You pass through through the wall near the front ntrance and peek through.  There are four metahumans at the table with varying amounts of cyber  based on location and your assensing you would guess they are your typical muscle.  Past them is a hallway.  A room off to the side has a few more sitting at what you imagine are some kind of electronics.  Probably a guard room,  Down the hallway is a set of stairs that ends in a force 5 ward that you cannot seem to bypass without alerting the mage who erected it.

Once she has reached the ward, Sky gets back to her meat. Since the main point of this scouting is to stay stealthy, she doesn't want to alert anyone. There, she gets up to take a beer, wondering about what she should do now. After a while though, she decides to play it safe and to stop here for now. No matter what she tried, she would probably have to take too many risks, and would almost certainly be seen.

She waits for Gunderson to be alone, and available for a talk, then joins him to his table "I got some results. Please don't tell me what this is all about, it's probably much more troubles than I want." She shakes her head "The first place has no overt magical defences, a team of four security goons with some cyber. There's a room in the basement, but its entrance is blocked by a ward. In the second locations, there are a lot of low level spirits patrolling the ground. And when I say the lot, I mean a frakking lot, almost sixty of them. I estimate at least thirty to thirty-five summoners. The spirits are patrolling in a half-mile radius of the place. In the third one, there are two to three patrols in the field at all times, and I'm pretty sure the office is protected by a ward."

She takes a mouthful of beer, then concludes "I could try to learn more, but I don't have what would be needed to allow me to be as sure as possible that I wouldn't be spotted. So..." She shrugs.

[Stuttrboy]

You zip through the astral mentally preparing your report.  You return to The Next Round and prepare to settle back into your body when you realize it is no longer there!  You glance around the room but every things is otherwise normal.

Sky looks around for a second, trying to make sure she didn't make any mistake, and didn't remember at which table she is. Then, realising what must have happened, she quickly starts to panic. She summons a spirit to help her search for her body, vowing the first thing she'll do once back in her body is to murder the bitch.


Summon Guardian [4] (Summon, resist, drain): 12d6t5 5 4d6t5 2 10d6t5 3 Two services due to limit, 1S drain
Assensse (Guardian): 8d6t5 5
Assensse (+2 Guardian): 9d6t5 4, for the Assenssing + Intuition (1 hour) extended test to find her body, threshold depending on how far the body is, and how well protected it is.

[Stuttrboy]

You draw on the energy of your spirit and together you expand your senses to the limit searching for your body.  You've only been gone a short time, not even two hours you have plenty of time.  At least, that's what you keep telling yourself as you feel the panic rise up in you.  After an hour of searching you have a general idea of the direction your body is in, but it will take more time to get a better idea. 

I moved your meat for you.  You are so absorbed in your search you did not notice that Scout is standing just behind you.  You really shouldn't just leave that lying around just anywhere you know.  People could do all sorts of things.

[Imladir]

[Zyanya "Sky" Rivero - October 13^th - The astral]

Sky answers with a snarl, not stopping for one moment "I'll kill you. I'll fragging end you, bitch."


Assensse (Guardian): 7d6t5 0
Assense: 6d6t5 2

[Stuttrboy]

I doubt it.  Besides I did you a favor.  You have learned a valuable lesson about leaving important things lying about.

She glances over toward Gunderson and says, Oh chill out you cranky old fart.  She doesn't want my help anyway.  Do you Sky?  Do you want my help?

Yeah, yeah, she says over her shoulder.

[Imladir]

[Zyanya "Sky" Rivero - October 13^th - The astral]

Sky doesn't answer while she continues to look for her body.


Assense (Guardian): 6d6t5 4
Assensse (+2 Guardian): 7d6t5 3

[Stuttrboy]

You have it!  You grab onto the tether that connects you to your body and zip along heading through the astral headlong.  You hear Scout's cheers for you as you speed away.

You come to a familiar building and a familiar room and find your body laying in a familiar bed.  You settle back into your body and see that Scout has even tucked you in to your own bed in your apartment.

[Imladir]

[Zyanya "Sky" Rivero - October 13^th - The Barrens]

Sky jumps out of her bed. She looks around for a moment, then, apparently deciding on something, starts to pack what little she has in a backpack. Then, backpack on her back, she starts to pedal, heading towards Isac's clinic. After a kilometre or so, she stops, and sends a message to Gunderson.

>>You know why I chose to do your recon from that table? That's simple: it was just in front of you. You didn't even have to turn your head to see me, and I thought 'Hey, I'm doing Gunderson's job, surely he'll make sure nothing happens. Plus, I trust him.'. Yeah...<< She laughs curtly >>How naive of me, of course, I see that now. I should have remembered gringos can't be trusted. I could have died with that drek, thanks. I've changed my mind: don't bother asking me for jobs, I don't want them. In fact, you know what? Just forget about me.<<

With the message sent, she starts a format of the 'link and drops it in the wayside. Then, already feeling lighter, she goes all the way to Isac.

[Stuttrboy]

You arrive at Isac's around noon and catch him as he was leaving the clinic.  Hey Sky.  I was just about to grab lunch.  You hurt, or do you want to join me?

[Imladir]

[Zyanya "Sky" Rivero - October 13^th - The Barrens]

Sky shrugs "Nothing that you can heal. Where to?"

[Stuttrboy]

I was just going to the Stuffer Shack.  Are you okay you seem...I don't know, frazzled.  Let's get out of here and get some real food and sit down.  Once in the car he starts driving and continues.  Okay, spill it.  What happened, you seem resolved yesterday...now you look the opposite of it.

Isac's Com pings at him but he ignores it.  He's looking at you expectantly.

[Imladir]

[Zyanya "Sky" Rivero - October 13^th - The Barrens]

Sky laughs harshly "Oh no, I'm still decided. But I suppose you're right too, in speaking about opposites. I'm leaving. Here at least, probably Seattle too. I came say goodbye."

[Stuttrboy]

Running from your problems again?  Were you just saying you were needed here?
