Colonel Mcnamara was reporting to President Wilkins on the phone. Wilkin seemed his usual pleasant self, although Mcnamara feared his occassional anger.

Wilkins: So there was no way to retrieve the orb?

Mcnamara: No sir. Riley Finn says the only option ws to destroy it, to keep our enemies from getting it.

Wilkins: So, it eems you made the best of a bad situation.

Mcnamara: We can't eliminate the possibility of the escaped hostile telling the potential slayer what he knows. But after this I believe now is the time to make an official alliane with their group.

Wilkins: Do what you can. And how's Adam coming along?

Mcnamara: Professor Walsh says it's mere days away from completion. But with all due respect, this plan has its dangers.

Wilkins: I appreciate your imput colonel, but I've already made my decision. Continue with the 314 project.

Mcnamara: Yes sir.
