Summary
A relatively smooth job robin hooding by hitting a yakuza shipment of weapons and medicine to redistribute to the people of Seattle. There were some close calls, but overall it was an incredibly smooth job.
Background
Big Donny is a relatively small time fixer who keeps an eye on a lot of the gang and syndicate activity in Seattle. He's all in on Redmond, and Redmond can always use some assistance. Now, his little birdies gave him the clue in that deeper in Yakuza territory over in Tacoma, things get kinda lax, being so entrenched behind their hands. And given the brewing of tension between the syndicates and the gangs of Seattle, everyone preparing to get crazy, there were a lot of shipments of what Redmond residents need: ways of keeping themselves safe and healthy. While it was too risky to send one of his own to intercept that shipment, maybe some deniable assets could do the trick...
The Meet
Big Donny called the runners in to the Daze, a commonly known runner bar where there wasn't going to be some kind of issue of people thinking this was a trap or anything, The runners filtered in one by one. Devil, the ares experiment and operative was first, trying to blend in but still having some...stiffness to her that made her feel like a cop. Donny didn't like that. Colcannon came in after, the fomorian feeling much more like your classic Redmond runner or thug and feeling much more at ease in the place. The Goddess of Victory came in with her traditional outfit which...earned her a few stares from both the niche fans and the people just not used to seeing that kind of outfit in these parts. And finally, Twitch Fox, formal but informal at once and smiling all the while, blended in just fine.
They sat with Big Donny, who was snacking on nachos and a little suspicious of the Devil, awaiting them and letting them introduce yourselves before giving a brief overview of the job: the location of the docks, the 2 to 3 hour window the group was working with, and the drop off point. Now, Big D's crew wasn't exactly filled with world beaters, they wouldn't be able to handle heat from the Yakuza or KE, so the team couldn't bring that heat to the spot. The original offering was 8k a head, but Devil and Twitch Fox managed to negotiate that to 10k and an arrangement to get some ammo, weapons, and drugs from some vendors Big D knew.
With that settled, the big guy made his way out and left the crew to handle planning.
The Plan
Devil recognized pretty quickly just from the description that the spot they were hitting was a Yak spot, and used her contacts to get a word in on the route that the shipment would probably use - an inland travel down the coastline, probably staying near Yakuza territory as they go eastwards. Where exactly East? hard to say. The team decided to get a move on down to the spot since time was wasting, and do some physical investigation to get a visual on the truck being used and hopefully ID the vehicle they wanted so they could ambush it down the route. the Goddess and Colcannon could get the idea of the kind of lower level security the yakuza would have for this simple shipment and how they probably had smaller arms but maybe some nasty ammo on them. Automatics, blades, probably heavily wared. The Goddess would have to be concealed until the team got into position being deeply despised for her "prior work", but at the very least she could use some help from Devil keeping herself hidden and doing recon.
The two of them ID'd the vehicle, the kind of gear the goons were using, and with a scan managed to get the info on what exactly was being transported: those weapons and medical supplies that Big D wanted to give to his people and the Streets of Redmond. With that, Devil's ally Annabelle was able to pinpoint a much more thorough route for the team to hit, and with that settled, they laid out the groundwork for their ambush.
Wait for the vehicle to stop at a light as it tried to blend in, hit them where it hurts by focusing the driver, kill them all, get somewhere to swap vehicles, and then make it to the drop off point. Simple!
