Airport of Sydney,
Australia.

Sam pulled up her black eye mask, glancing out the window as she viewed the western concourse terminal of the city's large international airport in the distance. Although, she had to cover her eyes almost immediately as rays of the afternoon sun shone brightly in her direction.

Alex and Clover were also still in their seats, the former snoring and drooling a bit as she slept. Clover had plugged her ears and was reading a fashion magazine on hats.

A female WOOHP agent came up to them, lightly tapping Alex on the shoulder which stirred her awake. She let out a loud yawn as she stretched her arms.

The agent gestured for Sam, Alex and Clover to follow her as she walked towards the exit. The girls got up and followed. They were led by the woman out of the airport, towards a small black car with shaded glasses.

A shrewd looking blonde woman with short blonde hair stepped out from the driver's seat, wearing brown spectacles with a thin frame. She was dressed in a formal office attire, composed of a white blouse, red jacket and skirt.

"These are the girls I told you about, Miss," said the WOOHP agent.

The woman looked Sam, Alex and Clover over with a sharp gaze. Just her stare made them uncomfortable and they immediately stood upright. "Hmm...They seem decent enough."

"D-decent?" Clover nearly choked, with her left eye twitching slightly.

"Clover, let it be." Sam whispered.

The WOOHP agent soon left, and the woman still continued to inspect the girls for a bit before gesturing for them to get in the car.

She also got in and started the vehicle, then glanced at Sam, Alex and Clover through the mirror. "You're probably wondering who I am."

"Um..yes, Miss," Alex answered nervously. "But I'm guessing based on our mission report, you're someone close to the Prime Minister."

"Indeed. I am May Richie, a personal advisor to The Prime Minister of Australia," said the woman. "I was also the one who requested for assistance from WOOHP."

"Um, excuse me, Miss May," said Sam. "but does the prime minister have any idea of what's going on? About the fact that someone could be trying to kill him?"

"Well, yes and no," May answered, driving away from the airport.

"WHAAATTT?!!" Sam, Alex and Clover exclaimed in disbelief.

"Listen, the prime minister is currently in the act of presenting a project he has been planning since he got elected. One that could reduce the rate of hunger and poverty in the country, and possibly the entire world by some degree," said May. "He is aware that he needs more security now, but he doesn't know that the reason is because he's being targeted."

"But if he is doing such a good thing, why is someone after him?" Clover questioned.

"Not everyone sees things like that. I'm sure you girls would know what I mean." May answered.

Sam, Alex and Clover looked at one another and steeled their resolve. May was right, they did understand. There were just some people out to cause trouble due to their own greed.

In some minutes, May made it into the Royal Botanical Gardens and parked before a large castle like building, fashioned in Gothic revival architecture.

"Welcome to the Government House of Sydney, residential home and office of the Governor of South Wales."

Sam, Alex and Clover exclaimed in awe.

"Is the Governor somehow related to royalty?" Alex asked.

"Quite the contrary," May answered. "But she does stay here as the vice-regal representative of the Queen of Australia."
