Beta wasmadder than hell already. First, his boss betrays them all. Addinginsult to injured pride, he gets away without a scrape, all the whilebaiting them to do his dirty work. His satellite phone rings. Betarecognizes its clearance code. He wasn't in the mood, but couldn'tturn anyway any possible leads at this point. He snaps up the call,"Drakken, what the hell do you want?"

"I'vebeen robbed, cleaned slam out. Stillwater's behind this, I tell you.He and Gemini did this all together. They're..."

"Sowhat?" He could care one bit about his problems. He had enough ofhis own. "Why should I care? Give me one good reason".

"I'vecontacted numerous associates. Gemini and Stillwater have hit them inexcess of $5 Trillion. I suggest you start inventorying youraccounts. Maybe they haven't wiped you out, as well, yet".

"Theywouldn't dare".

"Fine,it's your head, not mine," Sheva hangs up, done impersonatingDrakken.

Betacould ignore the possibility. His boss was an SX-7 spy. Who know whatelse he might've done in their name? He races into his ex-boss'office, now his, accessing his computer. He pulls up one bank accountafter another. All showed a zero cash balance. Several accounts hadalready been closed out, as early as a week ago. Which meant, healready knew his cover was in jeopardy. Beta picks up tossing themonitor across the room screaming in pure ire.

Shevadetected the computer disconnected. The A.I. sends a coded text overDrakken's phone to Beta's, which read, "I just learnt, Necros'latest base location. They're nestled on Eiger Mountain north slopeat these exact coordinates".

"GeneralRusso, assemble our men. I've just Necros learnt, Necros robbed usblind. And I know their latest base's location. We hit them withinsix hours. We must hurry. My sources say, they're preparing to rabbitfor a while. Who know when, and if, we'll get this chance again".

"Understood,Sir?" General Russo salutes their new leader.

Betaresolves he may go under. He'd do so taking that spineless traitorwith him.
