Summary
John Wards Emily Marek, a ritualist in an exclusive contract for Ares, was stolen from their company car, spirited away to the fae realms and turned into a frog
Background
Emily Marek was a rather skilled ritualist working for Ares on an exclusive contract, a contract which one of Ares' competitors wished to forcefully cease. Regardless of methods.
The Meet
The runners travelled to a very loud bar in Downtown (Trades stopping to buy earplugs), where the J told them of the job and some details - that Emily worked warding various extraterritorial Ares sites, and lived at a high-security but not ET Ares company residence.
The Plan
Frieren sneaks in, plants the datatap and gas grenade. Later in the day, Trades and Frieren plan to intercept the vehicle where they detonate the gas grenade. Trades unlocks the door. Frieren climbs in and grabs the person. The team shoves them into the saltwater bath. and the team drives them away to banish them to the fae realm (thanks to a favour owed to True Sulla).
The Run
With chemsealed FBA borrowed from Norville Craddock and an RPC cloak from Trades, Frieren snuck underneath the vehicle with a gas grenade and data tap, slaved to Trades’ persona.
Freiren then clung onto the bottom of the vehicle as Trades hacked the vehicle, narrowly avoiding alerting the occupants, Freiren activating the gas grenade at the intercept point.
The gas grenade was set off before the guards could react and enable chemseal, however the rigger was alerted by the biomonitors of the guards and swept in.
Trades opened the door of the vehicle as Frieren ducked in and grabbed Emily, sprinting off to Trade’s truck as the rigger and dogbrain drone opened fire on her. The dogbrain was taken out by Trades, before Frieren jumped into the truck and stuck a respirator on Emily, Trades closing the doors and driving off, narrowly avoiding an attack from the rigger as Frieren retaliated with a bolt of ice, almost disabling the rigger’s rotodrone before Trades managed to break away and get out of sight, slinking away silently into the night.
Aftermath
Emily was spirited away in Trades' truck and taken to the fae realms by True Sulla, far beyond Ares' reach, or at least profitable reach for recovering Emily. The J was pleased at the, ah, termination of contract, and the runners got paid! (Trades also had a nice fish she caught before the run)
