+++++ VOICELOG TRANSCRIPTS INITIATED
Ok, since you gave me a little kick in the butt with your message, Canis,
I've decided to sit down and try and tell you guys what's been up. I'm
using a crappy Microdeck Voicelog Transcriptor to transfer this to disk,
but it's all I have available at the moment, so please bear with me if it
glitches... You know how crappy ol' Gateses products tend to be.
Anyways, where to begin. It's been quite some time since I gave you guys
an update, so let's start since that little bug fight in Seattle after
leaving the Zone. If I'm rehashing old ground, sorry...
After the mess in the Zone, you know Me and Johnny took the family and
friends out to a farm. We specifically left the location off and rerouted
the original message through roughly 25 or 30 different locations to make
tracing us damned near impossible, since we seemed to have either a traitor
in our midst (Other than Stands-With-A-Fist), and we needed to get the kids
somewhere safe.
Johnny, Tailspin and Daytripper managed to do several pretty heavy duty
rituals that both shielded the farm and the kids from Ritual Findings, or
whatever they're called, as well as put up several layers of heavy duty Bug
Barrier.
After we came back to Seattle and had that little bug battle, we put out
some feelers and found out Stands had moved to Cleveland and was operating
out of there. We weren't really sure why she chose there, but we found out
quick enough.
Me and Johnny set up ops there, and hooked up with a couple of Troll
Gangers, Shark and Spill and worked out of there for a while, while we were
tracking down info on Stands. While we were there, we encountered several
insect spirits, and found out there were several small hives, both
Cockroach and Wasp, that were set up in Cleveland. There also seemed to be
several independant or very small hives working out of the area. We found
this evry odd, and so we did a little investegating.
Turns out that after the CZ went up initially, the corps, who had been
using Chicago as their base of oops in that part of the UCAS, started
spreading out into other cities. Several centered themselves in Cleveland,
including Aztechnology, Yamatetsu, and Ares. In fact, Aztech set up a
pretty large "Pyramid" HQ there. I got to play around in their computer
systems some when it first went operational and had some bugs and gaps in
it, but they didn't seem to have much to do with the bugs.
Anyways, I'm rambling, I know. Bear with me.
Anyhow, it seems that there were quite a few bugs that slipped out of the
CZ along with some of the corps just days before the CZ went up, and a lot
of those were centered in Cleveland. And that's why Stands was here as
well. After we stopped her from snatching Reba, and then hid the kids,
Stands hooked up with several other Mantids, including Johnny's ex-wife,
Becky, and were using Cleveland as a Hunting ground.
We clashed with teh Cockroach hive a couple of times, and after they
started using several of the Gangs as hosts, Shark and Spill helped us out
a bit with his gang, an off-shoot of the Spike Wheels. Having 30 trolls in
a street fight with several dozen gangers turned Cockroach Fleshforms is
quite a sight. And we'd have never made it out of that one without them.
Well, I gotta run for now. I'll try and get some more of this out to you
either tonight or tomorrow sometime.
