Three men pushed through the crowd that had formed around their mark in Porto Novo. They had been observing the man and were surprised to find that he stood perfectly still for almost 24 hours.
El Presidente, an Ex-Elder of the Corsairs had been instructed by General Joseph Garcia to send his best man to Porto Novo clutching a red ribbon in his left hand and the three men now closing on him were sent to retrieve him.
They approached the man and whispered something in his ear. He turned and followed them to a nondescript transport under the cries of a disappointed crowd who had gathered to observe the living statue.
As soon as they entered the transport the three men had the Corsair sit in a pitch-black section that had no windows or anything to allow him to orientate himself.
After what seemed like hours, the Corsair was blindfolded and led through a series of corridors before finally arriving to his destination. As soon as the blindfold was removed, he saw only General Joseph Garcia and two heavily armed marines at his side within an office that continued only a desk and two chairs.
Though the Corsair didn't realize it at the time, he was now at Boa Vista Station in the SCRA's Recruitment Office. Security precluded them from revealing the location to a Corsair, of course.
General Garcia looked the Corsair in the eye and simply asked "Do you know why you're here?"
