Clearance

CIA Headquarters 4: 30 p.m.

Abbott is finally about to leave his office. Work was finally over and to him, he just wanted to get out. It has been a hell of a day. Suddenly, someone opens the door. It was CIA director Ezra Kramer.

"It's been a hell of a day. So, if you excuse me…"

"Why didn't you tell me Abbott? It's CIA protocol."

"What are you talking about?" Abbott replied jokingly.

"I'm talking about your dragon project. You're supposed to submit this information to our database. Oh yeah and negotiating with them, we don't even know if they're an enemy. Christ! You just committed treason!"

"It's not like they're terrorist. Who told you anyway?"

"You're coordinator. He wants to know about this Project Hydra. If I were you, I'd give him the information. This is why we have databases… to put data in them. Did I make myself clear?"

"Understood."

"Good. One more act like that and I'll have you suspended." Kramer said as he walked out through the door.

Abbott was pissed off. This was really sensitive information and he could not just send it to his subordinates. If he refused, he risks losing his job. He granted the files to the staff at Halifax and thought of a plan to put things in order.

"This'll be a long day."
