They lure out the Johnson with a fake message and shoot him dead with one of the Sombras Negras' submachineguns

Background

A promising Dwarf mechanic marries into local crime family. one of the Gangers sees he has an award winning contest car and looks to sell it for drugmoney.

The Meet

Mr. Johnson calls the Runners at 2pm and tells them to arrive at 3pm at a local customs shop for cars, some runners have difficulty arriving on time but they all make it,some annoyed.

Mr. Johnson gets insulted by Granuaile after she implies he is Mexican,but Poppet quickly calms him down with her pheromones.

They talk business and agree on a payment of 2k nuyen per person in addition to 2 shots of Jazz for every runner. The Johnson seems very apprehensive about the prize as he would barely make a profit after paying the fixers and the mechanics and then the Runners but he is motivated by his addiction to get a lot of money quickly.

The runners convince the Johnson to give them the drugs as a pre-payment which he has no objections to,but it leaves him antsy and without his fix.

The Runners assume the information given by the Johnson is complete as he tells them only where his cousin (wife of the Target) lives.

The Johnson informs them the Target is a man going by the name of Pedro Hermanez

The Plan

The runners plan to infiltrate the building with Drones then when they know who to look for, pose as corporate suits looking for the Target (Pedro) to make good on an outstanding mortage to liquidate his assets and seize his cars

The Run

The Runners seemingly immediatly dropped their original plan upon setting out,dressing in heavy gear with armour piercing bullets loaded. They did not wear facemasks,only ballistic masks on 2 of them.

Flyboy coldsimmed into a drone to accompany them.

The runners enter the building where they find a homeless man sitting on the ground. Granuaile convinced the man to tell her a bit about the "man with the expensive car" to which the homeless man quickly gave her some info on where to find him and that he is in fact a Dwarf,in exchange she gave the man some of the Jazz she was given by the Johnson. The Homeless man was estatic and hugged Granuaile

Going upstairs they run into some antagonistic orks and trolls. Poppet,with the help of Granuaile, convince the orks the car they are looking for was stolen from them and the orks offer to rough up some of the gangsters for them to which they agree.

on the third floor the Runners engage the Sombras Negras, a bunch of humans here looking quite like Mr.Johnson covered in the same Tattoos. There is also children here and women taking Jazz and drinking beer.

As they enter the cheerful chatter stops and as the orks enter the staircase with you the silence turns into worried silence.

They were nervous about people in military grade gear entering with the racist orks from downstairs. As they have a secret drug lab on the third floor,creating debased Jazz. The players try to convince the gangers that the car was stolen from them as Granuaile tried to defuse the situation by telling the Gangers the building might collapse under them if they do anything stupid,which,rolling a critical failure on her persuasion, the gangers saw as a threat,leveling their weapons on the runners.

Poppet,upon seeing the guns levelled at them flipped up her ballistic mask to take a hit of Jazz,something the other gangers saw as an offensive action,triggering combat.

The runners take a hit of jazz and beeing faster than the Gangsters,kill 2 people during their initiative turns. Granuaile taking her first hit of Jazz ever gets immediatly addicted to the stuff.

Flyboy hops from cold into hotsim and tells his drones to attack,the next couple initiative passes involve combat drones mercilessly gunning down surrendering and crying people in front of their families before Granuaile gets a chance to stop the combat.

The surrendered Gangers tell them where to find Pedro and beg for their lives. The runners shrug this off and go up to find him.where they find two locked doors in the apartment.

They pick the wrong door to unlock first, breaking it down with immense force,scaring the occupant who was a crazed military veteran who proceeds to suicide bomb under the pretense of "never catching him alive"

when they go into the other door they see a terrified dwarf man who they quickly disarmed and extorted into giving them his keys,he begs to please spare his wife,they ignore his pleas and nick his documents and keys.

Poppet decides to go back down where she sees the ork thugs bully and coerce the Sombras Negras family members into staying put, she decides to steal the ammo off the corpses of the gangers and steal a submachinegun off of one of them.

They then proceed to go to the Warehouse noted in the documents on the Dwarf's table

since they have the keys no one pays them any mind as they enter the gate slides open to a beautiful custom workshop,it is spotless and the metal equipment gleams in the sunlight,some dwarf spent days in here and it shows he poured his lifeblood into this custom car the supplies in here are enough to restock a repair shop and there is blueprints on the wall for custom modifications to his car. and in the center of it all stands a large automobile covered in a tarp.

They nick it and leave the place intact noting it would be evil to steal his stuff.

then they hatch a second plan

The Plan 2 electric boogaloo

They intend to sell the car to one of the Character's (Flyboy) Contact Mike Malone, a Connection 5 underground car dealer and mechanic.

They do however recognize that not doing the job will have some negative consequences so they also intend to brainwash the johnson using magic. In the End they decide to pin a drive by from the people they attacked on those people,pretending like they sold the car to the johnson and then the gang they robbed took revenge on the Johnson. (which...if the fixer isn't paid his cut by the Johnson he knows something is up but regadless...)

The Hit

The runners sell the car to their contact,managing a pretty good con check to convince him the Johnson screwed them out of the deal and they are selling the car to salvage the mission for some payment.

He buys it and gives them their Nuyen.

They return to Pedro where in the neighbourhood they see everyone is hiding from them,they did not wear facemasks.

going back up they see the orks have taken over the druglab

Pedro is crying in the arms of his wife Lizzie who is the cousin of the Johnson.

They tell Lizzie and Pedro about the run and sell out the Johnson to the affected party. Poppet then almost taunts the man about not returning his car even though they know where it is and how to get it back.

They offer Pedro and Lizzie to take care of the Johnson. Lizzie is worried because these people just killed her friends and family downstairs mere minutes ago. Pedro agrees tentatively out of rage.

They then hire a Z-sec taxi to take them to the Johnson

Granuaile send the Johnson a message on his commlink telling him they are arriving soon to lure him out of the Chop shop where Poppet was waiting,invisible thanks to Granuaile's magic (Force 6) where Poppet loads her gun with armour piercing bullets and shoots the man dead with one of the Krime Sprees she nicked off of one of the Sombras Negras, leaving while still invisible

Aftermath

The Fixers don't get paid for hiring out their runners and now have to contend with the reputation of hiring out loose guns to their Johnsons who will triple cross them (a really nasty reputation)

The orks take over the Sombra Negra's Jazz lab
