White Out
Chapter Sixth
President Yuri Simba of Africa currently in charge of the Alliance. He was inside his office of the United Nations building working late. He had gotten a rash of calls from Alliance countries and including the United States about a strange sighting and loud noise afterwards.
He was shaking his head with reading the reports. He just didn't understand it as to why this was happening now. Pouring himself a quick drink from his bar in the corner of his office. There was a phone call coming in on line five that is reserved for the Nelson Institute.
Its been awhile since that line had been used and including the previous president having resigned. Placing his Rum and coke on the desk. He went to pick on the phone after pressing the red button for line five. "President Simba of the United Nations and Alliance officer. How can I help you?" He asked in a calm tone with his over all demeanor.
"It's Admiral Harriman Nelson of the Seaview. I need to ask you a question about Darien and where he might be at the moment." He says with a sweat breaking out on his brow from his cabin.
"Matter of fact. I received a message from one of his couriers telling me that Darien will be back on Earth with-in the next week or so to settle a matter with one of the Alliance countries. Otherwise Admiral no doubt you probably heard about the strange sightings of a object moving quickly and making a loud noise afterwards?"
"Actually I have Mr. President. The entire west coast has been placed on alert with the National Guard. Meanwhile the Seaview and I will be arriving in Juno, Alaska to deliver communications equipment. And they to are having the same type of issues in spite the fact that one of their Air Force planes have crashed."
Shaking his head with disgust. "I am very sorry to hear this Admiral. I really don't know what to do accept call a emergency meeting with all of the Alliance representatives until Darien arrives back to Earth." He rumbles with taking a small sip of his rum and coke and almost choking on it.
"Are you all right Mr. President?" Nelson asked with concern over the phone.
"Yes, yes. I am fine. I just took sip of a drink and started to choke a little. Any rate I will let you know on when this meeting will be since you're a member yourself. Good day sir." He hangs up the phone to get to work on having his night staff to call all of the Alliance representatives. Hopefully the meeting will be taking place in the United Nations.

Meanwhile in Juneau, Alaska
Autopsy had been done on Areosmith and placed inside the cooler until his body can be shipped to his family. A full report was sent over to the quarters of General Epstein with having to retired for the evening and leaving his two replacements in charge.
Receiving the report by courier. He started to read the five page report with placing back his glasses to see with being tired. After a few minutes of reading, he just couldn't believed it that Areosmith died from a electrical charge to his heart along with the entire plane crashing quickly.
There was even a small trace of radiation coating the inside of the cock pit no doubt the second reason he died as well making it confusing as to why this was happening.
He gets up from his small recliner after leaving the report on the table next to it. He needed a night cap before going to bed. This report was going to lay heavy on his chest until he wakes up in the morning. Looking outside his window of his quarters, it was still snowing hard and windy blowing the snow all around. The base was still currently on full alert after what happened with the crash and sighting on the radar/satellite screens.
