>>>>>[When you ask for information you dont mess around with the mundane`
stuff, do you? First it was that nut case with the spirit and the motorcycle
then it was this wacko.

Ok, this is what I got:

This freak is definitely something to be very wary of. From the mo you
gave me on the phone I would have to so this is your man. Big religion
freak or something like that. Leave crosses on the body or sometimes carves
them into the victim after death. Carries weapons where the hilt is a cross
of some sort. Has been linked to a couple of deaths where the victim was...
get this...crucified. Some of them were just plain mutilated.

We've been trying to get ahold of this perp for a while but we cannot track
him. Its so hard to track someone who doesnt have a SIN. Go Fig.
But anyway -- We have some speculation on his internals.
My suggestion...if this fragger is after you, leave the city. Period. Take
your wife and kids and leave.]<<<<<

>>>>>[No, not yet. I think I might need to handle this myself. Besides, I
have a friend who is a little leary of security personel, if you know
what I mean. Hey, by the way -- I was 'recently accosted by a large group
of youths on motorcycles and they beat me up and took away my preditor II
side arm'. If that happens to cross your desk, could you make sure it doesnt
cross anyone else's? Its embarassing enough to tell people I got mugged, worse
to tell them that I had a gun and didnt use it...only to have it
stolen.]<<<<<

>>>>>[I tell you time and time again, dont bullshit a bullshitter. Let me
see if I got this straight:

You have this friend, a troll, goes by the name of Doomsday, who was recently
taking care of some kids (and also recently sent put them on a plane) down
in the lower sections of the tunnels. You went to see him and got into an
altercation with people sent by Zealot (You probably know him as Wanderer).
One of your security officers and yourself "defended yourselves as best you
can with the tools available to you" leaving no survivors. One child died
Susan Sanders, aged 6, in the attack, no fault of yours. Doomsday was
surprisingly missing from all this action (funny, huh?). The other night,
while sending the children off, he was attacked by Ze..Wanderer but
made a hasty retreat. If I am not mistaken, the weapon thrown to the
ground looked amazingly like a Preditor II. Wouldnt happen to have been
yours, would it?]<<<<<

>>>>>[Im paid to know things, m'boy. Dont even think that the footage
posted on that BBS all those shadow runner wannabe's didnt find its way
to my desk. For a measly 1,000 nY I had it, letter boxed, and subtitled
about 3 hours after you did.

As to the gun -- I guessed and you rolled over on that tidbit yourself.
I knew you and Doomsday was tight. I figger'd you gave him the gun when
you met up with him at the bar. I also assume you already know that
transfering a weapon to a SINLESS person with no permit is illegal. But
thats neither here nor there.

As I see it: You owe me 3 peices of information, and one dinner. I'd like
to collect on dinner saturday night after my shift is over.]<<<<<

You know if I find one of this damned lone star drones over my place I AM going
to spell it down, right? And no dinner for you. I have other things to
worry about this weekend.]<<<<<
