Talon's Junction, Wales

"Fascinating, that was better than we had anticipated." A representative of a certain underground group commented. "You definitely know your way around that craft."

"Thank you," The pilot of 'that craft' replied. "It's a rather good craft."

"If you'd like, we could tell you more about it. At a price, of course."

The man that piloted the craft scoffed, and pushed up a pair of white-rimmed glasses that had slid down the bridge of his nose.

"Feh, you should know by now that money is no object for me."

"Evidently so. Even so, you must not tell anyone. This remains with us, got it? If word of this leaks out, let's just say... there will be some consequences."

"Only those too stupid to keep their mouths shut would blab." He retorted, folding his arms.

"Do you have the money now?"

"Cash or digi-transfer?"

"Cash, like the transaction for the craft."

"Right. It depends on how much it will cost, then. Although, seeing how much it cost to pilot the craft, I wouldn't have it on me."

"It's not as much as the costs to pilot it, but it would still cost an extra 500,000."

"Somehow, I was thinking it wouldn't be just a few hundred. Come by Monday, I'll have it by then."

The representative nodded. "Very well. Good luck with the race tomorrow."

"Thank you."

Parking lot of Talon's Junction, Wales.

True to his word, the pilot had met up with the representative, with a briefcase full of money.

"Here's the money, as promised. Now, what's this extra info you have?"

"You do remember what I said, right?" The representative asked.

"Of course. I have no need or desire to disclose whatever it is you're about to say. It's purely for my own curiosity."

"Excellent."

He took the briefcase and opened it, looking at the contents for several seconds.

"That seems to be in order. Now, the information. There is a good reason as to the high costs of piloting the craft. The maintenance and insurance only covers a tiny portion of the costs."

"You're using it as a business. Rather fascinating."

The representative laughed, "Not quite. Wile we do need the extra money, it's not just to make a business out of renting the craft."

"Then...?"

"We require the funds for a related, but different cause. You see, while the original company was forcibly shut down, this craft was literally the last thing to escape the factory. Even the craft that was used in the FX300 was constructed before this thing."

The pilot nodded. "That explains the discrepancy in the design."

"Yes. In any case, as it was smuggled out, my group... acquired it, along with several important assets. Using them, along with the funds we receive through renting the craft out, we plan to develop a new craft for the new upcoming league... and resurrect Tigron Enterprises from the grave."

There will be another break, as I finalise the Season 3 stuff. Not sure how long it will take, but there will be another small side thing before Season 3 kicks off.

See you guys on the other side of the break!
