Grant, who had so far been silent was sitting on the other end of the table. She was visibly quite nervous to be in the presence of the seniors for the very first time, albeit just their holograms. She made a cough before speaking up. "Well, honored collegues, senior professors. Ill begin by stating that it truly is an honor that you saw me fit to be counted amongst this elite. Most other hackers can only dream of attaining such a honor. The law surely tries their best to take us down permanently, but each time we slip through their net. We are the only ones so far that have been cunning enough to evade them over and over and over again, and we shall keep doing so, for we are Liberty's only hope of ridding them of the corporate scumbags infesting their ranks. Many losses have we incurred upon the shysters known as Ageira, many credits were stolen from the hands of the Interspace, and most of all, the Police sure know that we are the most dangerous people operating in this part of space."
She crossed her legs. "That aside, we do face a menace known as the Bounty Hunters Guild. While perhaps not as intelligent, they do seem to outperform us in combat manouvers, making life hard for anyone who is trying to inflict damage upon our enemies. These people only live for the kill, the sheer pleasure of injuring not only us, but our friends, our long lost family, and everyone else that calls him or herself a free spirit. While most of our losses are the lowly recruits, or people fully unattached to the Inner Circle, some of the losses have indeed been ours. I'm of an opinion, alongside Mister Chang here..--" She nods to the man. "--.. That we need to freshen up on our combat skills, for when the need arises that we should fight them." She then sat back again, waiting for a reaction, if any.
