Panther was only following the conversation with half her attention, as the rest was focusing on the machine in front of her.
"The last time I've seen something this old was at university," she said, "and that was in history of the deck."
She looked at the tech guy.
"Just give me an admin access to the bloody thing and we're good," she said, "I need to find a couple of things.  And no funny business.  It might be old stuff, but I know enough about decks to follow what you're doing."

The tech guy look at Panther, "never used that thing, only the boss has access to to it. Do as you like with it, I don't care." then he went to the bookshelf.  "Here take these, as far as i know, this is the only way to get something out." and through a box with datachips in Panther's general direction.

Almost.
 8d6.hits(5) → [5,1,5,1,3,1,1,6] = (3)
The surest sign that intelligent life exists somewhere in the Universe is that it has never tried to contact us.

The box with Chips slips trough both of your hands and splatter down on the floor. With a loud crack the class splinters and breaks leaving a burst of chips flying all around the place of impact.

"all that is recorded with this is stored on chips, these should be all the recordings Boss man has made." Tom said looking at the mess he had just created. "as far as i know no one has ever repaired the memory on that thing, so these are the only way to store any footage." A long stare in the direction to the door is followed by a simple "Can I go now?"

Roll perception to find the chips that you need to check. any of them could be the one you are searching, if it was stored here with the others.

"Just fracking great," Panther muttered as the chips went all over the place.  She went looking for the chips and she took those she thought she would need.

Then she took one of the syringes she had in a special pocket, approached the man from behind and plunged it in.
"Lael shot," she said to the others, "that way he won't remember us.  Now let's see what we need to get those chips to play."



OOC:
if I need to roll something to get that syringe into him, let me know.  Otherwise I go with surprise.

Perception to find the correct chip.
intiution 4 + perception 3 + looking 2 =9 (9d6.hits(5)=5)

Also, what do I need to read those chips.  Can I do that on my commlink (maybe with a small hardware modification).  If it's a reader, I just take it out of the big server and leave it here.  The idea is that I want to read those chips a bit later, when we're far from here.

Panther used her chance for surprise well, just as the man focused his attention on Ahuechei a srynge struck hi in the neck. it took only a second for hi to collapse in a memory erasing sleep.

You notice that there are no more Caretakers shadowy figure hovering above you, then you notice the sound of sirens approaching you. seems the party has come to an end.

Perception roll to judge distance and time for them to arrive.
every hit will give you extra 3 CT time period before the Police arrive
the formula goes like 5 + hit's x 3 CT
the highest roll count as you will defiantly tell the others right?

I'm assuming Rafa hears first with a roll like this: Perception, audio (11d6.hits(5)=6)

Rafa's razor sharp hearing not only alarmed the team, but also gave away on the numbers approaching. His best guess would be 3 different vehicles.
Now it's decision time, the pile of looted Weapons and cred sticks and coms is quite big, if only he had somewhere to put it all.

Quote from: OOC
Basically now is your looting progress, you would have to judge the value, notice some modifications on weapons, judge the look of a person to know ho has more Nuyen on his credstick and of course have some Intel on the different comlinks these strangers have brought to the party.

For weapons roll Pistol skill, or any relevant knowledge skill
For Comlinks roll hardware or any relevant knowledge skill
for Credsticks roll edge + edge,
on a side note if you find a way to carry everything you will have 15 pistols + 20 comlinks + buch of cred-sticks. would Rafa slow himself down with that?

I will give you the list in OOC after these rolls are made.

On the distance: still others can beat that, hard but possible :)
for now you have 23 CT or 1 min and 9 sec before the Police force arrives.

Panther was gathering the chips when Rafa announced the imminent arrival of the cops.  She quickly finished the job.
"Okay, let's get out of here," she said, "I have all the chips.  Just need to check them out, but we'll do that somewhere quiet.

intuition 4 + perception 3 + audio enhancers 2 =9 (9d6.hits(5)=2)
I'm after Rafa here, so I'll go with the fact that he warns us.

Rafa swiped his tag eraser over the credsticks he found and stuffed them in his pockets. These things were pretty much meant to be untraceable, it was the only reason people still used 'em, so he figured they'd be safe. Weapons, on the other hand, he didn't trust so much; especially the ones he didn't know who they belonged to or what they'd been used for.
"Panther, you got a use for a bunch of commlinks? I could swipe a couple from these people here if you want 'em. Oh, and you guys wanna use the front exit, or we leaving over roof? I could probably manage to get a line to another roof or down into the alley."

Not even gonna bother rolling, Rafa knows he doesn't really know. ;)

"Leave them," Panther said, "it would only slow us down.  Unless you know that one of them is a high exective."
She really didn't need a whole bunch of of the shelf commlinks with random crap on it.
"Now we just have to make sure this thing doesn't work again," she said, drawing her pistol and pointing it at the server.  A couple of shots in strategic locations made sure that it wouldn't... ever.  She grabbed the syringe she had used and moved out of the room.

"Let's take the roof and the back alley," She said to the rest of the team, "unless this place has an emergency fire exit going into that back alley.  In front there are probably a bunch of people who were in the club, and I'd rather not have them see my face at the moment."

"On it.", Rafa said, dropping the commlinks he had gathered and rushing towards the roof -chameleon wear active- to check out the surroundings.

As Panther was coming out of the office, she noticed Rafa running up the stairs, stopping for a brief moment at the old roof access then jumping halfway there and vanishing trough the hole in the ceiling.

On the roof nothing had changed, at least not on the first sight, there were no police here, at least not yet and there were no spirits guarding it. Most likely Caretakers doing, as the Magical police should be here already.

Rafa looked for the best place to get away quickly and quietly.

Perception (active) (14d6.hits(5)=7)
Added +3 active, was planning perception to spot a good and quiet place before you asked. 3 dice less is 3 hits less for this roll.
