Awaiting the return of [[Informer]], [[Black Samurai]] calls up [[Samsara]], asking her to drop off her Uncle's sword.

			===[[Samsara]]===
			I still don't know what to think about all this stuff, with Renraku and revenge... I don't think it's what Vati would have wanted. Frag... what a mess. Damn Ancients too, I should have picked a smarter place to meet up. I'll need to make sure to send them some protection money to keep my family safe while they find a new place to live. Doesn't feel right paying a rival gang, but I know they'd never even consider leaving Tarislar for Ghaz's community.

			Black Samurai though... I'm not sure what to think of him. He's angry all the time, and rightly so after what happened to his uncle - which I'm responsible for after taking that sword from him. I know he wanted it back, was probably ready to take it from me - and it's not like I could have stopped him really without the hand - but thankfully he didn't push. It wouldn't have been right, to give it to him just to murder that woman. Doesn't strike me as particularly honorable. Also should have smacked him just for hitting on Juliette, but... well, he's going through his own drek. Hopefully he'll be okay.

			Arriving well before his mark, [[Black Samurai]] surveys the restaurant's parking lot. Four cameras, one at each corner, pan and sweep the lot. Blind spots exist below each camera, and along the walls directly between them. He heads back to his car, swaps into runner gear, and parkours to the top of the building beside the restaurant and pops betameth before counting every car that drives past until his target arrives.

			When her cars pulls into the lot and she gets out, he takes kami, before leaping down, impaling her in a single strike from the roof. Before one guard can react, [[Black Samurai]] slices him, knocking him down and out of the battle. The second guard--who caught sight of him mid leap--fared far better. The two parried and exchanged swords for several seconds before [[Black Samurai\|Akira]] asked him to run away. The bodyguard refused, and [[Black Samurai]] struck him down. With the hard drive retrieved from the mark, [[Black Samurai\|Akira]] stealthily returned to his car and brought the item back to [[Cecelia Cross]].

	While eating with his sister, Finn, [[Black Samurai\|Akira]] receives a call from a sparkly avatar asking him to come down to E-~~vue~~		While eating with his sister, Finn, [[Black Samurai\|Akira]] receives a call from a sparkly avatar asking him to come down to E-Vue as soon as possible; he pays, apologizes, and heads out. After arriving, [[Black Samurai]] waits in line like a normal person before being admitted to the club. He finds [[Alexander-James Brodrick Johnson III\|Brody J]] crowd surfing while asleep, and--surprised to be working for another J--is requested to a private booth by one [[Cecelia Cross]]. He waits for her to finish working in AR, and is given a dossier on Noriko Ito, a Renraku employee who runs several facilities around Seattle. [[Cecelia Cross\|Cecelia]] lets [[Black Samurai]] know that she was involved with his uncle's death, and that she wants a hard drive the woman is carrying. In exchange, [[Black Samurai\|Akira]] could get his revenge.

	~~==The Plan==~~		Already having the dossier in hand, [[Black Samurai\|Akira]] was confused as to why he'd return the hard drive to the woman, as she had offered no compensation. [[Cecelia Cross\|Cecelia]] noted that she was looking for quiet, competent runners for a bigger upcoming job and--if he completed this task for her--she'd agree to subsidize some hardware improvements on his behalf.

			==The Stakeout==
			Having read the dossier and deciding not to track down the woman at work--which would be crawling with many, many Renraku agents--[[Black Samurai]] first looked over her downtown home. Leaning against a nearby building and "checking his commlink", he searched the matrix for nearby wireless devices and attempted to map the cameras, but the number of devices was extremely overwhelming. It quickly became clear that he would be unable to make a move on her near her apartment without immediate repercussions unless he executed perfectly.
