			Gang violence is always a quick way to make some money an well helping the ancient is one way to make sure you make a decent living t .t I got my *** kicked so yeah the job was much harder than I originally imagined and the fact that the stupid Decker did not bloody die…I wasn't so happy about the bodies being fed to ghouls who on earth does that. I know i kill people for a living but really, feeding them to Ghouls and using bullets made from rads, i'm shocked KE is not all over you!

Meanwhile, Frostbite engages in a sniper duel with the Cutters sharpshooter using Zenith's fancy new Terracotta rifle, alerting the guard to his presence and ending up full of bullets. He manages to distract the sniper though, and last long enough to pull a hi-ex grenade on the guard to take them both to Valhala (thankfully he manages to roll just well enough on his post-edged soak roll to pass out without bleeding out before the rest of the team can get to him after the fight).

==Summary==
In which the team are tasked by [[Argent]] with recovering the jacket of a fallen Ancient from the Cutters.

==The Meet==
The runners are asked to meet at a Silver Linings, the bar Argent operates out of in Loveland which the Haven assisted with the takeover of in [[Pressing the Attack]] and [[There Goes the Neighborhood]]. Everyone is able to make it on time, though Rougarou ends up having to call a coworker and convincing her to cover her shift at her day job at Stuffer Shack. Inside, they find a bunch of Ancients drinking and having a good time, and are met with shots by Argent, who walks them through what he needs of them. He explains that a Cutters base was recently attacked (see: [[Digital Dark Age]]) and their forces decimated, providing a window of opportunity to strike - he wants them to infiltrate and recover a jacket belonging to a friend of his from when he was in the Ancients, for which he is willing to pay them 10k nuyen each. He also offers to double the payment if they bring him the jacket of the Cutters lieutenant in charge - a talented street same called Johnny Azure who has killed several Ancients in the ongoing war between the two gangs. The team agrees to these terms, but Magnum has a pang of conscience when his Gunyan mentor lets him know that taking the Ancients jacket back might be kosher, but taking the Cutters one defenitly isn't, as it would only continue the cycle of violence between the groups.

==The Plan==
Not a whole lot honestly - the team have the location of the Cutters base in Redmond and are a bunch of superpowered professional murderers ready to murder people professionally using their superpowers, so they kit up and head out to do some crime. Argent has the team give him a heads up as they're ready for go-time so that he can have the Ancients attack the Cutters and ensure that there won't be any backup arriving before they manage to get the jacket and get out of the gang's territory.

==The Run==
Approaching the walled campus lot, Zenith confirms there is no one on the other side before giving Rougarou the go-ahead to wall-run up it with a rope so that the rest can follow - all except Frostbite (who's astral hazing creeps the other adepts out), who scales a nearby building with his climbing claws to find a good sniper's perch. Unfortunately after the last run the Cutters have posted someone in the building, so Frostbite has to sneak past the guard with his RPC to get into position. While he does so, the others sneak inside the base and make their way stealthily past the guards - since they're a bunch of physads with RPC and/or lots of edge, they're able to avoid notice as they make their way in diamond formation through the base looking for the jacket. While they don't find it, they do find a magical lodge which a telescoping mirror on a stick confirms contains a decker and a conjurer, so after Rougarou takes out a lone guard silently with her sword they set up a breaching maneuver and instigate a surprise attack.

What follows is a quick but brutal fight - Skimmer quickly deletes the conjurer, cutting off spirit backup, but taking down the decker proves a lot harder, since he's augged out as a combat hacker and manages to dodge or shrug off most of their shots. Johnny Azure joins the chaos with his custom look spec-modded Ares Alpha, lighting up the runners with called shots while his mooks back him up with complex full auto and suppressive fire. Meanwhile, Frostbite engages in a sniper duel with the Cutters sharpshooter using Zenith's fancy new Terracotta rifle, alerting the guard to his presence and ending up full of bullets. He manages to distract the sniper though, and last long enough to pull a hi-ex grenade on the guard to take them both to Valhala (thankfully he manages to roll just well enough on his post-edged soak roll to pass out without bleeding out before the rest of the team can get to him after the fight).

Inside the base, Rougarou (forcing multiple mooks to retreat with her Raiden before engaging in a sword-on-gun duel)and Zenith (dodging bullet after bullet while slowly chipping away at the enemy's condition modifier) put up valiant fights, but are knocked out by Johnny Azure and the sniper respectively. Skimmer puts down Johnny with his depleted uranium rounds before engaging in a firefight with the sniper while Magnum does his best to put down the surprisingly-resilient decker, finally taking him out with a headshot. Seeing that their leaders have fallen, the sniper calls for the rest of the mooks to retreat, however Magnum and Skimmer have no intention of letting them escape - Magnum tosses a bottle of ultraglide which Skimmer shoots and scatters everywhere, making the Cutters slip and fall in their attempts to flee, and they are put down with extreme prejudice.

==Aftermath==
While Skimmer calls up [[Zigzag]] to handle body disposal, Magnum revives Rougarou and Zenith (who go to look for the jacket) before going to handle Frostbite, saving the life of the ganger he took down with the grenade in the process as well (and ensuring that someone will spread the word about who killed Johnny Azure). Once the jacket is located, Magnum takes it back to Argent and washes his hands of the offer of extra payment while the rest of the team wait for sunset so that the ghoul organlegger will arrive to deal with the corpses. She arrives and explains to Skimmer that she has little use for bodies filled with depleted uranium shards, so he has her give those ones to [[Nameless]] and his flock below Glow City per their standing arrangement (who don't mind a bit of spice in their food).

Returning to Argent, the remaining team members present him with Johnny Azure's jacket, which he gives to his old crew along with the one belonging to their fallen comrade-in-arms. Giving the team their promised payment, he offers to remain in contact with them if they so wish, and to remember the aid they've given him in avenging his friend's death - thinking ahead, he also tells them to come to him for a better deal if the Cutters ever hire them to get Johnny's jacket back.

==Rewards==
* 20k nuyen
* 2 karma
* (For Magnum: 10k nuyen and 7 karma for turning down blood money)
* 2 CDP
* +3 Ancients rep
* Optional Contact: [[Argent]] (C1/L3 Fixer) for 3 RVP or 6 CDP
* Optional Contact: [[Zigzag]] (C1/L1 Mobile Body Disposal) for 1 RVP or 2 CDP
