The spirit shimmered into existence, its wispy outline bowing to your command before returning to astral space to complete your command.
It took what seemed like forever to complete, but when it shimmied back into the material plane it was clear that things had not gone well for Callie.
The building you specified is currently occupied by 5 people. One has the gift as you do, 3 do not. 2 were armed, one with a blade, one with a handheld gun. One is restrained and in distress. Many of the nearby buildings were densely populated and I could not count and determine their occupancy before the gifted one began to probe at me.@Lumen__________
The guard had just enough time to yammer something into his commlink and half turn away from you before your blades found purchase, shanking into the hardest part of his concealed armour vest; throwing him unceremoniously onto the deck, his commlink skittering over the hatches.
Soak roll;
12d6.hitsopen(5,6)=10
edge used + he takes 4S and is knocked downTwo cracks of gunfire erupt from behind you and you can see tank emptying an old double-barrel into some crates where some maxwell lads had taken cover. Your lads broke cover of the vans and headed up towards the gangplank, bats, blades, tasers and allsorts drawn and at the ready.
Spinning back round to face your direction of travel, the deck was short and an open cargo hatch lay directly in front of you, on the far side of the maxwell you'd bowled over. The sound of an old hydraulic lift rising gave away that you weren't going to be alone shortly; and a flash of a figure across the bridge above you and to your left meant you knew they were beginning to move to defend their position.
As you got your bearings, it became clear that the goon was still in the game, albeit a bit worse off. He drew a taser from his inside pocket and pulled the trigger, launching a pair of darts in your direction
Fire taser: agi 3, pistols 3, laser 1, -1 wound (6d6.hits(5)=2) 2 hits
Pass one:
knives moves + attacks
Goon is knocked down and fires from supine
your team move up the gangplank
their team moves internally.
You're up again for second pass after dodge/soak@ProfGast___________
You have to drive slowly so the pair of drones can keep up, but it at least helps to reduce the vibrations off the shitty road surface.
Thermal scans from the drones show little, except for an occasional thermal signature from 750-1000ft above you, consistent with a low power engine moving through patches of dense cloud cover.
It stayed visible on the drone's feeds throughout your hourney, though positioning the sensor suite in such a way to catch it meant the drones rapidly lost altitude and had to slow down as they righted and generated more lift again. The pitch black became all encompassing as you drove on into the night. the beams of your headlights seemed more like the beams shone by deep-sea explorers into the murky depths than headlights on a British road.
City driving never really got dark, shit tons of neon and street lighting everywhere meant that it was almost a perpetual daytime in the main hubs. Civilisation was a long way away here though, and the clock was against you. Fatigue began to set in and the urge to take a leak before seeing to your empty stomach grew in your mind.

thanks mate, it was an audio test, well guessed! :-) What happened my love? I can't feel my left side. Did I fall?Her speech was muffled and mutilated by her apparent lack of muscle control of the left side of her face. Her lips barely moved, gently pulled only by the actions of their right-sided counterparts.
A tear ran down her right eye, pooling in where the oxygen tubing touched her wrinkled face
