>>>>>[ Well I'm sure that you 'll are wondering what Fenris and SpotOn
have been up to... Well thanks to some digging around by yours truly, it
is possible to bring you these highlights...

*****Include: clip2335621
The picture details a standard news desk type set, perhaps the only thing
different is the news insignia, it reads Canberra Nightly News, as the
backdrop flickers to the scene of a murder the newsreader begins...

"Tonight, a fifth person has been murdered in a similiar fashion to the
recent murders in Melbourne and Sydney, again the victim is a relatively
succesful public servant, one James Adams. While all five victims have
been found, seemingly executed in the same way, a single large calibur
bullet to the head, no connection has yet been found between the victims.
Tonight we will be speaking with Senior Detective McCafferty of the
National Crime Authority. Mr McMafferty, are these crimes connected..."

"Well Richard, while currently it is believed that the crimes have been
committed by the same person or persons, we believe, at this stage that
there is no other linking factor to the crimes..."

"So what you are saying is that there is a hitman for hire running loose
around the country, and you can't do a thing about it?"

"Well I wouldn't say that, we have identified several suspects."

"Is it true that a security mage currently recovering in Sydney Hospital
was witness to the second shooting?"

"Now now Richard, you know I can't comment on that!"

Well I don't know about the cops but there has to be some
connection between those targets, I manage F & S's accounts, and all the
pay is flowing in from one source. I don't know whats going on, but a
sixth payment just arrived, and it's big, too big for a single wetwork,
I know those two like to handle their own affairs, but, hey, they give
me a commision to do the worrying. Anyone know where I can contact a
someone, to, well arrange safe transportation for a couple of people
out of Australia, just in case things get really hot? ]<<<<<

*****PRIVATE COURIER
>>>>>[ I saw the clip Courier and I agree, looks like some friends of mine
who
I owe for alot of favours they've done for me in the past. I'm nearly finished
with some business I've been doing myself so I have enough money from an
advance to get them out. I'm instructing a common friend of mine and theirs
to take the necessary action. What I want you to do is try and find out more
details, they may not actually need extracting and this money entering their
accounts could simply payment for their services. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Nah, too much on, can't talk too long I've a seven line connection

can't risk a trace at the moment. I'll fill you in when I get back to Seattle,
should be next week if everything goes to plan. So about this job ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ No problem, it's been pretty slack recently, gang wars at at a low
point
in all this heat. No one on the street seems to have any energy to fight and
get their vehicles scragged anymore. Bit of transport work will bring in a
bit of moolah. ]<<<<<
-Speed (17:53:20/7.20.55)

>>>>>[ Ah Jesus Speed, you're beginning to sound like me and WHAT now.
Anyways
I'll let you have the full details as soon as I have them. See ya later.
