Summary
Background
These are dark times, Runners. We have seen the future, and it is not a future we want to persist. We have need of one of the last prototypes Neonet made before they fell. We have tracked it down, and now we require a team to acquire it.
The Meet
The meet was in a Chinese restaurant in downtown, which apparently had been cleared out for the meet. The Johnson explained that they required the runners to acquire a specific prototype called the "Search Protocol 5.0" that was left behind in an abandoned Neonet black site research facility in the Atlantic. Unfortunately, MCT was also aware of the black site, and had sent a team to strip the site of anything useful.
Purkinje had been wracking her brains as to whom this Johnson could represent, and came to the conclusion that they were working for a secret organization called The Order of the Delayed Calamity, a group of primarily Awakened and Emerged individuals who's purpose was to stop, or at least delay the many apocalypses that the sixth world presented.
The Johnson offered a full set of arctic dive gear, as well as the loan of vehicles necessary for reaching the site.
Legwork
There was limited research that could be done, although Noaido examined what kind of layout they could expect from this facility, and Purkinje did some quick research, finding a record of materials that must have gone to this site, including hundreds of meters of elevator kit, a significant amount of reinforced steel, compressed plasteel panelling, and an unusual industrial rail system. The logical conclusion was that the lab was subaquatic, and that the prototype vault was on the seabed, or under it.

I finally found out about the client behind this job and the last one. The Order of the Delayed Calamity, a secretive group dedicated to the counteracting of apocalyptic threats. Among them are powerful mages and technomancers, including people who can perform augury. That must be how they wound up looking for me in vague terms. They're an honorable sort, dedicated to their cause and destroying power that could be misused. I'm glad to work with them. As for the job itself, this is the first time I've gone up against MCT directly in months. I have no pity for their black ops teams, and neither did my team mates. We killed every last one of them that we could find. I'm pretty sure a couple escaped, based on intercepted PI-TAC footage. Well, they can serve as a warning to the rest. We destroyed the rig and all the prototypes in it except for the target item. It's going to be useful in the days to come, but it pains me such a thing comes at the cost of harvested virtuakinetic cells. I can sense the suffering that went into this. We have to finish the job, or all is lost.
