"Jay, we've done a bit of tracing in your case."
Jay sighed, now regretting he even had decided to meet with Timmins. "What is your point, Matt?"
"Well, we traced you to a character named Atery."
Jay cringed. "What about him?"
"We saved him, Jay. We managed to give him a temporary ban, instead of a permanent one that his enemies would have given him. He'll be able to come back soon."
Jay shrugged. "If you want me to say thanks, don't count on it."
Timmins eyed Jay carefully. "Jay, we're on your side. We've seen what you've seen, and we understand where you're coming from."
"We?"
"John and myself."
Jay nodded slowly. "How can I believe you?"
Timmins shrugged. "I just thought you would trust me again, old friend."
Now, Timmins turned to walk away. Jay let him take a few steps, then called out to him. "I found it, you know. I have the pass word."
Timmins stopped and turned. "Really?"
Jay nodded, and took the crumpled piece of paper out of his pocket.

Scyne grinned to himself. All of his sources had failed him, and now he was forced to take care of things himself- just the way he wanted it. He didn't particularly care for any of his soon to be victims, so he wouldn't feel terribly bad.
Scyne checked over all of the preparations once more. It was, indeed, all in order. Now, all that remained, was Scyne launching the program. He smiled wickedly once more and pressed Enter.

Jay shook hands with Timmins. "Nice to have you back on my side."
Timmins nodded.
Jay sighed. "Well, I've got to go for now, we'll catch up more later."
Suddenly, Jay's face turned ghostly white. "Timmins..."
Matt turned, "Yes?"
"I can't log out..."
