TITLE:A DARK VISION OF THE FUTURE - CHAPTER 3 - By TRID. K. and MOP
PALETTE:0333 0889 0b9a 06ac
CHAPTER III
SURE I BELIEVE IN PEACE - PEACE THROUGH SUPERIOR FIRE POWER!
- Hard Eyes MERC 20th Century
Slicer spun round, as the entrance door sprang open. His eyes opened wildly as
he stared bewildered at the intruders. Two badges depicting ARES logos were
blazing on their Jackets and they held Guns in their hands. The Mutants cut
wide around the LADY, as SHE stood as if locked in trance, wondering for a
moment if ARES ARMS Ltd. had any need for Mutants. But this was not the time
to think about that. Slicer swung his Ingram, sending a hail of automatic fire
at the Mercs. With a grim smile on his face he fired six bursts and watched the
mutant parts splatter all over the floor. Disrupted by the fire fight, the LADY
came back in action. A tall and pretty woman, with long fair hair. She wore a
Japanese styled black suite, and overall she looked very hot.
Slicer was about to collect the empty cartridge cases. Fascinated about
Slicer's cat like motions, SHE stood next to a Steel door. The small black case
in her hands started to bleep softly.

END OF TRANSMISSION.
Staring down at her SatDat, she seemed as if she didn't care any more about
Slicer's fast motions. SISTER ONE... these two words had attracted her
interest. S1 was very far away from FORTRESS, and as far as she knew, ARES had
never recruited any Mutants. At least, not for any expensive jobs.
"LADY, they have got Cyberware. Fucking Hot stuff. Wonder where they got it?"
Slicer was examining the mutilated parts closely, maybe a bit too close. The
Eyes from one Mutant still glowed blue, a sure indication that they were cyber
enhanced. Taking out his knife he begun to curve around one eye. As soon as
the knife touched the mutilated head, it exploded.
Since Sven had settled at Mocks Clinic, very much things had happened. Joy was
very busy, as Mock had done his best to recover Sven's Cyberware memory. The
younger Mutant was watching TERMINATOR 52+, an action Movie which was very
popular in the last 50 years. Mock was out to get them the passes to another
Station, Joy was scanning and recovering the Data from Sven's Memory, and Sven?
Was his task only to sit and wait? But, what else could he do? Even if Mock
had already installed a new CyberDeck in his Headware, he still had to wait for
FastJoy, to get all his files back into his CyberDeck!
Meanwhile, two guys, hidden under thick dark robes, made their way to MOCK's
Clinic. They had some problems in finding the right way, but once they entered
the clinic, they were let into the entrance area. Sven, who was the only one
standing in this area slowly approached the two guys. One of the guys seemed as
if he had some trouble to walk properly, because he was leaning against his
friend. The two guys leaned down very slowly, and one of them uncovered the
other one's hood. Sven looked down. It was a boy. He seemed just a little
younger than Sven. The Boy had a terrible wound in his face, running across his
eyes. His EYES? Maybe there had been Eyes sometime, but not now! The other
guy tried to stop the boy's bleeding with his MedKit V3, but the open wound
seemed as if it was crying for a Doctor. The Boy must surely be in deep coma,
Sven thought, because otherwise he would be moaning with all that pain. Then
another thought sprang to Sven's mind; what if the boy was already dead? Then
he looked at the large bag they had brought along. "What's that large bag
for?", asked Sven.
The hooded guy, promptly stood up and took off his robe. To Sven's amazement,
the guy turned out to be a beautiful long haired Girl. She looked at him, and
with the softest voice Sven had ever heard, she replied "That's booty... bloody
earned booty! It's more worth than hard Ca$h, my friend!" The girl stopped, as
if she was thinking for a moment, and then looked down at the boy, who was still
lying besides her. "Slicer needs your help badly... Are you Mock?" she asked,
again with her soft voice. Her look was so sweet that Sven was almost day
dreaming. But not for long...
"Pick up your hands, both of you! Or you are Dead meat!", a hard, deep voice
shouted out. The speaker, a tall and dark looking guy, was standing at the
door. Sven stopped glancing at the girl, and slowly looked towards the guy. He
surely didn't look very friendly, so he must have had to break in. He must be
some kind of tough war machine to beat up the guards so easily and without any
trouble! Even Sven, who was equipped with some fine acoustic Cyberware, didn't
hear him come in! The girl dared to turn around towards their aggressor, but
his right Cybereye glowed red as he swung his Shotgun into fire position.
Fastjoy was working in the secret area, where the mainframe was installed. Mock
had done a very good job on his own Net. A Real fast computer and a large data
base... that's all a decker needs! But Fastjoy knew better, because if not,
how could he be the elite and popular Decker he is today! Also he had to look
for his security too, because there were enough smart fuckers after him, always
trying to nail him down! So no wonder that Joy ran a Security & Watch code
permanently. Mocks Net had VidCams and other electronical Detectors installed
in and around the clinic, so at least this always kept out the occasional
inexperienced intruder. But what would happen if your whole security system was
out of action and all the alarm programmes had been turned off?
