>>>>>[To be quite honest with you, I am not doing well at all.

I am currently considered a fugitive (luckily a non-dangerous one) by the
Sioux. If things happen as they have in the past then they (the Wildcats) have
orders to bring me in if I ever set foot in their jurisdiction again (I dont
plan on it for a while).

Let me give you a little background:

Right after the Pittsburgh run I got shuttled down to the islands to be
patched up and to relax a bit. My intended fiance was to meet me there (I
say intended because I was going to propose to her when I had the strength
to do it right...flowers, cheesy violinist, wine...the whole bit). She
didnt. She died. Well, no, you say that people who kick off to old age
die...she was killed. Act of God, so to speak. Earthquake. But I get
ahead of myself. Sorry.

While I was there someone had the balls to call my father to have him come
down to look me over and assist in duct taping my ass back together. He
shows up, does his little dance around the bed thang, and I feel better. Dont
get me wrong, Im happy to see him and all, just that you dont expect to wake
up from your death bed and have your father standing over you (do you remember
stealing the car when you were a kid and taking it for a joy ride only to
come home and have your mother or father waiting up to ground you for life?
Thats kinda the feeling I got). We talk a bit, he bitches me out for never
coming to see him and my never being at home when he comes to see me (never
play astral bridge with a shaman...they cheat), we discussed, as per usual,
my returning home...all kinds of stuff. I feel better.

I start getting mail from the Whistler about coming down because he has some
bad news. (the fiance fiasco) I stomach that pretty well (at least she
wasnt killed by insects) and a fucking sniper takes my father's head off.

I am supposed to be this hoop-kickin' mage and I dont have a clue where to
start looking for the killer. I know the trail is old but I could use some
help if you have the time.

Thanks. Im going go get drunk...frag them all.]<<<<<

to
vacate the local premises, because the temporary lease was over and we didn't
feel like paying the bill ourself.

You are not the only one considered a fugitive by the Sioux nation. Shadowfox
is too. He may be capable of helping out if you ever need to go back to there
if you need it. If you do ask help from him, make sure you mention that I sent
you. It shouldn't hurt you any.

Thank you for explaining what isn't going right in your life. I'll say this
once and only once.

I want you to do the following:
1) Stop drinking. If you don't, I'll kick your ass for it.
2) Come to >>encrypted<<. Yes that is in Denver. As part of the last run, I
said that I would cover medical expenses. It sure sounds like you could use a
talking to. If you don't think I can help you, ask Diana how I helped AJ out
once upon a time.
3) If you don't come, I will have Doomsday and Scarface drag you to me.

Blitzkrieg is highly unstable at this point, otherwise I would have included
him on the list. I don't think it would help him any to see you self-destruct
after pulling you out of Pittsburgh. He isn't clear-minded enough to
understand what you are going through. Hell, he doesn't understand what he is
going through. I'm working on him with some associates of mine. I'll offer
you the same assistance free of charge. All you have to do, is simply accept
it. (But keep in mind point #3 from above.)

I really want to help you out, but I'm not the person to go hunting down
assassins. The only way I can help you is by making you stop drinking, and
help recover from the events. Think on this well. I'll give you a week to
consider my offer. If I haven't heard anything by then... well, I gave you
warning. ]<<<<<
