 * When we last left you -- our heroes -- you'd all just unloaded various firearms on an approaching street racer, killing the driver and his girlfriend. *  * Fenix is standing across the street at the wrecked car, Nova is behind the wheel of your stolen van with Johnathan in the passenger seat, and Azreal is in the back. Young Allan Smythe is laying on the pavement where Nova -- mistaking a reflection from the street car's neon kit for a sniper's laser sight and a threat to the young man -- had thrown him down. *  * Johnathan notices a blacked out vehicle approaching from the rear when the fun begins. *  * Johnathan, the car picks up speed. *  * Fenix, the bodies burn and smell bad. *

 * ...Game on... *

 * FenixHawk runs back to the Van.

 * Nova, as you make for the kid your legs are suddenly ensnared by a bola. Your momentum carries you forward and you eat pavement, skidding on your face. *  ((great...)) <GM> * Fenix, a bola wraps it self around your wrist, the ball bearings spin together around your forearm with a clang and a little numbing pain. * <GM> * Allan screams, "OH MY GOD!! HELP!!" * <GM> * Nova, the high tension bola won't be untied. * <GM> * The car still bears down on Allan Smythe. * <GM> * One car heading at your position rather quickly.

 * Azreal coughs, "Do I get a gun or do I just stand here and stare at everyone?"

 * FenixHawk looks at the kid to check his status, then counts bad guys and where they are.
 * Johnathan fires his assault rifle at one of the bad guys.

Got it?" <FenixHawk> "And this is not open for discussion." <GM> * "I don't care how you pay me, pool your money or something," he raises his hands mockingly. "Team cash or whatever. Just pay me." * <GM> ((i love Patch, he's the street doc shadowrunner who hates shadowrunners)) <Johnathan> "Hey, you know anyone good with Cyberware?" <GM> * "Yeah, I do...me." * <GM> * Patch gives you another card, Johnathan. * <FenixHawk> "So when we get paid, team, the money comes to me before it is distributed." <Nova> "Yeah, the leader always thinks he's the best at splitting..." <Johnathan> "How much for a Smartlink?

Alphaware or standard? * <Johnathan> Whats your price difference for a regular and an alphaware?" <GM> * Double. * <Johnathan> "How much is your regular" <GM> * Don't RP it, just gimme what you want... * <Johnathan> (ok lol I have enough money right now for a regular smartlink, so I guess one of those since I don't have 5000) <GM> * Patch agrees to charge you 8000 for a smartlink 1 standard. * <GM> * He tells you to call him and leaves. * <FenixHawk> "John, weren't you going somewhere?" <Johnathan> "Oh, Fenix... that whore earlier was too young, you may wanna check on Room 12. Thats where she was, she may be trashing it." <FenixHawk> "Too young? How young?" <Johnathan> "16 or younger... I think.." <Johnathan> "She said 18, but was lying." <FenixHawk> "Oh...
