Summary

Mr. Johnson is looking for retribution. A corporate rival took a swing at embarrassing him socially and now Mr. Johnson looks to swing back. Unfortunately his rival has left on an extended leave from the corp, so Mr. Johnson wants a team to find out where he is in the most straightforward way possible: find his also-gone-to-ground executive assistant. Find him and bring him back (preferably alive.)

Background

Mr. Johnson is Charles Diallo, a fast-riser at Federated-Boeing. His orkish appearance and his humble origins have made him enemies amongst the blue bloods and silver spoon crowd at his corporation. His recent promotion to a highly coveted Senior Vice President role was a breaking point for a rival, who tried to ruin his daughter’s birthday party. A man of disproportionate responses, Diallo is seeking blood and needs a team to help him find it.

The Meet

The team meets Mr. Johnson on the Matrix, in a seemingly random digital location. Mr. Johnson outlines what he needs and the team agrees to take the run. Ka$hious is aggressive and highly skilled in her negotiations with Mr. Johnson who ultimately agrees to double his original payment to each runner. He gives the team the name of the executive assistant he needs tracked down “Rohit Patel” and tells them what little he knows about him: he’s a nature lover.

The Plan

Ka$hious and Sizzles both set out in different directions to find out where Rohit might have gone. Sizzles snoops around Fed-Boeing corners of the Matrix looking for any public purchases of travel packages, while Ka$hious works her giantess social magic in a physical boutique travel agency (Wanderlust, now a Horizon property.) She discovers that Rohit had indeed contacted them but was unable to purchase the package he wanted as his desired location (Relais & Châteaux Sonora Island) was outside of Horizons domain. Sizzles discovers that Rohit has booked a honeymoon suite at the same island.

The team is able to convince Mr. Johnson to lend them access surreptitiously to co-workers fancy boat and then the team prepares to head to the island. The plan is to purchase a package for Ka$hious and send her in as a guest to social engineer her way to the target, then convince him to come out to the boat to be extracted and brought back to Seattle. She suggests they come to the Island as her attendants but they decide to stay on the boat as Matrix/Magic/Muscle backup in case things go sideways.

The Run

Ka$hious and the team arrive in the clear waters and fresh air of Vancouver, and dock at the island. Ka$hious enters and begins schmoozing with the rich folk on vacation there. Eventually she befriends Rohit’s boyfriend, Manmeet, and uses him to eventually lure them down after a day to the dock. In the meantime, bypassing security by sending in just the face, the rest of the team fish and drink beer. When Ka$hious brings the nervous Rohit and his naive boyfriend down to the dock Thunder correctly worries that Rohit might recognize the boat as belonging to a coworker. When he does, Ka$hious quietly intimidates him (so effectively that he urinates himself) and urges the two onboard.

Once on, the rest of the team pretend to be servants for Ka$hious: Sizzles serves prosecco while Thunder is done up, with Chameleon’s disguise skills, to look like a clean-cut executive security specialist. Manmeet suspects nothing as they sail back to Seattle. Rohit is deftly interrogated by the team and spills the beans that he went on a honeymoon because he thought his (now former?) boss was going to have him killed, like he’d put a hit out on the team’s Johnson. Realizing their employer was in danger they sent word about the Turkish hit team on its way to Seattle, and when they returned to the dock there was driverless car with their remainder of their fee in the back. Rohit and Manmeet entered the car, with Manmeet cheerfully exchanging comm numbers with Ka$hious and waving goodbye.

Aftermath

Paid up in full, the team wonders what has happened (or might happen soon) to their now-former employer.
