Summary
Hez-kukra contacts Thunder regarding a job with Seattle Software and Special Investigations which needs to recover medical supplies at the harbor in Tacoma. This is a two-person job, so Thunder brings Hound along. At the harbor, the desired cargo is guarded by Moonlight Thorns, including a sniper and a spirit. The stealth skills of Hound in combination with Thunders powers make a successful surprise attack possible. After disabling the guards, Hound and Thunder drive the truck with the supplies back to Software and Special Investigations.
Background
Seattle Software and Special Investigations (3SI) runs a secret operation which supplies hospitals for infected and street hospitals with necessary supplies which 3SI steals from very rich sources. The last shipment they stole was recovered by the elite assassins of Moonlight Thorns and is currently in the Tacoma Harbor, expected to be shipped to its original destination shortly. The street clinics need the supplies, so WRN3 (Wrenn) and Ghostwire contact Hez-kukra to find two runners who can help recover the supplies.
The Meet
Thunder and Hound receive the address to 3SI from Hez-Kukra and are asked that only Thunder attend the meet with Wrenn and Ghostwire. They explain to Thunder that they need to recover goods they had stolen which later was confiscated by Moonlight Thorns. Obviously, Wrenn and Ghostwire are great at tracking and editing shipping bills on other organiyation's servers, so Thunder suggests a trade: He'll do the job in exchange for help to get rid of the bounty UCAS recently placed on him. Hound will still need regular compensation. Deal!
The Plan
The supply boxes are tagged with location-transmitters which indicate that they are in the Harbor. The plan is to go there and scope out the surroundings and find out how heavy the security is, to the decide how to re-possess the boxes.
The Run
The Boxes are all loaded on one truck. The runners observe that the truck and the area around it is heavily guarded by 5 Moonlight Thorns assassins and a fire spirit. Going loud seems like a dangerous option, so the runners decide to go stealth and then surprise-attack. Preparations include casting improved invisibility and the aid of a spirit which conceals the runners further. Hound, Thunder, and the Spirit of Water all zoom in on one target each for the first strike of the surprise attack which is a success. The remaining opposing forces defend with grenades against their invisible opponents, but it doesn't take long until all opposition is stunned-out, except for one guard who surrenders and gives up the key card to the truck with the supplies. Hound scares the guard at the exit and the runners have a safe ride to 3SI, Wrenn and Ghostwire who are thankful for a job well done and the much needed supplies.
Aftermath
Wrenn and Ghostwire modify the court files about Thunder and set the records straight, so that Thunder is no longer desired by the Authorities.

Game Quotes
Player After Action Reports (AARs)
Thunder I can't beleive I forgot to increase my reflexes before we got into action. That's the second time that happened. It better not become a habit. Luckily the team was tight. Hound and the Water Spirit worked so well that my mess-up didn't cause any significant problems. The people at S3I seem like nice people. I hope to get a chance to know them and their operation better. Seems like a cause worthy of support at first glance. I'll let Hez-kukra know about that.
