>>>>>[A buddy of mine recently came back from an extraction over at
Renraku. Well came back is probably not the best way of putting it.
Hes mostly dead. The only thign keeping him alive are a couple of chips
and a resparator. Most of the details were muttered over coffee,
last week. All I know is that he described the Johnson as being
out of place. As in higher up on the corp ladder than usual.
Any ways, there were only 2 people out of the 6 sent that came back.
Phin and some decker whos brain got fried big time. We're talking so
fragged
even the simsense couldn't pick up a scrap!
I figure they got about 40 mins before Renraku comes to finish the job.
All I can figure is that they hit somthing that fraged em good, and it
aint anything
I can think of. Probably some new Tech thing. Can any you guys help clear
things up??]<<<<<

>>>>>[Could I interest you in an important information snatch assist?

I am putting together a team to assist me in retrieving information about on
Teutone Bleu and his Ally Brimstone.

According to local laws, the summoner is responsible and legally liable for
the actions of that which he summons and attempts to control. On August
23rd, 2051, in Seattle, I was called in to consult on a case Lone Star.

+++++ Include: Stormwind.rpt

As you can see, the magical residue on the "hit and run" victim points
directly at Brimstone. Because of the politics involved, I was taken
off the case and not allowed to follow up on it.

After viewing the footage from the execution the other night carried out by
Brimstone, I am completely convince that he is my target. I need to gather
evidence to be sure and I suspect that what I need will be in TT's home.

I hope to recruit you and your special talents for astral free-safety. Where
are you currently based?]<<<<<

Thoughts?

room time as we can. I still have to of my people in simulator
training but we will be on site tonight by 5:30.

We have yet to set the length of our "training" or the duties you need us
to perform. We should get both physical and magical security teams together
for a quick briefing. I would not like to have one of my people
shot at while making a patrol pass because someone didnt know who
he was.

*****PRIVATE: Haze
>>>>>[Haze, I'm sorry to hear about your problems with our rogue
Lieutenant.

Shall I make you an offer? I have the means to get your friend Titan
released from prison. Word is they're not going to try him, SIGA are
going to mindrape him and then he'll be "killed while attempting to
escape". You don't have long if you want to save him.

What do I require as payment? The death of Jason Lynch.


I can offer you assistance: I have equipment and well-armed manpower
available and can place it at your discretion. I can also offer you
>>encrypted<< to cover the expenses incurred.

You may know of me. Like you, I am not well liked on Shadowland, because
I do those things that must be done. Like you, Lynch has interfered in
my affairs, costing me time, resources, and lives.

If you accept, Titan will be freed within hours: and I will await news
of your success.]<<<<<

*****PRIVATE: Tractor
>>>>>[Set up a prisoner transfer. I want "Titan" moved from
Seattle to
DC for full interrogation. Make it a military matter, some gear he had
or something. Tie it to Curry, it'll muddy the water and hide his tracks
too. Invite the FBI, so they don't get too resentful. Make sure we can
snatch him en route.

If Haze turns the offer down, kill Titan on the way instead, and have
Combine prepare some appropriate footage. Haze might actually succeed
against Lynch, and in an utterly deniable manner: this is too good an
opportunity to miss.]<<<<<

It will also take some small time to arrange a suitable opportunity. We

Lynch alone. I imagine this would be of assistance to you.
