			Ms. Giordano was briefed on the situation, and also on the fact that the team needed to get rid of this vehicle and its contents...now, preferably. She set up a rendezvous at the docks in Tacoma for them to hand over what they stole and receive their payment. The team briefly considered whether or not they should hand over this woman to the Mafia, who would surely kill her after interrogation, but the majority simply did not care and the rest believed her beyond redemption.

			They discreetly drove over to the meetup spot, where some of Ms. Giordano's goons were waiting with their own van to offload the goods and hand out the payment, along with the bonus. With that settled, the team dispersed to handle the implications of this job however they saw fit.

The Run

	==The Run==		==The Run==

			First, the distance investigations. Shugi's spirit was able to check out the warded and fairly standard Watcher presence over at the warehouse. Samael was able to notice how heavily reinforced the place was from the exterior, as well as noting that there was indeed a lot more activity than there should have been. Finally, Firewill noticed how...terrifying the Host inside was. It was going to be way too big for her to get into. Even with a risky physical infiltration, there was a good chance MCT set their host up to linklock and kill rather than just dissuade intrusion. So, Samael came up with another proposition: Stick a few tags on the bottom of one of those vans and see where it goes.

			GoV kept watch for Sam's hide as he snuck up on the Van during traffic, pretending to just be some rude pedestrian. It worked well enough, and he even managed to avoid getting hit by a car as he slipped out back to the sidewalk. Following the signal from the tags, the team took note of where the van seemed to be stopping: This one was heading to spots in Tacoma and Everett before heading back to the facility. The team recognized these spots as Yakuza territory, meaning the Yakuza were being supplied with whatever this was by MCT.

			Samael plotted out the final course of the plan: Stopping one of those vans somewhere they could hijack it, and then seeing what's inside. He let Ms. Giordano in on what they had found so far, and then the team got ready to hijack. Firewill got the marks she needed to steer this sucker someplace remote as Shugi's spirit iced the watcher hanging around the truck. Once the preliminary defenses were halted and Firewill was in position to stop any attempts to call for backup, GoV and Samael went out to handle the opposition as Black Sabbath kept the noncombatants safe in case of any emergencies. The fighting was going well as they had enveloped the enemy and caught them without a majority of their defenses, but a Krime Stinger nearly took out the Swordswoman as Samael tried at first to be nonlethal and...failing that, finished off the remaining guards. The only survivor was the rigger and her drones.

			The firefight was sure to garner attention, so the team quickly cleaned the site, hauled bodies into the van, and drove off with the tags inside the packages removed. Taking a peek inside as they kept an eye on possible pursuit as they escaped, the team discovered the weaponry, ware, and even experimental drones that these transports were handling. Samael immediately realized these people are preparing for war. Black Sabbath then gathered some materials for a...very rude awakening for the poor rigger they had left alive. After paralyzing her and subjecting her to excruciating pain via melting her body, the team found out that these people were, in fact, planning for some major project. The commander knew more, they kept their info on a need-to-know basis for these situations. Satisfied, Black Sabbath knocked her out for good, and the team had all they needed.
