Mission
Briefing: I was attending a business meeting with some
Japanese Zaibatsu in the Nakatomi towers: it was one of those
boring high class parties with a lot of fake smiles and
backstabbing handshakes. During the party, however, a group of
terrorists broke in and declared that we were all being taken
hostages for the sake of the Revolutionary Front of the True
Eagles ideals. This, of course, isn’t something I like, but I have to cope with the fact
since the terrorists are heavy armed and very well trained.
You could think that a group of normal humans, no matter how
well trained, could never stand a fight with a true
Zooanthrope, even if he (or me, in this case) isn’t exactly
what we would call a perfect combat ready member and this is
partially true, however, many factors hinder such a simple
solution. First of all, you cannot know this, but for the
whole world, the super information dealer that answers the
name of Maddalena is nothing more than a legend, a Kaiser Soze
of the information network, and I wasn’t taking part to this
meeting as the secret informer, but as an upper manager of my
firm. My first rule to remain unseen is not to attract the
gaze even of the smallest fly, so it would be careless of me
to break the siege with my own strength for this would be an
extraordinary feat that would draw too much attention. In
short, my identity has to remain covered at all costs, I
cannot openly use any of my powers to escape this situation.
Secondly, there is something wrong in this story: I am always
a step ahead even of our Tyron rivals, never could I be
surprised by such a move, I would have sniffed the weapon
movements and the fake passports to reach United States ten
thousands of miles away and I would have never been here;
however, all this came as a complete surprise to me, things
which I liked even less than the situation I found myself into.
I feel that there is something really fishy going on about
this terrorist action and that this is probably not a
demonstrative act at all. Anyway, your mission objective is
clear and simple: I managed to secretly take control of the
parking lot door command box, once you reach the Nakatomi
towers, I will open it a bit and you’ll be able to enter the
palace. Watch out because all entrances will be under tight
surveillance and if you are to ease your quest you have to
remain in stealth mode as long as possible. After breaking in,
you have to contact me and give me support. You could very
well close your mission at this point by extracting me from
the crisis area. However, it would be nice to understand what
exactly is going on and pay them back for this little
surprise.
