Chapter 5 - The Plan
"So what is this master inception job that it's taken three days to get information about here Cobb?" Eames asked
"It's sort of a sibling rivalry thing. A brother who owns a hospital, and a sister, who was supposed to own the hospital."
"Wait, how does that work?" Gianna asked
"The Neil siblings. Children of Michael Neil, who was the Hospital's Administrator, He died two years ago leaving his hospital in the care of their youngest son instead of their eldest born as was written in the first will written, four years prior. He changed the will last minute, and he became a little...Sexist in his old age. He fired most of the female staff and told his daughter she'd never be good enough to own the company and that he'd be leaving it to Gregory, the son." Arthur read from the files Cobb had given him.
"She must have been heartbroken." Ariadne said, depressed sounding.
"It's been said that Zoe, the daughter, was in fact quite broken up but never admitted it, and continued to work in the hospital trying to work her way back up to the board of trustees after being demoted from top surgeon to night-shift nurse by her father." Cobb explained.
"Man, if that had been me, I'd have been pissed." Gianna said.
"Yes, and it said that he ranked under her in surgery and it came as a shock to everyone to hear of him taking over the company." Eames chimed in
"So, why exactly does whoever need to our help, need our help?" Ariadne asked
"Well, Zoe doesn't like the things that Gregory is trying to do to the hospital. He's pretty much spending all their funds on high-tech utilities that have no promise of ever working right, just because they look 'cool', and is trying to boost medical costs way up there," Cobb explained "so she wants us to go into his mind and plant in his brain how disappointed his father would be by his decisions and to back down from being the leader and let his sister take over to set the company right and get their funds back."
"So how many levels do we have to go in?" Yusuf asked
"Two at the very most. One to tell him everything he's doing is wrong, and one to tell him to give up the company."
"Seems simple enough." Gianna said
"Nothing is ever simple when it comes to inception, love."
"So, Ariadne, I need to make a hospital maze, with multiple floors of intricate twists and turns. Yusuf, I need you to make a sedative that'll put us out for at least 5 hours. Arthur, I need more information on these siblings and their father and/or family members. Eames, we'll see if you need to forge anyone, if not you can assist Gianna on her first mission."
"I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself." Gianna said, angry that he didn't trust her.
"I know, it's just better t have more than one." Cobb said, sympathetically.
"Right, two heads are better than one, darling."
"Not really. It's kind of deformed and somewhat of a mutation." Gianna retorted.
"At any rate, the next time we'll catch them while their out at the same time is, they're taking tours of hospitals under cover to figure out how they run, so his hospital can over power the others. He's taking his sister along to pose as his assistant so it's not so suspicious. They'll be doing that in about2 and a half months time, so we have a while beforehand to prepare ourselves, also so we can observe their way of doing things to make this as seamless as possible."
"There's just one problem." Gianna interrupted. Everyone turned to look at her, expectantly. "...I'm afraid of doctors and needles and or anything medical related."
"Perfect." Eames sighed out.
A/N: there you have itttt.
*sigh* I'm having a really rough time developing Gianna's and Eames' relationship... :\
Anyway I hope you liked it, I'm not ecstatic about it but I'm not displeased soooo.
Good? Bad? Lemme know!
