New Lusitania

[Lusitano]

* It as been a long week. Despite the sucess against Thulsa Doom, by cutting his supply lines and the promisse of Dr. Abel Salazar on board the Barca of good news, the kiddnap of Allie is very disturbing. Viriato is on his room, dressing a very rich way when Ana enters*

- Ana - Why are you doing this?!

- Viriato - Doing what?! Can you please help me with this tie?

- Ana - Why are you going? Why don't you sent another on your place?

- Viriato - Because i must. Will you help me with this tie or not?

- Ana - No! It is too risky for you! You are always risking you life. I can't live this way!

- Viriato - I said i'm going and that is final. I will not send others to do my job while i'm sitting on a chair very confortable!

- Ana - Nooo! If you go ... i ... if you go when you return i will not be here!

- Viriato takes a deep breath - I ... never forced you to do anything you didn't want to! But i have to go!

- Ana - Why?!

- Viriato - BECAUSE YES! Because on two years ... TWO LONG YEARS of my life i serve on a special Rheinland task force, and our jobs was to find and kill infected agents, and we becomed very very good doing that. So good that our "superiors" started to send us on more and more dificult missions .. even impossible missions, and while they were sitting on their chairs many of us were dying and they didn't care. THEY DIDN'T CARE! I got tired of that and left and also because we found that not all our targets were infected agents ... some unwanted normal humans also becomed targets. That is why i will not send any one to do a job that i can do it! They are not less important than me and their lifes have the same "price" of mine so I WILL NOT SENT any one on my place! And ... if you leave me ... you know how much i love you but i will not force you to stay.

* Viriato takes his tie and leaves the room, leaving Ana alone crying. On his way to the hangar he meets Joao*

- Joao - What is wrong?

- Viriato - Ana ... she ...

- Joao - Did you told her?!

- Viriato - Yes ... almost all!

- Joao - You should have told her long time ago!

- Viriato - It is not a thing that i'm proud of!

* Both arrived to the hangar, at that time Viriato managed to put his tie, near the Dromedary ship has Nuno and two soldiers that will act has bodyguards, one a former Kusari Imperial Guard and the other a rheinalnd beast of a man. Nuno explains the plan, it was a very simple one, Viriato escorted by the two bodyguards, will enter the buidling, that is a small warehouse on the small town about 2500 km south Port Canaria, will act as a buyer and if Allie is located he signal Beta team, that is already on location, sortms the place. There is a good hint that Allie is there, if it isn't her, another like her is there. After briefing Viriato enters the ship and his escortsd and leaves to the location. Some ime later they arrive, they dock the ship on small docking plattform. Thy are stopped at the door but some credits and gold nuts are a good key. Inside the bordel owner comes to Viriato*

Inside the office there were two securities, the border owner went behind his desk and invite Viriato to sit, hile the two securities are amaze with the tattos of the kusairian bodyguard and mainly the huge size of the rheinlander*

With the room secure, Viriato makes the call to Beta to storm the place*
