"They don't have to be sneaky here, so why waste the resources for it," Kitten said, "There were a number of spirits, mostly spirits of man.  Too much to blow to pieces, as reinforcements would show long before I've finished that.  I think applying for the job is one of the best ideas, as it will give us someone on the inside.  I'm willing to try it, but I would need a better fake ID."

Accusing Andromeda of putting her drones in harms way had her lose herself in thoughts. Silk, Kitten had to have known better, Her drones, just like Habu, like Shin, were her family, were as important as Kitten and Silk. Why would anybody willingly put them in harms way? why? Would someone ever bring the team in harms way?

"We do not need, Legion as much as you think, " Andromeda started breaking out of her thoughts, " I can do some rudimentary hacking and cyber-combat, of course i can not keep up with a technomancer or a full fledged hacker, but it should be enough to steal the truck, if i had the right tools." She looked around the team. "Or some one else has any ideas where to get a truck that we could use and be sure it's untraceable." Turning towards Silk "Maybe you could scheme one for us, pretend to be some inspection or something you do so well, and then we could steal it with less effort. As for the get away, it's difficult, as this kind of truck is slow and handles like a drunk elephant in porcelain shop. If we manage to clean get away at least for a few blocks i have prepared a set of false documents and plates to pretend to be a normal delivery truck. You can imagine that our resources are limited, so we will not be able to use more complex tricks like chameleon coating. But if Kitten can make us invisible for a few blocks i guess i can get us away from the chasers." Andromeda Smiled a bit, as this was the fun part she was looking forward to. "that takes one and six out of the picture, now people, off to sort out the middle." She looked at the team, " Any suggestions?"
Prepare for the worst, hope for the best and expect nothing!

Cookie raised his hand "Ok, so point one, do people still think I'm taking about gas? just wanted to clarify that I'm not  because, two, I didn't think I was that good at obsfuscating the fact that I don't exist..." his face some appearing more deadpanned than previously "..this also means that any data pertaining to me commiting a criminal act has a tendency to disappear, including anything that could cause me problems further down the line." he paused for a second "This is also a lot riskier than having a hacker do the job, but I have had to make use of this to do something similar, well ok nothing the size of truck, but, it is all down to timing"

"Hey, if Andromeda says she can manage the stealing and getting to the drop point without being noticed, i'm not the one to challenge her. More like i'm happy to have such a capable and reliable companion for the job. If i may suggest, we could use some foil stickers to enhance our chances of not being noticed." Gibbon looked back at Cookie. "Your plan can be used as plan B if something comes up. But i think the less risk we take, the better our chances are to complete the job."

"Now, for the next few points, if Kitten is willing to risk getting the job, that would certainly make two and three easier. Unfortunately, i don't know anyone who could get a really good ID in such a short time. And just for consideration, it would be a few-thousand nujen cost, because that ID would surely have to be trashed immediately after the job is done."

"I can see for that fake SIN," Kitten said, "I might know someone, but I can't make any promises.  Just a moment."

She went on the comm to Fly By, one of the computer wizzards from her Marauder days.  It was the only one she knew who might be able to get this.
"Hey Fly By, Kitten here," she said when contact was made, "Long time no see.  How are you?  Say, I have a job, but for that I would need a very good quality fake SIN.  Do you know someone who can get this very fast?"


If he doesn't pick up, I say the same on his voice mail, with the add 'please contact me as quickly as possible'.

"NAN can work as well if that's easier," Kitten said, "It has to be able to pass full scrutiny and I need it fast, like tomorrow if possible.  I know that will probably cost more."

"I can get it to you if you have about 7k handy... but it'll definitely be top grade so worth the investment I'd say."

"One moment, need a word with the team," she said to him, before shutting down the microphone on her commlink.

"I can get a high quality ID tomorrow," she said to the rest, "it will cost 7K.  It's a bit more expensive than normal IDs, but if you want it quick, it will cost extra."

"A costs which could've simply been avoided with a hacker to erase your trail or spoof some data into a rental company.", Silk remarked with a sigh. "And I suppose this is the kind of expense that comes out of everyone's share?"

"This is to get the job, not to get the rental truck," Kitten said, "the rental truck we can do with what we have, if we go for a rental truck.  I thought to get the job, or at least try for it, so to have someone on the inside.  Let's do it like this.  If I don't get the job, I can keep the ID and I'll pay for it.  If I need it for the job, it's burned afterwards and it comes out of the communal share.  Deal?"

"Perfecto, that's the kind of method i was thinking of in the first place." Gibbon was a little conflicted about not mentioning that the high price of the ID was a result of urgency than he thought Never look a gift-horse in the mouth... Then he turned to Silk half-jokingly. "And the hacker would've cost us 20.000 minus proportional costs, like his full share. Sure, he would've been capable of doing other tasks as well, and we possibly still have to hire someone for overwatch for the event, but with your negotiation skills, i'm sure we'll get a better deal."

Something was eating at him, were they overlooking something, the tecnomancers lack of appearance was a problem, 
have no choice, need to make that call.
He opened up his AR, accessed his contact list, quickly dictated a message and hit send.
"@Piemaker: Whereabouts and status of runner known as Legion,visual description is available, possibly known technomancer, will pay in either nuyen or favor, would prefer favor, consider possibility of interference - C"

"Okay, we'll take it," Kitten said, "I assume you still have my data to link it to this ID.  Let me know where I can transfer the money.  Oh, and if you're in town, give me a call."

"Not at the moment but maybe in a month or so... oh hey there was a guy looking for you, Asian guy, I didn't know him from adam so I didn't tell him anything, heres a pic in case you see him around."

Along with where to send the cash he gives Kitten a picture of an Asian human male, with dyed blonde hair and a nose piercing.
