<Episode 3>
Black Order Prisoner: Nero
Enzo strolls out of the scolding hot shipping container. His fingers trickling softly on the pendant around his neck, his attention clearly elsewhere as he walks while thinking.
A Sergeant in his unit approaches, snacking on a chocolate bar.
Higgens: Lieutenant
He says to him while eating the chocolate bar.
Enzo: Higgens
Higgens: how'd it go? He say anything?
Enzo: no… nothing… yet
Higgens: man, how long's it been? Almost two years of torture and still nothing? Maybe he doesn't really know where he is
Enzo: maybe...or maybe he's extremely loyal
Higgens: hmm, maybe
Sergeant Anderson approaches from the right, returning from gathering word from the General himself. He gives a single tap to the tactical earpiece at the side of his ear.
Anderson: I just got off with the General. He's requesting a meeting
Enzo: I know
The helicopter loudly hovers around in the air as the pilot ready's to set it down. The rotors' rapid spinning blows out a gust of wind.
Anderson: he sent for a chopper to fetch you? Must be really urgent
Higgens turns to Enzo and asks…
Higgens: something up?
Enzo shakes his head slightly and responds, “not sure,” then walks over to the helicopter.
Enzo: in the mean time I want you guys to head out to the South
Anderson: you want us to complete the mission without you?
Enzo: you’re all Sergeants, aren’t you? I trust that you can handle one simple mission by yourselves without having me to hold your hands
The helicopter barely had a minute on the ground and is already in the sky traveling back to Sapphire City.

Sapphire City-Army Base; The General's sector
Sid blends in with the rest of the soldiers, camouflaging himself and roaming past undetected. He makes a quick turn and notices General Cross standing outside with Lieutenant Asami at his side.
Sid: this is my chance
Noting his chance while the General converses with his close Lieutenant, Sid makes his way to General Cross' office as he sneaks past them unseen.

Asami: how goes it, sir?
G. Cross: we’re still in negotiations
Asami: and are you sure that this is the way to go?
G. Cross: are you questioning my judgement?
