Summary
Sarah Snow asked the team to recover a blank-slated woman who is in the custody of a Bellevue resident named Rich Davis. She offered a hefty bonus for eliminating Davis in the process, especially if the team could make it embarrassing or look like an accident. The team stalked their target, turned a predator into prey, and saved a young woman who is unable to help herself.
Background
Sarah Snow, a Fixer and coke fiend out of downtown Seattle, has been working with Team Alpha to track down and secure blank-slated individuals who are being chipped and traded like currency. Having found a victim in Seattle, Sarah reached out to ShadowHaven to get assistance in securing her safety.
The Meet
The team converged on Neon Litez, a pop-up nightclub in Downtown. Zenith arrived an hour early to scope out the place only to find that Kenny was working as a temporary bouncer. With a little convincing, he was allowed to circumvent the line. The rest of the team arrived a bit later and--under a spell cast by Glamor, caught the eye of Kenneth to gain entry. He forgot his post, and several dozen extra people managed to sneak into the bar without ID checks or pat-downs.
Sarah Snow met the team in a secluded booth toward the back of the venue. Railing enough coke to kill most quadrupeds, Sarah gave the team enough background information to buy their moral interest in the job: saving a young woman and killing her captor: a man named Rich Davis. She then offered enough fiscal incentive to make sure the job was done correctly. Glamor asked if the team could expose the target for a bonus to their pay, but Sarah asked the team to keep it quiet; instead, she'd pay a bonus if the team could create the most embarrassing end to Rich's life possible. The team agreed and Zenith returned to his daughter while Vip3r and Glamor partied and Frostbite stood around until he realized the meet was actually over.
The Plan
Vip3r begin digging up dirt on the target while Frostbite scoped out his home. Frostbite discovered that he was chaperoned at all times by at least three bodyguards. The team discovered that Rich was--well--wealthy, had a teenage daughter, and had multiple dating profiles targetting women in their twenties. The team decided to make a plan to divert Rich away from his home to make the extraction and hit easier, while also protecting his daughter. Vip3r would create a fake profile for Glamor on one of the dating sites, and would lure him on a date. While he was away from the house with his body guards, Vip3r and Zenith would break in and collect the blank slate. After this was finished, Glamor and Frostbite would end Rich.
The Run
The dating profile worked, and Glamor was able to coax Rich on a date on his..."yacht." Frostbite rented a small fishing boat, and learned to fish in the harbor to provide sniper coverage if needed.
When Rich arrived at the docks, Vip3r entered Rich's HOA host, then found his home's nested host. Vip3r disabled the locks on a window and looped security cameras so that Zenith could parkour onto the roof, then sneak in through the window. Upstairs, he investigated every bedroom but one; there were two female voices inside. He scoped out the downstairs, and found a locked door. Opening the front office, Zenith found the home's security decker with his feet up on the desk, and put stick-n-shock right into his chest. He snagged the decker's commlink, and Vip3r used trace icon to ensure that the target was--in fact--upstairs in the bedroom.
Realizing that the extraction target was in the room with the daughter, Vip3r used the newly discovered commlink code to hack the daughter's commlink and discover a boy's name with hearts in her contact list. She spoofed messages from the boy's commlink to lure her out of the house and keep her safe from harm. Zenith grabbed the extraction target, and Vip3r swung the car around. The trio barely made it out of the neighborhood before KE arrived, signaled from the decker's biomonitor.
After reaching safety, the extraction team notified the kill team. Glamor's water spirit caused a wave that threw Rich off the boat. As a bodyguard went to rescue him, Frostbite sniped him out of the boat with gel rounds, knocking him into the water. The water spirit dragged Rich to the bottom of the lake. Glamor helped the bodyguard back out of the water, and conned him into believing that she was terrified for her life, too. The bodyguard called for KE backup. When they arrived, Glamor conned the police officer that she didn't have a SIN with her because she was underage. The officer took her statement and let her leave.

- Rich's reputation was severely, and fairly, tarnished.
- The blank slated woman was taken into care of Team Alpha and their associates.
- A schoolmate of Zenith's daughter went to live with her mother.
