Chapter Summaries & Analyses
The big man introduces himself as Woltar, and the little man’s name is Lemi. They are members of the Dragon Head rebel group, but they are not enemies of the United States. In fact, they are trying to thwart Brevalov, who has sent a lookalike to assassinate the president by offering him a poisoned snake hidden in a ceremonial box. Woltar and Lemi have been planning to use the kite to infiltrate the White House, jam its defensive missiles, and stop the fake Brevalov from killing the president. While initially doubtful, Wyatt and his friends eventually decide to believe the two men when Woltar and Lemi show them pictures of the real Brevalov. Lemi’s job was to hide under the dragon and use his skills as a fork-thrower to kill the snake, but because of his broken arm, he is now unable to complete the mission. Suzana volunteers to replace him, but she is too tall to fit in the kite. Wyatt, who is the same size as Lemi, offers to take his place.
