	The runners were given a flight out to the installation, reviewing the security footage on the way, finding no visible trace save for some sand disturbed by someone invisible.

The runners were given a flight out to the installation, reviewing the security footage on the way, finding no visible trace save for some sand disturbed by someone invisible. After arriving, they interviewed various witnesses, one who was near to a disappeared individual reporting that all sound cut out before their companion was snatched without a trace.

	Calling Ms. Martella for employee records, they determined that no trolls had disappeared, so evidently something was dragging them off. Using the Search spirit power on a dead employee's picture, they found a corpse buried in a sand dune. An autopsy determined it to be exsanguinated, and Neijing easily recognised the marks of a vampire's teeth, with Chersky rather discombobulated at the, ah, source of this knowledge. Putting this together with the cutting out of sound, Neijing determined that a banshee was the culprit, and a powerful one to have developed that power.

			Talking to security guards was floated, but dismissed given the possibility of the vampire being a mind mage.

Given this clue, the runners planned an ambush on the adept. Neijing entombing herself in the sands beneath her patrol route and Chersky hanging around on the astral to Assense. Nothing untoward of her was discovered astrally, though she did notice Chersky's astral form. Neijing then burst from the sands and Fedaykin'd her with stick and shock, casually planting the shot home despite combat sense's warning.

			She was tested with silver and had none of the reaction exhibited by banshees, and also had a great deal of bite scars on her neck. So it was determined her missing girlfriend was the banshee, who'd evidently disappeared off into the wilderness to avoid detection.

			Instead of hunting her down, Neijing managed to - via the tied up girlfriend on a commlink - convince the banshee to go to a particular location in the wilderness (thanks to a convincing portrayal of the threat Neijing could pose to even a strong mage), there to be nonlethally disabled via Neijing and brought to Tempest for dealing with the Essence drain addiction.

	==Aftermath==		==Aftermath==

			The disabling went without a hitch, Neijing reported to Ms. Martella that the problem was 'dealt with', and the couple were shipped to CalFree, where Neijing talked with them and offered Tempest's commcode. The banshee accepted it, and Tempest, being Tempest, adopted her.

			Ms. Martella was satisfied with the solution, not knowing the 'problem' was alive but contained, and the runners got paid.

	Returning to the compound, the runners used the fact that a banshee could not conceal their awakened nature for long to narrow the suspect pool down to Awakened elves. Of the roughly hundred staff, eight alive and two missing were elves, two awakened among those remaining (a cottagecore parabotanist and a goth security adept) and one awakened among the first to go missing (a security mysad who was dating the goth security adept).		Returning to the compound, the runners used the fact that a banshee could not conceal their awakened nature for long to narrow the suspect pool down to Awakened elves. Of the roughly hundred staff, eight alive and two missing were elves, two awakened among those remaining (a cottagecore parabotanist and a goth security adept) and one awakened among the first to go missing (a security mysad who was dating the goth security adept). Matrix searches on the two remaining gathered no obvious changes in their past that would indicate vampiric turning, though it was learned that both were lesbians. The parabotanist arrived roughly when the disappearances started, and the adept arrived some time before.
