Summary
Looking to spread some holiday cheer into the heart of Glow City, Johnson hires some runners to deliver fresh fruit to liven some spirits, literal and metaphorical. Delivery goes smoothly, with an additional workload added by Saint Nick, until the group is ambushed in the deadly rad zone. After finishing off their attackers, the runners return for a well-deserved paycheck and radiation scrubbing.
Background
The Meet
The runners met up in a less-irradiated portion of Glow-City, decked from head to toe in the best radiation equipment they could scrounge together. The runners were presented with a woman, one M3chan1c immediately recognized as Erica Clements, whom he'd kidnapped on a previous job. With the same recognition crossing her face, the pair had a bit of a stare off before coming to terms that the previous interaction was 'just business.'
She began to explain the situation, as a part of a public outreach program, the followers of the light had been growing fresh fruit to distribute to the residents of Glow City, a series of parcels as gifts to the downtrodden people of the irradiated city. The runners were given a warning about potential hostiles in the area, by the tune of the Rusted Stilettos gang roaming the area.
After a squabble amongst the runners about whether or not to squeeze for extra nuyen for the job, the runners made a trip outside of the zone for a bit to pick up some packages from one of Pell's contacts, Saint Nick, considering the nature of the gift-giving mission, and the festive-themed outfits the runners were passed in preparation for the occasion, the runners decided it was rather fitting.
The Plan
Heavy Ordinance charted an efficient route to deliver all of the packages in good time while the other runners got to work preparing the packages so they could have a faster delivery time. Activating the stealth technology on the Rigger Van, M3chan1c got to work driving back into glow city, the runners ready to get to work.
Driving along through the city, the runners had a rather easy time of driving around, the radiation shielding of the van doing its part in preventing the runners from soaking in as many rads from the environment, and the stealth technology preventing them from being spotted by the hostile gangs in the area.
Passing from the moderately irradiated regions into the harsher climates of the glowing neighborhood, Pell began to notice far more irradiated and mutated members of society in the area, after some thought, she discovered this was a region with a rather plentiful population of toxic mages. Though, the runners were able to get through the region safely enough, but, as M3chan1c rolled up to the edge of the deadly zone, he started to finally feel the effects of the region affecting him, nausea starting to kick in, which was immediately lessened by a quick dose of Ondansetron from Pell.
Explaining that he wasn't able to handle going on much further in the zone, M3chan1c sent one of his drones out with Pell to join her on her journey into the later zones, buffeted by her anti-radiation spells and natural resistance. After making a few deliveries to the more severely afflicted members of Rad-City's populace, Pell and M3chan1c spotted a small gang of suspicious individuals approaching with weapons in hand, It seemed like it was time for a fight.
