The snow was beginning to stop when Leon arrived at the dinner, his jet black car standing out against the snow that painted itself on it. His brown leather jacket damp with the snow that had melted from the cars heater. Just as he was walking in he saw David motion him over to a booth in the very back.
"Leon, I'd like to introduce you to" the man began.
"Angela, what are you doing here?" Leon asked.
"I take it you two know each other?" David said.
"We worked together during the scandal involving with the Willfarma bombing and the g-virus. You want to tell him why we're hear?" she said to David.
"The president couldn't make it because Ashley is going off to collage and he went with her so he wanted me to tell you in his absence. We're forming a small, ultra secret special ops team. Almost kind of like the guys you encountered in Raccoon City, only you're not carrying out the dirty work of a evil pharmaceutic company hellbent on world domination. We live in dark times, and everyday more and more of our brave soldiers fight against tyranny so that we can live to see another day. By the way, I'd also like you to meet Sargent Gabriel Blake and Lieutenant Amy Harrison" said Fletcher.
"Pleasure to meet you Commander. I've heard a lot about you" said Blake.
"Whoa, whoa, who said anything about me leading a team of secret agents against a terrorist organization bent on the destruction of our country. I've already done that once, now granted it was a solo op but I don't want to go against that type of threat again" Leon said trying to argue the point.
"Listen, Leon, you've got the most experience out of all of us. The team needs you on this" Angela said, trying to persuade him to join the team.
"I'm not the only one! You have to!" he said.
"Yea, an air port terminal over run with zombies and my brother Curtis, I didn't even kill him, you did!" she replied, trying not to make people stare.
Leon clenched both his fists together and sighed, keeping himself from getting angry.
"Leon let me remind you that you have no choice but to join. The president himself said that out of all the different candidates for the team leader, we ended up picking you. Your skills in combat are undeniable, and we haven't seen an agent with skills like yours in years. Plus you have an extensive amount of knowledge in BOW's. Plus you've also had first hand experience with them. Hell I wish we had a thousand more people like you" Dave said, hoping to talk some since into him.
"Fine, but only because the president said so" Leon said reluctantly.
"Thank you, I'm sure the president will be happy to hear of this" Dave said with a smile.
"Just one thing though, We're going to need someone to be a mission briefer, and I want someone good, someone I can trust out in the field" Leon said.
"We already have someone picked out. And yes, you can trust her" he said as he got up to leave.
"Oh, and the president wanted me to tell you this; God speed Commander Kennedy, you're going to need it."
