Summary

Background

Gang wars in the Barrens were about as common as the sun rising in the morning. Sometimes it was over territory or imagined slights. Sometimes it was driven by those higher up on the food chain as they played with their food. And sometimes it was about honest people trying to stand up to the corruption while the corruption threatened to swallow them.

A man by the name of Mr. J was such a shield against the tidal wave of corruption in the Barrens. He had formed a gang to protect a small black of territory and get the place cleaned up - no one should be afraid of a mugging or that they were going to be subjected to rampant drug dealing in his neck of the woods. His gang made sure shops stayed stocked, drug dealers were kicked out, and in general that life felt safer. It was a small haven in an ocean of shit - unfortunately, it was attracting a lot of attention.

A woman from his past came to him for help. Well, come to him in only in the fact she beat the daylights out of two his self-appointed body guards before they had managed to contain her. Shay had had a temper that had gotten her into a lot of hot water 5 years before which had made the decision to relocate to San Francisco a lot easier. Shay's sister Kira had decided to remain behind, scraping by in the Barrens as a waitress and bar tender with big dreams of putting together enough money to get out and do something better with her life. But it was almost inevitable that Kira found herself entangled with the wrong people. It had started out nice, but the more the relationship had progressed, it had becoming something much darker. Kira had tried to leave him. He had tied her up and put guards on her.

Shay had found out. She didn't have allies in Seattle anymore and didn't want to reach out to the Runner community directly so she had twisted J's arm to do it for her. The pair had felt that they would rather pose this as a ransom extraction rather than a rescue, hoping that the money would be an incentive to get Kira out alive.
