Day 347

The room was dark as Q walked into it. As far as Q was concerned he was a king among himself and there was no debate. At his table sat his children, Peter and W, and his three generals. Q sat down at the head of the long table and gave them a deep stare.
"Is there any news today?" asked Q
"Yes sir, Moshes son is coming to inspect there military base next week" said his first general.
"Moshes son? How do we kill him?" said Q
"I suggest we just do it" said Peter
"I suggest assassination" said W
"Fire" said the first general
"Cake" said the third general to which the second general replied:
"Throw my peer at them until they both perish".
"Those are all legitimate suggestions however I have a plan" piped up Q before an argument could start. Slowly they started to huddle around each other scheming.

Roughly a week later a car pulled up to the nearby military base. Inside the car sat Andrew Lake, the son of Moshe Lake. He had grown up in London, America the son of a war hero. It was on that same block that his friend John had grown and they had treated each other like brothers. Slowly the guard approached them.
"What you doing here?" asked the guard. Andrew flashed his ID. "Fine but what he doing here?" said the guard gesturing to John.
"His with London, PD to help me investigate" said Andrew.
"Say I have a friend at the Yard-" said the guard.
"No, London, America PD. Sorry not with the Yard" said John.
"Is there any way I could help?" asked the guard.
"Yes, tell us about the prisoner" said John.
"The prisoner, I found him myself. He's been a bit incoherent even to the Colonel. Found him by the old mine field which is lucky for him. He was wearing the uniform of a high ranking member of ICES, they are a terrorist group around here. Trying to take over the region" said the guard
"Anything else?" asked John
"Yeah, we always carry GPS on ourselves so we can summon air support on demand. Only a few are active at a time but we like to keep them on ourselves at all times in case we go missing. The prisoner didn't have one so he is one of ICES'" said the guard.
"Well thank you, is the Colonel ready now?" said Andrew.
"He better be. Oh, and good luck" said the guard, "you'll need it."
John and Andrew stepped inside the facility where they were highly regarded by all. Quickly they approached the prisoner's chambers which looked disheveled, dark and messy. The prisoner himself looked as if he had undergone all forms of psychological torture. He was the third general of ICES. Immediately in front of him the Colonel was trying to talk with him. Upon seeing John the two hugged and celebrated as they had been friends in previous years.

How ever upon seeing Andrew hate was inspired. They had been rivals through out school for the approval of Moshe and unlike most other kids the Colonel took it seriously. The greeting between the two was far more informal.

Upon this they stepped inside the chambers.
"It's his son. The son must die. The son will die" said the general
"Sorry, you won't be that lucky" said Andrew
"We don't need luck, we need cake" said the general
"Why are we here again" asked John
"You will make him slip up" said the Colonel pressing him forward
"Where's your base?" asked John
"Secret in the north" said the general
"I know what he means, prepare to head out the three of us" said the Colonel
"Beware the king, his dragon who lurks in the shadows and the cake he feeds" said the general
"Who's side are you on?" said the Colonel
"The cake, cake, cake, cake..." the general rambled.
"Not again, well boys let us go."

And so they journeyed to the North where they found the hidden entrance to the base of ICES. The banners all around read InterContinental Eagle Services, being what ICES stood for. Inter Continental being their goal and Eagle Services being symbolic of strength. Their base was well lit, surprisingly so for a villainous base but quickly they noticed that they were being watched.

In fact they were being watched by W who was planning to go through with her assassination attempt despite being warned against it because of how simple it is to over power a single person. The advice was promptly ignored.
