Summary
A group of runners get a sudden call to assist with escorting a woman on a memorial trip to collect some effects of her dearly beloved, before she leaves the city for good.
Background
About 2 or 3 years ago, a Redmond Barrens Rat met a well off SINner woman. Growing closer and closer, they were working towards something together. Even with the pressures of their environments working against them, whether corporate or criminal, they spent those years together.
And then, Outis Keifberg, lover to Penelope Farina, was gone.
She waited a year for him to come back. Waited to see if those who called him dead were wrong, even though he always tried to prepare her for this inevitability. But a year had gone by, with talks of her father marrying her off on the horizon...she was out of time. And so, she needed to handle a few things and...leave. Leave it all behind. Leave Him behind.
Retrieve his lockbox. Take one last trip to his home, now rotten and decayed. And finally settle his business with the Cutters for him. Just in case.
The Meet
Four runners were called to help discreetly take her to each of those key locations over in Redmond. Exodus, Perdix, White Thistle, and Zero. A rather rough and tumble bunch, assorted by a rather confused Hellsing who wasn't about to pry into this clearly secretive girl's business if it meant ruining the job early. The Group arrived at the Devil's Kiss in Riverton to discuss matters. There they met the woman herself, Miss Penelope Farina, in a rather slap-dash disguise and clearly not familiar with these kinds of matters. The two debriefed the team on where exactly they were going to help them, but initially the two were rather sparse on details. However, with gentle prodding from Exodus Ms. Farina disclosed some of what she was doing, as well as her identity, which Perdix did a cursory search on as the meeting continued. For assisting her in traveling around Redmond - Undetected at the borders - and helping her get through her meetings with the criminal element, they would each receive 6k nuyen, by a method discussed once the job was done.
Perdix found out that she was the daughter of a wealthy banker working out of the 52 Gold Banks Tower in Bellevue. She's in a lot of headlines but tries to be private outside of that, and she doesn't seem to have much to do in terms of the actual running of the company. However, there seemed to be some form of marriage talks on the way in the coming months, and the team presumed that had something to do with the sudden escape plans. Regardless, they agreed to assist her in her endeavor and set about planning how best to handle this trip.
The Plan
The team floated would need to ensure that border security wasn't an issue as they crossed over to Redmond and then out again, as well as make sure that the girl wasn't spotted on the trip. The plan they settled in was this:
- They would pile into Perdix's GMT Armadillo as it had the most room, armor, and a smuggling compartment to hide Ms. Farina in. - For the border checks, they would cross from Downtown into Snohomish, then Snohomish to Redmond, and finally cross south from there to Renton and finally Tacoma, where Penelope would be dropped off. - Thistle would stay in the back mostly unless things went wrong, with Exodus and Zero keeping close for the most part as Perdix kept overwatch with his drones.
