Subject: Hey Dani, it's Karen.

Look I know I'm probably the last person you want to see an e-mail from waiting for you in your mail box but, I have something very important I need to ask you. Last weekend there was an FOH rally, that me parents and brother went to. I went to the mall. Well, they didn't come home untill way after midnight, and Josh later then that. The next day, one of his best friends, Tommy Jones, went missing. Today, I overheard Josh bragging to some of his new 'friends' that a boy manifested at the rally and after he'd been beaten to death, he and some of his friends dumped the body outside your school. I can't help but think it was Tommy since he disappeared the same day.

I know I probably have no right to ask this, but is he, ya know...really dead like Josh says? The kid may have been an ass now that I look back on it but he was still like another little brother to me.

That isn't the only thing I wanted to ask. I also wanted to know if you've delivered your baby or not yet...I want to know how your doing in general. I just really needed the courage to finally e-mail you.

I miss going to Tai Chi and being friends.

I hope to hear from you, but if not, I understand.

Subject: JETSTREAM designs

After speaking with Dr. Hawksmoor at length, we've come up against a serious problem with the cybernetics and plans that were retrieved this morning.

That being that they won't work as designed. While adapted from the original Jetstream designs, this generation doesn't take into account the extreme heat generated by the subject's mutant power, and quite simply will not function as designed.

I can fix this. I can adapt the myomer to operate at high temperatures, but it'll take time and some intense redesign. Once I have a preliminary design, I can figure out what will be needed to adapt the existing backups of the MMI firmware we have. It's going to require a complete rewrite of the software, which will need out programming specialists. No need to call them back onsite just yet, I don't have parameters ready for them. But we're going to have to work fast once I get them.

Problem the second: This may be a secondary issue - this is patented technology that I'm dissecting and reverse-engineering here. If certain federal authorities catch wind of this, not to mention the patentholders, there may be a legal battle to turn over all prototypes, designs, and works in progress. While right now my plan is to charge ahead and damn the legalities, someone may want to look into this while we're busy saving Mr. al-Rashid's life.

Will be in the mech. lab unless otherwise indicated. Paige? I'm going to need some hardcore atomic chemistry expertise here, which means you're my primary on this. As soon as someone can put Kitty and Doug in contact with me, please do so.

Subject: Jetstream design legal issues

I've been looking over the documents Alison gave me. Haven't had time to do much more than skim them, but I think it's safe to say that if someone wants to make an issue of this, they probably can. The good news is that even if that happens, we can at the very least stall, as well as put forward a fairly compelling argument in our own defense. Contracts and patents aren't my specialty, but there is room to manuever here and I can see that much. I'll start organizing our potential response, just in the name of being prepared. There's a hell of a lot of data to go through - Shaw's patenting system is somewhat counterintuitive to the layman - so it may take me a while.

Your son is up here playing with my daughter and the bird. Perfectly happy to keep him for the rest of the day if it comes to that. You need to get some rest.

And no, that wasn't a suggestion.
