whoa...now there is a start I didn't expect. But I like it very much. Please keep writing, there is so little rex fanfiction out there, it'd be a shame to stop this great story.

:o)

Sorry for not looking over this earlier!

Very promising start but I can't believe you shot Stocki! Poor Stocki!

One nitpick though - I don't know that Richard would really go alone with just Rex if he thought the hostage takers would actually be there, he'd take some backup or maybe even a Swat team (or Austrian-equivalent of). If he's following up on an interview, or on a long shot or an unlikely lead, then I can see him going in with much less hesitation.
