and I are leaving the station. We are heading to San Francisco for a meeting
with President Montgomery to brief him on several situations."
"Understood and noted sir. Renaud out."
"Chief, energize." Lasiter said.
Moments later, Brennan, Lasiter, and a small security contingent appeared
at the Presidential Compound, the grouping of office buildings where the
Executive offices of the UFP were located.
They entered the complex, and quickly arrived at the President's office.
Where they waited until they were announced. They waited about 15 minutes, as
the President was running late that day due to an unexpected appointment
earlier. Once shown in...
"Mr. President, thank you for taking time to see us today."

As the greetings were completed and the men seated, Lasiter turned to the
business at hand.
"As you know, sir, we have some news of a some importance to discuss with
you....", Lasiter said in a very calm, somber tone.
