Well, here it is...the first installment.
"On-line. Accessing data logs of the Resistance and the Corinthian Empire"
"Access granted, upload commencing."
Log 1: Short Fuses.
A young man rounded a corner and ran down a dark back-alley. He stopped and listened, the Corinthian Hunter-Killer was still following him. "Damn. Those things just don't quit do they?" he said. He jumped up and grabbed a pipe that was just over his head. He pulled himself onto it, and turned on his thermal sensors. The pipe matched his thermal signature perfectly, and as long as he stayed perfectly still the HK wouldn't detect him. He suddenly froze, he heard the dull clank of its armored boots on the wet concrete. It stopped two feet past him looking around the corners. He stealthily dropped down behind it and suddenly attacked, ripping its arms and legs off causing blood to spray all over the alley. He then pulled out a thirteen millimeter pistol and shot the HK between the eyes, splattering the back wall of a diner with the HK's brain and thick black blood. He turned and left, and headed back to the apartment complex. An hour later, he entered the room called the "Black Room," or, more precisely, Room 13-A. "Alright, Stalin. I've got the chip. Now give me the money," the young man said. The man, code-named "Stalin", replied, "Alright, calm down. Give me the chip and I'll give you the money." "No, Stalin. Last time I agreed to that you didn't pay me until I blew your freaking knee caps off!" the young man said. Stalin replied, "OK geez, I'll give ya yer damn money!" "Glad to do business with you," the young man said, then left the room. Downtown in a bar a young woman sat at a table staring at her glass. Where is Shadow? she thought. Just then a young man came towards her and asked, "Can I buy you a drink?" She looked up at him, he already had money on the table and was signaling the bartender and his friends. "That's way too much money to buy a drink for you, me and your two friends," she said. "That's the idea, babe. My friends and I are expecting a bit more out of our money. By the way my name is Cole*," Cole said. Just then Cole’s head exploded and his body flew backward and hit the wall. The woman turned and saw Shadow standing in the doorway, holding a smoking Hunter-Killer cannon. Cole's compatriots pulled out their shotguns, but the young lady whipped out twin 13mm pistols and landed two head shots. The two men hit the ground and the people and wall behind them were splattered with brains and bits of skull. She looked at Shadow and said, "You're late. Stalin hold you up again?" "Yeah," Shadow said, "But I got the 300K outta him. Let's go Hitoshi." "Right behind you," Hitoshi said. The pair left the bar and headed back to the apartment complex. (*Note: In this time period, you give your name after you say what you intend on doing with or, in this case, to someone.)

Log 2: Discovery
Shadow looked down at the street. They had been betrayed again, and by the same person. A man code-named "reaper". The HK's had an ace up their sleeve this time, Elite Hunter-Killers. Those would be a problem. "Hitoshi, Stalin, get yer asses up. We got trouble," he said. "What is it?" Hitoshi asked. "Elite HK's," Shadow said. "Shit I'm outta here!" Stalin said, then ran and hid in his panic-room. "Pansy-ass shit," Shadow said. "What's your plan?" Hitoshi asked, worried. "What do you think? Kill those sons of bitches," he said, calmly. The first EHK entered the room carefully, then saw that the targets had vanished, but then Shadow swung down, hanging from his legs on a pole, and shot the EHK with his 13mm. The EHK fell to the ground, dead. Then the whole brigade of HK's poured into the room, Shadow armed the HK cannon and open fired. Hitoshi swung down and unleashed with her twin .50cal. sub-machine guns. the battle only lasted about five minutes, and when it was over, Stalin came out of the panic room, looked around and said, "What the fuck? Who the fuck? How the fuck?!" "Well that certainly illustrates how many ways that word can be used in a sentence," Hitoshi said. "Stalin, calm down!" Shadow yelled. Stalin stopped swearing and said, "Ok, but what are we gonna do?" "We, meaning Hitoshi and I, are going to find a friend of ours," Shadow said. "What about me?" Stalin asked. "You can come along," Hitoshi said. "Damn, those shit-heads got away again!" Emperor Corinth XXXIII said. "Yes, and they defeated an EHK as well," the shadowy figure in the corner said. "You will hunt them down, and kill the two men, bring the girl to me," the Emperor said. The shadowy figure nodded then left.

As the shadowy figure left the Emperor said"Make sure you bring me there heads."

(Why did you put that? This isn't where you continue it....I do that...I'll start a game like that in forum games though...)
Log 3: Shadow's Flashback #1 The room was pitch-black, but that was just as well. Shadow couldn't have seen anything anyway, the surgery had caused him to go blind temporarily. He suddenly heard someone enter. Judging by the sound of the footsteps, it was his brother Jack trying to sneak up on his blind and, apparently, inept brother. Shadow smiled and acted as if he hadn’t noticed, but at the last possible second he spun and punched his little brother in the gut, hard. Shadow thought, Well, if I had hit him in the face I probably would have killed him. His brother said, wheezing, “Why do you have to punch so hard?” Shadow said, “I can’t help it, you know that. You knew that the day I came back from the hospital.” “Yeah. The doctors had to make you a cybernetic freak,” Jack said. Shadow spun and caught his younger brother’s throat in his mechanical right hand. He then said, “I am not a cyborg! You know that! Just because someone has biomechanical limbs doesn’t mean they’re a cyborg!” Just then Shadow’s sister, Jessica, entered and saw what was about to happen if she didn’t intervene. “What’s going on here?” She screamed. Shadow dropped his brother, and turned towards his sister’s voice. Then everything, including Shadow, became hazy, then he suddenly woke up, with Stalin yelling at him, again. “What is it this time?” he said grabbing Stalin by the throat to shut him up. “The EHK’s are back, this time they have Tracker- HK’s.” Damn, Shadow thought, EHK’s are bad, but THK’s? Someone’s desperate to catch us.
“Did you send them?” Corinth asked. “Yes, my Lord, I sent them,” the shadowy figure replied. “Good,” Corinth said, “Let’s see if they can stand against my THK’s.”
