==Background==
* An Exclusive FastFaxFacts Flash!


After a shootout in Touristville, an Ancients razorboy, whether through a slip up or a set up, crashed his bike into a wall. In a flash, the red and black uniforms of the pawns seemed to be all around him, and it seemed to be all over. His brother, however did not give up so easily.

The runners arrived at a crumbling parking structure, with a wide open dirt lot out front. With nearby squatters shying away, that left plenty of room for a war host of Ancients to form a semi circle around the runners. Instructions were short, free this Ancients hitman from a Lone Star convoy, and return him to us, alive. With no faces available, the runners accepted. They were given the current location of the elf and his destination, Darrington Correctional Facility, and with that, the elves sped off into the night.

The runners found a bar, and quickly formulated a plan: Akula would drive up besides the prison transport, and allow both Rabbit and Peacemaker to board it. They would pry open the hatch, retrieve the prisoner, reboard Akula's Phoenix, and they would escape.

In the morning, Akula used a wrappered Rotodrone to observe the prisoner exchange while they parked near an on ramp about 2/3s of the way between Darrington and the Touristville Precinct. The Star, instead of taking the 405 like the runners had planned, took the 5 instead. Undeterred, the runners waited for them to move along to a better intercept spot, though were forced to move due to a ticketing drone. Eventually, they took their chance near Martha Lake, with Akula accelerating so fast Rabbit managed to smash her head on the back window.

DARING RAID FREES ANCIENTS PSYCHOPATH!

A DOZEN CARS DESTROYED, WILL LONE STAR ANSWER FOR THIS?!

Seattle(FFF)-A quiet morning commute exploded into a hail of gunfire and and demolition derby as a daring raid by shadowrunners targeted a Lone Star prison transport carrying a dangerous Ancients member commenced on Highway 5 North. The Shadowrunners first arrived on the scene at nearly double the speed of the Lone Star convoy. Approaching from the right, two of the criminals leaped from their speeding vehicle onto the transport and began engaging in a battle with both the gunner and the surrounding escort cars. Out of the two escort cars, one was forced to crash by the rigger runner, while the other was peppered with bullets and was forced to stand down, and the two escorting drones were blasted out of the sky. Back on the action aboard the transport, the gunner, in a show of utter unprofessionalism, panicked and sprayed the highway with automatic fire, causing the crash of several civilian vehicles. The runners managed to wretch open the door and attack the guards within, before breaking open the back door of the transport, hoisting the gurney high, and tossing themselves and the prisoner into the open trunk of their own vehicle, now traveling at highway speeds backwards. After all the runners managed to jump into the trunk, the Phoenix spun around, and proceeded to ramp off a nearby truck's bed flying across the divide at an angle, righting itself of a nearby billboard, before landing atop a nearby parking garage before losing KE patrols in the winding streets. Can Lone Star or Knight Errant protect us when faced with such brazen opposition? Will we ever be truly safe from the companies we pay to protect us?
