[IC] Crash and Burn: Chapter I
Chapter I: Welcome to real life Omae
What makes you an adult? is it the ability to stand up by yourself? is it the ability to fight your own battles? the will to keep fighting? Its 2075 and its no to the first two and a yes to the last one... I can't stand on my own, i can't even crap withouth medical help... Im a vegetable, of course i can move my head and of course i can speak, but between been Quadra and the Cancer i have almost gave up on life, then i meet the trix, at first it was scary, then it became my only safe shore on a life of total dependance. Started studying and got pretty high scores, made my life around the trix, and earned enough to keep myself and even to start saving for the future, thing is i ain't able to let my past go, there has to be a meaning, there has to be a reason for all this suffering, so i meet the VU 93, and i meet a bunch of cool people, dangerous too but im used to feel powerless around them, and i get this awsome advice by some old timer by the nickname of The Wyrm Ouroboros, search for the truth... And im scared out of my mind! How in whatever deity you belive can i start searching for the truth with my disability?! its imposible... And then i go angry at myself, for some time i did wanted to die, i even asked several doctors to euthanize me, if im going to be afraid of dying, then im nothing more than a coward, i got a deck and well i decided it was mighty time to start searching for the truth, prepared my bank account and became ready to hire the shadows... With my will trembling i posted this message on the VU 93:
>>>>>[So... Everyone here knows by now that i aint a runner... And by the skills of most of you my SIN'er Past should be a well know issue by now, but hey not everyone is cut out to be a runner, specially me. Thing is i have some evidence that need to be investigated and i have some serious nuyen savings on my side, most of you can check it, the thing is im a cripple and i do need someone to do some errands for me, to shake up some heads... And maybe to deal with some A-holes of the Lone Star, this should be a milk run, and legal (unless you make people speak with a sledge hammer) the pay can be discussed and if you wish to discuss it then Log to the Seattle Max Mayhem Node, i will be administrating it this friday the whole day, ill encrypt a passcode for a VIP room i will set up specially for this ocasion. Hope to see someone there.]<<<<<
