The Hook
ArgleBargle is in town for a concert. Before things could get underway, all of their gear was stolen. Horizon being Horizon quickly replaced everything; there simply isn't time to find it all when big business is churning. But among the gear was an heirloom guitar passed down from Dietmar Bargle's grandfather to his father and then to him. The band would like the runners to find it and bring it back.
Background
The concert itself was widely publicized. Given that the band is from out of town, it was obvious that they would be bringing a lot of equipment with them. Evan Barnes took this as an opportunity to be his own TerraFirst! cell. He took out a loan with his father's Gladius as collateral. Then he hired runners to steal the gear before it could be moved in to the Seattle Convention Center. His plan was to get some publicity by getting the show canceled and contacting the news media so he could make his statement while threatening to detonate the band's equipment. Unfortunately he didn't consider that Horizon would simply replace everything. In that way it was lucky for him that he did get the heirloom guitar.
In order to pull of his scheme, Evan procured a fake bomb. Unbeknownst to him this fake bomb was actually a very real bomb. Green War had picked up on the operation and saw an opportunity to make a martyr. Someone who was willing to die on a small hill to make a difference. After replacing handing over the very real bomb, the Green War agent re-hired the same runner team to make sure that no do-gooders interfered with the eventual and very public explosion planned.
