Fall asleep forever that is . . . If you still don't understand, it's a suicide pill.

Spreegem hit the nail on the head. Assasins typically, and traditionally keep a means of suicide on them to prevent being captured and tortured for information. This is especially true in Japanese culture. Given the super dedicated nature of Nod, and thier belief that Kane is messiah, this would also be true for their assasins.

And no, I don't advocate that approach. There is only one messiah, and Jesus doesn't want people killing at all, let alone themselves.

Sorry for the delay folks. Yesterday was meeting hell, and I was unable to do much. Welcome to Dilbertville...........

I think Sergie(SP?) is going to get a good score, maybe not perfect, but a very good one. He took his tiem while he was in the firing range, and won that little war game against the elite BH people.

Of course I'll let the man write his work!! Sergei is an infiltration unit, so will he become one of the stealth black hand, or will he be an elite inflitration unit that the stealth can't handle? Sergei, of course will get a good score, the firing range is meant for presicion, not speed.

Goddamnit.

I was just getting into reading it here and was a fantasic addition to the forums, apart from the masses of junk that's posted here. Whatever caused the decision to be made to not update it here, I hope you change your mind.


YARR! The pirate life is for me! http://www.n00bstories.com/image.fetch.php?id=1202408761

Keep all discussions for the story in this thread instead of littering the story itself with comments. This should help it proliferate better.

I'm the bawss.

It was Kirby's choice. He explains why on a news piece on the mainpage. You can read it by clicking >here<.

The last few story posts was written by someone else. Was he to busy and asked you guys, or he wanted you to because he was tired?

^^

Kirby is still writing the story, but has decided to update it >here< instead of in the thread. The reason the last couple of segments have been posted by someone else is because they are updating the thread here with what Kirby posted.

So in other words, he is writing it on exyte.com instead of here.
