Message no. 1 >>>>>[ I just met FastJack in here!!!! He popped into the staging area
(which
is getting less secure by the minute). We sat down and compared notes for a
while. For the most part he agrees with the majority of what we've come up
with, but he believes that MONICA is very close to becoming independant on her
base hardware! Our only chance of stopping her is to wipe her hardware! He
thanked me for my efforts, and warned me that I had about an hour before my
safe area was raided. Fastjack, if you're on this BBS, it was an honor, and
good luck! I've got a new series of upgrades you should start incorporating
into your frames, but I warn you do not use the code as is, make some changes
no matter how minor before you set them out or else MONICA will be able to
ignore them.

relocate. Scratch two more reds. I'll probably have to slice and dice the
other three to get out. Stay tuned, I'll be back soon from a new location.
I'd like to try the game again, but it's too risky to do alone. I'll need at
least three or four others to help secure a system long enough to act as a
safe area! ]<<<<<

You like that, I've got more where that came from, C'mon GET SOME!!!!
Eat datasword!!!!!
HAHAHA, you thought I sent out all my smart frames did you! One down
two to go!!!
Hey, you weren't very tough! Two down one to go.
Hey, where are you going!!! Come back and fight you wus!!!
Scratch the red hats, but one of MONICAs frames is taking an intrest
in this node, so I'm buzzing, but I'm leaving behind a small army of
frames and a crash 'n' shutdown virus so YOU'LL GET NOTHING AND LIKE
IT MONICA!!!!!!!!!!! ]<<<<<

close off the links so that MONICA can't get out. RUFUS is really going
head to head with her. I think it's a pretty even match at this point.
Everything H make ground, she takes some back from him. DE, are you

Message no. 3 >>>>>[Whoa. . .
Sorry, I'm a little dizzy right now. A massive storm swept through here around
two in the morning, scared the hell out of me. I'm told that it's pretty normal
for the region, though that doesn't mean it was by any means safe. But despite the
fact that as storms go, the magnitude was typical, I know that it was not
natural.

You see, The storm knocked out power to the hotel (I've been sleeping there
since I get a discount and the whole ICbreakers crew is there anyway). This
was strange because we're on the circuit that feeds to the airport, we come
BEFORE the airport, and they were still on main AC. I checked their records;
they did not lose power or have to use emergency power in any way.

The winds picked up in intensity. The guests stayed in their rooms. They all
wanted room service, and guess who got to deliver? Well, anyway, I was walking
down the 12th floor when this huge blast of fire erupted from the wall in
front of me, knocking me down. I've only seen one other explosion like that,
when Spectre got nailed with a Hellblast. As soon as I recovered, I took in my
surroundings and saw a guy with a sword taking on some huge, disgusting beast
out of a Lovecraft database. I tried to move but found my leg pinned by a large
beam. I strugghled but to no avail. Swordguy swung and swung, leaping around
unnaturally. Finally, the thing he was fighting disappeared, and everythnig was
quiet.

Then he started swinging again, at the air. Wildly, back and forth. Blood erupted
from his temples. He fell over the remains of a desk, then kicked it free,
only to have it hurled at him by some unseen force. He BLOCKED it, no dodge,
it hit but he didn't seem harmed. He then swung the sword three times and
waylaid the air before him. The air shook and I heard a popping sound, and the
guy rested.

Now at this point there was a gaping hole in the wall and roof and we were
exposed to the elements. I made a noise and swordguy came over. He was Indian
and was wearing a blue armor jacket without sleeves. I swar I have never seen
such rippling muscles before. Anyway, he freed me and took me downstairs. And
then I realized who it was.

Now, it wasn't easy getting him to log on to this board. This guy really hates
technology. But he's not afraid to use it. I think he can handle computers
since they don't directly affect the environment. At any rate, I'm known to
be a rather persuasive young lady at times, and you should see a message
from Brave soon, as soon as he's done translating it.]<<<<<

Message no. 4 >>>>>[ I can't believe it... I finally got around to going back to
TT and visiting family and what should occur? It seems I am the father
of a bouncing sixteen-year old boy. Well, I don't keep in touch...

My son and his cousin have been raised together for the last couple
of decades while I blithely carry on with my amusements. I really should
be a more responsible parent, non? Oh well, it seems I shall settle down
for a bit, learn to be a parent and all that.. anyone got tips, keeping
in mind that this IS a teenager?

Anyone after me, do me a favor. Give me a year or two to get to know my
son. I'd really hate to have to kill someone in front of him or, worse,
have him hurt... ]<<<<<

Hey, Aardvark! Do you like citrus products? I mean the real thing,
not globs of chemicals that taste nothing like oranges, or lemons, but
the real thing? I've got an idea: we'll sneak you into Fort Lewis as
part of a food shipment, then you can open the place from the inside.
Sort of a modified trojan horse.

message at Dante's Inferno Bar and Grill. Don't call the other
Dante's. I also need to know where I can find everybody. This
mission will go off by the 28th. Call the bar and leave a message.
If you aren't home, call the bar and leave a message. I need to be
able to find you on about three hours notice. Things will begin
picking up soon.

Remeber, Aardvark, Basilisk, Spark and Tech. Meet me in Little

>>>>>[Freddy, I really couldn't guarantee that would work. It is funny now
that I think about it. Imagine, say, Aztechnology being invaded and taken
over by a lime, a lemon, a papaya and a ruby red grapefruit. What would the
papers read? A quote: "Arnold Frump, a postal worker who witnessed the
incident, had this to say, 'My God, it was awful. There was fruit everywhere
I looked. Then, when the papaya pulled a thermite grenade I saw my life flash
before my eyes. It was terrible.' A security guard was found catatonic on
the floor repeating the words 'Trix are for kids' over and over again. Never
in the history of the corporation has something this devestating happened."
The possibilities are virtually endless.

Aardvark, forget the fruit thing. It's a horrible joke. Sorry.]<<<<<

Message no. 8 >>>>>[Eighty years old? Somehow I smell that toy of the rich and the
elite, the Leonization process...For those of you that might have been
wondering, I mentioned in my last post taking actions against the local
Brotherhood Octagon. Well, I got caught up in some other business deals
and didn't get around to it. I also heard that someother group beat me
to it. Ransacked the whole damn place is what I heard. But I haven't
heard who did it. Anybody we know? What suprised me was that it didn't
make the evening news. Very strange. Besides, I think I reminded the
Brotherhood why they've avoided me for the last year and a half...In any
case, I'm afraid I have to go meet my accountant. Apparently he doesn't
think I can justify some of my recent business expenditures. Oh well.
Such is life "top-side".]<<<<<

you in trouble. But I didnt say that.

I didnt think I needed that much but its good to know its around. Hell, I `
just wanted to make sure I could have dinner and pay for the plane home. Well
that and I have come into a need for some...hard to find equipment. I wasnt
able to get everything into Japan that I needed so I brought the bare
minimums. I should upgrade my security provider status so I wont have to
deal with customs as much and wont get funny looks when I bring in a pistol
or a flash pack. No, on second thought...I think its time to hang up the
fetishes...this work it starting to become more and more harry every day.

You never got me the information I needed from a couple of weeks back.

I was looking for some information on a mage that managed to get ahold of
some information that he shouldnt have been able to get. No biggie now, just
wanted you to know why you arent getting an Xmas bonus this
year...smile.]<<<<<
