Lt Folami was already frowning as Natalie approached. The other 'person of interest.' He was under orders to make sure she, especially, returned to the capital. The Interim President had an interest in a princess of the CCD. His plans had changed in light of how things in the capital had played out, but he was an adaptable person.
Jacques stopped as he saw her coming, and nodded slightly to her. He could tell where she had come from, and could easily surmise that she had realized at least part of what he was up to. He was juggling too many knives, and it was just a matter of time before one found its way into his foot. "Mademoiselle Grey. This is Lieutenant Folami. He is under orders from Interim President General Wallace-Johnson to secure this camp. I believe the Interim-President wishes for your people to relocate to the capital, where your services are direly needed."
Lt Folami growled at the choice of words, "Interim President General Wallace-Johnson does not WISH anything. This is our country, Mr Danjou, and the General is taking it back. Your people are not safe here, woman. The government of Sierra Leone entertains your presence here, and so you will do as you are told."
Jacques still had his back to the Lieutenant, and winced slightly at the man's poor choice of words, mostly to hint to Natalie that he was, in the end, still on her side. It was just a matter of practicality; there was little holding the government troops back from violently expelling Danjou and her people if they chose.
Of course, Jacques kept his ace-in-the-hole nearby. He wasn't sure how much of a difference Jared could make, but he had seen enough in Jeddah to guess that the man would certainly take more then his fair share if it came to violence. Which, if all went according to his plan, it would not.
The Lieutenant focused his gaze on the indignant princess, Natalie, "Now. Get your people out of my camp. I don't care if you have to walk, but you will go back to Freetown."

Lt Kamenashi grit his teeth at Natalie's realization that one child was missing. He should have realized it; he had been in charge of the camp for days now, and had spoken to everyone in it. He had the nominal rolls, the head counts of everyone that had taken residence under his protection, and a quick count of the children realized one was indeed missing. A girl.
"Fuck. We have no time for this. Does anyone know where she is?"
His chosen team, Sierra Leonean men that were members of the Legion's auxiliary force, worked to round up the kids and the Red Cross staff were quickly trying to explain to them what was going on. Some were simply too young, and were on the verge of crying as they realized they were going to be taken away from the camp, from whatever families they had left.
Lt Kamenashi glanced at Carpenter and jerked his head at he nearest window, when one of the staff mentioned that the child, Ayo, might have still been with Azubuike, Natalie's friend. "Do you see a girl out there?"
