[quote=@SpookySquid] "Aaahhhh interesting... Aaahhhh... you are clearly lying to me. I doubt any Zambian envoy would be trusted with this in their backpack... One of the eyes. I never thought I would see one in my life...Aaahhhh... Yes... From the Great Wizard of the Ring... Aaahhhh... You have two choices... Aaahhhh... either leave this instant without your backpack, or allow Craleeti to escort you outside without your backpack. In short, we can do this the easy way or the hard way." [/quote] [color=ed1c24]"As I said, that object was meant to serve as my credentials for your brother. I am no mere envoy, only using that as a cover to gain entry to your country without raising any undue suspicion. My talents are many and varied, I am what you would call a 'fixer of problems', and right now your country seems to have many... problems."[/color] As he spoke Chuck held his respectful pose, bowed almost as low as Mateel's desk and keeping his face towards the floor. With his gaze lowered Chuck could see the floor clear behind him, the only feet other than his own the ones belonging to Craleeti. [color=ed1c24]"And as for my choices..."[/color] With a flick of his wrist Chuck sent his arm flying across the room, where it quickly wrapped itself around Craleeti's neck, the knife blade poised at the guard's throat. [color=ed1c24]"I think perhaps you may have underestimated my resources."[/color] Rising to his feet Chuck stepped towards Mateel his manner just as subservient and respectful as it had been before. [color=ed1c24]"Perhaps you could also make use of them? I'm sure there's some little problem you could use my help in... fixing."[/color]
