Background
After a shootout in Touristville, an Ancients razorboy, whether through a slip up or a set up, crashed his bike into a wall. In a flash, the red and black uniforms of the pawns seemed to be all around him, and it seemed to be all over. His brother, however did not give up so easily.
Meet
The runners arrived at a crumbling parking structure, with a wide open dirt lot out front. With nearby squatters shying away, that left plenty of room for a war host of Ancients to form a semi circle around the runners. Instructions were short, free this Ancients hitman from a Lone Star convoy, and return him to us, alive. With no faces available, the runners accepted. They were given the current location of the elf and his destination, Darrington Correctional Facility, and with that, the elves sped off into the night.
Run
The runners found a bar, and quickly formulated a plan: Akula would drive up besides the prison transport, and allow both Rabbit and Peacemaker to board it. They would pry open the hatch, retrieve the prisoner, reboard Akula's Phoenix, and they would escape.
In the morning, Akula used a wrappered Rotodrone to observe the prisoner exchange while they parked near an on ramp about 2/3s of the way between Darrington and the Touristville Precinct. The Star, instead of taking the 405 like the runners had planned, took the 5 instead. Undeterred, the runners waited for them to move along to a better intercept spot, though were forced to move due to a ticketing drone. Eventually, they took their chance near Martha Lake, with Akula accelerating so fast Rabbit managed to smash her head on the back window.
Approaching the convoy at a much higher speed, Akula was able to sneak within 10 meters of the main prison transport before the Star took notice.
