Last time on ShadowDawn Boston: The DracoFoundation sent me to south america to get a sample of some stupid meta-flower(there was some odd muttering about prophesy, whatever...). Anyway, when we(that is me, and some private eye they sent with me) finally got past the restless natives and the security on some guy's greenhouse to where the plant should have been, we wound in in a strange tunnel system, and could not find our way out. We ran out of food and wandered for days and days, running into bunches of strange things and had some awful nightmares.. Eventually we heard some voices talking in english from a distance. We tried to sneak up on them, but I tripped and fell. Opps! Anyway, we failed to kill each other, and they gave me some food, and said they would lead me out of the tunnels, and get me someplace useful. They seemed to have some idea of what the tunnels were, but were rather evasive, even to me! And one of them seemed to think I was on a mission after him. I'd never even heard the name Barton before, and don't know why he'd think I was after him. I wonder what the price on his head is? Anyway, they lead me around for a while, and he does have a cute butt, but he tries to hard, so I'm just going to see how much I can squeze out of him before letting him down easy. I'm not that nasty. Anyway, after a bit of wandering, we reached an odd city, and went through an arch, ending up, of all places in Saint Louis. I went to the hotel with them, and there was some odd stuff happening that they were not telling me about, but at least they told me that. Anyway, what they were willing to tell me was that they were investigating a big evil mega-corp that was probobly up to something shadey(as if there were other types of mega-corps?), and I figured I owed them a bit for getting me out of those strange tunnels, so I'm going to help them do some reaserch. After a night of clubbing, I went and hit the books. Hopefully I can get them to at least pay my way back to Boston for me. I wonder what the next few days will hold! -Lina
