@Sovereign, Your fixer Prop Joe send you a text: >> Sovereign are you free to work on some short notice? Apparently there is some rich wage mage chick lost in Yakuza territory.  Her ride was attacked by some military grade anti vehicle missile?!(Can you believe these ganger fucks even have access to this kind of weapons?!)   She is looking for someone to pick her up and bring her to a hospital.  I’d believe anything these days, but this is a bit excessive don’t you think? She does not have anything technological on her - so you have no way of contacting her, but she gave me an address of a street clinic at touristville and she said she’ll meet you there at 20:30.

@Serge - It was a long day at the clinic and you stayed late doing inventory. As you are about to head home a mage manifests in your shop. She seems fragile, having seen manifested mages before, he can say that she looks pale and more transparent then usual. She say:
“Can you help me doctor Feron?... I was terribly wounded and cannot move, I am not very far from here. There should be another mage on the way, I can pay handsomely but I need to get medical treatment in the next hours.”

@Serge - It was a long day at the clinic and you stayed late doing inventory. As you are about to head home a mage manifests in your shop saying. She seems fragile, her aura is faint and from what you can assense her medical condition is very bad.
“Can you help me doctor Feron?... I was terribly wounded and cannot move, I am not very far from here. There should be another mage on the way, I can pay handsomely but I need to get medical treatment in the next hours.”

Looking up from his paperwork as the magician manifests, Dr. Feron notes the condition and levers himself from his chair and says, "Of course. Quite the dramatic entrance you made. So, what symptoms and/or injuries should I be expecting and where is your body located?"

Maxwell lets out a ragged cough as he scans over the text.  Eyeing the words "military grade anti vehicle missile" doesn't fill him with any sort of dread or anxiety.  "It seems the gangs are growing more bold lately," as he mumbles to himself.  "Well I got nothing better to do, might as well and go see what this is all about."  And on that note Maxwell walks out of his apartment to his new assignment.  At the very least he now has a reason to stretch his legs.

@Sovereign, you arrive to the clinic and see the doctor chatting up a materialized mage. She greet you and ask for your help bringing her to a hospital.

@Serge and Sovereign - "Long story short, I am not sure where my body is. I ordered my spirit to hide it withnin radius of 100 meters of where I was.  Then I took off from my body to weaken its aura... I was away when I released the spirit. I had to be, the astral started filling up with watchers trying to pinpoint my location.

I encountered somebody from my past. More precisely,  he encountered me.  He was angry enough to lunch an anti vehicle missile at my car. His name is Venom and he is affiliated with the Yakuza. He and his goons should be looking for my body right now to confirm the kill - they know I can't be very far.

 I was hit with biofeedback damage, as I was jumped into the car when it exploded. Luckily I was in cold sim but the damage is so extensive that I am heavily bleeding. I am speaking to you because I had a medical drone scripted to apply a stim-patch to me so but I do not have much time left... I should be in my body once the chemicals are out - but if I approach the area I'll have to astrally fight and I am in no condition to do that.

 Look guys - I know it is dangerous, but I really need your help right now. I can pay 5k a head - and you get the advantage of knowing where I was."

The doctor hefts a medical kit backpack and slips his arms through the shoulder straps, "I'll see what I can do." With that, he rushes out to his Hyundai to start off down the highway trying to find some sign of heavy weapons fire.

En route, he picks up his commlink and hits the speed dial for Bruiser--the gang boss should be made aware that Yaks were shooting heavy grade weaponry off near the turf he'd been keeping secure.

Maxwell looks over at the street doc and tries to assess him the best he can.  "Shorter than me but he does look well built for his height." Maxwell considers the offer, a chance for blood, fire, and glory with the added bonus of being paid on top of it. "Then again Yakuza aren't your average street gang and might be a hard kill."  Maxwell then speaks: "How many yaks are we talking about here" trying to sound as nonchalant as possible.

The mage answers to maxwell I think there are four of them, one of them is clearly a mage.  I do not want you to confront them, if you can avoid them it will be best for us all. My heroics for tonight are over I just want to get home safely.

"So much for valor this evening."  With a bored tone Maxwell says "Alright I'll see what I can do but no promises."

The doctor hefts a medical kit backpack and slips his arms through the shoulder straps, "I'll see what I can do." With that, he rushes out to his Hyundai to start off down the highway trying to find some sign of heavy weapons fire.

En route, he picks up his commlink and hits the speed dial for Bruiser--the gang boss should be made aware that Yaks were shooting heavy grade weaponry off near the turf he'd been keeping secure.

Noticing the street doc's mad haste Maxwell does his best to keep up with him and hitches a ride in his car.

Couple of kilometers down the road you can clearly spot a burned down bulldog van. You can also spot several eastern looking people that are searching trees around the van. The spot that the mage told you about is actually the second floor of a pub called the Joke about half a kilometer from the van.

"Well at least the idiots are looking in the wrong place."  Maxwell turns to the street doc and says: "That bar is probably full of gat-men, so getting her out of there is gonna require some creative thinking."  "I could create a distraction while you slip inside and pull her out."

Looking at his passenger, the doc says, "Right on, go right on ahead with that distraction. Just comm when you're ready." With that Serge pulls off to the side of the road and makes his way toward the back of the club on foot in a stealthy manner.

As you try to get passed the Yak's they become alert.  One of them yells at you "Hey you! what are you doing here?" The other is reaching for his gun - he does not point the gun at you but he seem to activate a laser sight.  The two Yaks seems disturbed.

Maxwell's heart skips a beat when her hears the goon.  Trying to come up with a reasonable excuse he says: "Heard this was a slammin place for a late night drink."

Stopping suddenly at first hearing the exclamation, Serge continues around behind the club as he realizes he wasn't the one noticed, murmuring, "Well, he did say 'distraction'." Before trying the back door, he makes a search of the area behind first to see if the client's wounded body is there.

@Sovereign  One of the goons whisper "He doesn't look like a dwarf..."  the other one: "But he is sneaking around... it must be her partner." Both goons point their guns at you saying "You are coming with us... if bossman thinks you are cool you can have your night cup"
