Summary
The ShadowHaven team euthanized their extraction target after convincing the Johnson that the target had already been irreversibly possessed by an insect spirit.
Background
Waspkeeper was recently on a run inside an Ares building that went a little south and her team had to blow a hole in the building to make their escape. On their way out, she saw an old friend from when she worked in Ares. She didn't have a chance to bring him along with her escape, so she wants to hire a team to extract him.
The Meet
The Johnson is Waspkeeper, a fellow shadowrunner who used to be part of Ares Macrotechnology's Firewatch and now wants to extract a friend she recently saw inside an Ares building in Downtown Seattle while one a run of her own. The meet occurs in a dingy bar in Touristville where she is holed up in between her own runs.
The Run
Legwork
Scrabble starts looking in the local Ares host for employee records on the extraction target, but the nested data host was too tough and Scrabble decided discretion was the better part of valor. At Nora Inu's suggestion, Scrabble hacks into the target's P2.1 profile and is able to make a complete copy before getting into too much trouble.
After going through all the data in the profile, the team finds the following:
- The technician appeared to live as a perfectly normal employee and human being until about six months ago.
- According to some private messages, the technician was selected for a special two-week training in Ares' Detroit headquarters.
- Immediately upon his return from that training, his activity drastically changed. For the past six months, his posts became less frequent, sounded stilted and sanitized, and seemed to focus mostly on expressing unity and loyalty to a higher organization.
- There is a personal commlink attached to the profile, and that commlink appears to still be active.
Scrabble was able to trace the commlink back to the building from Waspkeeper's earlier run and the team decided to head Downtown for a closer look.
Insertion
Dandy, Nora Inu, and Slink decide to street race each other just to see who can get to the hole-y Ares building first. They quickly attract Knight Errant's attention, though each managed to break away from the pursuit. Some just had more trouble doing so than other (DANDY!). Scrabble putt-putted along a little later, as he arranged for some burner SINs along the way (for Slink and himself).
The Ares building still has a huge gaping hole from Waspkeeper's earlier run and both the building and the surrounding grounds are literally swarming with armed Ares personnel while the hole is being patched.
Extraction
Describe how you plan to pull out of the target location, cover your tracks and get paid.
Aftermath
The extraction target may now enjoy their final rest (with the blessings of Waspkeeper), the ShadowHaven team managed to get away without incident, and whatever hive that infested Ares lost the skills of a carefully selected technician.
Oh, and Scrabble has a lot of data regarding the life, possession and death of an Ares employee to be collated and disseminated.
