+++++Include: Interecepted signal


Life's a bitch, and then you marry one.


I don't know if there's anyone out there who can hear me. Hell I don't
even know if this signal is getting out. I have no idea where in the hell
I am, or how I got here, but where ever here is, I have a radio. To be
honest, I don't even know who I am. I just hope that someone on the end of
this signal can answer the above questions for me.


It's morning. I'm in the middle of nowhere and it's fucking cold here.
There's a cave behind me with a tunnel that leads to some sort of cavern
complex, it's been used heavily...

There are also various frames set up around the place, some used for
storage, others used for equipment whic...

...One chamber shows evidence of having been used as an area for machines.
Oil and petroleum are spilled on the ground, heavy bolts are set at
arrangements that indicate large machines, most likely power generators.
Some tracks on the ground and walls show signs of mounts and ties which
may have been used to hold heavy duty cables. Other caves have a variety
of detritus in them, indicating possible hab...

half and heavy haulage trucks...

direction. Batteries are almost out. I'll transmit again tomorrow at the
same time. Though by God it would be nice to know who I'm talking to. I
know the frequency and that's about it.

That's it sir. It came through on a frequency we haven't used for nearly
two years. 23.556]<<<<<

find curious. It seems that Achilles is not as dead as we might wish.
Someone is transmitting on their frequency. Whatever it is, I want the
agents loaned to SIGA returned within 48 hours, don't tell them a damn
thing, just make something up]<<<<<

Instructions?]<<<<<

FBI Seattle Headquarters, Seneca Street



*****INTERNAL: SAC Brion Cummings
>>>>>[Are you naturally incompetent or do you have to practice at it? I
find it unbelievable, utterly unbelievable that you can scew up a simple
request so dramatically. Do you not follow current events in Seattle, or
is it that your office is too far from the city streets for you to notice
that there is a world out there that rotates all on it's own?

My instructions to get our agents back from SIGA should have sent you on a
search through our databases to find out A: What has happened to the
agents, B: Where the hell they went. C: what has become of the relevant
people we were in communication with at that time who may be able to
assist us in locating them, and D: To prevent you from screwing the pooch
and making an ass out of the department. Ye gods man, how in the name of
hell did you ever get to SAC and remain alive?

Forget everything, go back to your coffee machine and plant pruning I will
deal with this matter myself.]<<<<<

division, would you be so kind as to see if there is a posting somewhere
like Outer Mongolia where a certain SAC Brion Cummings can be sent, or an
educational reallignment camp where they can implant something akin to a
mind in the poor soul, he appears to be severely lacking one. Consider
this a priority request. I want that ass out of here.]<<<<<
