Tiny simply nods when Tank speaks, cracking his knuckles and glaring at the techs.

((Tank, your steel lynx is in the snow vehicle, who's near the warehouse..and Xtreme is with you, not with the drone))
Getting inside the airport building from the trap door, you can see your plane covered in snow and ice. The 2 techs put coats and boots on, and lead the way to a hangar at the end of the plowed runway. As you arrive a car pulls on the runway, going for your plane. The pilots get out and board your cargo, coming out a few minutes later with a big box.
Inside the hangar lies a small cargo plane, smaller than yours but well protected from the elements. The techs, not really wanting to get on the bad side of a troll, a dwarf and a heavily armed group, get in the cockpit and began preparation. Tank just sits down and dives in, trying to get his drone to the airport.
Your pilots joins you a few moments later, with a flashy orange box "We got the black box like you said, so we're going out of this hellhole"

That everyone accounted for ? Lets get airborne, anyone else got skills or clearance to fly one of these crates rather than these techs ? - just in case we wind up where they want to be, rather than Seattle 'port.
Freddy looks at the oncoming storm, hoping they dont have to avoid it by flying somewhere they dont want to go..

"I'm not really trained for this kind of aircraft but If it comes down to it I could try. I have flown other aircrafts." Tank says as he looks over the controls thing to start to figure out what he would do if they take themsome where else. "How about I sit up here where I can see the controls so I can keep an eye on our heading."
"They better not drek with us now I'm just looking for someone to geek for all the trouble this trip has brought me. The first one that messes up gets it I want blood for losing my magic and all this trouble with my drones." Tank thinks as he still hasn't got the pay back he wants yet.

The 2 large hanger door opens, and the plane makes a nice take-off, the tech are tense, it can show, mostly having a ticked off dwarf watching their every move seems to get to them. When in the air, the old one turns to Tank "So, where are you taking us?" His English is better than the young one, but he's got an accent.

You fly-boys know the locate we need to get back to - you want to check out this craft too..
any info on the town - or heat sigs if it is has been blown..?
Once weve landed, these tecchies should be debriefed and make a descision where they want to go - back to Japan an face the music or set up in Seattle..
Freddy peers out of a window at the township slowly becoming obscured by the storm.. wont be much left of it soon - no doubt..

"Right, we'll go talk to those 'pilots'..heh....Jim, check the bird." One pilot went for the cockpit, the other started looking around the few boxes near the cockpit. Outside, the town seems pretty normal, even if the countdown's been done with a few minutes ago..thought with the coming dark blanket the storm is giving, you could spot a few glimpse of light- not the electrical kind, more like fire- dancing in the distance.

the buildings have been torched - ah well, to be expected. We got a flight ahead of us, lucky to still be sane- an heading back...
Anyone asking what we got away with, will be answered with Fraggers put in a system dump scrub, we got away with our lives an frag all else.. The techs might know something and a finger to his lips..
Freddy double checks the storm with astral... any unusual spirit activity ?

The Storm have no spirit activity, looks like your regular mother-nature controlled snow storm.
The pilot talked with the techs, getting them to fly off toward Seattle. In a few hours, you'll be back home, where the snow makes place to the ususal rain found in the NorthWest.
You'll still need to found out what happened to Dom, get debriefed and paied.
((I'll inform Johnson that this is done, he'll give away Karma and such for the tiem he was GM, I'll give my payout afterwards.))

The meeting room of GlobalTech Industries seems gloomy this morning
im sure this is where we were suppose to meet Dom
as the group settles themselves at the table, the center opens up and a few pitchers of water and glasses come up from the center of the table, Xtreme looks around and stands to get a glass
so odd, its almost like no one was here today except for security and a few employees
all of a sudden the wall behind the CEO seat lights up and the party is now looking at what appears to be a recording from Dom
"Greetings runners, I apologize that I may not be here for the celebration of your success, but urgent business has occupied my time. I hear that your mission was successful and that you retrieved the helmet for me which is to be given to Xtreme at this time. I congratulate you on a job well done. I understand that some property was lost which I will be willing to replace if you would leave the information with Xtreme. You have already each received 15,000 nuyen, I am awarding each of you an additional 50,000 nuyen for your successful completion of the mission and retrieval of the headgear. I do look forward to acquiring your services in the future."
the vid screen blinks, Xtreme stares at the wall with a blank look on his face
what in the frag was that all about!!??
a small panel of the wall opens up containing cred sticks for each member in the amount of 50,000 nuyen
OOCcongrats everyone, I apologize that I was not able to complete the mission with you and would like to sincerely thank Braddoc for taking over and doing a WONDERFUL job (I wont forget this next time you run Four-eyes) so to each of the runners I will give 5 good karma, its a little lower than I had hoped but im sure Braddoc will award you more. I hope upon HOPE to get internet for my birthday which is on the 14th of this month and I hope this time I can keep it longer than a few weeks. during my time off-line I have been workin on another adventure that I hope to get started when I return, though ive been a tad shady on the idea since the last 2 campaigns I started I couldnt finish so I am trying to set it up for something that I hope will increase the game play and reduce the time frame. I do hope you found the adventure interesting, loved the idea that some of you thought is was a BTL program, I was worried at first that someone might figure out the truth too soon... im really sorry I had to leave you guys, im just starting to get my life back on track and I look forward to talkin to all of you again real soon

Tiny tries not to let his eyes bug out too much at the mention of the 50,000 nuyen. He makes his way, slightly unsteadily, to take his cut of the money.
Credstick securely in his pocket, he turns back to the others.
Dont know about you fellas, but I could use a beer or two. Anyone know any good bars?

50 grand - OK for a few day's work
But it grated - the team had been nearly anhiallated, a lot of questions still remained, though he thought the loss of his own memory might have something to do with that.. they had hit paydirt, delivered what was a potential hi-tek dream ticket to the guy, and were treated as runners. Well I suppose that's exactly what we were a few days ago
so what had changed ? Well. Freddy had already stepped out of the shadows - his dossier was floating around in different people's hands. It was Dom's work that had nibbled the tiny titbit of intel to get them there in the first place.
What did he expect? A hearty handshake and a big pally back slapping 'Thanks Guys' from a well pleased Dom.. Freddy burst that balloon quickly, Dom was a ruthless arms dealer who had fought his way up and was heading for Mayor - if he made it, then they were made for life riding the coattails of success, if he diddnt, then the next mayor would be putting up another special freeway, at least they would be pillars of society!
They had made a bonus out of the android brain and headset.. good
Dom's place had to be secure so..
Inside their mainframe I was able to download some further juicy items, I can download it directly if you wish, the skillwire chip info may provide a lead, someone had to supply the mil-spec programmes, could be traceable. Along with a debriefing on the tecchies..
the accounts I suspect are an indicator of the security on this strangely small scale operation
but the fone intel should prove more useful, and will need immediate follow up
Xtreme was concerned over recent explosive events - I presume BB has a breakdown - have the team got anything yet?
And yes - a few tinnies would go down a treat, though I'm not sure about them having to be ice-cold..!

"50K that is a decint amount of money but the thing I like hearing is Dom is going to compisate my drones. Maybe I give them a # 2 after there name to pay respects to the downed ones at the small town." (Unless I did manage to get the drones back not 100% sure on that one.) Tank looks over at Tiny. "Ya I could use a good beer right now."
