Sammy was following the conversation when she saw that O'Connor had activated his me-feed.  She quickly sent a message to Snow, with the rest of the team in copy.
What's going on down there, Snow?  Oh, and make a mental note that we have to teach O'Connor a couple of things about how he introduces himself.

[Mercy Merchant]

Snow sends a message back to the team.  <I am not entirely certain.  Con was talking to some people he met then he sent me a note saying that a guy behind me was acting suspiciously and was leaving.  He gave chase and all of a sudden we are getting this Pito feed from the parking lot.>

[HydroRaven]

Discreetly, Clem took a look at the conversation the team was having. After reading Snow's message, she immediately sent her a message of her own. <Quickly, follow Con, that guy could be someone that traced the bugs back to where you are now!> She turned over to Sammy and asked her quietly "How do I patch myself on Con's feed?"

[Mercy Merchant]

Snow replies <Wilco.  Leaving now.>

She turns to Cavendish, "I am sorry, but it seems that one of my teammates is having an issue with someone in the parking lot.  Are you picking up the Pito feed as well?  I need to go see if he is in trouble.  Will you excuse me for a minute, please?"  She stands up, excuses herself to the others and goes outside to see if she can help.

"We both believe that this should be a simple job for a team with the talents that you displayed in Seattle, with the only difference being a modicum of personal discretion would be necessary, nothing more.  The schedule conflict will not be an issue, if you can't acquire my client's item during your impending free time it will be worthless for you to try."

Sam's attention was focused on the negotiations, so he was only vaguely aware of the comm chatter. Didn't seem to involve him, so he ignored it as best he could. "Very well, we will proceed on your assurances. However, I do wish to be absolutely clear that we would be taking this on as an extra job; if there is any conflict--real or perceived--between your job and our current employer's, our original contract takes precedence. As I'm sure you're aware, loyalty to an employer is very important in our line of work. As long as this is understood, I believe you may go forward."

"Just select his icon and then you will get some options," Sammy wispered back while trying to follow the conversation, "select the live feed."

She did sent a message to O'Conner.
O'Connor, make sure your delay is on or the cops will simply track on your feed and find you without any problem.

[OOC: Per the post in the OOC thread I will let you guys know when you are all operating at the same time again.]

O'Connor immediately gave chase. He went for his pistol, but then remembered it was back in the club, *God dammit.* He didn't have time to go get it, so he picked up the pace to catch the guy, "Get back here, now!" He turned his commlink's microphone up, "Hello viewers,and welcome to Eye of the Storm with everyone's favorite psychopath, Bullet Storm. Caught this guy scoping out my teammate and now he's pulling a runner. Let's go make friends." He figured that if he had to use the Pito thing, he might as well have fun with it.

O'Connor reaches the mouth of the alley, then easily ducks back avoiding the guy shooting at him from the next corner.  He hears a language he doesn't understand, probably cussing him out, that ends with "...leave me the frag alone!!"

O'Connor can roll initiative at this point, he is in rounds.

[Necrogigas]

O'Connor rushed down the alleyway, yelling at the guy, "I've got two hotties, not on the hook, but in the damn boat. And you are fragging that up for me! Every second you do not surrender is an extra kick in the balls!"

[Crossbow]

O'Connor puts on an impressive burst of speed, made all the more impressive because he is chasing a man with a gun while unarmed.  He comes around the corner just in time to see the man ducking into a narrow walkway.  When he reaches the passage himself, he dives in realizing the man is less than a meter away and turning to shoot again.

EOTW

“You’ve no doubt heard of Christy Daee—four Grammys for Best Album, four for Best Female Vocals, two for Best Sim Performance. A few days ago, Ms. Daee got caught in a compromising video that could seriously undermine her career. I’ve already started a cleanup process, but yesterday miss Daee received a blackmail letter. It was easy enough to identify the blackmailer as Bacchus from the A-Kidz gang. The A-Kidz are a local gang, and like most gangs they have their own P2.0 show—theirs is called Gang Life. Charisma Associates is constantly watched over by newshounds, and I can’t trust anyone in town not to post this on their Pito, so you’re in the best position to retrieve this video, not being from around here.”

“I don’t believe the video is stored on any networked location, otherwise it would’ve already hit the streets. My people are already allocated if it does get released, but that’s more money than I hope to lay out. I’m authorized to pay your five-man team two grand apiece for the retrieval of the video, to bring it back to me before it goes the public. Contact this number when you have it, and I’ll meet you back at Studio 8.”

[Thvor]

Sam nodded thoughtfully. "Sounds fairly straightforward. Track down this Bacchus, get the tape. Do you want it returned, or is destroying it sufficient? And do you care what happens to Bacchus, or his gang?"

[Crossbow]

"Bacchus and the A-Kidz are of no concern to me, get the recording and bring it to me, payment is on delivery."

[Necrogigas]

O'Connor rushed the guy, "If you fire that gun one more time, I'm shovin' it up your hoop!" He threw a haymaker at the guy.


Unarmed 3 + Agility 5 = Pool 8
8d6.hits(5)=3
Damage: 2S + net hits

[Crossbow]

The blow knocks the guy on his ass, he looks for a second like he was going to shoot, but then he puts up his hands, "Alright fine, frag, it ain't worth dying over.  She's here to collect?  She needs to know there are new players."

[Necrogigas]

O'Connor didn't have a fraggin' clue what the guy was talking about, but decided to play things safe and cut his me-feed. He grabbed the guy's gun and then pulled him roughtly to his feet by the front of his shirt. He then punched the guy again, "If ya ain't willing to die, then don't start shooting." O'Connor grabbed him by the back of his neck, "You're coming with me, and explaining this drek." As O'Connor led his captive back into the alley, he called Snow, <[Recipient: Snow | Source: Call (audio-only)]: "I caught the guy. Said something about you being here to collect, and that there were new players. Am I bringing him in to you, or are you coming out to me?"
