Profile of a Drone Assassin Operator
Ames had been recruited into the Righteous Wrath Unit 000 right out of the academy for many different reasons, one of which was the many championships he won in competitive online game tournaments. Of course, his ability to concentrate – a rare commodity in a world filled with attention deficit disorder Millenniums – and his unusually fast reflexes made him a prime candidate for the unit. But it was his total amoral and apolitical view of the world around him and his ability to never question orders that made him a man who could be counted on to deliver the goods every time.
In truth, Ames never gave any thought to patriotism; he just embraced it like some men embraced the religion of their fathers – with no questions and no doubts. His family had a long tradition of serving their country faithfully and unquestionably. The only time they went awry was when Ames great, great, great grandfather joined the Confederacy. And that was a matter of opinion. Some family members believed “Pappie’s” open rebellion against the Union was natural, while others saw it as an aberration. Ames didn’t have an opinion on the subject. He barely passed several mandatory history courses he took at the Air Force Academy.
Such a mindset and lack of political and philosophical curiosity made him perfect for the Righteous Wrath Unit 000. Its name meant that the good old USA was bringing the swift justice of Uncle Sam right to the enemies of freedom and democracy, using the latest in its ever-increasing drone arsenal, provided by the ever-growing and powerful military industrial complex. The 000 simply signified that it was a stealth, top, top secret operation that could and would never be acknowledged or revealed – at all costs, with “all costs” underscored by its triple skulls insignia.
