"W-why, sir Chief?" Yukina asked the man with the badge.<br/><br/>"Please, don't do that." he requested. "We can't have anyone outside the state of Washington putting any of their noses into this matter. If the media knows this, people from all over the other states will go here and make a spectacle out of this. Then all of the wing nuts from all over this country will join them. And those wing nuts will get the attention they want. Either that, or the Federal Government will turn this city into a battleground. Then everyone here would be in danger. Do you want that?"<br/><br/>"But sir, I am pretty sure that many people from this city have already noticed those bad men with guns in the docks." Yukina insisted. "It might be that the news channels have already known this right now. With all due respect, but I think it is too late to stop the spread of this news to the other places already."<br/><br/>The Chief then stopped to think for a while, before saying "Do you know what, Miss Aikawa? You're right. Maybe the other states or even the whole darn country knows this already. But even then, it still didn't catch the attention of the Federal Government yet or have attracted freaking tourists to see those wing nuts. And that's what I'm trying to do, Miss Aikawa. We must contain them in this city and stop any criminal actions that they'll try to do. Maybe they'll give up the fight because we're shooting any of them that would try to do stuff outside their territory. So go on, tell the media. I doubt doing that would do anything good."<br/><br/>"But this is not right, sir!" she reacted. "All you are doing right now is to sit out away from them and hope that, by picking them off one by one when they come out of their base, they would give up the fight. This is like a siege. No, this is indeed a siege! I remember what Sun Tzu wrote on the Art of War about sieges. He said that sieges are not good, and it only makes the side laying the siege impatient. And when impatience takes over an army, they would carelessly attack the place they are besieging. And such would only cause the loss of many lives without ever taking the besieged place. And if we fail to defeat them, it would only be bad for the city and the people living here!"<br/><br/>"Then we'll be waiting and be patient." He assured. "We have the resources to sit this out and let them coop up in there until they surrender. Of course, they are the ones surrounded, not us. We can afford to sit out for a long time, if that is what you call it."<br/><br/>"Sir, I am sorry, but sitting out for a long time would only make this fight longer!" Yukina was warning him. "And doing such would only mean that whatever resources being used would only be exhausted and you still will not defeat those bad men with guns! Victory was never gotten by making the fight longer, sir!"<br/><br/>"That's not the case here, because we have more resources than them." He explained. "I'm sorry and I hate to say this, but you can't tell me what to do because you don't understand the overall scope of the situation. And not to mention that you're a tourist trying to tell me how to solve a problem that concerns this city. And therefore, I can't listen to you, so please calm down and enjoy your stay instead."<br/><br/>"But sir..." Yukina was saddened by the dismissal of the Chief to her advices. She was worried that the people in this city could have their lives in danger all because of how the he was handling the situation, but she also knew that she was not in power to make decisions to him. And thus, she can help it but to be worried.
