Nakatomi Plaza in Los Angeles is where a special convention hosted by an American diplomacy organization linked to NORAID was inviting Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams.

Adams was to speak about the successes of Interpol in interceding in important terrorism-financing blood-diamond traffic into the UK threatening talks between Sinn Fein and Parliament due to rogue resourcing by rogue or ex-terrorists working on un-commissioned acts against civilian targets all over Europe. The Nakatomi Plaza event in Los Angeles would feature photos of the illustrious Gerry Adams next to some very valuable (and clean!) Hollywood diamonds presented by legal/wealthy Jewish merchants.

NAKATOMI: This will be a grand media-event celebrating the successes of modern governance/gems, and we've cleaned!

Amlan Satan was also an attendee of this important event. Graduate of Dartmouth College (Ivy League), Satan (Amlan) had written a Pulitzer Prize winning story about Bostonian patriots, underground operatives, lifting terrorism-financing blood-diamonds from corrupt Euro-barons by posing as theatrical masked sports-teams representatives. Amlan was eager to see Nakatomi and even perhaps meet Gerry Adams himself.

AMLAN: Looking at the interior models/displays of this awesome skyscraper makes me grateful I'm a rock-climbing acrobat.

Satan had read an important work regarding the troubles in the UK regarding Sinn Fein and Parliament before arriving at Nakatomi for this media-event regarding blood-diamond interventions by Interpol-relations and was eager to be a handsome guest at an event co-hosted by his ex-wife Bonnie.

AMLAN: This building sure is nice.

BONNIE: You're a Pulitzer-winner, Amlan, so relax and mingle with Adams; don't embarrass me with your antics.

AMLAN: I get to see this grand media-event while dealing with my ex-wife who's obviously not thrilled to see me again.

Amlan spent much time prior to the party/event wandering around the Nakatomi skyscraper and viewing the securities and structures and elevators and stairwells and lobbies and meeting rooms and shafts and electrical rooms. He's a writer, after all.

AMLAN: Love these patriotic posters on the business-room walls in commemoration of the 9/11 20th-year anniversary!

BONNIE: This party is just what Nakatomi is made for, and everyone seems very pleased and impressed with the event!

BONNIE: Join me for a private pool-drink, John to cool your nerves, darling?
AMLAN: You're nicer when you're drunk to me, Bonnie my love.

BONNIE: RIght!

All is not well in paradise. A team of infiltrating rogue 'ronin' terrorists assembled from underground groups around the world plot to break into the Nakatomi skyscraper during the publicized media-event and take the building hostage and break into the famed vault-room where $50 million worth of secret Nazi gold, to be delivered to an Interpol-bank, is stored. The terrorists/ronins are from various antisocial former or current terrorist organizations including Cobra, Century, Asia Thorn, El-Hamid, and WIRA are part of this evil team, led by the nefarious ex-Soviet officer Hans.

HANS: We want the Nazi gold hidden in the vault in this fine skyscraper.

ADAMS: You're simply thieves posing as terrorists on this 9/11 commemoration?

HANS: Who said we're terrorists?

AMLAN: My God, they're going to steal the Nazi gold in the vault and pin the crime on the Irish Republican Army!

The ronin-terrorists were also after a secret A.I. robotics model design blueprint in the vault-room of Nakatomi, a design for a super-robot composed of smaller robots who transform into military fighter-planes. The robot is named Superion.

ADAMS: What the hell do you want with Superion, Hans?
HANS: Well, we plan to sell it to the highest bidder in Sierra Leone.

AMLAN: I have to stop these guys; I found a mesh bag, and I'll convert it into a mask and pretend I'm some guerrilla activist.

BONNIE: They want Superion because of a black-market sale in addition to the Nazi gold?

AMLAN: Stay hidden in the elevator shaft, Bonnie, and I'll take down the terrorists and find a communication port to police.

BONNIE: Alright; stay safe and don't be stupid or too brave.

AMLAN: Right!

Amlan used the radio-room from the electrical section of the Nakatomi skyscraper he found earlier and called a construction company and then the police and told them that a band of ex-terrorists or "ronin" from around the world plotted to steal machinery and Nazi gold and robotics-design blueprints from the skyscraper media-event and perhaps even kill hostages and destroy some construction equipment and may've already hijacked some construction gear to make a getaway posing as a skyscraper construction/maintenance team!

Amlan hid Bonnie in the elevator-shaft and them himself crawled up the shaft like a spider, using his rock-climbing skills, thanking God he'd stayed fit over the years. He also made a Scarecrow mask to make himself look like some kind of guerrilla activist, loony by nature, so the terrorists planting bombs all over the building, wouldn't think he was a 'real' authority.

Amlan successfully communicated and convinced the LAPD to arrive with helicopters and attempt to rescue the hostages and prevent Hans and his ex-terrorists from escaping the 'scene' in modern America. This would become worse than 9/11.

AMLAN: These bad-guys are prepared and used their brought weaponry to destroy one of the city helicopters; damn!

AMLAN: C'mon, Mr. Satan; now's the chance to prove to your ex-wife you're a cowboy or hero; suit up as Scarecrow.

Amlan fortunately found a nail-gun in one of the unconstructed areas of the Nakatomi high-level floors and loaded it and counted the nails and prepared to take single precision shots on each terrorist, hoping to shoot them square in the forehead for immediate impairment or death. He then used a stolen walkie-talkies from one of the terrorists he managed to shoot to contact the lead terrorist Hans and told them that he's a guerrilla-cowboy determined to stop their Nazi-Superion scheme tonight.

TERRORIST: Who the hell is this 'lone-star' cowboy who thinks he's the lone-ranger or Scarecrow, Hans?

HANS: Relax, Itan; this guy's some couch-nut who saw too many action-films as a kid and just wanted to meet Adams.

LAPD: We're in constant contact with Mr. Satan inside Nakatomi and he's helping us gather info and hopefully not sidetrack.

LAPD: We're going to blow up the building before we let these evildoers steal the Nazi gold and Superion prints.

Amlan had 5 of the 10 or so terrorists executed before using the PA-system to send a fake announcement pretending to be one of the terrorists and ordering all the hostages to run to the rooftop, and the hostages thought the terrorist really wanted this order to be obeyed, while the other terrorists guarding them simply thought the voice over the PA-system was of one of them who'd been commanded by Hans to deliver the message and were simply unable to control the hostage-crow who began running up the stairs thinking they're obeying orders! This was possible, since Amlan had managed to find Hans meanwhile and tied him up so he couldn't confirm by walkie-talkie that it was Amlan who sent the voice-command to have everyone moved to the roof of Nakatomi.

Amlan then killed the remaining terrorists who'd 'escorted' the running obeying terrorists who'd made it to the skyscraper rooftop. Meanwhile, Hans and his one computer-hacker associate managed to untie themselves and break into the vault-code finally and found the Nazi gold and Superion blueprints.

HANS: We're rich, friend.

HACKER: I told you we'd do it!

However, Amlan ('Scarecrow') showed up again after leaving the hostages on the skyscraper roof to be picked up by the police helicopters and managed to find a nice black shirt off one of the terrorists he killed and a fake police-badge the bad-guy had in his pocket and showed up to greet Hans and his associate computer-hacker ronin in the vault room.

AMLAN: Hello, Hans.

HANS: You're a real pain in the neck, Scarecrow.

AMLAN: I'm throwing you out this window, Hans.

The standoff led to Amlan having to execute the hacker-associate who'd managed to open the vault-coded room before hanging the leader Hans off the skyscraper window, forcing him to promise to surrender himself to the police/authorities. Hans had no choice but to surrender.

HANS: I'll return from hell, Scarecrow and seek some kind of revenge.

AMLAN: What's that --- oops, I'm losing my grip on your arms, mister evil-man.
