Summary
Johnson is suspicious that something will happen tonight at his nightclub, being unsure of his manager and security, he hires shadowrunners as a secondary layer of defense. After some prodding in digital and meatspace, it seemed that he was correct in his assumptions, leading to a bloody nightclub shootout with the mastermind dipping out during the chaos.
Background
The Meet
The group met up at Fruitful Desires, a family restaurant with connections to a pulse-pounding nightclub the moment the sun went down. Heading in as the night-life started to pour in, they met up with Johnson, a rather neatly dressed, somewhat nerdy-looking gentleman that you'd expect to be running the simple family restaurant, and maybe some sort of website as well. He introduced himself as Tortoise and started off by explaining that he had a feeling something was going to go wrong and decided to hire a set of runners, while he wasn't sure about what could be going on, he felt that runners would be a proper response to some odd goings-on through the shop, regardless of how frightened he seemed to be at the Runners, he seemed pretty serious about protecting the customers at his club from whatever could be going on. After some negotiations and arguments about payment and setting matters up beforehand, they got a better deal on the payment for the job, as well as some products that Tortoise had connections to. At the end, the group was informed that they were to avoid any casualties or collateral damage during the night, and if any actual combat was to occur, they would be getting an additional 2,000 nuyen bonus to their pay.
The Plan
Leave cyberfang in the van, near a door in order to make a quick entrance to assist the group. Ryan spots the host running silent, yet without any security preventing anyone from entering, with a proper greeter offering premade avatars to any guests. After some poking around, the decker dropped back into meatspace, apologizing that he couldn't breach the defenses of this host, as it seemed to have been designed by a rather wild spider with a hard-on for digital security. Thanks to this, they would be flying blind save for whatever resources they would be able to bring themselves, a set of micro-cams, drones, etc. Driving off to the site, they decided to set up whatever they could to give themselves an early warning, and just watch and wait for the big one.
Orchid easily talked M3chan1c inside as a security and technical assistant, heading off to the bar to start preparing her brews, M3chan1c dipped off to speak to a rather sketchy looking attendant behind a poorly-lit bar in the corner that he'd noticed while scoping the location out in the matrix. After discussing his inventory for a moment, he was able to change the subject to Geoff, the suspicious gentleman who would be running the event that night. Apparently he had been acting strange out of nowhere, isolating himself in a backroom each night, being very unusual in the few moments he shows his face, though, as the less-socially inclined rigger pressed the issue further, he clammed back up and suggested he speak to Clarice, the floor manager of the evening.
