"Ok, I'll try to make it for today," Mark agrees. When Kelly goes into McCallister's office hed turns and heads for his new room. If this card is classified I bet he doesn't want me reading it where Tommy can find it. Hope this stuff doesn't take too long to read. I really need a swim.
Mark clenched his hands to keep from trembling, which almost worked.
Mark arrives at his new room. It is much larger then his old dorm room. It is a lavish apartment with two floors, well a flat, and the bottom floor. Plus he has his own bathroom with a separate bath and shower. There is a separate for a Jacuzzi, and a large living room with a fireplace and the upstairs is large with a two walk in closets, and he even has a kitchen downstairs.
The computer system is tied to SARAH but their a separate system, that is not connected to their network, marked specifically for UNJE usage. It is a secure system, and boots up quickly, and Mark finds it guides him through setting up his account, and then he finally places the data card into the system to start reading.

SITREP JULY 2014
-Pantheon agents have been sequestered in Paradise, current interrogation underway, on the whereabouts of Pantheon Leader, Cardinal and the elite only known as Metatron, her messenger/go-between
-Bishop has been placed in solitary confinement for further review, and study, possible test subject for No Return, still awaiting authorization from UN HQ, before administering
-Mexico City disaster, officially attributed to Pantheon agents, Bishop is being held responsible for masterminding and executing the terrorist act, evidence to be produced as needed [Closed]
-UN to repeal original stance on the creation and deployment of Artificial Intelligences in light of new evidence that such technology can be controlled, and the beneficial aspects for baselines and elites across the board
-Congo Protectorate considered a non-threat at this time, the regime is collapsing under its own weight, possible strike by UNJE forces to break its grip is planned, Legacy may be deployed en masse to handle this minor threat
-Registration process is moving along as scheduled, results are as expected, though with many elites fleeing to the United States, the numbers are skewed, one can only assess that infection in the United States will increase, a more thorough solution may have to be proposed
-Worldwide estimates of elites sits at about 15,000 elites, as compared to 100 in the year 2004, this number is a low estimate, estimated infected is approximately 100,000 worldwide, though infection is considered benign, the trait is carried in the parents, and passed via birth, it is unknown what the effect of two elites parents would be, further analysis is needed
-As a precaution it is advised that sterilization techniques be imposed on elites without knowledge, to keep the population down, explosion of population without proper control is expected in five years, Stage 1 is already in progress elites at UN sponsored training facilities have undergone sterilization procedures and have begun to monitor the patients, so far no ill affects have been observed
-Stage 2 will consist of testing the general populace for a variant strain of “cancer”, infected carriers will be sterilized, as needed. Stage 3 consists of eliminating those elites considered dangerous to baselines and elites at large; note Stage 3 is already in progress, as needed
-Accidental exposure to No Return, patient lost elite powers over a period of six hours, then cellular deterioration began, within 12 hours the patient was considered terminal, No Return has been furthered refined, but without live testing all results are clearly theoretical; usage of No Return on benign subjects has a tendency to trigger latent elite powers, coupled with often severe psychotic episodes, aggression, and worse; it is not advised to administer to benign subjects
-Current UNJE priority is to track down the elite known as Metatron, Cardinal is perhaps a fabrication of this elite, and perhaps he or she is the true mastermind behind the formation of Pantheon and its actions
-Further analysis of Cassandra Prophet and Ryan Praloski is needed, Mudaba Adin Institute is already underway with this, and we expect full compliance by Legacy to help in this matter
-Further planning for Operation Phoenix aka worst-case scenario, we need a battle plan if the Legacy Virus becomes common knowledge, we must have programs in place to contain and disseminate information as needed

Kelly
Mr. McCallister adjusts his glasses sitting in the chair next to Kelly, “You’re the one that came to me Kelly, I am here for you. Congratulations on your selection. To be honest you were not my first choice, but the committee is democratic, and you were chosen. Now with that in mind, it has come to my attention that you think I don’t like you. I assure you, there is nothing personal in any of my statements, but I take the welfare of the members of Legacy and the students of this Institute very personally. Now we both know you have something going on in your head, and we need to find out as much as we can about Neuro’s programming, for the time being you will not be assisting the team until further analysis of your mind can be assessed.”
He paused, “This is nothing personal but we have to make sure that what is going on in your mind is not going to have a negative effect on the team as a whole, and that means we need to know what we are dealing with. Ignorance in this situation will not suffice, I hope you understand what I am saying.”

“Sure, Kelly is nice, I just I don’t know, lets not talk about them. Lets talk about cool people, like us, and Kal, and that girl Anika is pretty nice. Even Isabelle is pretty cool, although,” she leans forward, “remember when I told you about the student I thought was pregnant, you would not have believed it was Isabelle but I heard it from a friend that she heard that Isabelle might leave the school and go back to Brazil to have her baby, or maybe the States,” Claire replies with a tone of excitement, “I think Billy and her are going to runaway together or something, wouldn’t that be romantic?”
