What was supposed to be an easy trade of currency for information had suddenly turned into a standoff as the information broker Marcus held the data-file hostage. He was now attempting to extort Ghost, and the other WRAITHs for more than they had initially bargained for. Ghost was livid, and visibly so, as he curled his fists in rage while hissing his words through his clenched teeth.
"What exactly do you want from me, Marcus? I have already agreed to pay you a fortune for this information. And I have given you half up front. For you to suddenly demand more is not only outrageous but is an act of bad faith."
