place,
he he. Hey Raven babe, I love you too <digitized kiss noise>. Harlequin,
you wanna know what IBA stands for ? Well sorry I can't let out the trade
secrets ya know :) ]<<<<<
-I.B.A. (**:**:**/**.**.**)

>>>>>[ Harlequin it stands for Incredibly Bad Attitude, we thought it a
reasonable description of IBA's manner. It's not some secret like he's trying
to make out, he just doesn't want everyone to know what he's really called. As
for you IBA you seem to be going back on the promise that you gave myself,
Punisher and Raven after you stole my beer. Maybe it's time to have a word
with Punisher again. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Hey, I'm ready any time PH. Oh by the way did you see the news ?
Looks
like our Mr Johnson has been found. Face up in the Sound this morning. His
name was Bernard Coxon, killed by a single bullet shot to the head. It also
appears that his body seems to have been drained in some way. I'm not sure
how. IBA if you've finished insulting the fairer sex why don't you make your
self useful and see what Lone Star say about him in their report. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Ok, I'm on my way. Shouldn't take me more than a few minutes to get
the data. ]<<<<<<
-I.B.A. (**:**:**/**.**.**)

>>>>>[ Back to biz now the nerd is out of the way. Wiz: Many thanks for
the
data it came in most useful. Megan has come round again now, she seems to
think that one of the two remaining execs is involved somehow and is trying
to sell the data to Fuchi. Thats Julia Kerley and Kelvin Chung, they each
own 25% of the company. Bernard Coxon's share we think will go his wife or
eldest son, though till we find out what's in the will we can't be certain.

Megan is getting very worried about her father, not that we can blame her.
Anyway she's offered to pay us to grab him back from England, if he's still
there, PH are you still in contact with Chipper ? If he could do some of the
ground work for us that would be most grateful. There was another raid last
night, and get this, the backup was a fraggin dragon. We don't know which one,
in the heat of the battle no one thought to do a scan. Well what with the
heat we're pullin down on us this must be valuable data... What gets me though
is that these mercs just keep coming back. I could have sworn I've dropped
1 or 2 at least 3 times each now.

So the plan is to hightail it to England. Just in case the corps do have a
line in here don't worry we won't be so stupid as to say when, where and how
we'll leave. ]<<<<<
-Punisher (17:34:33/8.27.54)

>>>>>[ Punisher is right, this is getting wierd. Normally we can stop a
merc
group if we've prepared correctly, but thesze guys just keep coming back for
more. Anyhow, I'll contact Chipper and see what he can dig up for us.

>>>>>[ Monsieur WHAT, I do not appreciate being called a frog, maybe your
English manners are in need of some culturing. However as a favour to
Powerhouse I will give you the following address. The following is a grid
reference (497638), if you key it into an Ordenance Pour Paris chip then you
will be shown the location of a friend of mine. If you mention that you know
Dominique Al'Vere from the Hotel Magick then he will arrange accomodation for
you and your compatriots. Also if you 'ave the cash and you don't insult him
then you may find him beneficary in other ways. ]<<<<<
-Spice (A frog indeed !)

>>>>>[ Well I got the data, seems the only mark on him was the bullet wound
but an atral check said that the guy was being attacked by some form of magic
at the same time that the bullet struck. ]<<<<<
-I.B.A. (**:**:**/**.**.**)

>>>>>[ Hmm intresting, grab your gear and meet at **IBA.KK67**, we've got
some
traveling to do. ]<<<<<
-Punisher (17:51:31/8.27.54)

>>>>>[ I'll have to bear with you on this one Punisher, I'm supposed to
meet
my group this afternoon. They've reached a decision at long last about what
to do over Lowe. Oh and I nearly forgot, I've got a date this weekend with
Cerise. ]<<<<<
-The Powerhouse (17:53:05/27.8.54)

>>>>>[ Bugger your love life. Go to the group and meet us right after the
meeting concludes. We dobn't have any time to waste. ]<<<<<
