9) The Embassy
Lord Titus walks out the bar followed by Uncle Stefan and then General Summers. To their surprise Sir Micheal is the center of all the attention. All the soldiers and Uncle Stefan's men are huddled around him as he shares tales of their adventures.
"You should go to the embassy and get supplies. I can escort you there but afterward, I have a conference with the Pentagon. Naturally, you can't be there and I can't be late. So if you could be quick, my stars are on the line." General Summers jokes in a friendly manner.
"Thanks, Sum, you watch yourself out there." Stefan claps Summers' shoulder and shakes her hand.
Meanwhile, Lord Titus watches the fanfare around Sir Micheal. Also being sure to watch his uncle and General Summers' from the corner of his left eye, which happen to be his more dominant of the pair. As he approached the voice of Sir Micheal and the surrounding men became more clear.
"So, Micheal, tell us what happened next?" one man asks with eagerness in his eyes.
"Well, she grabbed my suit. Then, pulled me in for a kiss. That day I meet the only girl that could handle me." Micheal smiles at the group.
"You, Micheal, in love? From what we hear you are the ladies man everyone knows." One soldier laughs
"Yes, I know it's hard to believe." Micheal says with a twinkle in his eyes
"Damn you didn't get her digits?" Another guy asks
"I was too busy kissing her that I forgot about the number. Besides, I doubt she would have given it."
"What's her name, Micheal?"
" Larin. If I were to have the chance I would marry her."
"Micheal, we need to get going to the embassy." Titus interrupts which is followed by many groans for the surrounding men. Titus eyes Micheal.
"What?! We got bored waiting for you three."
The drive to the embassy was short. The building was located on the northern coast of the island. Every inch within the steel fence was American soil.
"Well, Titus you always wanted to go to America. This is as close as you may get." Micheal smiles at his older brother.
They drive up to a steel fence surrounding an American embassy. When America made an embassy, which occurs in nearly every country, they claim the land around it as their own. If someone were to attack the said embassy that would be an act of war. This means there is no need for permission from Congress. To their left is a guard post. The guard asks for identification. After being approved they drive into the steel gate.
"I will talk to the quartermaster and get us some supplies. You two just hang out." Stefan tells his nephews.
After a period of time, Stefan finds his nephews admiring the view from a window on the North side of the embassy. The view overlooked the city which faded into the countryside of the island.
"Okay, I got the vehicles loaded up with supplies. Including modified M16s. We even got a Humvee now. Since we share a common enemy with the Americans they are willing to help us. They will have a squad of Marines with us as escorts."
After leaving the embassy they agree to sleep at a hotel for the night. The Marines and Stefan's men set up a perimeter. Unloading the supplies into the rooms.
