Summary
The Red Vory are in control of a dock in Tacoma. A rival of theirs wants to take it over. Runners ensure this outcome using gunfire, magic LSD in a bottle cranked up to a solid 11, and a good few lies.
Background
With gang wars breaking out all across the streets of Seattle, the White Vory seek to claim a piece of territory belonging to the Red Vory - a dock located in a Tacoma B zone. One of their members hires a group of runners, one of which being her underling, to do this for them.
The Meet
With each runner given a call by their fixer for a job, they arrive to a place in the western area of Renton, nearing the border of Downtown. An initial look would deem it abandoned, yet after a minute or two a heavily augmented woman steps out to greet them. Cutting right to the point, there is a dock in Tacoma that belongs to the Red Vory. It's in a public area, nearing an AA zone. She doesn't care how the group does it, but she wants the place emptied or weak and distracted enough that she and hers can take it over. The payment is 10k nuyen, as well as augments, drugs, and gear.
The gang of runners, speaking amongst themselves in DNI, note how vague the job is as well as the information, added on top their concerns over the relatively low payment. They want to negotiate, all except Cleaner Cleaner. Discussing it further, they eventually come to the conclusion to not haggle, which when they accept the job appears to surprise the Johnson. With that, they depart and make for preparations - notably Saladin creating a number of potions and summoning an allied spirit. The rest call contacts, and sharing info gained they gain a map of the dock and learn of a name: Zmei. Not the literal dragon in Russia, but some Red Vory ganger using the name. Supposedly he is former Spetsnaz, and was discharged for being too violent and cruel for them. He's overlooking the dock, and serving as its lynchpin.
As the runners disembark, one, Cleaner Cleaner, enters a quick and quiet private DNI chat with the Johnson...
The Plan
Since this Zmei is such an important figure on the dock, the crew decides to look into the man and see if they can find a weakness of his to exploit. Reportedly he travels to a couple bars in the area, one being Mate-arrr-ix and the other Sky High. The group splits up, and at Mate-arrr-ix able to uncover that Zmei had a dalliance with an oni named Yukina, and as he became clingy she blew him off. Meanwhile, she is at Sky High trying to stay away from him as best she can, worried over the possibility of him coming for her neck sometime during the large gang war. Meeting back up and sharing this information, Saladin has a chat with her, and after it was able to get what he needed to craft a convincing forgery, enough to potentially send him back to Russia.
After that, they (largely Cleaner Cleaner and Intercession) would go through and annihilate the rest of the Red Vory in the area, using a connection Getaway was able to pull to delay Knight Errant's response.
The Run
With plan concocted and preparations finished, Saladin and Intercession walk up to the docks, with Cleaner Cleaner sneaking off to the side nearby and Getaway safely parked a block away using a flyspy to get a bird's eye view of the place. A Red Vory ganger is at the front, and upon spotting Saladin and Intercession ask them to turn away. Instead, Saladin says he needs to meet with Zmei to hand him a package. After a moment, the ganger steps aside, telling them to head to the building deeper in. At said building, the 'dragon' meets them, and with a mix of frustration and curiosity asks what they need to hand to him.
