Hi hidori (another of my gang) hows your day been.....

My day ain't been so rewarding if fact its been shite. Me, some of combat and Wallace go out onto the station looking for some action, its a Martain run station and its friendly so we got behave, seems to me I got behave whatever I do. We goes tramping along T deck looking for action an sees a advert for A VR combat sim, an what they got they got is da house paying 7 for 1 if we smack the house team, Not Bad we think ok give it a go.

Another round here...

So we look over the games they got availiable one is Space Marine, our team vs the houses, four vs 4 we give it ago, so all stake up a 100 credits and do it. Yeah give it ago were piartes we can handle them. so put on the full body imersion VR suit and we are in. Jollie rogeur's there and he says yeah play as team and stick together, I says ok and runs off into the cover of canal breaking off the other three in our team. So I sneak around and the stick me head up and blam the House guys are there pointing right at me scas balsting. I'm outgunned and fucked so I get back to the guys. Holding up in a block of offices type thing. Then gangs sees the house guys coming, and we popp off and miss and nmiss and miss and they hit and hit and hit. Shit the house teams better than good, well anyway try all of our tericks ambushes speed traps, whatever and gets us nowhere and its game over quicker than a breath. I totally pissed no way we were that shit, anyways. So I called up Giles, hes good with computers, not as good as you of course! Any Giles hacks into there system and discovers the house team have been taking the piss out of us and using cheat codes, and had over positions on there a heads up display. Anit no fair time to get even. We argue the toss and decise to turn there chaets off and see what happens, and then we get Giles and sharon to play for us a s a couple ringers Marines when there not shining there weapons are always using VR sims. Anyway I drops out of the four and leave it to them tro get some drinks in , dunno whats kept them, they trashed those snot nosed geeks by now...

Ahh here they are hey the returning heros, fellas over here tells us what happened
