	[[Sanjuro]] - Oh boy! What a run! Bicycled down to the meet site and met some very cool shadowrunners! Everyone was so cool and good at shadowrunning. We got a job to find a 'cockroach' (elf, i was confused too) and bring him in alive. He had 'debt' or something. He found the complex, our wizardy friend did some spirit magic to find him. FedUp and I charmed our way past the guards and the receptionist and we found his apartment. I shot him down with a hammerhead arrow and we were home free! Just a wonderful job, start to finish.		===[[Sanjuro]]===

			===[[Pell]]===
			Well, that was a very simple job, all things considered. The other 3 runners were competent, and I would rely on them to at least be professional about doing the job, from what I've observed.

	A low threat bounty hunt done on behalf of the information broker and restaurant owner Trelawney. The team consisted of the MysAd fashionista Pell; ex-ganger and swarm rigger ~~Scrappeny~~; bearded smuggler Fed Up; and cycling StreetSam Sanjuro. The objective was to retrieve one of Trelawney's unwilling assets, a Shiawase server tech named Oliver Hernandez, from the megatower apartment that he had holed himself up in. The team found and extracted Hernandez through a combination of cosplay, spirit summoning, and generous bribery, delivering him to Trelawney with only a minor concussion. A job well done, the team celebrated by getting drunk and watching pirated Steven Segal trids. Except ~~Scrappeny~~; she went home and ate frozen pizza.

	It was a muggy and grey afternoon as the runners pulled into the Cornerside's parking lot. Between the obvious ganger and the troll in a samurai costume, the group drew no shortage of attention from the restaurant's customers. Pell, a fantastically dressed elf, looked over the people who she'd been hired to work with; her eyes flashed with arcane light as she assensed the group's auras. Fed Up, a scraggly elven rigger, glowed with satisfaction as he sipped on a large Baja Blast. Sanjuro, the group's street samurai, brimmed with poorly-contained excitement at her first real shadowrun. ~~Scrappeny~~, the group's other rigger, was mostly just relieved to have found something to do ~~today~~. As the four made their introductions, they were guided around back by a neatly dressed orkish waiter.		It was a muggy and grey afternoon as the runners pulled into the Cornerside's parking lot.

	The group met with Trelawney in the back of the restaurant, and were served soykaf as they learned the details of the job. Payment was agreed at 8,000 nuyen per person, and Trelawny retired to her office. The group was left to finish their soykaf and discuss the plan. As the team talked, Pell took notice of one of the restaurant's cooks: an acne-faced teenager who had been staring since the group walked in. Gawking at people is awfully rude, and so Pell decided to remind the kid of his manners. By summoning a force nine water spirit in front of him. The air around Pell thrummed with energy as the steam rising off the stoves curled into a swirling, humanoid form. The kid's jaw dropped open, his knife slashing his finger and clattering to the floor as he clambered back. Then, just as quickly as it had formed, the spirit dissipated into vapor. The rest of the cooks turned at the commotion and saw the kid stricken pale, clutching at his cut finger. "For gods' sake, Kevin," one sighed, "it's just a cut".

	The party finalized their plan as they pulled into the megatower's parking garage, Sanjuro's bike stashed in the back of Fed Up's car. Hernandez himself wasn't a threat. By all accounts he was a massive coward, and unlikely to do anything more than run. It was finding him that presented a problem; Hernandez's apartment could be anywhere in the megatower. Sanjuro suggested going around and knocking on doors until they found him, but Pell decided on a more elegant solution. She called once again upon her water spirit, its vapor rising from the cracks in the concrete, and held up a picture of Hernandez; a thoroughly unimpressive elf in a severe mid-life crisis. The spirit gazed for a moment, sightlessly, upon Hernandez's Urban Brawl shirt and greasy fauxhawk. With a faint hissing sound, it dissipated and set off towards the megabuilding.

	As Pell's spirit searched, the rest of the team set about solving their second problem: the megatower's security. The apartments were equipped with break-in alarms, and they guessed that Hernandez wouldn't be too keen on letting them in. ~~Scrappeny~~ called up one of her contacts, hoping to procure a shape-shifting jacket for a pizzaman disguise, but was informed that it would take several days to ship. Plan B, then. As the best talker of the three Fed Up smoothed his beard and set off towards the building office, Sanjuro in tow, hoping to figure out the code for the room's lock. Scrappeny stayed outside to keep the car running, just in case.		As Pell's spirit searched, the rest of the team set about solving their second problem: the megatower's security.

Your room code is 3456. Write it down this time."

	As the pair said their goodbyes, Pell's spirit finally located their target. He was watching trid inside a barren apartment, sitting on a fold-out lawn chair in the middle of the room. Pell, Sanjuro, and Scrappeny headed for the elevator, while Fed Up stayed outside to keep the car running. The rent-a-cop standing by the elevator considered saying something to the three armed shadowrunners. When Scrappeny shoved a five hundred nuyen credstick in his hand, a silent understanding was reached. The team found Hernandez's room without too much trouble, and quietly punched in the code. ~~Scrappeny~~ got ready to breach, reeled back, and kicked the door as hard as she could. It didn't budge. Pell turned the handle and swung it open.		As the pair said their goodbyes, Pell's spirit finally located their target.

	Hernandez scrambled out of his lawn chair, making a dash for the balcony. What his escape plan was, we'll never know; Sanjuro's hammerhead arrow knocked him out before he cleared five feet. He didn't even have a chance to scream. Their target captured, the team threw a cloak over his body and tossed him over Sanjuro's shoulder. Despite the fact that they were obviously kidnapping someone, the rent-a-cop let them pass without a work. Five hundred nuyen is a hell of a bribe when you're working minimum wage. They stuffed him into Fed Up's smuggling compartment, and drove off to meet with the Johnson.		Hernandez scrambled out of his lawn chair, making a dash for the balcony.

	The drop off point was a warehouse in southern Auburn. Hernandez bargained and pled as the trunk was popped open, promising the team money that he absolutely didn't have. Scrappeny knocked him out with the butt of her rifle. As the orcish waiter dragged Hernandez inside the warehouse, Trelawny congratulated the team on a job well done. The money transferred and the Johnson satisfied, the team did the only logical thing: going back and looting Hernandez's apartment. After all, he ''might'' not have been lying about that money. Turns out that he was, but the group did manage to loot a box of vintage Steven Segal trids. ~~Scrappeny~~ went home to partake in her post-run beer and frozen pizza, while the rest of the team hit up a bar.

Pell, a fantastically dressed elf, looked over the people who she'd been hired to work with; her eyes flashed with arcane light as she assensed the group's auras. Fed Up, a scraggly elven rigger, glowed with satisfaction as he sipped on a large Baja Blast. Sanjuro, the group's street samurai, brimmed with poorly-contained excitement at her first real shadowrun. Scrappeny, the group's other rigger, was mostly just relieved to have found something to do today. As the four made their introductions, they were guided around back by a neatly dressed orkish waiter.

	The group met with Trelawney in the back of the restaurant, and were served soykaf as they learned the details of the job. Payment was agreed at 8,000 nuyen per person, and Trelawny retired to her office. The group was left to finish their soykaf and discuss the plan. As the team talked, Pell took notice of one of the restaurant's cooks: an acne-faced teenager who had been staring since the group walked in. Gawking at people is awfully rude, and so Pell decided to remind the kid of his manners. By summoning a force nine water spirit in front of him. The air around Pell ~~hummed~~ with energy as the steam rising off the stoves curled into a ~~twisting~~, humanoid form. The kid's jaw dropped open, his knife ~~slicing~~ his finger as he ~~frantically backed away from the spirit~~. Then, just as quickly as it had formed, the spirit dissipated into vapor. The rest of the cooks turned at the commotion and saw the kid stricken pale, clutching at his cut finger. ~~There was a moment of absolute silence~~, ~~and then everyone went back to work. Pell cast~~ a ~~healing spell on the poor lad as the team left~~.		The group met with Trelawney in the back of the restaurant, and were served soykaf as they learned the details of the job.

The rest of the cooks turned at the commotion and saw the kid stricken pale, clutching at his cut finger. "For gods' sake, Kevin," one sighed, "it's just a cut".
	==The Plan==		==The Plan==

	The party finalized their plan as they pulled into the megatower's parking garage, Sanjuro's bike stashed in the back of Fed Up's car. Hernandez himself ~~didn~~'t threat. By all accounts he was a massive coward, and unlikely to do anything more than run~~. If they could find him, they could probably catch him~~. It was finding him that presented a problem; Hernandez's apartment could be anywhere in the megatower~~, and they didn't know its number~~. Sanjuro suggested going around and knocking on doors until they found him, but Pell decided on a more elegant solution. She called once again upon her water spirit; vapor ~~rose~~ from the cracks in the concrete, ~~cooling~~ and ~~forming into a swirling body. She~~ held up a picture of Hernandez~~, an~~ unimpressive elf in a severe mid-life crisis. The spirit gazed sightlessly at Hernandez's greasy fauxhawk, and set off towards the megabuilding.

Sanjuro suggested going around and knocking on doors until they found him, but Pell decided on a more elegant solution. She called once again upon her water spirit, its vapor rising from the cracks in the concrete, and held up a picture of Hernandez; a thoroughly unimpressive elf in a severe mid-life crisis. The spirit gazed for a moment, sightlessly, upon Hernandez's Urban Brawl shirt and greasy fauxhawk. With a faint hissing sound, it dissipated and set off towards the megabuilding.

	As Pell ~~commanded her~~ spirit, the rest of the team set about solving their second problem~~. The~~ megatower's apartments were ~~fitted~~ with break-in alarms~~. If~~ they ~~didn~~'t ~~want to get security called down~~ on them, ~~they~~ would ~~need~~ to ~~bypass~~ the ~~lock on Hernandez~~'s ~~door~~.		As Pell's spirit searched, the rest of the team set about solving their second problem: the megatower's security. The apartments were equipped with break-in alarms, and they guessed that Hernandez wouldn't be too keen on letting them in. Scrappeny called up one of her contacts, hoping to procure a shape-shifting jacket for a pizzaman disguise, but was informed that it would take several days to ship. Plan B, then. As the best talker of the three Fed Up smoothed his beard and set off towards the building office, Sanjuro in tow, hoping to figure out the code for the room's lock. Scrappeny stayed outside to keep the car running, just in case.
	~~==The Run==~~

			== The Run ==
			Megatower 4 was built around a massive, open shaft, similar to a concrete chimney. Elevators of varying quality (mostly poor) whizzed up and down the walls; at the bottom of the shaft lay a bustling market. The air was filled with the smell of street food and the sound of vendors hawking their bootleg wares. The building's office was at the end of this market, plastered in banners advertising a whole 20 nuyen discount on your first month's rent. Sanjuro waited outside, acting as subtle as a a troll in a samurai outfit can, while Fed Up strode through the door.
