In his private chambers, the newly appointed Pope, Severio Mortati was having mixed emotions. Of course, he felt like jumping up and down like an excited first-grader because he was just bestowed with the greatest religious honor on Earth.

On the flip side however the media was driving him nuts. "I don't have a clue about anything that happened yesterday. That's why I'm waiting for a few friends to clear it all up for me." He said aloud to himself.

Knock…

Knock…

Knock…

The knocking on his door brought him out of his self-imposed trance. "Yes, who is it?"

"Sir, you have a Mr. Robert Langdon and a Ms. Vittoria Vetra here to see you."

"Ah, yes yes bring them in"

"Now," he thought we can get this show on the road."
