While sitting in her awesome desk in the Captial Ms. Cortez the one and only got a communique from her boss, her over lord President Diego. It was an official document unlike the scribbled messages passed by her guerillas sometimes stained with others blood. It was a detailed order to simply and ultimately destory the Balruban Smugglers. A smile crossed her face as the tables had simply turned, the criminals would be dealt with - Melizean style of course. She opended a drawer by her side as she removed a few dossiers - it was those who served in the MAF below her. A few generals and a admiral, their contact information were one of the few bits of information she saw about them. Picking up the phone she made a call, well a few calls to be specific.

Isabella Cortez - Cartel Leader Minister Of Defence
One of the more shocking things to happen to Isabella is that Diego actually put her in charge of the ministry of defence? What the fuck, she was shocked when the news came to her in form of a local courier that she used between the cartels. She was a bit upset because she had to leave her ivory tower in the jungle but at the same time she was concerned due to the fact she was apart of a violent cartel and occasionally a guerilla fighter. So she was unsure if she was going to be shot the second she walked into the captial.
Later on when she did enter the captial (in a nice dress no less) she was glared at by some whom she passed in transit of a government car but it's not like they could do anything. She left her lieutenants to run her piece of the cartel while she was in office making money and... living well. This seemed to go against everything she stood for (if you looked at a glance) but the cartel ran the country now, not her cartel specifically but it was a step in the right direction. When the budget came across her table she signed it in agreement a simple aye was enough for the Melizean public.
"Treaties on paper mean nothing, it's the man with the gun and will to do is what matters the most
“Brothers and sisters of Melizea our nation, still lives in poverty and in the grip corruption, that still chains our country and due to that, I Marcela Linhares candidate myself to presidency together brothers and sisters we shall walk united against the corruption of our nation and its backwardness follow me brothers and sisters and I shall end this grip of the cartels into our government and make our nation once again a reason for us to be proud of! For Melizae!”
Bang bang!
Some of the lackeys took cover as the sound of gun shots rang out in the room hitting the radio before utterly turning it into scrap. They would have to get another one from the capital. Isabella lowered her pistol as she put it back in her holster before sitting back on her 'throne' in her lair. "I'm tired of her talking." She said admittedly there was not a anti-cartel candidate that had run this hard before, usually they had a accident or something but she had backing. She was a rich snob and if her parents had not been as powerful as they were maybe she wouldn't have a platform.
It seemed that everyone joined the army these days, the other candidate was Diego Saavedra who she had no qualms with. A Pro-cartel candidate was beneficial and didn't require her to run a guerrilla campaign against the government, with Marcella outting herself as a champion for democracy and justice (Melizea didn't need that) it just made voting for Diego more viable than anything. There was no such thing as the lesser evil, with Diego in charge she wouldn't have the army conducting raids on her. It was decided.
"I want Diego as president spread the word, sister." He said to one of her veteran guards who nodded in respect and left immediately to let the districts know that Isabella Cortez wanted Diego to champion the country.
