Chapter 10

Security officer Tamara ordered his men check the people in front of them for any type of weapons. Even though Captain Daniels and his group dropped what ever devices onto the cement floor in front of them.

When Tamara asked Captain Daniels to state his purpose. Daniels 'd to take a moment to gather up his thoughts for the moment before speaking.

He was able to announced to the security officer his intentions. "We were brought here through your vortex." He stated with his comments. In order to protect himself and the rest of his crew-members.

"We know Captain Daniels. I will be taking you to the council chambers to speak with the president in charge of this cities council region."

"Thank you. However I have. As with the rest of my group has a number of questions that needs to be asked. Just maybe we will be able to compromised some sort of a deal to help us out."

Tamara was having some sort of trepidation for when it came to his request. "All of your questions will be answered for the most part. Including when the next group arrives from the Seaview."

Captain Daniels was some what confused to his statement. "I don't understand. What other men are you talking about?" He asked feeling some what mortified that others had been caught into the vortex like them.

"As I said. All of your questions will be answered. Please all of you. Come this way." Everyone gathered themselves together. In order to follow. It would seem they will be taking some sort of monorail system. Tamara tells everyone to please sit in their seats and place on the security belts. Mentioning about the speed with the transportation system.

Daniels could tell by the looks of his men. Including Tompkins were scared wondering what was going to be next. Once everyone was settled into their seats. The transportation vehicle started to move quickly through the glass tubes passing by the huge complex of buildings with-in.

It was truly amazing for when it came to the designs of the cities passing them by.

Captain Daniels needed to keep on swallowing. Feeling his stomach started to bother him some what from the speed. Otherwise he would be taking in the entire situation. Noticing the security officer having to be feeling some what relaxed. Along with talking softly to one of his officers next to him. He wasn't able to hear in just what was being said for now.

And in his opinion. These people seem not to be dangerous by his standards. Unless it was all just a cover. To hide the real truth of the situation from them.

It was moments later

When all of a sudden the transportation device started to slow down to a crawl. This is when Captain Daniels adrenaline started to pick up some what. Not knowing what to expect next. Once the door opens onto the level the security officer had chosen.

It would be a moment later. For when Tamara announced to everyone seated. To unbuckle their security belts in order to move out of the car and onto the level desire.

There would be a number of passengers waiting to get onto it as well. Otherwise there were a number of stares directed at the group from the Sea-Land cargo vessel. Before everyone went about their business. As if nothing actually was going on for the particular moment.

Walking past several buildings looking like a shopping mall of sorts. Before stopping short. There were English words saying something on the front. The Hall Of Justice.

Tamara orders his men to stay with everyone. He went inside to speak with someone of authority for the next few moments.

Giving Captains Daniels and the others to wonder their fate.

Taking only a few moments. Tamara walks back out once more. Walking over to his men and telling them. They can now leave. Since the council members will be taking over the matter for now.

There would be a few of his security officers started to grumbled. They weren't taking it very lightly. Having been ordered to leave. Otherwise they'd no choice in the matter. If they wanted to continue on with their work.

Since Tamara was being some what forceful with the request. No doubt orders from the council chamber. Including with the formality that goes with his position of being in charge.

"All right Captain Daniels. Council leader Carin is ready to speak with you and your group. Please be sure to ask him your questions." He goes to open the door. For where they are inside a hallway leading down into the Hall of Justice main entrance.

Walking quickly. Even though everyone were able to see all of the beautiful paintings on both sides of the hall entrance.

Remarkable.

As soon as the entire group reach the desire door. Tamara tells the group to go on in. Since he was no longer needed. Walking away slowly from them.

Inside the council chamber. Was just as beautiful with paintings scatter throughout the council chamber.

Seeing a number of council members sitting at a long marble table in the middle of the room.

It was Carin to be the first to speak. Carin having to be the head council member in charge. Captain Daniels walking in closer. Noticing that Carin had to be in his late sixties. His hair fully grey. Even though he'd looked rather milky white for when it came to his pigment of his skin. They all did. Matter of fact. All eight of them to be precise sitting quietly. Accept for Carin. Since he started to speak with everyone of the group from the Sea-land vessel and explaining some what why. They were here in the first place.
