The Tale of a Thousand Lies Volume 3

Chapter 6

"that's a good proposal you got there mr president, but we still got a lot of requests to respond." Sheryl

"o-okay then. Suit yourself. Though I will definitely put you up for a good word for your project exodus."

"that's great! Thank you mr president. If you will now excuse us." Rod said as Sheryl was also happy with the news

After rod and Sheryl got out of the office, the Chinese president scratched his head again thinking of what he should do about all this. Then back in the origami at the bridge where they are holding a strategy meeting.

"girls, one down, one more problem to go."

"yeah.. what should we do with those rich girls?" Sheryl

"hmm.. why don't we ask them that?" Stacey

"well.. that's the perfect answer but I worry about eliyas case." Yukiko

"yes. shes a muslim after all. she will have many families and will literally try to find her with all their resources." Flores

"hahh.. maybe lets just ask them. It's the only way we got." Maria

"alright then, its settled. We ask them then from there, we proceed with part 2 of this meeting." Rod

"agreed." Sheryl said as they all nodded

After a few minutes, ling and eliya was summoned to the bridge where they were summoned.

"hello girls. Have you calmed down now?"

"y-yes.. we tried also to call our fathers but they just wont answer. Then we thought about everything that happened and finally see that it maybe is true that they are now dead." Ling said as eliya nodded

"like I said.. the moment they made a deal with them, it was already too late for them."

"I know! Its just that its very hard to accept all of this!" ling said clenching her fists

"we get your situation right now ling. So getting right to the chase, you two must choose now.." Stacey

"to work for me and us or to go back to your worlds?"

"and specially you eliya, we would all need your decision if you want to come with us. If you do, you must either set aside your family ties or if they will understand and agree to your situation, we might let you in this ship." Maria

"you specialize in robotics right?" Stacey

Eliya nodded

"then that's perfect. We do have a spot for you on this ship as one of the science team members." Stacey

"as for you ling, you must also decide whether to go back or go with us." Sheryl

"once you do, you must set aside your other family members and work with us or if they would accept and understand, then you might also have a place here." yukiko

"w-we understand. Let us think of it for now." Ling said as eliya nodded

"perfect. You can contemplate your thoughts on the cargo hold sitting with the rest of the whole crew ling and eliya."

"t-thank you for understanding.." ling

"no. we just save lives and provide an opportunity for those who might need." Yukiko

"yukiko, set course for kola peninsula."

"so were going back there to check out the Russian rescue teams request huh. For 5 lost children." Sheryl

"yes. though when we get there, it would probably be night time so lets hurry."

"got it." yukiko
