Summary
Background
A few upstart gangers have started pirating some of Oblivion Nyx's BTLs, so he has called in his favorite chip head to take care of them.
The Meet
Frag receives a call from Oblivion Nyx who tells him that he needs them to track down some gangers who have been pirating some of his BTLs. He wants FRAG to trace their matrix personnel and delete their copies of the files.
The Plan
Frag takes some Psyche before hopping into hotsim to hack the host.
The Run
Once on the matrix, Frag hacks the host for a mark and hops in. He spots 4 personas, a patrol IC, a fault sprite, the technomancer, and the decker. He searches the host for the BTL files. He dodges the patrol IC and starts hacking the first file. He disarms the databomb and starts gaining additional marks to probe the encryption. He makes a copy of the file, and moves on to the second pirated BTL and disarms its data bomb. From there, he starts gaining marks on the file before probing the encryption, and making his own of the copy. He deletes both of the files, and starts getting ready to hack the people. He uses his matrix perception and is surprised when he discovers that one of them is running no programs. He uses his knowledge of matrix security to figure out that they're a technomancer since the matrix array doesn't fit that of a commlink.
He determines that the third persona is probably a sprite. They decide to trace the sprite's location to get the technomancer's. Frag suffers some difficulty before tracing the decker.
