[font=Palatino Linotype]The videofeed starts up and shows both Blue and Viva together this time, both in their stylish business-suits and on that particular leather couch once more, sitting side by side. It is the latter who begins to speak at first.

[color=#CCBBCC]Privyet, amigos. Tonight we come with some good news and some bad news for you all.
We'll get the bad out of the way first so we can end this talk on a happy note.
Would you like to start, mi coracon?

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]With a smile on her face Blue nods slowly and then takes over.

[color=#CC99CC]Ladies and gentlemen, you've been doing a pretty damn good job so far.
So good in fact, that the amount of those big buckets the Blue Man Group's having wander around on patrols has decreased.
And by decreased I mean significantly decreased, which in turn means what, Sugarcakes?

[color=#CCBBCC]It means that there's much fewer targets for you lot to turn into fireballs, which equals less money you can earn, amigos.
And it's not really a big surprise however, simply was to be expected that after a while the Navy would adapt.
The 'freekills' aren't around as often and whatever ships can be found alone are either commanded by more experienced captains, or...

[color=#CC99CC]Or they come with more escorts which make your life harder, ladies and gentlemen.
The thing is, my main interest lies in seeing the big buckets go up in flames.
Small fishes like all those fighters and whatever I'm not interested in.
But there's still money to be spent, and I still want more of the big buckets gone.

Sure, I could say I'm satisfied with the results as they are now, and indeed they're great, I'm damn happy about the bucket-count being so low right now.
But I want more of them gone.
Which brings me to the good news.
Viva, would you like to tell them?

[color=#CCBBCC]Gladly mi amor, gladly.
Amigos, comrades, we understand that the higher risk and the fact that you've now to spend more time lurking and looking for a target means more and harder work for you.
So we're going to double the pay temporarily, for a short amount of time, to make it worth your while.

[color=#CC99CC]You heard right ladies and gentlemen.
Doubled regular pay.
Five for a Funboat, tenner for a bucket of a Siege Cruiser or Cattlebruiser, whole twenty for a Dread or gigantic coffin.
And before any of you ask, you can still get bonuses just the same, so let's see how that will go.
That's all for now.

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]Viva quickly interrupts Blue as the latter is reaching for the remote to turn the camera off, looking confused for a second before remembering what she forgot.

[color=#CC99CC]Oh right, Mister Walker.
I've sent the pay for your work your way already, but that one's still going by the old standard.
Have fun with the shiny Credits, budda.

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]The push of a button later the screen slowly fades to black.
