"Wouldn't have a clue. Matt would be a better person to ask." Joel confessed. He hadn't taken the time to investigate the driver, but he hoped that without a pack to back him up, the driver would be easy enough to deal with.

Matt shakes off the momentary disorientation at resurfacing back into his own body, his brain re-establishing links with his own limbs.
He takes a look at the alley and groans his way into a standing position, his knees creaking in protest.
Speaking to the others;
"Our new mate must have gone then?"
He jogs over to the drone and begins to pack it down into his backpack again. He opens an AR terminal as he does so, mentally narrating a message to tweety
/<<To: Tweety>>//Weather is getting a bit dicey so had to land, got a sweep of the target building and a delivery/pickup. Hard to make out the details but I've attached the sensor feed for you to review.
Pinged about 6-10 people inside, hopefully that number will drop significantly on a night time {Media Attached}//

"I think it might be a good idea to tail that truck... just incase our pay dirt was on it, don't you guys think?"

Leroy shrugs, take a last drag of his shitty cig, and throws it down on the ground before stepping on it.

"I'm just thinking aloud..."

"Could be a good idea," Jade allowed, "I'm not the best at this trailing stuff, but I can go with my bike where others can't.  Unless you guys need me here."

Tweety's answer came with a little delay. >>Appreciate the intel but i really don't have the time to go through this now. I trust you will do whatever you think is necessary to get my stuff back.<<

As if sensing something from afar, Tweety sent a text to all of you a few minutes later. >>Guys, I know this is your first job, but don’t sweat it too much. You know what you look for, where to look, and you have more than enough time to get it. You won’t get too much of these in the future, so take your time, get accustomed to the thoughts, the works. And just so you know: I trust you will be able to do this.<<

{to Leroy}
Did you guys see the trid-stream i sent you from the drone? Did you see our package being loaded on the van?
I don't think I did but I'm just gonna check.

Matt re-calls the trid feed into his image link, watching it over carefully to see if he could make out the details of the delivery/pick up

"I was a little distracted.  I didn't see anything just being cautious.  I think we're being over cautious.  Let's walk in, take the package, and walk out.  Matt, can you do anything about that keypad?  Should we wait until closing time?  I think we should go in now as alarms are less likely to be active.  Yeah there'll be more people... a little smash and grab might not be a bad idea, though."

He looked over to Miko, "Think we can scare anyone into submission incase we run into company?  Not exactly corpsec we're running up against here."

He looked at the wall, speaking to no one in particular, "We're gonna have to eventually go in loud and heavy.  Might as well get our practice in on a low risk run like this one."

Back up to Miko, "I say we try to crack the keypad on the door and have all of us go in as quietly as we can.  If we run into someone, we point our heaters at 'em til' they either piss themselves or try somethin' stupid.  I'm not fuckin' around.  None of that 'shoot to wound' garbage like the cop in the tunnels we ran into.  I've had plenty of time to wrap my head around it."

Leroy awaited his companions' opinions.

You got another text from Tweety in rapid succession. >>Guys, usually I’m not this scatter-brained, but I really have other things on my mind now. I just wanted to remind you of the opportunity to have the services of a matrix specialist. If you decide you need her, give her a call on the number I attached to this message. Her name’s Judy.<<

Jesus Leroy, I was hoping not to get the whole of the police force on our asses today. I don't really fancy kicking the door down unless we have no other options.
I'd prefer to get that hacker in, have her take out their security and then get in when things are quieter tonight.

"Sounds like a good idea," Jade said, "going at night.  But do I have to follow that truck or not?"

"I'd say to follow that truck for now, see if they deliver something that looks like our package? Always good to cover our bases." He considered the hacker mentioned before. "Unless we have any other concerns, I think we should get the hacker to do her tricks for us now. While we have time, we shouldn't take any longer than necessary."

"You're probably right," Jade said, "well, I would say we go in tonight unless something at the site would counter-indicate it.  Like a sudden influx of security people.  I would say we go somewhere we can sit for a couple of hours and study the footage Matt made to make a good plan."
Jade liked to have a good plan.  That made you had less surprises when you had to do a job, no matter what the job was.

"Good call. I fancy a coffee and something really really bad for me"
Matt slung his drone-filled backpack over his shoulder, making sure everything was zipped up tight and out of sight before heading back into the garage to look for their man.
He mentally transferred the hacker's number from Tweety's message to his to-do list, along with scanning the front of the building to check if that lock was wirelessly communicating or hard-wired to a node somewhere in the building. He guessed it would be pretty important to let their hacker know either way.
Last thing I fancy doing is getting caught with my tools out by some overzealous beat cop. I'm sure she'll know a better way of defeating that lock.
