Summary

DARKNESS FALLS ON THE SUNSHINE FREE CLINIC: FIVE CONFIRMED DEAD.

(Saturday, May 31st, 2081) Redmond, WA: Five confirmed dead and many missing after the unsanctioned raid of a secret blood sacrifice ring at the Sunshine Free Clinic on the outskirts of Touristville. The clinic, originally owned by a small company in New Orleans and now a wholly owned subsidiary of Aztechnology, had been a favorite of low-income locals in need of medical care. Doctors and nurses interviewed in the wake of the raid (and subsequent evacuation) claimed to have no knowledge of the ritual space in the clinic’s basement. "I just thought it was the morgue," said one staff member, who wished to remain anonymous. "I kinda wondered why so many people were taken down there, but, I mean, this is Redmond. A lot of people come in beyond our ability to heal." Footage of the raid leaked to the matrix showed multiple low cages filled with drugged victims, surrounding a large altar and ritual circle, and what appeared to be a blood mage in the midst of a sacrifice. "Our mage destroyed a mana barrier and then dealt with the mage," said a source within the raid. "That released a spirit that had to be dealt with. I’m just a tech guy, so I decided to check out the stairs behind us for security, and...there were seven of them. They had to be dealt with too."

The original owners could not be reached for comment. Aztechnology PR claimed outrage at the misuse of their property, but declined further official comment.

Background

News Van Dan had a lead on a free clinic in Redmond where people went in, but didn’t come out. He wanted footage breaking the story wide open, and was willing to pay handsomely for it.

The Meet

The team met NVD at a taco shack in Redmond. He waited for everyone to get settled, then laid out what he knew. "It’ll be easy," he assured us. All he wanted was footage of what was behind the disappearances. 10k nuyen for some footage. It’s never as easy as a Johnson says, though, and Riot stepped in and negotiated the price higher. The final deal was 13k nuyen, NVD as a contact, and a single spicy...spicy taco.

The Plan

Santesso, the closest thing the run had to a decker, did some matrix legwork. He discovered that the clinic had originally been in New Orleans, but was secretly purchased by Aztechnology’s R&D Division. Of the original three owners, two were very wealthy and living in Aztlan, whereas the third was...missing. He also found a set of blueprints for the clinic building. That information in hand, the team all jumped into Santesso’s van and drove to the clinic. Santesso scouted the area with drones and determined that there were eight security guards. To get an accurate current floor plan, however, or any more information, he would have to get his fly-spy inside the building. Every point of entry was closed and/or blocked, so he couldn't get inside. Riot offered to get shot to gain entry into the medical facility. The team managed to talk her down to a gentle stabbing instead. Once bleeding convincingly, Riot would walk inside with a fly-spy in her pocket. Santesso would scout out the rest of the building (including the finished basement that wasn’t on the official blueprints), while Riot would make her way into the examination rooms, get access to the back door, and open it for the rest of the team to enter.
