L
ife is a blessing, but death can be
a friend - there's always a price
to pay. In nature there's neither
good or bad, right or wrong - there are
consequences.
N
ot so long ago, a few able
scientists were willing to
assume the cape of the creator,
delve deep into this creational abyss to
find the secrets, to stretch the known
boundaries, to create life - they could not foresee
the consequences…

Who Are We, and Where Do We Come From?
R
eligion offers very simple answers - science offers new
possibilities. Did we indeed rise out of that primeval
goo by coincidence, or are we the result of divine
intervention? If you take the religious stand, Man was made
at the end of a week's hard work, and God was pretty tired.
I
mperfections, flaws, weaknesses,
vulnerability - that's the price we pay
for being the last item on the assembly
line. No matter which version is right - if you
can improve on this prototype, that not even
evolution has perfected yet, by means of
science - create a sharper original instead
of this sloppy copy, this mortal coil - why not?
A
sk yourself - what's worth living for? A lot.
What's worth dying for, then? Not a lot. So
if you had the choice, it wouldn't be that
hard, would it? It would be worth killing for,
wouldn't it?

Hong Kong, China
Terminating the Red Dragon triad
leader Lee Hong will be nearly
impossible. Hong resides inside an
enormous complex, complete with bar,
restaurant, shop, brothel, helipad, park
and possibly even more. A small army
guards the place...and the Hong Kong police are on his payroll.
The only way to get to him would be by instigating a war between the two
large triads Red Dragon and Blue Lotus and then somehow contriving
to remove Hong’s police protection.
Killing Lee Hong will take a detailed plan and a lot of preparation.
Valle del Cauca, Columbia
Somewhere in the Colombian rainforest a drug lord is preparing his
next shipment of mortal merchandise. His camp is hidden away in the
jungle and the only road leading in is extremely well guarded. It's
actually impossible to gain access to the camp by road. But there must
be another way in to the camp.
Our sparse information about the camp has led us to conclude that it
holds a laboratory, a mansion and an airstrip.

Rotterdam, The Netherlands
At the harbor of Rotterdam the Russian gunrunner Arkadij Jegorov, aka
"Boris," is planning his next deal. He's got a secret blueprint of a nuclear
weapon and a couple of nuclear warheads. He's about to sell the blueprint
to an unscrupulous dictator.
The deal is supposed to go through within the next weeks. In the meantime
the gunrunner is dealing arms to the local gangs. The Agency knows that
the police have been trying to find him but he is well hidden in the huge
harbor area. To search all ships would be impossible. We're thinking
of another way of tracing the ship.
Budapest, Hungary
At the Thermal Bath Hotel in Budapest,
a peace summit is being held. All the
leaders of the great nations are
gathered for the event. The old hotel is
swarming with security and press.
The Austrian Terrorist Franz Fuchs is planning a hideous attack on the
peace summit. He has developed a very dangerous chemical mixture
and constructed a bomb with it. Somehow he has managed to get the bomb
through security. The bomb is now at the hotel. If we alarm the authorities
we will give away our source for this information.
The bomb could easily destroy the large building and leave the world
without leadership.
