Does any of you boys know of or can offer a place where we can meet safely? The next two week are going to be quite busy. We need a secured HQ and we need to find a safehouse where we'll keep the target once extracted.I'm looking to get another runner involved with us for this run, or maybe longer term, I have a couple messages to send. 
She did get a bag of popcorn, but never returned back to the theatre. The small group exited, ready to do business.

"Uh.. well.." He muttered, before turning his back to the woman, his hands pressed together, fingers tapping. In person, he wasn't a very good talker, not by a long shot. Biting his lip, the digital algorithms flowing around him again.

<<The ball inflates into existence, as the cat from before hops onto it. Always feeling a bit more comfortable like this, "Well, as long as we don't do anything too spoilerish, we should be able to use a place I have. But we have to be careful, never film where you live and all that."

All Kachina saw was the young man mumbling something and turn around. Without her Trodes active, she had no clue that something was happening in Augmented Reality.

Look, kid. I remember of you. We worked on a run together, two months ago or so. No one in the team wanted to work with you, and I don't recall seeing much of you anyway, so it's fine if you don't recall my face. I only remember them talking about Runs being nothing like a video game and that you would get us all killed. Well guess, what I'm alive, and for all I know the other runners too.

Maybe you don't know what Running is like, maybe you do. Maybe you do suck at what you were hired for - what was it? Matrix support, right - but I tell you what, I don't care. All I do care right now is that someone had you come to this meet, that someone has enough fate in you to accomplish something. And it happens that you are now in my team. And as such you will get the respect every other teammate will get, the respect I expect every teammate to also give. Are we clear on that?

So now, if you want to talk to me please look at or towards me at least. If you are doing some sort of AR Shenanigans, just be aware I only use my trodes when on the run and required, so sorry I have no idea what's going on there. By the way, I'm Kachina.

She extended her hand toward the young man her intense but kind eyes piercing straight through him.

Carbonel nods a little, looking at the hand for a few moments before finally extending out his own, cautiously. For Kanchina he points to thin air, to anyone  who he wanted to see, he was pointing to his catlike living persona. This world of cybermancy and plastics was easy for the kid to get along just fine, even if he wasn't a very out going person in real life.

So many things were automated, electronic or otherwise inhuman. It was this, the world of flesh and blood, that he had problems working in. Especially when it was a more personal relation, asking for a taxi to drive you somewhere, getting a hamburger from the stuffershack, or other times when the employee was nothing  more really but a living machine meant solely for the purpose of ringing up junk.. those interactions didn't really bother him much.

Letting out a small sigh though, he runs a quick data search for information on the extended hand, reaching out himself to shake her hand now, finally. He only hoped she would use her trodes here soon, hoping she'd realize that was what he was pointing at earlier.

Kachina grabbed her commlink, but instead of activating her Trodes, she typed a few times and brought the device to her ear.
This is Kachina Powaka. We spoke before about considering joining my team... Well, we now have a job that will required your skillset . If you're interested and free, consider yourself hired. The pay is good for this one.

The indian soldier received a message. He had heard of the woman so called Spirit Witch wanting to gather a solid team. He was too busy at the time, but now was his chance. Would he take it?

She looked back at the young man pointing his finger in the air whom she believed was going to take on the computer part. Rolen was next to him. She reiterated her question, not knowing the kid had offered something already: So, I called up another runner, we need somewhere safe where we can discuss our plan of action. Anyone?

"Well I suppose we could go back to my house." Rolen said out loud. "I have plenty of explosives and weapons and stuff there. LEGALLY." He said the last part a bit loud, in case anybody was eavesdropping.

Jag lined up the shot, rubbing the cue through the stubble on his chin as he anticipated the victory.
The black sat slightly off to the left of the pocket, an easy shot in anyone's book. He took it, watching the white fly down the table at a decent pace, a touch of backspin on it for safety. A mili-second before impact, the holoprojector flickered and died, causing the balls to fade from existence.
Jag shot an angry look at his opponent, stood at the far side of the table with a big smile on his face. Dang, what a shame
Jag's blood boiled, fucking scumbag was clearly on the make.
The tattooed muscle head squared up as Jag stood up from his shooting posture, a noteable change in the stance of his "buddies" showed they were alert and ready to hand out an asskicking.4 of them, I like those odds.. Jag reached for his staff as his commlink vibrated, lighting up his AR feed.
Problem?! taunted his opponent, but the message brought Jag back to his senses.
Work was a lot more valuable than dishing out some retribution on these hustling wankers.
Grabbing his kit off the stool behind him, Jag left the pool hall without saying a word, silently fuming at the jeering and taunting hurled his way as he walked towards the door.
Mentally he dictated a reply:
//Kachina, good to hear from you. Count me in, how good are we talking?//

Carbonel fidgeted in place, gulping loudly. Glancing to the commlink, he frowns slightly. Using his talents was going to be hard if no one used technology. He glances to Rolen and then to Kachina. "Commlinks.." he spoke out loud in a bit of a whisper, pointing to the device, before attempting to send a message to Kachina's with the location of his own home.

Kachina read the location sent by Carbonel. Her eyes widen then looked back at the young man with a frown taking form on her face.
Is that where you live? You want to bring a group of armed criminals to a secured area so they can chill at your place? Fancy.
She tilted her head , intensifying her look at Carbonel trying to figure out who he was. She was afraid of finding out. She noticed earlier he had no cyberware. Now she found out he was living in a rich neighborhood.
Let me ask you this: have you ever been in a gun fight? Heck, do you even have a gun?

She activated her Trodes. The world of Augmented Reality kicked in all around her. She didn't mind it but had stopped being impressed by it a long time ago. Even virtual reality has been unable to reproduce the sensations she could get from the feeling and insights of Astral Projection.

She pinged Jag with the address of Rolen. <meet me and the rest of the team there, 20min>

<<"Ah! Finally You're here!" The cat suddenly responds, wiping a bit of drool of its face. "Was getting a bit afraid there you'd forgotten about me." Teleporting near the boy, The cat adjusted it's crown and patted the boys leg. "Please, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. It is I! The Cat King who you should be showering with praise and attention! Now as for a gun, No. Neither of own a gun that can affect your world of flesh and blood and " making an eww face. "organ things. However, " he reaches into his fur pulling out a comically large revolver. "This however is the most powerful handgun in the entire matrix. Blow a hole clean through any fancy electronics there is. Magically stuff however.. That is completely your world my lovely... Uh.. Lady?">>

Carbonel shrinks a little at the intensifying look at himself, looking down a bit and away from Kachina, showing just how separated he practically was from the real world.

Kachina's eyes caught Rolen's, a dubious look on her face. She'd heard of rich kids wanting to enter the Shadows for excitement and adventures, thinking it'd be like a life-like Video game.
Rolen, it'd be your place then. Is it big enough for the four of us? Let's make a stop by my pad to grab first.

She looked again at Carbonel and the digital cat representation next to him. Her aura was strong and intimidating, but her traits kind and reassuring. She hoped he was as good in the Matrix as he pretended to be and wouldn't be too much a liability on the ground.

<<To: Kachina>>//No problems, i'll grab my kit and meet you there.//
Jag focussed his Qi inwards, quelling it from rising as the taunts still echoed in his head.
The door slammed behind him and he stepped out into the cold night, aware that that might not be the last he heard from those pricks.
He kept his guard up, hand never straying too far from his trusty staff, concealed though it was.
Jogging over to the carpark and down to the basement level, his breath formed neat little clouds in the cool evening air, the car door cold to the touch.
He zapped the address details over to the car's pilot program, adding it as a waypoint to its satnav and he purred the car out of its bay.
The AR interface glowed a beautiful orange, contrasting nicely against the cool metallic greys and whites inside the cabin. It was a sleek motor and it went like shit off a slippery stick when he needed it to.
Today though, he didn't, and it was a relatively traffic free cruise back home to pick up his "work" gear, stashed inside a forgettable looking duffel bag in the boot with the wireless turned off on everything for good measure.

He let the pilot do most of the hard work, keeping an eye on it as it crossed the town before taking the reigns on the final couple of miles.
This part of town was on the shitter side of the scale, the kid he was meeting was clearly either on the down-low or was just trying to hide in plain sight. It paid to be careful in this game though, so Jag circled the block, getting a feel for the entrances/exits and likely ambush spots before parking up opposite the address. He slaved the car's security system into an AR terminal, tasking it with alerting him with any movement on its motion sensor before minimising the window to the upper right of his glasses.
Killing the engine, the car chimed it's goodbye as he stood, taking in the night air and absorbing the view.

Rolen nodded at Kachina. I should say so, it's a decent sized house. He glanced over at the kid. He wasn't quite sure about him, especially seeing as how he never said anything. That might be a problem. He also didn't much look the type to be good in a firefight. Then again, with Rolen, he wouldn't need to be.

While the waited for a cab, he slowly glanced between the two vets. Talking to people in real life has always been a bit of a deal for the kid, as most of his contact with the shadows was through computer. Still, he was soon going to prove his usefulness.. the moment he could get them to begin watching the matrix like most people he's worked with before.

Kachina felt reassured with her submachine gun hanging low on her thigh. They made their way to Rolen's place and she gave him the green light when Jag finally showed up.

The four of them were finally together. They had a long two weeks ahead of them to be ready for the extraction. She handed the data chip to Carbonel. Show us what's inside, that should give our friend Jag a good sum up of what needs to be accomplished.
