Summary
The Runners are hired in the Matrix by Green Lucifer to kidnap three Black Lodge members and collect Pay Data if necessary. They encounter some drones and manage to capture two of the members. However, the third member is able to escape.
Background
The master shedim who occupies the body of Sharon works his way through the ranks of the Black Lodge, trying to fill as many members as possible with his shedims. He poses as Green Lucifer on the Shadow Haven network to hire some runners to launch a stealth operation against three members of the Black Lodge. If anyone follows up, it will look like the Ancients ordered the attack and Shedim Charon set everything in motion to free the members, who of course are now hosts to Shedim. Since Master Shedim is very cautious, he has some of his subordinates watch the runners in astral space at a safe distance.
The Meet
The meeting will be held in the Matrix on the Shadow Haven host. A Green Devil (supposedly the leader of the Ancients) appears as J. The runners are given the task of kidnapping three members of the Black Lodge and securing Pay Data. The members are supposed to be alive because the Ancients want to find more elf haters. After some negotiation, it is agreed that each kidnapped member and the pay data will be rewarded with 7,000 Nuyen each. The J provides information about the meeting of the three members as well as the location - he also mentions an automatic defense with drones. Everything else the runners must find out themselves.
