Summary
The tean took a flying boat to kentucky and did furious battle with bickens (bug chickens) and an insect shaman named Charles Bickens.
Background
A mage who just wanted to live a simple life on the chicken farm was found by a fly spirit, and went insane turning the chickens on the farm into bug spirits. The butchered bug spirit chickens started showing up at the processing plant.
The Meet
The team met up with the plant manager, who showed them the grotesque meat being received. They were tasked with going to the farm in Kentucky to investigate the source of this problem. Transport was arranged, but most of the team couldn't use them due to not being able to take forbidden gear with them
The Plan
The plan was simple, smuggle themselves into the UCAS through Bilge-Rat Jones or the fixer. Find and eliminate the contaminated chickens, along with the insect shaman.
The Run
The run was less simple. Bonsai and Dandy got stopped at the border when their SIN checks had problems, though made it through okay. Bannerette, Whirlwind, and Wölfin were stuck for 4 days in a hermetically sealed compartment on Jones' boat with nothing but a mostly-functioning oxygen scrubber and a bucket for a bathroom. Bonsai and Dandy arrived ahead of time, and did 2 days of groundwork; Bonsai hacked into the security system and made a back door, and Dandy scouted around physically. When the team was assembled, they locked, loaded, and went straight in. They battled 11 bickens, bug spirits inhabiting chickens, and the insect shaman. Bullets ripped through the air (and casued some friendly fire, oops!), toxic spells whizzed by, grenades exploded, and bickens pecked at the runners. At the end, the bickens and the shaman were dead.
Aftermath
The insect shaman lodge was dismantled and the lone metahuman victim was saved from almost certain doom.

Bannerette
Insect shamans are the worst. I mean, who the hell puts bug parts in perfectly tasty chicken!? Those things were tough too, but we eventually took all of them down (after using far more ammo than expected). I managed to pull a metahuman out of the insect shaman's lodge, hopefully that makes up for that poor girl I couldn't save last time I ran against one of these monsters.

This really is the big leagues... First run, and they shipped me off to Kentucky in a smuggler's boat, in a hermetically sealed cargo container with vines growing all over the inside. Kinda weird, rather uncomfortable, and the oxygenator stopped working a good half day before we finished the trip.
