Amendment Signing and Vehicle Inspection

Inside the Presidential Limousine, Brick, Zita and Justine were catching up when Zita sees a peculiar sight.

"Mr. President, I see a helicopter, a jet, a dune buggy, a motorcycle and a van over at the Senate building. Any idea what's going on?"

The President replies, "That would have to be Team Hawk meeting with the Senate Subcommittee. From my understanding, there's to be a demonstration. I'm sure get some kind of notice. Quite frankly, I'd like to see what all they can do."

Brick nods and says, "So would I, Mr. President. So would I.." Justine and Zita nod their agreement as well.

This prompts the President to chuckle and say, "In any case, it's bound to be quite an experience we won't ever forget." Little do they realize just how true that statement would be.

A short time later, they arrive at the signing ceremony, flashbulbs going off all around them. Brick maintains a close proximity to the President as much as he can. Upon reaching the desk and seating himself with Justine and Zita by his side, he starts his speech.

"My fellow Americans, this not a happy day for me. As much as I appreciate Justice, I had hoped this day would never come. But ever since 9/11 happened, we're constantly reminded that there are people out there that hate our nation, our way of life and ultimately us. What happened on 9/11 was essentially a hate crime. To prevent such another horrible act by sadistic individuals, I'm signing this Amendment to signify that any non-American that kills an American based on nationality will be harshly punished in accordance with the Special Circumstances Statute." That said, the President signs the Amendment, both with a heavy heart and a sense of hope that it will never be needed.

At the Senate building, the team has put their helmets back on and are now walking back outside. Once they get outside, the noise is so loud that they cannot hear the tape recorder click off. They each head for their respective vehicles, with Ninja walking with War Bird toward the helicopter. Norman opens the back door and guides the Subcommittee around the massive aircraft.

"Over here is our spare Control Module. Basically, this makes Sky Base a mobile Command Center. It's tied in with the motorcycle's systems and is a backup Control Module should the unthinkable happen. Like Command Center being either destroyed or darked out. I believe that's in my notes, Director Kirby."

"That it is, Norman. Please proceed."

Norman nods and goes on. "Over here is our armory. We have just about any kind of ordnance we may require for field operations. Mainly comprises of small arms like pistols, rifles and shotguns. It also has bulletproof vests for non-operatives in case they want to see some action. Below us is the storage for ammunition for the gatling guns on Sand Hawk and War Bird. Right now, the cannons on both vehicles are loaded with tranq rounds. The only vehicle with a potentially lethal weapon is Street Hawk. And it's the phase-particle beam. Luckily, though, the power level is adjustable. However, in one case, the lowest setting turned out to be fatal for one enemy. Gill, the mutated fish-boy. Needless to say, it wasn't a pleasant experience for Ron."

Mannion chuckles and says, "I don't doubt that one bit. Shall we move on to the other vehicles?" The others, including Norman, nod and exit the plane. They examine War Bird, make some notes and nod at Bonnie and Hirotaka in approval. They then proceed onto Rolling Base and Sand Hawk, leaving Street Hawk for last.

As Undersecretary Miller examines the cycle, a small item falls out of his pocket. Not moving his head, Ron looks at the item and sees a tape recorder on the ground. He then mentally shrugs it off, thinking nothing of it. The Undersecretary then sees the recorder, smiles nervously and picks it up. At this, Ron gets a closer look at the contents. A cassette, partially used.

He then gives Norman a slight wave and, in a quiet voice, says, "Norman, I think the Undersecretary may have recorded our names onto the tape recorder."

Norman nods his understanding and says, "Undersecretary Miller, would you please play the recording on the cassette? Just for my team's peace of mind."

Sweat beading on his forehead, Undersecretary Miller nervously backs away from Norman, saying, "This is absurd! Why would I have a tape recorder?"

Mannion replies, "I don't exactly know, Mr. Undersecretary, but I am curious as well."

Miller looks at Director Kirby and says, "Please, I've done nothing wrong."

Kirby shakes his head and says, "Only one way to prove it. Rewind and play the tape, Mr. Undersecretary. Pray that it does not contain the team's identities. If it does, you're in R-triple D."

Dr. Director asks, "What's that?"

"Real Deep Doo-Doo."

Swallowing hard, Miller rewinds the cassette and starts the playback. The team and all involved are angered when they hear their names coming from the recorder's speaker.

Norman yells in anger and slams Miller against Rolling Base, screaming, "Who told you to do it? Who frickin' told you? Talk, you jackass!"

Swallowing hard again, Miller says, "It was an Agent of GJ. An Agent named..." Suddenly, a shot rings out and nails Miller right in the chest. Ron and the others bring out their handguns and sweep the area while covering Norman and Jane. Mannion checks Miller's pulse, but finds none. Undersecretary Arthur Miller had just been killed.

Norman then starts shaking, saying, "It was my fault. I shouldn't have done it like that."

He is then startled by a slug from Jane, saying, "Don't talk like that, Norman! It wasn't your fault! There was no way you could have known what was going to happen! He knew what he was in for when he recorded the meeting. More than likely, whoever killed him had intended to do so right from the start."

He then sees the others nod in agreement and returns the nod, not quite feeling better, but reassured nonetheless. At that point, the Coroner arrives to pick up the Undersecretary's corpse. Not a single word is spoken until the Coroner's wagon is gone.

Two blocks away, a Global Justice Agent puts his binoculars down and says, "Phase 2 complete. Now for Phase 3." At that, the Agent packs up the sniper rifle and leaves the rooftop knowing that sooner or later, the Police will have figured out where the shot had come from.
