OG ENTRY 15679, PERSONAL, C-TIME: 12/9/45, LOCATION: DOWNTOWN.

L IT WAS JUST ONE OF THOSE NIGHTS. NO GOOD INCOMING BOUNTY REPORTS, AND THE

VENTS IN THE JET ALL CLOGGED WITH SMOG. THE FLICKERING OF THE NAVIGATION DISPLAY SHOWS NOTHING OF INTEREST BREAKS THE MONOTONOUS SILENCE! OCCASIONALLY A NEWS FLASH POPS UP ON THE COM- MUNICATOR, WITH REPORTS OF MORE POLICE VIOLENCE. THE CITY IS NOT AS IT USED TO BE.

OWN HALL OFFICIALS BLAME IT ON THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT. MAYBE THEY SHOULD

START SEARCHING THEIR OWN BACK YARD FIRST. WEEDING OUT THE BAD SEEDS SPAWNED BY HYPOCRISY AND CORRUPTION. BUT THAT'S JUST MY HUMBLE OPINION, AND WHAT DO I KNOW.

, AND ONLY THE RADIO, WITH ITS MODERN EL-TRECK TONES

OG ENTRY 15680, INCOMING, C-TIME: 12/9/57, LOCATION: DOWNTOWN

L ATTENTION ALL B-HUNTERS: A SERIOUS BREACH IN SECURITY HAS RESULTED IN THE ESCAPE OF THE CRIMINAL GENE BROCK. THE REWARD FOR HUNTING THIS SCUMBAG DOWN IS 20.000. MSG: OUT

OG ENTRY 15681, PERSONAL, C-TIME: 12/10/08, LOCATION: DOWNTOWN.

L IT SEEMS LIKE THE EVENING WILL SEE SOME ACTION AFTERALL. LETS SEE IF THIS HOVERJET

CAN PLAY THE OLD GAME ONCE MORE DARN IF I AM GOING TO LET OLD TY SLIMSWING GET AWAY WITH THIS ONE.

. THIS BOUNTY WOULD REALLY HIT A DRY SPOT, AND

THAT POLICE WOMAN HAS REALLY FOUND A GREAT WAY TO SAVE MONEY. LETTING THE B-

UNTERS FIGHT EACH OTHER FOR THE KILL. SOMETIMES YOU COULD THINK THAT SHE HAD

A HIDDEN AGENDA, BUT WHO KNOWS. AT LEAST SHE ALWAYS PAYS. THAT'S MORE THAN WHAT CAN BE SAID FOR LUCIANO. HIS GANGSTER METHODS HAVE NEVER BEEN ENTIRELY

, AND HIS BOUNTIES NEVER ENTIRELY RELIABLE. BUT THEN HE SEEMS TO BE GAINING

SAFE MORE AND MORE POWER IN THE CITY. WHOEVER WINS WILL BE A DANGEROUS ENEMY. BUT THE WAR IS NOT OVER YET, NO ONE CAN TELL THE OUTCOME.

WE WILL KNOW WHEN THE FAT LADY SINGS!
