I'm coming out.

Chapter 8

Arkady strode off leaving Callen standing there stunned.

"I…wait…!" Callen ran off after him, "You didn't know they were dead?"

Arkady turned sharply, "No…we do not kill people we are not terrorists."

"Tell me everything," Callen put his hand on his uncle's arm, "Tell me on the record, so no one can accuse you again."

Arkady looked at him for a moment and motioned to one of his bodyguards nearby. "Have Michelle Mason and Jacob Hanna come to my office." He said and nodded to his nephew, "I will, we can record the interview."

Callen walked with Arkady back to his office.

He opened the computer on his desk and turned it to face the two of them.

Callen pressed record on the computer. "This is an interview with special Agent G Callen and Arkady Kolcheck," he added the date and time but omitted the location and Arkady sent him a small nod of thanks.

"Are you Arkady Kolcheck? Leader of the NBSCA?" he asked.

Arkady nodded, "We need you to talk for the camera." Callen prodded gently.

"Da…yes…yes I am." He replied.

"And at this time do you waive your right for counsel, with the proviso that if so needed counsel will be provided for your later?"

"Da… Yes."

"Arkady Kolcheck, you have been charged with masterminding the bombing and murders of broodmares and children at the breeding centers, do you want to tell me what happened?" Callen looked relaxed and nodded in Arkady's direction.

"A few years ago we found a location of a site where the government was using women to birth babies for people against their will."

"It is on record that brood mares do not have feelings and emotions and that they do not have the mental capacity to do anything but birth children," Callen said.

Arkady bristled and then noticed the look that Callen was sending him. "That is not true, these women who are held in these centers are as smart and capable as you or I and their only crimes were to be natural born or straight."

"The government tells us different, they say that all the women in that attack were killed by a bomb planted by your group."

Arkady nodded, "I know what the government said, but they are wrong, we did not kill the women that left, apart from those who wanted to stay here in our community, the rest were sent home, like the detectives that infiltrated our organization, some have stayed and a few were returned home, unharmed."

"The undercover officers that you sent home were all found dead." Callen told him.

Arkady took a deep breath and steeled himself for his next move, "We have proof that all were unconscious but alive when we left them, I have discs showing all the men alive, we wanted proof that they had been dropped off safely, everyone who has come here, including yourself has been given the choice to stay with us and help build a new tomorrow, or to be sedated, as no one knows where we are, and dropped off unharmed in a motel in Los Angeles. They are left with food, water and a prepaid cell phone so they can call for help as soon as the sedative in their system wears off."

Callen turned to the camera, "Hetty, I'll send the discs along with this." He turned back to Arkady, "Arkady, you say that the government lied about your attack on the birthing Center, can you please clarify what you meant by that?"

Arkady nodded and waved a hand off screen where Michelle and Jacob were waiting, "A few of the mothers that escaped came with us, they did not all die as you were told." He stood up to allow Michelle to sit down.
