>>>>>[Oh, is THAT all. Look, possesion by spirits, possesion by corps, it's
all
the same to me. I suppose it's not his fault, but he still sold his soul to the
corp in the first place. Join _them_, and you lose yourself, kinda like the way
Americans smother their food with salt & sauces until they can't taste it
anymore. Believe me, I know. I've been there.

So why, then, did this thing go after Widow's head? Just 'cause it had her
brother already? If she's amenable, we could probe her mind for the memories of
that period, and see exactly what kinda critter it is. (the better to blow it
to tiny bits, my pretty.) And whatsit doing taking over Genetek? I think I'd
like to take a look at that file of yours on this thing; it's shaping up
nasty.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Shadowfire, calm down. Look, he didn't sell himself to the corp,
okay? At
least, I don't think so. Mom and Dad both work for Renraku. I was being
trained to be a decker myself, when my boyfriend disappeared because of the
corp. I couldn't stay, it wasn't for me. But that doesn't mean Jack sold
out... he was transferred to Genetek without any knowledge of what was going
on, and its gotten him in trouble. He's family, I have to help him out. Are
you in or aren't you?

And about looking in my head for memories of that thing... it ain't gonna
happen. Read the file if you want, but we're dealing with something Astral...
at least that's what Blaze says... I don't know all that much about it... all
I want to do is kill whatever is responsible for fragging with my head and
with Jack's. If you're gonna help, you're welcome to, but if you're just gonna
talk about how Jack sold himself out, you can just frag off. We don't need you
to beat this thing. But we would appreciate your help.

That's all I got to say. Blaze said to download this file here, so I will. All
of you feel free to comment on it as you wish. Bye bye.

*****File Transferred: Legends: 200Mp*****

Have a nice fraggin' day. If you want in on this, better yell, because we
aren't gonna wait long. There's no time to.]<<<<<
