The Secret Origin of Guise- part 1

Commandant Clarence fascistly adjusted his extremely fascist collar with his ruggedly fascist hands. "I love being a fascist" thought Clarence.

As he strolled around the impeccably tidy Fifth Column research centre at his command, Clarence couldn't help but marvel at his own brilliance for ascending so quickly to the rank of Commandant in such a short career.

"You there! What is the progress on project epsilon-8457?" demanded the impatient Commandant.

The Fifth Column scientist, a devious engineer and once powerful scientist in the Fifth Column ranks before the failure of project betamax, replied in a melancholy tone.
"Infiltration of Lucas ranch is going as plan. We were worried that the agent’s wooden acting would mean his position as a mole would be discovered but remarkably we've been able to plant subliminal advertising in the Star Wars prequels."

"Very good, soon all of the country will be riding a 'Segway' to work and their muscles will waste away, making our inevitable takeover all the simpler. However, that's not important right now; I meant to say epsilon-8475."

"Oh. That project. Tell you what Clarence, I'll let you know when your pet project is finally getting results and you let me know when you've figured a way to make short pants fashionable. Understand what I'm saying?"

Just then a lowly Nebel Ubermenschen Rifle soldier burst through the nearby access door carrying a large crate that he scrambled to the floor, trying desperately to recapture his breath as he barely propped his frame up on the control centre's console.

Commandant Clarence prepared himself. Whatever was in that crate was obviously of grave importance. The scientist edged closer and cautiously lifted the lid of the crate to reveal dozens of neatly packed grey uniforms.

"Look sir! It's the new fashions for the autumn! I'm not sure about the logo but at least they're not as gaudy as the rags we've got on now." Exclaimed the scientist his mood now noticeably lifted.

Before Clarence could take a look for himself, an announcement crackled over the base PA system.

"Commandant Clarence, you have an urgent meeting in the conference room."

As Clarence walked into the stone walled conference room he immediately noticed the new decor that had replaced the familiar skull motif of the Fifth Column.

"Ah, Commandant Clarence, welcome." The small but stern fellow with the white beard paced about the table, moving around Clarence disconcertingly. "As you may have heard, the Fifth Column is undergoing something of reorganization. The new brand for our little enterprise is now the 'Council' and with this, my partners and I have brought certain core values with us that I think you'll agree are a little more progressive than what you may be used to. We have heard many things about you Clarence, your former superiors considered your ideas madness but the centre has taken a personal interest in moving epsilon-8475 forward as quickly as possible. I am here to oversee your progress 'Archon' Clarence; we are taking a hefty risk with you so you understand that there is a price for failure."

Archon Clarence nodded meekly, the small stature of this man did not betray his ruthless personality as he leaned over the still seated Archon Clarence to speak again.

"Then we understand each other. Excellent. Now Archon Clarence, show me epsilon-8475; show me Project: 'Guise'."

Ooooh! Is Guise really a bad guy then? Is he working for the council? Is he just another darned council robot. If so, Flitz will want to have a couple of words with him then, starting with 'Kiyaaih!'
