>>>>>[ Heehee ha ha ! That was certainly one in the eye for Jules and
those
Aztecs, should serve a clear warning to that big drekker that we're not to
be messed with. Well I hear you all ask what happened, what happened ?

Ack, lemme see, just where do I start ? Maybe it should be the water elementals
that Princess and Cerise summoned and virtually flooded the Aztec vessel. Or
maybe it should be when Fenris and Speed arrived 'surfing' in Speed's boat on
the back of one huge mother of a sea spirit and tossed those boats of Jules'
high and dry. Or maybe it's the look of suprise on one of them dammed houngan's
faces when Regent manifested right next to the mother and knocked him over board
with his horn. Ha ha, we had fun, we had fun there was hardly anything for
meself and Punisher to shoot. Well, there was still the Aztec guards on board
the Fuengirola but, ah shucks, target practice, target practice that's all it
was. Ahh we had some fun, even that old grouch Golem started smiling, first
time I've seen him smile since he's been here.

But enough frivolity, we're still no closer in tracking Powerhouse. We checked
out some of those shielded locations that Fenris found but for a variety of
reasons had to abandon them. You know the stuff, wards found in police
stations, govt wards, mega corp wards, we can't check all of those, but by hell
I'm trying, the matrix is a highway and I've one mother of deck to cruise down
it. I did take another peek into Jules' computer, seems he's upped his security
since I was there last time, I'd benchmark it at Red-5 now, with major nodes
at Red-6, the odd bit of black ic bumming round here n there, ya know how it
goes, but Jules babe has got nothing like the IBA-super-sleaze, hell I based it
on myself an icon just starts to chat up the ic making the odd suggestion here
n there, if ya get me drift, eventually the ic gets so embaressed that it looks
away while I'll stroll past with ma cloak of sleaze wrapped around.

So what did I get, Jules is pissed as expected, but what the hell. I listened
in on a camera link to the mother while he was blasting his men, one really
ugly mother of an ork really got it while one tall smart looking guy with a
staff (must have been the guy you saw Punisher) just stood there looking real
smug. Well Jules assigned all control of the next mission to the tall guy, he
looked kinda mean as well while I think about it, the ugly ork he was threatened
with 'replacement' well I don't think ya have to be real bright to work that
one out eh ?

So did the mission work, well I dunno if they got the message to lay off us
but then that was not really the message we were trying to give them eh ? We
just wanted them to concentrate on something else instead of us, even though
the something else is us, ha I love life ! So, to answer the question, yes
I believe it did work, Jules is pissed off, majorly pissed off, he blames the
sabotage of his arms drop with the Aztecs as being part of this Carlos chummers
work, from what I heard he's sending a hitman over there to wipe out one of
this Carlos chummer's main assets. Things are gonna liven up :) ]<<<<<
