Every day about 50,000 people are arrested in every sector. Most of them are your average criminal that ran out of luck.
Some are high level targets that could cause real damage.
Damage to Protected Space.
To GalCorp, mostly.
And you are probably wondering... how exactly do they discover these people so quickly? Often before they can even strike?
Be careful what questions you ask.
Because you just might get the answer.
Two weeks before the events of Particle Fleet: Emergence...
Overwatch: *BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP* Good morning, Mr. Cardigle! The time is -EIGHT- -TWENTY THREE- -AM- You have been awakened before your set time due to a-
Elias Cardigle: Yeah yeah yeah... I got it. Friend paying a visit as usual. *cough*
Paris Poh: Good morning, Eli-
Elias Cardigle: WOAH! Sheesh, man! Can you at least let me out of bed before you sneak up on me?! 'Cause you almost got a show you do
not want to see!
Paris Poh: *Chuckles* Sorry, pal. Boss sent me to pick you up. We have a case.
Elias Cardigle: On my first damn off day? *groan* Alright, alright... I'll see you at the precinct.
(At the precinct)
Paris Poh: We're here, Terry.
Elias Cardigle: Who's the new girl?
Terrance Verner: This here is Klay, she's a specialist that was sent in to help with this investigation.
Klay: Greetings.
Elias Cardigle: Just Klay? Strange name. Uh...
crap I mean, interesting... but nice... just like... *clears throat* Is that all there is, or...?
Klay: Klay's all you're getting. Terrance, the file?
Terrance Verner: Here you go. (Terrance hands Klay a file with large red "CLASSIFIED" written on it.)
Klay: This morning, we got a report of a malfunction with the local Overwatch system. A Patrol officer reported something, but the malfunction lost the report. That officer is now missing. We think somebody hacked the Overwatch system to and made it look like a malfunction. This isn't the first time this has happened. The hacker has retrieved a lot of classified data, and taken personal like this for ransoms. This is the most recent. Whoever did this is still in this sector, we've grounded all transportation. Find the missing officer. Arrest the hacker. I'll be in my room.
Terrance Verner: You two will have all the resources you need to find them. All you need to do is know what to say, and what to ask.
I'll need you to renew your Overwatch registry as well. Now get to work.
-|- Hello, Officer! Welcome to Overwatch. Please review your file and renew your registry here. -|-
-|- When you have verified your registry, select the File you want to view. If you want to take the job, reply to this post saying which officer you want. You can only take one officer. -|-
-|- Remember that this takes place before PF: E, so nothing that happened in the game, or the other stories, has happened yet. The Particulate is still unknown to everyone, even these two. -|-
-|- Use your resources to find out what you need. Most of the job has to do with questions. So make sure you're good at asking the right ones! -|-
-|- Overwatch is your friend. You use it to access the files you want, and to contact people. If you need a hint, Overwatch is the one to ask. -|-
-|- And yes, this has a direct impact on my story. -|-
-|- You ready, Officer? Go get a criminal! -|-
-|- The game starts when both slots are filled. -|-

Name: Elias Cardigle
Age: 28
Employment: Protected Space Patrol
Rank: Guard 2nd Class
Elias spent his youth in the same system he works at. His parents worked with the Patrol as well, and he decided to follow in their footsteps when they passed away a few years ago. His lineage earned him better training than most, so he's very good at his job.
Elias's strength is knowing what to do in combat situations. He is a great pilot.

Name: Paris Poh
Age: 30
Employment: Protected Space Patrol
Rank: Guard 1st Class
Poh has been in the Patrol longer than Elias. They were paired after Poh's last partner was fired for... well, being a terrible cop. After Poh and Elias were partnered, they started getting much better with arrests. After a few months, the two of them are pretty good friends as well as partners. Because Poh's rank is higher, and is a direct Seloi descendant, he has earned a lot of trust and influence.
Paris's strength is working with technology. He can do good hacking work himself, when the Patrol needs it, and can figure out a lot when it comes to computers.
