    ... are all going to enjoy."

Eyebrows were raised, speculative looks were given.

"I intend, with my current ability to give you a safety-blanket while operating under my authority, to shake the tree, send the monkeys running, and see what happens. We will be doing the things I know some of you have wanted to do, but have been restrained from by current operational laws."

Kiki Narvaez then held up several papers for all to see, then put them down on the table.

"This is my authorization. I invite you all to satisfy yourselves as to the legality of it before you do anything. Your Chief..." Kiki nodded to the individual in discussion, and he just gave a neutral look in return. "... has already gotten verification in both written and verbal form."

"I would like you to do the same. Satisfy yourselves, make certain this is on the up-and-up."

"That said, once I start operations, if you have any objections... I do not care. If I say, then you do. You will not be held responsible for my orders, but if you do not carry out those orders, I will come down on you."

Chief's tone was only a little louder than a normal speaking tone, but how he used his voice, his posture... Kiki was put on her heels by this.

"You do not have MY permission to abuse my people. You do not have MY say-so to use my people beyond what they are going to put up with. You do not have MY blessing to run roughshod over those fine people's morals, put their lives, careers and families in jeopardy with your rage-fueled crusade." The Chief said, throwing steel from his eyes into hers.
