They walked in silence for a couple minutes, the only sounds in the whole place were their shoes clicking on the floor. The soldier moved around Sarah and begin to walk in front of her. She didn't understand this until he turned to his left and removed a set of keys from belt. He inserted the key into the doors lock, then proceeded to enter a 5 digit code into a keypad above the door handle. There was a faint beep from somewhere inside the keypad. He opened the door and stepped to the side, motioning with his hand for the two to enter the room.
Sarah took a quick look around the room. The room contained 6 chairs that were positioned in front of a big, white screen on the back wall. There was a desk at the other end of the room with a slide show projector and some other computer devices stationed on top of it.
"This is what we called the EBR," Turner told her.
"The Emergency Briefing Room," spoke the cute soldier from behind them.
Turner gave the soldier a stern look then returned his attention back to Sarah. "I need you to sign a couple documents. Basic stuff really," he assured her.
Sarah followed Turner over to the desk, then waited for him to move around behind it. He opened the top draw to retrieve the papers he needed Sarah to sign. She looked over the desk and noticed that the drawer was home to several porno magazines.
"I see you've been doing some reading, Boss," Sarah giggled.
"Ugh..." Turner bumbled grabbing the papers and quickly shutting the drawer.
"Do I need to read these?" Sarah asked taking the pages from Turner.
He shook his head in disagreement, and offered her his pen. She quickly filled to the back section and signed on the line before giving them back to Turner. He returned to the top drawer and retrieved a big, brown envelope. He inserted the files into it, then licked it and handed it to the soldier who tucked it firmly under his arm.
"Ok, listen Sarah," Turner said hesitantly. "I know I brought you into this blind sighted, but please understand my position."
"Go on," Sarah encouraged.
"I think it's time I tell you who has the Black Tuesday virus," Turner hesitated then went on, "at this current time it is in the possession of former CIA Special Agent, Jack Anderson."
Sarah gasped. She was in shock at the thought of Jack doing such a terrible thing. "That can't be right?" She pleaded.
"I am afraid so. I would have told you earlier but, I couldn't let anything stop you for coming to Langley," Turner said.
"Asshole!" she said angrily, turning away from Turner. Sarah had wondered why she hadn't seen Jack yet and now she knew. "So Jack has changed teams huh?" she said to herself.
"I am sorry that you have been put in this spot," Turner apologized. "I can assure you that you won't be out there alone. We will be monitoring you always, and at any given time we'll only be seconds away."
"I... I just need some time to think. May you show me back to my room?" She asked the handsome guard who had escorted them to that point.
He looked at Turner for confirmation and the CIA boss nodded his head in agreement.
