He had already decided to go, long before he was given this flier.The diagnostic program beeped about something. He looked down at his laptop and typed in the solution he wanted. The program went on. On the telescan an advertisement came on for the Dark Knights, he chuckled, noting how thorough they were.With the bottle of pills he had secured a place in the hangar for his mech, without having to part with any of his money. It so happened that the man's wife was from the Free Worlds, and had picked up an illness during her latest visit to the folks. The symptoms didn't show up till she got back. The medication was expensive this far from the source, very expensive. The man heard one of his clients was a proficient medic from the Free Worlds, and went to him for advice. The medic had a couple of bottles of the stuff the guy was looking for, it was standard kit for Free World medics ironically. He offered him one of the bottles in his own possession for a small sum and continued use of the hangar. The owner was ecstatic, and agreed hastily.The laptop hummed an amusing tune, having successfuly completed the diagnostic. He smiled, and set it to shut down. His thoughts returned to the Dark Knights, he decided it was about time to get going. They claimed to have every mech in those simulators of theirs, and that would be something interesting to see. The laptop's little cooling fan stopped whirring, signalling its shutting down. He packed up his things slowly, taking his time. Afterwards he checked under his trenchcoat, a large pistol in a shoulder holster, a tranq gun in the small of his back and a sub-machinegun in a big custom pocket. Tapping his chest made it clear there was body armour of some sort under his shirt. Satisfied, he made his way out."Medic, eh?" he said to himself in disbelief.</blockquote>
