Moments Earlier...

Anastasia sat alone at the bar across the atrium after storming away from Manami Coltrane. She watched with mixed emotion as Eric and Manami continued their conversation. She hoped that Eric would have more luck than her in accomplishing their mission objectives -- but not too much luck. She diverted her attention for a moment to a table at the far end of the room where Dr. Yau was continuing to enjoy his evening. There was growing concern regarding the Chinese Shiawase employee Yau had been spending most of the evening with.

<Anastasia> I hope someone is keeping an eye on Yau...

<chase> i have been. they seem to be old acquaintances of his

<chase> it seems innocent now but i will continue to monitor

She turned her attention back to Eric and saw that Coltrane had gotten up from her seat and was heading upstairs. Looks like Eric didn't have any luck either. She smirked and turned to the bartender. "I'll have a martini please." He nodded, picked up a glass, and began preparing the drink. She turned back and watched Eric for a moment longer, expecting him to come over to the bar soon. Eric made his way to the stairs, and Ana began to feel sick when she realized what was happening.

<Dmitri> Target A has moved to 2F Guest Room 3

<Dmitri> Target B has moved to 2F Guest Room 5

<doc> Engaging A

<Eric_Black> Engaging B

Why do I feel like this? Ana attempted to reason with herself. Eric's just doing his job. He's not even my real date. Perhaps she was just jealous of the brilliant and stunning Manami Coltrane. Perhaps not. Her life was obviously going fairly well; her wealth and status was one of the highest in the room and she got plenty of attention with her appearance alone. It was certainly satisfying to beat her in the dancing competition, but Manami's counter-punch was brutal to Ana, even if she and Eric were a fake couple.

"Actually, make that a double shot of vodka instead," she said to the barkeeper before realizing her martini was sitting there ready. But before the barkeeper could take it away, she grabbed it. "Actually I'll have both." He shrugged and prepared her second drink.

<CharlesEllison> Ana could you come to the 2nd floor conference room for a moment, it's urgent

She downed both drinks quickly and stood up. Probably just another stupid associate he wants to show me off to. He had been introducing her to many people throughout the evening, and his misrepresentation of their relationship was really starting to eat at her nerves. As much as she was trying to re-build the relationship with her father, she was liking him less and less. The relationship's initial animosity was tough to break through: Charles left her and her mother to fend for themselves, her mother always accused Charles of lying and cheating, and it seemed he sold part of his soul to attain the status of President. Though Charles only seemed to care about Ana when it suited his interests, her desire to reconnect with her father stemmed from equally selfish roots. Had he never become President, Ana would never have taken up the task. Ana would never admit it, but the two were not all that different in this respect.

She made her way to the second floor while the other agents were engaging their targets.

The Situation

In a small meeting room in his mountain chalet, CFS President Charles Ellison is staring down the barrel of Senator Yasuji Shimada's PSK-3 collapsible heavy pistol. Across from him is his daughter Anastasia Ellison, holding a Walther Palm Pistol and aiming it at the Senator. Two other F.A.T.E. agents, Doc and Eric, just entered the room at Ana's request amidst the tense standoff.
