Getting everyone into the van is easy. Marco's concealment spell makes spotting them difficult. But, Arc's drones alert her that every exit is sealed. And when she spots another rocket launcher near one of the exits she knows it's unlikely that they're going out without shots fired.

Yelena is still tied in to Arc's drones for visual and she notes the rocket launcher man. >>Srui, can use machine gun on rocket man?  If not, Yelena can leave van to deal with problem.<<

I could not sense an opponent with my Sight.  The rocket may be on a drone.

Arc felt a bit of relief as she saw/felt the others enter the van, sealing the door up once the trio made it inside...even if they didn't look like her allies, she knew they were.  Sighing, she mulled over what she saw through her drones, and listened to her friends.  "Tch, would be one way, but we just gotta leave...if that exit point is our best bet, we gotta block the rocket...hmm..."

She pinged one of her little bugs, calling it into attention as an idea formed.  "This is more a Firefly thing, but she showed me a trick or two...give a drone a command line, it sends out all sorts of noise..."

With a mental command, she sent the bug flying up to the rocket's point of roost, lighting it right above the window where it was positioned, and with a simple code, she began to make it emit all sorts of noise...it would block her use of it for a time...but if it worked...

Source for my move is from Rigger 5.  Basically an Electronic Warfare test (log-1 for me) can turn any wireless-enabled device into a jammer, creating a Noise Rating equal to the hits.  From jamming rules, that tells me that if the Noise of a jammer exceeds the Device Rating (weapons are usually a 2 right?) it effectively is jammed.  Here goes!

The code works and the drone is emitting noise as far as Arc can tell. But, there's no way to tell if the other device is actually being jammed without testing it.

The orkette persona pursed her lips as the code went to work, her feed to the drone turned to static as she transferred its control to autopilot.  "That should do it, but I'll be on my toes.  Moving now, need a way out, all roads out are blocked...options. anyone?  I'm not seeing drek unless we can blow a hole in a gate or ram through it...hn..."

Arc raised a brow as she pulled up the map, checking the query.

"Maybe.  The window between tracks and tunnel is small, need to squeeze.  Plus the tracks could murder the tires, not to mention the off road ice I gotta contend with after....it's doable, but only if yall okay with the bumpiness, ya feel me?"

Nicolai says, "Tires can take bullet. Tracks should be ok."

Marco was kind of distant and uncharacteristically quiet, he watched Yelena and Arc and Nikolai talk and felt alien - as if he was not really there. If he could project his mind he'd definitely be in Italy right now talking to Gabriel, perhaps surrendering himself for his sister for the slim chance that it would actually work - but he couldn't he was stuck there with possible more hostiles, peoples with guns rockets and all sort of corrupted tools of violence. 

Marco drily said "I can always take us all out with my methods of travel - though we will be missing most of the equipment. Perhaps it can be for the better, we can blow up the van and try to make sure nobody can follow us. We can also save that option as backup - if you prefer driving out of here. "

Jed's thoughts bring him to a concern.  If Nicolai is betrayed, and his resources eliminated, they may indeed be on their own getting back.  They would need resources to get home.  He had already instructed his spirit to retrieve any foci from the mage, but maybe there would be valuables on the sniper, or elsewhere that could help. 

Reaching out to his spirit, he asked Where are you?  We may be leaving imminently.  Do you have something for me?

I would rather finish eliminating the opposition and leave on our own terms.  Yelena, you should examine the sniper's body.  He may have something that should prove valuable if we find ourselves arranging our own transport home.

Yelena shakes her head. "Yelena think go is best.  Killed Tsina Molovna.  Mission done.  Justice served.  Srui, would leaving by tracks ruin tires?  If yes, cannot go that way.  Need van to go."

The silence that came from Arc practically dripped with her concern as the decision was mulled over.  But as the one on the team in charge of the op spoke, the rigger snapped back to reality.  Smirking, she chimed in.

"Nico says tires can take it, and I can do it.  Take the cannons on the back and cover my six, ready when hall are."

Gripping the road tightky, her persona scanned the cameras for olacement, charting her route to get them safely out...with as little resistance as possible...

Yelena smiles. "Cannons in back?  Yelena not use before but how hard.  Pull trigger and watch explosions, no?" She goes to the rear of the van and straps into the seat that controls the autocanons.
