Prologue

The street was atrocious weather: drizzle rain, and the wind seemed to be draughty. From this kind of weather it was impossible to hide, even indoors. Despite the fact that all the rooms are heated, every time the wind howled furiously especially like shiver and wrap yourself in a warm blanket.

However, two people who were sitting in one of the spacious rooms of a country house, completely oblivious to the weather.

- Do you really think that everything will go wrong? - Man at the window gazing gloomily into the distance, as if searching for someone.

- I can vouch for the success of the operation. If need be, even the head - the voice chuckled from the second chair.

- Here's your head and something would be in jeopardy if something goes wrong. To us it is not so easy to go down and you will also recall several centuries - man grimaced painfully and skillfully mimicking his enemies, said, - This is unacceptable to the civilized world!

For a moment there was silence in the room, which cut the laughter.

- Absolutely. You have an incredibly good at mimicking these nerds from Brussels. However, do not worry. Believe me, now is the best moment to strike. No one would guess that everything that happens - our plan. They have long been relaxed, grown fat from a quiet life and just that once run with complaints about the infringement of their rights. Just think, even at meetings and conferences can find an excuse to do nothing! - The country took a breath and calmed down a little, continued - all calculations are correct. Now or never! In the next half of century we cannot to find the best day: Friday the thirteenth, and besides...

- Hush! Even the walls have ears. Especially because of your incontinence can also frustrate the cases. This is not a toy. One wrong word - and we are on the brink of war, which we do not need. Remember - caution above all.

- I understand, but...

- Once you know, so do not interrupt me - broke off strictly speaking - no matter how went our affairs and that no matter what happens, remember one thing - politics is not the place senses. We must successfully complete what they started.

- I know - sigh ran through the half-empty room, like thunder - and I will not fail you. In the end, I learn from my mistakes.

One of the speakers rose from his chair to leave.

- Wait. Wait, - the head of state hesitantly approached his country - Whatever happens - I'm on your side, and we always have a backup plan, we will find you an excuse anyway.

- I know it - on the face facing the president of the state began to smile, but his eyes still had steel. Nodding slowly, the country left the room and went on a journey. She still had to return to the capital in order to complete all the preparations and create a convincing alibi.

At this time, the head of the country, frowning, looked into the fog on the glass, hoping to see there is at least a sign heralding good luck to him and his government.
