[Naked Crook]

Jennifer arrived in the King Raven's Hanger Bay, as she watches a few dozen Marines loading into Pelicans. Jennifer was forced to wait a few minutes, before Burke finally showed up. As Burke walked into the Hanger Bay, he was checking his pistol. Burke: Jennifer... Burke grinned, as he gave Jennifer a nod. As he did this, he holstered his pistol. Burke: I have about a dozen combat medics ready to join us. They are current packing up their gear, and they will be going onver on the next run. You and I can head over now, if you would prefer. Jennifer: Might as well. I am not going over there as a physician anyway, so, it won't matter either way. Jennifer paused. Jennifer: Come on...we can catch one of the Pelican's that are about to depart. Burke nodded, as he followed behind Jennifer. They boarded the first Pelican they saw, which had about 4 other Marines inside. As Jennifer walked in, she held her hand up, and spoke to the Marines. Jennifer: At ease, men. The Marines simply nodded, as they sat in the seats, waiting for departure. Jennifer, who had no intention of waiting, simply gave the order to depart to the pilot. Jennifer: Pilot...double time this bird to the Ulterior Motive! Pilot: Yes ma'am! The rear hatch on the Pelican seal to an air tight lock, as the Pelican took off, and headed over to the Ulterior Motive. As the Pelican made it's journey, Burke spoke to Jennifer. Burke: So, I heard that we captured Jacob. Is this true? Jennifer: Yes. I have him being held in maximum security. I am still trying to decide how to interrogate him. Burke: Tell me you are not thinking of letting Nighthawk question him? Do I have to remind you what he did to Hoffman? Jennifer: I remember clear as day what Nighthawk did to Hoffman...which is why I am going to let him do it to Jacob if Jacob does not comply. Burke: Are you expecting him to resist any sort of questioning? Jennifer: No, but I am expecting him to hold back information, or even, twist it to suit himself. Jennifer paused. Jennifer: For all I know, Jacob could have been a member of The Trust for a while, and he simply wants out. Or, he decided to join The Trust, and he simply got cold feet after he made the jump Pwerhaps he regrets it, and he is going to try and cover up his mistake with excuses. Whatever happens, I doubt we are going to get a completly honest answer from him. Burke: I cannot believe he actually tried to team up with The Trust. I feel like an idiot. I cannot believe I sent him, of all people, to the DARK facility. Jennifer: Don't feel bad David. That is what the Trust does; they pretend to be your friends, and they turn on you when you are most vulnerable. Don't blame yourself because Jacob is a good liar...or an idiot. Burke sighed. Burke: Well, hopefully we can get something out of all of this. I am not liking how things are playing out. This is one of those things that always can, and does, get worse. Jennifer: I have a feeling this is going to get worse...much worse. As Jennifer said this The Pelican shook a bit, as it landed in the hanger bay of the Ulterior Motive. As the engines powered down, the rear hatch opened, and Jennifer stepped out. Burke followed behind her. As Jennifer stepped onto the Hanger Bay floor, she saw Harrison conversing with one of his teams. She wasted no time in approaching him, from the side, as she spoke his name. Jennifer: Admiral...you sure wasted no time in showing up.
