                            ORIGINAL DIRTY PAIR
                                  Volume 3

What do you do when your top trouble consultant is lost to the dark side of
the hottest casino ever? You send in your Loveliest Angels of course. But
is it really wise to give this most destructive duo access to the power of
a planet-busting asteroid rail gun? Let the asteroids fall where they may
in "Nobody's Doing it Anymore!"

Nothing scares the Godfather of the largest criminal family on the planet;
nothing, that is, except his son marrying one of the infamous Dirty Pair.
Can Kei save Yuri from a life of illicitly won fame and fortune? Or will
the Family take the Angels, and the rest of the 3WA as well, on a one-way
ride in "The Weding Panic!"
