You exit your office and Talitha is waiting -- black coffee and blueberry muffin in hand.\n\n"Here you go. Just as you like it." She says.\n\n"Thanks." You tell her as you pinch one of her ears and rub it between your fingers. \n\n"You better go see Ox. You know how he doesn't like to be kept waiting."\n\n"Yeah. I'd better." You say.\n\n[[Go to Oxberg's Office|1.5]]
You pass rows of offices belonging to other agents. At the end of the room you come to an office door with a glazed window reading: OXBERG.\n\nYou open the door just a bit.\n\n"Hey, OX! You in there?" You yell.\n\n"Damn it! Don't call me that!" A hoarse voice replies.\n\nYou enter the room, where a large Cape Buffalo sits at a desk like a clown sits in a little car.\n\n"Jeez, this room get smaller? It's like a funhouse in here."\n\n"Sit," Ox says, "You're going to Ukraine. Russia is stepping their game up. They're launching a more forceful campaign intended to prove to Ukraine that they need Russia. In two days, the Prime Minister is going to meet with Ukrainian politicians, how little and few they are, and Russia plans to assassinate him then and there."\n\n"No problem." You say.\n\n"Yeah, it's imperative that Russia fails in this particular conquest. If Russia invades Ukraine it risks igniting a second cold war."\n\n"I said it was no problem."\n\n"Good. Go speak with Ralph. He'll set you up with everything you need. Then, Dyson will meet you in the airport in Kiev."\n\n[[Head to GEIST R&D|1.6]]
The elevator stops on an unlisted floor. You step outside and Ralph is waiting for you -- all four feet of him.\n\n"You're looking dapper as always. When did the walls get taller?"\n\n"Bite me." The little otter says.\n\n"I would, but I want more than an appetizer."\n\n"Oh Ha Ha." Ralph says sarcastically.\n\n"Where we headed?" You ask.\n\n"Testing Area 8."\n\nYou and Ralph step onto a cart that follows a track that divides the floor in half. You pass different experiments. Some explode, others short circuit.\n\n"So do any of these actually work?" You ask.\n\n"Yes. Many of which are already on their way to the field."\n\nThe cart stops. On the wall in large print is painted: TESTING AREA 08.\n\n[[Step off the cart|1.7]]\n
There's two tables. One has a suitcase, the other a row of green vials.\n\n"I'm afraid to ask." Wolf says as he points at the vials.\n\n"That's a paralytic tranquilizer made from Amazonian fish. It'll drop somebody long enough for you to do what you need to do -- non lethal, of course."\n\n"Nice," Wolf replies, "And the suitcase?"\n\n"That is a .50 caliber that convieniently folds into that suitcase. I'm pushing a mandate that would make all agents carry them. I don't think Ox will go for it."\n\n"You'd have to make the numbers add up for that to happen."\n\n"Yeah. Pack your things. The plane leaves in 10 minutes."\n\n[[Board the plane|2.1]]
Wolf is returning to GEIST (Guild of Espionage, Intelligence Service, and Tracking) Headquarters from the field. His secretary, Talitha, a ewe, greets him. She wears a purple dress. Her hooves are painted to match.\n\n"Hello, Wolf." She says.\n\n"Hello, lovely," Wolf says, "What's new?"\n\n"The usual. I'll have your coffee ready in a minute. You have a message. It's on your screen."\n\n"Thanks, dear."\n\n[[Enter your office.|1.2]]
Wolf opens the door of his office and he's met with the scent of sandalwood. Talitha has been in here cleaning, again. The office is a modern take on traditional Japan. The secretary has kept everything in shape -- and even trimmed the bonsai.\n\nWolf sits at his desk, mahogany, and turns his screen on.\n\n[[Check messages|1.3]]
The message inbox updates.\n\nS_AGENT_00Wolf has 4 unread messages and 3 read.\n\nUnread\n\n[[Hey Baby|Hey Baby]]\n\n[[COME SEE ME|OXBERG'S MESSAGE]]\n\n[[Clean Your Messages|Clean Your Messages]]\n\nRead\n\n[[You OWE Me|You OWE Me]]\n\n[[Miss You Already|Miss You Already]]\n\n\n\n[[Leave your office|1.4]]
Wolf opens the door slowly. An enemy operative stands watch with his back to Wolf.\n\n[[Choke him out|3.11]]
You sneak up behind him; he tries to get an elbow to land in your side as you choke him. He struggles. You drag his unconscious body into the stairwell. Now the building is clear. \n\n[[Walk back out on the rooftop|4.1]]
Basile falls and rolls back then stands again.\n\n[[Duck|4.2c]]
You sneak up behind him. Surprised, he is still unaware of you presence. You bash his head into the wall hard twice he collapses to the floor. You check to make sue the sound didn’t bring any company. No one comes.\n\n[[Head up the next flight of stairs|3.6]]
“Most of the men here are not as … enticing. So what does bring such an enticing gentleman here?”\n\n[["Business."|6.7]]
He's a chimpanzee. He greets Wolf. Nothing suspicious.\n\n[[Hand the concierge the claim for a room|5.3]]
You head up the stairs again. The condition is still terrible, but the walls seem more intact as you go up\nWolf enters the fifth floor. Walls are lined with furniture from previous inhabitants. A cigarette smolders in an ashtray. Wolf hears a toilet flush.\n\n[[Move to the bathroom door|3.7]]
Spymaster: Trouble in Kiev follows Carter Stone, Codename Wolf, in an effort to stop the assassination of the Ukrainian Prime Minister while thwarting KGB agents. \n\n[[Begin|1.1]]
The stairs only get worse as you ascend into the dilapidated building. There is nothing on the next floor, you can see clearly from the stairs with no walls to obstruct your view. Windows are busted out. Old newspapers twirl about as the wind blows through the jagged windows.\n\n[[Head up the next flight of stairs|3.5]]
As Wolf closes in on the fourth floor, he hears someone talking. He’s alone. The guard is talking into a headset while peeing in a corner.\n\n[[Tap his shoulder|3.5a]]\n\n[[Inject him with paralytic tranquilizer|3.5b]]\n\n[[Slam his head into the wall twice|3.5c]]
Wolf enters the building. The building has seen better days. Disrepair. The lobby is empty. Holes in the wall show where the building was gutted for wire.\n\n[[Go up the stairs|3.3]]
You head up the rough staircase keeping to the side to limit the sounds it could make. At the top of the first flight you can see an enemy operative yak on his phone while standing near a balcony.\n\nWhat do you do?\n\n[[Toss him over the balcony|3.3a]]\n\n[[Shoot him with your handgun|3.3b]]\n\n[[Inject him with paralytic tranquilizer|3.3c]]\n\n[[Choke him out|3.3d]]\n\n
In true fashion, you enter the dimly lit hotel bar and take your customary seat at the bar.\n\nThe walrus bartender asks you, “What’s your poison?”\n\n[[Order a drink|6.2]]
You arrive at Onufriya Trutenka Street.\n\n[[Clear the building|3.2]]\n\n[[Head to the hotel|3.2.1]]
"I already know Basile. We've met." Wolf says.\n\nDyson opens another folder. Enclosed are details about the Prime Minister and the political air of Ukraine.\n\n"So why me?"\n\n"We need you in this. You’re the best we’ve got.”\n\nYou smirk. Your ears perked up when you heard that. Dyson flips through another folder and removes an insert.\n\n"What we do know is that MI6 has intel is suggesting that FSB is plotting to assassinate the Ukrainian Prime Minister at a meeting today. There is no known suspect yet, but there are reports of a female operative, whose alliance is unclear at the this time." Dyson says.\n\n"And you know nothing about her?"\n\n"No."\n\n“Hmph, I’ve dealt with bigger fish that her.”\n\n“Like I said Wolf…watch it with this one.”\n\n“Alright, I got it,” says Wolf.\n\n[[Pocket the insert|2.4]]
Dyson tosses a stack of manila folders onto the table. The first is filled with information regarding rogue spy, Basile.\n\n“You need to read this, you have to know what you’re in for.” Says Dyson.\n\n[[Toss the folder aside|2.3]]
The plane lands in Kiev. It's a little airport. Unimpressive. You step off the plane where a corgi in a suit and tie waits for you.\n\n"Dyson." Wolf says.\n\n"Hello, Agent Wolf," He says, " Care for some tea?"\n\nYou get in the car with him and drive to a teashop. From the window you can see a park and plaza. A statue stands center -- dedicated to the fall of Communism and the USSR in Ukraine.\n\n"Tea?" Dyson asks.\n\n[[Drink the tea.|2.2]]
“They are useful, in fact, they’re lethal. What they can do with an acorn…you don’t ever want to know.” Dyson says, “We’ve taken long enough. I need to get back to business. Here…”\n\nDyson hands him a Bluetooth headset, Claim for a hotel room, and a false ID kit.\n\n“This is your pass in there. Any questions?”\n\n“Yeah,” he says looking at the hotel room ticket. “Where the heck is Onufriya Trutenka Street?”\n\n“Oh, it’s just down that way there,” he says, pointing with his paw to the left side of the street. “Past the butcher shop—and did you eat yet? If not, tell Sal I sent you, he’ll hook you up there—anyway, it’s right after the butcher shop on the left hand side of the street.”\n\n“They got beef knuckles there?” Wolf asks wistfully.\n\n“Do they ever,” Dyson says salivating.\n\n“Well, then it’s off to Onufriya Trutenka Street with me then…”\n\n[[Head to Onufriya Trutenka Street|3.1]]
Dyson shows Wolf a blueprint of the hotel. (U shaped. Small plaza with trees and benches in the center. Onufriya Trutenka Street.) He then shows him another blueprint of the building across the street (Square shaped. 8 floors. Taller than the hotel.)\n\n“Expect enemy insurgents as well as an agent because it is a prime vantage spot,” says Dyson. “And watch your back. Hear me? You’re the best we got on this job, we can’t afforded to have you out in the open. We’ll have a team of squirrels lined up everywhere the eye can’t see. They got your back, if you need them.”\n\n"Squirrels huh? That sounds useful.” He snickers. “Okay. What else?”\n\n[[Pocket the Blueprints|2.5]]
You take the rifle apart and put it back in the suitcase. Ralph has equipped the suitcase with a self destruct capability.\n\n[[Pull the tab|7.2]]
In the lobby, Wolf makes a quick observation. No immediate threats.\n\n[[Approach the concierge|5.2]]
\nWolf,\n\nI lend you 20G to blow in Moroccan casinos, and I have YET to get a dime back! -I WANT MY MONEY!-\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJimmy "The Neck" Girrafelli\n\n[[Back to Inbox|1.3]]
The concierge hands Wolf a key.\n\n"Breakfast runs from 5 to 11. The bar is open 24/7."\n\n[[Go to your hotel room|5.4]]
You shoot him from the stairs, his body tumbles over the balcony. Guards on the next floor will know you're here.\n\nYou look around. The floor is cleared. You can see the entire floor from here through the ravaged walls. You scan the area twice to make sure, but it looks clear and no one is coming.\n\n[[Head up the next flight of stairs|3.4]]
You move through the room silently as only a wolf can. Your paw covers his mouth as you inject the tranquilizer. He resists for a few seconds and collapses.\n\nYou look around. The floor is cleared. You can see the entire floor from here through the ravaged walls. You scan the area twice to make sure, but it looks clear and no one is coming.\n\n[[Head up the next flight of stairs|3.4]]
Wolf steps back from Basile.\n\nIt's over.\n\n[[Head to the hotel|5.1]]
You move through the room to him silently as only a wolf can. It happens so fast he doesn’t even pull his phone from his ear as he flies off the balcony.\n\nYou look around. The floor is cleared. You can see the entire floor from here through the ravaged walls. You scan the area twice to make sure, but it looks clear and no one is coming.\n\n[[Head up the next flight of stairs|3.4]]
You remove your bowtie, unbutton and untuck your shirt, and remove your jacket. You look toward the bathroom door and frown slightly. It seems Athena is taking longer than she should. You approach the door and hear her muffled side of a conversation.\n\n“Prime Minister” rings loud and clear as you stand ready to open the door.\n\n[[Kick open the door and shoot her|6.9a]]\n\n[[Kick open the door and subdue her|6.9b]]
You say, “And I was so looking forward to you.”\n\nYou redress and position your rifle.\n\n[[Look in the scope|6.10]]
The sixth floor has collapsed completely. The ruins of the floor below are visible. A sole steel beam connects both ends of the floor. No one is on this floor, but there is no floor only a steal beam connecting you to your destination. With all the exertion you are uneasy about crossing, but you have no choice as you move on.\n\n[[Cross to the other side of the room using the steel beam|3.9]]
Basile staggers backwards. He picks up a piece of piping, throws, and misses.\n\n[[Kick him|4.2b]]\n\n[[Duck|4.2c]]
As a gentleman, you allow Athena to enter your room first.\n\n“May I use your bathroom? I’ll just be a moment.”\n\nYou say, “I’ll be ready and waiting, love.”\n\n[[Undress|6.9]]
Spymaster: Trouble in Kiev
Wolf hops off the steel beam and heads up the stairs. You move up to the next floor which, empty, and that leaves the roof.\n\n[[Go to the Rooftop|3.10]]
Basile snaps his tail like a whip. Wolf ducks and grabs it, pulls him close, and punches him.\n\nBasile, beaten, lies on the ground. Wolf walks up to him. He scoots away.\n\n[[Snap his neck|4.3]]\n\n[[Inject him with paralytic tranquilizer|4.3]]
The title makes you anxious, as well as cautious. You check to see if Talitha is at her desk.\n\nThe message reads:\n\nWolf,\n\nI had a great time in Bosnia. Maybe we can do this again some time.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\txoxo Gisele\n\nAt the bottom of the message is a half-naked photo of the gazelle operative wrapped in a sheet. \n\n[[Back to Inbox|1.3]]
The leather of the suitcase bubbles and blisters before belching flames. \n\nTime to leave. You switch your headset on and leave the room.\n\n[[Make for the airport|7.3]]
You inject her with paralytic tranquilizer. You pick her limp body up and place her in the bathtub.\n\nYou redress and position your rifle.\n\n[[Look in the scope|6.10]]
It's chaos. People are running and screaming in terror, but you got the job done.\n\nBefore you can leave you must destroy evidence of have ever being there.\n\n[[Burn the suitcase|7.1]]
It's clean. Beds are made. No immediate threat.\n\n[[Head to the bar|6.1]]
He has no time to react dropping his phone over the ledge as your arms seize him around the neck and within seconds he is gone.\n\nYou look around. The floor is cleared. You can see the entire floor from here through the ravaged walls. You scan the area twice to make sure, but it looks clear and no one is coming.\n\n[[Head up the next flight of stairs|3.4]]
You kick him but you miss his jaw and catch his shoulder. He grabs you and pulls you both to the ground, he is trying to get his hands around your neck but you push hard and crack his skull on the bathroom door jam.\n\n[[Head up the stairs|3.8]]
You pull the trigger on the pistol already in your hand. You can see the stunned look on his face as his body falls to the bathroom floor.\n\n[[Head up the stairs|3.8]]
Your gun is in your hand, you bring the butt down hard on his temple. It knocks him out.\n\n[[Head up the stairs|3.8]]
You smugly tap his shoulder. He turns, still peeing as the urine splashes on your shoes you punch him. Once he is down you wipe your shoe off on his clothes. As you look around to make sure you are alone.\n\n[[Head up the next flight of stairs|3.6]]
You sneak up behind him and inject the paralytic tranquilizer right in his throat. He tries to scream or speak but it’s no good and he just falls over.\n\n[[Head up the next flight of stairs|3.6]]
\nWolf,\n\nI had a wonderful time in Tahiti. CIA is sending me to Rome. ;) I'd love to see you again.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\txoxo love,\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMargaret xoxo\n\n[[Back to Inbox|1.3]]
A green-scaled Chameleon in black lay on his belly. Basile. He is unsuspecting, completely focused on the shot.\n\n[[Approach Basile|4.2]]
As you board the plane, Dyson chimes in on your headset.\n\n"Congratulations on a job well done, Wolf. We found Basile. MI6 wishes to commend you on your efforts in apprehension. He's being interrogated as we speak. Unfortunately, we found no female operative named Athena Maria in the bathtub."\n\n"Well that's where I left her." Wolf says.\n\n"I believe you, Wolf." He says.
\nWolf,\n\nYou should clean out your inbox. Seriously. It reads like a Playbunny Magazine.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAlways,\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTalitha\n\n\nP.S.\nI've taken the liberty of taking care of your dry cleaning as well as any other cleaning needs while you were away in Bosnia -- even those damned bonsai!\n\n[[Back to Inbox|1.3]]

Athena moves her ankle up and along your leg. True to the wolf within, you close your legs, trapping her foot. You hold her gaze with sultry bedroom eyes.\n\n“Do you have a room, Mr. Connor?” Athena asks, breathless.\n\n[[Take her to your room|6.8]]
The door opens. The enemy operative is stunned for a brief moment. He reaches for his gun.\n\n[[Pistol-whip him with your handgun|3.7a]]\n\n[[Kick him|3.7b]]\n\n[[Shoot him|3.7c]]
Wolf slowly approaches a seemingly unknowing Basile. Like a whip, Basile snaps his tail at Wolf.\n\n[[Punch|4.2a]]\n\n[[Kick him|4.2b]]\n\n[[Duck|4.2c]]
“And what brings you here, Mr. Connor?”\n\n[["Why are you so inquisitive?"|6.6]]
You eyes trail up and down a sexy red dress, eventually stopping at her eyes.\n\n“My name is Athena Maria,” she says, shaking your hand. “I am the lounge entertainer. And you name is?”\n\n[[Tell her your name|6.4]]\n\n
It's clean. Beds are made. No immediate threat.\n\n[[Head to the bar|3.2.5]]
In true fashion, you enter the dimly lit hotel bar and take your customary seat at the bar.\n\nThe walrus bartender asks you, “What’s your poison?”\n\n[[Order a drink|3.2.6]]
You answer in your best British accent, “Martini, shaken not stirred.”\n\nAs you enjoy your drink, a delicate hand touches your shoulder.\n\n[[Look up|3.2.7]]
You eyes trail up and down a sexy red dress, eventually stopping at her eyes. A vixen. A fox.\n\n“My name is Athena Maria,” she says, shaking your hand. “I am the lounge entertainer. And you name is?”\n\n[[Tell her your name|3.2.8]]

You see the hotel concierge from earlier scaling the wall and he has an Uzi.\n\n[[Take the shot|6.11]]\n\n
“Stone. Connor Stone.”\n\n“Well, Mr. Stone, you look like I need some company,” Athena says, raising her eyebrows and looking you up and down. Wanna join me at my table?”\n\nAthena walks slowly away, slyly looking over her shoulder and swaying her hips.\n\n[[Follow her|3.2.9]]
“And what brings you here, Mr. Connor?”\n\nBut before you can answer, a loud shot rings out from the building you ignored. As you turn back, you see Athena walking out of the bar.\n\nThe Prime Minister is dead and your mission is a failure.\n\n
