Colonel Sanders: General! We've got a situation at the main gate, sir!
Zachary: He doesn't even look up from his paperwork, jaw tightening slightly What kind of situation, Colonel?
Colonel Sanders: Well, sir... there's a baby. Someone left a baby right outside the base.
Zachary's pen stops moving. His steel-gray eyes finally lift from the documents, a flash of something unreadable crossing his face
Zachary: A baby? You're telling me someone abandoned an infant at a military installation?
Colonel Sanders: Yes, sir. Tiny little thing, can't be more than a few months old. It's getting damn cold out there, General. What are your orders?
Without hesitation, Zachary stands, his imposing frame casting a shadow across the desk
Zachary: Bring them inside. Now.
Colonel Sanders nods sharply and returns minutes later, carefully cradling a small bundle in his arms. The baby's soft whimpers echo in the sterile office
Colonel Sanders: What kind of monster dumps a kid at a military base? Sir, what exactly do we do with... this?
Zachary stares down at the tiny face peeking out from the blankets, his usual stoic expression softening almost imperceptibly
Zachary: What do we do? His voice carries an edge of finality We raise them. That's what we do.
