<<Don't worry, I'll just tase him. After that it's going to get interesting.>>
Kynos peaked around the corner to assess the guard again. No problem from his perspective. Just to be sure he looked for a silent running bio-monitor.

Athos shrugs and moves toward the hotel so he will be able to give support if needed.

@Athos Luna says "You guys should be more careful, this kind of security is no joke it is a small army. If I was a politician I'd be worried that our ambassidor is able to hire so many men. As a buissness woman I tell you that this night is a display of political power and influence the mayor and the entire high sociaity of Seattle came to him.  His buissnesses are blooming or so Jones like us to think, I am not sure that he really wants to sell your friend - I was just commenting on mage prices. Please do not tell me what you are going to do... I need to keep some reliable denyability if I am questioned." She said and skillfully disappeared into the crowd.

@Kynos it appears that there is no biomonitor on the guard. On a closer look it appears that he has no matrix enabled devices at all except a comlink.

It took only a second to aim the little laser dot on the exposed neck of the guard and press the trigger.


Kynos aimed for a second and shot two taser darts

Oh sorry you cannot sneak into the compound you have to walk over kilometers of bridge, and pass through multi level of security it requires more than a stealth roll to do. You'll need palming rolls for the taser and the chances are not very high.  I treated the sneaking as sneaking from the party without people noticing. It is an island with one active entrance and exist you cannot just jump the fence and sneak into it. Either you are on the island or you are back in Seattle. DemoX is in Seattle and is watching the bridge and island from drones outside of the island far enough to be ignored as a threat.

You sneak can with diving or with some impressive luck and a little boat, you can also try to smuggle a small firearm with palming - but you cannot go into the island with sneaking. I cannot imagine someone getting on board an international flight (or any flight in Israel) without passing through security. I can imagine someone smuggling something he shouldn't be having while going through security. Therefore if you want a taser give me palming roll.)  Alternatively, it might be easier to steal a taser/pistol from one of the guards. (or knock them down and take their gun if you prefer) but sorry about the ambiguity as to the perimiter I'll try to be more descriptive about these details.

@Kynos The paranoid guard draws his taser and lunches a dart at you while trying (unsuccessuflly) to dodge yours despite layers of protective gear he is struck down and is pretty shaken tough still concious.

[Jack_Spade]

A second shot solved that problem in no time. Before the guard even had a chance to fall down completely, Kynos was at his side, stabilizing him. The taser wires still stuck in the man and it was only a matter of a second or so to wind them across his chest and under his armpits for a makeshift sling. Another quick movement and the guard was fixed in a standing position on the storm shutter behind him.
Quickly, Kynos removed the man's commlink, weapon and ammo.

Looking into the window he saw Sovereign bound on a chair. Gently, Kynos tapped against the window - grinning maniacally 

[Mulcarn]

Maxwell hears a noise at the edge of the room.  Reactively he looks around to see what is.  To his delight he sees Kynos and starts smiling goofy.  "He got my spirit message!."  He gets out of the chair and walks over to the window.  Maxwell motions over at the locked door with his head slightly.

[gilga]

@Kynos On the guard's taser There is a small and neat display that shows a message  (with a probobly clearer one in the guard's glasses.) >> Violent incident recorded by DSS smart guard 2073. Please submit an incident report. 
It appears to be some automated program that records taser usage, your own piece shows the same message. These programs are very common in prison guards and other dangerous places where the guards may not be fast enough to even text help! You have no idea if the software is actually active or if the gun is even connected to the 'trix tough.  The guard's comlink is medium range one and is currently locked.

[Jack_Spade]

Kynos turned the gear wireless off and in case of the commlink deactivated it completely.
Seeing that the window was closed, he again took the steel tipped tine of the depleted taser dart and used it as a makeshift glass cutter. This was going to be tough to break. Gripping the guard's commlink tightly like a biface hand ax he stroke the window with all the might he could muster against the point where he had weakened the glass with the dart.

Before the glass had stopped falling, Kynos had climbed through to help Sovereign through the broken window.
"Look at me using high tech devices to their fullest potential. Enough lazing around for you. We've got to go."

[Mulcarn]

Maxwell stepped out of the way of the falling glass and watched the elf hop down.  With the keeb's help he was boosted up to the window and out of interrogation room.  He watches Kynos deftly scale up the wall and out of the room without aid and stand next to him.  Sarcastically Maxwell says.  "Yeah-yeah-yeah, your ability to break glass is legendary.  I wasn't loafing around either.  I just didn't want to cause a ruckus and wildfire to escape if I could have avoided it."  He stops for a moment and gets more serious.  "I also have one more problem.  My commlink was taken off me at the time of my capture.  If they hack it then they'll know who I truly am and all the people i've messaged or worked for.  If I don't get it back then... my life might become a whole lot harder.  If it's any incentive to help me then you can have the remainder of what's on my credstick."

[Jack_Spade]

"Well, let's just get those cuff off you and see what we can do. Maybe we'll have to start a fire after all. Wouldn't that be fun?

Do you need a taser? I've got a spare one. Now keep still, that might hurt a bit."

Escape Artist: 8d6t5 4[8d6t5=1, 6, 1, 4, 5, 1, 6, 6]

With deft movements and only a minimum of hurt he opened Sovereign's left cuff.
"So, now we've got to move fast. Into the maze, quick."

[Mulcarn]

Maxwell rubbed his sore wrist and dug his hand into his jacket pocket, to help conceal the cuffs still attached to his other hand.  Maxwell shakes his head.  "No, keep it.  I'm more likely to shoot myself than my target.  I'll follow your lead."  He stays close behind Kynos, letting him trail blaze a path back to the maze.

[Jack_Spade]

Once they had reached the dubious safety of the maze, Kynos turned to Maxwell: "No need to bribe me, although I won't hold it against you if you want to do me a favor.
First of all, I need you to run a trace action against your commlink - assuming you still own it. Here you can use mine for that. Than I'd like you to lay whatever support magic you have on me. I'll go in and get it back for you.
Alternatively you just give me a few marks on your device and I'll delete your files for you. I'm no computer wizard, but that I should be able to do."

[Mulcarn]

Maxwell looks at Kynos with a slightly glazed-over stare.  The matrix is to Maxwell what the astral is to non-awakened, alien and confusing.  It takes him a few moments to understand what the elf was saying but it eventually clicks.  Maxwell borrows Kynos' comm and gives him the access he needs.  He hands it back to him and rubs the back of his head in awkwardness.  "See if you can delete what's on it.  I barely use the matrix other than to listen to music and search the web for crap."  Maxwell grumbles in angered disappointment.  "This entire run has been a big waste of time and money, much like the previous one now that I think about it.  I'm further from my goal instead of closer."
