Nathan sat in the outdoor seating of a cafe in Paris, the Doreen Cafe. He was currently under the guise of Nikolas, his Russian persona. He had been sent to meet with a Russian agent, before embarking on a mission to deactivate nuclear warheads in a military base nearby. He had been given explicit orders to not blow his cover, even to the extent of deactivating the warheads himself. He sat in the cafe, sipping a coffee, and preparing the files necessary for the other agent to go over. He had been given ID cards for the both of them, and a uniform for himself. He ran through the mission objectives in his head one last time, then went back to his coffee, awaiting the agent in question.
