>>>>>[Frosty , Couch , you gotta level with us . Who the frag is
Bloodfist? Anyway , I xpect the pay to be good , so here's
the scoop:
The Nightsky had TT plates , and it blew away my spotter
drone 30 klicks out of Portland (I'll just add it to the
tab.) The suits nailed it with a SAM , fired out of the
trunk, even though I pack Mil-spec Ecm gear in my birds.
Hope ta hear 'bout cred soon . Stuffer Shack's boring me.]<<<<

>>>>>[Sorry about the double encryption, but I thought it was appropriate.

I hate to tell you guys this, but it just got worse. Some of you may know that
Gawk returned to the states yesterday. Before he entered surgery, I showed him
a picture of the armored men that attacked ya'll in the warehouse and possibly
kidnapped TK. Gawk flipped out and the surgery had to be delayed by three hours
until his pulse returned to normal. Orks are so darn resistant to "relaxers"

Anyways, Here's what he said: (edited for our innocent ears)

The @#$%, @##$, !@#$ French! Why can't they stay in thier own !$@$ country!

The !@$&in' soldiers are !@%#*in' French Intelligence Agents!


As you can see, Gawk doesn't care too much for them. I guess you can all figure
out how dangerous Bloodfist is now.

I've got to go, Gawk came out of surgery a while ago and should be waking up
soon]<<<<<

heard , they were doing industrial espionage on corps in
order to kickstart their ailing simsense industry.Maybe
they got too close to something the Big A wants to keep for a
summer release. Strange , though , Aztech's never been big
on simsense.Maybe military tech would even out the equation.

My drones are sweeping Portland as we speak.I'll drop a line
as soon as something comes up.]>>>>>

keeping relations with a corporation called TAG (Technology
Advancement Group), based in Boston. It is my guess that he
hired the PI to find his daughter, and that TAG has some use for

>>>>>[Mes Amies: I ran the TAG system last night. I would have posted
sooner, but I needed a little shuteye after the run. I found no new
information on Ms. Topaz, but I did find some other stuff. Rose's father
is working with a guy named Xyrak at TAG. Xyrak has also made some business
trips to Portland. When I traced the schedule to the destination file,
I got jumped by IC so thick I could feel my hair standing on end (and
that's kinda hard with my hair). I got through, as always, and found
something very intersting: He was going to visit a TT division of Aztech.
I have no idea what the implications of this are, but I am traveling to
the TT tomorrow (I have my methods), and will attempt to run the TT Aztech
system from there, so count me out of the other out-of-town trip. I am
going there because I don't want a trace to lead back to Seattle. Wish me
luck, and merde pisante tres!]<<<<<

>>>>>[Any word on those runaways? I ask only because a couple of Knife
Edgers were asking me if there was some sort of trouble going on: two of
their guys went missing while they were walking the turf, out Padfield
way, and they say there's a couple of people vanished round there.

Worth talking to the Star? If we've got folks disappearing, it's not
good.]<<<<<

*****PRIVATE: Easy
>>>>>[I already tried the Star. No luck. 'SIN of missing person?' Nobody
had SINs that we knew of, so none of them exist to go missing in the
first place. Besides, you're going to see cops down in Tarislar for
anything except a one-off bash-and-smash op?

One of the High Lord Killers is worried because her boyfriend hasn't
been seen in a few days. He used to hang around Padfield too, said he
liked it for the quiet. According to his folks he went out Monday and
hasn't been back, which is unlike him. I think maybe we need to check it
out.

Carefully, or whoever we send may end up joining the list of
'disappeared'.]<<<<<
