Firefly, part 2

Agent Dossier stood at attention. His handler had just approached him with a new assignment, and the experienced field agent could tell it was going to be an important one.

"Here's you briefing document, Agent." said his handler. Dossier did not know the handlers name and the handler didn't know the agent's. "You know the drill... read it, memorize and destroy it."

Agent Dossier nodded ascension and took the paper, stamped on the top with two logos. One was the Blue Sun Corporation, the source of funding for pretty much every Alliance agency in the 'Verse, but they also had their hand in many other operations as well, both official and petty.

The other logo was the brand of his intelligence agency. It was one of the most top secret agencies in the Alliance network, and it was definitely the most de-centralized. He had no idea where his orders came from, but he carried them out knowing that he was helping his cause.

Agent Dossier had a photographic memory to he took a look at the paper and his lighter, reading the paper twice before setting it ablaze.

His handler went on, "Our informant ring tell us that the target just made an emergency landing on Victoria, and that they'll be stuck there for some time. Take this requisition order to the Tech Department and whatever you think you'll need. Then, leave at once to Victoria. Your goal is to destroy the target. Any questions?"

Dossier had none.
