Got marching orders from WO command--address to meet team and recieve brefing. The word is...well, not quite espionage, but something very close. WO is underfunded, weak military. Influence must be pulled off behind the scenes. Further, some dialogues can't be held openly. Thus, our first mission. WO wants to establish contact w/Worker's Army. Not easy people to find. Also, not popular w/government, Prometheus. So we covertly deliver secure phone number to WA leader.
Made contact w/WA selling explosives. Were ambushed at drop pt. by Prometheus Agents, fight ensued. No casualties on our side; eliminated 4 PAs, took the fifth prisoner. Are currently staying in WA hideout in subway system.
Impressions of team:
Clement: Good man in fight; took out lights when PAs showed up. Took down at least one, maybe two. Throws knives, quick and quiet. Communist. WA probably trusts him the most of all of us.
Edison: A bit stubborn and argumentative, but he's highly competent. Had the foresight to make backups of important documents--i.e., phone number. Also good fighter.
Emmanuel: Still not sure why he's here, but lucky he is. Doc always useful; also, silver tongue. More like platinum. Man to have with me at bargaining table.
Owen: Incredibly skilled. No judgement whatsoever. Hacked the WA's system while everyone else was sleeping. Saved only because Emmanuel convinced WA agents that Owen is idiot savant. Big Guy likes us, apparently. Took Owen aside, tried to exsplain concept of restraint, garnering goodwill. He pretended not to understand. Hopefully, at least garnered some useful info from dodged bullet. Will speak more w/Owen when more discreet opportunity presents self.
