The Forming of LAFE
In late 1997 a Mexican Businessman, Paulo Mensita, his wife Carmen and his son Pablo travelled from their small home in Mexico City to Britain for a two week trip. They had saved up for months to go on the short trip so were extremely excited. One day, Paulo returned to his hotel room to find the dead body of his travel agent in his room. He fervently denied being at all involved in the man’s death but was nonetheless taken into custody by the Metropolitan Police.
The police decided that Mr Mensita should be extradited back to Mexico where he was promptly convicted of murder and executed. Mrs Mensita believed that, had he been tried in Britain rather than by the corrupt Mexican Government, he would have been seen as innocent and stayed alive. She was prompted by these events to create the Liberation Army for Foreign Extradites (LAFE) which, despite its name, was purely peaceful.
Ryan Huish
Ryan Huish was blamed for a spate of burglaries in London in 1999 but nothing could ever be pinned down on him. If the robberies had all been carried out by the same person, as suspected, they would have collected almost two million pounds worth of belongings over the two week period that the incidents occurred.
In 2005, Ryan Huish was recognised by police at several LAFE meetings, speaking closely to Carmen before and afterwards. It was suspected that he was involved and information about this was passed on to the intelligence services.
Dana Smith
On a recruitment mission one month ago, CHERUB agent Dana Smith unwittingly met Pablo Mensita. He was too old to be recruited, but Dana got talking to him socially. He very easily gave up information that he was Carmen’s daughter and was staying in the care home whilst she was back in Mexico, organising various matters. He also explained that Ryan Huish was running LAFE whilst his mum was away and how it looked like the peacefulness of the organisation was “likely to change”.
Dana’s mission was adapted in an attempt to get more information out of Pablo and is ongoing to this present time.
MI5’s Response
When CHERUB gave the information Dana had gathered was given to MI5 two weeks ago, they rejected it, explaining that they couldn’t trust a teenager’s word, especially when the idea of was so ridiculous. Chairman Zara Asker tried to persuade MI5 to reconsider but they bluntly refused. The mission seemed hopeless.
CHERUB’s Solution
Since MI5 were so unwilling to get involved in any investigation into LAFE, CHERUB decided to take matters into their own hands. Mission Controller John Jones took control of the situation, taking information from Dana and passing it on to any cherubs who wanted to help keep CHERUB’s good name. Many agents have so far tried to help and, although some have helped, many have failed to uncover any important information.
Carmen is returning to Britain in the next few weeks and Pablo is hinting that Ryan is planning something major in that time. It’s up to anyone who can help to stop his plans before something terrible happens.
THE CHERUB ETHICS COMMITTEE UNANIMOUSLY ACCEPTED THIS MISSION BRIEFING. ALL MISSION CANDIDATES SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING FACTORS:
This mission has been classified LOW RISK. Cherubs are not required to leave the campus as part of the mission and any information about it should not be removed from the computer suite of the mission preparation building.
Cherubs are reminded that the computer systems in the mission preparation building work differently to normal computers, leaving no trace. This means that certain sites and features cannot be accessed through them.
I don't know whether to carry on with it. What do you think?
