"That is correct, Duke."
The First Sergeant turned and faced Snake Eyes.
"Scarlett?"
"What he said."
Duke sighed.
"How?"

"The which-what?" Scarlett asked.
Duke groaned.
"The Meteorological Manipulation Device. It was in the mission briefing."
"Oh, that weather machine." Scarlett replied.
"Yes- that. And judging from the debrief, COBRA knows where to look."
Snake Eyes snickered.
"Knowing COBRA, they're probably not going to find it. It's like a needle in a haystack, and withCOBRA's incompetence-" he began.
"Apples don't fall far from the tree. Knowing that Arclay Geo's got a warehouse in Leipzig, it's going to be there." Duke interrupted.
