France-Brazil meeting

[farly]

1200 PM, French Local Time
Paris, France
Aboard a He-111 Bomber

The loud hum of the engines was starting to get to Rafael Cisneros. He had been in the plane for nearly two days, and he was ready to finally stretch his legs. He looked out the window and the sight of the Eiffel Tower was relieving.

"We are here!" He exclaimed to the rest of the group.

His wife, Maria, and his most trusted friend, General Eurico Gaspar, were both on board the plane with him. The re-finished interior of the He-111 was perfectly suited for the three of them to travel in.

"When will we be meeting the Prime Minister, Rafael?" Gaspar asked.

"I believe he has a car waiting for us at the airport, and another car for Maria to take to the hotel. We are to meet him directly after the trip. Hopefully he will have lunch prepared, I am starving."

"That is perfect. Shall I start preparing everyone for the landing?"

"Yes, we will be on the ground shortly."

Eurico headed to the back of the plane, where the guards were sitting. He told them to prepare to unload. He also grabbed the suitcase with the current maps and plans, and handcuffed it to his wrist. If the suitcase was lost, it would be his head.

"Hold on Presidente, we are about to land." The pilot yelled over the loud hum of the engines.

"Thank you Eduardo. Bring her in smoothly, we don't want to disrupt Maria."

"Will do, Sir."

With that the plane made a smooth dive. As they neared the runway, Eduardo, the pilot, pulled the throttle back to idle, and made the landing smoothly. As they pulled into the hangar, the 4 guards exited the plane, followed by Rafael, Maria, and Eurico.

Airport Hangar

Waiting in a stretch open top car Prime Minister de Gaul waited for the President and his entourage to step off the plane. As he waited with his wife, Yvonne, he wiped his forehead and said "Ah, my friend Cisneros."

When the President stepped off the plane he was immediately greeted by the de Gauls. "President I am glad you have arrived. Much awaits us today, but first lets get ourselves acquainted. This is my wife, Yvonne."

"Ah, Charles, good to see you again. And nice to meet you Yvonne, Charles has said good things about you. This is my wife, Maria. Charles, you have met Maria before."

Maria put her hand out to shake the Prime Minister's hand. She leaned in and gave him a kiss on the cheek, as was custom in Brazil.

"Charles, this is General Eurico Gaspar, my most trusted advisor."

Gaspar put his hand out and shook the Prime Minister's hand. Rafael could tell the two of them would get along. Rafael took out his box of cigars, as was customary around with guests. The fresh scent of Cuban tobacco was welcoming, the heavy aroma filling the air around him. Gaspar took out a zippo and lit it for him.

"Cigar, Charles? Then perhaps some lunch, I am starving."

He held the cigar box out to Prime Minister de Gaul.

"Yes thank you President." taking a cigar, "It is nice to meet you both."

de Gaul opens the car door and invites everyone to step in, "Let us ride to grab a bite to eat and then off to the parade. Tell me again in case I am mistaken neither of the three of you has ever been here correct?"

[farly]

"That is correct. This is a new experience for all of us. Where will we be going to eat, Prime Minister?"

As they stepped into the car, the leather interior caught Rafael's eye. He would be having to get a car like this back in Brazil.

***They eat lunch, the ladies go off on their own, they see the parade, and they go to the Prime Minister's office. We are trying to save time by doing this.***

Prime Minister de Gaul leads the President and General into his office and offers them seats. He then pours three glasses of brandy and passes them around. "Let us speak of our countries. Otherwise the our people may grow tired of our enjoyment of their money." he remarked laughing.

[farly]

Rafael took the glass from the Prime Minister.

"This is some good brandy, Charles. But onto business. General Gaspar, the briefcase."

Eurico Gaspar took off the handcuff, and handed the briefcase over to Rafael. Rafael opened the briefcase, and took out strategies and maps.

"Here are our plans for the war in the Dutch Guiana."

Looking over the maps Charles remarked, "I see you move quickly. I like that. You know what you want and you are going to move on it."

He leaned back in his chair and continued to read over the maps, "You know I still have some troops stationed that area. Do you have everything under control? Or could you use some assistance in areas?"

[farly]

"We could definately use your assistance. If you could attack from a position slightly South of ours, it would greatly improve our chances."

An offering of help from the French only made their alliance stronger. It would seem that they were going to be in this for a long time.

"Anything else you would like to discuss, Prime Minister?"

[cannon]

"Other than my concerns with my British ally." He leaned back in his chair, "Now that we are reaching this level of freindship I feel that we can discuss this matter."

"I can not get a response from the United Kingdom. I find this to be highly insulting to myself and the French people." de Gaul saying this anger in his voice, "All ask is that if you hear anything from them to please notify me. I will not stand for such disrespect of my nation."

"Please excuse my rage my freinds. I merly needed to speak this since I have kept it on the hush hush for the past few weeks."

[farly]

"Your frustration is very understandable. Brazil will try and contact them as soon as possible, and perhaps find out if it's a blatant disregard of your nation. As for now, my friend, I must be going. We are scheduled to have dinner tonight in one of your fine restaurants. Perhaps you will join us?"

[cannon]

"Yvonne and I would love to. We may have to keep things non-political on account of my wife may kill me, but that should be no problem. We seem to have covered everthing today."
