Summary

The runner team is contacted to help the clinic acquire a security team. There are complications, and the runners are sent to figure things out.

Background

See And Love You Shall Find

The Meet

The runner team heads to the clinic to talk to the Dr, only to find that the one of Farraday's own was a mole for the CEU. The runner team, after deliberation, decided to end Minnie 'May' Hopkins life after the horrific realization that she had been the one to cause the loss of so much life. After a quick prayer and a harsh dressing down, they knock Hopkins out and dispose of the body. Shortly after, they found themselves in a hostage situation, as Hopkins had brought CEU operatives to the clinic with the intention of killing all the staff and patients.

The Plan

The team plan to dispose of the traitor, Minnie 'May' Hopkins, and given the hostage situation, plan to excise Dagger 1 and 2. After, they head to liberate Liam Borrinea.

The Run

After dealing with Hopkins, the team saves the clinic from the hostage situation by having pasiphae and Lingchi lure out and assault the enemy combatants. Bhop and Red Ribbon were able to neutralize a matrix threat trying to scout the clinic to check things out, but overall the team was able to protect the clinic entirely through combined effort.

After, they all decided to scope out Liam's office, finding the entire building eerily empty. On the matrix, they found the persona of CHALICE, someone who had been illusively mentioned in com chats between Hopkins, earlier. It invited Bhop to take a file that CHALICE called 'truth' but through a matrix perception found that CHALICE was loaded with the ability to link lock and apply databombs. Fearing the danger, the runner disconected.

Meanwhile, the other team thought of ways to save Liam, who was knocked out in his office, from a potential sniper and Cleric team. Unsure of how to handle the well armed people, the team decided to call Knight Errant. Moments passed and Knight Errant did not show up, and even sooner yet the enemy team bugs out, implying a connection between Knight Errant and the CEU.

Aftermath

The Runner team returns Liam and WRN3 to Farraday, and the team is paid. Farraday is heartbroken over the loss of Minnie, but their loss comes with the assurance that no more moles would be left in their company.

Lingchi

Naught can penetrate the vast void of space between us. I am unseen as a distant planet. None shall strike me, for none may see me - there is no radiant light here.
