Summary
Prince, Grasshopper, and 8133D3R hearing the Rats constantly poking the runner community decided to poke back. Grasshopper for the rep, Prince for spite, and 8133D3R to endear themselves to the runner community
Background
The Meet
No meet. Prince cryptically posts on OSC that he's going to take the fight to the rats, Grasshopper and 8133D3R pick up on this and they form a private chat and get to work on what they're going to do
The Plan
As the trio pulled up in the hood they started to plan. They'd jump a leader or two, kidnap them, lock them out of social media and start dunking on them using their own accounts all the while dropping as many rats as they could.
The Run
The run did not go as planned, 8133D3R matrix searched information on the leaders with help from Grasshopper and got the location, and Grasshopper's drones picked up the patterns over a day. However just outside the staging while the trio were planning in the alleyway a few Rats wolf-whistled Grasshopper's GMC Universe. Prince cloaked and leaned out a window with FBA cloaked by RPC and Grasshopper jumped to a drone in preparation. Every shot was a downed Rat, as Prince got one in the chest with EX-EX and Grasshopper nailed one in the neck and watched him bleed and as 8133D3R locked onto a paint grenade and detonated it. The Rats retaliated with paint grenades, one of which Prince threw back before chasing them into the street and continuing the group's oppressive onslaught. The GMC was painted shortly before the group gave chase and referred to as the 'Dookie Brown Van' from then. Prince did a split to dodge oncoming fire from the Rats and was picked up by Grasshopper. The Rats tried to hide behind cardboard boxes, which somehow blocked the sensors that Grasshopper's autonomous drones. And with that as the last one bled out while the Rats called for reinforcements Grasshopper bumped a bleeding Rat into the Universe and ordered Prince and 8133D3R to fix him. Knowing this would end up with his head sewn onto his leg, Prince ordered the medkit to stabilize him, and in short order the ganger was stable. Grasshopper dodged a KE officer and dipped the car into a car wash before he pulled them into his Tacoma Garage. Prince promptly turned into the ganger and made insulting posts glorifying Barrens Runners and they executed the ganger.
Next was a leader, and after Grasshopper's drones detected their patterns he set the GMC Universe to invisible mode, 8133D3R in retaliation to posts checked out their hosts and the trio were ready again. The group ambushed a group of 10 on the way. Prince strained even his superhuman shooting ability and nailed the lieutenant straight in the solar plexus, shattering every bone around it with precision. Grasshopper stretching his car to the limit came into the group and bounced the leader into the car and 8133D3R completely shocked by the precision of it all grabbed his commlink and went to work. Next, the runners were horrified as the car was nearly destroyed by volley after volley of gangers pulling lucky shots from the mana, and Grasshopper pulled a devastating drift from near nowhere the car up on two sets of wheels barely banking the last two shots off of thickened armor plates. Before Prince shot the major offenders in their genitals as recompense. Now it was 8133D3R's turn as they snuck into the host with new permissions and showed them that their meager defenses were not even up to the par of a Haven newbie and they were in without effort with the authentication codes, with which the group once again started dunking on the Rats
Aftermath
Rats Demoralised, Rat Leader executed. Grasshopper, Prince, and 8133D3R ride off into the sunset with the GMC Universe hanging on but by a thread and 8133D3R's machine sprite

Prince
We live in a talk shit get hit kind of world. Runners live and die by their reputations. I'm not saying that we should be rolling up like we did, full battle rattle, scouting leaders, sifting through hosts and impersonating people to every loudmouth with a P2.0 and more time than brainpower. However they were at this for weeks and decided to attack one of our own for whatever dumbass reason. Grasshopper has the skills to pay the bills because his truck was held together by his will alone, and I would have been hit if 8133D3R didn't throw up those directional charts at the last second, and we would have had to fight all of those Rats if they didn't get those directional charts as we were fleeing. They talked shit, their P2.0s are ours, they got hit and a lieutenant is dead. Maybe they'll think next time
Grasshopper
I've said it before. We've all got the right to our choices, a chance to make things better for ourselves. That said when your idea of a chance to get it better involves frakking with the rep of my business it becomes a problem. I live or die on my rep so if you decide to throw drek at it, publicly on the P2.0 for weeks. Well we can't be having that. I've done my bit to help deal with those rats, here's hoping someone bags the big rat someday soon.
