Summary
As Seattle Software and Special Investigations opens its doors to start helping runners team up, Kate Markson and the armory division offers runners a chance to try out some weapons in their armory.
Background
S3I is the group that helped fight off the N-51 who tried to stop Farraday's clinic. After licking their wounds, they've opened their doors to help form new connections.
The Run
The runners meet at S3I's headquarters in downtown. Since they all came from downtown, it was easy enough for folks to arrive. Once inside, they all checked in with reception, who introduced them to Kate Markson. Kate showed the runners inside and offered a short history of S3I, and their recent conflict with the N-51.
The runners Omen, Chameleon and Krabbe were all interested in finding out more about Kate and S3I, especially given how many seemed suspicious of the nature of the option. Kate expressed that S3I wants to help those who are overlooked and underserved. Her term in the UCAS showed her that working with the military wasn't the right way to do so.
Yet, after a discussion, the team arrived at the armory and met Mischief, Mayhem, and Jules Le Fleur. The team seemed excited to have new folks around, and Mischief even had a nerdgasm when seeing that Krabbe was a full cyborg. After being told to calm down, Mischief settled down and the team got suited up for the shooting range. Chameleon took an Ak-97, and Omen took an Auto Assault 16.
Once in the range, the team spent a solid 30 minutes firing after receiving weapons and a rundown on range safety from Kate. The team are able to, with advice from Kate, improve their firing patterns at least a bit. Then, the subject of the obstacle course came up. Being challenged to beat Aleks Skliar's time of 1.55 seconds. Krabbe would come in with a time of 12 seconds, Chameleon in with 6 seconds, and Omen with 3 seconds.
Afterwards, the team enjoyed a break of snacks and returning the gear, continuing to chat with Kate. Kate expressed that S3I would want them to continue to work with them, but ultimately none decided to take a hiring package.
Aftermath
With the day being done, most of the runners headed home except for Omen, who could not resist the urge to ask to keep a sword she had been lent. The armory staff - Mischief - offered to sell it to her at cost, as it seemed like she had bonded with it. Afterwards, Kate said goodbye to the runners and stayed to finish up her tasks for the evening.
