Captian Connor: We wish to hire you and your crew to search for the Black Cheetah. It is spoken of in local legend, but it has never been proven to actually exist. There may have been a sighting near Choma, Zambia. Can you possibly assist us? It will not be an easy mission. The reports may be false.

Nairobi Museum: We understand that the reports may be false - or possibly even faked. However, we feel it is important to follow these leads either way. We agree to take your commission. We will be using the Zambezi River to penetrate the continent inland. Meet you at Lake Kariba.

Nairobi Museum: We are sorry to report that after an exhaustive search of the designated area we were unable to locate a Black Cheetah specimen. However, we do not feel that the reports were false. We uncovered a great deal of evidence, but failed to make contact with a specimen. We would like to take-up the search again in the near future. Our most sincere apoligies for falling short of our goal.
