Summary
The Pigeon Town Social Aid and Pleasure Club is about to run aground HARD of a CAS funded Hard Corps. Miss Hattie intervenes by sending runnners to duke it out in the street.
Background
It's been an Election year in the CAS and the new administration is pushing the law and order campaign to all the major cities, leading to governors and police departments looking for places to make a show of force.
It's also been a difficult parade season in the lower wards in the city of New Orleans and the local social aid and pleasure clubs, santaria gangs, and what remnants there are of New Orlean's original culture before the Zobop turned it on its ear is tired of being pushed to the far fringes and lower wards and banded together to throw one massive parade in the style of the fifth world second lines. A custom that has all but fallen by the wayside as the Karival Krewes became incrasingly tied to Zobop fronts.
In darkness, the secret society of Mardi Gras Indian Gangs have been growing through the sixth world, finally revealing themselves as more than an eclectic tradition, and showing a source of power that few have ever seen. Drawing the attention of an often silent Heart of the City who the characters gained the attention of.
The Meet
Miss Hattie sat, as she often does, at the park bench across the street from the Urban Pest Control offices in Redmond, inviting the characters to a bowl of ramen or some street tacos and explaining that events in her home city were looking to get out of control and be a likely confrontation between a parade and Lone Star that had been called in. She was paying them to support the organization.
The price was a little low but she did make it aware that she was able to offer some magical and vehicular oriented bonuses for success, but they needed to get their themselves and were going in relatively blind.
The Plan
The team split the arrival in New Orleans between Obsidian, Saint and Oberon taking a lifestyle based private jet, and Perdix and AGMF along with a spirit, go out ot see in an airlight glider.
Perdix did spot air traffic control over the gulf of Mexico and was unsure if it was Aztlan, CAS or League and ultimately opted to run silent the glider craft and stealth past airborne threats. This got them to New Orleans a day ahead of schedule with Saint's car having been brought over in the Private aircraft's cargo hold. Obsidian got a room at the Ritz Cartton in the French Quarter and everyone else crashed in the car, fighting varying levels of fatigue for the rest of the run.
The Run
Aftermath
Satch, one aspect of the City of New Orleans is actively being looked for by another of his Aspects, Marie. Additionally, both of them are on the radar of someone who has been looking for them for a very long time.
Lone Star will not be permitted to operate within New Orleans for some time, and the 50 SecDiv Swat Cops will never set foot in the city again, for fear on their very souls.
