"Would you like something to drink, sir?" Will looked up from his international-business seat. The plane ride was just getting underway.
"A rum and coke, please." The attendant smiled and nodded. Will took out a folder, manila and very thick. Within it had info on Yuichi Misato, and his son, Suguru. Will looked back over the death report. 'An unexpected explosion caused swift death. He died while inspecting the factory in which the explosion took place.' Will frowned; something didn't seem right, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the glass put down. The agent looked up, smiled, and nodded. Looking back down, he flipped to the papers on Suguru. He was just a kid; mother died a couple of years ago. Now he was alone.
Will flipped to the papers on the kid's finances. Everything was left to him by his parents. But it looks like the organization Misato was working for was taking care of all the finances. Fishy. Will knew he'd have to look into this. Furthermore, he would have to make sure this would be invested well, considering Suguru would be living off of it for over ten years. Will had already set up a college and savings fund for Suguru, funded by being the FBI's best agent with no wife or kids to add to his expenses.
But something else caught Will's eye. Misato's life insurance. It was not surprising he would have good life insurance, with Suguru's mother being dead. But this seemed significantly higher than what Will would have expected, especially for an inspector. The little part of his mind that tells him when something is off starting ringing.
'But,' he thought as he sipped his rum and coke, 'that was something to figure out later.' Thus, he opened up his book on Japanese and started to review it.
. . .
Will walked into the police station by the airport. He just hopped his Japanese was half-way decent.
"Hello!" The officer at the desk greeted him in Japanese.
"Hello. I am agent William Migdal of the FBI. I am here for my equipment," Will said in his best Japanese.
"Ah, yes, I have been expecting you, agent Migdal. Please come with me." The woman led him to a back room full of briefcases. The woman then left Will to the room. He opened each briefcase and checked everything that was there. The first briefcase held the communication system, the new UFS system. This consisted of a new high-tech earpiece, which was small and discreet enough to be unseeable without looking for it, thus allowing him to wear it wherever he went. This connected wirelessly to a smartphone, which in turn connected to a powerful satellite antenna in a curved enclosure to go on the waist.
In the other briefcase he had mostly weapons. A modified and internally silenced Five-seveN, complimenting his P90 in another case, to use as a main side-arm to be worn on his waist. The Five-seveN had a magazine inside of it with anti-personnel 5.7x28mm rounds designed for less piercing and more stopping power, and he carried another magazine on him with the same rounds. He also carried an extra magazine loaded with powerful, high-piercing bullets commonly referred to as "SKV rounds." He also had a powerful anti-armor .50 action express pistol to be worn on his left front on missions, though it was too bulky to normally carry every day. This was designed to take down any "odd" SKV threats the Five-seveN didn't have the stopping power for.
Beyond the two pistols, he had an assortment of weapons he may need. They were all customized special-forces weapons: an M4 with holographic sight and fore grip packed with high-grain full-metal-jacket rounds. There was also a Remington 870 with special shells with less, but bigger and tougher pellets. Finally, there was a 7mm high-powered rifle for any very long-range shots.
However, one large case was still unopened. Upon opening it, Will found something very welcome: an RPG-A10. The RPG-A10 was designed to be an infantry-deployable weapon against any SKV armored vehicles. Significantly larger than an RPG-7, it was a beast Will was glad to have. He never planned to use it, but when dealing with SKV, you have to expect the unexpected.
He put on the UFS communication system, as well as the Five-seveN and its two magazines. He wore an under-shirt harness to support it all. He then put everything else in the rented car and was off to the small home he had purchased on the same street as Suguru.
