Prologue
"I know this is a lot to ask but it is a special occasion" said the first man
"And what is the occasion may I ask Snow" said the other man.
"Duncan, please it is the 100th quarter quell you know that. Besides they will only be gone for about like 10 months" says Snow
"My point precisely I will be available for assassination for that long and some of my rangers will not come back"
"Exactly that's what makes it more interesting" Snow exclaims smiling and excited
"I can't believe I came all the way over here for you to tell me this" Duncan huffs "my answer is the same no period"
"What if I put my peacekeepers on you" Snow says smirking "and then tell them to kill you"
"Then I would be dead and you would not get my answer. This conversation is going to end now" Duncan put emphases on the word now and starts to leave. Suddenly one of Duncan's royal messengers came running into the room.
"I am sorry to interrupt, My Lord, but the rangers have sent a message" he says quickly. Duncan's face turns from angry to curious. He took the letter and read through it quickly. President Snow watched his face intensely as his face fell. Finally Snow couldn't bear it any longer.
"What does it say" he asked like an excited child. Duncan raised his eyebrows at him. He had picked up the move from Halt. It seemed that many people had. Relising how he had said it he quickly smoothed his hair.
"I mean what does it say" he corrected himself and said it in a more officially. Duncan chuckled but quickly became serious.
"Ok I accept" he said then turned and left.
