There was an operator seated in the control tower. He had been about to leave when the other's radio message came through. The fact that it seemed that Hunter was coming in, though, was probably going to keep him around for a while.<br/><br/>Exhaling, he decided to come back around. Having retaken his seat, the tower operator figured that there was no one here to relieve him. That was strange to tell the truth. There were supposed to be enough air traffic control personnel.<br/><br/>He wasn't sure if something had called them off. Anyway, though, he turned to pick up his microphone. "We read you loud and clear. What is your status?"<br/><br/>Though some of the others hadn't recognized him that seemed to suggest that this individual knew something about him, but it should be noted that the Area 88 tower was probably just observing his plane. Someone here must have had some information on him, though it was doubtful that anyone would have. Hunter was a real enigma, and that made things interesting.<br/><br/>Certainly it had made things interesting for Saki. He had no idea who Hunter was. Likewise, the female who had been chasing him before hadn't recognized him. For that matter, it was doubtful that Hunter recognized her any more than she did him.<br/><br/>A plane could act very much like a mask. It kept you insulated from the identity of others.
