Summary
Ez to get a potential new job at Ares has to investigate a haunted house and prove his merit's as a runner.
Background
Ez, being wanted and jobless has struggled to find work and runs to help out live his every day to day life. But a mysterious job offer plans to fix that, and get the target off of his back.
The Meet
Whilst laying about at home, Ez's commlink was hacked with a mysterious figure on the other line stating to meet the individual outside a McHughe's not too far away, stating an opportunity awaited him. Ez not too long after agreed to meet the mysterious individual, making his way through the rainy Seattle night. Once there, Ez found himself confronted by a cloaked individual in a red coat with a covered face introducing himself as Ray. Ray then revealed he was working for a boss that showed interest in Ez. Also that said boss could offer him both a way out of his current predicament as a wanted man and a job at Ares once again. Also that Ray was to give him an assignment as a form of test/interview and that if he did well there would be a follow up with likely the boss man himself. Seeing no real downside to this as well as the slight threat of a mercenary looming over a man worth 50k nuyen, Ez agreed to head off towards his "interview." The red cloaked man disappearing as soon as attention was not on him directly.
The Plan
All that was given to Ez was the details that a client wanted a specific mansion in the northern area of Bellevue, the mansion in question long since run down and that it may very likely be haunted due to "ghost sightings." Said sightings and other factors preventing the place from being repaired/renovated. Also the client that wanted the mansion was apparently "on the down low" so the need of a runner was warranted. Summoning a spirit to investigate the mansion, the spirit returned with bad vibes and a warning that the place had a residual bad aura to it. Not deterred by this information Ez pressed on through the cryptic place. Investigating the manor Ez was immediately met with a ward that required his spirit to stay behind. A background count of 2 greeting him the second he happened to walk through the door/barrier. The place dusty, worn down, and broken. But strangely... antique. Like a house ripped straight out of the fifth world. Paintings lining the walls and most information being written on paper as opposed to on a comm or via the matrix. Weird and old fashioned. With this in mind Ez continued throughout the mansion. Being cautious as mysterious sounds echoed through the halls. Unable to enter a central room in the building but still thoroughly investigating the rest of it to the best of his abilities, figuring out that someone was currently residing in this place despite its worn down state. Though... unfortunately, despite Ez's thorough investigation, they found HIM first.
The Run
Walking into the kitchen Ez combatted a spirit and its infected ghoul summoner in combat. Ez's spirit sleazing through the barrier rapidly to join the fray. Despite being physically outmatched Ez and his spirit put up a good fight against the ghoul and their spirit. But things were turning against Ez as he hanged on barely to life with his spirit gone. But with one solid haymaker with a shockglove to the woman's face she went down and her spirit with her.
Aftermath
Dragging the woman's body to the backyard with much effort, he called a fellow contact for magic cuffs to inhibit her magical usage. Ray then calling him to inform Ez while a tiny bit slow and sloppy, he performed well enough to warrant some pay to help with his situation and that a follow up was likely in store. Oh, and also KE was on their way to his location right now. Running away before the cops could figure out his involvement Ez made his way back home with another run well performed under his belt with high hopes for the future ahead.
