.
IN ALL THE YEARS I KNEW YOUR FATHER, HE NEVER LET ME DOWN. HE WAS ALWAYS THE FIRST CHOICE FOR BUSINESS. YOU MUST UNDERSTAND, IT’S BECAUSE OF YOUR FATHER’S REPUTATION I’VE ASKED YOU HERE.
THAT’S CHARMING, REALLY. BUT I CAN HOLD MY OWN.
ALL I’M SAYING IS, I DON’T TAKE WELL TO DISAPPOINTMENT. WELL THAT’S UNDERSTANDABLE, MR. GRIM. BUT WHY DON’T YOU START THOUGH BY TELLING ME WHAT IT IS YOU WANT?
I WANT AN ARTIFACT, A VERY IMPORTANT ARTIFACT. IT’S RELATIVELY SMALL, CAN BE CARRIED IN A MEDIUM SIZED CASE. WHEN?
END OF THE WEEK. DELIVERED TO ME PERSONALLY, ON TIME. IT’S CURRENTLY HELD AT THE GRIFFIN W.S CENTRAL BUILDING. IT’S FORTIFIED, TIGHT SECURITY.
OK, SO WHAT’S YOUR ANGLE?
THREE BLOCKS DOWN IS A BUILDING CONNECTED TO THE SAME NETWORK. HACK INTO THE SYSTEM FROM THERE. GET YOUR HANDS ON THE INFORMATION YOU NEED: SECURITY CODES, SCHEMATICS, GUARD NUMBERS, LAYOUTS.
WHAT ABOUT DETECTION? THIS GIVES US NO TIME TO PLAN. IF THE SYSTEM HACK IS PICKED UP BY SECURITY IT’S GAME OVER BEFORE WE EVEN MAKE OUR MOVE.
I’LL SUPPLY A READY MADE VIRUS YOU’LL USE TO DISRUPT THE NETWORK ONCE YOU HACK IN. GIVES YOU AT LEAST 48 HOURS BEFORE SECURITY SYSTEMS CAN RECOVER AND TRACE THE SOURCE. NOW, THE OTHER BUILDING IS AN OFFICE COMPLEX.
SECURITY ON ENTRY. BUT THIS WILL BE THE EASY PART.
