"Well, it can't hurt to have it", said Praline briskly, "Follow me, the tunnel to the compound is right through this closet".

The tunnel was not as cramped as Nadine had imagined; it was air conditioned, had electric lights lighting the way, and pretty colorful mosaics decorating the walls.

There was one particular mosaic that caught her eye; it depicted a 4 toed Egyptian figure holding an ankh, with smaller figures dancing around its' base.

Nadine touched the mosaic, and the dancing figures, only to realize it was actually an amazingly clear high definition display screen.

Nadine's hand went to cover her open mouth, and someone somewhere heard a voice that very softly whispered, "Polar bears moved the island."

The man walked up to Dante, and shook his hand warmly, "I wasn't sure I'd ever see you again, this is a wonderful surprise."

"I wouldn't listen to anything those bears tell you if I were you, now why don't you have a seat over there while I put on some tea." Uncle Jim-Bob said as he pointed at a giant white sofa.

At the mention of tea Dante narrowed his eyes; "You were not part of that failed Serbian mission, were you, Uncle Jim Bob?"

Dante sighed, "I find that hard to believe, you went to such lengths to cover it up, then that Wilgy fellow came in & conquered Serbia on his own", looking around he asked, "What the hell is all of this anyway?"
