This is... troubling. The recordings are really there.. I'm... going to listen to this tomorrow. I don't think I'm ready for this just yet. As... idiotic as it may sound, this is the ultimate confirmation that...
...Well, you know what I mean. Thanks. For doing this.

Rebecca. Uh, if you have a minute, I have something to tell you.
I'm... having some aug complications, and Hans hasn't checked in with me in a while. And if I don't do this, I will very much die to some uncontrolled microchip potentially unleashing a mercury leak in my body and kill me.
I might need to... go back to Raven, for a bit.
This is wrong. So wrong.
Wh-what the hell am I doing? This is a terrible idea.
[Alex's voice could still be heard in the background as the message began.]
Heya Kri-
Alex, please not fucking now, I just need a few minutes.
Understood. Be in the hold when you're done.
Bloody hell, that's really is a shite fuckin' idea, Doll. Fact you're even saying as much tells me everything.
You don't need me to remind you that cunt shot at me for just asking questions when her narrative stopped making sense. Nevermind the amount of shite she pulled with Levan.
[A pleading tone crept into Rebecca's voice as she continued on. Almost as if she was getting desperate.]
Look, Kris, just give me half a day and I can be where ever you need me and we can figute out a better option.
It'll really suck to lose you like that right after everything we went through just getting away from that damn mess. Look I can talk to Vicks for a referral with someone she trusts or-, maybe Heisenberg or something like that.
Please just this once wait for me so I can help. Because you already know you can't go back, not without sacrificing every bit of freedom that we fought for and just-
Fuck, just give me a location and I'll be there in a days time and we'll figure this out, alright?
[There is a pause as the recording starts, Rebecca looks hesistant, each time she goes to open her mouth to speak she seemed to stop herself. Mixed emotions or carefully choosing her words perhaps? When she finally did manage to speak, her tone was flat and controlled, no trace of anger or rage, yet definitely not the softness that she usually let out in the past.]
Heard about your current predicament, from more than just Aspen.
And I may have a solution for you that doesn't involve you dying and it might just also give you the life you were trying to pull together back.
So, unless you already have some clever solution or way out of this current mess, pick a spot you can make it to undetected, and let me know where and when. I'll fill you in on all the details.
And yes, I'm aware how much this sounds like a trap, but this is the type of matter where saying anything more over the net is a bad idea.
Here's a copy of my chainlink code for the Homerunner. Do not share this, or the unfortunate sod who gets it will be stuck with a stinking old Rhino from fifty years ago that rattles for ten seconds straight every time there is an asteroid impact. Seriously, flying that thing always drives me insane - there's a HUGE hole on the pilot's seat, with like, little yellow sponge bits flaking out. Just put a cushion or a sweater under your butt, and you should be fine.
Anyways, look for it at the Kessler Starport in the Tenerife region. Access garage W2B-A. Slap this code on a skeleton keycard and you should be good to go.

Yeah, you weren't lying, flying that thing through the Alegranza was a worse time than rolling down the bombed out streets of Leeds in an armoured vic.
But otherwise, everything went all smooth, the Runner is waiting for you on Section C of the Gate, Hanger 7-A. Dunno' what you were doing with that many crates of Liberty Ale in the hold but I had to get rid of some of them on Canaria to make room for some medical supplies that were urgently needed. If the Ale was important send me the bill and I'll cover the cost.
Oh, and I fixed your seats problem with the hole in the seat. Even if my solution means that the seat is now more duct tape than anything else, you won't have to worry about the yellow spongey padding stuff anymore.
P.S. I may or may not have put your loader bot to use. Very smart investment choice you made there.
It has been five months since I paid your medical bills from Niigata, five months since I heard a single word from you and I don't even know if you're still alive or not.
Either way, you're a right fucking arsehole, Kris, you know that? Well, assuming you didn't do something idiotic and get yourself killed, then you're a damned fool.

Shit, I guess really I deserved that one. You're right. I have kept my head down ever since that whole... mess of a situation went down in Copernicus. I went back to Freeport One, and I've been doing farm work for... quite some time now. And no matter how much time passes, things'll never be the same. All the shit that happened, all the misery we had to wade through, it all happened, and there's no denyin' it anymore. I have no further excuses, Rebecca. I've been withdrawn and keeping to myself, waiting for the smoke to clear out. I just didn't realize there were others waiting for me throughout it all. Until now. And it's not just because I finally got my PDA repaired - all the things I left behind followed me in my mind for the entire time.
This is wholly on me. And for that, I am sorry.

And as I should have expected, an apology. The real question is are you going to actually do anything about any of it or just keep up with the empty apologies before going back to doing the same damn thing you've apologized for?
[Silence marks the recording for a moment before Rebecca let out a soft sigh.]
Still, as inbloodyfuriating it is for me, I'm glad you're not dead and still... you I guess.
That's good, just let me know if you plan on actually doing anything or if this just another empty apology and all that misery was waded through for nothing.
