Neu Berlin, the sun rises behind the skyscrapers of the inner city and birds are singing their songs as the first sunbeams hit them. The Inspekteurin sits in her office while a Wachtmeister comes in. "Frau Inspekteurin, your Cappucino, Sir!" "Ah thanks Erich, please place it between the Aktenberg and leave." She is tired. After the officer left, Kara stands up and opens her window to let some fresh air into her room. She closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. *It's so quiet. Wonderful!* she thinks. Some seconds later a Sleipnir passes her Window with a loud engine noise and blows all her files from her desk. "Ach verdammte Scheiße!" Now she's angry. At least her coffe stands unharmed on her desk. She takes it and allowed herself a big sip before she starts to get her files back on her desk.
That moment the phone rings. "Na wunderbar...As if this morning could get any worse..." She stands up and reaches the phone. "Ja?" "Uhmm good morning Frau Inspekteurin, Reichskanzler von Koch is here...He told me to urgently reach you, he awaits you in the conference room, 9th floor." *f...k I shouldn't have complained by now*. "Ugh yeah, tell the Reichskanzler I will be there in a minute or two." "Verstanden Frau Inspekteurin!" Kara reaches for her Uniformjacket and walks out of her office, down to the conference room where the Reichskanzler awaits her.
As she arrives, Volker walks up and down in a straight line. As he sees Kara, he stops. "Ah! Prinzessin! Endlich you have the time!""Ach Volker, how often do I have to tell you to not use this etiquette while im in this office... I'm Inspekteurin der Kaiserlichen Polizei here, nothing more, nothing less..." Volker studied her from the top to the bottem and back. He then draw his conclusion. "But you are a Prinzessin ... A Prinzessin that could have needed a better start this morning, eh?" She nods. Ja Volker. But thats not the point... Why are you visiting me so early and why are you urging me to hurry?"Ah yeah, right! Nun to keep it short, we have this guy. That one who built these CWW bases in Frankfurt near the lane. He agreed to surrender. According to him he is unarmed but I don't trust him. Bring your best men, I would say your Sondereinsatzkommando and bring this guy to the Reichstag. In Ketten. I don't want to give him the opportunuty to do something stupid...
Kara glares ad Volker. "You really got him? Volker you're fast! Well I have expected nothing less from a man with your Qualities, Herr Ex-Direktor of the whole Geheimdienst. Alright I believe this guy is already on route to Neu Berlin so this has to be prepared quickly now. Thanks for the... early... Information Volker..."
He grins. "As early as you need, Frau Inspekteurin. I know your qualities as well, as you know." Kara rolls her eyes and shakes her head while she starts to leave. "ja ja Volker... I will bring you this man but I guess handcuffs shoud work we don't go as far as you might hope with your chains! I will text you as soon as the operation succeeds, bis dann Volker!"
She leaves and walks back to her office, already calling her SEK Gruppenführer on her mobile phone. "Lützow? You there? Kara here.... We have a mission for the SEK, the criminal who build the illegal bases in Frankfurt surrenders. The what? Nonono thats not Grenzschutz' case thats ours. That was at the Neu Berlin Jump Gate, you remember? Gut. Then inform the other Group and form up at the landing area. From now on no passenger leaves his ship until the Polizei tells him so. You will send groups of four officers into each ship and look for Jon Winter. Hurry up we'll form up in T-20. Bring some Panzerfahrzeuge and Straßensperren. I don't want to loose this guy as this case has big public interest because he injured the safe travel. Verstanden? Gut. Bis dann."
Kara grabs her tactical equipment and leaves her office. She pulls out her phone again. "Deckoffizier? Inspekteurin von Thielau hier! Warm up the engines of my Mjölnir, Headquater Startrampe 4! Priority high... Yes with with blue flashing lights an siren. That's why I am flying instead of driving you Scherzkeks!" She angrily hangs up the phone and takes her seat in the fighter. As soon as the garage opens and she launches, Kara activates her lights and siren and flies to the common landing area, which is located on the other side of the city.
As soon as she begins to land her ship, she sees her troops already gathering and closing the access to the launching area. She quickly proceeds and walks to the leading officers. "Tag allerseits, von Thlielau. Polizeiinspekteurin. Allright. Gruppe Alpha and Bravo, you secure the Platform and make sure nobody leaves without doublecheck registration. Gruppe Delta, you form up at the regular checkout zone and will be the second pass before the passengers may leave. Groups Charlie and Echo, you will break up your Gruppen and form squadrons of four officers. You will walk into the ships and look for blind passengers. You will be the first pass.
Alright everyone short concentration once again; The man we are looking for is called Jon Winter!"
Kara finishs her coordinating speech and leaves the lower-ranked officers to go near the mobile command unit.
Some hours pass until Kara gets the massage from one of her Gruppenführer *"We have him."
She smiled but she looks a bit tired. *Finally* she thinks.
Kara walks towards the officers with a man in handcuffs. "He didn't resist his arrest, Sir." "Ausgezeichnet. Please bring him into one of our prisoner transporters and then to the Reichstag." The two officers nod. "Zu Befehl!"
Kara walks back to her command unit, takes her helmet off and takes a deep breath. *Now it is quiet again... Nice and quiet and my home is once safer again... I'll leave the rest to Volker and the Reichstag now... The Bericht will have to wait until they are done anyways*
Earlier that day some strange noice from a heartbeat detector fills the floors of an unknown station. The hall is dark and the only light comes from further back down the hall out of a small room. "I got to do this Mr.White. I can't deny their request. You know they will listen and will understand our situation!" "But what if they don't Mr.Winter! What if they throw you into their prison and will not listen to you and will ignore your request for peace?!" "Well than be it. For our friends and family I got to go to New Berlin and change their minds. That "Oberau" shall be mentioned in this incident and their slaughter on our freedom aswell. I am sure the Emperor of rheinland will understand and might even lend us a hand for making our intentions of trading and expending possible! I mean we do want to work hard as freelancers and we want to be a profit to his region. How could he resist? Even..." Jon... I think you did not understand. They see us as threat. They see us as if we are pirates. They never did try to understand. Your messages you send out while the attacks happend... They never did answer those! They ignored facts. We did violate their rules, but the destruction of our homes was a step to far! Maybe it was. But we can only take the diplomacy way! Mr. Winter pulls the cables from the heartbeat detector off his chest tries to get up but looses his ground. Mr.White with lightning speed reacts and holds him just before he would fall. "Thank you. I must go now. Can you help me to get into this stupid wheelchair?" "Of course I will take you to New Berlin and as soon as I drop you off I will leave! You have to do this alone in case they want to hang you! I could come and infiltrate them before it would come to that point." "Don't worry I will be fine."
They both go down the dark floor. Passing several rooms filled with injured people from the accident. The hall they are going through is huge. As they walk along that hall they notice that the whole environment is active as doctors and nurses run back and furth. They hear screaming filled with a lot of pain. Crying bereaved and faces filled with experienced devistation. They enter the hanger. The "retrofit" towers up in front of them. At that point both stand still for a second and a lightning shoots throw their brains as they both remember how they escaped from "CWW-South-One". They both experience a so called "vietnam flashback". Both are shocked till a friend comes out of the retrofit. Well well! There you are. I heard what the government is up to. You both want to get to new Berlin now no?! Both forget their flashback and are now present again. Yes. I... Mr.Winter will be the one. So let's go. It is early in the morning. They sure are waiting for my appearance.
They start the engines of the retrofit and head to Planet new Berlin. As they enter the the landing area they are already been checked out by officers. One officer immediately noticed that he saw Mr.Winter. A by now well known name in rheinland. He was held gunpoint as he follows the commands and gets arrested without any resistance. What will happen next? We are eagerly awaiting the outcome of this incident.
