bumbags of Celebrity Ladettes were increased
substantially.
Successful and entrepreneurial young females
like Jojo and Nix made ideal targets for the Dark
Agents of the System. The Celebrity Goon Squad
monitored their every move and covertly
photographed them as they left the hottest nightclubs
in the Smoke.
Jojo and Nix were arrested on several
occasions and hauled before disciplinary tribunals.
They were charged with Misdemeanor Ladetting but
even the System was forced to acknowledge that the
evidence was fragile at best and they were released.
However, the Dark Agents were not about to let a
pair of substantial bounties go to waste and used
their contacts in the conservative press to launch a
series of scurrilous attacks on Jojo and Nix.
The blood-thirsty hacks from the right-wing
rags denounced the two chums as degenerates and
criticized their high-profile life-styles for influencing
and encouraging the perpetuation of the Ladette
movement. The accusations were ridiculous but the
Great Unwashed is a fickle bunch and immediately
demanded action.
Jojo and Nix were arrested again and taken to
a secret silo of the System. As there were no actual
charges to be brought against them the members of
the System’s disciplinary council sat in-camera. Jojo
and Nix were denied legal representation or the
opportunity to defend themselves and were found
guilty of ‘Conspiracy to promote anti-social Ladette
behavior amongst the public at large’. They were
sentenced to seven years at the Big House without
the possibility of parole.
