Outside the guard grabs a stun baton and the secretary pulls out a gun, both of them target Ayato. Kynos knocks out the door with apparently no effort and a smoke fills the control room.  Some sort of air vortex rocks that hot smoke and is making beautiful shapes and forms, hiding and appearing all over around Kynos. Irris dashes out of the room, looking for her weapon.

[Jack_Spade]

Kynos had trouble concentrating. He didn't like that. Neither did he like the prospect of losing against some specter. If only he could concentrate. He knew that a HE grenade would destroy the loot as well as kill the remaining rigger. But when in doubt kill the easier enemies first.

With a few quick steps he stumbled out of the smoke filled room, recentered his rifle and instead shot a full salvo at the other enemy who was just pulling a gun.

[Ennui]

Irris flies out of the room.  One handed she picks up the shotgun from where Hanzo had let it fall the other bringing a puffer up to her mouth and she takes a long deep pull off of it.

[gilga]

Irris quickly gets her gun in time to knock the guard off, in the meantime Kynos shoots the secretary. You look at each other, tense moments pass but it does seem like the specter disappeared. In other floors of the building people start running, either away toward the building, or towards Nova security. Probably, misinformed about your  firepower - as the people that dash toward you are nothing more than lightly armed security guards. Outside Wheely starts seeing commotion as many people exist the nearby buildings and a massive traffic jam begins to form. If the rest will not be out soon, it will be difficult to leave the place with a car.

[Jack_Spade]

"Let's get a move on. Get the rigger and the loot, I'll cover you." Kynos had felt the spirit leaving as his mind cleared up again. What luck that he had shot the mage responsible for the spirit. Geek the mage first - words to live and survive by.
As this was done, he quickly patted down the guard and the mage, pocketing any obvious commlinks, ammo and weapons, making sure they were switched off. "Maybe this will tell us a bit about what's going on here."

That done Kynos reloaded his rifle and opened the door to the emergency exit stairs, making sure they were clear.

[Kuirem]

The little drone managed to get out before the rush of people and got back safely on his rack in the car. Back in his body Wheely stand ready for the incoming of his mates, worrying about the growing circulation. The car has already changed color and license plate during the mess.

[Ennui]

Meet us at the entrance Wheels.

I grab the gear and the rigger and fireman carry him out the door to the waiting vehicle.  No need for stealth at this point.

[Stuttrboy]

Ayato sheaths his sword and helps carry gear to the car, watching for any astral presences.

[Kuirem]

As soon as he notice his companions getting out of the building Wheely go back to VR to control the car. Once his companions are all aboard he (mentally) step on the gas immerse the car in the dense traffic.


Driving! 13d6t5 2
Damn close to a glitch  thanksfully the Control Rig reduce the threshold of a test by 2 so even a Hard or Extreme test should be fine.


Barely dodging a motorcycle he tries to put one kilometer between them and the building before changing plate, color and ID of the car using the cover of the traffic and for extra safety run the tag eraser. He does the same one more kilometer later and only get out of the circulation once he is confident enough that there are no pursuers.

[Jack_Spade]

Kynos was the last one to enter the car and hadn't closed the door completely before Wheely hit the gas pedal and made the car surge forward.
"Ok, can someone direct connect to the rigger and tell him to log out before his connection gets scrambled by the auto doc and he gets dumpshocked?"
The car was hopelessly overcrowded and Kynos had to awkwardly climb over Irris and Ayato to get into a more or less comfortable position.
"First things first, we have to deactivate all wireless signals from our loot. Get started."
With that Kynos began to hand out the collected gear to his two co-chummers.

[Ennui]

I direct connect to the RCC and warn the rigger, then get busy deactivating the wireless signal on the loot.


Does that need any rolls?

[gilga]

@Irris Ayato Kynos, wheely  - you run faster than security guards, at least you think hope you do. Several tense moments and you are at your ride guards dashing after you. Wheely quickly speeds up and avoids most of the traffic jam. It takes a few minutes and you are on the clear, sort of. You cannot get too far from Luna as the Rigger will be disconnected and dump shocked, at his state he may not survive it.  When Irris direct link to the RCC she receives the following message:
Host is trying to kill me - I am hanging in there but I am link locked, I cannot keep in for much longer. You have to think fast, Wheely can already see the security icons of rotor drones and doberman's that are closing in on you.

To disable the RCC's you can either damage them or hack them, there is no way to turn them off in the time frame you have. Ture with an hardware kit you can dismantle their power source but it is going to take long minutes, 10 perhaps 20, and somebody is going to be shooting you before that as distances in the city are relatively short.
Wheely can try and evade, but it is difficult while having online traceable hardware.

[Jack_Spade]

"That's really a fragged situation. But he is inside a R6 Valkyrie Module. It should be able to stabilize him - especially if I give him a bit Kamikaze to shore up his mind and body.
But to mitigate this we could try another crazy solution: We give the rigger a trode net and connect it to another VR enabled link or deck. When we disconnect him from the RCC that should keep him inside the matrix, avoiding dump shock."

Kynos fished a dose of Kamikaze from his pockets. "So what do you say? Worth a try, eh?

Oh wait, I have an even better idea."

Quickly, Kynos called Sovereign:
<<Hey we have a little situation here. Could you just send over one of your spellcaster spirits that can heal? We have a rigger lying around, that if disconnected from the matrix may suffer some heavy dumpshock. Love Kynos.>>

[Mercy Merchant]

Simone is jarred awake by a buzzing her ear.  Sitting up she reaches around for the sound and finds a meta in her bed partner's clothes that just happen to be near her head.  She grabs it and reaches over to gently shake the mage awake.  "Hey, scary guy, your meta is pinging.  It might be important.  Here" 

She bends forward a bit and hands him the 'link as she runs a hand down his chest and sighs.  **I could get used to seeing him in the bed.  I wonder if he was serious about that maybe?  Naaah.  Probably not, right?  Who else ever has?  Don't let yourself be hurt too much.**

[Mulcarn]

Awakening to the sound of Simone's voice, and irritatingly enough, his comm.  Maxwell grudgingly sat upward to reach for the proffered meta that buzzed incessantly.  Reading through the message and time stamp did erase most of his displeasure from being awoken earlier than intended.  Largely leaving him dumbfounded though.  "Has it really only been a few hours?  I could have swore it was night outside.  I guess I probably shouldn't drink and do drugs at the same time.  Might not be a wise course of action all things considered.  So I essentially took a half-hour nap while thinking the whole day had gone by.  Did Simone and I even have sex or did I dream that?"  Looking away, he comes to terms and grasps the fact that the two are indeed nude in bed with each other.  Perhaps after all they did spend an hour at least getting to know the other in more than one lewd fashion.

Trying his luck he turns to Simone and brazenly gives her a kiss.  Lovingly tonguing the confines of her mouth as a way of thanks for being his sleeping partner.  Maxwell rolls over to where his legs entwined with hers and his head lay rested beneath her bust.  Listening to the sounds of her heartbeat, he closed his eyes again.  Concentrating on leaving his body like a butterfly leaves it's cocooned husk.  Maxwell projects himself outside the swampy astral space to call forth a spirit suited for aid.  "A dream of another existence.  You wish to die.  A dream of another world.  You pray for death.  To release the soul one must die.  To find peace inside one must get eternal.  I am a mortal, but am I human?  How beautiful life is now when my time has come.  A human destiny, but nothing human inside.  What will be left of me when I'm dead?  There was nothing when I lived.  What you've found is eternal death.  No one will ever miss you."

I'll call him Nekros.


The spirit fought hard to resist Maxwell's summoning attempt.  Causing painful psychic backlash to wrack his body as he channeled the mana necessary to force the spirit into servitude.  But the mage fought harder to enthrall it and was successful.  Traveling back into his body, he slothfully grabs his link' and sends a message back.

@Kynos - <<I've called forth a spirit that should be able to help.  Except, I have garnered but only one service from him.  And with my spirits being extremely ornery of late, I'll need you to send me your exact location and wait there for me to help.  Preferably in a spot without public eye.>>

Tossing aside the commlink, Maxwell gets comfortable laying next to Simone's breasts.  While waiting for a response back, naughty thoughts formulate within the mage's head.  Placing one her breasts in his mouth, he delicately nurses the tender pink flesh as he strums two fingers up and down her slit.
