believe.
First we were hired for a little bit of protection work, simple pick up and
drop off and we were to act as muscle should anything go wrong. Hell how
wrong could it go.
The guy called himself Kentucky we hadn't heard of him before and all
our contacts knew was that a chap by that name worked out east sometime ago.
Thinking nothing of it we agreed to the job seeing as we had nothing else to
do. The pick up went cool, a suitcase from The Waterfront restaurant, the
delivery Michelangelo's the new nightclub in downtown. Kentucky asked two of
us to stay near the front door in case of trouble while the other two went in
with him. Not seeing any reason not to we agreed keeping in radio contact all
the while with each other. I.B.A. and Noname went in with Kentucky whilst
myself and Blade waited near the exit. Then it happened, setup, the whole
place was full of Lonestar and a citymaster had pulled up outside with cops
pouring out of. Kentucky then showed his true colours as he kicked in some
high grade cyberware and drew a pistol and badge at the same time. The night-
club became a slaughterhouse as Blade and I ran guns blazing for the rear exit.
I.B.A. and Noname were worse off, deciding not to take on Kentucky and the
two other guys in the room they turned and ran gettin bullets in the back as
they went. Noname made it to the exit first with I.B.A. covering his behind
myself and Blade were a few seconds away from it yet. The door swung open and
a large burst of automatic shotgun fire came through taking out Noname and
serverly injuring I.B.A., through the door 5 patrol cars could be seen. As the
cops round the back were getting ready to fire again our Guardian Angel got
there, just in time as far as I can tell. Polish, who we neglected to tell
Kentucky about but who we had following at a discrete distance should anything
like this happen, arrived in his Westwind, AVMS mounted and ready he took out
two of the patrols before they realised what was upon them. The blast took
a few more cops and stunned the rest of them. Dragging Noname through the
door and into Polish's Westwind while Polish kept the cops heads down with his
medium machine gun firing at the door we had just come through. We were out
of the worst of it as Polish pulled away at high speed though we had to dump the
car as soon as the 'coptor they sent after us got a fix on our location but
we soon disappeared into the shadows.
So my dear fellow runners on the net I must ask you a favour, no not why
were the cops after us, that we know only too well and regret our actions, but
a simpler request. A day of hiding in the shadows and tending to our injuries
(especially Noname's) has meant I haave missed out on the latest info/gossip
to be found on our wonderful shadowland BBS. Could someone possibly post a
resume of what has been happening especially regarding Tirandor, the women's
night out (so I know when to stay in) and any other little pointers you may
consider important. Oh if anyone has any info on Kentucky, all I know was
that he was wired to the max and he had a NY accent, then I'd be forever in
your debt. I think I ought to pay him a little visit :) ]<<<<<
