ANCHOR: And in other news, Lone Star Security reports no progress in the
mysterious explosion at the TechnoTech facility at ***location*** in Seattle.
The facility, the only location for the low profile bio- and cyber-tech
company, was destroyed in a series of explosions on February 9th, the first
of which occured at approximately 8 AM, local time. Lone Star spokespersons
have not ruled out the possibility of accidental or intentional arson. The
representatives that we spoke to did state that they had a few leads that they
were following up. They also claim that they are attempting to locate those
persons who were involved in the firefight outside of the facility at the time
of the explosion, but, according to officials, they don't expect much luck on
that score.]<<<<<

investigation into the cause of the explosions that destroyed the TechnoTech
facility at ***location*** in Seattle. Officials at Lone Star stated today,
in a release, that the facility was destroyed due to, "negligence on the part
of TechnoTech employees and management. The city of Seattle regrets that one
of it's businesses has been destroyed, but that this incident should serve to
heighten corporate awareness of the hazards of research." The release goes
on to further state that the explosion was,"...most likely caused by a
corporate employee smoking some substance near a leaking gas
main."]<<<<<

ANCHOR: And in the department of strange events today, there is the nearly
total decimation of one of Seattle's smaller, less well-known non-cybered gangs.
The gang, named the Scorpions after the type of 'cycles they ride, was
reportedly gathering their weekly fees for protecting the street people in their
territory. According to one survivor, ...

(fade to interview feed)
(A Scorpion member is shown. His face is beat up, his nose broken and bleeding,
his arm bending in places arms were not meant to bend. There are black lines
that look like burn marks criss-crossing his chest. He speaks in a broken
voice. On the ground next to him is a light pistol that looks usable with
only minor repairs. He's propped against the side of a building which has
seen better days. The gang member easily tops 240 pounds. There is some
brass on the ground around him.)

GANG MEMBER: We was, like, mindin' our own business, ya' know, just collecting
our fee for our protection. Well, there was this new guy, so we gave him the
scoop, ya' know? He was in a box down the alley, covered with something...a
cloth or somethin'. Anyways, Ginter, he's, like, explainin' the scoop to this
guy and the guy gets up. Big fragger. Least eight foot. Must, like, be a
small troll or sumeptin'. But, here's the thing, man, he's, like, got no
clothes on. So we all, ya' know, (wheeze) start laughin' and stuff. He just
stands there, lookin' at us like he didn't understand or nuttin'. Just
standin' there, holdin' his little red duffel. Well, Ginter explained the
scoop to him again, and he STILL didn't understand, ya' know. It's, like, ya'
just can't get through to some people. Anyways, Ginter, like, he'd had enuff
(wheeze) of this crap, so's he grabs the duffel outta this fraggers hands.
Says it's this week's payment. The guy looks like he's lost, like, all sex'n
capability or somethin'. He just looks like he's about to blubber. We's all
turn around, thinkin' that this naked fragger was just a baby. Was we WRONG!

We's strollin' outta this here alley, just got our last payment from that
naked guy, ya' know, and the next thin' I know, I'm, like, flyin' past Ginter.
Fragger had just picked me up an' threw (wheeze) me over the rest of the gang.
I landed 'gainst that pole over there. Yeah, that one, the one with the dent.
Now, our gang, ya' know, it's like a family. Ya' frag with one of us, ya' frag
wit' us all. Well, this guy was gonna see what that meant, or so we's thought.
Thom and Freddy are sailin' over the gang by the time they get the guns out and
pointed at him. I saw Thom crack his head open 'gainst that car ova' there, and
Freddy...let's jus' say t'at he ain't gonna spend no time wit' no girlies no
more, if ya' get my drift. And the fragger di'n't stop wit' that. I'm busy
trying ta get up, ya' know, when, like, my brothers start firin'. They hit him
in da' legs, in da arms,...frag, they probably hit him in da' head. I'm pretty
sure they hit 'im in da' head. I mean, even guys who've been metaled would stop
for this drek. It was, like, unreal. I SAW the shots hitting him...breakin'
da' skin...drawin' blood...he just wasn't stopping. He just looked suprised.
Like he di'n't understand what we was doin'. Then the fragger did sumethin' I
only seen those sorcerer guys do in BIG fights...ya' know, CORP sized fights...
he did somethin' and lightnin' just, like, FLEW outta his hands. Took down
Sammy and Harold...fried 'em to a crisp. I'm up at this point, but I (wheeze)
can't get a clear shot on 'im 'cause Ginter an' my pals are stannin' in da' way.

So here's we is, ya' know? Ginter, me, Perky, and Louie...we's all got this
fragger covered wit' our pistols, so what's the fragger do? He grabs
Perky and throws him over his shoulder like a bag of somethin'. It's, like,
unreal. Louie's busy findin' some sort of cover from this freak, ya' know?
He grabs Ginter, and, like, ASKS for his bag back, in a soft voice, ya' know.
Like we'd give him the bag at this point! It was our payment. Ginter, like,
gets all pissed off now an' says,"Frag you!" and puts his gun to the
fragger's face. The fragger grabbed the gun and did somethin', I don't know
what, but when Ginter squeezed that trigger, the gun was pointed at his head.
Blew it clean off, man.

Ginter's dead an' I'm pissed...so I charge him, ya know, gonna gutshoot him.
He does that lightning thing again, hits me in the face, and throws ME over
his shoulder. This is about where I landed. cracked my head on the pavement
real good, ya' know? I looked up, and he's just sorta sittin' there, ya' know,
sittin there with his cloth, his duffel, and nutin' else! Just sittin' there.
Louie, he, like, jumps him from behind, ya' know, trying to take this fragger
down. The guy just sort of seems to, like, GROW! He just suddenly gets all
hairy-like an' gets these mean lookin' horns all over his bod, ya' know? He,
like, takes an' elbows Louie in the gut. He sorta, just like, ya' know,
crumples an' falls over, holding his guts in.

The fragger just, like, picks up his duffel, an', like, LOOKS at me. Looks at
me like I don't matter. Then, ya' know, he leans down, an' hands back my gun,
sayin', "Here's yer gun back." Gives me my pistol, man, with the mag'zine kinda
bent over an' all. Turns around and walks back to his crate. Sits down an'
starts playin' with some stuff in the bag. He gets all shimmery, ya' know, like
the road on a hot day, an' the bullets we hit him wit' just start fallin'
outta him. Like he was using some sorta magic. Ping. Ping. Plunk. (wheeze)
He just sorta finishes up whatever it is he's doin, an' starts walkin' around
the alley, just kinda walking an' pickin' up stuff. He comes over here, ya'
know, and pours the brass an' slugs all over me. Makes a crack 'bout it,
sumet'in like,"I believe these are yours." Like it really matters. Gets his
stuff, our PAYMENT, an' leaves. Just walks away, bleedin' a little, but WALKS.
(Wheeze) I'm tellin' ya', like, it isn't safe to be out on the fraggin'
streets, makin' an honest livin' these days.]<<<<<

>>>>>[In firearms related news, major manufactures ARES and Olin -
Winchester made two surprise announcements:
ARES: Tests and field data show that Predator II's manufactured between
9/54 and 1/55 with serial numbers P205-231-5010 to P205-432-1934 are
subject to slam fire. The slide release of the Predators manufactured
during the questionable time period were manufactured by a sub
contractor. Tests show that improper heat treatment of the slide
releases has caused several accidental discharges. ARES
appologizes for any inconvience and is making suggesting that
all owners with guns built in the questionable time span take their
weapons to an authorized ARES dealer or service center for a free
upgrade from a steel slide release to a machined titanium release. The
process is free and takes roughly 15 minutes.

Winchester: Winchester announced today that it is recalling all 45 ACP
caliber (11.45 mm), 9 mm Parabellum, 10 mm and 40 Smith & Wesson
ammunition manufactured in the last six months. A chemical imbalance in
the primer composition has caused several incidents where a shock has set
the round off. In one instance in California last month, a schoolgirl
picked up a 9 mm round and then dropped it, setting the round off and
injuring the girl. In several other incidents, police officers across
the CONUS have been injured as they ran or performed other strenuous
activity, causing the primer to detonate. Winchester recommends
carefully packaging all ammunition and returning it to the dealer unfired
for store credit.]<<<<<

ANCHOR: And in other news tonight, there was a break-in at Sammie's, one of
Seattle's larger clothing stores. What follows is actual video and audio
records taken by the store's cameras...

(Static)

(Video feed from what is obviously a low-grade security camera. The scene is
from the inside of a clothing store selling middle-grade clothes. The
camera is focused on a large window in the front of the store. The display
in the window consists of average streetclothes and some slightly fancier
stuff. The window is reinforced both inside and outside with one inch
diameter steel bars. There is currently a gang fight going on outside on
the street. The glass is obviously bulletproofed. The gangs disperse (flee)
after a few moments. Out of an alley across the now smoking street walks a
hulking guy, naked, 6'10", bald, carrying a red duffel bag. With him is a
street squatter, grimy, 5'4", tattered clothes. The squatter says something
unheard to the big guy. The big guy nods slowly, and crosses the still
smoking street. He bends a couple of the bars in front of the store window.
He bends down and picks up what appears to be a piece of masonry that fell
during the recent firefight. He steps back and hurls the brick through the
window.)

(Audio: Glass shatters.)

SQUATTER: Well?? Get them for me! You owe me that much!

(Video: The naked guy nods slowly, and grasps the inner bars. The lights in
the store dim a little. The big guy starts to look VERY confused. He also
doesn't look too happy, but he manages to bend the bars enough for the
squatter to get through. The squatter crosses the street and hops through
the gap.)

(Audio: Crunch of broken glass.)

SQUATTER: You wanted some of these?

BIG GUY: Yes. (nods)

(Video: The squatter hops down off of the display into the store. He goes over
to the "Big Men/Trolls" section, and pulls some clothes down. He goes over
to the window and tosses the clothes to the big guy.)

SQUATTER: Now GIT! I don't wanna see ya around my box again!

(Video: Looking confused, the big guy takes the clothes and walks off. The
squatter gets a look on his face like a little urchin in a candy shop. He is
still partying hard with his new clothes when Lone Star Security shows up.
Lone Star takes the squatter away.)

(Static)

ANCHOR: As you can see, Lone Star Security apprehended one suspect, identified
as Johnathan F. Farkas. Mr. Farkas is wanted on a number of counts of
vagrancy and other misdemeanor crimes. His large "friend" seems to have
evaded all efforts to track him down. When questioned about his large friend,
Mr. Farkas had the following to say...

(Video: Replay of the security feed.)
(Audio voiceover...)

LONE STAR: So, tell us about your large friend, Mr. Farkas...

FARKAS: Well, there isn't a lot to tell. I went out of my alley for a little
bit this morning, and when I got back to my box, he was there. MY box. NOT
his. MINE! Well, when I shouted at him, he got this great pitiful look on
his face. Looked like he was gonna cry or some drek like that. Anyway, he
needed clothes, I needed clothes, the shop had clothes. After the Alphas and
the Rurens cleared off from their rumble, I sent him over to get us some stuff.
The rest is history.

LONE STAR: Did he tell you his name?

FARKAS: Nope. He didn't make a single sound.

(Video returns to anchor)

ANCHOR: Lone Star has not yet issued any form of statement on the mysterious
man in this incident. In other related news, Lone Star has issued an official
statement that, during their breakup of the gang fight last night between
the Romeos and the Patots, three officers were injured. All three officers
were apparently firing weapons which had been damaged by gang gunfire. Each
officer in convalescing in an undisclosed location for the time
being.]<<<<<

HELICOPTER CRASH CLAIMS TWO INTERNATIONAL TERRORISTS: (Seattle):
Several hours ago, a Renraku registered helicopter, the lone occupants
a pair of major international terrorists, crashed outside of city
limits. Although the two bodies were burned beyond recognition, crash
investigators have confirmed that the DNA samples perfectly match other
known samples of the terrorists Boris and Semetex. According to Steven
Scwartz, one of the investigators, Boris was flying the Bell 671 helicopter
and Semetex was in the passenger compartment when a large explosive
charge detonated on or near Semetex. The corner has confirmed that
Semetex was killed by the initial explosion, while Boris's cause of death
is listed as the subsequent crash and fire.

Boris was first noted for working for the Russian government during the
2020's as a covert operations specialist. He subsequently worked for the
American Central Intelligence Agency and then went freelance. For the
last twenty five years, Boris has taken some of the most ruthless jobs.
He will not be missed.

John McCarthy, alias Semetex, was born in 2005 near the Mexican border.
He began to work for the Central Intelligence Agency in 2023. Retired in
good standing in 2047 to go freelance. Since then, he has been known to
be responsible for several terroristic acts 'of good conscience,'
including the recent destruction of a major cocaine production facility.

Jessica born 2029. Wife and daughter died in 2029 in a suspicious

RENRAKU ANOUNCES NEW VICE PRESIDENT

<Seattle> Late today, Renraku officials announced that they had hired a
new vice president to replace the departed Ms. McClure. The new vice
president, Dilbert Jones, a specialist in increasing productivity, was
recently deported from Uganda for human rights violations. Jones said,
"I am happy to take over the position. Ms. McClure wasn't the right
person for the job - she was too soft, too loose with the money. Renraku
workers are no longer as efficient as our competators workers. That is
going to change. I am pleased to become part of the Renraku corporate
family." When asked about being deported for human rights violations,
Jones smiled and said, "their productivity went up 75% while I was
there. I heard no complaints from the workers while I was there. The
deportation came as a shock to me. I wasn't doing anything wrong."
Other bystanders at the announcement didn't seem quite as happy as Mr.
Jones. A Renraku executive who asked to remain nameless said, "This is
about the worst thing that could have happened to Renraku. Jones may
improve productivity, but he kills the moral - and often the workers."
Company officials also implied that they are no closer to finding Ms.
McClure's killer and are still looking out for her.]<<<<<

Eye on Seattle News Feed -----------------------------------------

Last night, officers from Lone Star Security and the Metroplex Guard
responded to reports of a bomb in a downtown apartment building.

I got a chance to talk to Mr. Carriole's widow about the initial
explosion:

"Harry, was just going up to talk to the new guy. He was a freak! a
freak I tell you! He was one of those filthy mercenaries that fought
in the Eurowar or something. He just had that stare. Like somebody
on chips or drugs or something. I tell ya, the Star isn't doing its
job anymore. Freaks like that should be taken off the street! Taken
off the street and flogged. And tortured. And executed. Dammit he
killed Harry. There was nothing left of him! Just blew up the
whole damn hallway. Couldn't have just bashed 'im over the 'ead.
Nooo! Had to deface the building too."

Lone Star officers were at the scene of the explosion within minutes
of the initial report, well before arrival of units from local fire
fighting contractors. The first officers into the building
were Patrol Officers Dent and Prefect. They were found dead in the
building's elevator. Speculative autopsy reports suggest that they
died of inhaled toxins, specifically, industrial grade insecticide,
similar to that used in Europe to control the parainsects that ravage
the countryside. Apparently at the same time, the mechanisms of the
elevator were melted down with thermite charges, so Officers Dent and
Prefect could not be reached until after the building had been
secured.

Another pair of, yet unnamed, officers tried to take the stairs to
the fifth floor apartment of the believed bomber: one Jacques St.
Jean. The same stairwell in which Mr. Corriole had died. These
officers were also killed by close explosions of fragmenting grenades.

I'm told that St. Jean was identified only by his fingerprints, but
these match those of a memeber of the CAS Marine Corps killed seven
years ago in a training accident in Norfolk Harbor, Va., CAS. No
body was ever recovered. Maybe the police will have to call this one
a Jean Doe?

By now, Lone Star officers began to call for back-up. First to
arrive on the scene were members of Lone Star's Astral Security
Division. Two mage detectives attempted to enter the building
astrally, though both were turned back by a high power astral ward on
the top floor.

A team from the Explosive Ordinace Disposal Division prepared to send
a disarmer drone to clear a path for Lone Star officers. The
first drone was able to clear several traps out of the stairwell
and approached the fourth floor. Here on the landing, the drone
crawled into a net trap which pulled the drone about a meter into the
air in a charged net. The drone was eventually recovered, though
only about 20% is salvageable due to the severe electrical shock it
received. I'm told that a charge of this nature would have killed
any human who stepped into the net. The second drone managed to work
its way to the fifth floor before being stopped.

I was shown trid taken by Lone Star officers after the building was
secured. I'll describe the trid to you as I watch it, as it has not
been released for public dissemination.

The trid begins with the camera man coming onto the fifth floor
landing. The wall to the camera's right is riddled with bullet
holes and drenched in the blood of officers who fell here. As he
rounds the corner he angles the camera down to the remains of
the second drone. It appears to be caught in some kind of steel trap.
A spring driven affair that I'm told was once used in the capture of
large predators. The trap has cleaved completely through the drone,
which has also sustained numerous hits. At the end of hall is the
remains of what looks to be some kind of tripod. A mass of
electronics atop the tripod enclose what appears to be an assault
rifle of some form.

As the cameraman walks down the hallway, both walls are filled with
bullet holes. The wall on the left, the wall of the apartment
protected by the magical barrier, has several large holes
punched through it. I'm told those were made by grenades launched
though the thin plaster wall. Apparently they were set with delayed
fuses to explode in the hallway after punching through the wall. In
one place, the hallway appears to be scorched, as if by a fireball.
I'm told the suspect in custody is a mundane so authorities believe
he was assisted by a magician. Possibly the same that later attacked
Metroplex Guard mages in astral combat.

Approaching the door to St. Jean's apartment the floor becomes
slippery with shell casings and the cameraman falls twice.
The apartment door appears to have been shot through with several
shotgun blasts. At this time Lone Star officers called in members of
the Metroplex Guard's SWAT Team to attempt to storm the apartment.
Members of the SWAT team were held to the doorway by extended bursts
of automatic weapons fire. While St. Jean was attempting to reload,
an SWAT member rolled a concussion grenade into the room. I'm told
that St. Jean was able to the kick the grenade back into the hallway,
where it injured four officers. As medical teams worked on the
fallen officers, a pair of officers lobbed multiple grenades into the
apartment. St Jean was not able to retreive these and sustained
several blasts from within three meters.

Inside St. Jean's apartment, cases of food and ammunition are stacked
everywhere. Like in the hallway, casings from rifles, shotguns and
grenades litter the room. I'm told that St. Jean had accumulated
weapons ranging from hold-out pistols, and shotguns to assault rifles
with under barrel grenade launchers as well as more than fifteen
thousand rounds of assorted ammunition, enough food and water to
sustain himself against a three month siege and two gross cans of
industrial insecticide.

After the smoke had settled, the final score was 11-1, St. Jean
leading the authorities. The deaths of Six Lone Star patrol officers,
two EOD specialists from Lone Star, two members of the Metroplex
Guard, and the landlord, Mr. Harry Carriole could all be directly
attributed to St. Jean. As many as thirty other law enforcement
officials sustained injuries ranging from sever puncture trauma and
"sucking" chest wounds to first degree burns. Jacques St. Jean is
being held at the Fort Lewis maximum security hospital in critical
condition, pending trial. He faces eleven counts of second degree
murder, three charges of arson, as many as twenty-three counts of
possession of unliscensed firearms, disturbing the peace, resisting
arrest and up to fifty charges of assault with intent to kill.
Needless to say, Mr. St. Jean faces life imprisonment with a chance
for parole in eight to ten with good behavior. Due to the excessive
nature of this incident, the North American Civil Liberties Union
refuses to supply Mr. St. Jean with legal counsel. He will likely be
defended by a Public Defender assigned by Governor Schultz.

During the assault on St. Jean's apartment, members of the
Metroplex Guard's Hermetic Section were attacked while in astral
space after penetrating the ward protecting St. Jean. One of these
combat mages was able to counterattack, driving off the assailant,
but not before three officers were killed in astral combat. No
comment is available regarding this incident or the magiks at work
in and around St. Jean's apartment.

After this action, the people of Seattle should ask themselves if
Lone Star is really protecting the people has they should in their
contract <5.7 Mp deleteed by sysop>

Apparently, Mr. Doe / St. Jean, has recieved extensive cyber damage
resulting from the multiple, close range concussive grenades used in
his apprehension on the 14th. Sources, that have asked to remain
unidentified, revealed to me that Mr. St. Jean's sensory interface
has been heavily damaged, resulting in massive feedbacks and short
circuits. When Mr. St. Jean regained conciousnous, the system began
causing massive convulsions and spasms. Mr. St. Jean has little
control of his limbs and is only margainallyu coherent. The NACLU
has intervened in this case slaiming that Lone Star used unnecessary
force in Mr. St. Jean's apprehension, and that by not repairing the
damaged interface, they are causing him cruel and unusual punishment,
in violation of the UCAS Constitution. They have initiated a suit on
behalf of Mr. St. Jean for 100 million nuyen against Lone Star and
the Metroplex Government, as well as offering legal counsel.]<<<<<

came across this scene today. I thought that you might be interested in
checking this out. So, for all your viewing enjoyment, here you are . . .

+++++INCLUDE: video-feed.upload

The scene slowly fades from black to a picture of a smoking mass of ruble.
It appears to have been a building once upon a time. According to the sign
that is still standing about 50 feet away, it was a bar only a few minutes
ago. Now, however, only one wall is standing and it is a blackened and
burnt mess. Several emergency vehicles are parked in a half-circle around
what used to be the entrance to the building and firefighters are putting
out what little of the fire is left while Lone Star officers are pulling
large blackened corpses from the rubble. The surrounding buildings have
large scorch marks going up their walls and most windows in the surrounding
area are shattered inward. Across the sidewalk, approximately 50 body bags
have been laid out and over half of them are full now and it doesn't
look like there will be any trouble filling the rest.

A female news correspondent break the silence. "Only 20 minutes ago this
evening, the Red Martinelli, which is known to cater to trolls more than any
other, was stuffed full in the usual evening rush for some beer, wine, and
fun. However, according to witnesses, approximately 15 minutes ago, this bar
blew apart into a massive fireball. So far, no survivors have been found.
This is WGNA correspondent Donna Shirfield reporting. Stay tuned for the
latest news, weather, and sports. Back to you Tim . . ."

The wail of emergency sirens can be heard in the background as a young
male news correspondant raises his voice to be heard about the
screams, shouts, sirens, and the crackle of the fire in the
background. "For the second time in less than 48 hours, a bar has
mysteriously exploded while full with the usual evening rush. This
time, it was the Shorwin Cocktail that was demolished. Witnesses
around the scene only seconds before it turned into a flaming fire
ball report seeing nothing out of the ordinary. Despite out prodding,
Lone Star has no comments at this time."

The camera pans the scene displaying the carnage left after a
moderately sized bar that used to sit on the corner of this block
exploded spreading flames and building materials for several dozen
feet. On the far side of the scene, you can see officials loading
large corpses into a van headed for the police station.

The report continues, "As of so far, no survivors have been found.
For the latest news, tune in to KRHA. This is Jack Grimaldi reporting."

The camera fades to black . . .

+++++INCLUDE: video-feed.data

The camera fades in showing a news anchorwoman sitting at her desk
rearranging her notes. On the projection screen to her side, a HRRS
Channel 201 logo is fading out. The woman begins, "For the third time
in three days, a moderate-sized bar has mysteriously exploded during
the evening rush. Two nights ago, it was the Red Martinelli that blew
up resulting in over 70 deaths from inside the bar as well as almost
25 people injured from flying debris. Last night, the Shorwin
Cocktail went up in a fireball, killing 47 and injuring 58. Tonight,
only two hours ago, the Gold Tusk was utterly demolished by a large
explosion. We had a news correspondent on the scene within minutes
and she kept us up to date with the last minute details. She is still
at the scene and we will go to her now. Live . . .

The image changes from the inside of the news studio to the all too
familiar scene of a destroyed bar in the background. The remains have
cooled enough that teams of investigators are combing through the
wreckage searching for clues to the explosion. After panning around
the scene and surrounding buildings, showing the large amounts of
damage done to the area, the camera focuses on a young elven news
correspondent who beings to speak. "Approximately two hours ago, the
Gold Tusk was full of the usual evening crowds. We have here a small
clip from the security cameras that used to be inside of the, now,
utterly destroyed bar. Bob, can you roll . . . thanks."

The scene shifts again, this time to a view of a crowded bar. The
viewpoint is from what you would expect to be seen from an upper-corner
of the room. Down on the floor, dozens of patrons are drinking, eating,
and talking. You notice that they are largely trolls with a few humans,
orks, and only a couple elves mixed in. Just as abruptly as the scene
begin, it ends and the correspondent continues.

Then, at approximately 6:25 p.m. this evening, the bar was completely
destroyed by a large blast that appears to have origionated from
inside the building. At the present, Lone Star is offering no
comments for the press other than that every possible effort is being
made to find the person or people responsible for these serious crimes
and that if you have any tips, please call them in at >>encrypted<<.
Back to you Janet . . ."

The scene switches back to the studio and the anchorwoman continues.
"This most recent attack has left 75 people dead and 103 wounded, 14
are in critical condition. Once again, if you have any helpful
information, please call Lone Star at >>encrypted<< or call our
hotline at >>encrypted<<. Other stories of the day include . . .

The scene clears to show a news correspondent behind her desk. Her
plastic smile looks all to familiar as she speaks. "After a peaceful
weekend, the bars seem to be making a recovery from the drop in
attendance that struck after the unexpected terrorist attack on the
Ice Satrinia. Figures show that the number of customers frequenting
bars has risen up to within 5% of where they were before the attacks
begin. Apparently, the excitement of the last couple weeks has not
been contained entirely inside of this city. According to sources,
all three of the recently destroyed bars have had agents of the FBI
crawling all over them for the weekend. We questioned Lone Star about
their progress in the case. As usual, they declined to comment other
than by saying that everything possible is being done to bring the
criminals to justice. Red Lime, Inc. has also been surprisingly quiet
for the weekend. The only sources of activity that we've seen has
been their agents at the scenes of the crime. Word on the street is
that something big is going to go down, but what it is has elluded our
sources. As usual, this is Janni Grandos reporting for TNIC bringing

A female reporter who is identified by text as Suzie Chiang cuts in
mid-sentence as she says "... been informed by sources so far unknown.
Here's what has been observed."

A window fills about two thirds, showing a tribune in a poor
neighbourhood. The half the gathered people are metahuman. The tribune
shows the People's League logo, and the speaker is well known as
Abraham Smith. Slightly behind and to the right of him his large
bodyguard can be seen, screening the area. Smith seems to have made a
statement of some sort, as about half the audience (the "norm" part,
you notice) is cheering loudly. Just as he cuts the applause with a
cuting gesture with his right hand, the clib turns to slow motion. A
red dot appears at the bodyguard's forehead, nearly simultanously grey
and red matter sprays, mostly out of view, from the back of his head.
As the bodyguard spins and starts falling, Abraham turning in surprise
and with a shocked expression on his face, he is hit by a shot in his
left temple that leaves through his right jaw. The hit furthers
Abraham's spin as a second bullet hole appears at his nape and drops
him instantly.

The window zooms out of view, and Suzie continues, "The ambulance
arrived after about three minutes later, a record time for Boise. But
as we know by now, this was no coincidence, as the ambulance never made
it to Community General. Here's what we have on material on the
ambulance:" Another window zooms into view.

A large paramedic, facemask up, just hauls a strecher into a SRT Ground
Unit and closes the doors. The display freezes, and zooms to the
driver's face. All you can make out are the ice blue eyes, the rest is
hidden by the mask.

"As this is all we have, and Lone Star could just find a deserted
Remington 950 hunting rifle without any finger prints. A Lone Star
representative claimed the serial number had been removed by a
professional, and so far no clues point to the orign of the weapon,
although we have been informed this might be the same weapon a sniper
attack three days ago that cost the lives of five pedestrians, although
ballistic experts are still investigating.

"Of course we followed the trial against Mr Smith by SIGA, and did
question a SIGA representative about the death threat one of their
field officers is, rather was accussed to have expressed. But we were
assured, and evidence was offered, the officer in question was not even
in town at the time of Abraham's death.

"this matches the currently observed raise in random violence in this,
our town. A ..." The newsfeed ends in mid-sentence.

Yeah, sure, I believe your witnesses, Lynch. Who are they? Only SIGA,
or FBI as well? We all know you and yours infiltrated government, and
until court could reveal this connection, you decided to geek Abraham.
But you will NEVER manage to suppress free people, even if you manage

To be honest, so far I was quite unsure if Abraham was right, but after
that assassination, with the corpse so luckily missing, I suppose he
was right: You and yours planted the bombs yourself, and executed
Thunda to shut him up terminally. ]<<<<<

You want me to believe that you are right then offer me real proof that

Thunda managed to out do the Wanderer for sheer amount of violence against
