Summary

Mr. Johnson needs to run a few scans throughout the city's underground landscape, considering the delicate, unorthadox, and somewhat annoying nature of his techno-arcane device being used in the process, he needs a group of capable, and speedy shadowrunners to defend the device during these scanning periods, and rush it from location to location before its readouts become corrupted due to the odd nature of the arcano-tech used to carry these scans out.

The Plan

Shortly after the meet, the party all gathered up in M3chan1c's truck to keep the group in one place throughout the run, thanks to the gridlink system in place, they would not have to worry about back tracking if they took a different exit to leave the underground after collecting the data. (Also Heather refused to let the other runners ride on her bicycle as she pedaled for them.)
Following the short argument about the best route to take to get to each site while leaving a clear, easy route to get to the delivery site, team-A managed to make their point as one of their members pointed out that site-B was in a far-less policed portion of town, with its service entrance being right next to a highway, letting the party have far less likelihood of being pulled over and having to explain the heavily restricted armor and obnoxious numbers of explosives mounted on each member of the team, Team-B still was mildly annoyed at the decision, even if they agreed to it, though, a round of greasy soy burgers ordered by M3chan1c settled everyone's nerves and stomachs.
As their resident tech-support specialist popped back into meatspace, he showed the group a layout of the region that they would be exploring underground, his matrix-surfing managing to find the party a delightfully straightforward path directly from Site-A to Site-B through some old service tunnels, cutting out any sort of backtracking through the surface, and thanks to Gridlink, they wouldn't even have to worry about finding a ride once they left out on the other side!
As the group arrived at Site-A, things were quiet, and pitch-black, it was an old room, seeming to be some sort of industrial pumping station. After some scrounging around, Kaminari and Heather found a fuse box which could possibly restore power to the room. Thanks to some creative scavenging and jury-rigging, M3chan1c was able to bring the lights back on in the room and give his drone the party some much needed sight lines. Bulldozer's military experience came in handy as he organized the party into a diamond formation in the high-ground in the center of the room to effectively protect the scanning unit, giving each runner clear fields of fire and some much-needed distance from the likely infected hostiles they would soon run into. M3chan1c, being one for 'practical solutions' and having far less knowledge on military tactics, decided now was an excellent time to test out his new Molotov cocktails, with a neat wireless feature that allowed them to become proximity mines, he hap-haphazardly scattered the miniature infernos all throughout the pumping station, leaving the party to remain firmly planted on their high ground. Unfortunately, when the scanner was activated, something odd seemed to be affecting Heather's plant spirit, causing it a rather significant amount of distress, after talking it over with the group, she decided to send her ally off, allowing it to continue to provide the party with concealment from their enemies, but without any more services to offer, additionally, Kaminari mentioned the very real threat of a plant spirit being in a room completely laden with makeshift firebombs.
As the device started to scan, the party quietly held their positions, waiting with baited breath for the moment the enemy finally approached as M3chan1c's support-gunnery drone started to go through his combat playlist in preparation for the first sight of an attack.
