Summary
It's time for crime to return to the beginning, as Runners pull off the oldest trick in recorded history for the good of the planet (and twenty thousand nuyen each, of course).
Background
Ea-Nasir is the pseudonym of a TerraFirst! member. He has a plan to combat the mining of heavy metals in his homeland - to swap a shipment of nickel with rocks, and do it without getting caught. It will require a daring heist from a Zruic-Orbital warehouse in Baghdad, and some skilled runners.
The Meet
Ez-Azael thinks about how the clothes make the man, and heads to the mall in the ACHE to buy some clothes. He also heads into the Ares Maximus Tactical Family outlet and has an assault cannon pointed at him, as a friendly greeting. Jane Excalibur vandilises the host of a resturant who delivered her a cold burrito. Roc, who is addicted to Long Haul, is on Long Haul. Roc beats Canter in a race, and then metaphorically dabs on her.
The meet is in a Aladin themed host. Mr J's persona takes the form of an in-theme shady dude. The job is to replace some nickel with worthless stone to embrass SK. Don't get into a fight is repeatedly stressed.
The Plan
The Runners plan, research, and acquire the necessary clothing so as not to cause a scene. After arriving at their safehouse in Baghdad, they're seven blocks away from the target. Roc and Ez-Azeal social scout the place out, whilst Jane and Nu11St@ck dive the warehouse's host. With some suspicious encryption ignoring editing from Jane and skilled hacking from Nu11St@ck, they manage to get the team on the schedule as guards for a special delivery. Also, a truck capable of lifting several tons of nickel is acquired.
The Run
Nu11St@ck resists the urge to road rage with admirable composure. Roc talked the runners in, displaying quite the silver tongue, whilst Jane distracted the guards. This involved her eating beaten, then goading one of the guards into a fight, and then goading him into getting killed by the security mage. Ez-Azael freed some djinn as the group left, upholding her convictions against binding spirits.
Aftermath
S-K discovers the 'nickel' is actually stone about 2 months later, isn't sure if it always was stone or not. The runners get away clean, and Terrafirst! is able to sell the nickel to finance their operations - and the run itself.

Game Quotes
Player After Action Reports (AARs)
Nu11st@ck: "Never expected a trip to the middle east. The sights we get to see in the work! Yet another smooth job, but there is something off about that other decker, need to investigate a little more."
Ez-Azael: "Ran like a well-oiled machine. It was definitely an easier job to do, but probably because we all were on the same page and hadn't had any slip-ups. Even went to the trouble of banishing some spirits that were bound for doing astral surveillance; said I was a Chain-Breaker, too. I unbound them so that we wouldn't have them tattling to their mage, so that was cleared up. All in all, good and smooth."
Roc Mission report to -Redacted- on the mission to -Reducted-.
The location of the mission was a bit more of a somewhat stressful situation for the operative and having to be deployed there for the mission was a bit more worrisome due to cultural and societal norms that were constantly had to deal with but that's a necessary part of having to do a mission there. luckily beforehand I was informed needed to learn German and Arabic before heading to the mission site I had time and a few other proceedings to learn a bit about the cultures and appropriate customs to follow to make sure I can easily blend into society without causing that much of an uproar.
Furthermore, with my augmentations I have I was able to mimic the accent a bit so I didn’t sound out of place. Of course, that didn’t mean it was smooth sailing and there were rough parts. For the record, I fear if combat would have started it would lead to us having to get out of the city and which would raise a lot more problems. For one we would fail the job and secondly, in a foreign territory that would raise a lot of complications, and our extraction along with survival
