CUBA, GUANTÁNAMO DETENTION CENTRE - The US military are well established in Cuba. They even have a McDonalds burger restaurant, convenient to a Naval helipad, to keep interrogators happy while they waterboard detainees without trial, and pull out their finger nails.

<<<<<< BATTLE ARMOUR, BULLETPROOF SUIT

US MILITARY FACILITY, CUBA - WHEN PUSH COMES TO SHOVE THEY ARE JUST AS BAD

After all the dust settles, with all stakeholders battling for ownership of Cleopatra, and the Neo-Nazi replicating technology, the stakeholders various give in to US claims that they have the best capability to conduct medical, biological, and psychological tests, and thus preserve the high-tech biology, until a time when they have a better understanding of how to deal with it.

But, without the equipment that John confiscated from his Amazon raid, the current understanding of the technology eludes US, UK, and NATO scientists. The baffled bio-weapons divisions accept that the Nazis were light years ahead. The overzealous military interrogators at Guantánamo Bay, torture Klaus Kolreuter and Rudolf Kessler to death. The Baron Richthofen escapes, as does Franco Francisco, who both go into hiding. 

John, Dan and Charley consider that the behaviour of governments involved, is no better than the Nazi dictators who had aspirations to create a master race, that the allies fought in WWII to keep the world safe from eugenics fanatics.

History repeats itself. The powers that be, secretly decide amongst themselves to entomb Cleopatra as a potentially dangerous and useful specimen. They intend to put her on ice, in a watery grave, a cryogenic tomb as a modern sarcophagus, until they might have the technology to create super-humans for themselves as weapons, and fully understand the technology involved.

John uses his new intelligence and code cracking nano-computer to hack the corridors of power, finding out to his horror that he is being duped, and what is in reality being planned for Cleopatra.

The CIA, UNESCO and MI6, know they have been hacked and are powerless to prevent it happening again. They want Nanocomm's super computer for their own New World Order, of sorts. A world based on consumerism, the subtleties of financial slavery and unfair taxation, over freely admitted slavery.

The CIA and US military place a Catch or Kill order on John Storm.

IN THE SPIRIT WORLD

Anubis and Isis had watched in horror as US black ops abducted the reborn Cleopatra. "They dare to defile the sacred," Anubis growled. 

"To seize a life reclaimed from the underworld." 

The audacity of the American government, once a beacon of hope, freedom and liberty, now stained by corruption and deceit, filled them with rage.

"They have made a grave mistake," Anubis growled again. "To touch the chosen one is to invite divine retribution."

Isis, her voice filled with sorrow, agreed. "We must act swiftly. John Storm must be warned."

The two deities focused their divine energy on John Storm, sending a telepathic message. A surge of adrenaline coursed through him, a sense of urgency that he couldn't ignore. He knew something was wrong, something terrible had happened to Cleopatra.

Meanwhile, aboard the Elizabeth Swann, Hal, the ship's AI, observed John's erratic behavior. "Captain, your vitals are elevated. Is everything alright?"

"Hal," John replied, his voice tense, "we have a problem. Cleopatra has been taken. We need to act fast."

John felt an inexplicable sense of urgency. A premonition, a divine warning, pulsed through his mind. He knew he had to act, and fast.

Hal, was using his advanced AI, to monitor John's behavior, noticed a change in his demeanor, a newfound determination. "Captain Storm seems to be receiving some sort of divine guidance," Hal mused. "It's almost as if he's telepathic."

Dan interjected, "well he kind of is, isn't he. Wireless comms direct from his brain?" 

"You're not wrong there Dan, but this is something else I cannot hear."

Dan was confused to say the least, but a believer in the supernatural. Bermuda Triangle, so why not some friendly divine communications.

"It's something to do with Cleopatra's past. I'm sure of it."

"You mean the Afterlife, Ancient Egyptian Gods?"

"I guess so. Not thought about it quite like that, but you have a point."

"Captain Storm," Hal inquired, "are you certain about this course of action? It seems rather impulsive."

John, his mind focused on the task at hand, replied, "Trust me, Hal. I'm following a higher calling."

Hal, though unable to fully comprehend the gravity of the situation, recognized the urgency in John's voice. "I'm ready, Captain. Let's go."

As John and his team prepared for the rescue mission, Anubis and Isis continued to watch over them. They guided their every move, ensuring their safety and success. They knew that the fate of humanity, and perhaps the divine realm itself, depended on the outcome of this perilous endeavor.

The stage was set for a final confrontation, a battle between good and evil, between the forces of light and darkness. And at the heart of it all was Cleopatra, a symbol of hope and resilience.

Knowing their every move John plans a daring raid on the secure establishment who are holding Cleopatra prisoner, taking the fight to them at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. 

Out of some misguided loyalty, John thinks to warn Jack Mason to stay out of his way. 'Thinks,' literally, with his new ability to communicate.

"Jack." "John. Christ."

"Yes Jack. Christ has nothing to do with it. I'm in two minds. Do I take you out, or turn you over to the International Criminal Court?"

"I'm just a pawn John. A disposable asset - a pawn. I was duped and threatened if I did not follow orders. They lied to me."

"Anyone gets in the way, could end up in the Hague - captors - with their co-conspirators; if they are lucky. This is serious human rights shit. Convince me."

John was serious about HR violations, having visited Auschwitz and read Anne Frank's diary: Het Achterhuis (The Secret Annex).

"The big shots running this show include British Intelligence, NATO, and our own Advanced Projects Agency. I ran the risk of being retired - and I don't mean a pension. I was told the tests might take a little bit longer than you'd be happy with. To smooth things over. That's it. Blue Shield code of honour."

"Yuh. Real smooth ..... Jack, I want your absolute word on this - 'Blue Shield.' Stay out of it. Understood?"

"John. I'm gone. Unavailable. I want nothing to do with rotten eggs. Except if you need help from the inside."

"I'm counting on you Jack. But do me another favor - and yes - come back afterwards. The good guys are sure to come out shining. A reliable contact would be appreciated."

"What else can I say John. You already have my word of honour."

"Deal then. You're off my radar. Don't let me down."

In January of 2018, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order to keep the camp at Guantánamo Bay open indefinitely. Thus condoning torture and imprisonment without trial, in open violation of all that is sacred in a democratic, free society.
