Finally the FBI is able to track down the phone number of the hotel Mr. Young is staying in. While Ms. Zinner is talking to the HRT I walk off to a office and call up the hotel room. "Hello, this is Rei Usagi. We met briefly in Chechnya."

((This character isn't called Zinn. Ms. Zinner, Seven, Sheva, or Agent Zinner would work. Zinn is a different character on RI))

"I wasn't expecting a call from you." Gabriel replies. He was just talking to one of the John's about the mysterious donor. And is surprised she called.
"I am surprised to hear you are alive. I was informed not to go inside the compound and I watched from afar as it was destroyed." He takes a long and deliberate sip of his dark, cold coffee. It has been sitting out for a few hours as he was waiting for calls. "The lengths those terrorists go to."

I do not hear from Alvaro, but I catch word that Alejos is coming to Columbia. It has been many weeks since I contacted him and I thought he had forgotten about the letter I sent him.
I run over to Julia's apartment to tell her the good news.
"Julia, someone is coming here. Maybe he knows what happened to Alvaro. He was in Russia at the time!"
"You should not get your hopes up, Soledad. But I am glad for you that he is coming.
"I have no place to put him up. Do you think he can stay here with you?"
"Soledad, I am not having some...revolutiionary and a male stay in my apartment! Are you crazy?"
"Please, I can not have him at my parents. I can stay here too, that way I can keep an eye on him for you. Don't worry about a thing!"
"You know I don't want to, but fine. The things I do for a friend."
"This means a lot, Julia."

(I called you on the phone)
"Indeed." I reply. "I think I was either lucky or blessed to be alive, whichever way you prefer to think about it. However we have new problems, unfortunately it is more terrorists, and this time the hostage in question has a significantly higher profile." I say,

"We know that this is a bad situation. The demons are spreading westward, setting up their dens of immorality across the western states." Gabriel replies in an even tone. He always speaks in an even tone. Those who know him best, consider him emotionless and passionless. His only zeal is for his job.
"I was told to wait."

The government and the church would not help me. I return to my village defeated. I step off that old green bus onto the dusty road before my village. People are still missing. Villages are still pillaged. My trip to the capital accomplished nothing.
I hang my head as I return to my home. I approach it and feel heavy with hopelessness.
My siblings run to me, but their faces are sad.
"Espiranza, the quetzal, it is dead." my youngest sibling says.
They lead me to the tree underwhich they burried the bird of hope, freedom and prosperity.
"We never expected it to last long, remember that quetzals can not live in captivity." I say to them with a defeated voice.

"We have also seen some signs that the SLA may be spreading. All in all it's a bad situation, but soon we'll be teaching them a lesson they won't soon forget. I only hope they don;t do too much damage before then."

"They are small in numbers. The most they have done is bank robberies and hostage taking. Maybe you should talk to the FBI about infiltrating some of these far left groups."
"They are a pest, but not the greatest of our concerns. They lack the members to be. The main threat to this country is presented by general immorality and Islamic terror."
"We need a new order, a republic of Gilead."

"I agree that an ordered society would solve a lot of problems, but it is my job to impliment policy, not to create it." I state. "But I also agree that the biggest problem is the foregin one. However it is somewhat more difficult to deal with."

"Yeah, I suppose it is." Gabriel replies. He is not interested in politics and the world outside of the United States. He thought that she had contacts with the FBI since he saw her with the head of the FBI when she was in Chechnya. Maybe someone from HOLY can suggest that the FBI start taking a more active role in infiltrating far left groups.
"Do you have any information about the hostage they have?"

Alejos arrives in Columbia. His eyes are covered by sunglasses, but beneath them are tired bloodshot eyes that show signs of sleep deprivation and angst.
'This was stupid. Even IF she's still waiting for my response, how the hell am I supposed to get in contact with her? This whole trip might end up being a waste of time and money that could be spent on the revolution!'

I stand before the ruins of the U.S. embassy in Syria. A slight wind is ruining my hair, tossing it in my face. I struggle to report, even though I have hair in my eyes.
"Earlier today a suicide bomber destroyed parts of the U.S Embassy in Damascus killing five and injurring dozens. "
"As of yet, the Americans do not know which terrorist group was behind the attack but a full investigation is underway."
"This is Aisha Alluni for Al Jezeera news."
Once the report is done, I go back to my hotel and fix my hair. The wind did a number on it and I look like I am wearing a black mop on my head.

"His name is Grey Rochester, the son of a democratic senator and the head of the Nokia corperation." I state. This information will likely be made public soon anyways so I don't see the harm in telling him.
(I have to go after my next post, sorry)

"I will contact the Johns and Marys to see what they can find out about him. I think we can deal with the SLA. We've dealt with worse."
"If that's all, I'm heading to bed. I've got an early day tomorrow."
