The secretary in Alexi Volkoff office was upset and on the phone with Alexi's lawyer.
"Calm down Volga what are you trying to say?" The lawyer was in the lobby of the hotel when the entourage from the states arrived.
Chuck immediately flashed on the man and more curious was that he could hear the conversation across the crowded lobby. Chuck signal for Casey to stop as Chuck looked straight at the lawyer.
"Tell me again Volga what is wrong…Damn these terrible phone connections. I wonder is the phones in the hotel any better?" The lawyer asked the clerk who had just given Carina her room and was still flirting with the Management.
"You were saying sir?" as he turned to the very red faced Lawyer.
Carina sauntered away as the clerk tried to calm the lawyer.
"I'm so sorry sir. We are having an outage at this time. I do not think there is phone service anywhere in this area. BT has crews out but they are not certain where the problem lies. The nearest town with Phone service is Dunwoody about a 20 min drive down the A2 I have to tell you that having constructions too. There are many delays happening as the road is torn up." The clerk said. I'm so sorry but I must wait on other guests.
He pointed at the long line waiting to check in. The lawyer scowled then shoved his hands in his pockets. He was going to the local pub for a brew.
Casey over heard the exchange and thought to himself. Good old HQ a great way to isolate the area, Construction.
Chuck was thinking he should offer the distraught man his sat phone. It did not rely on the Phone service only the Satellite in orbit. That way they could capture what was going to be said to Alexi's lawyer.
"Excuse me…I heard you are having need of completing a phone call?" Chuck said.
"Oh my goodness another American in this god forsaken place bless you kind sir. Yes I have a very important phone call to make. Do you know any way I can do that?" The Lawyer asked.
"Yes by the way my name is Chuck. I happen to have a sat phone. I find it better when I am overseas." Chuck said.
"Please may I borrow it?" The lawyer pleaded.
"Sure I will have to dial the number…This phone is unlike other types of phones." Chuck said.
"Sure Sure I need you to dial 7 for country code then 495 555 7777." The man said.
Chuck dialed the special code for recording then the number given. He had his earwig in his ear then handed it to the Lawyer.
"Here you go it is ringing. I will be right over there." Chuck said as Casey grimaced then pushed Chuck to the side while Sarah was battling with the clerk over accommodations for Chuck.
The Lawyer was reconnected with Volga.
"Ok Volga I have a good connect please tell me what is going on?" The lawyer asked.
"Alexi left on a business trip 4 days ago and has not returned. He said he would return. I'm scared none of his associates in LA have picked up their phones either. I fear for Alexi's safety. Even Frost that whore has not checked in. I feel something bad has happened. I think it is time for Red Dragon." Volga said.
"Are you perfectly sure that is necessary?" The Lawyer asked.
"Da…Red Dragon must be implemented. It is our only hope to save the company. If the other oligarchs learn of Alexi's disappearance they will descend on us as locust." Volga said.
"Oh very well I have the protocol here in my briefcase let me open the seal envelope." He said.
The envelope Chuck could see was labeled Red Dragon.
"Ok here are the codes please enter them in Alexi's computer. WSYTFFFA%&EDOTIZON," The lawyer said.
"Yes You need to speak to Hydra." Volga coached.
"Yes Of course. I Erick Riley do now take possession of all of Volkoff Industries and to hold them in trust until the rightful owner or heir can be located." The Lawyer said.
"Voice print accepted" the female voice said over the line.
Volga now got on the line.
"Ok Mr. Riley you can now open envelope 2." She said.
Riley opened the envelope and was astonished to see the young lady's face he was going to see tonight. It showed that she Vivian MacArthur was Alexi's Volkoff's long lost Daughter. She would need to take control of the company. Armed with this knowledge the Lawyer finished up the call and gave the phone back to Chuck. He muttered something about kismet then left.
Sarah finally got what she wanted and moved over to Chuck to see the lawyer disappear outside.
"Chuck what is wrong?" Sarah asked.
"Alexi knew about Vivian. He has named her the head of Volkoff's industries. Mr. Riley is going to talk to her tonight." Chuck said.
"So we have to change game plans" Bryce said joining the conversation.
"Yes but not here contact Barker we need to go somewhere secure." Chuck said.
Bryce got through the Barker and a few minutes later the Van arrived and took Chuck and the major players of the team away. They left Morgan at the tender mercies of Carina. She looked like she was about to eat him whole.
\\\\\
"I got your text Mr. Anderson what is wrong?" Barker asked.
"We need to get somewhere secure…Plans have definitely changed." Chuck said taking charge.
"Of course we are just a few miles from Dunwoody Royal Air Force base I know the commander there are secure facilities there." Barker said.
Barker drove to the main gate and was waived through. They moved down a ramp then parked the Van deep under ground. They got out and were led to another operation center.
"Welcome to HQ." Barker said as he led then to a secure room.
Chuck set up his laptop and hooked into the Orion network. Soon they were facing the diminutive General and Stephen was next to her.
"Hello Son what changed?" Orion asked.
"General Dad…Alexi knew of Vivian I was able to listen in the conversation between Alexi's secretary who had nothing nice to say about Frost and his Lawyer Mr. Riley. It seems like Alexi anticipated being captured. He has sent Mr. Riley to convince her to take control of all of Volkoff industries." Chuck said.
"That does change things indeed. Charles you need to speak to Vivian first. Explain everything how you are the Son of her Father's good friend Stephen then show her Hartley's will. Then convince her to help us." Orion said.
"Bryce you have to stay in the Van Old Buddy" Chuck said as the General approved the changes.
Secretly Sarah was happy to learn of the changes. Bryce was a bit grabby on the dance floor. This way she did not have to dance and could corner Riley in a conversation allowing Carina to double team him. That would give Chuck a long time before Riley was free.
After all the plans were approved the General gave her blessing and cut communications.
"Ok Barker everything is as before but now you need to erase Mr. Anderson and get me into the invite list." Chuck said.
"Not a problem we have an inside person as her private secretary. It is only a matter of time before your invitation will arrive at the hotel." Barker said.
"Your doing great on the logistics" Chuck said praising Barker.
Agent Barker had heard of the unorthodoxy of Agent Carmichael. Now witnessing it first hand he knew that his reputation was warranted. Heaven help Vivian MacArthur. He thought she will be doing anything he said after a few minutes.

Barker drove them back to the hotel. There was a suit waiting for Chuck in his size hanging there.
"They think of everything." Chuck said as Sarah smirked at him.
"Alone at last" she said as she carried him to the bed.
Sarah climbed on the bed next to him. They slowly and methodically brought her to climax several times. Chuck was able to move his legs while Sarah rode him as an old rented mule. Sarah seemed to have lots of sexual frustration to work out. Chuck did not mind it at all as long as he could caress and kiss her luscious lips.
Once they were finished. Chuck got taken into the shower. Chuck was able to stand on his own two feet.
"It's a miracle" Sarah said hugging and kissing him.
That caused Chuck to lose balance but Sarah prevented them from crashing all the way to the floor.
"Sarah I think I should sit on the chair for now." Chuck said with his legs wobbling.
"Right of course Chuck I'm so sorry…" Sarah said.
Chuck cut her off with a kiss and they proceeded to wash each other clean.
Chuck exited and was able to walk a few steps to the bed and placed himself in a healing trace. Sarah got dressed and exited the room to confer with Carina.
Sarah still wanted to rub it in to her girl friend that Chuck still had it in the bedroom dept.
Sarah knocked on her door. Carina answered.
"Hush Walker what do you want? Martin is asleep." Carina said.
"His name is Morgan Carina…You can not keep me out in this hallway it is girl talk." Sarah said conspiratorially.
"Girl Talk well why did you not say so…" Carina said as she shut the door,
Sarah could hear Carina yelling at Martin to get out.
A red faced Morgan emerged and saw Sarah.
"I swear nothing happened. I was asleep…You have to believe me…Oh Alex is going to kill me!" Morgan muttered as he went to the room he shared with Casey.
"Nothing happened huh?" Sarah said as she entered.
The bed was unmade but there was only one body impression that of the bearded wonder. Morgan had been telling the truth. Sarah was impressed over her friend's restraint.
"So he was not lying…" Sarah murmured.
"Yes he was not lying but don't go spreading any rumors…It seems Martin has some hidden attributes…He is a good listener… What you think I can not help myself? Walker you have much to learn about me…But enough about me and Morgan…What sort of girl talk are you wanting to impart?" Carina said as she sat on the bed then curled her legs under her.
"OK well you know Chuck is healing very rapidly…It did not affect him in the bedroom dept and mean that man still has it going!" Sarah gushed. "But Carina that is not the best part he is able to stand!"
"What Walker are you sure? He stood…I knew old Chuckles had some hidden talent but standing after this close to dying? That is…" Carina said.
"A Miracle I know…So what are you going to wear to the dinner?" Sarah said looking over her wardrobe.
"I was thinking this Orange number it brings out my hair and other attributes." Carina said.
"Oh that is perfect I'm going to be wearing the purple number Chuck bought me in Milan." Sarah said.
"Oh I love that dress on you…You will knock 'em dead in that." Carina gushed.
The girls talk ended as they both realized that they needed to get ready for their respective dates. Sarah slipped out and ended up back in the room she shared with Chuck. He was coming out of the healing trace as she entered.
"Come on Chuck…It is time to get you dressed," Sarah said laying out his outfit for the night.
"Please Sarah I may not stand very long but I can dress myself." Chuck asserted.
"Ok Chuck I will be right over there if you need me…" Sarah said hovering.
Chuck had to laugh to himself…He would have never imagined the great Sarah Walker hovering over him then waiting on his beck and call.
"Ok Sarah I will call you if I need you." Chuck said.
Sarah now turned her attention to making herself look so alluring. She concentrated so hard that Chuck had to tap her on the shoulder.
"So how do I look?" Chuck asked still standing being even steadier on his feet.
The healing trances were working miracles Sarah thought.
"Chuck you look marvelous though your bow tie is crooked. Let me fix that." Sarah said. "There all finished…I just need to slip on my dress and heels and I will be ready."
Sarah finished dressing and gave a kiss for good luck. Chuck tiring of standing lowered himself into his chair. This night was going to be fun.
