Paige Kennedy

Sol City continued to be as quiet as it had ever been. Traffic flowed peacefully with its steady hum, aircraft entered the pattern in the bright blue overhead descending in a steady parade toward Sol International and people on the street generally seemed at ease.From her platform on the driving range next to Luna Sports Facility, Paige could easily take in all of it. A ball came up on the automatic tee and she briefly squared her shoulders before sending it away with a crisp thwack! and a glint of sunlight off the club. She didn’t need to watch it sail down the range into the far net, she knew by the sound how far it went and that her technique was off, too much power. The ball just shot away like a laser beam. Another one came up and she did the same thing.

The weeks that followed what happened on Catalina Island, were much like the scenery in front of her, perfectly normal, almost surreal. Though she’d had to spend a considerable amount of time in the downtown office, she’d still managed to keep Milo out of it. No one had even known he was there other than Marlin and she had no idea what happened after her helicopter left them there on that rock just off the coast. No, she had lied: Lied on the paperwork. Lied to her fellow Marshals and lied to her superiors. She knew the game and she knew exactly what to say. Even if they could tell she wasn’t giving the whole story. Just as the old maxim went: it wasn’t about what you knew, it was what you could prove. Lying was easier than telling the truth. They had trained her for it.

It was the normalcy that followed. Like nothing had happened. She’d never seen anything like it. Nikki and his clan had gone silent where she had been fulling expecting the next big showdown. Not even Agent Barrett had shown his face back at the office though she still had his Luna Sports keycard tucked in her back pocket and kept it on her at all times. Whatever they were after was inside LSF, but she’d tried it all over the facility and found nothing. Again, the trail was cold. It was the Giancana calling card: play big, then lay low. The lack of helpful leads was infuriating and everyone around her could feel it in her aura, namely Siobhan and Milo. However, as frustrated as she was, she couldn’t help the strange feeling that they were made for her and a part of her enjoyed that she hadn’t put them all in the ground... yet. It was a feeling she couldn’t really describe and didn’t talk about, like a game that she wasn’t sure she was going to win, but there was no way she’d quit.

She sighed and tapped the keypad for another round to start, glancing at her phone with her regularly stoic gaze and rolling the driver through her fingers. There was actually some warmth in the air for a change and it was almost pleasant, though she still missed Florida and thought about it every day. A slight breeze lifted the flags out over the range as it made its way through her loosely braided blonde locks. A ball came up and she cracked it away again, but instead watched it sail, the better shot curving gracefully against the wind. She was loosely holding her form with the club behind her, thinking. CT had given her the name of some kid he claimed could backtrace Agent Barrett’s keycard and see what doors in LSF it had previously opened, but she hadn’t tried to track him down. Kid stuff he called it and when she looked into it, the contact was indeed a kid. She was skeptical, but it was essentially the last lead she had without waiting for them to make another move, which was not an option. She pursed her lips slightly at the thought and blasted another laser shot away.

Welcome to Sol City

The end of Winter is finally within sight for the citizens of Sol City. Signs of Spring are all around after a frigid Winter. Citizens are rejoicing with the City in its seasonal rebirth.

After the events of the past few weeks a hopeful calm has settled and the mood is generally pleasant with the rise in temperatures and early blooms of flora around the city parks and byways. Businesses are seeing an upswing in foot traffic as more people, tourists and locals alike, come out to enjoy the start of the new season.

The New River flows gently with the occasional boat or seaplane traffic and the downtown streets are shadowed by polished skyscrapers overlooking the urban core below. It is an excellent time to be in Sol City.

What you make of the city is up to you.

The adventure awaits. Go out and find it.

Sol City "Kraken" strikes again. One wet.



The "Kraken", who escaped Sol City Aquarium last week, other wise known as "Sir Ink-A-Lot" has struck a decisive blow to the egos of a number of fishermen!

The Sol City Acute Angling Club competition meet was interrupted when the Kraken struck, overturning one boat, a very wet fishermen's ego was the first casualty, and several others had their prize catches stolen. "It was like a horror movie. My boat shook and before I knew it, I was in the water. It was there one second, and gone the next." In a short interview we met a rather wet, and sheepish or rather squidish James Protractus Salmon the 9th.

Several others had prize fish stolen, including a missing iPod which has confused even the local experts. All attempts to recapture "The Kraken" have failed, however a small boat was seen manned by several local sushi chefs with a harpoon, cleaver and a supply of pineapples for some reason that they refused to tell us with the exception that, Calamari Tuesday delivery was late.

Local Coast Guard officials have said, "The Kraken", or simply Inky to many kids tours in recent years is no threat. "It's just a lost squid, not a monster. I just feel sorry for Inky. We are told the iPod was his daughters and loaded mostly with Justin Bieber."

There were several reported sightings in the South Bay area near the Marina at Old Harbour. But are they just Red Herrings?

APEX HUNTER

After an unprecedented podium finish in Jamaica in his debut Rally with Rebellion Racing VW Group, Joel Nicolosi became the first man ever to win the Sol City Grand Prix and score a podium in the white-knuckle World Rally Series. This feat also makes Nicolosi the first American driver to place third or better in the distinctly European series in over two decades. So what's next for the former mechanic from Southside? After the Jamaica series opener, the WRS moves on to the demanding- and supremely treacherous, mountains of Argentina continuing it's two-part stint south of North America before heading for the longer, European leg of the season. However, rumor has it, that in the interim, the team plans to enter one of its demo cars into the open-class of the Vineyard Rally to be held in just two weeks time. Will Nicolosi fly high again? The answer is truly up in the air, both figuratively and literally. Some of our sources have also indicated interest in a crack at the Isle of Man TT record for production cars in a joint effort with his old sponsor, Olympus Heavy Industries, to coincide with the Wales Rally of Great Britain to be held later this year. Time will tell, but for the moment, many eyes in the motorsports world will be focused on a small shop in southern Sol City.
