Summary

Background

The Meet

Minerva Kotomine contacts Trauma and Trades while Nearl heads up to Touristville to meet up with Martha, the prospective employer. After Minerva tells Trades that Trauma will be working the job with her, Trades sends a comm message over to ask if she needs a car pool up to touristville. Trauma responds in the affirmative and Trades heads over in her Armadillo to pick her up. In the meantime, Nearl arrives and starts talking to Martha before the conversation heads inside so Nearl can avoid the sun's deadly rays. Martha made a sudden trip to Hawaii, but forgot to secure her expensive 100k necklace. When she returned, she found her house ransacked, her necklace stolen, and cat taken. After a while of drinking tea and gathering more information the J springs the million nuyen question, "Nearl may I ask you a question? Why are you red." Nearl quickly deflects with an answer about sunburn. Martha retaliates with an offer of SPF 9000 sunscreen.

The Plan

Once Trauma and Trades arrive, Trauma starts assenssing the premises while she and Trades search for the others. While Trauma passes through the main room, she spots an astrally active collar. She handles it while being careful to avoid contaminating it with her own astral signature. Once the collar is safely relocated, Nearl and Trauma begin inspecting it while Trades is granted access to Martha's host in order to review security camera footage. She's able to find a direction for the team to begin exploring before they encounter a group of beast spirits lounging in the street on the astral. Trauma attempts to get one of the spirits to provide assistance while Trades performs a wild summoning. She attempts to align her aura with that of one seeking a bargain. To make a deal. She manages to draw the attention of a spirit who offers to guide the team to where the missing cat has gone
The team loads into their vehicles and follow the wild spirit through the city until they arrive at an apartment complex. The spirit guides them to a door, but it warns the team about astrally projecting into the room. Trades sends her flyspy around to check the building for windows, and she discovers that there is a balcony to the apartment. Using her laser microphone she is able to hear the occupant talking to someone named Rex while they smoke. Trades recalls her flyspy and quickly cracks their commlink in order to see what information she can dig up. She quickly determines that the SAMA was responsible for the break-in, and that the cat, the necklace, and Ash, Martha's grandchild, are inside the apartment. The team stacks up in the hallway outside the door while Trades sneaks her Directionssekretar onto the balcony. She downloads an unarmed combat skillsoft in preparation for the possibility that she might need to intercept Ash as they flee.
