[QUOTE="talien, post: 4740575, member: 3285"] [b]Dreams: Part 4 – Change Agent[/b] Hammer was just about to drop Archive off at his apartment when his cistron and Caprice's beeped at the same time. It was an urgent message from Sprague. Archive had the door partially open when Hammer slammed on the gas, hurling him back into the car and slamming the door shut. "What the—I thought you were dropping me off!" "Not anymore," said Hammer. "It's Guppy," said Caprice, reading off the cistron. “His apartment exploded." "Was Guppy hurt?" asked Archive. Caprice shook his head. "There was a body, but it wasn't Guppy's. The STREETSWEEPER team got there too late. It was Rachel Hayward, Guppy's ex-girlfriend. Forensics determined Hayward was dead for weeks." "Where's Guppy now?" "Guppy's last access on BLACKNET was to look up John Grant, who went to the same elementary school as Guppy. Sprague thinks he's going to attack Grant where he works, at Puchsky Real Estate in the Uptin Arms Hotel." The cistrons beeped again. "Now what?" asked Archive. Caprice sighed. "And there's the alert to all the OTHER agents to catch Guppy." "Great," snarled Hammer, dodging in and out of traffic.

They arrived in Peterboro four hours later. Hammer pulled the card over in front of 142 East "A" Street. Hammer was about to get out of the car when a message from Jim-Bean crackled over the comm. "Took you guys long enough. You may want to see this." A video feed flashed on their cistrons. "We interrupt this program for a NEWS ALERT," said a reporter in front of a news desk. "Global News Network received an anonymous tip that the mysterious Indian agent, responsible for rescuing Indianational Flight 270, was recently spotted entering the Uptin Arms Hotel in Peterboro." "Son of a BITCH," swore Hammer. "Someone tipped them off!" A grainy picture of Guppy flashed on the screen.
