Write up by Eclipse

I had just got my new pad fully equiped with the latest Panasonic Ultra 9.2 Full immersion TRI-D set up, Lava lamps were installed, mood lighting, the place was finally looking cool. All those neon lights makes a place sooo cool. I moved recently due to some out of town assassin getting sliced in half all over my shag pile carpet. When people like that turn up at your house it's best to move a long way away. My phone rings. Its Gwai Loh, apparently there is a job. He briefly tells me that he has been hired to steal an artifact that is being auctioned. Apparently this artifact is going to be bought by the Russians and some Irish peeps want it. He has some connections with the Russians so he is going off to pretend to help them and work the inside angle. I have to go and meet the Fixer, a guy called Connor. We meet up over a drink and he asks me to dinner, I ask about the job. He says that there may be some Germans involved aswell. This is what happens when you let other people negotiate deals without you! We come up with a rough and I mean rough plan. Gwai Loh stays with the Russians, we follow at a safe distance, wait for the Germans and then in the middle of a fire fight we swoop in and take the statue.


Gwai Loh gives me another call and says something about not being able to make our date. I didn't think we were going out, then he lunches into some wierd random tale about bad drinks and two chasers. Maybe he isn't all brawn and no brains. I get the message. The package will be carried in a convoy with 2 backup cars. One van and one car.


The next day we go to the auction. I go in and start to mingle, looking for the Germans and Russians. They aren't hard to spot I get chatting to one of the workers there, he seems like a nice enough person. He seems to know everyone and what they are going to bid on. The bidding starts and as we suspected the Russians win the Artifact. The plan is going smoothley, we are following at a safe distance then *BOOM* somewhere in front of us. The sounds of heavy gunfire. It would seem that the Germans have made their move and we can't get there because we are stuck in traffic! We get there to find it's all over and quickly leave before the cops get there.


Gwai Loh then calls me again and says that the initial team betrayed them, tried to kill them and stole the Artifact. I ask about them and he tells me I need to speak to T-Bone, he hired them. T-Bone hired another team for a job and didn't tell us! He gives me the information I need and I pass it on to my contacts to check out. I then have a chat with Connor about our next move. If the Russians group has betrayed them then maybe they have contacted the Germans.
