There have been a number of kidnappings in the Redmond area; see related [[Redmond Kidnapping Spree, Drones Abroad\|news report]]. Red Rose is the third student of [[SignificantNPC::Angela]]'s who had been taken. One student, Pale Horse, had been found. One was still missing.

	Of the runners involved looking for Red Rose, one had investigated two prior kidnappings in the area. [[Aristotle]] had helped find a kidnapped orc tech producer; see [[Hold Down the Block\|report]]; and a student kidnapped by the ~~yakua~~; see [[A Little Doll's Dream\|report]]. In both cases, the victim was given the drug Laes.		Of the runners involved looking for Red Rose, one had investigated two prior kidnappings in the area.

	I felt a siren call to this job. The Sea washes me ashore in strange places with bad pay. It did turn into quite the good time I suppose, kicking those lily-livered frag-trapping gits to bits.

			I normally keep things to a professional and practical level with jobs, however the recent scourge of this nature plaguing the barrens hit a personal chord with me. I was glad to be able to lend aid where I could help, and make use of a favor a ritualist owed me to find the girl. There's too many vastly different criminal groups following similar patterns in the same amount of time, but also targeting different groups and doing different things, motives are unclear but there's a small string connecting it all together. It might be paranoia, however in my tradition these coincidences although small are way too unlikely to be unrelated, it does not bode well. Watch your backs out there in the barrens, I hope we'll be able to stop it soon if it doesn't stop on its own.

	[[Moth]] here; this was my 30th run. This was a good team. Lots of useful skills, and a real focus on investigation. All professionals, who stayed on task and did what was needed to recover the girl safely. I was pretty nervous that the street samurai was going to get away with Scarlet! But, we did it! I am so glad to see her safely returned to her sister. And to see our team safely recovering from their injuries. I made sure everyone had a good night's sleep and a good breakfast, and that Aristotle and Wild Star didn't need first aid in the night. What particularly caught my attention was that every kidnapping victim that we are aware of was treated with Laes. I think this is something I can investigate with Papa; all the Laes comes through the Laesa syndicate. When did the Yakuza buy it from us? When did the Cutters? I don't like seeing our signature product used to kidnap people. (Though, really, that is one of the reasons it fetches such a good price.) But maybe we can at least help track down who is behind this? The Laes and the super fancy VTOLs seem to be the two things that might help us track this puzzle back to who is paying for these kidnap victims. Someone is. The Cutters are contract workers. Who were they working for?		[[Moth]] here; this was my 30th run. This was a good team. Lots of useful skills, and a real focus on investigation.

	[[Wild Star]] called in to Lone Star, as an active detective, and quickly verified that these were imposters. She checked the back where the fourth man had been, and verified his boots were not Lone Star issue. [[Scurvy]] investigated with keen vision, and found some kind of compartment under the floorboards in Scarlet's room; likely for her drugs. [[Moth]] asked the sister for any details she could remember from the fight that might possibly identify the imposters. The sister confirmed they were human, and remembered from the fight that one had a tattoo on his ankle. An unusual design. Moth did not immediately recognize it, but could tell it was some kind of gang or syndicate symbol; she called her father [[SignificantNPC::King Midas]] and he was able to confirm that the upside down spade (like the playing card) with barbed wire was the sign of the [[Cutters]]. Likewise, he knew that their turf was around Cottage Lake. That would help considerably in searching. [[Aristotle]] searched Scarlet's bedroom - with the sister's permission - for personal items that would help search for her magically, and took her trodes and a hair brush with her hair.

	With the knowledge of the location to search, and the personal effects to make a material connection, they had the pieces needed for a more effective magical search. [[Aristotle]] called ~~her~~ contact [[SignificantNPC::Ariel Lopez]], a shaman who could summon a spirit of man to search using the personal effects. She owed Aristotle a favor, and agreed to help. [[Moth]] arranged for them to use a Laesa safehouse near Cottage Lake to set up for the spell, and meet Ariel. Ariel arrived and confirmed for the team that Scarlet was nearby; she could lead them to her location. Scarlet was in an abandoned factory building in [[Cutters]] turf, back along a road barricaded by the Cutters.

	[[Aristotle]] switched to astral projection to scout the factory, with confirmation that [[Scurvy]] would tend and carry his body if needed. He scouted carefully, avoiding the watchful eye of a spirit over the warehouse. He found that the factory was a large open space, with abandoned equipment. There were four guards (two awakened - a mage and an adept), and one victim being guarded who was injured, and had been treated with Laes.
