Chantinelle looks around for the CDU builing. Jessalyn blinks and glances over at Chantinelle, standing next to Di'an and leaning against his arm. "Good to see you too." You say, "Well I think we better enter the building." You climb up the steps and enter the CDU building through the transparasteal doors. Lobby - CDU Building -- Plaxton City, Caspar The lobby is an incredibly large room that could easily be used as a small stadium. In the very center of the room stands a statue of the founder of the CDU. On the walls surrounding you are murals depicting various scenes from Casparian history. Tiled into the floor is the ceast of the CDU. Around the perimeter of the large lobby are life-sized statues of Caspar's past leaders. You look up into the towering dome above you and see what looks like ornate stained glass that seems to go on forver. A hallway to the east leads to the Senate. To the west is a hallway that leads to the executive office building annex. Contents: Alstuner Presidential Guards - Flag Squad Obvious exits: - Caspar Meeting Hall ut - Blake Street - Executive Office Building You see a tall man who seems to be in his early thirties. He has short blond hair and piercing blue eyes. This man has a well toned build and seems to be in top health. He wears the uniform of Caspar's top brass, an impressive black uniform and a royal bl ue jacket with gold epaulets. You see the CDU Fleet Task Force insignia on his right sleeve shoulder an on his left shoulder he sports the rank insignia of Vice Admiral that for the moment has a black cross on it. On his right arm he wears a black band bo rdered in royal blue. He wears many medals from his years of service and on his right pocket he wears the starcluster that indicates he once was a starfighter pilot. He wears black gloves and high black boots. It seems he wears some sort of protective gear under his coat and at his side is a blaster pistol. Vance pages: have fun. Chantinelle nods slightly to the Admiral and salutes.

Meeting Hall -- Plaxton City, Caspar This room extends for a great distance to a large podium in front of a great window showing the view of Plaxton City outside. A row of chairs is set behind the podium. There is a large area that is set open for events in Caspar to setup. Rows of chairs are lined in a half circle to occupy about 200 people. Large trees and other plant life are inside here as a few birds fly past. Lights hang from the ceiling and the ceiling itself being angled like a vaulted ceiling.

Chantinelle looks around in the round and smiles, "Well at first Gentlemen,let me introduce me!" Chantinelle smiles and glances around, "I am Chantinelle Thistleborn and the current imperial represant on Caspar. But please just call me Chanti." Jessalyn glances around a bit nervously. "Chanti, you have met my husband, haven't you?" Alstuner nods Chantinelle looks astonished at Jessa, "Of course, I have met the Ambassador." *nods slightly to him.* Jessalyn looks with concern at her husband and leans up to whisper to him. Di'anCecht nods, "I am certrain we're all familiar with your credentials....and of course we have met..." Alstuner looks to Dian and Jess. "Umm, Ambassador, shouldn't your wife wait outside?" Di'anCecht whispers something back to her. Chantinelle sits down on the large podium, putting some folders and technical devices on it. Jessalyn leans back on her heels and glances back at Chantinelle, a slight frown on her face. Chantinelle hmmms, "Well but I didn't have the pleasure to be introduced to the Admiral here." Di'anCecht nods, "Perahps it might be best.." he frowns a little his wife's reaction to chantinelles. Chantinelle turns her glance between Jessa and Di, showing no expression on her face. Alstuner bows my appologies Ambassador Thistleborn...umm chanti...I'm Admiral Rahnke, Commander of the Fleet Task Force. Di'anCecht purses his lips, "What exactly do you wish to speak with us about?" Chantinelle smiles, "Well after my opinion Miss Jessalyn may stay, I have no problems with her presence." Chantinelle turns to her folders and searches something, she murmurs to herself, "Just a sec, just a sec..." Alstuner puts his hand up "I do, if this is a matter of Caspar seciurity, Ambasador Dian should know better than.... Di'anCecht looks at his wife, then at Alstuner, "She hasn't quite mentioned what she's about Al, we should let her speak her mind before we decide what to do..." Jessalyn's eyes remain focused on Chantinelle. She crosses her arms over her chest and sighs deeply. "I don't mean to cause a problem.." She gives a sharp glace in Alstuner's direction. Alstuner phewms Alstuner says, "My appologies, but matters of this nature are to be conducted this way....I shouldn't have to explain this." Jessalyn's eyes narrow. "I have no problem with leaving, but I did not know there was anything of a sensitive nature going on here, admiral." Chantinelle breaks her silence, "Oh did I tell you that I record this meeting?" Di'anCecht hmms "So why have you called this meeting chanti?" Chantinelle oooops, "I didn't tell? *looks around astonished* "Well I think you all know the famous General Veers?" Alstuner nods Jessalyn frowns and turns to leave the room. Di'anCecht hmms, "the name sounds familiar..." he looks at Jessalyn leaving. Di'anCecht nods, "Okay, yes I remember now..." Jessalyn opens the door and walks out of the Meeting Hall. Jessalyn has left. Alstuner says, "a fine military officer." Chantinelle looks behind Jessa, "this wasn't my idea!" Chantinelle looks at Alstuner waiting for an answer. Di'anCecht nods, and only says, "Yes," he looks at Chantinelle, trying to press her to come out with it. Chantinelle smiles, "Well great you know his name. And I think you know too he was a few weeks ago on the GDI Space station?" Di'anCecht nods. Alstuner nods "I think I may have seen him in passing...what is your point ambassador? Di'anCecht says, "Forgive the Admiralhese are trying times. I too, would like to know what you mean by all this... Is he to pay us a visiit?" Chantinelle hmmms, "whats the point? You can't imagine this? I thougt always the CDU is resonsible for the GDI, isn't it?" (OOC) Alstuner says, "Err, responsible???? ;)" Di'anCecht nods, "Yes, was there an incident involving him that we should have known about? was he injured?" Alstuner waits for more. (OOC) Chantinelle says, "Well the GDI is managed by CDU?" (OOC) Di'anCecht says, "yes it is" Shain opens the door and walks in from the lobby. Shain has arrived. Chantinelle stops her speech and looks at the newcomer, "Yes Mr.?" A tall woman with short coppery curls tossled around her face. She moves with a business like manner, dressed in a smart tailored outfit: short navy blue jacket and matching pants, a creamy silky blouse beneath, and shiny leather shoes on her feet. her brown eyes peer curiously from beneath the curls. Di'anCecht looks at Shain, "Did I leave something in the offices?" (OOC) Chantinelle says, "Misses!" Alstuner looks at Shain. (OOC) Di'anCecht chuckles. Shain taps a datapad in her arms and raises an eyebrow. "You did indeed, sir." She addresses the Senator. Chantinelle hates to be interrupted and throws an angry glance at the poor officer. Chantinelle hmmms, "Err where was I? Oh yeah, an incident on the GDI according with General Veers? You know nothing about this?" she asks unbelieving. Shain ignores the woman and clears her throat. Di'anCecht nods, "Join us if you would, Shain... this might be a good time to learn about your intended field..." Di'anCecht looks at Shain, "And what was it that I forgot?" Shain hands Di'anCecht a small cloth brown bag. She smiles ruefully and leans over to whisper to him. (OOC) Alstuner says, "Cute." Di'anCecht hmms, listening to her. Di'anCecht smiles broadly, "That's good..." Chantinelle looks angryx again at the officer and waits until she is finished. Di'anCecht points to where the guards are standing, "Stay close enough to listen in, if you would." GAME: You feel a disturbance in the Force. DB save in one minute. Chantinelle hmms, "Are you finished now?" angry that the woman is stealing all the suspense. Shain glances around and frowns, She pats the senator's arm and leaves the room. "Have fun, Senator." Shain opens the door and walks out of the Meeting Hall. Shain has left. Di'anCecht turns his attention back to Chantinelle, "I'm sorry for the interruption." Di'anCecht says, "Where were we?" Chantinelle sighs, "Low discipline in the CDU! But of course it isn't the Empire!" Di'anCecht shrugs, "certainly that's not what you're here to discuss?" Chantinelle sighs again, "You aren't informed about any incident on the GDI according with Gerenal Veers?" (OOC) Di'anCecht probably is icly but hasn't a clue oocly Alstuner says, "No madamn Ambassador not as of yet, but I was just rescently promoted and have not been fully updated on all sensitive matters of state." (OOC) Alstuner says, "OK...I'm going to fly home...it should take me about 10 min. I logged a bit of this.." (OOC) Chantinelle says, "Veers was attacked by terrorists on GDI, they fleed in some skyprays in direction to Caspar and they were covered by ships of the GDI, these are the facts! :(" (OOC) Alstuner says, "BRB." Alstuner has disconnected. [... some minutes...] Alstuner has connected. (OOC) Alstuner says, "Ok..I'm back." Alstuner says, "I'm sorry Madam Ambasador, I have just receved my commision and have not been updated on security issues as of yet...if you would perfer to speak with President Tog on this issue I can arrange a conferance or with my superior." Chantinelle looks into the round, "and?" Chantinelle oohs, "President Tog??? Who is that?" Chantinelle sighs, "Well I see we won't cometo any conclusion today." You say, "So what do you know about this? Why helped GDI ships terrorists to escape?" Di'anCecht says, "According to every report I've received no Caspar personnel were involved in any such incidents though I'm sure you would like to inform me otherwise."" You say, "We have scan records which show GDI ships in action!" Di'anCecht hmms, "Were imperial ships mobilized? It is their duty and right to secure the perimeter of the station." You say, "Of course our ships tried to followed and catch the fleeing terrorists but were stoped by the GDI!" Di'anCecht says, "You keep calling this person/persons a terrorist... I would love to hear you recollection of the terrorist actions... I have reports of course..." Di'anCecht holds the datapad Shain brought him. You say, "These terrorists tried to attack and kill General Veers inthe docking bay of the GDI!" You say, "And so I am here to ask the Gouverment and the Navy why you helped the terrorists in their actions?" Di'anCecht says, "You make accusations ambassador, but when I ask for proof all you do is repeat your accusations." Alstuner says, "Hmm, well as a Representitive of the CDU military all I can say is that No military personel were involved in this act." Chantinelle blushes and gets angry, "Do you say I am lieing?" Q'rii opens the door and walks in from the lobby. Q'rii has arrived. You say, "So you say its true that even the military command was informed about this???" Alstuner says, "Of course we would be happy to assist you in catching the would be terrorists and imposters." Di'anCecht shakes his head, "absolutely not..." Q'rii comes in, brushes his forehead, and looks at the persons inside the room. Chantinelle looks at the newcomer and sighs, "No interuptions again please!" Chantinelle gets now realy angry, "One persons is telling here the difference to the next one!" Q'rii's eyes narrow. "What's going on, Senator?" The regal-looking young man you see is of average height and build for a man in his mid-twenties. His loose jet-black hair falls at ear length to a sudden end around his head. Protruding from his left eye is a small hinge, obviously some part of an aid for him before it was destroyed. He walks with an apparent limp. His clothing includes knee-high glossy black boots, a gray vest over a white collarless shirt, and grayish-violet pants. Upon his left breast is the emblem of the CDU, and a heavily scratched and damaged badge of Assistant Director of Diplomatic Affairs. On the lapel of the vest are two small comlinks. Hanging from his right hip is a shiny new blaster in its holster. GAME: You feel a disturbance in the Force. DB save in one minute. Di'anCecht says, "Ambassador Thistleborn is accusing Caspar of harboring terrorists." Chantinelle nods, "Absolutely right!" Chantinelle stands up and bows slithgly to Q'rii, "My greetings ambassador." Q'rii steps further into the room, his eyes fixed on Chantinelle. "That is the rumor, Ambassador. But these terrorists supposedly are against the CDU. A threat to us. Why are you so concered as to break the agreement on you visa to involve yourself in this matter?" You say, "And your Admiral said himself your Navy was informed about this!" Q'rii shrugs. Q'rii says, "This is the main reason why we wanted all non-Casparians off the planet." Chantinelle looses all the colors of her face and mmmms, "I was invited to visit the Funeral!" Q'rii says, "Ah. That's fine, then. I hope you understand, in this case, you'll have to leave the planet directly after the service, and return when we expected you." Di'anCecht nods, "Now is not the time to be shutting down our borders, Director." (OOC) Alstuner says, "NO I didn't I said that no Caspar military were involved in this incident." You say, "And don't try to change the theme! the Empire wants an officially explanation by the CDU according this incident!" (OOC) Chantinelle says, "Oops sorry, misread :)" Q'rii looks at Di'an. "This is the most fitting time, Ambassador. We can't regroup and collect ourselves until the planet is cleared. After the funeral, of course." Di'anCecht looks at Q'rii, and responds, "Caspar has not ever, nor will it ever support terorism in any form." (OOC) Di'anCecht says, "should've been responds to chanti :>" You say, "Bad apology! No! now its the time to discuss the incident, cuz we know that you host known traitors of the Empire and we think the terrorists will be found here even too!" Q'rii says, "I know. We're not in charge of any terrorism acts. You understand that, don't you? All the terrorists involved are not Casparians. I've researched and investigated the matter enough to know that." You say, "You know???" Q'rii turns to Chantinelle. "Traitors to the Empire? Ambassador, if I may fill you in, we are not involved with you by diplomatic ties of any means. If we are doing something that you do not agree with, what do you care?" Chantinelle gasps, "And why you didn'T informed the Empire? We are talking about on of the most famous heros of the Empire!" Q'rii says, "Heros of the Empire? I'm not sure what you're talking about." You say, "General Veers was the target of the terrorists!" You say, "I want a complete list of each person who was involved into this case!" Q'rii says, "I was not informed of any terrorist act against your General Veers. If you think the terrorists are Casparians, then I'm afraid you need to get a little more informed yourself." (OOC) Q'rii says, "And with that, I need to go for a few. Di'an, take over. BBS" Q'rii has disconnected. Di'anCecht says, "Apparently the terrorist attack was aimed at General Veers... and may I ask one question Ambassador, do you think if we were involved in this... we'd have been so blatant, with half your fleet itching for a reason to take over ... and also, I need to inform you that though we wil cooperate to the fullest and best of our abilites, we will in no way re-submit ourselves to the dominion of the empire..."" (OOC) Chantinelle says, "But Q'rii said he knows that the terrorists!!!" (OOC) Di'anCecht acks, half of that was suppoposed to have been said to q'rii *sigh*( Chantinelle laughs out coldy, "We and taking you over? Why should we, CDU is worthless!" (OOC) Di'anCecht says, "the oldways, they've bombed half of caspar and tried to assassinate the pres... that's probably what he's talking about." (OOC) Chantinelle ahas. Di'anCecht hmms, "Be that as it may, we do hold a strategic position. But that is not the issue. We will help you find these people as best we can, but we will not follow orders from you, understood?" You say, "Well you have 2 days to solve your investigations about the GDI case. I am leaving Caspar at Saturday!" You say, "Either I get the official apology by the Goverment or _WE_ will solve the case!" Alstuner says, "I trust you will be making all information you have on this matter so we can better assist you on this matter." Di'anCecht nods, "It is a prerequisite to our co-operation, I might add." You say, "I shall inform you about the incidents on _YOUR_ space station? Are you so bad or just lieing?" Di'anCecht says, "Very well ambassador, the investigation will begin as soon as your logs of the incident are supplied in full." Chantinelle collects her folders and puts them in her uniform. You say, "I am not peased about this discussion, but I hope, really hope, the next time we meet I get more answers by you!" Di'anCecht taps the datapad. "Certainly, ambassador." You say, "And you know the GM isn't so nice as I am!" Chantinelle stands up slowly. Alstuner just looked at me. (OOC) Chantinelle says, "01:00 AM I must sleep sorry1" Di'anCecht has disconnected. (OOC) Alstuner says, "1 am...what are you an Aussie or something?" (OOC) Chantinelle says, "German :)" (OOC) Alstuner says, "Ahhh, Guten Abend!" Di'anCecht has connected. (OOC) Di'anCecht wonders if he missed anything? Chantinelle smiles icely and says, "And greetings to your wife Amb. " (OOC) Alstuner says, "Nope." Di'anCecht nods, "I'll convey them."
