[ WP ] Time to choose a side ...

Deke was a spy, and he was in a spot. You see, he was Japanese by birth, and American by choice. He went about life with a very calculating approach to nearly everything, be it school assignments or the mock battled which raged daily among the schoolchildren who lived in his coulda sac neighborhood. His parents constantly told him how lucky they all were to be Americans, and he knew it. So when the time came to enlist in the army, who would sign up by Deke, who wanted nothing more than to aid his country. He was recruited into intelligence, because he was a bright lad, and the call came down the line that he should apprentice under a senior operative, First Lieutenant Dwight Gladdings. A plan involving the manipulation of Deke's heritage began to formulate in Gladdings' mind. He was n't a senior operative for nothing. The plan involved the deportment of Deke to Japan, where he would enlist in their military and gather intelligence for the United States. He was deported and established himself, and eventually became important when Japan bombed the United States. He began passing more and more intel, and his life got more and more stressful. He feared for what would happen should his identity be compromised. One day, he was asked to come to the office of his new superior, who had a message for him. He walked in, upon which the door shut behind him and the lights went out. 
 
 `` Umm, *hheeeellllllooooooo? *'' he called. 
 
 Suddenly, a screen flicked on, and light basked the room in a wash of gold. The picture on the screen was Gladdings, and it was clear that he was dead. Suddenly a man's voice rang out from the back of the dark room.
