Chapter 3: CHAPTER 3
Present Day.....
Sammy had just taken a train back to London. The Media had somehow got the wind of it and so, they had come all the way down there to report on it. Nobody had any CORRECT answers to their questions except Sammy and he was definitely not speaking. He was not risking an ongoing operation. Amid all media person speculating and people trying to control the crowd, Sammy had slipped them to travel back to London. One thing was certain; Inducting Robbie was both a boon and a curse.....
4 year back, Coffee Shop.....
Robbie was waiting anxiously, holding a hot cup of coffee, for both the mystery voice on the phone and Sammy to come. After waiting for almost 20 mins, he saw Sammy come but not alone. He was accompanied by Lowen and a stranger. Robbie was feeling Sammy and Lowen came to his table and sat down, while the stranger went ahead to the coffee counter.
Sammy: "Hey Man. Did you wait too long?"
Robbie: "Yes for almost 20 mins. You were supposed to come alone. Lowen, I am....."
Lowen: "It's Ok. I understand. I have faced something similar earlier too and so has Sammy. Don't worry, everything will be explained."
Robbie: "Lowen, I don't understand. Sammy, you know I am waiting for someone."
Sammy: "We know. He is bringing your coffee and will explain everything."
Robbie was going through a multitude of emotions. Distrust and Suspicion was feeling his mind.
Just Then, The Stranger/Mystery man (MM) came to their table with 5 cups of coffee. He put all of them on the table and extended his hand. Robbie did a handshake out of habit but regretted it almost immediately.
Stranger/Mystery Man: "Robert Wein aka Robbie, right?"
Robbie: "Yes. Who are you? What's going on? Why are Sammy and Lowen with you? Why...."
MM: "Stop Robbie. All of your questions will be answered but first answer me this; If you have to choose between Humanity and Nature, what will you choose?"
Robbie: "It's a difficult question. But if you ask me, Humanity, I guess. I don't know. Why are you asking this? Sammy, what's going on?"
MM: Hmmm…Interesting. For now, Please go through the pamphlet hidden in the napkin under your coffee.
Robbie opened the napkin and found a folded paper in it. He opened it and started reading -
If you are reading this, this means you have come in contact with an ISSR agent or have unknowingly become a part of ongoing ISSR mission. If you want to avoid a life of danger and adventure, it is advisable that you don't question any further and it will be made sure that you will forget that something like this ever happened. More details can be asked from the agent who gave you this, although the onus of answering them lies with the judgement of the agent.
If you are vaguely interested and want to actively or inactively be a part of a clandestine organization, which comes with its own perks, risks and dangers, then sign this. And rest can be answered by the agent.
Robbie was awestruck. Thousands of questions were swirling in his mind.
Robbie: "What the hell is this?"
Sammie: "So, is it Yes or No?"
Robbie: "I need an explanation. First answer my questions and then ...."
Robbie suddenly went into a trance and so did the MM.
