>>>>>[Blitzkrieg, Phazee Loop, Paladin, Vincent,
You're hired. I'm still lookin' for more blkacktop pounders, but three should
be enough to scour the matrix. Our job doesn't have a lot of details to it.
We have to find a decker named the Dancing Mexican and eliminate him. The
decker has been hitting seemingly random sites in the matrix. He/she is not
shy 'bout killin' either. Dancing Mexican's icon has yet to be seen, but he/she
leaves a A/V frame of a green sombrero w/ pink footprints dancing around it and
mexican music playin' in the background. I am compiling a list of where the
decker has hit, and what has been done, when it is finished, I'll send it out.

By the way, our employers are a multi-corp task force on matrix security. This
shows how serious they are!]<<<<<

3 deckers, 3 mages, and 3 riggers. I could most likely use more razors
for the raid...the security is fairly simple, but one of the deckers
will keep tabs on the runners, the other two will be looking for a
specific datastore. The riggers job will be strickly extraction, I
need them to be experienced in rotor aircrafts, from a remote place.
So far I have one mage so please reply as soon as possible, as soon
as the team is assemblied more specific information will be released.
I hope to hear from you as soon as possible.]<<<<<

company, I'll go with you. However, if you're looking for someone to help you
in a little skirmish with the authorities, then I'm not the one you want, my
combat skills being non-existent. Cerise, I liked what you said about having a

"Greetings Mr. Fix-it I present to you my matrix logs for the runs."
The Elf Points to the far wall wich a moment ago was blank but
nows show a matrix view of the first target Renraku
shiping-seattle.
As you watch the wall you see a replay of Wildthing's run.
You see wildthing at the entrance to Renraku reciving dept.
Then you see wildthing grab one of the incoming packages and move
the numbers on it around thus making Renraku think the package was
ment for Renraku - Japan. Renraku moves the package and wildthing to
the Shipping dept to Resend the package to Japan. Wildthing jumps
off the package and enters the Data Stores and places Puzzle 1 into
the Data Stores.

" The Rest went about the same no problems and no reports of me
there as per normal"
You look at the Elf and he is sitting on a chair with 2 women.
