Gibbon looked a bit confused. "A dry run? What's that?"

"It's when you learn to swim without the water." Andromeda smiled, "Lets say we take over a truck just for the sake to see how well we preform. We get it done, we can use it as the delivery truck and forge the documents that we are supposed to pick the items up 3h earlier then previously agreed and notified. If we fail on the other hand we will know why we failed and can improve before facing the real delivery truck." she paused for a moment she judged the teams response so far " Truck hijackings happen a lot on the highways, no one will be the smarter. Worst case - we run with our tails between our legs," she looked at Gibbon "no disrespect Gibbon."
Prepare for the worst, hope for the best and expect nothing!

"Interesting, I wouldn't mind helping out if you need to physically subdue the driver, as long they're not an Orc or Troll mind." Whilst Cookies eyes were flickering over the menu as he made his choice from the AR overlay.

Gibbon smiled at Andromeda. "Hey, if i couldn't take a few well-placed jokes about my tail, i'd be loco de atar by now. This dry run sounds good, although i can only help with distractions or subduing. Which reminds me i'll have to get a weapon for non-lethal combat. My current one is, well, not friendly to anybody on the receiving end."

"I'll do the non-lethal combat," Kitten said, "and I can also handle orks and trolls.  I've not met many trolls that could handle a stunbolt.  Dry run sounds good, as it will give me time to get that application done.  That can be our second trump card, should we need it."

"Agreed it's shame I can't learn that trick, I guess I'll just be the first aider and backup for this little exercise, mostly since my gun maybe in the shop then, the worst part is I can afford a backup now, I just haven't gotten around to it yet, I just can't make my mind up what to get."

*Frag'it Frag'it and Frag'it again,  Why did they have to notice me. gah, getting tired, need to find a place to duck in*
Rorek sprints down several streets slowly gaining a lead on the pursuing thugs. Tahia's Embrace?, guess thats as good a place as any Rorek ducks in through the door and quickly, and quietly as he can makes his way to the back attempting to blend though breathing a tad heavily. Phew, I think they lost me he mutters under his breath. He takes a moment to steady himself catch his breath and takes in a look around.

Cookie, his vision still on the astral, notices an unfamiliar but obviously panicked aura heading through the restaurant in their booths general direction at the back of the establishment.

Sergei's cab arrives at his destination, and he walks on in.  <<I'm here.  Where should I be going?>>

Cookies attention turned fully to the stranger that had just walked head in the groups direction, he reached under his jacket to check on his knife, if he timed it right, if they were going to walk through the curtain, as he got up and took a stand to the side of the curtains, making himself as out of the line of sight as he could if he got it right he could scare the hell out of them long enough for the others to do something as he sub-vocalised a message to the others.
@Gibbon, Kitten,Andromeda : panicked person just walked heading in our direction, is that our new guy? if not, if they step though the curtain someone is getting a scare and if they choose to be very unfriendly I'm assuming someone can arrange a stunbolt.
At the same time his commlink buzzed indicating a message, instinctively he hit the text to speech button, as he watched the new guy on the astral whilst listening to the message, a feeling of unease settling on him.


Yes I'm hiding behind the curtain, [agi+infil.] (8d6.hits(5)=2)
first roll went bad spending edge to reroll on the 6 dice that failed
Hiding behind the curtain reroll (6d6.hits(5)=3)
much better.

Oh, right, they probably want to look me over first.  Pulse almost smacked himself for not considering this.

<<Here, I'll mark myself with an ARO for you...>> He broadcast a simple ARO at the commcodes he'd been provided to identify himself.

The ARO marking your new hacker is near the front of the restaurant and not the person moving towards the back.
Pulse sees two large angry men in suits go by the restaurant as he enters,it seems the man who entered just before you crossed some bad people today.
The team receives a message from silk suggesting they find a new face for the job, its too risky to use her now.
Rorek can roll perception to see if he notices someone in the team's booth move in reaction to his  moving through the restaurant.

* Should probably stay low for a bit, head towards the back just in case they come back by* Rorek starts walking toward the back of the place while looking around.

Rorek notices that someone in the furthest back booth has moved in reaction to his approach, they appear to be hiding in wait at the booth's curtain.

Gibbon sat up suddenly, his hand crawling under his jacket, replying without talking loud. "Nah, i just told the new guy what name he should ask for at the counter... Which he might have missed, as the ARO outside shows." He sent a message to Pulse. >>Go to the reservations counter, drop the name Escobar, and ask the lady to take the roundabout to our room. We might have a situation brewing in the front.<<
