>>>>>[A little history lesson, it started about 12 years ago when I, as
a snot nose little punk, joined the UCAS CID (Criminal Investigation
Department). After my first 3 years I found out what it meant to be
down and out, I was seriously wounded more than once. In my 6th year I
was assigned to a new subdepartment of CID, who's base objective was to
find currupt political figures, and investigate corporate ties to
political groups. This went quite well for about a 6 monthes until we
got into a MAJOR situation envolving a "generic" corporation's security
team, two of my men were killed in the ambush, we nailed four of them,
but we could not identify there "colors". Someone set us up, but that
20/20 hind sight, at the time we thought we were getting close and we
were just unlucky (DAMN it sucks when someone else is pulling your
chains). Anyway, our investigation lead to some real intresting
political changes, one Senator retired after our group discovered that
he was supported by not only Humanis but also by MOM (Mothers of
Metahumans), a month later he was found dead in his residents, the
local police corp. called it suicide (right, I would love to try to kill
myself, by emasculation), my guess is that Humanis got to him (that is
their favorite way to kill men, who are labled traders). Well after the
2148 elections there was a large turn over in the government, and by
some wierd way, the number one person on our investigation list was
placed in change of law enforcement budget. As the first year went by
our arrest record increased, however our budget decreased, six months
into the first year out budget was cut in half. We were looking into
another well known corporation, mostly their finanical transaction when
the plug was pulled. We were very distressed, but there was nothing we
could do, the department grew up to this point to 22 agents, most were
reassigned to CID, 10 of us decided that we sould end our contracts.
After a month none of us could get a job, not even as a security guard,
then it happen...first it seemed like an accident one of our former
co-worker was killed in a car accident (now looking back at it, it looks
like this drek faced SOB has placed a contract on us through his Yakuza
connecton). Later that same year two more old friends were killed in
Europe, well working for a group out of Germany. We got back together
and decided that as individuals we were as good as dead, we had very
little money so, we decided to have our decker clear our records with
UCAS and CID and set us up as unknowns. Now we don't do anthing by the
book, however we do have morals (that is why I was offended by the
remarks about being called a thief, though at time we do steal, we do it
with a purpose *smile*). From how it sounds, there are a few of you I
and my team would like to work with in the future.
