| After Failure of Latest Intel-Gathering Prototype, Madeline Looks to the Occult |
|
After several frustrating failures
of new technical devices for intel-gathering, Madeline decides to give
the Occult a try. |
"I'm so tired of all these contraptions
Section puts out
that don't work!" Madeline told The Section Times. "Video-camera
watches, so-called stealth satellites, frequency tuners that blow up--I
thought--well, hell, I might as well give the Occult a try."
Madeline has started her new intel-gathering approach by reading syndicated columnist Rob Brezney's Real Astrology, found in freebie newspapers throughout the U.S. and Canada. "First I thought it was all hippy mumbo-jumbo," said Madeline. "But then I remembered that most of the leaders in Red Cell were Gemini's, and this week their horoscope says 'You could use your magic to make pigs fly or an enemy wet his pants in public [sic]. ' Well, obviously that means that Red Cell is doing cloning experiments and will be coming after Birkoff." She enthused, "It's easy once you know how to decipher the intel from the Occult realm." Madeline also said she was thinking of getting a crystal ball and taking witchcraft lessons. Amid all the criticism, Madeline still claims she is leading Section into the 21st century with her methods of intel-gathering. "I know what the operatives say behind my back. They already call me a witch now anyway." |
