>>>>>[ Hello ShadowLand. This is Faith Kapinski of KSPY news, and through
the
help of an enterprising friend of mine, I am able to bring some news to you in
hopes that some of my questions will be answered.

It all happened just a few short hours ago. There were reports that Micheal
'MoonWalker' a Nova hot Rocker Star, who had burst onto the music scene a few
years ago and just as quickly vanished to parts unknown, had once again been
found, this time as a drunken slot in the barrens. MoonWalker was reported to
have stolen a Yamaha Rapier motorcycle and be heading north. It was then that
this reporter became involved, remembering the rumors that MoonWalker might have
also been a part time ShadowRunner and possibly the lover of the NovaStar
Rocker known as 'Sheena'.

We were able to catch up with the speeding Rocker just outside a Luxury Estates
project in Northern Shnomish. And here is an exclusive footage of what
transpired (unfortunately there is no sound)

+++++ Include MoonWalker video footage

The scene opens to a birds eye view of a luxury estates area of Shnomish, the
large houses and ample land obviously pricing them easily in the million Y. To
the south of the encampment can be seen a speeding motorcylce. The camera zoom
increases and the lithe form of a Yamaha Rapier riden by a small and thin person
dressed completely in tattered rags (some of which are less than whole). The
racer soon slides around a bend and approaches a thick but tastefully done gate
with security guards moving in from the sides to block or slow the speeder. The
biker does not slow but rather speeds up and is able to enter the gate by
scraping along the side of a Mitsubishi Nightsky, keeping it between him and the
guards. Once beyond the car, the Guards, now recognizable as Knight Errant
Security, open fire on the invader, catching him the shoulder and the left leg.

The rider swerves and almost wrecks, but is somehow able to miraclously aright
himself and keep on going; quickly rounding a bend before the guards can get off
a second set of shots. A few houses down, the racer slows a bit and looks up
momentarily as if looking for a specific house, just as quickly though he
crouches back down in the seat and gives the bike full throttle. Though the
bike is going fast, it is able to spin its tires for a brief second, leaving
behind a streaking skidmark in its wake. The biker then heads towards a house
that resides atop a small hill, with a decently sized winding driveway, that
would effectly stop high speed approaches to the gate. Instead, the rider goes
off the road, and onto the grass, nearly losing his ballance once again and just
barely missing the burst of bullets from a distant KE guard. The bike trys to
accelerate, and then is suddenly taking to the air off of some terraine feature
that is not noticeble from the air. The Rapier just barely makes it over the
stone wall of the estate, and lands shakely on the other side.


The riders luck ends there though as the bike rushes head long into a large
jumlbe of shrubery that knocks the bike from under the rider and proceeds to
hurtle him through the air towards the house and another bunch of shrubery. The
small figure is able to twist his injured body in the air and land relatively
gracelessy on the shrubery. Which he promptly passes through leaving half of
his clothing behind and rolling out the other side.

Flashing lights can then be seen from down the road as KE responds in vehicles
to the incident at the gate. A moment later the emense oaken Grand Door to the
house opens to show the monstrously huge form of a troll who easily fills the
otherwise oversized doorframe. The troll is only wearing a wet bathing suit,
revealing a highly muscled body with surpisingly few easily visible dermal
deposits and a large horn on the left side of his head. The troll is holding
what appears to be a rather oversized Super War Hawk in his right hand.

The KE guards are now coming up the drive and through the opening gate. The
troll studies the form below him for a moment and then his face lights up with
recognition and smile breaks across is large face. He then gently scoops up the
small form with one arm, easily dwarfing the much smaller figure, as if he were
a child. The KE guards have now sprinted to the house, were they are met at the
door by the troll and a woman with waist length black hair in a bathing robe,
who is not otherwise visible from the angle. They confer for a moment and then
reluctantly leave the still bleeding form with the people from the house.

The scene is quickly vacated with the people exiting to the house, and KE to
their vehicles and away down the drive. The gate closes behind them.

So ShadowRunners, do any of you know what just happend? Was that really Micheal
'MoonWalker'? Just why was he headed to that house owned by a William Morgan?
Is it because that the Morgans are friends with the Rocker 'Sheena'? And why
was he so bent on getting to the house so quickly when he probably just could
have easily called?

Does any one have answers or clues.?

Well, this is Faith signing off, and reminding you to...
