War? We sent you after ... oh frag. If you cut your loses and don't
go after them, I don't see them giving payback. If you do continue
to go after them, I would expect they will try to turn the tables
completely on you. It appears you had better information on them
then I ever did, so blaming me for not giving you enough info is
laughable. You know going in that we didn't have much information on
them. Hence the price. You know going in that there were already
bounties in place that would make them targets from other bounty
hunters. Additional people showing up on the scene were not my
fault.

You were the big bad assassin. The ball was in your court to do your
homework enough to nail the Wanderer and DragonEyes. Apparently, you
didn't do your homework thoroughly enough. I'll end up having to
deal with the results, but it wasn't my fault you were surprised by
your prey.

As far as being "fucked", I don't think so. Yes, the terrorists are
not dead. You cannot track me down and pay me back for your
frustration. How are they going to do it? First they would have to
get my name from you. Then they would have to figure out how to
track down a dead alias, only used to contact you. Doesn't seem to
easy in my book. Maybe not impossible, but not something someone
will do lightly. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ It appears Madame, that we vastly underestimated what you were
up against. (The person who did the underestimating has paid the
ultimate price.) I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused
and the significant waste of your time. Due to the nature of the
underestimation, I am hereby authorized to terminate your contract
and not hold you to the terms therein. If you happen to succeed in
killing the original targets, I will gladly pay the contract price,
but I expect you will probably just drop the contract and rightly so.
If I have better targets in the future, I will look you up again, as
you had style that I liked. Happy hunting! ]<<<<<
