Wall Street Journal: The Frosting Of Wall Street

The New York Stock Exchange confirmed that Frost Enterprises has won the contract for power supply, both wiring and protection, in the iconic building, which was almost destroyed in the mutant terrorist attack last month. It is rumoured that Frost Enterprises was able to see off the rival bid of Shaw Industries through its cutting-edge electronic engineering that will provide protection against future mutant incursions into the Exchange's computing and electronic systems. All details of the contract are strictly commercial-in-confidence but the profits are expected to be handsome. Frost Enterprises, recently involved in the tactically-sound acquisition of a number of companies at bargain basement prices, is one of the few companies to be expanding in value during the current global financial crisis.

Frost Enterprises CEO, Ms Emma Frost, was unavailable for comment.

I apologise again for my abrupt disappearance from Wakanda without discussing the incident with Trask and the other telepath in more detail. If you read the financial papers today, you will be aware that Frost Enterprises had some pressing business for me to attend to, which I have now successfully resolved. In the process of resolution, I have also managed to greatly inconvenience Sebastian, which has left me with what can only be described as a warm glow.

I can confirm that I had some research undertaken into the woman who attacked me while i was dealing with Trask and can confirm that it was definitely Carly Alvarez, as you initially identified. Which presumably means that she is decidely not deceased, despite all of the information you have to the contrary.

I have also reviewed our encounter - brief and painful as it was; the bitch took me from behind and that wasn't anywhere near as much fun as it usually is when I get to use that phrase - and can confirm that her psi-patterns still conform to her conditioning. She hasn't managed to break out of what they did to her.

You will have to do something about Trask. There is obsessed and there is obsessed. Anyone who chooses to start hiring Taygetos operatives as a little love-note to get you to come and see her is not someone who should be allowed out of any of the number of asylums that I have had the not-even-slightly-a-pleasure of being inside.

Let me know if you need any further information or assistance. In the meantime, I am going to go and send Sebastian a consolation e-mail. If only I could share in his sense of loss.

Yes, I am gloating. It's unseemly, which is why I'm doing it in private.
