My dear Red,
I hope where I left you after your unfortunate incarceration, was safe and secure, I apologise for the emptiness of it and no doubt you have since then wisely fled the Omega 49 system. However certain circumstances have forced me to delay contacting you. You see Mr Blackwood has betrayed me and as an extension you. He experimented on me and implanted two devices, which is why I look a miserable wretch destined for the streets. First this device, as you can see embedded on this knife I am holding is a bionic eye no doubt planted under direct orders of Mr Blackwood to what I assume it's main purpose covertly spy on the people and places that I visit. Secondly, this bloody microchip was implanted on my right forearm which undoubtedly was a tracking device. Both of which as you can see have been removed as I can't risk Blackwood and whoever is working with him on this, finding us.
Now, unfortunately, Dr Matthais the man who you frequently supplied perished in my escape after he went and set up an explosion, that caused the diversion needed for my escape. However as you may be aware you friend Larry Macduff, seems to have joined in partnership with that bounty hunter Charles Jinxia, now I am unaware if he knows about what happened but the best case scenario is that he is blissfully ignorant whilst the worst case is as you can imagine full co-operation between the two, however I feel, that it may be best coming from you, should you intend on doing so.
Now as for myself, I am heading to deep omega's to avoid Blackwood for the time being, I have a small apartment on Freeport 5 for such cases, you are of course welcome to it as well. Again I am sorry for involving such a monster in your life.
"It's not a compliment, it's a matter of fact. I never saw you whining about stuff when it didn't go your way, you never do ooRP-arranged stuff, you're active, you're good at playing your character ingame and you're neutral enough to not end up as a clown infront of the community."

You were not the only one betrayed by Blackwood. From what I remember, I was offered and assured safety onto Gran Canaria. Prior that however, I found myself being stripped off Royal Lynx and became imprisoned by some time. All that, because I fell into false belief he was one of the neutral shippers serving Blackwood - this is when tortures began and I have no intention speaking what this Charles was doing to me, these tortures were... inhumane and-- I do not really want to speak about it. That guy of Blackwood is the biggest monster I have seen so far. When that mothef---- became bored, I found myself on way to GMG... You know the rest.
I will come to Freeport 5 as soon as possible, as I do want some refuge myself. I need to gather my thoughts... I will come on my new ship, because in order to avoid all these things, I had to renew relations with Corsair Empire.

*you hear a familiar voice from the comm* Mr.Dance. I am relieved to hear you and Red are still alive. That lifts a boulder in my soul.
I hacked inside the comms between Mr.Blackwood and Mr.Jinxia and I know what happened to both you and Red. Everything. I didn't imagine he would get to do such things. I might be reconsidering him as a client...
And, just to let you know, I have shipping-only relations with Jinxia. I knew after hacking Jinxia's datapad that he actually also works as a smuggler/bounty hunter. Know this, Enzo: I would never co-operate with him in finding you two. As of that, I have already...tweaked my systems to prevent tracking from both Blackwood and Jinxia on all of my vessels.
About the bionic eye, you are right about it, Enzo. It actually is a spying and tracking device, with which Blackwood can find you, wherever you are.
Unless the eye itself is destroyed. I'll try to hack the eyes main components and deactivate them permanently.
For the time being, the both of you should stay holed somewhere secure. Keep a low profile. But you know that already.
I am tweaking this comm for the three of us, so that those backstabbers (you know who I am referring to) won't track us:
:: Hacking protocol OMEGA-ALPHA-SIGMA-MU-THETA initiated. Sending identifications to Red Kimiki and Enzo Dance ::
:: Anti-tracking protocol OMEGA-BETA-TAU-GAMMA initiated. Comm-link secure and highly stable. ::
That should do it. *smile* My highly advanced hacking knowledge given to me (from a former Lane Hacker friend that died several years ago) still works wonders. Anyway, this comm is secure now.
Red...I couldn't belive Blackwood would come to this. Rest assured, I'll do whatever I can to cover both yours and Enzo's backsides. In case you didn't know, this comm is secure. My hacks have never been violated. Not even by those LSF/BDM/KNI/Kempeitai/BIS punks. I'm 20 times ahead of them. *smirks*
Stay safe. Call me up if you need something, and I'll be getting that to you.
Sincerely,
~Larry

*you hear a familiar voice from the comm. It sounds grave and worried at the same time* Mr.Dance. I need to give you grave news-our mutual friend Red Kimiki has gone MIA.
A freelancer hired by that guy Charles Jinxia managed to get hold of him. As of now, Jinxia himself is on Gran Canaria, preparing to torture him. Eventually, they'll discover your position. AH! I feel so...so...impotent. Nevertheless, I will head to Gran Canaria and take Red out of there. If Jinxia stands in my way, he will die. Painfully. You, on the other hand, should seek refuge somewhere. If you're not hostile towards Gallia, head to Planet Lyon, and dock with the docking ring headed to Croix-Rousse. As soon as you enter Lyon, take the ship to a private landing pad. In front of it, there's a small underground hangar. My robots there will move it. Over the hangar, my house sits. Stay low there for a while.
I'll see if I can save Red from Jinxia, once more. If I don't...at least I tried.
Stay safe, and godspeed.

Enzo's communication device started beeping incessantly with a new message, Enzo who was at that time in the middle of deep thought, utilising a mind palace with which he was using to plan how to enter and exit the Blackwood estate to cut off the head of the proverbial snake, in the dark of the night. However after ignoring it for awhile the beeping grew more distracting until it disrupted Enzo's concentration.

My friend, this is indeed troubling news, however, I would counsel against rushing in, it is likely that was the intention a trap, and unlike myself or Red you are unfortunately in the position where you are not valuable enough in their eyes, thus they have no reasons not to kill you. Despite this, I believe you are going to do so anyway, so I would recommend taking a hazmat suit with you or at the very least a decent gas mask.
Godspeed and good luck.
Enzo

It was time, Enzo thought to himself as he removed a curved sword from the nearby draw and headed towards his freighter that was docked in docking bay 23.
Enzo, I safely reached Gran Canaria. I hope you're safe out there.
As we speak, I am taking a little rest in a local motel.
I hope to find that S.O.A.B. Jinxia, and let him suffer. What what he's done. Next, Blackwood. And even him is going to suffer. For what did to Red. And to you.
Have to say this: ever since I knew you and Red, I felt a sort of...feeling. Which goes over simple friendship, way over. I can't explain it, but when you were in need, I adoperated myself to keep you covered. All this time, I tried to help both of you, indirectly. The one that hacked Jinxia and Blackwood's comm...It was me, if you remember. I always wanted to see Blackwood in person, and see which kind of person he was. Needless to say, I saw it with my eyes, looking at what he did.
If you approve with me, I say it's time to end this. Once, and for all. Heck, before ending as a trader, I did a myriad of jobs...and trained in handgun usage. Time to rust off that training I did.
Wish me lots of luck, my friend. I will need it to complete my endeavour.
Keep staying safe, and godspeed.

Enzo, I safely rescued Red from Jinxia's clutches. He's in a rather bas shape. Torture signs, shocked, battered, and still has mental sanity. He's a tough guy, I knew it.
I also tried to blow him up, to let him pay for what he did. He managed to escape. Nevertheless, I managed to get hold of his boss's name-a certain Mr.Whitehall.
Also, Jinxia made you a favour-putting Blackwood in permanent retirement.
As of now, me and Red are on Cambridge to patch the latter up. Looks like this is over, for now.
Stay safe, and godspeed.
