The lame buzzing of the electrical light alerts an annoying sound which everyone in the room ignores
"Officer Hack, we are sorry that we had to cut your break after that operation in the UK.."
A female intelligence analyst sitting in the opposite chair spoke as Officer Hack listened with a blank expression, a small keycard around her neck, it reads Reacher.
After a few seconds of waiting for a unneeded reaction, another man beside the woman spoke
"You are needed, for another assignment." The CIA Intelligence Analyst's placed a folder/file towards the SAC Officer
Officer Hack straightened himself to a more comfortable sitting position before reaching his hands to take the file
"Where? I'm not up for another flight to the Middle East, after a lengthy trip last week." Hack responds, glancing at the two to get a set of stares
He slept the entire previous day, but Hack was still exhausted, he glanced at the file
He removes his eyes from the two and looked down at the file to see a picture of the Gate
Oh yeah.. I heard about that thing a few days ago
"The Gate, Hack, one of our ambassadors requested for you specifically, Evan Ka-"
"Evan Karl, I know him, met him in a protection trip during the Second Insurgency." Hack interjected as the man nodded, annoyed at Hack interrupting him
The woman waited as the Officer read the rest of the file before continuing
"Your skills are needed, mostly for your military background.." The woman moved and shifted closer to Officer Hack
"..People want an answer to the New York attacks days ago, and from the locals, Or what is left of them we can speak to, they are not budging and willing to cooperate.."
"..We need you on the other side to help the Joint Army, Marine and Air Expeditionary force, you will be also coordinating operations with the stationed Colonel, and given that you used to serve and transfered from the 75th RR to the Green Berets and further onto SAD.."
"..We find it suitable to agree with Ambassador Karl's request." The woman explained further, a moment of silence dawns the room for a minute as Hack thought about the assignment
He didn't have any options, all he did was follow orders, despite whether he enjoyed or hated his job
"When do i start?"

Officer Hack looked at the forest around him, the sounds of construction fills his ears as the massive excavators dig out the ground as architects plan our the area
"Agent Hack?" Hack looked to his right to see a US Marine Captain standing in front of him
"Operations Officer, Captain." Hack looked at the rank patch on the Captains shoulder
The Captain nodded
"Captain Perez, sorry for the Agent stuff, you know Hollywood has fucked every single mind of the ranks of the CIA." Captain Perez shook hands with the Officer before the two walked towards the Humvee
Officer Hack looked at the accompanying US Army personnel on the squad
"Arent there supposed to be more Marines?" Hack asks the soldiers who shrugged
"We got hit pretty badly, many of their men got fucked on the New York Attacks, we are just the few ones who even agreed to sign the NDA."
All of them seemed to be grouping up at the Humvee
