24 hours later, Scott deployed his soldiers all over Appian to check if there aren't any Xapiens left. The soldiers raided the Xapiens living quarters. Their maroon outfits were found dumped on the ground. Scattered outside the buildings like dirty laundry waiting to be thrown into the washing machine.

Scott was at his new office, signing off documents and handing each and one of them to Jody. The phone rang and he grabbed it.

'What is it?' he asked as he clicked on the voice speaker button. Then put the phone down.

'Mr President, we have searched everywhere and left no stone unturned.'

'Did you find them?'

'No, it seems they heard you loud and clear.'

'Good job, soldier.'

'The only thing they left behind were their maroon sweaters and pants.'

'Ha, ha, ha, ha.'

'We'll await for any further instructions from you.'

He shook his head. 'Call off the search, soldier and close that damn portal.'

'Yes sir.'

He hanged up then looked at his bodyguard. 'That was easy, I thought they'd resist.'

A knock came from the door. Roger walked in.

'Who said you must come in?' he asked.

He shrugged. 'I'm sorry about that.'

'Go back outside, knock and wait for my call.'

He rolled his eyes as he exited and closed the door. A knock sounded from the door.

'COME IN.'

'Roger, for the past 3 years, Yolanda never allocated a budget for the military department except of course the salaries.'

'That is correct,' he said.

How much are you going to allocate to my department for this financial year?'

'It depends on what you need. Do you have a list of artillery and other military equipment you need?' he asked.

He shook his head.

'Nope, but I need a lot of ammo -- rifles, choppers, bombers, tanks, military jets, surveillance and advanced Intel equipment.' Roger scribbled on his notepad as he nodded to everything he said.

'Got it. I will liaise with one of the generals and soldiers and confirm specifications
