Checkmate HQ, Saturday Afternoon

[exspeedydotcom]

Checkmate wasn't exactly a Monday-Friday 9 to 5 type of operation, so Roy wasn't too surprised when he was called to his supervisor's office on Saturday afternoon. He was a little surprised to be asked how his Vietnamese was when he got there, especially since the languages he spoke were all listed in his file--and Vietnamese wasn't among them. Then his boss got around to admitting that his combination of Japanese, French, and some Mandarin had been deemed good enough for this mission, and he was handed his assignment packet: find the terrorist known as Cheshire, gain her trust, turn her in. And the attached photo, hello.

Piece of cake. Right?

He had a couple of days before he shipped out. He was going to have to spend them with Vietnamese for Beginners.
