"Mr. Leaver, what sort of missions did your cell have in the past? I am
assuming that they were more successful than this one." 

Adam looked nervously around the room, stopping only for a second as 
when he
got to each of the other people there.   "To be honest, this is the 
biggest
mission we have been given.   For the most part, we have done small 
things
that probably fall under the category of observation."

<It seems like for the most part, the cell was small time,> thought the
assistant Security Chief.

"Well, for example, we have often been sent to study various alien
representatives to see what we can learn about them as individuals and 
them
as a people."

Aravis nodded, indicating that he could continue.  It would seem like 
the
logical thing to start lower level people in in an organization like the
Brotherhood.

"We did also study the layout of the place where the funeral for Admiral
Lasiter's son was going to be held.   We weren't involved in the 
attack, but
we did help with getting the lay of the land."   Adam knew that that
information was damning, but he was not about to start lying at this 
point. 
His safety would be better served by helping these people as much as he
could now that he had started.

Aravis paused.  Had she heard Leaver correctly.  That was not exactly 
small
time.  In fact, it was really suprising since everyone involved with it 
was
believed to have been taken in by Security already.  She stared at 
Adam. 
"Did you know what was going to happen when you were scoping things out
there?"

Leaver seemed to consider his answer carefully before he gave it.  He 
took time to think of how he wanted to phrase it since he knew that it 
was a delicate topic.  "I knew that there was going to be some sort of 
attack, but I did not know the specific target or the ultimate goal of 
the attack.  I have to admit that I am not sure that it would have 
changed my decision to do the work, though, ma'am."

Geb was disgusted by the human's answer.  It was hard to believe that 
people could have so much hate for others just because they were 
different.  They seemed to want to destroy people because of a 
difference of opinion.
