>>>>>[Well, I'm back. Trip to New Delhi proved to be a bit exciting.
Brandywine, sorry about leaving so suddenly. It was a matter of life and
death, in particular my life or death. I hope Fuzzy wasn't to much of a
problem. I think Bliss spoiled him to much.]<<<<<

>>>>>[A bit exciting? Man you've got a problem with understatement. I'll
tell
you what happened.

You all remember Lightspeed? Well we set up some constructs that would set
off some traces when he passed by them. I'll admit he's good, but no one can
dodge that many tracers. After a few days with these things going we finally
find him working out of New Delhi. It was nice getting out of Seattle but I
could've picked some nicer spots to hit. After another day of running those
traces we find him holed up in this pit. Ok, it was a nice flat considering
it's in New Delhi.

Red had this great plan set up after looking around the alleys. We got this
little booth set up on the corner so it looked like I was trying to sell nick
nacks and souvenirs, not like I'd want to buy anything to remind me of the
place. So we were watching his flat checking out his routine. He always has 2
meat heads with him wherever he goes.

So we decide to make the hit after T-day late at night. Bliss was up on a
roof and was watching for anything magical and me I was down in the booth
with my favorite Remington set up under the counter. I don't know where Red
went, he just said be ready to take out the meat he doesn't take care of.
Well out they come like clockwork with the runt in the middle. So I line my
sights up with the big ugly one and wait. I looked down the street and I see
a guy in a big trenchcoat that looked pretty familiar walking towards my
target. Next thing I see is a flash where the streetlights reflected off his
pig sticker and my targets head falls off. The other bodyguard and the runt
pull out guns. In the same motion I see Red swing his arm back and smack the
runt with the but of his sword. I'm trying to get a fix on the other muscle
when out come about 6 more guys packing AK's. I took a quick shot nicking the
muscle in the shoulder then picked up my HK and ran in letting loose
wondering what Bliss was up to. When I get about half way there Red already
hacked up the bodyguard and for some reason the new fraggers were tripping
over eachother running into the wall looking like a mess. When I finally get
there Red's ripping them up. Just before we're done a nice limo nearly runs
us down and stops where Lightspeed was lying. A couple pairs of hands reach
out and pull him then it takes off before we have a chance to do anything.

After it's gone Red starts getting on my case for not doing my job. Here we
are in the middle of the city with 8 bodies lying around and he's busting my
balls. Hell, he's been under some major stress so I'm just going to let it
slide.

So now we're back. Who can say they had a better T-day?]<<<<<
