Summary

The team is hired to locate a missing supply of Ares equipment aboard a vessel commandeered by pirates and grab what they can.

Background

A few weeks back, a ship carrying Ares weaponry, drones, and other equipment was seized by pirates, who proceeded to loot what they could. Recently it docked near the border of both the SSC and Seattle upon the coastline. The gang known as the Cutters have since occupied the vessel and are looking for some special cargo aboard it. Ares wants it back.

The Meet

Being called to meet in effectively a shack with a table, a few chairs, and pizza on the table, the "D-Team" begins to walk inside before Wayfarer stops them, noticing three figures. The first, a runner named Red Ribbon, which matched the description of the woman met by the Ancients member that got away in their last mission. The situation seemed a little tense, until he noticed the another individual known as Dune Maker. A massive fan of the Desert Wars star, Wayfarer stammered over himself as the rest of the crew behind him pushed past and made their way inside. The last notable was Raytheon, the J, who attempted to calm the situation with pizza and seats. With tension negated and an autograph signed, the group sat down and began to hear the details of the mission.

A while ago, there was an AI-operated ship under Ares carrying cargo which was taken over by pirates. Looting what they could, they then moved to dock it on the border of the SSC and Seattle and leave with their pilfered gains. After doing so, word got out to the Cutters who then managed to move in before other gangs or factions could. Additionally, it seemed as though there was something special inside, though what it was was anyone's guess. The D-Team and Red Ribbon are being hired to find this special something as well as anything else of note they could get and bring it to a drop off point on Seattle's side of the water. The runners were not the only individuals involved in this, as a PMC known as Horned Bear was also contacted to aid them in their task, and were to be met on the other side of the border a few miles away from the docked ship.

Unfortunately, tension rose yet again as the group brought up their skillsets with the Dune Maker growing somewhat agitated at Oracle's ability to manipulate minds. This caused Miut to threaten the towering behemoth, causing Dune Maker to slightly respect her courage. After that, the shack was vacated and the runners decided to meet back up again where the PMC was holed up at.

The Plan

Having met up at and with the Horned Bear operatives, including their leader Ashen Hand, the collective began to formulate a plan. From what was able to be scouted or gained from camera footage, there were roughly twelve to fourteen guards on the outside, a spider somewhere on the inside, and the presence of at least one mage and two spirit. With Weevil's roadmaster being able to operate like a boat, the group would cruise up silently at an unexpected area and have Wayfarer, Ashen Hand and his small crew, Red Ribbon, and one of Oracle's spirits to climb aboard and silently neutralize as many individuals as possible while Miut squelched comms. In the event of the Cutters being alerted, Miut would geek the enemy spider while Weevil and Red Ribbon moved their drones up to assist Wayfarer, Oracle's spirit, and Ashen Hand and crew in killing the Cutters. While this happened, Miut would search the files and find the cargo and the group would, after clearing the boat, collect what can be collected and make way for a boat prepped to take them across the border. Or, in the case of the D-Team, take the roadmaster to the other side.
