>>>>>[I've just broken the news to the rest of the bunch about Pegasus. Not
all of them were very pleased, to say the least. They'll calm down, I hope.

Anyway, Canis has requested a copy of the Vid footage from the safehouse. A
few compatriots died in that fight, I think you'll understand.

If you could send a copy to Canis, he'd be eternally, well, maybe not
eternally, but greatfull for a long time, anyway....]<<<<<

>>>>>[Yeh, I'm sorry about Pegasus. You'll probably notice that he slid
into
the shadows after that fiasco. That's because I beat the shit out of him for
what he did. He thought he was doing me a favour.

Here's the Vid Clip

I'll send it to Canis as well, or do you want to? You'll probably want to
send it to everyone....

Dashira's being irritating again. I caught him with the Deck. Posting to me,
of all people.

Some people have no common sense. I sent him a reply from the other room and
then pounced as he was reading it, and confiscated it.

He won't be making anymore posts until you get here, and we can get a decker
to modify his deck so's it's not as tracable....]<<<<<

Canis requested it, but I thought some other people might have wanted it as
well.

*** WARNING ***
If you'd rather forget the safehous, do not watch this clip. I've set it for
manual activation, so it won't start up automatically.....

>>>>>[Well, thankyou Inferno, it made for a nice movie to watch over my
coffee. Now just what in the blue blazes is going on? No on second
thoughts don't bother answering, I can guess. I don't suppose there's
any chance that a full News trid team were following as well? Or maybe
the UCAS Elint/Milint, or possibly Hollywood Simsense Entertainments?
Shit....


I really don't know how the hell you people got out of that one in one
piece, I _really_ don't. The only thing I am pleased about is that you
all finally got enough incentive to bloody well move at last. So how
long before you hit Seattle? And are you all going to play footsie with
each other there as well?


It would be appreciated if you people could find out what is known about
the Chess Men, who is funding them, how come they've managed to stay
hidden like they have, how far their influence stretches, what's inside
the Zone that's important to them, how they got out of the zone, how
they've managed to take over a military section like this and stay
undetected, get that damn optical chip of Bulls cracked, and posted to
Shadowland. It would also be nice if you could organise some sort of
coherent resistance and plan of attack against these damn creatures,
from what I've understood so far, Odin is getting the same treatment
Thor received. Canis is out there somewhere fighting these creatures,
and it would be nice if he and his team survived in one piece and we
don't repeat the fiasco that ended in Thor's destruction.


Also we need to find out who the Gemeos Assembly are, and what their
involvement is with the bugs, and why.


You should shortly be contacted by a couple of people, Bunny, maybe a
few others, my little "I'm a bug nut" posts seem to have stirred up some
interesting responses, the loons all talked back to me, the more
organised people went private. We are not alone, and at some point you
may wish to have the support of other teams in our battle against these
creatures. I will leave that decision up to you all. As of today I am
no longer a part of this team. The original purpose of getting Bulls
family to safety has been achieved, near as damn it, and I have an
agenda to follow and will be unavailable for consultation for an unknown
amount of time. Gates will be keeping an ear to the ground for me, but
I'm not sure if we'll be able to receive everything you people put out.


+++++Include RedShift.cpt


That is the encryption code for RedShift. If you need to talk to us
directly use that code it will be picked up and relayed to us
automatically, anything from IF-1 has a 50-50 chance of reaching us.


Now if all of you people would like to get a little motivated again, and
try to find out what you can about these nasty little creatures, I feel
it would be kind of useful. Also, we all now have the ability to strike
back at them. With Bulls family in safety, there is no longer a reason
to run. Those with other commitments and families may wish to ghost at
this point, because anything you do from now on, will mark you as a
target and may result in a terminal incident.


Have fun, work hard, and let's put an end to this Chess Men
organisation. Hit 'em hard, and hit 'em where it hurts.]<<<<<
